TEACHING MUSKRATS TO SWIM.

Forest and Stream: That sensible pOr-
ton of the animal kingdom which natu-
raliStS are wont to term the brute crea-
ton has q wonderful faculty for dis
tinguishing between friend and foe; also
a no less wonderful aptitude for encour-
aging a close acquaintance with those
whom it trusts. Were it not for terror,
inherited through generations of abused
confidence and malicious cruelty, the
timid thrush would proudly lead us to the
sylvan paradise where she has hidden
her birdlings, and the coy doe would
bring to us her trembling offspring, that
we might stroke it's spotted side.
At the pool our attention was attracted
by a comical picture made by an old
muskrat trying to teach her babies to
swim. 1t struck us as strange that She
should go to such rouble; the little rats
have known ~instinctively how to
navigate, but they chung TO the bank n
to shallow water, above which arose their
fluffy backs, bright eyes and sharp noses.
The mother set them the example by
swimming across and back. She endeaN-
ored to coax, and finally she pushed them
over their depth and let them make their
own way to the shore, though, you may
be sure, she stayed close by. When we
We're seen the old lady shrieked
'sTramps!" in characteristic muskrat
language and fled to her sub-a1uatic
v%estibule, I SUPPOSE to call the police.
The little ones did not attempt to escap pc.
Ostrich-like, they hid their heads among
the roots, and left their naked tails Wav"
ing above the water like a new species OF
juncos waiting to be examined. The
madam could not quite ignore the mater
nal instinct, as she returned and con-
Quoted her family to the nursery, where
they received their first lesson in mis-
anthropy.

The Butte Miner explains at some
length how it happened that the Inter
Mountain was first to give to the public
the news of the Dreyfus verdict, showing
that it was not due to the enterprise of
this pape as much as to the fact that
there is a difference of some twelve hours
between Butte and Paris, thus allowing
the afternoon paper to get the news first.
Inasmuch as II morning contemporary
recognizes the natural conditions which
enable the afternoon paper to first give
the news of the day to the public, we will
cheerfully admit that the differences in
time, which make this possible, were not
arranged for that purpose by the publish
ers of the Inter Mountain.

MORE

For months past the Butte Miner, IN
common with other democratic newspa-
pers of the more pronounced type, have
ercising more vigor in the prosecution of
the Philippine war. While opposing he
war, and pleading the cause of Aguinaldo
with an enthusiasm that would have
mad a Massachusetts tory of the. old
school blush with envy, the democratic
press have insisted that the government
was permitting the rebellion to drag
along through inaction on the part Of he
military authorities. The protection
thrown around the property of the Fill
pinos-the effort to conduct the war on
humanitarian prineiples-were construed
as inefficiency. and weakness on the part
of the war department.
Now, that a more vigorous plan OF CAM
paigning is to be introduced. involving
the permanent holding of property ac-
CURED from the insurgents, and the occu-
pancy of their strongholds when taken,
the democratic press change their system
and attack the administration from an
other quarter. This morning the Miner
accuses the government of borrowing
Weyler's tactics for use in the Philip
pines. A more vicious display of copper
headism could scarcely be imagined than
such an accusation against the govern
ment Of the United States. 1t is positive
ly ~scandalous, in view of the humane
treatment which this country has always
accorded it's foes, not only during the
progress of a war, but at its conclusion
| as we'll. There is no instance in the his
| tory of this republic where an unneces-
sary affliction has been visited upon the
enemies of the country. At the close of
the great civil war not only was univer-
sal amnesty granted the leaders of the
rebellion, but the copperheads were also
permitted to live and resume business al
a later date-humanity exercising a
greater influence over the rulers of that
day than the cold, unfeeling considera.
tions of justice. -
What was true of the American breadth
of character in those days is true now
and there is utterly no justification in the
comprehend assumption of the Miner tina
the United States authorities are abou'
to introduce in the Philippines thu
wretched practices of the notoriou:
butcher of Cuba. War at it's best mus
bring suffering. distress and death tt
many, and the most approved methods o
subjugating an enemy by cutting off hi!
supplies mean the application of heroic
treatment to a disorder that should b.
suppressed for the good of all concerned
To blockade the ports through which thu
Tilipinos secure the supplies necessar,
for the continuation of the war will no
imply the starvation of non-combatant'

BICYCLE TRUST WAIVERS.
The Big Combination is Becoming
Shaky-

New York May 1.-The Herald says:
formation of bicycle trust indicate the
hugeness of the scheme as contemplated
by the promoters and prove that all is
not plain sailing toward the perfection
OF that scheme Not only was it the
close combination of all the big manu-
facturers of bicycles. but they aimed to
bring into the trust all makes of sad
dies, tires. rims, tubing and other bi-
cycle parts.
With this end in view, options have
been secured upon the plants of many
manufacturers of supplies and parts.
It made little difference that some of
the part makers had already formed a
trust of their own As a matter of fact
IL is stated on excellent authority that
A L GarfOrd. who recently formed
bicycle trust. was largely instrumental
in whipping the saddle and part makers
into line for the bigger com bination-
1t now appears that the big bicycle
manufacturers are not nearly so unani-
nous in the opinion that the proposed
trust if cOnsummated will be able to
prevent the manufacture of bicycles by
anyone not connected with and ruled by
combination it is claimed that all pat
ents OF any use in the manufacture of
bicycles Will be controlled by the trust
and hence the means by which to shut
out competition.
The makers who have decided to re-
main independent aver that many of
the patents are questionable and that
few. if any, have ever been sustained
by the courts
