s%ojourning in this state. For the resi-
dents of both cities h change in

The Copper City Limited will be a

new train good support.

FLIRTING BETWEEN DANCES.

From the Cleveland Leader.
The music had stopped and the dancers
were seated:
Across the big ballroom from me
/ saw a fair Made whose bare arms
were dimpled,
And sweet as a picture was she.
A something that went to my heart
seemed to strike me;
She looked for a moment, and then
Gazed down at the fan with which she
was toying
And presently glanced up again.
The dancing began; I looked over my
shoulder,
Her arm touched my sleeve, and her
glance
Met mine-my head swami heard NOT
the music,
And forgot all about how to dance.
AT last. oh. at last. a dear friend intro
duced US:
I heard not her name-'twas nothing to
me-
/ asked for the dance that was next on
the programme;
I'm engaged to my husband for that
one," said she.

In the Senate.

Z the senate yesterday there was no
suggestion of uproar. The days
experience is clearly set forth in
this mornings kilograms. So far from
coming together before shutdown, as
had been predicted Tuesday night. the
senate and house are pretty wide apart:
the distance cannot be easily meas
ured because the senate did not vote
yesterday. II has before IL two prop
ositions. and while the majority report
which eliminates recognition OF thd
present Cuban government-may pre-
vail. the minority report-which rec
ognizes Cuban independence and the
present government set up by the in
surgents-is getting eloquent advocacy.
The portion of this mornings report
of senate proceedings that summarizes
the speech OF Senator Foraker is deep
ly interesting and instructive. 1t sets
forth in terse discussion the views held
by the men in congress who believe
that the recognition of the government
set up by those whom we propose to
help to be free should be immediate.

He was under restraint yesterday. yet
he could not deny himself the satisfac-
ton of declaring that in the matter of
craftsmanship the president and vice
president OF Cuba compare favorably
with the president n vice president
of the United States. There are peo-

tempted to add that. I'm their opinion.
his remark Of Mr.. Foraker's is not
n handsome compliment to the presi-
dem of the republic of Cuba. Yester-
days little fling by Mr.. Foraker is a
companion piece for his recent answer
to one of his constituents who wrote
to him. saying hat he ought to stand
by President McKinley's policy. Il
would stand by the presidents views"
answered Foraker, IF I knew he had
any, and what they are"
However, these things are small talk
and immaterial; perhaps. in these Sc
rious times, they are out of character
in a federal senator. Nevertheless,
Senator Foraker's speech of yesterday
is one well worth careful reading In the
summarized form of this mornings
news. We may not all share his opinion
that the policy he advocates is the
wisest one-there is a wide difference
Of opinion among this ountry's intelli-
gent people. At any rate. the minority
plan in the senate gets strong presen-
tation i'm Mr.. Foraker's speech; and
some of his arguments will not be cas-
lily met and answered.

ing in Anaconda for an event that will
typify peace in one of its highest forms.
Early in May. at a date yet to be
named and that will suit the conven-
fence of Mrs. Hearst, the formal dedi-
cation of the Hearst Free library in
this city will occur. In anticipation of
that event a committee, of which Judge
Brantly is chairman. has been selected
TO represent the citizens of Anaconda,
and the members of this committee will
cooperate with the city council. The
serious work of arranging a programme
for dedication day has not yet been I'M
dertaken: the STANDARD learns that the
committee has been awaiting word
from Mrs. Hearst. whose preferences
and wishes will. of course. be needed.
At the same time, there is considerable
preparatory work to be attended to.
and the Standard directs the attention
of the members of the committee TO the
announcement of a meeting. to be held
at 4 o'clock this afternoon in the par
lors OF the Montana, which they are de-

The Copper City Limited.

~ LANS for the betterment of the
~ Northern Pacifc's service in
Western Montana involve an
innovation that goes into effect early
next month and that will be greatly
appreciated. The announcement is
that a new train will be added to the
daily service between Butte and Ham
ilton.
Incidentally Anaconda gets a compile
ment in the new service-the train will
be known as the Copper City Limited.
IL the schedule already proposed for
this new train goes into effect. the ar
rangement will be excellent i'm every
respect. Under II a train will leave
Butte at a convenient hour of the
conda and thence to Garrison, To Mis-
soula. where there will be no delay.
and then up the Bitter o valley
to Hamilton. II will be a through
train. avoiding the vexing changes
and delays at Garrison, and II will
make fast time.
We have just remarked that. Incl
dentally. Anaconda gets a compliment
in that the new train is to bear the
name of which this city is pardonably
proud. But there's a good Zeal more
in II than empty compliment; great
practical benefit will be the result for
this city and for Butte in the facilities
thus furnished for the rapid transit
TO a large market OF the valleys fruits
and vegetables and kindred supplies.
In town the advantage will be marked
for the farmers in the Bitter Roo val

THURSDAY, APRIL IA. 1895.
The House Vote.

~ THOUGH not without a dis
N graceful prelude, a resolution
was adopted in the house of
representatives yesterday which is close
ly like the one that had been agreed to
at the meeting of the house committee
held Tuesday night. rs presented in
yesterday mornings news. the resolu-
tion provided that the president shall
use the army and navy to restore peace
to the island Of Cuba and secure TO the
people a firm, stable and independent
government OF their own"
Before IL was submitted yesterday
this resolution was changed in a way
that may make a good deal Of differ
ence, in the end, If the resolution goes
into effect. The original resolution
broadly empowered the president. first.
to whip Spain by arms. and then, equal
ly by arms to secure to the Cubans a
government OF their own. In the form
in which it is adopted the resolution
provides for the whipping of Spain
inc then for a government established
by the free action of the people of
Cuba Under circumstances. this diff
ference might mean much. AS Is clear
10 those who have followed the curse
of events. President Mckinley was
strongly opposed to the present recogni-
tion Of Cuban Independence. That would
involve the recognition of the existing
government set up by the insurgents.
That government the president was
determined not to recognize. His stub
bornness in this explains why his mes
sage did not go to congress last week
he wanted time wherein TO labor with
h house majority and win IL to his
wish. In view of the presidents re-
markable conduct of the past ten days
there will be no lack of those whose be-
lief II will be that. when Cuba is free,
the president, under the house resolu-
ton, will carpet-bag Cub under the
dictates of sugar-trust magnates and
the rest of the corporate influences that
control his conduct. However. there are
men whom the country trusts who say
that the recognition of the existing gov
eminent on the island In unwise. In
discussion. yesterday. a senator quoted
General Lee as having given testimony
TO hat effect.
The disorderly conduct OF the house
during yesterdays preliminaries is dis
graceful. and the more inexcusable be-
cause there existed no division in sentl-
ment that warranted a disturbance.
The vote shows this-the house was
nearly unanimous in its action. MIR.
Myers OF Indiana and Mr.. Pearson Of
North Carolina couldn't let the occasion
BASS without a prize-ring style of in
terchange. Mr.. johnson OF Ohio was
obstreperous. Bartlett Of Georgia flung
q book at the head of a Pennsylvania.
The house was noisy and ~disorderly
enough to complete h spectacle OF a
fuli-grown disgrace. and IL would be
silly, as we'll as idle. TO attempt to urge
s~xfenuating pleas.
