ardson Of Tennessee, the democratic
leader, to recommit the bill to the
committee on ways and means, was
| then beaten by vote of 172 to 1862.
| The increase in the minority strength
the latter ballots was due partly to
the fact that several democrats who
were not in the house at first came in
to vote, and partly to the fact that
some who went on record against the
substitute were willing to recommit.
1t was generally believed that Porto
Rico could and should be admitted
as a territory and that it's people
should have all the rights and privi
leges Of citizens of our territories
of the west. But it was insisted
that conditions in the Philippines
were different and that the legal
precedent that might be established if
Porto Rico were brought within our
laws and constitution would have
grave hampering effect upon Govern
ment action toward the Philippines.
1t is this legal complication which
brought about an amendment of the
original Porto Rican bill, establish
ing % per cent of the Dingley rates of
duty upon American goods imported
nto Porto Rico against foreign prod
ucts. This proposition encountered
the solid opposition of the democrats
and also remonstrance enough from
republicans to make it seem advisable
to amend the measure.
After several conferences this
change was made, the rate of duty
being reduced from 25 to Is per cent.
and the stipulation being added that
this arrangement should be provision
al merely, expiring at the end of two
years. These concessions won over
the greater part of the republican re-
monstrants.
In answer to question as to how
niue the bill as amended would raise,
Mr.. Payne said the estimate for the
original bill was 81, 900. If that
estimate was correct, the amended
bill would raise about $1,25O, 900 per
annum.

English are said to have suffered
more from being obliged to drink i'm
pure water than from lack of food.
Now that Ladysmith has beenrelieved
the English can turn their attentions
to an invasion of the Boer territory.
The Beers have undoubtedly made all
possible preparations to dispute their
passage at every available point and
they will now probably concentrate
their forces as much as possible and
resist the advance of the best of their
ability, but although they are brave
and have shown their ability to fight
and only hope to resist the over
whelming force which Great Britain
has assemled against them for short
time and the ultimate outcome must
be that they will be oblige to sue for
peace. There is no chance for Euro
pean intervention and without this
they can not hope to stand the Eng
ish force off a great length of time.

THE SITUA TON IN SOUTH AFRICA.

Success is following the English
South Africa at the present time.
After a brave and determined resist
ance Gen. Cronje surrendered bis
whole force to Lord Roberts last week.
The Beers could undoubtedly have
held out longer but their stand
was apparently made to allow
of certain positions being taken pos
session of by forces hurried forward
and .as soon as the required move
ments had been made, Cronje, who
could not hope to escape without aid,
surrendered his entire army amount
ing to about four thousand men. A
little later General Buller's advance
columns succeeded in making their
way into Ladysmith, not however,
until after the main force had seen
some very hard fighting. General
Roberts advance had really enabled
Butler to force his way through the
Boer lines9 by holding in check those
who would otherwise have gone to
the aid of the force besieging Lady
smith and by whose help Butler might
have been held in check. The garri-
son under command of Gen. White
had been isolated since the first oflast
November and had been obliged to en-
dure bombardment much of the time
and have defeated several determin-
ed attempts on the part of the Beers
to take the town by assault. The

In the first district it appears to be
settled that Gov. Page is to be the
next representative. The attempt to
beat him out by presenting a candi-
date from every town has appeared
to only strengthen his candidacy Civ
ing him a good lead over the entire
field. In the second district the can
didates are numerous as in the first,
but no one can be said to have any
thing like clear field. Col. Dale,
who was the last to enter the list of
aspirants, is gaining in popularity, and
his ability and fitness for the office is
recognized on every point.

AN EIGHT-HOUR Law.

w are in favor of the principle that
Eight hours work shall constitute a
days labor for all underground labor
ers and for all laborers in the smelling
and ore reduction works of whatever
character: and we pledge our party and
its representatives to further and for
ward by all awful means the passage of
a aw by the legislative assembly carry
ing such principles into effect; that such
law shall provide hat the shortening of
the hours of work shall in no sense at
feet the remuneration to be received
That is the so-called eight hour plank
in the democratic platform. The Inter
Mountain which believes that eight
hours is enough for any man to work,
renews it's suggestion in regard to the
above plank. Let the labor unions of
I:utte submit that plank to the best
lawyer or lawyers in Montana for an
opinion as to whether or not a law
framed in accordance with it's stirula-
items would be constitutional ].
Then let the same committee submit
to the same lawyer or lawyers the re-
publican eight hour plank and request
an opinion on the same point, viz: AS
to whether or not in accordance with it's
suggestions a law could be drawn up
and enacted that would stand the con-
stitutional test.
Is that not fair? Is it not in the in
terest of the eight hour toilers? Is it
not in the interest of justice to them?
What does the Miner suggest on the
subject?
The republican candidates for the
legislature in this county are all in
favor of an eight-hour law. They are
in favor of an e~ight-hour law that will
be constitutional, not one which, drawn
up under the pledge of the democratic
plank, would be so hedged about with
conditions as to be invalid. That is the
difference between the two parties in
this county. 1t is not a matter concern
ing the wishes or interests of this or
that mining company. The republican
county convention acted independently
of any corporation in adopting it's plat
form and nominating it's candidates. It
was as free from the Amalgamated as
from the Butte Reduction Works COM
pany. 1t went on the record Tor eight
hours and meant What it said. 1t fully
comprehended the seriousness of the
question and pledged it's candidates in
good faith to support an eight-hour law.
They will do SO.
We believe the democratic pledge on
thai subject to be a fraud, and there
fore ask that the men most interested
have it's legal value examined before, not
after, the election.
