THE CASE OF WELCOME.

A great deal of interest is manifested in
the outcome of the disbarment proceed
ings inaugurated against Mr.. John b.
Welcome before the supreme court of
Montana. Confidence in the integrity and
good judgment Of the court of last re-
sort is SO widespread and pronounced
that no one will question it's purpose to
do what is right and just in the consid-
GRAFTON of the case. Mr.. Welcomes high
standing as a citizen n as a lawyer
adds largely to the interest shown by the
citizens Of Butte, where he resides. 1t
may be truly said his professional career
is above ~reproach, and his personal life
in Butte has been at all times character
lied by an upright and dignifed de-
meanor
The allegation that he went to Helena
and stepped outside his professional life,
in order to shape the course of the legis-
lative assembly with the use of money,
is a question upon which his friends and
enemies will quite naturally disagree.
Fair play would suggest the propriety of
leaving accusations of this type to the
determination of the courts, rather than
trying them in advance. The Anaconda
Standard is, we believe, the only newspa-
per that has assumed the ~prerogatives OF
the court and attempted to render a YER
diet before the supreme tribunal could be
reached in the regular course of proce-
dure under the law. Whether that news

ton, without the benefit of its advice, OF
whether It desired to shape a conclusion
for the public mind regardless of the ac-

One of the sprightliest and most read
able of papers is the Montana Hotel and

DEWEY AND ScHLEY.

""D
Ofttimes it as much evidence of cour-
age to be a moral hero as to shine con-
~spicuously on the battlefield. Admiral
Dewey has proved himself to be a great
man. not only under conditions that test
ed his physical courage to the limit of
r%ashness. but under the fires of tempta-
ton that would have successfully storm
ed the citadel of a weaker man's soul I'm
der the blaze Of glory heated by his
marvellous achievement in Manila bay he
was urged by all the arts of persuasion to
become a candidate for the presidency of
, the United States. He could nave had a
nomination without the asking. and it is
not at all improbable that his triumphant
election might have followed. He refused
to be a candidate. His path of duty lay
in the navy.
Then came the movement to raise {,
fund expressive Of American gratitude, to
build or buy a palatial residence in Wash
ington city for the great naval COM
mander This, too, he refused, just as
the Inter Mountain predicted he would do.
If money was to be raised for Dewey i
must go to the erection of a refuge for
poor and INDECENT sailors. He would have
it no other way. A noble thought nobl.'
expressed. Dewey has shown himself to
be a moral hero.
Another hero of the Spanish-American
war is Schley. The temporary absence of
poltunity Of his lifetime and he dis
charged the duty Of sinking the fugitive
Spanish fleet in Santiago bay with credit
to himself and the country he represented.
He honestly Won his laurels, though his
achievement did not rank with that Of
Dewey's either as a feat Of daring OF in
Importance to the public.
The democratic managers decided thai
they must in some manner identify their
party with the triumphs Of the war. Fitz-
hugh Lee had dropped out of their calcu-
lations as a war hero, besides his connec-
ton with the late confederacy might pre-
JUDGE him in some quarters, despite the
fraternal relations Of the north and south
Bryan had not distinguished himself tc
any great extent at Chickamauga, and h5
) must nave an epauletted hero for a run
!. ming mate.
5 SO Schley was put on probation as ar
| experiment. He did not say, as die
r Dewey, MY duty lies in the navy" H,
t "wlnked the other eye" He put himsel,
2 into the hands of his trainers and "swuns
: around the circle in the most approved
T style. Ovations were organized in his be
half and pump-handle politics got il
4 their work" Then the democratic stat
convention in the great would-be demo
l cratic commonwealth Of Pennsylvania Of
ficially classified him with Andrew Jack
son. Thomas Jefferson and William Jen
I nings Bryan, as a leader to be POLITICAL.

Mr.. Schley has been regularly initiated a

Another Milestone.

With this issue The SENTINEL
enters upon the nineteenth year of
its existence. AS a newspaper The
SENTINEL has always enjoyed a
wide and liberal patronage, which
we have reason to believe has been
well merited, and it is indeed most
gratifying to note that each year
the patronage steadily increases,
not only as regards the paper, but
in the job printing department as
well, the fact being well known
that the best work and stock are
always furnished at this Office at
the lowest possible prices.
Thanking our many patrons
for past favors and trusting to
merit continuance OF the same,
we heartily wish one and all a
happy and prosperous New Year.

Burrows Unanimously Nominated
To Serve a Full Term In
the U. 8. Senate.
ALBERT PACK wITHDRAws
Governor Pingree Is Greatly Dis
& appOinted-BurrOws Men
Jubilant.

