supreme court, as telegraphed In brief to
the Inter Mountain yesterday, granting
a new trial to q. R. Shadwel for the al
legged murder of O'Connor, was prepared
by Associate Justice Pigott.
The court confines itself largely to
discussion of the obnoxious instruction
of the lower court. which was designated
as instruction No. 26, relating to the
right Of the jury to take into considera-
ton any threats that O'Connor made
against the accused.
This instruction was as follows: "The
court instructs the Jury that no threat
or menace by the deceased O'Connor
against the defendant, Shadwell. can
avail the defendant, unless he at the
time of the killing was actually assailed
or had sufficient evidence to convince
any reasonable person that he was in
danger of mourning great bodily injury
or of losing his life at the hands Of the
deceased.
wherever threats may have been
made by the deceased they cannot be of
avail to the defendant unless at the time
of the killing something was done that
would induce a reasonable man to sup
pose that he was in danger of bodily
harm or of losing his life.
"A
upon the facts at the time of the killing,
and in order to justify the homicide it
must appear at the time Of the killing
! that there was some action which would
| induce a reasonable man to believe that
he was in danger of great bodily harm or
of losing his life.
This instruction, the defendant In
sists, is an erroneous statement of the
law, as applicable to the evidence, and
that it is in conflict with instruction No.
81" says the court.
| I'VE must sustain the contention. The
instruction quoted virtually directed the
Jury to disregard all prior threats of
the decedent against the defendant UNI
Lless something was done or some action
taken by the decedent which would in
duce a reasonable man to believe himself
in danger of great bodily harm or of los
ing his life: that the conduct of the de.
cedent at the time of the killing must OF
| itself and independently Of the antece-
| dent threats have been sufficient to con-
| vince a reasonable person that he was in
danger Of great bodily harm or Of losing
his life at the hands Of the decedent."

colonel is a good man and his cow is an
excellent COW, but unfortunately, the
Jersey is wanderer by nature and de-
lights to browse on a handsome lawn.
One lawn owner became exasperated
at visits from the cOlOnels COW, and de-
termined that the next time "bossy"
visited his lawn she should go to the city
pound.
The Jersey came, and the lawn ownC
caught her and fastened her to tree,
waiting the arrival of the pound officer.
Presently the colonel appeared and en-
gagged the irate lawn owner in conversa-
ton.
Fine lawn you have" said the colonel.

her back and tie her up there, and you
can send her to the pound then"

the legislature, Governor Toole said in
part:
eff I called the legislature In extra
ordinary session, it would be for no
other purpose than to provide for an ex-
hibition at the Worlds fair at st. Louis
in April. 1908.
IT would not, under the circumstances,
make the call if it involved the usual
expense of mileage and per diem. I
have communicated directly and indi-
rectly with a great many people OF the
state and the sentiment is practically
unanimous for proper representation
at St. Louis. It seems altogether prob
able, from expressions have seen in the
public press. that large majority OF
members would serve for few days
without mileage or per diem. Such pa
trlotism is highly commendable and I
am sure will be fully appreciated by their
respective constituents, but, after all,
the question is one Of ability on the part
of the state.
"Our constitution was adopted upon
the theory of administering our state
upon cash basis, theory not always
adhered to. I understand, of course,
that in an emergency we may create
an indebtedness, which, singly or in the
aggregate with any existing debt or
liability, does not exceed 100000. but In
order to justify this indebtedness the
necessity ought to be apparent and i'm
peratiVe."

HENRY CLEWs' LETTER.
New York Einancier Writes of Poll
tics and Stocks.
(By Associated Press.)

(By Associated PresS.)
New York, Nov. 5.-In a special cir
cuar letter, dated November 2, Henry
Clews, the noted financier and stock
market expert, uses the following lam
guage:
Congress opens in about a month.
and the prospects are that we shall have
little disturbing legislation. The nation
is busy and contented and the party in
power will be disposed to let well enough
alone and occupy itself chiefly with in
ternational affairs, such as the Isthmian
canal, Cuba, etc. Upon the questions Of
tariff, reciprocity, currency and trusts
there may be some talk but little action.
1t is in periods of idleness and discon-
tent that we look for interference with
business at Washington.
THE future of the market seems some
what confused. 1t is bright in spots and
clouded in others, and seems likely to
continue irregular, with no pronounced
changes in either direction, until the
leaders In the various deals who have
stocks to sell get ready to give prices
another lift. There will be plenty of
money to invest this winter, and
good securities are exceedingly scarce
recent offerings being promptly taken
This Is one of the most encouraging
features Of the entire situation"

CLINTON IS MERRY
WORK WILL RESUME ON THE
"HoUsE PROSPECTS"
GRANT EXTENSION OF LEASE
New York Syndicate Will Sink New
Shaft-dood Times Again As
sured in the Young MIN
ing Camp.

