Herpicide Is Used to Cure Dandruff.

E. Fl. Lyons, New York, N. Y, says:
'I am very fond Of Herpicide and en-
joy using it, 1t is refreshing"
DR.. j. H Bush, Toledo, Ohio, writes
"Newbro's Herpicide has given better
satisfaction than anything I have ever
used"
Mrs. Borkey Of Chadron, Nebr.. says Of
Herpicide:
"It cleaned my head Of dandruff and

THE NASHVILLE EPISODE.

Interesting news is that which tells OF
an encounter between the police OF
Nashville, Tenn, and desperate man
supposed to be one of the gang Of rob-
bers which held up the Great Northern
train near Wagner in northern Mon
tana last July. The fact that the fugi-
tive threw away a package of bills lden-
titled as part of the plunder of the
wrecked express car is alone sufficient to
esta blish his connection with The rob-
bers. Residents of Montana Will view
with great deal of satisfaction the ap-
prehension and conviction of the BAN
dts. The train robbing industry needs
the discouraging influence of speedy
justice to relegate it to its proper place
in the list of crimes. Recent escapades
of the men who hold UP trains have en-
coura ged the belief that this species of
crime is attended by little danger and
small chance Of punishment

TREACnEROUS NATIVES.

The associated press report today re-
lates the substance of an interview with
an officer of the Ninth regiment relative
to the character of the natives in the
island of Sanlar The bolo men are said
to be the most treacherous of all the
divisions of the Brown race. Contrasted
with the North American Indian they are
pronounced vastly inferior in point
of personal bravery and in all the sub
t1erles OF rrearuery they .---> g
ters. Not until the native forces in the
island of Samar are whipped into sub
lection will trouble in the Philippines be
at an end. The men of the Ninth regi-
ment who fell into the trap prepared by
the treacherous natives suffered severely
from their lack of complete knowledge
of Filipino character and the remainder
of the campaign on the island will doubt
less be conducted with severity that
Will impress upon the natives the stern
penalty that follows treachery.

TOMORROW CzOlGOSz DlfS.

Before many more hours have passed
Leon Czolgosz will have paid the extreme
penalty of the law for the murder of
President Mckinley. Announcement is
made that the execution will be con-
Quoted with strict privacy, only the
number Of witnesses required by law
being allowed inside the enclosure where
the murderer is sent on his journey to
the other world. Every precaution will
be taken to prevent the qualification OF
the appetites of that part of the public
which is hungry for the sensational.
Czolgosz will doubtless go to the electric
chair with the same stolid Indifference
to his fate which he has exhibited since
he committed his crime. There will be
no audience to admire his bravado, how
ever, and whatever exhibition of nerve
he may give will be lost upon the un-
sympathetic jurors chosen by the law
to see him die. The policy of secrecy in
connection with the execution Of Czol-
gosz will go a long way toward prevent
ing such crimes as he committed. His
conviction have had none of the ele-
ments Of the mock heroic about them
which are so gratifying to criminals Of
his stamp. His execution will put an
end to his life in a manner which will
leave nothing attractive about his brief
career of crime to induce seekers for no.
toriety to follow in his footsteps.

menting upon the length of time which
has elapsed since agitation in favor OF
a trans -isthmian canal first began, the
New York Herald contributes the fol-
lowing historical data:
The project for trans-isthmian canal.
connecting the Atlantic and Pacific. Is
much older than the United States. Sur
veys for a route via Panama were mace
by Spanish engineers as far back as
1927. The Spanish government almost
made up its mind to undertake the en-
terprise in 1899. The utilization of Lake
Nicaragua and the San Juan river as
parts of a great waterway was sug-
gested by a Portuguese naviga or, An
tonic Galvano, in 1850, and Spain had
got SO far as to make surveys OF the
route by 1881. The two routes we are
still discussing antagonized one an
other to the paralysis of the whole pro-
ject far more than a century ago. Three
centuries and more have passed since
the world began to appreciate the
enormous value of an undertaking which
even now has not by either of the two
routes passed much beyond the intro
ductory stage of construction.
The statement contained in today's
news concerning the compact between
Mr. Choate and representatives OF En-
gland revives the discussion relative TO
the governments attitude during Clay's
term as secretary of state. The dispatch
is significant and will not be without in
terested readers in circles where inter-
national affairs claim attention.

