MIR. MANTLE'S SUCCESS.

The fra triumph Of senator Nantes
bill providing for a public building in
Butte. despite the flibustering Of demo-
Gratis of the Dockery type, is very gratify-
ing to the residents of this city. With
out the political cooperation he had d
right to expect in the matter of pronlot-
ing the measure, Mr.. Mantle finally over
come obstacles of a most vexatious and
discouraging nature and was rewarded
bv a victorious vote in the house of rep
resentatives.
The success of his bill means a great
deal to the city of Butte. With an indus
trial and commercial future already as
sured, with resources Of a definite and
permanent type, this metropolis is well
along on the highway to greatness, and
the addition of a government building to
its other improvements will give still
more momentum to the march Of pro-
gress. No city in the northwest is better
equipped to meet all the conditions OF
Icrowth and development than Butte, and
| the federal recognition accorded 1T viii
tstrengthen real values and in every way
| promote the best interests OF our pro
! gressive citizens.

A PERFECT TITLE.

For three hundred years Spain held an
u%ndisputed title to the Philippine is
lands. Manil was once wrested from her
by the British but returned as the out
come of negotiations entered into be-
of Spain was recognized the world over,
and the natives of those stands IA no
more power to organize and operate an
! independent government than have the
red Indians upon the reservations of the
west.
When those islands were transferred to
| the United States for a consideration of
500. 900, 900 this country acquired that
which Spain had SO long held-an undis-
puted title. An insurrection on the part
! of the natives has no more bearing on the
legitimacy of our title to those islands
than an indian uprising upon the, right
of the United States to control the terri
tory lying west of the Mississippi liver
The title in the one case is as perfect as
in the other. 1t is therefore folly to as
sumo thai the present policy of the Unit
ed States in the handling of the Philip
pine question is an attempt to rob a peo-
pie of the rights of self-government-
