protection in factories that is to be
found anywhere in the nation or in
the world. The employers of labor
in those factories have been educat-
ed to the Importance Of looking after
the safety Of their working people
and are now as wide awake upon
the subject as they were negligent
relating hereto eight years ago.
The change has been brought about
mainly by the efforts of the Bureau
of Labor, its commissioner having
framed the present factory act and
secured it's enactment at the hands
of a Republican legislature.
The Irvine investigating COM
mittee have thus far failed to find
anything wrong with regard to the
sale of prison Irvine. Since Gov.
Lind could not pick a flaw in the
prison management, but on the con
trary endorsed it, it was not ex-
pected that there existed any
abuses. Nevertheless, it was wise
for the Republican party to inves-
tigate the charges, and this is being
done with the greatest care. But,
as stated, it seems as if Mr.. Lind S
endorsement of the prison manage
ment will be endorsed by the com
mittee when it's report is submitted
to the legislature Thus one of the
most effective campaign lies of the
Fusionists is knocked squarely in
the head.
A bill is now pending before the
legislature, which if it becomes a
law, will be of much benfit to
farmers who have settled on school
lands. The bill proposes to reduce
the interest on school land GER
tiicates from to per cent. The
State now finds it difficult to loan its
funds even at 3 per cent. and there
is about half a million dollars of the
school finds in the treasury at the
present time which cannot be in
vested. It is hoped that reducing
the interest on these certificates one
per cent. and extending the time for
payment to fifty years will have a
tendency to decrease the inflow Of
into the treasury. That is
the opinion of Auditor Dunn and in
his report be recommends the pas
sage of the measure. The reduc-
ton of interest is also expected to
enhance the value of unsold school
lands.
Two years ago the legislature
passed law Offering a State bounty
of one cent per pound on beet sugar
in this State. This

Fales shook off his antipathy fol-

me so cents?''
The individual took Fales into an OBJ
scure corner, handed him a dollar, and
said:

Counterfeits to Be DESTROYED,

Washington. March 21.-Preparation
are being made by Chief Wilke of the
secret service to destroy $1,22l, 500, 1888
worth of counterfeit coin and bogus
notes which have been accumulated by
his bureau. OF this amount $117,243 re-
present United States treasury notes,
silver certificates, bank notes and
fractional currency: $10,021 is in imita-
ton gold, silver, nickel and copper coin.
The balance of this sum is in imita-
ton of various obligations and securi-
ties, including fac SMILES of Tennessee
state warrants Missouri bonds, state
bank notes and flash notes. When
spurious coin and notes. together with
the counterfeiters' outfit, are captured
an inventory is taken of them and they
are properly labeled and boxed until
the time arrives for them to be de-
stroyed The paper money will be mac
Grated by the same machinery which is
used in destroying worn out genuine
notes, but the metal will be sent to a
private foundry here and melted.

Not n Question Of Youth.

| ~ HE Butte Miner remarks that tht
youth of Mr. Kirk is the only
argument which the Stand ard
can urge against the candidacy of that
gentleman. AS a matter of fact the
only mention of Mr.. Kinks age has
been in the columns of the Butte Miner.
The Standard does not know whether
Mr.. Kirk is young or old. There are
few citizens of Butte who are we'll
enough acquainted with the gentleman
to be posted on that point. Mr.. Kirk
may be 20 years old and he may be CO.
His own declaration is that he does not
consider himself fit man for the office
He declares that he is absolutely with
out experience in municipal affairs. and
that in his opinion some one who has
lived in Butte longer should be chosen
to conduct municipal affairs.
That is the situation. Mr.. Kirk Is
known to but comparatively few citi-
zens of Butte. Mr. Mccarthy has lived
there % years. and he is known to all.
Mr.. Kirk has no knowledge whatever
of municipal affairs, while Mr.. McCar
thy has filled the position of city treas
urer to general satisfaction. There is
no guarantee that Mr.. Kirk. in case of
election. would remain in Butte until
his term of office expires. He returned
about three weeks ago from a. trip to
the Hawaiian islands. He announced
to some of his friends that there Is
great future in store for Honolulu. and
that he proposed to remove to that city
and practice law but the nominate
for mayor of Butte seemed likely to
prove a good thing, and so lie has de-
cidad to stay here until he sees how
election shall come out.
Honor bright, now, Mr. Butte Miner.
tell the truth for once. Which, in your
opinion, is the better man for mayor of
Butte, Mr.. Kirk or Mr.. Mccarthy?
Which man has the wider experience?
Which is the safer man? AS a repub-
lican organ it is to be expected that the
Butte Miner will support Mr.. Kirk, but
if it tells the truth it must admit that
Mr.. Mccarthy is the better man for
mayor.

A Misfit A Assignment.


From the washington Post.
A well known chief engineer of the
navy who doesn't have to take any
dust from General Shafter in the mat
ter of misunderstanding the scales,
as he does, at a trifle more than 300
pounds-was recently ordered to take
charge of the mechanical department
of one of the smaller gunboats ON the
Pacific station. The engineer didn't
particularly like the assignment, but
it didn't worry him to the point Of sui
eide. He simply sat down and made a
sketch of the exceedingly narrow doors
that lead into the engine rooms of the
gunboat to which he was ordered
marking the dimensions of the doors in
figures on the sketch. Below his draw
ing of one of the engine room doors
this jolly chief engineer made neat
sketch of himself. full figure, not eN-
aggerating his Falstaffian paunch a
trihe. He attached his own dimensions
in feet and inches, crcumferentially. to
his sketch of himself. Then he put the
sketches in an envelope and respect
fully submitted them to the bureau of
navigation. 1t was a sort of document
that occasionally makes hit. The in
ference to be drawn from the sketches
was 50 obvious-the impossibility of the
chief engineers passage through the
engine room doors Of the ship to which
he was ordered was so apparent-that
the assignment was recalled. and the
laconic chief engineer is liable to get a
flagship when the next batch OF steam
engineering assignments is made.

In American Costume.

Tacoma. WASH. March 21.-Accord-

peror of Korea has created a sensa-

American fashion. His attendants have

The emperor, it is stated. has cut off
his topknot or short queue which from
time immemoral has adorned the
top of the emperor's head. The re-
formists were victorious in a large
measure in the late riots. The new
budget will make a liberal provision for
