beginning Of the end Of the war with
Great Britain and the dawnng of indie
pendence and union. The great Virgin

m.inder and wise statesman installed
the republic in the family of nations. 1t
has withstood every shock in war or
peace from without or within, eXpcr-
fencing it's gravcst crisis in the civil
war The other at AppomattoX was
the conclusion of the crisis. and the be-
ginning of 4 unification now happily
full and complete. resting in the good
will and fraternal affection of one to-
ward another of all the people. WASH
EgtonS terms of peace with Cornwall

colonies; those OF Grant with Lee tho
perpetual union of the States Both
events were mighty gains for the HUI
man family and q proud record for

in which we all have n share, both are
a common heritage. The one made The
nation possible. the other made the ma

seed of discord has no sowcr and no

n NR ". A. CLARK continues his
M industrious and pious endeav-
4 crs to manufacture, through
the columns of the eastern press, be-
lief that he is very much abused
man.
His latest effort Is brought to our at
tention through a special to the Butte
Miner, giving what purports to be an
editorial utterance of the Washington
Post. which. upon its face, bears the
most unmistakable evidence of having
been inspired in the interest Of Mr..
Clark. The wore" INSPIRED" is not used
in an obnoxious sense SO far as the
Post is concerned, but merely as sug-
gestion that 1t received its Impressions
either from Mr.. Clark personally. or
from some one closely Connected with
him.
The Post is an able paper, and it
ought to know that when a man Is
charged with bribery he is apt to be a
little biased in his own favor, and con-
sequently that it Is not safe to make
! its editorial utterances too broad upon
the basis Of anything which he or his
intimates may say about the matter.
The specialreferred to reports the Post
as saying that sit is well understood
in Washington that the disbarment
proceedings have been pushed in Mon
| tana by political opponents of United
| States Senator Clark for effect upon
the contest now pending. But it is
| l.. 4
! this effort will fail as the senator
stands ready to meet every specific
charge against him by full and salts
factory proof of its falsity." Accord
ing to the Post, when the case comes
before the senate, Mr. Clark is 60
ing to expose the foul conspiracy
against him in a manner that will
cover with shame and confusion all
engaged in it, Then It goes on to say
that the decision against Welcome
in no way involves the contest against
Senator Clark. That evidence Of an at
tempt to bride by Welcome would, OF
course, sustain the courts decision
but without affecting Clark, for 1t is
significant that no proof was Offered
that the alleged attempt to bride wa!

The Bank of France.

TT is a circumstance worthy of careful
note that in the present season of
monetary stringency, not whisper
Is heard of any trouble at the Bank of
France.
The bank of England puts up its dis
count rate to six per cent, and raises
its price for American eagles in order
TO attract gold, while the imperial bank
OF Germany adopts rate of seven per
cent. and the leading bankers of that
country are straining every nerve to
prevent the export of gold. Meanwhile
the bank Of France pursues the even
tenor of its way with three per cent
rate, and all kinds Of rumors are afoat
OF the probability of its loaning some
millions to the bank Of England
If this were the only time that such
a contrast had presented itself. there
would be no particular significance in
It, because it quite frequently happens
that some financial oenters are under

exmpt. But the same phenomenon ap-

HERR BANDMAkk'S TEETH.

Fifth Act of the Interesting Drama Now
On.
Mssoula Dec. e6.-The false teeth of
Herr Bandmann were in court again
to-day. The teeth themselves were in
the possession of the veteran actor, who
had them where they belor ged, but they
were also in court as the subject mat
ter of a suit brought by Dentist Oettin-
ger against Herr Bandmann to recover
the cost of the construction of the mas
ticators. 1t will be remembered that
these teeth and the parRes invo we'd in
their construc ton and use Rave here
tofore been more or less prominently
before the public.
The teeth were originally made for
Herr Bandmann by DR.. Oettinger, who
was to receive in payment a saddle
horse. Then came the claim that the
horse was not Forthcoming. Act II. &C.
Cured one day when the veteran actor
came in to have the teeth adjust ef a
l.tle to fit his classic jaw. The dentist
removed them from Herr Bandmann's
mouth ostensibly to make the changes
go and chase himself. Act III. was the
mlXup that ensued in which DIR. Oct
finger was roughly used but held on to
the teeth. Act ". was the suit Of Fl RI
Bandmann, which he won, and thereby
secured possession of his teeth. Act v.
will be rung up when the suit of to-day
Is decided. In 1t DR.. oettinger asks for
payment for the teeth.
