While our politicians are suffering
about the advantages and disauvant
ages of municipal ownership other

Gently by an overwhelming vote decid

panies. 1t has come to- pass that the
government Of this United States no
longer leads the worlds progress.
We are sill waliowiny in the darx-
ness and want produced by corpora
tiOn greed. and all OF the signs of the
times point To a continuation of these
conditions. There will yet come -
time when the people of this country
will run their own affairs instead of
delegating the management TO cOrpO-
rations. But the question is when?

The school book bill which the trust
was trying to get through this year
failed to become law. as we supposed
it had when commenting on it last
week. Enough republicans joined
with the populists and democrats to
kill it. The old law has worked re-
markably we'll for the short time it
has been tried, which is all the more
remarkable when we consider the COM
bined forces of the Opposition-the
republican machine and the book trust
makes a pretty hard combination to
buck. No one who understands the
matter is so foolish as to contend that
the books now in use are all of them
the best in the market. They are the
best offered TO the commission. 1t
must be remembered that the book
trust refused to offer its books on ac-
count of hostility to the law. When
they are fully satisfied that even the
republican party cannot muster Suf-
licient plant tools in one session to
secure the repeal of this law then it
will be but short time until we find
them trying to get their books in at
the prices we are authorized to pay.
Book men know that the prices are
high enough to cover cost and a reas-
enable profit, but the trouble with
these fellows is that they have been
accustomed to an unreasonable profit.
We hope that ere another Legislature
assemblies these fellows will have seen
the error of their ways and will get
into the market with their books.

The following editorial from the

remains to he seen if there is enough
life left in our Republic to regulate it.
''TRUsT GoBBLING TRUSTS
''The greatest evolution in the
world today is In money. Social, and
political, even moral, processes of
development move lamely 10 compari-
son with the latter-day manipulation
of money. On the old and simple rule
that money makes money, and more
money makes more money, the effort
at accumulation has had for ten years
the added effort of consoli-
dating accumulations until the possi-
BILE increment in money earning mou-
ey is beyond any ones comprehension.
The evolution has been headlong,
but it can he more 'precipitate. The

protection by absorption, or whatev-
er you may call it, will continue.
The NAV of the consolidation idea is
iimitless, it's APPETITE unending. The
small fry of individu ownership and
partnership is lost in the hollow of
the monsters teeth. A corporation
is hardly side dish. A bundle of
trusts it takes to make a square meal.
What will be the end of it! Croesus

EDUCATIONAL COLUMN,
By County Supt. L. z. Clark.

The present text book law will re-
main in force at least two years long
er' AT the opening of the Legislature
nothing seemed more certain thu n th at
the law would be repealed or greatly
modified. The State Teachers asso-
clatiOn by resolution and Governor
Stanley in his message recommended
changes, but, after spending much
time debating the matter, the legisla-
tors have gone home leaving the law
unchanged. The house passed the
Grattan bill which slightly raised the
maximum prices and provided for the
use Of.supplementary books, but it was
amended to such an extent that the
house refused TO concur. A joint con-
ference committee was appointed to
adjust matters, but was unable to eff
feet compromise before the time for
adjournment had arrived.
While it is to be regretted that some
of the weak points in the law were not
strengthened. teachers and patrons
have cause to be thankful that state
uniformity was not killed.
The five year contracts with the pub
fishers of the present text books will
expire Sept. L, 1902, at which time a
new board of commissioners will be
AT liberty to select a different set of
books.

HAS PASSED AWAY.
Death Of j. E. Van Gundy, a Deer
Lodge Pioneer.

j. E. Van Gundy an old and very popu-
lar citizen of Deer Lodge died suddenly
at his home yesterday morning. On
Saturday Mr.. Van Gundy had been at
tending to business as usual and returned
home about 2 o'clock in the afternoon
He complained then of feeling unwell but
as he was subject to heart trouble moth
ing serious was anticipated. During the
night however his condition became
worse and about daylight yesterday, he
died.
Mr.. Van Gundy was one of the pio-
neers Of Deer Lodge county. In the early
days he was engaged in business in the
Trefa and the Bear Gulch mining dis
tircts. With Ernest Muller he built the
Western brewery and after purcha sing the
interest of his partner he conducted the
business until about a year ago, when
he sold out and devoted his attention t.
his other business in Deer Lodge.
The deceased was one of the best known
men of the community. He was an
ardent republican, and an active worker
in the interests of the party. He was
the soul of honor and had large circle
| of friends in Butte.
He was a member of the Montana
Commandery. Knights Templar and the
members Of that body will act as an es-
cort at the funeral. About 20 members o!
the Butte Masonic fraternity will attend
the funeral which will be held tomorrow
at Deer Lodge at o'clock.

BILLION DOLLAR STOCK,
New Jersey Reaps Harvest in Filing
Their Papers.

Trenton, N. j., April 1.-The United
States Steel Corporation this afternoon
filed with the secretary of state articles
amending it's charter and increasing it's
capital stock to 81, 100 0OO,o 600. The states
fee for the filing of the papers was
$4,000 The original articles filed some
time ago were only amended in one par
ticular. This amendment was made for
the purpose of taking advantage Of an
act passed by the recent Legislature.
Originally the corporation could not
mortgage or pledge it's real property or
any of the stock of any other company
except by the affirmative voice of the
owners of two-thirds of the capital stock.
Under the amended charter, it is neces-
sary to have only the affirmative vote
of two-thirds of the stock represented in
person or by proxy at any meeting of
the corporation. The reason for the
change is the fear that the stock will
become scattered and it will be impos-
sible to get thirds of the entire
stock represented at meeting.

that the -Johnstown company owns an
eighth of the property and that HeinZe
owns fve-eighths, in addition to which
he is entitled to a one-tWentieth inter-
est. The plaintiffs ask the court to en-
Jnin the defendant from alleged tres
pass on the property through the under

beta and Piccolo claims. They ask to
be decreed the owners of all of the ore
bodies within the lines of the Minnie
Healy and placed in possession of them,
and request the court to compel the

claims adverse to them and then de-
clare it to have no right in the prem
lies.
