JUDGE MOVES.

The Nome bar have united in an
unanimous protest against the con-
tinuance OF Judge Noyes in Office as
judge of that district and a protest
has been sent to President Mckinley.
THE most charitable Judgment of
Judge NOyes was expressed humorous
ly by a quick-witted citizen who call
ed my attention to method of writing
the name of the judge thus-"No-yes,"
and asked if the vacilliations and
uncertainties of his course were not
attributed to an inherent and inerad-
cable weakness of his character, rath-
er than to positive rascality, says a
Nome correspondent in the Seattle
Times. For some days | gave careful
study to the causes in court, with the
charitable purpose of giving the Judge
the benefit of the doubt, in determin-
lining whether vacillation or criminal
purpose was the keynote of his char
acter. His decisions, to which my at
tention was called; his postponements
of hearings, which had no apparent
purpose, so far as l could determine,
other than to defeat justice and wear
out honest litigants, the rogues mean
while having quick advance notice
from their attorneys that they need
not attend the postponed hearings.
as nothing would be done, finally led
me to dismiss as untenable that chart
table construction of the course of
the judge, which attributed the pro-
lection of criminals and the spoila-
ton of honest men to the inherent
weakness of the court. l have finally
reached the conclusion that a citizen
OF Nome was in essential right when
he summed up the situation thus:
you will understand that in all
mining towns there is a larger proper
ton OF what may be termed the Grim
inal, and semi-criminal classes than
Is apparent in older and more settled
communities. In Nome, unhappily, a
subdivision of these classes differs
somewhat from that usual in. other
mining communities. Here l should
subdivide them thus. beginning with
the most criminal and closing with
the least: First. federal officials; sec
0nd. shyster lawyers. third, claim
jumpers and kindred thieves; fourth
gamblers; nifty. prostitutes" The

AS TO VACCINATION,

The Great Falls Tribune is exercis-
ed over the report from it's Kalispell
correspondent that the trustees of
each OF several school districts in this
&C unity have refused to cooperate
with the state board in the latters
efforts to protect the public health
bv requiring the vaccination of all pu-
piIs in the public, private and paro-
chal schols of Montana. Flathead
county, says the Tribune, has achiev-
cd. considerable undesirable notoriety
through the conduct of several of it's
public officials, and seems destined to
have more of the same thrust upon it
by these trustees.
The Tribune is too hasty in it's con-
demnation and too confident of the
truth and veracity of its Kalispell
correspondent. The Bee has made
diligent inquiry into the truth of the
report as printed by the Tribune. and
can confidently assert that it has no
good foundation. If any of the trus-
tees of any of the school districts of
this county have refused to comply
with the order of the state board of
health relative to the vaccination of
school children, neither the chairman
OF the county board of health, the
county commissioners nor the coun-
~ superintendent of schools know
anything of such refusal On the
contrary these officials assure the
Bee that not only the school trustees,
but the parents of school children
throughout the county, have evinced
8 most cordial disposition to comply
with the order of the state board of
health and to cooperate in every way
| with the authorities 60 prevent an
ether outbreak of smallpox in this
county. Last winter and spring the
county commissioners authorized free
vaccination in several school districts
OF the county and the opportunity
thus afforded was largely embraced.
The Tribune need have no fear
about Flathead county officials enforc-
ing any rule calculated to prevent or
suppress an outbreak of SMALLPOX. II

BUSY KING EDWARD.

In an article on Rulers at Work."
Fritz Cunliffe-Owen makes some asser-
lions which will tax the credulity of
the most credulous. For instance, he
says that King Edward is required to
sign about 400 documents per day and
that he never signs ony one of them
until he has thoroughly mastered"
its contents. Unfortunately Mr.. Cum
liffe-Owen does not enumerate these
documents so that the reader might
form some estimate as to the tim !.
necessary for a man of ordinary capa-
city to thoroughly master" the con-
tents Of each of them. But supposing
that King Edward works steadily at
his desk for ten hours each day and
signs 400 documents, he would be
able to give just exactly minute and
half to the thorough mastery Of
each of them. But this reading and
signing of 400 documents every day
constitutes but a small part of hing
Edwards work day. lie receives and
reads all the dispatches from abroad
and there is constant succession"
of them, according 10 this authority.
There are also interviews to be
granted to foreign ENJOYS, persons
connected with the administration of
the kings household, as well as to
men eminent in art, literature and
science. and each of these interviews
means the transaction OF important
business" Besides all this there is
the command of the army and navy
which receives the king personal at
tentiOn as well rs the "marLyrdom"
of social leadership which is sufficient
to occupy the attention of several
men. King Edwards principal duty
as a society leader, according to Cum
litfe-Owen, is to maintain high NOR
al standard" Unless the old adage
that you cannot teach an old dog new
tricks" has proven fai,acy in King
Edwards case, one can quite believe
that he finds ii hard work to main
tain the high moral standard set in
social matters by his illustrious moth
er, but in support of his serious ef-
forts, witness his recent snubbing OF
Nine. Rcjane in pubic and his subse-
quent reception and presentation OF
a ring to her in private.
In fact, were it not that picture
OF President Mckinley adorns the title
page of his article, one would almost
be tempted to hail Cunlilfe- owen as a
new star in the realm Of humor, for
he goes on to say that IF the army
proves defective and inefficient in
hour Of need, it is not the government,
but the monarch, as it's supreme chief,
who Is held responsive by the PEG
pie Poor King Edward. How on
earth he ever managed to spare time
to attend his sisters funeral in Ger
many recently or how he can posi- |
bly, find time to take SO much interest
IN the welfare OF Mrs. I.angtry's beau |
tful daughter, or, .or that matter
how he can possibly spare time to |
eat, drink and be merry will be
matter OF great wonderment to the |
average reader after perlsal of |
Fritz CunliifeOwen on Rulers at |
Work."