The great senatorial contest was
practically settled Wednesday night
when Senator julius G. Burrows,
who has served the common wealth
ofMichigan as statesman in the
national halls of congress for the
last 22 years, was chosen by the Re-
publicans of the Michigan legisla-
ture, by acclamation, to serve his
state and party for another six
years as United States senator.
Albert Pack gracefully withdrew
from the race, fully satisfied that he
had no chance of election even under
any system of obstruction that
might be adopted by an organiza-
tion of the legislature favorable to
his candidacy. This was all there
was of it, and the result quite fully
supports the statement of certain
Burrows managers made month
ago, that while it was one of the
noisest contests ever made in the
state, it was finally entirely one
sided and really no contest at all.
Edgar j. Adams was chosen
speaker of the House, which was
also bitter disappointment to Gov.
Pingree.

l.. o. T. M. PARTY.
One of the Most Enjoyable Ever
Given in L'Anse.

The fifth annual ball, given in the
Town Hall Monday evening by the
ladies of Meadow Brook Hive, L.
o. T. NJ, was a pronounced sue
cess in every respect, and it is safe
to state that more enjoyable
party was never given in L'Anse.
The hall was decorated with ban
ners and emblems OF the order, and
the ladies in charge did everything
possible to add to the pleasure of
those present.
At IL O'Clock the ladies of the
lodge gave the l.. o. T. M. drill,
exemplifying q portion of their
floor work, which was a very
pleasing feature Of the evening, and
at the close of which brought forth
hearty applause.
Supper was served in the dining
room of the ball, and it was nearly
4 a, m. when the party broke up
and the people departed.
A number Cf people from the
copper country, Pequaming and
Baraga were present.

Ithas become fad among young
ladies, says an exchange, to collect
articles belonging to young men.
The latest is that Of pipes. One
young lady in Cincinnati has wound
the rods Of her bedstead with col
ored ribbons and made it a thing OF
beauty (?) by sticking pipes OF all
kinds in the loops. There are long
pipes and short pipes, briars and
meerschaums, clay and corncobs,
and others too numerous to men
tion. All, OF course, have senti-
mental history. Another girl has a
long string Of pipes tied together
with cigar ribbons; and another has
them arranged around the door
frames and another has ornamented
picture frames with them. y

Items OF Interest Taken From

Condensed.
AFTER COPPER MINES.
The Standard Oil Octupus Is
Said to be Reaching Out
its Tentacles.

A Houghton dispatch to Detroit
papers says: "It is reported that
the Standard Oil Co. is after Amer
ican copper mines and that emissar-
les OF the octupus are in the copper
country for the purpose of getting
options on the famous Michigan
mines. A corporation with capi-
tai Of 500, 900, 900 will be formed to
operate the mines under New Jersey
laws"
DR.. Bell, superintendent of the
Northern Michigan asylum for the
insane, at Newberry, has rendered

which he says he will locate in De-
troit and may builda private asy-
lum there. The board OF control of
the asylum and DR.. Bell have not

SIX MEN WE'RE KILLED.
Hurled From Cage in Lake SUI

Lake Superior mine at Ishpeming
on Saturday. The dead are: Matt
Tumminsen, Takka Mikkala, T. ].
Kujanpaa, T. w. Paavala, Alfred
Siiyio, John Henrik Kyamhanus.
The men were coming up after
working on the night shift. Joseph
Maloney, one OF the company's best
engineers was handling the drum
controlling the cage. At about the
4O0-foot level in the shaft there
was a jar, but after that the cage
came along smoothly until fifteen
feet from the suface, where it was
janmed tight.
OF the nine men 10 the car only
three had reached the surface, and
they were badly injured. The other
six had been hurled to death at the
bottom of the shaft. The accident
is involved in mystery aud the most
experienced miners cannot explain
it,

POTATOES FROM EUROPE.

A ship came into New York the
other day from Scotland with 10000
sacks Of potatoes on board. The potato
crop was poor in the East last year.
Potatoes have been imported from Scot
land and Germany all Winter. 1t is a
great pity that transportation on land
cannot be reduced to more nearly CON-
pete with water carriage, because there
are several million square miles in the
West on which potatoes would grow
very much finer than any imported from
any place on earth. The tablelands
between the Rocky and Sierra Nevada
mountains are for the potato what the
Philippine islands are for the mango
apple. Beyond that they have a prop
erty which Eastern friends need exceed
ingly. They are not only better for the
stomach, but they are better for the
brain, and especially for the morals of
those who cat them. 1t is q lasting pity
that New York city cannot have all its
potato supply from the inter. mountain
