The hearings before the railroad COM
mittee on the petition of the Connect
out Western Railroad Company to ex-
tend its line from Tariffville to Spring

day afternoon by the delivery of the
arguments of the counsel in the case
The chamber of the House of Represen-
tatives was packed with spectators and
all could not be seated. Many remained
standing during the four and one-half
hours required to deliver the arguments
The NEWS cannot attempt to report the
pleas inasmuch as q condensed report
requires ten columns of fine type in one
of the Hartford daily papers. We can
not tell when the railroad committee
will make their report, Except as a
matter of form it does not seem neces-

knows what the consequences will be if

Tomorrow, May 8, will be Arbor and
Bind Day in Connect ut. The day is
usually observed by the public schools
with appropriate exercises. Nobody
should object to this custom which
teaches the young people the theory OF
the day. But practice is better than
theory. This year the adults should
illustrate the differ, noe between theory
and practice, and do something to
beautify the towns and villages of Con,
necticut. Setting out shade trees by
the wsyside, trimming those set out
years ago, making sidewalks, cleaning
mp lawns-the Town Hall lawn includ.
ed-or doing anything in the way Of
public improvements will be doing
something practical and will be worth
more than all the theories than can be
taught in school in whole year.

WORK OF A TRUST.

The smelter al East Helena is provid-
ing a market for much of the custom
ore produced in this state by the pros
pectors and small mine owners; it is
taking care of much Of the silver lead
product of the Occur d'Alenes; it is con-
suming hundreds Of tons OF iron and
ether fuxes produced in contiguous min
ing districts; it directly employs several
hundred men all the read round, with
decided benefit to the metropolis of
Helena. Yet it is a trust enterprise and
under the ban Of dominant democracy
in the state. The state officials are
pledged to suppress and drive from the
state all such institutions, and the
courts are expected at the behest of
demagogues to shut down and despoil
such enterprises when by any stretch
of imagination the law can reach them.
Fortunately some of the courts decline
to become the instruments of such OPP
preston, and the workingmen would
rise up as one man in protest against
such infamy, whether pledged in a
party platform or not. The only men
who want to stile industrial enterprise
in Montana and throw thousands OF
good men into idleness are those who
expect to ride into Office or remain in
office by demagogue attacks on property
rights, on thrift, on capital and on the
real interests of labor

A DISTINGUISHED VISITOR.

1t may interest Mr.. J. Pierpont Nor
gan and his fellow tourists to know that
the metropolis he is visiting today has
a population of 10000 prosperous people;
that the value Of the districts metal
product last year was $50 900; that
dts labor payroll approxinates s1,oo0,-
900 a month; that it has an army of
sturdy American miners working in the
depths, to the number of 5000 men;
that they extract and hoist to the sur
face every "a hours 10000 tons of ore.
which supplies six great reduction
plants, while seventh, under construc-
ton at Anaconda at a cost of 100000
will swell the grand total capacity to
1900 tons per day; that as a freight
center Butte has no equal in all the
world according to its population, and
that the NaHderbilts, Jim Hill, Harri-
man and the Goulds have all been en-
abled to wear store clothes by reason OF
the Butte traffic; that the producing
mines are yet in the cary stages of de-
velopment and that despite their vast
riches they are likely to be duplicated
by recent discoveries within two miles
east Of the city; that, in short, Butte is
the busiest and best, richest and rarest.
largest and liveliest mining city on
earth.
1t is a great pity that Mr.. Morgan did
not settle in Butte instead of New York.
If he will tell his moneyed friends what
g. picturesque, prosperous and interest
Ing place Butte is, and point out to them
to what advantage their capital can be
here invested, lie may accomplish for
them what he neglected to accomplish
for himself.
Mr.. Morgan is reputed to be very
rich man, as eastern millionares go, and
always willing to buy a few railroads
or steamship lines, but his object in
visiting the Pacific coast at this time is
purely religious, he being a delegate to
the recent Episcopalian conference at
San Francisco and undismayed at the
reported impossibility of a rich man
passing through the eye Of a needle into
the realms of paradise. Today, how
ever, he is passing through Butte, which
is much pleasanter trip, and the Inter
Mountain bids him welcome despite the
size of his bank balance.

the PRESIDENTS COMING MESSAGE.

