United States senate. But it does lay
within the power Of our citizens to elect
the nominees of the hill democracy and
thus say to the world, not that an at
tempt has been made to pass on the eligi-
bility of Mr.. Clark, with which this city
has nothing to do, but that the efforts
to cripple the business interests and de-
stroy the investments of MI. Clark in
Butte have met with public approval.
The hill democracy will make it's fight
against Mr.. Clark's political aspirations
in the senate: it is making its fight
against his business investments in the
present campaign, and if the weapon of
municipal authority are placed in its
hands, the democratic fight, heretofore
confined to political questions, will enter
upon the domain of business life in his
community, to the undoing of the people
and the ruthless destruction of financial
values. Can the voters of Butte afford
to be betrayed by the Anaconda Stand

ingly to the partial paving of our streets,
refraining, however, from n mention
of the scandals connected Herewith, and
tries to becloud the fact that a special
property tax paid for the paving. The
figures given by the Inter Mountain,
showing the net indebtedness under the
Thompson and Harrington adminlstra-
lions, and the licenses collected by each
were taken from the city books, and are
correct in every particular as given. The
Standard does not make any direct at
tempt to dispute the facts as published
in these columns, but seeks by a round
about process of figuring to help the Har-
rington misft administration out OF the
financial hole into which it has placed

The election of Mr.. Ben Calkins to the
position of treasurer of this city will be
a fitting recognition of the soldier boys
who risked their lives in the Philippines
The courage that led Mr.. Calklns to en-
list at the call of his country, and DROP
every business interest he a at stake
is the kline of courage that will make him
an officer OF superior merit in the re.
sponsible position of city treasurer. AL
the signs of the times point to the cleo
ton of Mr.. Calkins by a splendid ma
jority.

Mr.. James c.. Sullivan, republican nom
irne for police magistrate, is rapidly
growing in strength. and his election Is
now assured. In the conservation of law
and order the position Of police magis-
ftrate is one of great Importance to the
people of Butte. Mr.. Sullivan stands
head and shoulders over his opponent, in
.tellectually speaking, and fortunately
there are no political influences behind
him that would defect him from the per-
Torrance of his duties as an officer of
the city. An upright magistrate is a long
step in the direction of good government,
and Mr.. Sullivan will make an ideal
officer.

Then the braves rolled stones and

and partially filed it up. Next they
turned their attention to the camp out

carrying away, even to the prospec-
tors arms and ammunition.

but it did no good whatever. They
just ssassed' US everytime we said any
thing to them. After cleaning out our
camp and .wrecking everything that
they had no use for the Indians pulled
out. Before leaving, however, the
chief ordered us to get out OF the
country and said we were fortunate to
be allowed to go home.
FOREIGNERS NOT WANTED.
The chief said neither Mexicans nor
Americans would be longer tolerated
in that section of the country
and that, while he harbored no i'll will
against Americana, it was his purpose
to drive them out of the country.
Rogers and Burgess struck out for
the nearest settlement. SIXTY miles

des, more than 200 miles distant, after
a long tramp over the hills. Burgess
remained there, but Rogers reached

in this city.

AS il to confirm the story of the
murdered Americans as told by the
deserters, Rogers said that after aban-
doning their comp he and Burgess en-
countered a posse from near Nogales,
and the officer in command told them
that they had been out for days,
securing the country Inquest of seven
Americans who wen into
the hostile country many
weeks before and had not
since been heard from. Their long
absence had excited the fears of their
friends and on that account the search
had been instituted. The officer said
he had visited the claim of the Amer
leans and failing to fud them there
had decided to make q detour of the
country. His belief was that they had
been murdered. s 2

by means of the peculiar phosphorescent
appearance when mined rubies are sub
jected 10 an electric discharge in a vac
uum tube. But l have seen a letter from
Mr. kunz In which he stated that while
ne believed the contents of a package of
rubies submitted to him We're artificial.
he could not definitely pronounce them
not 10 be the product of mine. Sir VIII
iam Crookes has since the formation of
his earlier views on the subject examined
admittedly manufactured rubies, which
satisfactorily answered TO all the require
ments of every known test.
AS for myself l can frankly acknowl-
edge that l have seen artificial rubes
which / could not distinguish from nat
ural stones. and I may say that l have
tried to get good large artificial ruby
repeatedly, but cannot get a London firm
that will sell a ruby of any size and
there is a syndicate making artificial ru-
bies and dividing $4,000 a year net profits
on the business.
mo, do not say that there is any dis
honesty about II. What does II matter
where a ruby comes from, so long as il
is genuine, either as a product of nature
or of the laboratory?
THE ruby mines are getting played out
and the real effect of the manufacture OF
artificial rubies upon the market is similar
to that which would be produced were a
number of new and productive mines 10
be suddenly discovered"
