SMALL SIZED RIOT.
Considerable Excitement at the Californ in
Brewery,

Considerable Excitement at the California In
Brewery.
1t took a squad of police and several
dozen civilians to quell a small riot at
the California brewery last night between
the Sommers family and Louis Lienne-
mann, one of the proprietors. There are,
OF course, two sides to the story, and as
there was altogether too much excitement
IN the house of Sommers for a statement
to be obtained, only one side was told
What the crowd saw was this:
About l o'clock in the morning the Som
mers family, father mother, two sons and
two daughters, who have played long
engagement at the California brewery
concert hall, left the dressing room at
| the close of the concert and started for
| nome, Sommers rpere was accosted by
Proprietor Liennemann and an animated
conversation took place. There was
| much gesticulating and the language used
was apparently none too carefully select
ed, for suddenly Proprietor Liennemann
landed on Sommers. Mr.. Sommers is an
old man, and the blow rendered him even
more groggy than he was to begin with
Then the whole family cut loose Such a
medley as the night owls were treated to
is rare thing even in Butte. The Som
mers children tried to avenge the blow
and threw chairs and other available mis-
siles till Liennemann was kept COM
fortably busy lodging. Meanwhile Lien
nemann's nephew came to his uncle's res
cue and fired a beer glass, which Mrs.
Sommers stopped with her head. Two po-
licemen arrived at this juncture and ply
steal hostilities were abandoned and YER
bal ones resorted to.
What the crowd heard then was some-
thing like this:
Get out of my place." by Liennemann.
PAY us and we WILL" from the oldest
girl.
Put us out, YOU dirty Dutchman,"
from the S-year-old boy.
I'll get the d. that struck pa Z"
from the oldest boy
'Wee-e-e-e, oh. the forrid, nasty old
thing" from the little girl
'Oh, the brute, Refuse to pay us and
then strike my husband!' from Mrs. Som
mers.
These were some of the things yelled in
chorus while Sommers pere was being
hustled out by the bouncers
Once in the street the old man and the
Oldest girl were attacked with a new fit
of passion and yelling, screaming and
cursing mingled filed the air. IT was
some minutes before they could all be
piled In hack and driven away. All this
time the policemen did all they could to
quiet the disturbance but made no ar
rests, apparently of the opinion the ones
who were getting the worst of it were the
least to blame. Proprietor Liennemann,
when asked the occasion of the disturb
ance, said the salary of the family was
attached Monday and when they made a
demand for it he could not paw, IT was
not released until Wednesday nigh. and
in the meantime they had insisted on be-
ing paid and had said some very uncom-
plimentary things about him. for which
ne called the old man to account. The
Sommers side has not been heard yet

gan in III this broad land, and under
no circumstances that 1t can imagine

although it might think he was mis-
taken. We are not calling people
''traitors"-not even those who insist
that the Declaration of Independence
should be abridged and modified so as
to make it harmonize with the policy
of that great champion of the silver
cause who now occupies the presidential
chair. The Standard will not even ap-
ply the term to those who insist that we

HEN a contemporary devotes
" two columnsof editorial space
to an attempt to expose a
misrepresentation of Dewey" 1t ought
at least to be able to point out one lit
tie particular in which there has been
Misrepresentation" The Standard
quoted Admiral Dewey literally, and
quoted everything that had the slight
est bearing upon the points discussed.
Not only that, but the language was
given the fairest, most reasonable and
common sense Interpretation. If Dewey
had intended to approve the policy of
the administration he could have yaid
so in ten words and so clearly that
there could be no possible misunder-
standing. He did not do it, but on the
contrary gave utterance to Opinions
which must stand as criticism if they
stand for anything. 1t is said that
Dewey's remark about the fitness or in
telligence of the Filipinos is no more
than has already been expressed by
representatives of the administration.
We would like to know when, by whom,
and if so, why some suggestion was not
given to the Filipinos that our super
vision and control was only to be TEN
porary; because if Dewey is right they
soon will be fit for self government, and
then by the very principle conceded,
they ought to have 1t. 1t is claimed
that the remark about the Filipinos be-
ing better than the Cubans proves moth
ing for the Filipinos, but merely dis
parages the Cubans. That is true if
every fact is to be twisted so as to
make it support Mr.. McKinley's Phil
ippine policy. What the Standard said
was that the American congress had al
ready decided the question of the fit
ness of the Cubans and decided it in
their favor. Hence there is no con-
rlusion 10 be reached other than that
Dewey thinks the Fillpinos should have
as favorable treatment as the Cubans
which, unless a solemn act of congress,
declared in the face of the whole world,
is to be deliberately set aside and vio-
lated. means self government. The

Red Fire in Ohio.

