plant at the expiration of the fran
chise, % years hence.
At the council meeting this evening
the crossings where the railroads will
be expected to place nagmen will be de-
cided upon.
Fred Nicol will ask the council to- pay
him for damages OccasiOned, as he
claims, by a mistake in fumigating his
cabin under the impression that there
had been diseas, in it.
Under ordinances that will be intro.
duced people who sell or deliver meats
goods, wares and merchandise in a
wagon or cart, and clairvoyants, me-
diums and fortune tellers will have to
pay licenses.
Other ordinances will provide for the
location of poles to be placed in streets
or alleys and for the prevention of
mutilation of placards that are put up
by the health department.

IN THE POLICE COURT.
Divers Cases Were Disposed of This
Morning by Judge Bowie.

Morning by Judge Boyle.
Judge Boyle decided this morning that
John Miemi was not guilty of disturbing
the peace when he tried to recover his
cat from a neighbours house, and dis
missed him.
Fart Of the testimony against John
tended to show that he battered down
door. His honor went down and
looked at the gateway to the neighbours
nome and concluded that no great dam
age had been done it.
Minnie Morgan failed to present her.
self before the court when her name was
called. and she was assessed $40 the
amount of a cash bond she had put up
to insure her appearance.
d. Doyle and William Smith FRANKLY
told the court that they had been doing
a little celebrating, and each was
fined IS.
Steve O'Donnell was adjudged guilty
of assault and was taxed $25 for the
offense.
Thomas Mahoney was charged with
two offenses. both of which grow out
of alleged actions in the office of Mr..
Hall, in East Park street. The COM
plant alleges that Mahoney broke some
glass and otherwise fractured the or
dinances of Butte. He pleaded not
guilty and his case will be heard later
To begin with ]. H. Fendell, who was
charged with disturbing the peace, had
his bond forfeited. Later he appeared
before the judge and was granted per-
mission to defend himself next Friday.

TRADE IN TINE PHILIPPINES.

The democratic organs in this country
which are carping at the policy of the
administration in the Philippines and
enjoying every embarrassment that is
involved in the process Of pacification
should experience a sense OF shame as
they observe that even Germany volun-
tarily confesses what the mugwump
faultfinders in our own country inss
on denying regardless of the facts of
with the German government has just
issued "a circular on the subject OF Ger
man trade expansion, in which the FOL
lowing statements are made:
Although the pacification of the Phil,
ippine archipelago has not yet been fully
established, the accounts of its economic
development are so favorable that it car
not be too strongly urged upon German
exporters to give particular attention to
this group of islands. The testimony
cannot be withheld that the American
administration of affairs in the Philip
pines has, as far as economic bettelr11ept
OF the country is concerned already
achieved extraordinary success. In 1885,!
which was the last year of peaceful con-
ditions under Spanish rule. the Philip
pines imports reached $2S. SOC. 900. Under
American rule the imports increased in
1889 to $4O.90t.000. and in 1900 to $55 500. =
600 Mexican.
Praise from Sir Hubert is commenda-
tion indeed. If Germany, a rival nation.
is forced to confess the triumphs of
American policy, surely the democratic
anti expansionist mugwumps of the
United States should keep quiet, even
though they be not honest enough 20
confess their error.

PRINTED BY the BLIND,

The first number of publication
called the Rocky Mountain Leader has
been issued from the state school for
the deaf and dumb at Boulder. The pub
lication is designed to teach printing to
the pupils of the school, to aid in their
literary work and act as medium
through which the public can be informed
concerning the work done and the meth
DDS employed at the institution. 1t will
be issued semi-monthly. The paper has a
neat typographical appearance. is bright
ly written and contains much that is of
interest to the casual reader, as we'll as
to those interested in the work of teach
ing pupils who lack the sense of sight.
On it's merits the paper deserves success
and by reason of the circumstances I'M
der which it is published and its laud-
able mission in the field Of school Jour-
nails there is reason to believe that it will
receive excellent patronage.

ne WILL LOOK OUT FOR WOOL.

Concerning the little talk between
Senator Paris Gibson and a Washington
newspaper reporter, Montana residents
have made extended comment. The
question of wool tariff came up in the
course of the interview and Montana's
junior senator sandwiched in between
statements favorable to free trade, a
declaration to the effect that a tariff on
wool suited residents of his home state
first-rate. Up and down the state since
the interview has been made public men
have asked what Senator Gibson's real
attitude toward wool was. Does he
favor the tariff which is so acceptable
to his neighbors at home, or is he at
Washington to represent only his own
views? This was the question brought
prominently up by the senator's WASH
ington talk.
Ihere is but one way by which Sem
ator Gibson can indicate concern for tie
Woolgrowers of Montana, and that is to
announce his abandonment of the demo-
cratic fallacies of free trade and his con-
version to the republican theory of pro-
tectloh. No man who believes in free
wool can intelEgently pretend to cham
pion the interests of the woolgrowars
If he believes in a protective tariff on
wool and will agree always to uphold
such tariff, he may consistently claim
to be friend of. the sheep interests of
Montana, but not otherwise. He occu-
pies the anomalous position of a free
trade senator, pledged to protect an in
dustry which free trade would kill. He
is democratic senator of a state whose
every Industrial interest demands repub-
lican craftsmanship for it's advancement.
He must. therefore, either cease to be a
free trader or no longer claim to be a
friend of the Montana woolgrower.