ped or grown in such large quau' tiles,
as the apple. The apple is the s,aple
fruit of America: also as common as
potatoes and grown over far wider
range than any other. With the open
ing OF the apple season. the inspectors
have doubled their efforts, and not a
crate Of the fruit goes on sale with
out their approval.
Butte is by far the largest fruit
market in the state of Montana; in
deed. a great deal of the fruit that
appears in the markets of other towns
in the state is first handled in this
city. in carload lots. All the fruit
coming here Is carefully inspected;
passed if there is no evidence of in
sect pests or fruit diseases, condemn
ed and destroyed if it is not what it
should be. More than a carload of
apples have been destroyed since the
beginning of the season. The ap-
pies and any other fruit that may be
found wanting. are taken to the city
crematory, south of the city, dumped
into the great furnace, and burned to
ashes, to destroy the last trace of what
might infect Montana orchards and
trouble or even ruin the fruit growing
industry of the state.
Apple growing is by far the largest
of the fruit industries of the state,
the insect pests that trouble this fruit
are given special attention. Chief
among the pests that may appear to
ruin the orchardist's crop. are the cod
ling moth and the San Jose scale.
The cooling moth is the well known
apple worm, which affects the apple
and the pear, or sOft-seeded fruits.

BRIBERY OF NEGROES
Peculiar Case Under Fif-

Motion Filed in Supreme Court For Writ of
Certio,ari in United States VS.
c. G Lackey.
(By the Associated Press.)

Washington, May 13.-Solicitor General
Richards today filed motion in the
United States Supreme court for a writ
Of ccrtforari in the case Of the United
States vsf G. e. Lackey. The case in
wolves a peculiar legal question, and also
the constitutionality of section $50 Re-
vised Statutes providing for the punish
ment of any person found guilty of pre-
venting the benefciaries under the Fiji
teenth Amendment to the Constitution
from exercising the right of franchise by
bribery. Lackey was prosecuted for keep
ing a number of colored people from the
polls by bribery in a State election in
Kentucky. In the Kentucky Federal Dis
trict court a conviction was secured, but
the Court of Appeals reversed this de-
cision on the ground that the law is un-
constitutional. Mr.. Richards admits that
the case being criminal he doubts wheth
er the Supreme court has jurisdiction to
review the decision of the court of Ap-
peals, but expressed a desire to have
that point passed upon, and saying that
if it is not the law will stand abrogated.

discipline trying to prevent sickness, and
of caring for those who are sick. 1t is I'M
possibIe to render ten thousand or more
people homeless without extreme SUI

fully with the situation. Only those

danger of sickness from the hudled
condition of the people, making the
situation here alarming. 1t viii take

THE MACHINISTS LEAD

STATEMENT BY PRESIDENT OCCNNELL
He Says the Employees Refuse TO Arbitrate The
Question Nationally and That no 0ther
Arrangement will be Satisfactory
10 the Machinisls,
to the Machinisls.
(By the Associated Press

Washington, May IA general
strike, involving directly 10000 ma
chinists and indirectly 100000 men in
the metal trade. is expected to take
place on May 20, unless some arrange
ment is effected in the meantime
This is the statement made tonight
by President James O'Connell, of the
international Association Of Machinists,
who has headquarters in this city. The
demands of the men, the refusal OF
which threatens to precipitate the strike.
Mr.. O'Connell said, are for working
day of nine hours and an increase of
1215 per cent in wages or, in other
words, ten hours pay for nine hours
work The matter he said, has been
under consideration for some time and
every effort has been made by the ma
chinists' association to avoid resorting
to strike. but such action, he says,
is no Unnecessary if the working men
hope to attain the end they are striv-
ing for.
Yesterday the Representatives Of the
Metal Trades Association and the In
ternational Association Of Machinists
held conference in New York, at
which an attempt was made to reach an
agreement on the wage matter, so that
the strike proposed for May 20 could
be avoided. MIR. O'Connell, however,
says that the Employers refused to ar
bitrate the question of wages nation
ally, but that they expressed a will
lingness that this matter should be set
tied by employers locally, each individ-
ual case to be treated as such. This
method is unsatisfactory to the repre-
sentatives of the Machinists Associa-
ton, who express the opinion that this
would prolong indefinitely the settle
ment of the question. Upon his return
to the city OConnell promptly pre-
pared the order for the strike and II
was sent out by mail today.
Mr.. O'Connell says that about two
hundred firms, whose employees rep
resent probably 20 per cent of the 50O.-
600 men who will be affected by the pro-
posed strike, have signed agreements
for the reduction in hours of labor ana
the increase of pay.
