NOW THE INVESTIGATION
An Effort fO Hunt Out and punIS h inc Destroying Mob Will Require an Organization Like Military Campaign = The Whole Coe UT d'AISnc CouEfTY in Sympathy With Them.

Spokane, Wash, April 30.-A special to the Spokesman-Review from Wal lace, Idaho, says: Practically all of yesterdays Wardner rioters arc back at work. Those from Canyon Creek nearly all went home at midnight, while this mornings train from Mis- soula took the balance of those from Mullan. The understanding last night was that Jack Smith. killed at Kel- logg, would be buried here today. but the funeral has been postponed. Thsre is much less talk today than yesterday. Synpathizers with the rioters having calmly, have begun to think Of tho probable consequences.
 Many inquiries are made as to the likelihood of martial law and the prob able outcome of an attempt to punish the evil doers by some power really desirous of meting out justice There is no talk of any attempt at punish ment unless by the federal authori- ties. Governor Steunenberg's estimate of 500 troops being necessary to pre- serve peace is all right if nothing more. is desired, but should arrests be made many more will be needed.
 The miners are nearly all armed and their positions on Canyon creek and at Mullan are nearly imrregnabIe, while the country is full Of men and women who will furnish all possible information to them. These men win hesitate at nothing should their lib- 5erty tbe endan gered. The thorough ness of their organization was shown in the way the clans were gathered yesterday morning. Sympathizers al! along the line were ready when the train arrived, dropping whatever was in hand to go. The amount of powder used at Wardner was greater thar, was supposed here, fully forty boxes having been taken at the Frisco mag aZine. Four explosions were distinctly heard here and three at Murray, fifteen miles on an air line across the mountains.
 A special to the Spokesman-Review from Wardner, Idaho, says: The kill ing of Jack Smith, the rioter from Burke, who fell yesterday, will be the subject of such an inquest as the Occur d'Alenes have never seen. q shall summon every man in the, county if necessary in order to ascertain the cause of his death," said Coroner France, decisive.y tonight. ''No straw verdict will be received. I shall con- tinue the hearing as long as may be necessary"
 Smiths body is now lying in the Miners Union hall at Burke where it was taken by the rioters on their ra~ turn there yesterday afternoon At first difficulty was looked for in hold- ing the inquest. The miners sent down word to Dr. France, the coroner, that he would be expected to come up there in order to examine into the cause of death. They added that in case he did not see fit to do so, one of the local magistrates would be called upon to conduct the examination. Dr. France promptly telephoned to Paul Cochrane, the secretary of the Burke union, and held him responsible for the safekeeping of the re mains until the coroner himself could conduct the hearing.

Miller to be a brigaGter general in connection with his service at IIoilo.

MUNICIPAL OWNERSHIP.

While conditions may exist under
which municipal ownership of public
utilities may best conserve the interests
of the people, undertakings of that type
should be approached with due caution.
The abstract proposition is not sufficient

ALLEGED THREAT.
OF PRINCE OF WALES
WILL BOYCOTT PARIS EXPOSITION
BECAUSE OF ATTACKSiONk@
THE QUEEN. - ="

New York, Dec. "A special cable to
the Evening Post from Paris Says
Ar anonymous but evidently inspired
letter printed in yesterdays Figaro as
coming from Il prominent Frelchman in
London has caused Il profound sensation
by it's threat hat the Prince Of Wales
would secure the boycotting of, the Paris
exposition unless the French press stops
its scurrilOus attacks on the person of the
queen. Willette's ca~ricatures in lie, Rire
are supposed to be the chief REASON
The unanimous reply of the ianti-E.ng-
fish papers is that such attacks, though
d~eplorable are not worse than the yio-
lent and personal accusations brought
by the entire English press against
Gen. Boisdeffre and the French army
staff during the Dreyfus case.
Resentment is also felt at the insinua-
lions of the New York correspondent of
the London Times in his on
Minister DalcaSSe'S speech. Frenchmen
do not acknowledge the interpretation
gratuitousiy given to their sentiments
late war with Spain. and think that the
calumnies Of the English press were suf-
fiently refuted at the time.
Attention should be Drawn to the min.
isterial announcement that ratification
of the Franco--Alnerican treaty Of COM
merce would be asked in December at
the same time from the french parlia-
ment and the American senate. If the
latter takes favorable action promptly,
it is extremely probable that the ratif-
cation will pass here. The present OPP
position is largely political to annoy the
ministry. which only completed the ne
gotiations begun by the ministry of NJ.

disastrous to any community.

