The Best of All.

Everyone who has used Baxter's
Mandrake Bitters as a spring remedy,
or for constipation, biliousness, foul
stomach, sick headache, impure blood,
pronounce it "the best of all medi-
cine' for those ailments. If you have
not used it, ask some of your friends
about it; the chances are that the first
person you ask will tell you that
there is no medicine so good for them
as Baxter's Mandrake Bitters. Get it
at any drug store for % cents. Guar
anteed to cure or money refunded.

Fhe English Clergy.

The steady and increasing diminu-
ton of the number of. candidates for
holy orders in the Church of England
is painful symptom. At the last Ad-
vent ordinations only 465 deacons and
priests were ordained as against 519
at the previous Advent. The serious
ness of this condition of affairs rises
out Of the fact that the population of
England is still increasing at the rate,
it is said, of 100000 per annum.-

HONOR TO WHOM HONOR.

Our fire department is a credit to the
city. On two recent occasions this de-
partment has shown remarkable skill in
saving buildings and keeping the fire
located in the spot it broke out. The
duties of firemen are both positive and
negative. Their first duty is naturally
to put out fire. but if there is no hope
of saving the building already in flames
the only thing to be done is to save
surrounding property and keep the fire
from spreading.
In the case of the Hall building, the
danger of the fire spreading and get
ting beyond control was imminent. Fort
street is narrow, and the buildings op-
posite were scorched and blistered by
the heat, ready to catch fire at any
moment. But the firemen kept a watch
full eye, and ever, as there was an in
cipient blaze, it was at once quenched.
Back of the Hall building was a lum-
Der yard. Had that once got afire there
would have been a clean sweep down to
the sea. 1t was not merely the lumber
in the lumber yard that was saved, but
1t was the immense property interests
that would have been menaced by the
conhagration of the lumber yard, that
were saved. Again splendid work was
done at the Levers and Cooke section,
which time and again took fire and
time and again were the flames beaten
and crushed out, till the place was a
veritable battle field between the
forces of fire and water, the victory
finally going to the latter.
So also at yesterday mornings fire,
though nothing could be done to save
the burning building, much could be
done and was done to save the sur
rounding property. Though the Stock
yards buildings were consumed to the
ground, the other building in the vicin-
ity, which again and again burst forth
into incipient flame, were so we'll
guarded by the firemen that no head
way could be made, and the fire was
kept within the limits.
While every credit must be given to
the whole fire department special credit
must be given to Chief Thurston. A
body without a head is certain to go
wrong. Mr.. Thurston has shown that
he has his men under perfect control,
and that he is man of judgment, who
can direct the force under his COM
mand, to the very best advantage. Mr..
Thurston is young man, but he has
shown that he carries a clear and ex-
perienced head upon his shoulders
Honor to whom honor is due Mr.
TlnrStOO and his frar,a0 oar+oi,1,, 4
serve credit and thanks from the COM
munity for doing their duty in a sensi-
bic and workmanlike manner.

The horse and the dog. out of all the
animal creation are the friends of man.
our literature shows how intimately
both of these are connected with man,
how they have sacrificed themselves for
man, and how man has in turn sacri-
feed himself for them upon occasion.
To the properly constituted man or
woman the horse and the dog are not
only adjuncts of the civilized life, but
they are the friends of the civilized life.
A well bred horse or a well bred dog
is a true friend.
To any one taking this view of hui
man nature and its relation to the faith
full and beautiful animals which were
exposed to the terrors of the conflagra-
ton and its tragic end, the scene of
yesterday, and the contemplation of it
afterwards must be inexpressibly sad.
There was almost nothing to be done
save a wild effort to cut ropes, and
drive the unwilling occupants from
their stalls, for curiously enough when
a fire takes places though a horse may
scream in a most heart rending man
ner, it is almost impossible to get it to
move away from where it is standing.
1t is stated that an automatic ar
rangement such as is used in cavalry
regiments should be used by such an in
stitution as the Stock Yards. BY this
means several dozens of horses are
locked up by one key, and by just turn
ing the catch the whole bunch can be
set free. But even this would have
been of little avail in this case. The fire
was so sudden and the poor animals
were so dazed. There is no one with
tender heart who does not feel for the
agony of those poor animals who were

STRENGTHENING OUT.

