carry away md appropriate to his
own uso and benefit without, SO far
as | know, the authority or consent
of tho State commissioner or the
State board Of control to SO carry
away and appropriate to his own

If there is any further evidence
needed to provo there was, and il, Il
conspiracy on tho part Of the ma ior-

tho dispensary, can provo it and
start part of 1t hore: The morning
the State board mot to fro Mr.. Dou-
thit q gentleman was then in tho
city who is member Of tho lcgisla-
ture, and ho stated that .Mr. Dou:hit
would lose his job and no would bo
elected State commissioner. This
was before the boaId he'd oven acted.
This shows that the majority faction
Of the board before they even met to
consider Douthit's case had made up
their minds to do him; not only this,
but had gone SO far as to select his
successor oven before Douthit was
fired.
The whole thing is cooked up
proceeding from beginning to end.
L believe even before tho investiga

in the deal and they are the instru-
ments the other eonspirators arc
playing on and having to carry out
their plans.
Look at their actions in regard to
the two Columbia dispensers and
forcing the Richland county board TO
resign. This means that tnreo mem
bers Of the county board and thcir
clerks, must bo tho tools Of the ma

out tho slightest consideration to
obeying any all demands made upon
them by any member Of the majority
faction of tho State board. IF the
majority faction of tho State board
will, without the right Of a hearing
and without even giving any notice,
treat the Richland dispensers and
and county board this way, firing
them without cause, will thoy not do
tie same in every county in the
State? They will not stop until they
have absolute control of every coun-
ty board and every county dispenser
and his clerk, and every whim Of
theirs, political or otherwise. must bo
obeyed and carried out without
question. The object of these con-
spirators is to perpetuato themselves
and their friends in power and try to

IN THE DISTRICT COURT
Pratt Celebrates His Verdict by
Getting Married. 4
C0NLIN MURDER TRIAL
Disgust Freely Expressed at the Yer
dict Rendered by the Jury.
Four Wanted to Turn
Him Loose.

Great Falls, Jan. 1.-THE trial of AL
of a yearling calf, was speedily con-
cluded this afternoon. The jury was
out but 10 minutes, just long enough to
take a vote and then brought in a
unanimous vote of not guilty. Mr..
Pratt naturally was elated at the re-
suit of his trial and very properly cee-
brated his acquittal by proceeding to
the office of the clerk of the court and
there taking out a marriage license.
The fortunate young lady was Miss
Emma Duran, also of Arlington.
Public opinion to-day is more out
spoken in it's criticism of the verdict in
the Jack Conlin murder trial than it
was yesterday. Not a man has been
heard to express anything save disgust
at the light sentence given the pris-
oner and the apparent lack of good
sense displayed by the jury. 1t seems
that four of the IL were in favor of
turning Conlin loose, others were for
murder in the second degree and the
resulting verdict was compromise.
The jury might as well be dispensed
with and criminal cases hereafter set
tied with a deck of cards and a game
of slough. The evidence to anyone who
listened to it or read the printed re-
ports was decidedly convincing that a
cold-blooded murder had been commit
ted, an unarmed man shot down when
he was not even giving offense and
possibly was apologizing for previous
offenses. Ten years in the penitentiary
is hardly a safeguard to the public
against the future acts of such a char
acter, and that is the utmost which the
court can give him. Silver Bow is not
the only county in the state where a

Civilization in the Tropics,

David Starr Jordan in the New World.
The territorial expansion now con-
templated would not extend our insti-
buttons, because the proposed colonies
are incapable of civilized self-govern-
| ment. 1t would not extend our nation,
because these regions are already full
of alien races, and are not habitaple
by Anglo-Saxon people. The strength
of the Anglo-Saxon civilization lies in
the mental and physical activity Of
men and in the growth of the home
Where activity is fatal to life the An
glo-SaXon decays, mentally, morally,
physically. The home cannot endure in
the climate of the tropics. Mr.. Inger-
soil once said that if a colony of New
England preachers and Yankee school
ma'ams were established in the West
Indies the third generation would be
seen riding bareback on Sunday to the
cockfights. Civilizations is, as it were
suffocated in the tropics. It lives, as
Benjamin Kidd suggests, as though un-
der deficiency of oxygen. The only
American who can live in the tronics
without decentralization is the one who
has duties at home and will never go
there.
The advances of civilization are who'll
~ repugnant to the children of tie
tropics. To live without care. reckless
and dirty, to have no duties and to De
in no hurry, with the lottery. cock
fight and games of chance for excite
ment, is more to them than rapid tran
sit, telegraphic communication, litera-
ture, art, education, and all the joys Of
Saxon civilization. The Latin republics
fail for reasons inherent in the nature
of the people. There is little civic c.
herence among them: feelings are mis-
taken for realities, words for deeds.
and boasting for accomplishment
Hence great words. lofty sentiments,
fuss and feathers generally take the
place of action.

AN OLD SUPERSTITION,
Many, Stories Prove That Rats Will Leave
an Unseaworthy Vessel.


an Unseaworthy Vessel.
From Household Words.
The old superstition which has grown
into an adage, that rats desert a ship
which is no longer seaworthy, is still an
article of faith with the fresh water
sailors of the great lakes. Sundry well
authenticated instances seem to Justify
this belief. The Virnon was a three
master, which did a tramp business,
Built in Buffalo in 1850. she was for
many years regarded as one of the best
craft on the lakes she unloaded a
cargo of grain in Butra1o, and reloaded
with package freight for Chicago. She
was about to sail one rough November
night. Just before the lines We're let
off one of the seamen saw rat run
over the haWserS to the wharf. In a mo-
ment another was seen. The seaman
called others of the crew to see the un-
usual sight. Between fifty and seventy
five rats poured out of the ship and took
refuge along the wharf. The crew re-
fused to sail, but the captain was OBJ
stinate, shipped fresh crew and sailed
forthwith. The ship was lost with all
hands. The Idaho. a fine passenger
steamer, foundered in Lake Erie in No
vember, 1897. Out of her crew of
twenty-one men nineteen were drown
ed. Just before the vessel left her moor
ings a swarm of rats cfNwied over the
hawsers to the wharf. This was known
to a part of the crew, and four men de-
serted at the last moment. Similar stor-
les are told of other wrecked vessels,
and an old lakeman says: 1T has been
proved a hundred times. There are a
whole lot of things in this world that
we don't know anything about. Rats
live in the very filers CT ship. They see
what we can't see. When the timbers
are followed and the seams open these
little animals know that the ship is
unsafe, and they desert it.

Broken Glass for Razors,

From the Chicago Times Herald.
The natives of our new territory,
Porto Rico, has no need to buy soap,
for the wooded country abounds in
plants whose leaves and bulbs supply
most fully the place of that indispen-
sable article. Amon~ the best of these
is the soap tree. so-called, though it is
more bush than tree. Its bulb when
rubbed on wet clothes make a snow
white lather which has an odor like old
brown Windsor soap.
