cradle effigy ant talk back, and any kind
of a coward can string him up. 1t is
unfortunate for the good name of the
state abroad that the Anaconda Standard
sees fit to cultivate this method of pun
ishing" those members of the Legislative
assembly who have, justly or unjustly,
incurred it's displeasure.
That our esteemed contemporary re-
CARDS such practices as overwhelmingly
painful to the victim is evident from its
reference to the Beasley incident. 1t
says: "a horrible experience has been
his" If its theory is correct it may be
that the efigy business accounts for the
fact that Hartman had only enough
strength left to secure three votes for
senator in the joint assembly, after a v
ing been fguratively suspended in South
Butte! However, We are confronted pv a
theory, not a condition.
If Mr.. Beasley accepted a bride his
%neighbors can perform no better service
than to ferret out the crime and punish
him to the full extent of the a W. And
they can perform no worse service,
whether he be guilty or innocent, than to
hang him in ef1igy. That sort of proce-
dure seldom represents public sentiment,
and when it does so much the worse for
public sentiment. 1t is to be hoped that
Mr.. Beasley will make his action for libel
a vigorous one and put a stop to this new
ly initiated feature in the political meth
DDS of this state.

THE POLICE BILL.

While it would not be within the con-
right of the legislature to pass
a law for the government of one city that
does not apply with equal force to others,
that is cvaded in the police bill by MAX
ing the provision applicable only to cities
having a population of $4,000. If that
bill becomes a law Butte alone will be af-
fected by it, and the legislature is about
to make the mistake of RELOCATING its
disposition to the delegation from this
county. Under the circumstances, it is
regarded as a local measure, and nat
urally the state at large feels little con-
Germ in it's fate one way or another.

HARTMAN DROPPED.

When Mr.. Hartman snapped his poiiti-
cal birthright for a mess of pottage in
the early hours of the late campaign
there We're many who believed he would
be taken care of when the jewels were
made up No mar ever worked with
greater zeal to pull the political founda-
tons out from under himself, in order to
build up other influences that aspired to

that he would be sprung as a dark horse

dUced Mr.. Hartman from the straight
and narrow path of political integrity.
But in vain. The Conrad tide ebbed and
flowed. It's pulse went to the elbow and
it's heart wabbled with an uncertain gait,
yet not one of Mr.. Hartman's Anaconda
friends was so poor as to do him rcver-
ence. Not a single vote came from that
wing of the democracy to remind him
that life is not a vapor-a fatal contiguity
of idle dreams. Some of the Conrad men
went to Clark and one of them-the
sachem of the wigwam-cast his vote for
Fox, and a few others vent to Maginnis,
but not one of them would vote for Hart
man.
The sage of Sourdough was "smote" in
the house of his friends. His three votes

with which the magic name of their chief

But contemplated legislation should
not be viewed in that manner. The pro-
posed bill introduces radical changes in
the police system Of this city, as we'll
as establishing the precedent of creating
new offices that are wholly unnecessary
to the we'll being of this community. AS
originally drafted, the bill was a left
with the reform left out. In effect, it's
purpose is to ~perpetuate the police force
and fire department under the SUPER
vision Of a commission comprising the
mayor and a couple of other distin-
guished citizens, whose duty it is to ex-
ercise a censorship over the officers of
the law. 10
If the police require a committee on
good behavior to sit in judgment over
them, the same rule should be applied to
other officials. Let all the officials of the
state be brought under the power Of a
commission sitting in stately majesty
over their acts. Let the state go into
a general commission business. IF the
people cannot elect reliable men to office,
and those men cannot place reliable men
in appointive positions, then let US have
a commission composed of our best citi-
| zens, who are always too unpopular to
! get an office, to see that those who are
elected or appointed do their duty. Let
! the commissioners be paid a commission
on all those who are fired from office on
their recommendations, INC that will
make room for others to get office and
keep the public funds circulating in the
community.
just think what an opportunity would
have been given a commission composed
of that nestor of journalism, the Hon. J.
H.. Durstan, and James B. Gallagher and
Patrick Conlan, sitting in judgment over
the conduct of the members of the Sixth
Legislative assembly! Wouldn't the fur
fly? Inside of twenty-four hours the
public service would have been thor
oughly rectified, and the smell of car
bolic acid would have warped the pave
ments in Helena. With such an example
before us it is plain to be seen that the
precedent of establishing a commission
to supervise the police force of this city
and see that the clubs of the officers arr
kept in good working order, is one tina

The Anaconda Standard Is exercising a
marked influence upon the rising genera
ton. Saturday afternoon two little chaps
about seven years of age might have been
seen on one of the principal thorough
fares of this city, engaged in celebrating
the fact that the senatorial struggle had
come to an end before they, too, reached
"the lean and slippered pantaloon.' One
of the little fellows had a horn upon
which he echoed the discordant notes
that had been affecting tho legislature.
The other boy, who evidently had lean
irGs toward the anti-Clark wing of the
democracy, had no toot, being destitute
of a horn. The t~ootless lad said to the
tootcr: ooh, yes, you didn't buy that
horn with yer own m~oney-you didn't
waste fifteen cents on it. It's Clark's
Doodle" Sure enough, an investigation
showed that a purveyor of tin horns had
been bribed to make them as contagious
as possible among the small boys. A
transcript of the boys testimony will be
sent to Washington.

The EFF-GY BUSINESS.

1t is a matter of surprise that a great
reform newspaper like the esteemed Ana

Timber. 1t seems that some of the in
habitants of that thriving little city
hanged Representative Beasley in efiigy,

The man who hangs another in effigy to

Endorses such conduct would have to go

The Inter Mountain condemned the
hanging in efigy of Congressman Hart

the influence of the Standard, had been
guilty of political conduct that excited
the utmost indignation and contempt
on the part of a large body of citizens
in this city. 1t is perhaps needless tc
remark in this connection that the Stand.

The Talk OF the Day.

January rs was observed by the
presbyterian congregational and other
chufcheS as a day of prayer for schools
and colleges in accordance with the time
honOred custom. There are about one
hundred thousand men taking the higher
education in the different colleges and
universities of the United States. There
are, in addition to co-educational insti-
tutions, 143 separate colleges for women,
with 1894 pupils. In the professional
schools there are 90, 249 students, besides
many students of law in private offices.
students of medicine number 24,377, and
students of theology of all demonmina-
tions S,113. 1t may be interesting to add
in the decade 1887 to 1897 students in
medical schools increased in number 106
per cent; in schools of law the number in
creased 22S per cent, and in schools of
theology the increase was only 80 per
cent. In the Presbyterian church in the
decade ending 1888 the total average num-
Der of candidates was 760, or one candi-
date for every 1926 communicates. In the
decade ending 1898 the total average num-
Der of candidates was 1927, or one candi-
date for every 657 communicates. In the
four concluding years Of the later decade,
however, there was a serious falling off
in the number of candidates. In 1896 the
church had under it's care a total of 1903
candidates, the largest number in it's his
