The reported conversion of Ex-
Senator PETER to republicanism is
not causing hallelujahs of praise to
come from the g. o. p. band wagon
But the expression is quite the op-
posite. An Iowa editor voices this
sentiment by saying: "Mr. Peffel
is nothing, if not pestiferous blath-
erskite, and his return to the repub-
lican ranks is calamity the party
does not deserve He is a time
server, feather headed, blatant, ir-
responsible shyster who has long
been a nonenity in congress in point
of influence or value to his state
His recent conversion is sham af-
fected in the hope of regaining Of
fee or share in the spoils.' This
is hot one on PETER.

A we'll authenticated rumor comes
from Great Falls that a certain
clerical gentleman, we'll known to
our readers, was caught in the act of
administering midnight attentions to
the wife of another, the latter stand
ing high in the society of the town.
The wife was exported to her maid
en- home in the east, and the distin-
guished rector was given brief
time in which to decamp. The
Great Falls papers didn't say any
thing about it, thinking it would not
look we'll in print. But while omit
ting all personalities the HERALD
does not believe in shielding that
goldfish aristocracy, which is clad in
the scarlet cloak of iniquity.

The German ambassador at Wash
ington, who protested to Secretary
Day against the comments of the
American press on the German gov
ernment must have very limited
comprehension of the character and
spirit of American institutions.
What did he expect Secretary Day
or the administration to do about itf
They are given no censorship of the
press, and the courts of the country
are as open to the ambassador as they
are to the secretary of state or the
president. There is no such offence
as "majestabeleidegung' in this

NEIHART, MONTANA. JUNE 10, 1899.

A new process for hardening steel
has been discovered by Thomas A.
Edison, Jr., according to the patent
record. 1t is claimed that the new
process renders 6inch plate treat
ed by 1t superior in the matter of re-
sistance to a 15-inch plate Harvey
lied or treated by the Krupp pro,
cess, while costing less than one
half as much as the Harvey process;
that it differs with the latter process
in that it permeates the whole thick
ness of iron and not merely shell
of an inch or so at the surface. Ii
may also be applied to copper, the
hardening of which was considered a
lost art. 1t may be used for pre-
pairing armor as we'll as machinery
A razor hardened by it last summer
still retains its edge, and glass hard
ened by the process cannot be
scratched by diamond. A COM
pany has been incorporated to ex,
plot the new discovery.
