Hon. John Wannamaker, Philadelphia 3
distinguished citizen, says the Philadelphia
Press, has been setting the State on fire by
series of speeches against the Quay ma.
chine. He has shown how it has dominat-
ed the State Legislature and how, through
favored banks, it has used for its own pur-
pose the moneys of the State. Its control
of the Legislature has enabled it to levy IN
ceasing tribute on the great interests OF the
State, which, in fear of hostile legislation,
are always willing to pay blackmail. Its
ownership of complasant State treasurers
has made the State balance of several mil
lion dollars subject to the draft OF promi-
nent politicians by the easy process of hav
ing it dumped first into an accommodating
bank as a State deposit

In a recent magazine article, Hon. John
G. Carlisle makes a strong argument against
the acquisition of new possessions by the
government. He argues that our political
institutions were not designed and, conse
quently, are not suited for the government
OF dependent colonies and provinces. The
Philippine islands, for instance, with pop.
uation of eight or ten millions, must, IN.
less we violate the organic law of the land
and hold and govern them perpetually as
conquered provinces, be erected within
reasonable time into several States, each
with two Senators, and altogether thirty or
forty Representatives. But the policy of
imperialism will not stop here, Mr.. Carlisle
thinks. 1--WE will almost certainly go on"
says he, sunless checked by the armed op.
position of other powers, until we have
fastened upon the United States black and
yellow horde of conscript citizens to de-
bauch the suffrage and sap the foundations
of our free institutions

PLAIN TALK.

A dispatch, dated October II, to a London
news agency from Paris says: To-day the
conference reached crisis for the first time.
Judge Day presented the demands of the
American commissioners in threatening
words.
"He said that delay was the only possible
object attainable by the persistent efforts of
the Spanish commissioners TO saddle the
United States with the Cuban debt and
would be tolerated no longer, as the United
States would neither assume nor guarantee
any part of the debt.
The Spaniards replied that this placed
spain In position of repudiating or of re.
ducing the face value of the Cuban bonds
from 81 to 90 per cent, paying only half the
stipulated interest on the reduced value
Before they would adopt either alternative
they would surrender to the United States
the entire Philippines.
Judge Day responded that the surren.
der of the Philippines would probably be
demanded irrespective of the Cuban or any
other debt
"Tais, To the Spanards the first intima-
ton OF the intentions of the United States
as to the Philippines, resulted in a whis.
pered conference, followed by request for
an adjournment in order to communicate
with Madrid. Judge Day said that Presi
dent Mckinley had instructed him to de.
mand the entire surrender of Porto Rico
Tuesday, and the delivery of every town on
the island to the United States officers be-
fore midnight, together with the evacuation
of Havana on or before November 1, when
the United States would be at the gates of
the city ready to take possession.
"There was no alternative offered in the
case of either OF these demands, and the ses.
sion consequently was brief. The American
commissioners have received dispatches from
Washington indicating that the administra
ton is irritated and indignant over the de
lay of the Spanish commissioners.

VIII Bring McCIammey Back.

Great Falls. Dec. 1s.-Apparently the
matter for which J. T. McClammey is
under arrest at Salt Lake City is quite
serious. AS stated in yesterdays

According to report. McClammey. on

tween the two a week prior e the
hold-up. and in IL McClammey had de-
cidedly the best of 1t.
An accident is reported from Shelby
which very nearly proved fatal. Anton
Anderson was riding a colt one day last
week. when the reins became entangled
with the hammer of his revolver. which
he was wearing in his hip pocket.
Without looking to discover how the
reins were caught. he gave them a
jerk, lifting the hammer of the gun
and exploding a cartridge. The ball
passed down through his hip and then
through the saddle and int the colt.
Anderson is now under the care Of a
surgeon, but the ball has not yet been
found,

Small DELINQUENT List.

Great Falls. Dec. 1s.-The amount Of
taxes collected this year by the county
treasurer prior to the day on which the
penalty attached. was s242. 1851. This
means a deficiency of only about IS. 500.
the least which has occurred for sew
eral years. The reason that no exact
figures on this last amount can be
given is that the city has rot placed a
total upon the amount OF its taxes to
be collected. The total charged by the
county was $3.50, 626.61, and the city
treasurer has estimated that only about
81. 500 of the city's taxes is delinquent.
This makes a total delinquency Of
about $40, 900, OF which $500 belongs to
the county. This state of affairs is
very creditable to the county and to the
tax collector.

A SHEEP SHED BURNED.
supposed to Have Been the Work of n
Discharged EmpIoye.

Great Falls. Dec. 1s.-People who ar
rive in town this evening from Okla,
state that a sheep shed and 25 tons
of hay at that place belonging to Bow
er Bros OF Stanford. were set on fire
and completely destroyed on Friday
night. Loss. about 81, 200: no insurance.
About IL O'Clock at night a masked
mar entered the room in the shed oc-
cup,ed by the herder and a boy. He
was armed inc ordered them to turn
out, an order which they obeyed
promptly, IL not cheerfully. He then
forced them at the point of the gun to
bring out hay and other combustible
material and heap it up against the
side of the shed and finally to set IL
on fire. When the flames had gained
sufficient headway. he left them to get
the sheep out. which they barely sue
ceeded in doing. 1t is believed that the
masked man was a former employe of
the ranch, who had been discharged and
who was actuated by spite. Sheriff
Waite is on the scene and every eff
fort will be made to discover and pun
ish the perpetrator of the crime.

POLICE MATTERS.
Thieves Are Cleaning Out Chicken Coops
ON the south Side.

on Inc SOutn Siue.
Great Falls. Dec. 1S.-With Christ
mas comes a demand for fowl of all
kinds and to supply that demand there
seem to be people in this community
who do not hesitate to help themselves
from their neighbors' coops. One place
on the south side has been cleaned out
twice in the past two weeks and the
reports are of like nature from the
north side. AS the police force Is ex-
ceedingly limited and the amount of
territory which can be covered by them
Is in proportion. IL behooves every man
who has feathered personal property
to see hat Il is securely LOCKED up at
night. Dead hen and turkeys are diff
ficult of Identification, and after the
fowls are q stolen the owners may
as well give them up as lost forever.
There was only n arrest last night
and to-day. That vas August Berg
strom. He and a companion got on a
little drunk last night and made the
round of society o creating a dis
turbance wherever they went. Finally
at a colored joint Bergstrom knocked
the woman down as she opened the
door m then he fell into the arms of
officer Bissett. He made a little resist
ance, but was finally convinced that he
was better to go along and arrived
at the station in a somewhat battered
condition. He put up SO bail for APP
pearance tomorrow morning.
