Mike Paisley and Dave Ledbetter
are the i%nnocents abroad in Great
Falls this week. The former passes
as a clergyman, and even writes the
"Rev" himself, to facilitate the Josh.
The latter usually travels inoog. OF
in company with Mr.. Hike, signing
the more common alias of"Leadpipe".
They are life delegates to the county
convention, and are good democrats,
with the emphasis On the "good."
But because a mar is a good demo-
crat, 1T is not saying much n his
favor. 1t is said that Mephistopheles
had TO build a large annex to his
roasting and drying furnaces last
year, on account of the vast number
of good democrats he was receiving.

THE CRY FOR REVENGE.

The situation in the far East docs
not improve. The consensus of the
| dispatches up to yesterday goes 10
in PeIlin, including the diplomatic rep
| resentatives, while the lighting at Tien
Tsin every day serves to make more
clear China's ability to offer n stub
born and protractcd resistance.
This in turn has led TO n decided
change of temper on the part of the al
lied nations. There is noticeably much
less talk of dealing leniently with
China than was heard week ago.
The cry in London. Paris, Berlin, Rome
and st. Petersburg is vengeance and
dismemberment. if London is to he be-
lieved. The cost of taking revenge is
expected to be so great as to necessi-
tate reimbursement by the seizure of
territory. That is the diplomatic way
of putting 1t. The real situation is that
the Powers have gradually worked up
TO n declaration of their naked pur-
pose to make an end of China, always
provided the process does not 'necessi.
tate cutting one anothers Threats over
the spells.
So far as the United States is CON
cerned, this new determination will not
increase its prestige. Mr.. Hay has as
sumed TO extend the Monroe doctrine
to China. and has been snubbed for his
pains. Now, he is endeavoring Go de-
termine whether he has casiis belli

and the bloodier the conquest the bet
