A Horse AbattOir.

Portland, Ore (SpeciaD The horse
abattoir at Linnton which was shut
down last fall, has started up again As
conditions are now more favorable for
its successful operation, it is likely to
be kept running indefinitely. About 800
cayuse ponies have been sent in from
the ranges, and it is probable that 10000
will be slaughtered this year 1t is
estimated that there are more than soo,-
600 cayuse ponies ranging over the
country tributary to this market The
stockmen are very anxious that these
horses should be driven away to pre-
serve the ranges to cattle and sheep.
Horse meat has found favor in Sweden

ANOTHER MOVE TOWARD PEACE.

Still Refuses.

London (By Cable).-The following
censored dispatch received from Cape
town is received with a grain OF salt in
view OF the fact, announced in Parlia-
ment, that Kitchener, and not Botha,
began the recent peace negotiations
which failed
General Botha has reopened nego-
tiations with the British for peace it
is understood here that altough Cen
eral De Wet in his recent interview
with Botha refused to surrender, yet
Botha, regarding him as irresponsible,
undertakes to negotiate in behalf OF the
entire Boer forces. The British authori-
ties here consider that if Botha sur
renders De Vets following can be
easily taken,
"As explained here, this action was
determined in part by Botha's discov-
cry at a recent meeting that De Wets
intellect had weakened and that his in
fluence with his followers was diminish
ing, and that a continuance of the cam
paign, in view OF De Vets irresponSi-
bility, rested with Botha alone"
Regarding General De Vets mental
condition, reports have been conflicting
for some time. His recent seeming in
activity, it is said in London, points to
there being some truth in the rumors
which alege that long continued hard
ships, under the harassing British pur
suit, have unhinged his mind. But it is
we'll known that Lord Kitchener has
been suppressing news Of De Vets re-

Mr.. Wolcott thought congress had

hazed won name and fame, while
others went from bad to worse, some
even landing finally in the senate OF
the United States. In conclusion, he
declared that for 35 years every West
Point cadet had been hazed and in
turn had been a hazer. Despite that
the institution had developed a splen

was not justified IN treating the body

81. PAU Globe :

81. Iaul Globe:
The reply OF the secretary of war
To the resolution or inquiry regarding
the deportation Of Lditor Rice, of the
Manila Daily Bulletin, makes nothing
known with which the public has not
already been acquainted. The war
authorities claim that the charges
OF Rice regarding the maladministr,,-
ton of the affairs of the port of Man
lila were false, and were persisted in
after their falsity had been made
plain to the military authorities. That
is the gist of the offense charged
against Rice. These are the facts on
which the authorities at Manila bas-
ed their characterization of Rice as
an incendiary, and justified his de-
pOrtatiOn to this country with that
infamous brand attached to him.
1t is true that zen. Macarthur de-
clares that the fullest examination
was had of Rice's charge. What may
may have been a full examination in
the eyes of the soldiers now admins
tering affairs in Manila might very
we'll be in the nature of an entirely
partial examination in the view of
Mr.. Rice. No one doubts but that
General Macarthur believes that the
captain of the port of Manila did not
commit the wrongs attributed to him
or his subordinates by Rice, or that
that official would be retained in his
position were he, in the view of the
military authorities, guilty Of the Of
lenses, whatever they were, which
were laid at his door. But even con-
ceding all this the fact still remains
that the punishment inflicted was
anything but commensurate to the Of
tense charged against Rice.

Amid all the pandemonium there

elderly lady from Rhode Island who
remained in her seat during the whole

One can hardly help but pause and
reflect upon the horror and disgust
which would have filled the breasts
of the women of the revolutionary
times at the mere thought that their
modern namesakes should have become
SO undmindful of the attributes that
make womanhood respected, honoreil
and revered as to make such a vul-
gar exhibition possible. The Belva

Next September.
Montanas new state house, now in
course of construction, will not be
complete for the occupancy of all
departments of the state government
until next September. This an
nouncement is made by the cOntrac-
tors and conceded in by the archi-
tects. However, many of the state Of
ficers are anxious to be able to move
in by the Fourth of July, as that
marks the second year since the lay
ing of the corner stone. Contractor
Sess, who has charge of the contrac-
ton work being done by the Montana
Building company, of which Fl. l..
Frank IS president, expects to have
the state offices sufficiently complct-
ed for occupancy. IL is quite likely
that the state officers will occupy the
new building in July, but the struc-
ture will not be complete in it's en-
tirety until early in September.

HIGH LIFE SCANDAL.
King Edward Said To Be Trying To
Hush Up the AIberton Divorce

Speaking of Major Atherton's suit
t." dix Orce against his wife Lon
don spatch says:
The proceedings have long been an
ticipated. Within the past thirty-s:x
hours a lawyer, VINO is looked upon
as the leader of the divorce court
bar, has been retained in behalf OF
the petitioner.
The case will be in court for some
time and it is possible the friends Of
the Just married duke may now sue
coed in compromising the matter and
preventing the trial.
But as Major Atherton is reported
to have already refused a check for
100000, as compensation for the in
jury he is said to have sustained, the
task ahead of those who are trying
to arrange a settlement, among whom
is said to be King Edward himself,
would seem to be insuperable.
Major Atherton ought to have sue

THE DEPORTATION OF EDITOR RICE

1t is stated in General MacAr-
thurs reply that the papers in the
case were forwarded Feb. /. These
papers will no doubt be laid before
congress in the regular order, and
the public will then receive further
enlightenment on the subject from
the standpoint Of General Macarthur
and his subordinate officers.
1t will be necessary for those who
have resorted to this drastic course
of punishment of nice to be able to
satisfy the country that, as General
Macarthur expresses it, Rice's ac-
lions were "a menace to the military
situation" 1t seems at this dis
lance remarkable circumstance
that criticism of the administration
of a civll officer, such as Rice is de-
clared to have INDUCED in, should BE-
a menace to military situation,
which, we are asked daily to believe,
has nothing whatever menacing in it's
nature.
Nothing short of the fullest ex-
animation of of the entire transaction
will suffice to satisfy the American
people that an American editor en-
gagged in the lawful pursuit of his pro-
fessiOn, ought to be driven from his
home and business and branded as a
firebrand, as punishment for criti-
cisms which on their face appear to
have nothing whatever to do with
the military situation Rice should
be heard in his own defense. He
should be returned to his business
and his home and compensated for
the wrong done him unless it can
be shown that the measure resorted
to was fully justified by military nee
essity.