GOVERNOR TO0lt'S POSITION.

With entire respect to the governor and
attorney general of Montana. the Inter
Mountain would again call their atten-
ton to the fact of the great railroad
merger proposition of James J. Hill. anu
inquire what they are going to do about
it. Governor Toole said in his answer to
the request of Governor Van SAINT. that
there is law enough in this state to pro-
tect it's people from all harmful COM
bines and trusts, and that If the
proposed merger contemplates the Vio-
lation of the statutes or involves dis
advantage to the state, its promoters Will
be held to a strict accountability. That
was the sense if not the language OF the
governors reply. His excellency init
mated that he would look into the char
acter of the deal to determine whether
it was likely to be harmful to Montana
or not. That was week ago. He has
not yet found out, for which reason.
perhaps, the attorney general has not
been heard from on tine subject.
The Inter Mountain begs to submit
that if the state officials above named
intend to prevent the merger, or oppose
it, every consideration of fairness de-
mands that proceedings be begun. at
to the intention of the officials before
he incurs the expense of consolidat ton or
gives his shareholders and the public as
surance of a successful deal. The COVER
nor owes to to himself as we'll as the
railroad people, and to them no less than
to the thousands of citizens who elected
him to office to come to a definite conclu-
sion as soon as possible, so that all par
ties may know what to expect. There
are two sides to the question. On behalf
of the merger, it is held that it will stop
rate cutting, eliminate rebates to large
shippers and give stability to transporta-
ton and passenger charges. On the
other hand, there is danger of absolute
power which may reduce the public ac-
commodation, raise the rates and side
track entire communities. When his ex-
cellency decides whether the merger will
be detriment or blessing, he may
declare his purpose. There are promi-
nent politicians within the fusion ranks,
however, who contend that Governor
Toole has no alternative and that under
the pledges of the parties which elected
him to office, his duty on the merger
issue is imperative.
These are matters, however, which
Governor Toole will decide for himself.
The only suggestion Of the Inter Noun
tain is that he declare his intentions as
soon as possible, first in order that the
railroads may not be deceived as to their
treatment in this state, and secondly, in
order that the governors constituency
may know what to expect from their
chosen servants.

1t is estimated that by the year 1911
New York will equal London in popula-
ton. The population Of the English
metropolis is now 4,sOs, S42. The increase
in the past 10 years has been 37Q.122.
New York's population has increased
944,O12 within the same period, bringing
the total UP to s,43o,2o2. The percentage
of annual growth in New York is on
the increase while that of London is
waning. Should no disappointing re-
verses take place within the next decade,
America will boast the largest seaport
of any country in the world, built up by
trade and immigration from every sec
ton of the globe.

gloomy forebodings concerning the con-

the belief of the Tribune that the devel-

citizens to desist from jubilations over
the prospect of an isthmian waterway

the prospects of the Falls City will suffer

should have spoken sooner. The matter

the BAD LANDS DISTRICT.

AS long ago as last spring one of the
most influential of Butte's secret So
cieties began an agitation for the re-
moval of the fallen women of Butte
from their present quarters to a more
remote locality. The business men of
Butte lent prompt encouragement to the
project, but the city council did not take
favorable action, so the matter was tenn
porarily held in allegiance. Within the
past few weeks. prominent ladies of
Butte connected with the reform asso-
Citations have revived the discussion on
the public behalf. Yesterday a commit
tee Of them called upon the Inter Noun
tain to solicit its aid in bringing the SUBJ
ject before the people and their repre-
sentatives in the city government. The
ladies were promptly informed that the
Inter Mountain had never entertained
but one view on the ACCESSIBILITY of re-
moval, and that it would again aid in
calling attention Of the civil authorities
to the urgency Of the issue. There is no
need of an argument in submitting the
proposition of removal to the aldermen.

GOSSIP ABOUT COPPER.

A Boston dispatch to the Salt Lake
Tribune of the I'd instant states that
the Amalgamated people have just sold
100, 900, 900 pounds of copper to German
manufacturers at the market price. The
report is doubtless premature, because
if it were true every idle man in Butte
would be put to work in such mines as
the courts permit to be operated, and
every steam hoist in Butte would be in
active operation.
There has been no confirmation of a
reduction in the price of copper OF
cents per pound. and'it is hoped on be-
half of the prospectors, leasers and
smelter operators of Butte that prices
will remain where they are. They will
do so unless the holders of the surplus
are compelled to make a reduction on
account of the continued refusal Of other
concerns to bear their proportion of the
loss involved in curtailment.
What seems to be we'll grounded in
formal ton from Boston today is to the
effect that the decline in Amalgamated
was not caused by any of the hostile in
fluances to which it was attributed, but
by the sale Of Mrs. Days holdings on
account of that lady's desire to rid her.

much of her time and threatened the i'm

her shares were sold without reference