The political situation in this terri
tory is gradually Strengthening itself
out That after a change so radical
there should be much friction is not a
thlng to be surprised at. In time, how
ever, things will take their proper pro-
portions and there will cease to be that
undue weight given to petty and vene-
nous spite, which has marked the re-
cent phases of our political life.
Until we reach very much higher
plane, it is impossible to avoid the
venom and the misconstrIction of poli-
tical life. Unfortunately for republican
mankind the theory that every nan IN
Office is rogue, and that the Official
acts are dictated from the worst mo-
tlVes' is very thoroughly ingrained in
the public mind. One can SEE this in
the attacks upon our Presidents. men
whose administration, we now honor as
being inspired by the best Of motives
and the highest sense Of public duty.
we have been suffering from a very
severe attack of this matldy on these
islands. OF course there nave been nd
~ iiSH' "hp ueSife 10 a3SfdVate the
disease, who hope to find their own erus
out of the Earring elements. Such men
DO make a success for a time but how
signal is their ultimate failure. We
would think that a study of the failure
OF the past, would have some influence
upon the demagogue of the future. but
IL never has The demagogue struts
and fumes his little hour upon his LITTLE
stage and is happy, in his way, then
ne steps upon an unexpected trap and
descends out of sight breaking either
his neck. or his limbs, and one hears no
more about him. 'a~'
But though we, have dennagogues still
among US, one, can see a much better
and more conservative feeling grow
ing up amongst all our social sections.
The intense bitterness is wearing away.
IL would not last because human ma
ture however prone'to believe ill, is still
equally prone to believe good of its
fellow men. There seems now to be a
tendency to work together for the gen.
eral good and advancement of the Ter
11tory, and to meet together on a poli-
tical and economic platform which shall
De Tor the advantage of all, and not
Tor the exploiting of some small sec
tional difference.

That the cause of the fire which oc-
CURED in the Stock Yards should be
thoroughly investigated all will agree,
but few will agree that it is wise, with
out such investigation, to state what
was the cause of the fire. To say that
it was the act of an incendiary is to
point to a few men who may be per-
fectly innocent. The Star does not
claim that the fire was not the act of
an incendiary, but there should be good
evidence and not theory before so de-
finite charge is made. That we should
have a set of men here willing, for re-
venge, to destroy property upon such
an extended scale, will not add to the
confidence in our population, conf
dence which, for very strong financial
reasons, we have every reason to foster.

fire claims it does not look wise to
make compromise with any one. There
is no doubt from evidepce now before
the Commissioners that many claims
are grossly fraudulent. If these are so,
the others about which there is a talk
of compromise, may be discovered to be
fraudulent also. 1t would be the height
of folly to compromise without investi-
cation. If there is not time for in
vestigation under the present commits
sion, the uninvestigated claims must
wait till there is commission appoint
ed and paid which can investigate.

Fiat justitia ruat Coelum," let the
law be carried out though the heavens
fall, and we are now having a set of
murderers and rapers let loose from
prison, only to be gathered in by the
High Sheriff to be retired. The majority
in spite of the rearrest, will probably
get off, as it will be impossible to re-
collect the witnesses. Law certainly is
a fearful and wonderful thing. From
a legal point of view these men have
suffered an injustice. From a moral
point of view most of them got SEN
fences not fully adequate for their Of
fences, and their being freed is moral
outrage. But law and justice never
were the same thing, and a Judge is
seated on the bench to expound the
law, not to bother about justice.

The planters have gone home having
fixed upon maximum rate of wages,
which must not be exceed no matter
what the needs of plantation may be.
1t remains to be seen whether such a
policy can be carried out now. 1t should
have been prepared for as soon as the
change in the labor laws come. The
plantations made a great mistake when
they did not unite at once. 1t will be
harder to meet the labor situation now,
ago.

In visiting the leper settlement the
Board of Health should be accompanied
by two or three competent and un-
biased Hawaiian interpreters. The
Board should not depend upon it's own
officials as interpreters. If Judge Will

it would be of great advantage. He
thoroughly understands the Hawaiian
character, has perfect command of the
language and is remarkably shrewd.

Tuesday, July Is, will begin the most
wonderful exhibition ever seen on the
streets of the city of Butte. 1t will be
an exhibition on the streets in literal
sense, for the portion of Granite street
laying east of Main has been set aside
for the use of the Street Fair associa-
ton and will be turned into bower Of
loneliness and place of delight to young
and old. Already the giant arch that
marks the entrance to the street fair
has been completed and stands, white
ard radiant. inviting the public to the
interesting sights that may be seen with
in. Inside the massive arch are the
streets of Cairo and the Oriental The
alter ready TO swing wide their doors to
the public and other attractions of the
fair are almost completed.
The opening day of the fair will be
known as Governors day. Upon that
day Governor J. X. Toole and his staff
will be the guests of the fair associa-
ton at the Thornton hotel and will be
given charge of the formal opening of
the fair until Rex, The king of the car
nival takes command. The king of the
carnival will be given the great copper
key of the city from the mayor and with
a gorgeous retinue will proceed to the
coronation of the queen of the carni-
val.
Pretty Miss Araminta Steward of 303
South Idaho street has been, by an over
whelmins plurality, elected queen of the
carnival. The vote for queen closed
Thursday night and Miss Stewards vote
reached 10,623 votes. Miss Steward is
the daughter of ex-Alderman John Stew
ard, and has lived in Montana since
childhood.
The choice of the people for the queen
will meet with general approval by all
