10 you our sympathy In the loss of your
sister. Miss Merrill loss so great that
words seem to belittle II and silence TO be
the only proper speech Yet words are
the only means We have of letting you
know that we sorrow with you. In addi-

which all who knew Miss Merrill must feel,
we mourn her as a member of the Contem-
porary Club. and as its president. an Of

appearance before the larger public OF In

Merrill was. she attended all the bust
ness meetings OF the board and shirked
none OF what must have been tc her the
frksome details. This is only one instance
OF that patient fidelity TO the duty OF the
hour. that scrupulousness in little matters
which was so characteristic or her. TO

I'VE have only noble and beautiful men,

We have made most deplorable departure, under this administration, from the International policy that made us the greatest and most envied of nations. We are apparently on the eve of imperialism. We threaten the attempt to assimilate an empire and republic. We have served notice on the world that we think more of pro- tection than of our boasted love of human liberty and equality. If this be done, we shall have forfeited the moral right to insist that the main- tenance of republics in South and Central America must not be inter- fered with by the powers of the old world. We are deliberately inviting all sorts of trouble.-Detroit Free Press.

The Fleets at Manila.

The question whether Admiral Dewey's fleet at Manila was superior to that of Admiral Montojo was recent ly brought before the court of claims to determine the amount of prize money due Admiral Dewey and his men. Un- der the law, if the victorious fleet was superior in strength to the vanquished one, the prize money to be distributed would be reckoned at the rate of $i00 for every man on board the enemys vessels which were sunk; but if the vic torious fleet was only of equal or ln- ferior strength, the amount would be doubled. It was argued on behalf of Admiral Dewey and his crews that the shore forts, mines and torpedoes should be taken into account in reckoning the Spanish strength, but the court could ind no warrant for including them, and 60 fixed the award at the smaller sun Youths Companion.

ADOLPH PATTERsn,
TRUST AGAINST TRUST.
rue htIobiican Hun About Action AsniEst the Monopoiistic
 Comb,nes

The republican party, which, accord ing to one of its ablest opponents. ai- ways knows how to get out of its dilem- mas, realizes that something startling Will have to be done, and done at once. to assure the American people that it IS opposed to the trusts. The size of the undertaking it proposes may we'll be realized from the condition of pub- lie sentiment throughout the country at the present time. The relations be- tween the administration and the Standard Oil bank in New York; the abandonment of the presidents free trace position with regard to Porto Rico, on the demand of other trusts: the exposure of the Idaho bull pen hor. TOTS inflicted upon American miners by negro soldiers employed for the purpose at the dictation of trust mag nates-these and other like develop ments have made it indeed no easy task for the party in power, placed in power by and for the benefit of the trusts. to convince the citizenship of the United States that it's dearest wish is to throt- tie and destroy the thing upon which 1t lives and thrives, and 10 which it owes allegiance unlimited by buman- ity, honor, law or constitution. When the republican party talks about ac- tion against the trusts it is too much like casting out devils, in the name of Beelzebub, prince of devils," not to be humorous.
 Still, the party of Hanna, Rockefel- Ter & Co. is not without effront- cry, among it's other virtues, and it se- riously proposes an attempt to con- vince American voters that if once more trusted with control of national affairs it will never sleep until the last trust is rooted out of the union. In order that there shall be no question of re- publican good faith, or that MT. McKin- ley is not sturdy antitrust man, just as in 1896 he was a bimetallist and a civil service reformer, the proprietors of the administration are being urged to keep their profits and operations as much under cover as possible until after the presidential election. This method of assuaging public wrath is being pushed to the extent of inducing the warning partners in the Carnegie trust to postpone their litigation until next winter, when the fact that pro- tected infant industry can make a profit of 42,O0o,Oo0 in one year out of the gold mine of Dingleyism will be no longer harmful to the party for immediate purposes.
 The republican brethren are good, or mean to be; but it is strictly post facto goodness that they intend. They will only attempt to crush the hydra headed monster of monopoly with a constitutional amendment, which they will kill as soon as the proposition has served it's purpose in the campaign Washington Times.

The neatness with which the re- publicans have spiked all their guns in this Porto Rican affair is illustrated when one analyses the desperate claim that tariff on island goods is neces- sary to prevent the United States from being flooded with cheap products, and the American laboring man from be- ing smothered under the competition of tropical cheap labor If free trade with Porto Rico means such dreadful things. why in the name of sanity has bill just passed the senate providing for absolute free trade with Hawaii? Ha- waii is tropical, and it is full of Jap anese and Chinese coolies, who supply the cheapest labor in the world. Does Senator Hanna maintain that the Amer ican laboring man has nothing to fear from free trade with Hawaii, while free trade with Porto Rico would mean his ruin? Come, Mir Hanna, treat the American people as if they had some little intelligence.-Springfield Repub- lican.

REGISTRATION WILL PROBABLY
REACH $4,000 THIS YEAR.

The registration today has been light
and will probably not exceed 1900 names
it is expected that 1t will not be much
greater tomorrow. 1t will swing along
easily until three or four days of the
time for closing and then as usual there
will be a rush.
During the first three days 1000 persons
registered and on the fourth day this
number was increased to 1854 in Butte
ana It's immediate vicinity. The second,
thlrd and fifth wards have been heavily
registered but it is only normal for the
reason that those registration districts
are very large. u
The total registration this year will
probably be in the ne%ighborhood of Is, 600
as gains 1890 two years ago. Two
years ago the total vote cast was 13, 294
n in about the same proportion there
should be fully 1900 votes cast at the
coming election. "a.
1t is claimed that the large In
crease in the registration is due in
great part to the natural increase
OF voting population. It is calculated
that during the past two years l.
aoo young men have attained their