Today's dispatches contain the pre-
diction that Miss Stone, the missionary
captured by brigands, will be found
and released within ten days. Interna-
tional complications between Turkey
and Bulgaria have made the search ex-
tremely tedious. The former govern
ment is anxious that the captive be
found on Bulgarian soil and the latter
equally anxious that responsibility be
avoided by the discovery of the alb
Quoted missionary on Turkish territory.
This mutual suspicion and rivalry on
the part Of Turkey and Bulgaria is one

progress that has been made toward
securing the release of the unfortunate

TECHNICAL PROCEEDINGS.
Several Cases Heard in Judge Har-
ney's Court Saturday.

In Judge Harney's court Saturday
technical matters had the floor. The pro-
ceedings were mostly law. The lawyers
occupied the attention of the court in
presenting occult problems.
In the motion to strike out in the
case of the Butte Land & Investment
company against c. A. Plumley, argu-
ments We're heard and the matter was
overruled.
In the case of Dora Osmers against
James B. Furey a demurrer was heard
and overruled. The defendant was given
20 days in which to answer. This is a
damage suit against the sheriff. .
The demurrer of the defendant in the
suit of George H. Spencer, trustee.
against Thomas Rowan, was overruled
on account of the defendant failing to
appear.
The demurrer in the case of Sam Kift
against Louis Mason ct al. was argued
and submitted.
The demurrer in the suit of D. D.
Nichols against George Metcalf was
continued to November 2, and the case
of G. w. Carlman against Nick Hughes
to November 9.

Dispatches from Seattle today tell OF
further gold shipments from Alaskan
points. Excerpts from statistical ac-
counts now in course of preparation
show that during the past four months
Alaska has contributed $21, 900 to
swell the total of the worlds yellow
metal. There is every sign of encour-
agement from an economical and indus
trial point of view in this steady in
crease of the gold supply coming down
from the north. The worlds supply of
gold has increased and is increasing in
a gratifying way. keeping pace with the

Mention is made in today's news of
the imports Of American goods into far
off Russia 1t is stated that during the
ports of American goods at Russian GUS
tom houses reached the very satisfac-
tory figure of 22,777,OO0 roubles. Not so
very long ago trade in Russia was COM
paratively little valued and the re-
markable increase in the shipments of
our products to that country gives graft
flying proof Of the expansion Of Amer
lean commerce. There is every indica-
tion that the present year will roll up the
most amazing total of foreign trade the
history of the world has known.

A BRIGHT OUTLOOK.

Today the mines which We're closed
few days ago by an accident at the Ana
conda concentrator resumed work once
more. The repairs necessary to start
the concentrator were made in the
briefest possible space of time, and the
men rendered temporarily idle by the
ehut-down are at work again. The
industrial world has never pro-
duced rival for the Greatest Mining
Camp on Earth, and it will be an
amazing thing if the time shall ever
come when a greater industrial center
shall be known. In point Of rapid de-
velopment. high wages and rich rewards
for investors Butte holds the premier
place among the worlds mining centers.
Those who pinned their faith to Butte
and aided in the city's development have
taken part in a great work. Those who
lay plans to reap the benefits of the con-
tinued growth of the city will be wise.
The temporary suspension of work on
account of the accident at Anaconda
and the haste and impatience with which
the break was repaired and work re-
suned testifies to the marvellous energy
that is pushing forward the development
Of Buttes mineral resources. The pros
poets east of the city have furnished
abundant proof that new mines will be
made soon which will add immensely to
the pay-rolls of the camp. stimulate the
city's business, furnish employment to
labor and yield profits to investors. The
outlook at present has the most encour.
aging aspect seen since the marvels of
Butte first began to be appreciated.

sonal property of the estate was of the
value of $780, and that the debts amounted
to $1,45O. No provision had been made
for the heirs or the payment of the debts.

the property has increased since the ap-
praisement to $500.

for the property now?" the court asked.

