Timber Cases.
results.

The timber prosecutions lately begun
against certain mining men and their
heirs in this state may possibly be based
on a very proper determination to en-
force the law and punish certain delin-
quent land office officials, if any. Thefe
is a strong belief however, that there is
some personal issue involved, and that
behind the prosecution are vindictive in
fluences which would not much care il

Mr.. Clark has been equally careful and

receivers receipts, which are equivalent
to patent had been issued.
The personal features of the prosecu-
tions do not Immediately concern the
public. The people hope only that Off
cial zeal may not go to the extreme O.:

timber. This district has too many
mines shut down now which ought to

PIERCE is BACK IN BUTTE
Well Known Wheelman Who Followed
the Flag Away Gladly Greeted
by Old Friends.

Charles o. Pierce, formerly of Butte,
who left here in the fall of 1899 to Join
the Thirty fourth reI ment of Unite.,
States volunteers, returned to the CITY
yesterday. after an absence of nearly
two years. He went to the Philippines
with his regiment, sailing from San
Francisco in September, 1so9 and saw
service in Northern Luzon. Mr.. Pierce
was somewhat unfortunate in being at
tackled by fever and other tropical all
ments, and laid for several months in
the hospital OF the islands, finally being
invaded home last fall. He spent the
winter recuperating. at Goodhue, Cool
hue county, Mimi. and has now almost
recovered his former vigorous health.
Mr.. Pierce was formerly in business
here in Butte and ran a wheel store for
several years. He was identified with
bicycle racing and was well known in
that line. He had a brother who was
at various times with the Hennessy
company and the Brownfield-Canty COM
pany, but who is now in Spokane.

him to send home the log chain he bor-
rowed, swap yarns about the weather,
and do so many things that it would tire
a man to tell all of them. The idea of
cooperative telephones is good one,
and may help solve the question of how
to keep the boys on the farm. Make the
place attractive for them, and they will
stay.

We have over one hundred miles Of line,

where railroad communication Is yet

great business. There are as yet no ar
rangements for farm telephones. but
that may come later. as the ranchers
find what convenience it would be-"

Independent Community.

"What promises to be one f the best
cooperative institutions in the state is
Just being dnaugurated in the Gallatin
valley" said Frank A. Hall, president of
the Yellowstone Park Telephone COM
pany, operating lines in Park, Gallatin
and Sweet Grass counties. ut is the
farmers telephone line from Bozeman
up to Sixteen Mile, thirty miles up the
valley. The farmers there are pretty
well-to do, but are clear off the railroad
and have nothing better than stage
line to connect them with the outside
world. They figure that the next best
thing to living in the city was to bring
the city to them, which they are doing
by means of a telephone line, owned and
managed by themselves.
1.-THE company includes some of the in
huential. heavyweight ranchers of the
county, and starts out with sufficient
capital to do the business as it should be
done. Perhaps they will make some mis-
takes in equipment and operation, but
they will learn and the idea will spread

your door every day, sell your grain and
hogs by telephone. and connect your
phone with the opera house where you
can hear all the classic airs of the day.
while you loaf about the house in your
shirt sleeves and hear the grain and hay

Bishop Duncan Coming.

Bishop w. w. Duncan. OF the Metho-
dist Episcopal church, South, is to be in
Montana TO hold the annual conference
of that denomination at Deer Lodge,
August %, and will preach in St. Paul's
church in Butte on the 18th. He was
here last year, speaking in one of the
halls of the city, that being before the
new church was finished. He made a
good impression on those who heard him,
by his scholarly address, and the house
will doubtless be crowded to hear him
this time. The Montana conference over
which he will preside embraces the whole
state.

Abusing the President.

The Anaconda Standard this morning
undertakes to convince its readers that
the war with Spain was wholly unneces-
the president Of the United States at a
critical moment Of the negotiations.
That is serious charge to bring
against the executive of the nation. I!
! is serious charge to bring against the
people of the United States. If the
charge be true, then the men of this re-
public who demanded the liberation Of
Cuba even at the expense Of war are
Wanton destroyers of human life and
wholly destitute of the sense of justice
and the spirit of patriotism. Nothing is
so wicked as a war without cause.
Nothing is SO expensive and ruinous.
Nothing is so awful in the suffering and
misery it entails.
The people of the United States did
not go into that war in a spirit of con-
quest or for empty show or for political
reasons. The president of the United
States did everything in his power to
prevent hostilities so long as there was
hope of peaceful adjustment Only
when justice and honor alike demanded
war did he consent to it. Public senti-
ment was wrought up to the highest
pitch and the effect on congress is we'll
remembered. When that congress- with
out dissenting voice, voted $4,000, 900
TOR the use Of the president as an
emergency fund, it's members thereby
demonstrated their confidence in tn.
judgment and wisdom of William Nc
Ainley. No man in congress or out OF
1t then accused him of cowardice or
bloodthirstiness. We do not remember
the attitude of the Anaconda Standard
at that time, but most likely it did not
'denounce the chief executive as coward
and trimmer simply because he was
determined to liberate Cuba and punish
Spanish lnsolence That it should do so
now, and on the strength of an article
In the New York Evening Post, seems
grossly unfair. The Post no doubt is still
OF the opinion that the war of the re-
belion was failure and the war of
the revolution an outrageous case of
ingratitude towards good King George
It Is almost beyond belief, however,
that any newspaper printed in Mon
tana, which sent thousands of it's gall
liant sons to the front with the blessings
and approval Of all the people, should
now make the war the basis for a mean
and malignant attack on the president
of the United States, and assert that
the heroes of the war We're engaged in
remorseless conquest. The blood
shed on Cuban and Philippine battle
fields, the work of Hobson and his brave
boys on the Merrimac, the victory Of
Sampson and Schley- at Santiago and
the imperishable deed Of Dewey at
Manila rise up in solemn protest against
such partisan Misrepresentation. Demo-

suits. That war has been the means OF
uniting the men of the north and south
and wiping out almost the last bitter
