The Advertiser has taken up the
proposition of free public baths.
The idea which has been advocated
years ago in our columns is most
excellent and should be acted upon
at once. May we suggest that no
better place could be found than
the Aala tract reserved for public
park. A public bath surrounded by
a public park would be a measure
that would kill two birds with one
stone. The bath would soon become
a favorite appendix to the park
which will be frequented by the
people who need fresh air and a
@wash."

The wisdom of Minister Damon's

The "Mayor OF Mahukona" is in
town and looking like an alderman
of the good old days. His name is
John Smithers and he has been
heard of before in this city where he
now is quarantined. How he got
his new title is little story. Some
weeks ago he received postal card
from Mr.. N dated from an obscure
town on the Mainland in which the
"Mayor of Mahukona was requested
to forward to Ma few copies of
the lesdi6g papers issued in the
place." There are three residents
of Mahukona and it was voted that
genial John was the mayor, he cast
ing vote for himself. Then he saw
that the postage on the card was not
sufficient and that he had to "dig"
six cents to the postmaster that's
himsslf-and he hired the other fell
low who voted him mayor to kick
him. John is full of tricks however,
aud he swore to get even with Mr..
N. He gathered bundle of old
Makaainana newspapers wrapped
them up neatly, addressed to Mr..
N and mailed them short of stamps
to prevent his correspondent to get
them without paying II cents. "And
after he has paid the damages" said
the mayor. "he can just enjoy read
ing them, if he can"

In his address to the Oh amber Of
Deputies recently, M. Delcasse, the
French Minister for Foreign Affairs,
warned listeners that there are those
who can see on the whole map of
Africa only one object, Fashoda-
like man who could see fly on a
barn door but not the barn itself.
The wiser vision perceives that in
the partition of Africa France has
secured by far the largest share,
having undisputedly more than any
two other powers put together and
more than Great Britain will have il
she shall absorb the Boer states,
Egypt, and Egyptian Soudan. Mr..
Delcasse sees a French empire
stretching il unbroken extent from
Cape Bon to Cape Verd, from the
Mediterranean to the South Allan
tic, in which British and German
possessions are mere enclaves. With
that, he we'll reckons, France may
be content.

Now that the whole community in
all its "Anglo. Saxon" tenacity of
purpose is practically united in its
determination not to be defeated by
its Asiatic foe, be it plague or not,
and as our commercial leaders, of
immense wealth, have thrown their
influence into the fight, the govern
ment need not fear attack from any
party even if they spend every cent
in the treasury to again render our
city pure anu healthy. Although
these are very trying and gloomy
times let us all too remember the
adage:

There is a gentleman at Libby who
seems to have had tip" as to the per
sonnet of the democratic legislative
ticket some days before it was nomin-
ated. In letter to the Anaconda
Standard, under date of September Ia,
he says that Mr.. j. M. Brown will be
nominated for the legislature by the
democrats. His information turned out
to be correct, but he was wise in not as
Stunning that Mr.. Brown will be elected.
Mr.. Brown may have been on the Clark
Peeler- Moore Legislative slate, but that
slate doesn't appear to be very popular
with the people at present and promises
to be even less so by the time election
day rolls around.

IF q nresident has been a good preSi-

If a president has been a good presi-
dent, there is no good reason why he
should not hold for eight years as well
as for four years. 1t is doubtful if the
desire for second term is not just as
strong an incentive to proper use OF fed
eral patronage as it is to an improper
use. The president who wants reelec-
ton will keep his record as clean as pos
sible. The president who does not want
reelection has no reason beyond his
personal honor to care rap about his
record as, for instance, Cleveland during
his second term. 1t will strike the aver
age citizen that there is just as much
danger of Bryan misusing the federal
patronage because he does not want a
second term, as there would be if he did
want it. But the danger in either case is
little. The people regardless of party
have learned to regard Bryan as an
honest man under all conditions.

