Boxer instruction unexpectedly solved
the Eastern problem, and gave to Japan
the opportunity to assume the guidance

for the integrity of the empire. It was

stroke knocked the ancient and honor

was useless. What was to be done?
The only thing to be done was done.
Germany and England went Russia one
better by forming an alliance for the
protection of Chinese integrity, and asked
the United States to join. This the
United States was ready to do so far as
the alliance provided for the preservation
of the empire.

had some basis of truth. how much or

The slaughter was premeditated. It had
the sanction of the Women, or, if it had
not their sanction. it certainly was not
done without their knowledge.

either one of them or both, and they Sc
cured its execution either by Hardy and
Miller or by some others.
1t is doubtful whether story of more
shocking depravity ever had its origin
III this state. The young women are
morally untitled to live if their story OF
their own part in the attempted murder

true. Society should have some adequate
protection against such monsters as they
are on their own showing There is very
little chance to distinguish between the

during the progress Of the trial there is
one OF the sisters, whose name we do not
recall, who seems utterly oblivious of all
feeling, save that which might animate
a ravenirg wild beast in search Of or sa-

The purpose announced of placing these
boys again on trial for the murder of
the child will hardly succeed in any good
result. What ought to be done, unless

any agency be sent to state prison. there

regard them as monsters. And even #

The Democrats of the Unitad States
have lost seven years in fighting among
themselves. There has not been a
straight party contest within that time.
The swollen Republican victories of these
years have all been won by Democratic
votes. This civil war has lasted long
enough. The time has come for Demo-
Gratis to get together Those who have
stood by the flag through the years of
defeat and encouragement are ready to
strike hands with those who abandoned
it. But they do not expect to give up
their voice in the party councils.

WILLARD AND DAILY

1t would be hard to find two men in the
entire nation who in their lives illus
trated the grand possibilities of business
advancement which lie at the hand Of
the American citizen, if he have the VIII
and intelligence to enable him to grasp
them, to a greater extent than did Henry
Willard and Marcus DAILY. They were
both foreign born. They came to the
United States without single advantage,
save such as their clear head and ener-
getic minds possessed them Of Circum-
stances were not favorable to the de-
veloprnent of others career along the
lines on which he won distinction and
wealth. At the outset their activities led
them away from the vocations they
adopted. Yet these men won in two lines
of pursuit, in which it is supposed moth
ing short of skilled knowledge, acquired
from careful training and experience
would be adequate to success.
What was their secret, will naturally be
asked. They had no secret. They had
purpose. That purpose was to achieve
success in any calling in which they
might engage. Willard was a good re-
porter, perhaps as good a reporter as he
was railway manager He certainly
could not have been a poor one, since
such men as he never pursue for long
any occupation to which they do not feel
themselves adapted; and he acted as re-
porter and correspondent for a period
covering many years. Daily throughout
his active life showed indomtable pur-
pose. He had all the fighting propensity
of his race; and he was throughout
good friend and a dangerous and bitter
enemy His enterprise and energy en-
abled him to win a fortune and to rea-
lie practically every earthly ambition
which he entertained. To him the state
of Montana owes much, and his loss will
be dearly regretted by thousands of men
who have known his friendship