N the state of Ohio the normal re.
publican majority during recent
years has been not far from fifty
thousand. For the democracy and Its
silver republican allies to expect to
carry the state seems at this distance
to be extravaganza
And yet nothing in politics can be
clearer than that the republican leaders
are more or less disturbed over the sit
uation there, and with good reason.
Being the home of Mark Hanna and
his protege, it is of the utmost import
ance to the republicans that they carry
the state, and by at least the usual ma
jority. Accordingly the most tremen-
dous efforts are being made. The cam
paign has been opened with Roosevelt
on the stump, and with enough red
fire accompaniments TO set off a dozen
Dewey celebrations.
ROosevef's speech literally amounted
to nothing, but it passed for an argu-
ment with some people, and in view Of
his present position, together with his
spectacular career, it was considered
wise move to play him as the star at
traction at the opening performance.
1t is safe to say that the state will lit
orally swarm with republican spell

FRIDAY. SEPTEMBER 90, 1899.
TWELVE PAGES,
Dewey and Montojo.

t is a curious coincidence that lust
as Dewey is welcomed home with
all possible pomp and glory, Montojo
is condemned by court martial and re-
tired from the Spanish service. 1t is a
harsh verdict but not wholly unde-
served. Montojo displayed great per-
sonal bravery during the battle of Ma
nila bay-Dewey himself has testified
to that-but gallantry is not the only
thing needed in commander. Montojo
was a victim of overconfidence. He
was caught off his guard. He was not
ready for the Americans 50 early in
the morning. He was taken at dis
advantage, but he himself was at fault
Nominally at least Montojo's fleet
natural advantages should have been
on his side. Suppose the positions had
been reversed. Suppose that Dewey
was inside the bay and that Montojo
sailed into it. Dewey would have been
waiting for him as cat lies in wait for
a mouse, and one by one as Montojo's S
vessels sailed up Dewey would have
concentrated MS Hre upon them and
destroyed them. Montojo fought well
enough under the embarrassing circum-
stances, but having been literally
caught mapping he never had ghost Of
show after the first gun was fired.
There are a few people who scofr at
Dewey's achievement and affect to be-
lieve that the battle of Manila bay is
small potatoes compared with the great
sea fights of history. But whether
Montojo was or was not a foeman
worthy of Dewey's steel projectiles,
Dewey exhibited marvellous strategy
and his gunners exhibited marvellous
craftsmanship. There Is no gainsaying
that. 1t has been said, and we have not
seen it contradicted, that more effective
shots were fired at Manila and that a
greater weight of metal was exchanged
than between the hostile ships at either
Copenhagen or Trafalgar. 1t was the
first great battle with modern warships
and modern guns, another circumstance
that adds to Dewey's fame.
The Anaconda standard., 1899-09-29

binders. In fact that is already ar
ranged for. Still there is manifest anx-
iety in the sacred circle 1t is doubtful
if in the entire political history of the
country a precedent can be found for
the narrow, ill-tempered, demagogical
letter of Secretary Hay to Chairman
Dick. 1t was in the worst possible
taste. Mr.. Hay did not even have the
weak excuse of being an Ohio man in
terested in the local politics of the
state. His action was a clear violation
OF the traditions and the dignity OF
the great office which he holds, and
could have been inspired by nothing
but fear that harm would come to
his chief. No one who knows McKin-
ley has a shadow of doubt that the
letter was written and sent at his di-
rect instance.
And there Is really much in the Ohio
situation to give him concern. The vote
that Jones will receive is an uncertain
quantity, both numerically and with
reference to it's source. That there is
dissatisfaction among the German re-
publicans is beyond all denial. 1t was
to allay their doubts and fears that
the Hay letter was written. To what
extent the hostility of the Foraker
Rushnell-Kurtz faction will count
against the regular ticket is also mat
ter of grave and alarming uncertainty.
Aside from all this there is a strong
republican undercurrent, outside Of the
German element, that is opposed to
the imperialistic policy to which the
party has so suddenly been committed
by the administration. Whether this
feeling can be so far controlled as to
prevent injury to the party is another
uncertainty. Under existing circum-
stances, for the republicans to barely
hold their own in the presidents home
state would be suggestive of heavy
losses elsewhere. Hence it Is safe to
presume that the efforts put forth there
by the republican managers will be of
an almost unparalleled character. In
deed that Is already shown.
The line of augmentation" was dis
closed by Roosevelt's speech. You are
a copperhead!' you are in favor of
forty eight cent dollar, but afraid to
meet our arguments!" 1--WE are more
opposed to trusts than you are!" These
are the appeals that will be made to
the intelligence of Ohio, and at regu-
lar intervals the bands will play Am
erica" the glee clubs will sing Rally
around the flag, boys and the cur
tain will rise upon gorgeously illumin-
ated tableaux showing the colossal fig
ure of Mckinley, welding the avenging

tion's financial honor" and the genius

about cat. Stone did not like the tone

led to rumpus, the outcome of which
was the arrest of Stone for swatting