Especial to Inter Mountain)
Missoula, Nov. 5.-Yesterday work be-
gan in earnest on the House group OF
mines near Clinton, the owners having
granted an extension Of lease and bond.
This extension was a surprise to most
everyone, as the owners had claimed
they would not give the New York syn
dictate another chance. but they did a
good thing for the camp when they de-
cided to allow prospecting to continue.
1t was agreed, however, when further
time was granted, that sinking should
not continue in the present shaft, down
300 feet, but on the ledge, which is
reached through a crosscut.
It is the intention of Superintendent
Porter to sink 300 feet on the ledge, and
at that depth, If mine is not discov-
cred, work will be abandoned.
Good Times Assured.
Work will be prosecuted with vigor.
and sufficient number of men employed
to insure fairly good times in Clinton
during the winter.
Having profited by mistakes in sink
ing near the Nome, Superintendent
Porter proposes to avoid all such in the
future.
New machinery will be installed as
soon as possible and vigorous search for
the mineral wealth old prospectors are
confident can be found will be continued.
The black cloud that hung over Clin-
ton has lifted and will remain below the
horizon until next July, at least, when
the bond extension expires.
Butte Miners Take Contract.
It is rumored that County Clerk Wiki
tnson, Deputy Cave and others interested
in Clinton prospects. have contracted
with two Butte miners to sink a 300-foot
shaft on one of their properties.
For the work the owners will pay but
$50 foot, which is considered very
reasonable, as work of the same kind
has cost others in that district $50 foot
49, Clintonians insist that they are all
right.

Field movements outlined in my

that any of the volunteers will be re-

pose of the department in regard to
army legislation and the prospect OF
the passage of an army bill would
greatly strengthen my administration
here. MACARTHUR.
The United Stat es army has been
engaged over two years in endeavor-
ing to subjugate the struggling Fill
pinos, and the war was declared
lover" one year ago. Yet here we
find that '.tield movements are still
going on-that more troops are
needed that the result of the election
did not pan outaccording to program.
and that it was necessary to deport
prominent leaders in order to put a
stop to the war and reconcile the
Filipinos to their fate. But the latest
dispatches show that thousands of
them are still struggling for freedom,
and will not be reconciled to foreign
rule.

AUTHORITY Is ABSOLUTE.

Through the army organization bill
the administration has obtained the
Legislation necessary for the formation
of large standing army upon per-
manent basis. Much ridicule has
been launched by the servile admins
tration press at those who forsee some
danger to the republic in this new de-
parture.
The controversy, however, says the
New York Telegraph, is the same
which in England led to the decapita-
ton of Charles /, and the establish
ment of the commonwealth. AS COM
pared with the demands made by
Messrs. Mckinley and Hanna upon
the national legislature the demands
made by that unfortunate monarch
were mild and unpretentious. AS a
fact, Charles / lost his head for ask
ing less than Senator Platt demands
from the legislators of New York.
1t can also be said that had the
English king found in the house of
commons such willing and subservi-
ent men as are found in the state
Legislature and in congress the Eng
fish government today would be an
absolute monarchy and civilization
would have been retarded to an ines
Unable degree. We have talked of
liberty in this country until the
phrase has become meaningless to an
Indifferent public, and the steady en-
croachments of centralized govern
mental authority has resulted in such
REIMBURSEMENT of personal rights that
citizenship has almost lost it's value
and independence is Intellectual and
without purpose.
President Mckinley has gone
further than any other president of
the United States in asking that he be
clothed with absolute authority to
deal with public matters as he sees fit.
And what is more remarkable still, is
that however exacting have been his
demands, the congress of the United
States, dominated by the republican
party and controlled. therefore, by
the organization formed by Hanna,
has been willing to give even more
than has been asked.
Had such body of legislators oc-
cupied the English house of commons
at the time when English liberty was
established through the downfall of
royalty, the entire history of the
world might have been different.