Richard Croker bet more money yes
terday on Bryan, placing 10000 on the
democratic nominee to win. He got odds
of two to one. The former price was
two and half to one.
He had 100000 down already on the
proposition, and this last bet makes
100000 in all.
Edward Bell 4 Co., in Wall street, who
handle election bets when they are
passed out, took Mr.. Croker's money and
placed it.
Mr.. Mara, who is the Office man for the
firm, says Mr., Croker is convinced Bryan
will carry Ohio, Illinois, and New York,
and will therefore be president.
Al. Smith, who is popularity regarded
as very reliable bet-holder, has the
money.
The knowledge that Mr.. Croker has
100000 down on the democratic candi-
date has rearranged the betting there
not little. From 211s to the rates have
dropped suddenly to two to one, and
even greater drop is expected. The
brokers and other people who bet on
election matters regard Mr.. Crokers ac-
ton as staple tip in matters political,
and are placing their money accordingly.
Mr.. Bell declined to talk about the
matter yesterday and Al. Smith would
not say word.-New York Telegraph.

THE There is a political side to
COAL the strike of the anthracite
STRIKE. coal miners. 1t seems that
while they do not enjoy the satisfaction
of the full dinner pail" the fault is not
with the republican administration. The
Minneapolis Journal explains the situa-
ton as follows:
A good deal of anxiety is expressed
among prominent republicans here over
the threatened strike in the anthracite
coal region. 1t is believed the strike, if
it is ordered, will affect the republican
campaign unfavorably in all tho coal
states, but to what extent, of course, can
not yet be known, The republican man
ayers feel that the anthracite coal mine
as result of republican protective poll
cies, and always given SO niggardly to
republican campaign funds, should now
meet the miners half way in the attempt
to compromise the troubles. Pressure
to this end has been brought to bear,
but without success. The strike has a
larger political side than the public has
so far been given to understand.
Now, what an ungrateful lot those coal
mine owners are Here they have been
enjoying large benefits from the republi-
can protective policies and they have not
only been decidedly niggardly in their
contribution to republican campaign
funds, but now they have the opportu-
nifty to keep the miners quiet for few
months while the campaign is on, they
sullenly refuse to do SO and thus imperil
republican success in the coal states.
Oh, base ingratitude!
But the question somehow obtrudes
itself: How have the miners benefited
by the republican protective policies?
How can they have full dinner pals
for themselves and families on 80 cents a
day? The republican protective policy
has kept out foreign competition for the
coal mine owner, but has it kept out
competition for the coal miner? The
owner has grown rich under the republi-
can protective policy and the miner has
grown poor.
The miners have chosen their time
we'll. Theirs is an eloquent example of
how the protective tariff benefits the
workingman. Let the republican spell
binders explain. How does the protec-
tive tariff benefit the coal miners in
Pennsylvania?

for publishing the news because it print

because it declined to crowd out real

DON'T

DON'T 1t is freely charged, and
BE precedent and probability
CHEAP. support the charge, that dele
gates in last Saturdays convention were
bribed to vote for the legislative ticket
which was nominated. Others we're ap-
preached with offers, but declined them
The price of votes in the convention
ranged, it is said, all the way from $40 to
$50. the average being about $40.
Now the Bee would advise voters who
are holding their votes for sale, to at
least get the market price. Don't be
cheap. If your idea of American citi-
zenship is SO low that you can sell your
vote if you get your price, see that your
price is high enough. Delegates who
voted for the Clark legislative ticket
might just as we'll have had 500 or $50
as $40. There was the money here to
buy votes at as high as 500 each if nee
cssary, and anyone who took less than
that was foolish.
There is going to be desperate effort
to elect the Clark legislative ticket this
fall. There will be at least 100000 on
hand for that purpose. At a conserva.
tive estimate it will be necessary to pur
chase at least 500 votes in order to effect
such election. This will allow 500 for
each vote. The Bee does not believe
there are that many purchasable votes
in this county, but those who are ready
to sell should make sure that they get
the full price. If votes can be had for
less than 500 each it means Just so
much more for the bosses to shove down
into their jeans Of course they will try
to "bear" the market for their own tinan-
cial benefit, but those who have votes
for sale should stand out for the full
price. w. A. Clark is rich beyond the
dreams of avarice. His income is con
servatively estimated at s5,OOO,OOO a
year. He can afford to pay well. If the
voters don't get the money the bosses
will, If your vote is for sale this fall
you are entitled to at least 500. See
that you get it. Don't be buncoed.