The first draft of President Rocsevelts
message is said to be already in COM
pleted form. During the few weeks
which will intervene between now and
the opening day of the next session of
congress the president will be occupied
largely in perfecting the portions of the
message which now lack the accuracy
and attention to detail which make
valuable the official documents of the
executive. Considerable anticipatory in
terest centers around the detailed ac-
count which will be given of what was
accomplished in a diplomatic way in
China before settlement between the
powers and the Chinese empire was
finally agreed upon. Ship subsidies, the
isthmian canal, reciprocal commercial
relations-these three will be the chief
topics of the presidents message if init
nations from an apparently authorita-
tive source are to be relied upon. All
these are embraced within the scope of
the plan for building up the American
merchant marine, and Of this the presi-
dent is heartily i'm favor.

THE PUNISHMENT OF GRATING.

A Great Falls judge has set a first
rate example to the district bench of
Montana by imposing a five-year SEN
tence for the common vice of grating"
This technical description fits an offense
which consists of robbng drunken and
helpless men who fall into the hands of
denzens of Great Falls forbidden sec
ton. a colored man and woman We're
brought before the circuit court Satur-
day, and upon being found guilty, We're
given the limit. The heavy sentence in,-
posed is meant to be stern warning to
evil-loers who live by preying upon I'M
sophisticated visitors to the city's slums.
A few examples of swift and merited
punishment such as the judge at Great
Falls handed out, will put an end to the
bold operations of the grating frater-
nifty. Other courts of the state may with
profit follow the example of the Great
Falls judge.

kfCGn'S OATS SCANDAL.

Complaint comes from Fort Keogh,
near Miles City, to the effect that the
oats provided by the government for the
cavalry horses are being stolen by en-
listed men and sold to settlers near the
military reserve. If no other evidence
was at hand to prove that the palmy
days of the frontier were only a memory
tana's military post would settle the
question. Early residents of the North
west still recall important transactions
for which government supplies furnished
the subject matter, and it was an unus-
ual. not to say unheard Of thing, for
scandal to arise touching these matters.
The growing lack Of confidence in the IN
tegrity of Uncle Sans uniformed SER
wants is the product of a generation
which knows nothing of the cordial re-
lations sustained between civilian ana
soldier during pioneer days.
It is stated by some authorities that
a considerable quantity of wild oats
was sowed in and around the frontier
posts in the early days of the territory
but no suspicion arises that larceny was
one of the practices Of that halcyon
period Of Montana's history. The men
who took the oats from Fort keosn
lack many Of the characteristics of the
early settlers. When the West was
young offenses against the governments
commissary were severely frowned upon

FALSE REPORTS OF LYNCnING.

Rumors of lynching that have been
heard up and down the state are beyond
question the thinnest sort of moonshine.
Since the Helena mob stepped over the
boundaries of law gossip has told how
Gallatin valley residents We're on the
point of lynching the alleged poisoner of
leading citizen, and it has been whis-
pered that residents of Butte planned to
have recourse to the rope for the pur-
pose of avenging the killing of McCaine,
wlose death occurred a week ago. 1t is
greatly to be regretted that affairs in
Helena were so ordered that a lynching
was permitted. In order that lynching
party be successful in carrying on its
work it is necessary to devise means of
taking the prisoner from a strong Jail
Well guarded. Not in many counties of
Montana can officers be persuaded to de-
liver up their prisoners to mobs. Ger
tain it is that Silver Bow county's Jail
will hold whatever prisoners are taken
through it's doors. Gossip concerning
lynching carries with it a reflection not
only upon the community from whose

upon the officers Of the law whose duty
it is to protect prisoners given into their
keeping. The grand jury at Helena
rightly judged that a large share Of
blame rested upon the officers who per-
mitted the mob Of lynchers to carry out
their plans when the disgrace to Helena
and to the state might have been pre-
vented by the men sworn to uphold
the law,

the Slx.SHOOTtR HABIT.