Whether this be the end i. view. or the
suspicion that a scheme to unload some

has been aroused in Helena, and public
meetings are being held to protest
against the innovation. In a vigorous
address delivered at a recent meeting,
the Hon. Massena Billiard, formerly city
attorney, said:
1t is with sorrow that I say it, but the

THE UNITED IRISH LEAGUE.

A letter from Mr.. Patrick Ford, editor
is a tendency on the part of the United
Irish League to renew its work with
vigor. The objects of the league are set
forth as follows;
/. To stop famlnes, which recur every
four or five years in Ireland.
.. To stop the drain of Ireland's life
blood. which is daily pouring out in the
ineessant emigration of the youth and
yigor of her children.
,. To abolish lanalordism n to re-
store the soil of Ireland to the people of
Ireland.
4. To unite Irishmen in this work.
Mr.. Ford makes the statement tina 80
years ago the population of Ireland was
over S,00o. 600. While at present it does
not exceed 1000, 300. In the meantime
the population of England has doubled.
The annual rental paid by Irish tenants
is placed at $50, coo, 900, most of which is
| paid by Irish servant girls II Irish har-
vest hands in Scotland. according to Mr..
| Ford.
The condition of affairs leads the editor
OF the Irish World to make a strong APP
peal for the friends of humanity to
unite in the work of restoring the soil
| of the native sod to the pillow of the hus-
bandman. 1t appears hat large tracts
of Ireland hay been given over to stock
growing, thus lessening the volume OF
agricultural products and limiting the
population which it can support. Mr.
Ford's efforts will stimulate a feeling OF
sympathy for Ireland in all quarters, anG
no doubt do much good in promoting the
interests of that unhappy country,

A BRILLIANT SCHEME.

After announcing that the silver repub-
lican party will supper Bryan next year
and endorse the democratic platform, the
h~elm-holders of the organization. in ses-
sion at Chicago. give it out that this
course Of procedure on their part will
have a tendency to hold the democracy
to the silver cause. 1t is passing strange
that these provisional committeeman are
willing to acknowledge any necessity for
holding the democracy in line for silver,
when so ready to align themselves with
that party months in advance of its
official enunciation of it's principles.
Why should the national silver repub-
lican convention be held at the same
time and place as the democratic, and
why should the committee practically
pledge the party in advance to co-opera-
ton, when forced by the logic of the sit
uation to concede that the bourbons re-
quire e~xtraneous party influences to hold
them in line for silver? What sort of
fidelity does this imply?
But silver is not the impelling motive
of these provisional worthless. They have
no h~esitancy in declaring their purpose
to align themselves with Edward Atkin-
sons gang of copperheads in the east,
and thus bring together a force of kick
ers of sufficient strength to command

as. the price of their support, provided
the democracy is able to deliver the goods.
1t was ridiculous enough for a handful of
men. posing as the provisional committee
OF the silver republican party, to arbi-
trarily outline the future of the party TO
the extent of trying to force cooperation
With the democracy; but the height Of
absurdity was reached when 1t announced
that the party would take democratic
Imperialism
In 1895 the silver republican party en-
dorsed no tenet of the democracy what
soever. and ted with that organ
ization on the silver issue alone. Had it
been prepared to accept the doctrines of
the democratic party it would not have
maintained a separate organization. If
prepared to lay down their views as 20
the paramount issues which the demo-
try, as the price of sflver's retirement to
the background, silver republicans should
at once abandon their organization and
tumble headlong into the p%urlieus of de-
mocracy. According to the provisional
committee there seems to be no lines of
demarkation between silver republicans
deney of the latter to drift away from
their silver mornings unless the former
brace them up through an offer to CO.
operate with them and divide the spells.
But the position taken by the Chicago
meeting is a fragrant abuse of the exceed
insly limited powers delegated to its
members. 1t is an utter disregard of the
right of the party as such to define its
W position on public issues, and it's
work will be r%epudiated by more thar
50 per cent of the silver republicans
throughout the nation. The fraud is too
palpable-the evidence of democratic
handiwork too clear. Democrats in dis
guise ma assume to influence the silver
republicans Of this country, but they can
not do it. Their bunco game will not
work. 1t is too a~wkwardly played to de-
ceive any intelligent man..
