Senator Carter, Of Montana, in q |

to state that the United States must
never surrender one toet Of its terri
tory A Democratic Senator inter
xupsed him and said: but We have
already surrendered many feet Of ter

all the time that somewhere in the

"Modus Vivendi." To the great Hay
belongs the glory Of exhuming it,
and laying it before our ravished WIS.,

No more viii polite ears be offended
by blunt and bitter words. Jones and
his wife will no more quarrel like cats
and dogs. 1t will only be one phase
Of the ''modus vivendi." John Ball

John Phoenix had fight with IN

These examples will serve to illus

to the everlasting shame Of American
manhood, this brilliant diplomat ant

this Richelieu, this Talleyrand, is no

A NUISANCE.

Many complaints are made that
disreputable whites and blacks,
who frequent the saloons on East
Main street on Sundays, and who
congregate near the Methodist
church, disturb the religious ser
vices Of that congregation. The
pastor Of the congregation on Sun
day of last week stopped during
his service and requested the Trus-
tees to see that the gang was scat
tered. A prominent citizen says
he has seen many of these charac-
ters go up the alley and turn in
where a rear entrance admits them
TO these dens, which are evidently
operated in defiance Of law, and in
utter disregard Of the rights OF de
cent people. He said there is talk
OF issuing a petition to the saloon
keepers to allow the worshipers at
that church at least two hours on
Sunday and one hour on Wednes-
day evening in which to engage in
their devotions without Interrupt
ton.
If such conduct can not be stop
ped by request, we suggest that
legal steps be taken to cancel the
licenses of the saloons and the dis
turbers of the peace be prosecuted.
The traffic is a ieproach and dis
grace to any community.
Pastor Robertson is evidently
to moderate drinking.'

THE HOME.

We encourage home industry by
giving to it our patronage. We
encourage the huckster by pur-
chasing his gatherings. We en-
courage the preacher by lending
our support We encourage our
young men and women by favor
ing them above outsiders. All
equal, home should be first. The
home merchant, the home doctor,
the home paper, the home teacher,
lawyer, manufactures should be
first. Such custom stimulates ap-
probation and development.

For CounciImen.
MAY CLOSE AT 7 O'CLOCK.

An agreement may be made by
which all the business houses OF
the city will close at 7 o'clock.
The question is considered in this
way: Statesmen deserve a rest.
Labor after o'clock is not remu-
nerative because of additional eX-
pense, and then the men are EN-
ployed only for a days labor OF
ten hours each, and it is not just
to work them every night without
paying them. Again. a rested
man is worth more to his employer
than the one who fails to get the
needed sleep. We favor closing
at 7 o'clock, especially during the
hot period.