In the state of South Carolina it is pro-
posed to amend the law relative to
carrying concealed weapons, so that the
dangers arising from the practice will
be greatly lessened. If the new law is
passed no revolvers less than 90 inches
in length, or which weigh less than three
pounds, will he sold, owned or carried
in the state. In this way it is proposed
so to regulate the carrying of weapons
that a firearm cannot be concealed, and
the trouble and annoyance of going
armed will be so great that pistols will
be carried only when imperative neces-
sity demands their use. If the legls.a-
ture OF South Carolina is successful in
passing the proposed law and providing
for it's enforcement. these Southern
solons will solve problem which has
vexed Northern and Western states
without end.
The practice Of carrying firearms has
in many sections of the country become
an evil which is attended with more
fatal results than any other form of
vice. In the state of Montana the deadly
six-shooter numbers its victims by the
score each year. The man who carries
a gun is far too numerous. The six
shooter habit finds no excuse for exist
ence in the state, and there Is seldom
any real occasion for carrying weapon
of any sort. Not often is it necessary
to carry firearms for the protection Of
valuables carried on the person, nor is
the practice of carrying revolvers con-
fined to those who have things of value
to protect. Frequently the unfortunates
caught in the police drag-net and
charged with vagrancy. are found. when
searched. to be loaded with small
arsenal Of deadly weapons. The evil Is
a constant menace to human life. and

Is It a Bullet holeP

The large French plate glass next to
the corner on the Wyoming street side
of the Thornton hotel was broken about
o'clock few nights ago, and the break
ing is considerable Of a mystery.
The hole looks as if it had been made
by a bullet, but no one heard a shot.
The hole is about two-thirds of an inch
in diameter. Whatever the missil was, it
bounded back into the street and could
not be found.
If a bullet, it must have been we'll
spent before striking the glass. for while
it made a clean hole in sthe glass and
cracked the plate in circle about four
inches from it, the curtain on the inside
was not punctured. showing conclusive
ly that the force behind 1t was only great
enough to make the aperture.

A SECOND ANNIVERSARY.

Just two years ago tomorrow the men,
bers of the First Montana regiment re-
turned to Butte from the Philippine
campaign. The volunteers of the state
had been following the flag for period
of is months. They had given good
account of themselves in a score of
hard tough. battles. When the order
came to return home it found the Mon-
tana troops in the trenches before San
Fernando, carrying on a persistent war
fare against the native forces.
The volunteers who went from Mon
tana earned laurels on the battlefield
which challenged the admiration OF
every soldier who knew what it was to
fight for the credit marks that are given
in the military service. The state save
ready acknowledgment of the services
these men performed for Montana. 1t
was a memorable day when the troops
came home. 1t seemed as if all Montana
united to do honor to the states soldier
sons. In the two years that have passed
since their homecoming the members
of the volunteer regiment have taken UP
the affairs Of civil life, and many of
them have earned distinction as great
as that which was gained in the service
of their country. The respect and
esteem of the states citizens are given
measure than when they came marching
home from the first and only war Mon
tana troops had ever engaged in.

carrying deadly weapons.
There is need for a law in Montana
which shall place an effectual ban upon
the deadly six-shooter. The proposed
South Carolina statute may not recon-
mend itself as a correct solution of the
difficulty, but it indicates that public
sentiment is changing in section. of
the country which has long tolerated the
practice of carrying deadly weapons.

those who would dare mistake a Turk

1t goes without saying that the cap
ture Of an American missionary or 4
native under the care of the American
board will not suffice to arouse the Wig

natives educated in American institu-
tons.