The Advocate Of Peace comments ia
vorably on the German emperor's modi-
fled speech in receiving China's apollo
getic delegation. but adds that If there
were complete and honorable clearing
up of old scores between the two gov-'
ernments another mission Of a very d6-
ferent kind would take place and that
Germany would send an envoy to return
Kiao-Chau to China with apologies.
Doubtless the Advocate of Peace knows
very well that such counsels fall on deaf
ears in this age. The departure Of such
a mission from Germany could not be
safely predicted for any date earlier than
the Greek kalends or still later. Such
a mission would be altruistic. and neith-
er the kaiser nor his subjects are al
TRUSTS. The kind of German who today
has very decided opinions as to the
value of Kiao-Chau Is not likely to be
squeamish as to the methods by which
Germany got it. Such a patriot has no
sense Of humor and would be likely to
be very indignant at Er Trueblood's sug
gestion that it should be given back to
China. The place itself represents little
in the way of commerce, present or fu-
ture. 1t calls for great deal of money
for improvements and earns little: but

speakable.
The friends OF peace recognize that

altruism. But Germany asks IL she We're
to give up Kiao- -Chau what guarantee is
there that the other nations with pos
sessions" in China would not take ad-
vantage Of her to enlarge their own hold
ings. Great Britain holds Hong Kong,
France has Tonquin. Russia virtually
rules Manchuria. These nations would
regard Germany's return Of Kiao-Chau
simply as relieving them of a rival on
the spot and cOrrespondingly freeing
their hands.
OF the really great powers interested
in the Chinese question the United States
is the only one that neither has nor de-
sires territory in China. We are free
from all the entanglements that such
possessions create. and we are all the
stronger at Pekin for that fact. We have
the right to crticise the grab policy. We
alone have nothing to regret in what We
did in China. and we are the one power
to whom China would willingly grant
concessions.

ITS AN OLD PROJECT.

Gable news from Paris in today's press
report tells of am announcement made
by the Figaro that Ambassador
Choate and Lords I.ansdowne and
Pauncefote have agreed upon treaty
stipalations which will guarantee the
neutrality of the trans-isthmian canal.
This stipulation will apply. it is said.
not only to the Nicaraguan canal but to
all other canals of which the United
States may become possessed.
Concerning the canal neutrality there
is much historic data being re-
vived. In the archives of the United
States government documents are found
bearing upon this important subject and
urging the construction of waterway
across the isthmus with fully as great
yigor as present day statesmen use. In
1926 Henry Clay. secretary Of state,
penned remarkable sentence with rela-
ton to the project. He said "if a canal
across the isthmus be opened so as to
admit of sea vessels from ocean to
ocean, the benefits of it ought not to be
exclusively appropriated to any one ma
1lOus Out SuOuIu Ue eAIeuUeu TO all parts
Of the GLOBE" 1t is to this precedent of
long standing that Senator Frye now
turns to support his belief that the
trans-isthmian canal should be neutral
In one way or another the project of a
trans-isthmian waterway has been be-
fore congress in one form or another
1t is plainly shown by reference 10 docu-
ments prepared in the early history of
the canal project that in contemplating
the construction of the canal the United
States viewed itself as trustee for the
benefit of the world. Since a narrower
and more practical view was taken of
the undertaking the arrangements for
beginning construction have progressed
faster and prospects for connecting the
two oceans by an artificial waterway
have frightened appreciably. Com
