THAT Columbus fellow who claims to
be Republican, switched off from his
grievances against his party, and turned
his attention, last week, to the ''inksling
er" of THE News. As before he sought q
Democratic paper to display his compost
ton. He makes certain statements which
may be true, but which may easily be con-
sidered otherwise, as he gives no clue to
his identity, as he fears to give his name,
but allows himself to cowardly sneak be-
hind little star, the brightness of which
sinks into insigniicance in the light of his
fiery production. One thing is to his cred
it-he did not use the signature ''Repub-
lican. Perhaps some day he will get
brave enough to give his real name. I'm
til then, however, he will continue to
twinkle, twinkle, little STAR"

railroad company to appeal the case to a

their credit not to do so. What grounds

plain to be seen; certainly not excessive

$1,000 would have been none too much.

American Acquisition Of Cuba.

Purely sectional or political interests
were in control when the acquisition of
Cuba and of Canada was discussed at
different times during the Is years prior
to the civil war. 1t was mainly a strug-
gle for the balance of power in the
United State senate. Some of the wis.,
est public men inc the early part Of
this century had believed that Cuba
should be annexed at the first oppor-
tunfty. Jefferson thought Ii desira BILE
because 1t could De defended without
a navy. In 1929 John Quincy Adams
as secretary of state declared that Porto
Rico and Cuba were natural append
had become an object of transcendant
litical interests of our union. He be-
lieved that 1t would naturally gravitate
to the United States when released
from Spain. Polk ~endeavored in vain
to purchase 1t. After the election of
Pierce the democrats made its acquisi-
ton one of their chief aims. They tried
negotiation, but when that gave no
promise of success they threatened and
argued themselves into believing That
we had a right to seize the island If
Spain would not sell IL. In 1853 Sena-
tor Hale of New Hampshire called for
extension northward, for a change, and

ii about time people who make criminal

taught to have some respect for the

WHO PAYS THE INSPECTOR
The City Says the Street Railroad
Company Should.
NO SAYS THE COMPANY
There's a Chanc for an Argument and
the Matter May Have to be Taken
Into Court to Fir Out
Which Side Is Right.

A slight friction has arisen between
the city of Butte and the street railroad
company as to who shall pay the sal
airy of the paving inspector who is
watching the paving now being lone
by the street railroad company.
When the street railroad company be-
gan paving about a month ago Louis
Hette was appointed by the engineers
Office to see that the work is properly
done. Or July l MI. Hette sent In his
bill to the city for s43, being for 1oa4
days work at 81 per day. The mayor
handed the bill to one of the city's col
lectors and sent it around to the Office
of the street railroad company for col
lection. The street railroad company
declined to pay the bill until such t,'1e
as the city authorities can show some
ordinance requiring them to pay for an
inspector they had not hired.
The bill of $43 might seem at first TO
be a trivial matter. but il will be a
pretty important matter before the sum-
mer is over. for the salary of tie in
spector of the work of the street rail-
road ccmpeny will amount 10 a good
many hIndrec dollars. The city au-
thorities claim that the street railroad
company should pay all the cost of paw
ing between its tracks and for 1--WE feet
on either side of the track, as required
by ordinance, and they claim hat the
salary of the inspector is a legitimate
part of :he expense of paving the tracks.
The street railroad people argue. OH
the Other L.and, hat they don't want
this inspector and haven't hired him.
They have ar inspector of their own
who watches to see that the work Is
done all right and he is paid by the
| street railroad company. They argue
that If the city is not satisfied with the
street railroad company's inspector and
want one of their own. the city should
pay his salary. They argue that he is
in the employ of the city and not of the
street railroad company, was hired by
the city and should be paid by him.
The city authorities say that there must
be a city inspector to see that the work
is done right, for an inspector appointed
by the street railroad company will nat
urally inspect to the advantage of the
rather than to the advantage
of the city. The city proposes to pay Mr..
Hette's salary right along. but collect
from the street railroad company II II
Is able to enforce payment. II is claimed
that last fall the street railroad com
pany paid the salary of the paving in
spector appointed by the city to watch
the street railroad work, Dut III snoulu
be remembered that the company at
that time was looking for some fran
chises, while at present it has all the
franchises Ii can we'll handle.
The question of who shall pay Hettes
salary is likely to be argued at to-mor-
row nights council meeting. but IL is
not thought that a very wide breach
will be created.
