farewell to silver, the st. Louis single
standard organ says:
That it would be useless to make an
other stand for silver in this country un-
I'll conditions change" is so self-eyident
that none but the blindest of the Bryan
lite Bourbons refuse to see it.
And then it tried to explain to some
who claimed to have left the pluto
cratic party, in 1896, for principle" are
getting back into line now:
The fact that Republican prospects at
the present moment are as bright as they
were even in the greatest days OF the
partys history is an evidence that silver
ism is dead, whether Bryan acknowledges
1t or not.
While that is somewhat different
from our neighbours prediction in 1896,
that the Republican party wouldn't
last three years with Mckinley nomin-
ated on a platform hostile to silver,
one shouldn't expect too much of a
prophet who cannot even predict what
his own sentiment will be in a few
months from the date of his prophecy.
But the Republican outlook, while not
as bright as the st. Louis paper paints
it, nor yet as gloomy as our local con-
temporary described it. is not as flat
ering as it was at the beginning of
the Spanish war. There have been too
many scandals, there is too much of
Hanna's brutal business methods in the
treatment of all public questions and in
the contempt of the administration for
the people, to make it popular. If
Hanna can enforce the cooperation of
the trusts and bankers again, if he can
corrupt the elections and subsidiZe a
few more newspapers, he may win out.
But it isn't such a "cinch" as these
goldites try to make out.

He is an anachronism. He is at the
head of a privileged class. This class
is a small minority. Every law that
goes upon the Boer statute books is
drawn with reference to it's privileges
and with the purpose of perpetuating
them. Every law is drawn to the det-
riment Of three out of every four white
residents of the Transvaal. Boer birth
is a patent of nobility. To be other
than a Boer in the Transvaal is to be
crowded to the wall and kept there.

SCIENCE.

The deep sea is in total darkness. and
plant life, according to Sir OHM Murray,
is quite absent over SO per cent OF the
ocean bottom. Fishes and invertebrates
however, are scattered over the floor or
the ocean at all depths. The majority
OF these deep sea nina live by eating
the mud, clay, or ooze, of by catching
the particles of organic matter falling
from the surface. 1t is probable that
three-fourths of the deposits now cover
ing the floOr of the ocean have passed
through the alimentary canals OF marine
animals. These mud eating species,
many of which are comparatively gi-
gartic size, become in turf the prey Of
numerous rap3cious animals. Many
deep sea animals have archaic character
istics, yet the region cannot be said to
have more remnants of by-gone fauna
| than the shallow and fresh waters of the
continents. Sir Wyyille Thomson be
liaved that since the Silurian period there
has ben a continuous deep ocean, with {
bottom temperc3are near frahs 4Wate1
freezing point. and always on ahyssal
fauna. Sir John Murray inclines to the
view that in Palaeozoic times the ocean
was not as deep as now, that the waters
had throughout a nearly uniform high
temperature and that life at the bottom
was absent or represented only by bac-
terra.

wider knowledge of the technicalities of
the law. The war of the roses lasted
thirty years. but the war of the copper
kings heed not last half that long to con-
vert every man, woman and child in Mon
tana into a pretty fair off-hand lawyer.
With two or three libel cases,a disbar-
senatorial custer case, and a dozen more
cases in ~embryo-all growing out OF the
harmony. that does not prevail in the
democratic party-the opportunity to
gather information as to the true in
wardness of our statutes, made and pro-
vided, is a glorious one. SO far, thou
space have been used, barrels of ink alb
sorbed, yards upon yards of legal docu-
ments prepared, weeks Of time expended
in the courts. thousands of dollars squan-
dered, and a large number of religious
duties scrupulously avoided, and still
none of the democrats in issue are as
yet in Jail.
There seems to be a weak spot in the
law. All the democrats against whom
charges of corruption have been made
ought to be in Jail, on the one hand, or
all those who have made the charges
ought to be III Jail. on the other hand.
Somebody is guilty of something. There
is no doubt about that. But legal tech
nicalities, of the most approved Montana
brand, have SO far saved both sides from
the horror of not being permitted to run
at large and get into more trouble.
Sometimes. one is almost tempted to
endorse the legal system of the Latin
world, which is practiced by every civil
lied nation on earth, with the excep-
ton of Great Britain and the United
States. 1t is a system founded on the
best laws of ancient Rome. as codified
by Justinian. and has an incommunicado
attachment that would work s%plendidly
in Montana. Under that system q mar
can be arrested without knowing what
ails him. He is thrown into Jail and his
troubles are investigated with as much
secrecy as if he was in the hands of a
Helena grand jury. He is not permit
ted to communicate with men who are
able to tell him what to swear to. As
a result. he is usually either sent up or
! hanged up, according to the gravity Of
the offence charged against him.
This kind of a jurisprudence would jur-
isrrude in great shape in Montana. Ha6
it been operative here two-thirds of the
democratic editors. and all of the lead
ing democratic politicians, would be j

The science of living, of getting from
our years on earth the most that they
can be made to yield, will be one of the
great developments of the twentieth CEN
fury. The condition Of the people has
greatly improved in this century, as Mr..
Henry Higgs stated at the recent meet
ing of the British association, for houses
are better and more sanitary. wages are
higher. while commodities are cheaper,
and such institutions as free libraries,
museums. picture galleries, etc, with
parks and promenades, have multiplied.
Yet it is to be feared that housekeeping
is not better understood than it was two
centuries ago. Professor Marshall has
estimated that f1O0. 900, coo annually are
spent even by the working classes, and
f40O, 900, 900 by the rest of the population
Of England. in ways that do little or
nothing toward making life better Or
happier, and that something like f100,
900, 900 a year might be saved is a suffi-
cient number of able women went about
the country and induced the other wo-
ment to manage their households as they
do themselves. There are, at any rate
great possibilities of Improvement in de-
tails of food, dress and habits, without
any curtailing of luxuries or amuse
ments. In the warming of houses there
is enormous waste of fuel, and Atkinson
has estimated that the waste of foo(
from bad cooking in the United States i:
