Americans Kept Busy.
I'VE have Cabu, Ilolo and Sulu, together
with Manila and Cavite. The army has
its hands full keeping the rebels off from
Manila and vicinity. In Panay there is a
large number of Tagalos, the leaders of
the insurrection, who are armed. The ma
tives seem to have lots of arms and NUM-
tons of war, especially in Luzon. The sup
plies come down the Cagayan from China
and Japan, 1t is thought, but no move is
made TO stop it. The rebels have a thor

archipelago
Manila is full of business and embryo
business waiting for the raising of the
money to pay duties, which are said to be
excessive. / have had several offers, as
have a few others aboard, to take positions

living expenses out here don't amount to

cal, but money just flows like water. There
are bar rooms galore, and they are coming

SEVERAL MILES LONG
Addresses by Hon. Lee Mantle and
Hon. A. F. Bray-Display of
Fireworks, Etc.

AS though the ink of the signatures to
hardly yet dry, Butte celebrated the
Fourth yesterday. A record was made
which no town in the state can nope to
equal. 1t was a great celebration, and
much powder was burned to the glory OF
our greatness. The observance began
early on the night of the 3rd and contin-
ued until late this morning. Early Mon
day afternoon the city donned it's holiday
raiment, and decorations could not have
been more elaborate had the occasion
been in honor of a visit to the city of Adj
miral Dewey. Thousands of yards Of
bunting, in a myriad of patriotic con-
ceits, adorned the buildings of the city.
OF the pictures displayed, the great
American wal lord of the seas was very
prominent, evidently ranking close in the
hearts of the Butte people to Washing
ton and Lincoln.
The parade, which was one of the big
features of the day, began shortly after
10 O'Clock, under the marshalship of Major
w. e. Deeney, and the route was long
and complete, affording the vast crowds
along the line of march ample OppOrtu-
nifty for witnessing the pageant. The
order of march was as follows:
Marshal Deeney and aides, platoons of
police, fife and drum corps, Meagher
guards, Parochial school cadets, Knights
of Pythias, Shoshone Tribe of Red Men,
Alice band, Benevolent Protective Order
of Elks, United Commercial Travellers,
Canadian institute. Royal Neighbors Of
America, Modern Woodmen of America,
Christoforo Colombo society, Butchers
union, Grccers' band, Mexican Wan Vet
erans. Grand Army Of the Republic, car
of state, Ladies' Fourth of July commit
tee in carriages, orator Of the day and
chairman Of the executive committee,
Creation association, Society of st. John
the Baptiste, Copper Hill band, county
officers in carriages, citizens in carriages,
labor leaders in carriages, fire chief,
Butte fire department, mayor, aldermen
and city officials, business floats, b. & NJ.
and B. & B. ball clubs. and Sol Levy's
Indians. None of the labor organizations
participated. The United Commercial

GRAFTON OF HON. LEE MANTLE.

We are gathered today to commemorate
the 123rd anniversary of the signing of the
Declaration Of Independence, to the read
ing of which we lave just listened. That
document is the broadest and most COM
prehensive bill of human rights, the
grandest chart of human liberty ever
drawn by human hand. 1t is the product
of the splendid genius and mighty intel
lect of Thomas Jefferson, and its pro-
mitigation marked the beginning of the
most successful struggle for human lib
erty that the world has ever known.
The Fundamental principles embodied
in the Declaration of Independence are
that all men are created equal; that gov
ernmentS derive their best power from
the consent of the governed; that all hu-
man governments are installed for the
sole purpose Of securing the welfare and
happiness Of the governed, and that all
men, no matter what their condition in
life, whether sprung from a palace or
hovcl, whether clad in fine raiment or
wearing the homely garments of toll
that all men, high and low, rich and poor,
are endowed with the inalienable rights
to life, liberty and the pursuit of happi-
ness.
But it is not alone in the magnificent
platform of principles which it embodied,
that the Declaration of Independence was
remarkable. It's PRONUNCIATION marked
a new era in the history of the world. 1t
opened a new and virgin page in the life
of mankind; it vas the inception Of a
better, a higher and nobler manhood than
had yet been witnessed, for it proclaimed
the birth of a new nation, dedicated and
co%nsecrated to liberty-a nation whose
progress and achievements We're yet to
compel the establishment and command
the admiration and wonder of the civil
lied earth.
The story of the American revolution Is
familiar to all. 1t is one of intense inter-
est, for it deals with all those memorable
events which preceded and surrounded
the founding of this mighty nation:
events which brought INTO full play all
that is purest and highest in human ma
ture. The history of that time forms
i'm many respects the most important
epoch in the history of the whole world.
because of the tremendous scope and
magnitude of the results which followed
and are still following in the development
of the nation then founded. The revolu-
ton brought upon the theater OF action 8
galaxy of heroes, statesmen n patriots
whose like had never been known. 1t de-
veloped a class of men whose devotion to
liberty was unassailable, whom no dan
ger could appal, whom no defeat could
d:scourage-a band of patriots who had

IA formation which confirms ru-
mors that have been in circu-
lation on shore for the past few
days to the effect that the Commission
ers are unable to agree among them
selves upon the final disposition Of
Tanu and Mataafa Commissioner FL
Tot has taken the high ground all along
that not only must Chambers decision
he declared binding upon the three
powers and the Samoan Government,
but that the boy King must be continued
in power. Chambers retained as Chief
Justice and Mataafa sent into exile.
Mr.. Tripp and Baron Sternburg have
acted in harmony up to this time, OBJ
jecting to anything further than the
sustaining of Chambers decision.
which they argue is made mandatory
by the treaty. They have insisted upon
the abolition OF the kingship and would
not consent to any punishment being
1neted out to Mataafa It took days
Of argument TO bring Eliot TO a point
where he would consent to the de-
thronement Of TanU but he was final
" won over. the result was accom-
plished and the proclamation was is
sued. not, however. without the clause
being incorporated into IT that the
Chief Justice was to be continued in
Office The proclamation being merely
preliminary to the final one. Messrs.
Trip ana Sternburg. it is said. have
been hopeful of securing further con-
cessions from Mr.. Eliot. which were to
be made public in their final edict. 1t
has been known, however. that since
June 10. the date the last proclamation
was issued. Justice Chambers. British
Consul Maxse and Conmissioner Eliot
have been comforting together a great
deal. and this fact. taken together with
the knowledge of the continued occupa-
ton Of Mulinuu by the Tanu people
when they should have been dispersed.
has led many to suspect that all is not
we'll with the High Commissioners, and
this is the reason why the Tanu people
so doggedly refuse to disperse from the
seat of government.
I just learn also that this morning
Justice Chambers presented to the
Commission a list Of names of white
people whom he wishes deported, and
that Eliot is expected to back him Up
in his request. The list is said to con-
tain the names Of the political enemies
Of Chambers and Maxse, who have diff
fered from them in their policy during
the recent troubles. It is needless TO
say that this last act of Chambers, on
what must be known to him as the eve
of his own removal, has caused tre-
mendous sensation. 1t is believed that
both Mr.. Tripp and Baron Sternburg
will positively refuse to accede to
Chambers request, and further that
they viii now take position which will
admit of no compromise. 1t is thought
that they will insist upon the removal
of Chambers and the immediate dis
persal of the Tanu adherents at Null
inuu, noncompliance with this COM
mand on the part of Tanu to be deemed
sufficient cause for his banishment
There is no doubt that Tanu and
Iamasese, in refusing to eYacuate
