bodies of soldiers who had died during
the war were taken aboard. while al

THE PHILIPPINE JUDICIARY.

In his bill providing for the creation of
a court of five justices to constitute the
Philippine supreme court, Senator Stew

each. This is generally considered an
absurd sum to pay such officials and the
Nevada senator is being severely CRITICS.

of extravaganza.
There is something to be said or the
other side of the question. however.
Senator Stewart believed hat if he spe-

tually receive, it would be reduced all

will be necessary to nave a judiciary that
is not only above suspicion. but also a jul
dietary of the highest ability. In this con-
n~ection, it will be remembered that Ma
Mia is not exactly a health resort and a
salary that would attract many able law
yers in this country would not induce
them to go to the Philippines.
Senator Stewards plan was probably
not intended as a method for reducing
the surplus in the government strong
box, but to bring the facts noted to the
attention of the country quickly. In hat
he has certainly succeeded.

A Peculiar Proceeding in Which the

George e. Miller was released from the
county Jail today by order OF the county
attorney. Miller is a miner, having been
engaged in leasing for a year or more.
but about ten days ago he was arrested
by a Of the city police depart
ment on an alleged trumped up charge
of vagrancy and thrown into the county
Jail as a "fller' without his name being
entered on the city jailer's book. He
remained in the Jail during the smallpox
quarantine on hat institution, but when
the embargo was raised yesterday he at
once communicated with Attorney B. s..
Thresher. with whom he has an intimate
acquaintance, and laid his case before
him. This morning Mr.. Thresher called
upon the county attorney and spread the
matter before him.. Mr.. Connolly tele-
phoned to the city Jail to ascertain the
circumstances of Miller's arrest. and at
ter the jailer nae gone through the Jail
records word was sent back to the coun-
ty attorney that Miller's name had not
been entered.

OUGHT TO BE SATISFIED.

This seems to have been a copper year
for Boston, sure enough. Leaving out
the Amalgamated, although a large
amount of stock in that company is held
there, ten Boston copper companies paid
IN dividends during the year, 500, 3S3, 100.
OF the total. fully SIS, 900, COO went to Bos-
ton.
These figures are vouched for by the
Transcript, which,, in an editorial on
s'Boston's Copper Year" says:
The various copper mining companies
of Boston interest have completed their
dividend record for 1900, and the COM
pilation is interesting. OF the thirty
five Lake Superior companies on the
Boston stock exchange list, only six
paid dividends this year., and that Was
one more than last years record. The
total by these companies us smaller than
In 1899 for the reason that the fire in the
calumet & Hecla mine last spring caused
a smaller dividend payment to stock
holders, $40 per share this year against
800 last year, a difference equal to

The Wolverine paid 81 this year. or fifty
cents per share more than last year, an
Htncrease of $780, 900.
Against these increases. the Quincy
paid 50, or fifty cents less, a decrease of
$50. 900; the Osceola paid the same, So in

MExICo'S GRAND OLD MAN

J To PorfrIo Diaz more than to any other
man. Mexico is indebted for the pros
perity it is enjoying today. He is nov
past seventy years of age and has just
been inaugurated as president for the
fifth time, yet those close to him can de-
Rect no waning Of his powers, which, if
they are exercised autocra tically, still
have no other object than the advance
ment of his country. He has fought
Through all the wars since 1S47 and has
proven his courage no less than his abil-
ity. 1t was through his efforts that the
Mexican Central railway was built. and
since then a great era of development
has da,wned in the country. His present
term of Office does not expire until 1904,
and should he live, he will doubtless he
his own successor, for the people down
there seem to have no thought of a
change.
His career altogether has been a stormy
one. but it has been crowded with tri-
An.phs.

the presidential election the River Press

for Mckinley electors being the largest
among the official returns made public
at that time. We must now regretfuily
surrender the palm to Custer county,
which comes to the front with a plural
ity of sos, which secures her the proud
honor that we fondly hoped was ours
We doff our rough-rider hat to the loyal
republicans of Custer. s
