OH, KEEP COOL!

If to the advice Of the physicians to
keep your head cool and our feet warm,
is added the admonition Of the clergy to
keep your conscience clear, one ought to
drift along through life in comparative
comfort. Just TOY however, some of our
esteemed contemporaries are ignoring
these rules Of health. Take the Ana
conda Standard. for instance. While its
conscience is doubtless clear, and no one
has seriously questioned its piety when
working at the business, it betrays mark
ed symptoms of cerebral excitement due
to a Reorganization of blood in its cranial
department. In other words, it is unduly
excited.
Having made its case to its own salts
faction, and pronounced judgment and
ordered the knife in the guillotine proper
~ creased for immediate use, why can it
not keep it's shirt on until the execution
takes place? 1t is hardly the proper thing,
"honor bright to advertise to the world
day after day that the present legisla-
tive assembly is as corrupt as the express
sion on their faces may indicate, merely
because the boys were rocked in demo
o.a+;c oroJ1r- Fed ~, loy,, ooro +io Mill opI
SO forth, up to the time when they out
grew their years Of discretion and per-
United themselves to run for office.
It is bad enough for the Standard to find
all Of the Clark men guilty before they
are tried, without running amuck with it's
frenzied lead pencil and jabbing it's incis-
i've point into the character of the general
public. 1t is perhaps doing no particular
damage at home, where everybody knows
it is suffering from reactionary senator
ialitis in the left ventricle of it's ambi-
tion, but abroad Where its influence is not
strong enough to melt the snow off the
ground every morning, and where it is MOI
known that it's editorials set it's pres!
room on fire the other day, the effect i!
bad.
There are a lot of yahoos in the cas-
who do not understand the high plan
upon which Montana politics are con
Quoted, and these fellows are likely t,
draw the inference from the Standard
editorials that there is a buzz-saw i,
operation at Helena with which the fes
tive legislator delighteth to monkey. r.
prevent such erroneous impressions get
ting abroad without a chaperon TIL
Standard ought to poultice it's indignation
with ice, and wear lighter underclothin
to prevent an undue breaking out of it
rash expressions. In other words, neigh
Dor, keep cooi and like the Irishman'
gondolas-let nature take it's course.

THE SALARY BILL.

Senator Hobson of Meagher county has
introduced a bill fixing the salaries of
officers of the several classes Of counties
in the state. The bill is said to be drawn
upon the sam. lines as the one which
passed both houses of the legislative as
from the clerks desk and hence failed to
reach the hands of the governor for his
signature. The bill, of course, does not
affect the present officers of any county
in the state, but cuts down the salaries
of those who may be elected two years
hence.
Senator Hobson is a gentleman who
stands high in the councils of his party
as an earnest, able, conscientious repub-
lican, whose long residence in Montana
and close observance Of it's past and pres
ent conditions ~abundantly equips him for
the responsible position he holds. The
senator, in common with the cool, level
headed men of the state, is cognizant of
the fact that the salaries of our county
the ability of taxpayers to meet the de-
mands of assessors, and are far in ex-
cess of the wages of those whose duties
are quite as onerous and responsible in
other walks of life.
That the present salaries Of county
officials are largely out of proportion to
the duties they perform, and what they
could earn in other legitimate vacations
is evidenced by the biennial scrambles for
these county offices. They are regarded
as "plums," as soft snaps" and by many
as sinecures, for the possession of which
men will wade into mire and corruption,
if need be, to obtain, feeling assured that
if once installed at the public crib they
can bask on the sunny side of Easy street
for a couple of years, at least, during
which time they can lay wires for re-elec'
ton. The intention of Senator Hobson's
: bill is to reduce salaries to a level will
the ability of the people to pay them.
} 1t is true the 'laborer is worthy hi:
hire" be he a county official, a workman
at o bench, or a miner in the bowels o.
the earth, but incentives should not b.
, placed before men which will draw tn
: artisan or the miner from his toll to be
E come an ofice-seeker. Large salaries ar
1 demoralizing and spoil many a goo'
workman and make as many inferio
S officers. Salaries of public officials SHOULD
: be measured by the brain power, clerica
S ability, or muscular strength required t
perform their duties-nothing more
nothing less.

A Mysterious Find

Travellers on the +. 4 P. railroad will
aill q familiar landmark from the west
side of the track in Pine Valley, about
half q mile south of Parry's home place.
It was a large two story frame building
know at the old Willard place, situated
out III the middle of the field, about four
hundred yards from the railroad track,
where it has stood in its lonliness, unoc-
eupied for the last twenty years. The
house is owned by f. A. Parry, who had
it moved up to his home place about two
weeks ago, and after it was moved and
during a cleaning up of the site upon
which it had stood, the upper part of a
human skull was found with a bullet
hole in the back of it. A further search
vas made but no other bones were found
No one seems to remem Der any myster-
ieus disappearance in that neighborhood
and the mystery will probably never be
solved.

Hot Stuff

A well-known Mississippi farmer will
have cause to remember his recent visit
to Memphis, says the Scimitar. He
stopped in a well known cafe and among
other things ordered a sirloin steak. A
bottle Of tobasco sauce was sitting on the
table and installing it for catsup he
spread it on his steak quite lavishly and
settled down to enjoy his meal. He cut
off a big piece, but no sooner had it struck
his mouth thar he began to feel as if his
tongue was on fire.
He twisted and twised and turned
and o o had the eyes of everyone in
the room fastened on him. The more
he twisted and turned his face the
hotter the steak in his mouth got. He
didn't know what was the matter.
He could stand it no longer and reach
ing up his hands he jerked out the
burning bite and threw it on the floor,
and in a very dramatic way, exclaimed:

The Republican organs in San Fran
cisco have claimed all along that the
election of Phelan and the Democratic
ticket would be a rebuke to Mckinley.
Well, the Phelan ticket has been
elected by a heavy majority and Mr..
Mckinley has been rebuked, but now
the same papers take pains to inform
their readers that the election of
Phelan was a purely local affair with
no national significance.

his cabin, his wife came up to where the
fuse was lit. Clock was hid at a safe

Nevada Marriages

Since California passed d law forbid
"a year from the date of the divorce,
the couples who have been affected by
the c.. ifornia LAW, have found Nevada
as an deal locality in which to legally
mate.
1t h Us been held by some authorities
that these marriages, made in Carson
and Reno as a rule, were illegal and an
evasion of the law.
Judge Fitzgerald of the Superior
Court of Los Angeles has recently
rendered a decision which will carry
JOY into the hearts of hundreds of peo-
PIE who have been in doubt whether
a Nevada marriage under the circum-
stances named was legal or not. Sin
gularly enough the title of the case
was Rose V. Rose. the lovers ~favorite
flower. He Il Q .ideQ hat tho State
law OF California declaring void mar.
riages of divorced persons if celebrated
within a year of the decree, was invalid
as far as it has been held to affect mar.
riage5 Of such persons made out of the
State limits when they have left the
State for such purpose. To illustrate
his views Judge Fitzgerald quoted the
law against duelling. The State no
only fOrbids it in the State, put goe
farther and says that offenders are Ii
able if they go outside the boundaries
of the State for the purpose Of disobey
ing the law. The code provision re
garding remarriage makes no such
specific mention regarding persons go
into other States for the purpose solely
Of evading the law of their domicile.
The people of Reno, where most o
these weddings takes place, and tn
many couples whose marriages ar
validated by this courts decree, wi
rise up and bless the name of Fit
gerald for all time.
