The System All Wrong.

I \ the current number of the Forum,
Colonel Alexander S. Bacon dis
cusseS the question rs Our Army
Degenerate" The author finds the an
swer in the assertion that there has
been no degeneracy in the material of
which the army is composed, but that
the army lacks an administrative sys-
tenn conducted on scientific principles.
1t should be trained by officers educated
as military experts. In other words
he means that the army should be re-
moved from politics. After reviewing
the splendid material which the coun-
try affords for an army, he says:
And yet in the war of 1898 our ar
my developed LITTLE but scandal. With
Overlooking granaries, from which we
freely feed strangers in distress. our
soldiers often lacked food; with skillful
physicians and abundant remedies. our
sick heroes died without medicine: and

that of Mr. Kirk? Who knows what
is his ability or what his reputation?
One man is known by the people of
Butte and favorably known. The other
is known to but few and has never been
tried in a position of public trust No
one knows whether he possesses the
qualifications for the high Office of
mayor or not Even Mr.. Kirk is doubt
full of his ability to fill the position.
The old promises of reform and re-
trenchment" are made in the platform.
Just such promises were made when
Thompson was nominated for mayor.
Yet in Thompson's administration there
was no reform and no retrenchment On
the contrary. the last republican ad-
minstratlon was the worst Butte ever
had. 1t possessed not one redeeming
feature. Republican promises in the
past were not fulfilled and no depend
ence will be placed on the promises
made now.

plain sight on a smooth sea We have
highly educated military specialists in
abundance-young, energetic. amoi-
tious, already famous In military lit
erature-yet our one prominent cam
paign was conducted without system
on the please plan, and the
one prominent land battle was fought
and won by colonies and captains. I
am aware that interested persons will
deny the truth of some of these state
ments, but knowledge gained in the
practice of my profession permits me
to allege them with confidence. What
is the matter? Why are there no tai
en.ed leaders like those of IS? The
problem of 81 is reversed. Then, in
experienced subalterns and men were
at fault; now, company officers and
men take the bits in their mouths, and,
in spite of their general, gain glory at
San Juan and Ell Caney."
This is simply an indictment of AL
ger and Algerism. If the war with
Spain should revolutionize the present
glaring defects in the army system, it
will have been an additional benefit.

Kirk Nominated.

u T the dictation of the arch
\ wrecker of political parties, w.
! A. Clark, Mr.. John n. Kirk was
nominated by the republican party of
Butte yesterday for the office of mayor.
As Mr. Kirk himself we'll said, much
better men could have been named, men
better fitted for the Office and better
known to the citizens of Butte To pro-
cure the selection Of Mr. Kirk, to satisfy
the men who have no party Of their
own, but who seek by disreputable
methods to break into and control all
parties, good men and old-time citi-
zens of Butte We're turned down.
Charles SchatZlein, one of Butte's best
business men, known to every one, a
resident of Butte for IS years, was
cruelty Inundated after having been
solicited to make the race. A. F. Bray,
another well-known and respected bust
ness man of Butte, was also refused the
nomination. Somebody was wanted who
would be entirely satisfactory to
the Clark people, in order that Clark's
money could be turned loose in support
of the ticket. So Kirk was nominated,
man comparatively unknown, a recent
conner to the city, a man in whom the
business men and taxpayers can have
no confidence
The time will come when the repub-
1cans will learn the lesson which the
democrats have learned. They will learn
that it does not pay to sell their party
and their party's principles to Mr.. Clark.
They will find out, as the democrats
have found. that Mr.. Clark's support
means nothing. They will find out that
1t is better to steer clear of entangling
alliances with a man who cares for no
one but himself and who, to advance
his own ambition, will sacrifice any
party and any man. The republicans
were seduced by Clark's gold several
years ago and still find that gold Sc
ductlve. But they will find out that it
does not nav

PERHAPS YOU ARE A MATTOIO.
Probability That You Are One and Don't
Know 1t.

