THE hONORS TO ROBERTS

We believe that the world
will agree that Lord Roberts
fairly earned the decoration
and elevation in the peerage
which he yesterday received.
President Kruger simself said
of Lord Roberts that he was
the only one of the English
commanders who had held to
his word to him. and while
his prejudice with respect to
the others may have carried
him farther than the strict
line of truth. the compliment
which he implied in his allu-
sion to Roberts stands. 1t
was the latter who took COM
mand of the British troops
and stemmed the tide of de-
feat which was flowing
against her majesty's troops,
and it was he who directed
the subsequent movements
toward the conditions which
prevail today. There is not
much reason to doubt that
other honors will be bestowed
upon some of those still at
the front, .ut, however that
may be, those given to Gen.
Roberts were worthily be-
stowed.-Cincinnati Enquirer.

DIVISION OF DEER LODGE.

The bill introduced hy Hon. John Ricl-
county will. almost without doubt. be-
come a law Opposition to 1t seems to
have died out and every consideration
of fairness and justice demands it's
enactment. Our own notion about the
name of the new county is that 1t
should retain the old and honored name
of Deer Lodge. The city of Deer Lodge
itself will be the county seat and it will
be more il accord with the fitness of
things that the fine old city of Deer
Lodge should remain in the good old
county of Deer Lodge. In this way there
will be no confusion of names and ad-
dresses. and all the old traditions of that
section of the state will remain unds-
turbed by the changes which time. and
the DEVELOPMENT of the country have
hl ought about. BY all means let it re-
main Deer Lodge. Deer Lodge county"
1t is the advancement made in the
south end of the county. and it's rapid
growth in population and influence. that
has made the division Of the old county
OF Deer Lodge necessary. 1t is therefore
proper that that portion embracing Ana
ccrda should take the new name. what
ever it is to be- And here it may be

folded to honor the name and memory of

BROTHER OF LORD ROBERTS.
He Dies Friendless and Alone in Sal
Francisco.

San Francisco. Jan. 1.-THE contents
Of letter found among the effects of
the late Abraham Roberts. who died on
January in room on Howard street,
has led the coroner to believe that the
deceased man may have been a brother
to Earl Roberts, the distinguished British
general. The letter in question was writ
ten on November 2. 1894. by Harry Rob-
erts, a brother of the deceased. who is
ar accountant employed by the First
National bank. of Princeton, Ill. In this
letter the passage occurs:
Our brother. General Roberts. is now.

CHINESE SITUATION IN A
NUTSHELL

Whether the settlement be-
gun at Pekin will be even
temporarily effective will be
seen when, with the bulk of
the foreign troops withdrawn
and the imperial family re-
established in the capital,
foreign missions undertake
to resume their work and
foreign traders flock back to
the disturbed districts. 1t
may then be found that the
authority of the dynasty is
not powerful enough to pre-
serve order and that the
hatred of the foreigner is
stronger than the fear of his
vengeance. Should that re-
suit appear. the era of even
Qualities for China would be
at hand. That such an out
come is even a possibility of
the near future must be
credited in equal part to the
Vacillating policy and imbe-
cile ferOcity of the Manchu
leaders, to the wanton bru-
tally of punitive expedi-
TONS that exceed tae hor-
rOrS of the Port Arthur
massacre" without having it's
provocation, and to the over
reaching course Of the minis
ters. The western world and
China itself are each in the
position of hoping for better
results than their acts give
them the right to expect

Whatever complications may arise
among discordant elemGDts which make
up the majority in the legislature, it is to
be sincerely hoped that the republican
minority will not be drawn into a par
ticipation in their quarrels or in any ad-
justment of them. By keeping alOof the
republicans will preserve a clean. con-
sistent record upon which to go before
the people at the next election. No re-
publican need fear but that the fusion
majority will furnish ample campaign
material and plenty of,rOpe with which
to hang themselves politically. Let the
fusion aggregation fight it out among
themselves and let. republicans watch

The action of the fusionists at Helena
last night certainly must have been a
surprise to Mr.. Clark and his friends.
They probably expected a few of the
fusonist members to remain out but no
one was looking for such a contingency
as more than half of them to remain
away. There are SO members of the
fusion aggregation in the two houses not
counting the Independent democrats. OF
these it is reported less than 20 attended
the caucus. This event creates new in
terest in the senatorial situation and the
proceedings during the next few days
will be watched with increased attention.

THE BOY WHO LIVES NEXT DOOR

The boy who lives next door
Has freckles on his face;
His ears are red and hang
Away out into space,
And when l hear a dog ki-yi
And see it flee in terror,
Can quickly cues the cause
IT'S merely that one more
Poor little victim knows
A boy resides next door,
He runs across the lawn
I've nursed with jealous care,
And, in the summer time.
Knocks down the flowers there!
1t seems to give him pure delight
To yell around with all his might,
And every week or SO
A pebble finds it's way
Against a light of glass
For which l have to pay.
He has no teeth in front.
His hands are cracked and brown,
Twice he has nearly burned
Our summer kitchen down.
He calls to people: Hey! Watch OUT"
And when they jump he whoops about
1 used to think If God
Would take him from below
Up TO the SKY u Try
To bravely bear the blow!
The little child whose love
Is all to me, one day
Was stricken suddenly
When 1 was far away
The boy who lives next door forgot
To yell around, but ran and brought
The doctor to the bed,
And when 1 came, at last
Shrank from me with a look
OF pity as I passed!
The boy who lives next door
Brought in his tops and gun,
And pocketfuls of trash
To please our little one;
He played beside my darling's bed.
Turned cartwheels and stood on his head
And God was good to me
Let's wait awhile before
We utterly condemn
THE boy who lives next door,
S. E. KISER.