Perhaps you don't know what a mat
told is. Shortly, he is a sane man
with claims to genius, but possessed of
some marked popularity that inclines
one to doubt of his complete sanity.
There have been sane men of genius
and mad men of genius-the latter pre-
ponderate-but a mattoid forms a link
between the two.
According to Lombroso, the great
criminologist, mattoids are more fire.
quent among men than women, and the
classes where they most abound are the
literary, artistic and religious.
Preference for colored inks. just as
also a fondness for special words or
phrases, marks a man as mattoid. If
such sign is true it is perhaps a little
fiattering to ones vanity to think that
such an eccentricity may be proof of
latent genius hitherto unsupported.
The commonest variety of mattoids is
the, "graphomaniac," otherwise the con-
firmed scribbler. The man who spoils
ream after ream of paper in writing of
nothing in particular. who writes in a
feeble, formless style and showers
marks of exclamation as from pepper
boX-such is a mattoid. Many women
writer's and minor poets come under
this head.
1t is reassuring to know that the
"graphomaniac," however abnormal his
literary productions. is found to have a
normal Uranium and physiognomy.
Personal preoccupatjon and agrees
sive egotism are bad signs. But be-
cause Whitman, Rosseau, Musset and
De Quincy wrote much of themselves,
and did not always veil their various
personalities under the editorial we"
1t seems a little rude, not to say harsh,
to call them mattoids. Wagner, under
the influence of a peculiar mood, affirm
ed that he could not work If he did not
have in his room a red fiamingo mat.
Could he have realized (without inten-
ton of punning) that such trait was
mattoidal?
Peter the Great. when he was in Eng
land, often sat up till in the morning
with Lord Caermarthen. drinking
brandy and pepper! Nevertheless, he
invariably rose at A.
The fact that Napoleon could not
pass through a street without counting
all the windows would certainly earn
for him the esteem of most eccentrics
But 1t is not necessary to go on enum-
Grating historical instances of eccen-
tricity. Let the reader look around
among his or her circle of friends and
some will doubtless be found who show
an exaggerated fondness for detail, a
passion for animals or an irrepressible
fancy for punning. All these are in
danger of developing into mattods.
Collectors of stamps or old shoes, in
ventors of weird drinks-such as gor-
gonzola and bay rum-and especially
inveterate 'scorchers,' are all morbid
subjects.
The man who went mad in his efforts
to walk on the ceiling like a. fly was a
mattoid of the very deepest dye.
In fact, any degree of excessive orig
inality Is a dangerous thing in coun.
try where the eyes of the law look with
suspicion upon all who are not quite
ordinary, though in these days of self
advertisement it is hard to find people

had made numerous friends, who will be
sorry to hear this sad news.

The Tierpey Bill.

n n ONTANA ministers and newspa-
ssnor sm's fap Ss'o'"s es the
Tierney anti gambling bill are putting
Governor Smith and the legislature in
a false light. Governor Smith did not
veto the bill on any moral grounds.
He expressly stated in officially record
ing his objections to the bill that it
met with his disapproval because, in
his opinion, it would provide no rev.
enue. but would give officers of the law
an opportunity to work what is vul-
carly termed a graft, Governor Smith
is in favor of deriving a substantial
he believes in high license. The Tierney
bill was not a bill licensing gambling.
1t made gambling a misdemeanor, in
stead of a felony as it is under the
Chandler act, and made it punisha BILE
by fines ranging from $3.50 to 81 600 or
six months imprisonment Substan-
italy this would be the law that is in
force in most of the states of the union
Under the act making gambling a fell
ony. punishable by five years imprison-
ment. convictions are practically i'm
possible. The present law affords dis
honest officers better opportunities for
'grafting' than would the Tierney act.
If officers are SO inclined they can run
a graft for violations of almost any
law-larceny. burglary, receiving sto-
len property and the like. 1t is well
that the public should understand the
facts in the case. Had an extra session
been called, 1t Is quite possible that
Governor Smith would have boldly rec
commended the passage of high-license
gambling bill.

Yet it Endorsed the Spanish American
war, thus entering upon the field Of
national issues. Is not the silver ques-
ton as much a national issue as the
conduct of the war? Is it not in fact, a
far greater issue?
The resolutions start out with the
declaration that the situation demands
the cooperation of all good citizens in
the election of men whose ability and
reputation in the community guarantees
the faithful discharge of every duty i'm
posed upon them. and who will jealous
