WANTED---A POLICY FOR THE
INTER LAKE.

AS usual, the Inter Lake comes in
with its little me too" policy in re.
gard to gambling in Kalispell. With
out sufficient courage to take any
stand upon the question itself, the
Inter Lake tries to make the public
believe that it has been opposed to
gambling all along, although the
games were openly conducted in Kal.
ispell for months without a word of
protest from that paper.
The Inter Lake says the Bee was
in favor of gambling under its former
management, and tries to welcome
this paper into the ranks Of the up
holders of the law.
The present management Of the
Bee is not responsible for the for
mer policy of this paper, but almost
any policy is preferable to the milk
and water diet given to it's readers
by the Inter Lake.
Gambling was stopped in Kalispell
because of the stand taken by the
Bee, and the Inter Lake, because of
it's petty jealousy, charges the Bee
with "crawfishing" on the question.
AS no facts are pointed out on which
the charge is based, it is quite in
line with the usual vaporous and un
certain editorials of the Inter Lake

the SCHLEY VERDICT.

Notwithstanding the numerous dec
larations of the secrecy that was to
surround the findings of the Schley
court of inquiry the findings of the
court seem to be gradually leaking
out. 4ne public was recently inform
ed that the members of the court
would not even trust the report to
stenographer, but would themselves
write it out in longhand, and person
ally deliver it to the secretary
OF the navy. 1t was further an
nounced that the admirals would
risk the possibilities of actions
for divorce by refusing to dis
cuss the findings with their wives.
But in spite of all their precautions
the Washington newspaper cores
pondents seem to be quite we'll in
formed upon the nature Of the forth
coming report It is said that Ad-
miral Schley is to be vindicated on
all Of the principal points in contro-
versy.
AS to the charge of cowardice,
which was the chief point at issue,
his conduct is said to have been that
of brave and gallant officer worthy
of the noblest traditions of the Amer
lean navy.
Concerning the famous loop made
by the flagship Brooklyn, it is said
to have been a movement the neces-
sity of which had to be determined
by the officer in command of the ship
at the moment. thus putting the re-
sponsibility upon the captain Of the
Brooklyn.
To meet the criticisms of Schley S
conduct during the battle it is said
that he did his full duty as man
and an officer. The method in which
the blockade was conducted is said
w NC dppAONcu, dS 0iSO llfc SLOW wy
age from Cienfuegos to Santiago
The board finds, it is said, that Ad
miral Schley made mistake in going
to Key West for coal instead of coal
ing at sea. The admiral is also to
be criticised in the report for not
being more prompt in ascertainine
that the Spaniards were not in the
harbor of Cienfuegos. The points
however. on which Admiral Schley is
to be criticized by the board are OF
such minor Importance that the yer
diet will be accepted by the genera
public as complete vindication O.

Galusha A. Grow, who was sworn
in as a member of the present house
OF representatives, has the distinction
Of having been sworn in as Il member
of congress in 1851, just half cen
fury ago. Mr. Grow has not been a
member of the house continuously,
but has been in public Office most Of
the time. Vast changes have takea
place in the great American republ
since his first entry into public life
and in many important chapters Mr..
Grow has played a prominent part.
He was speaker of the house during
the stormy period from 1861 to 1863
the 37th congressman was one of
the 176 members who responded to
the call of President Lincoln for the
extra session of July. 1861.
Many notable men have come to
the front and passed away since Mr.
Grow first entered public life, among
them being Abraham Lincoln, Stephen
A. Douglas, James G. Blaine, Roscoe
Conkling and host of others.
Although almost 80 years of age
Mr.. Grow still retains his physical
and mental vigOr to remarkable
degree and his work in the present
congress will no doubt surpass that
of many of the younger members.

American Position on the Question Of
Indemnity.

Washington. March 23.-Although
the situation at Tien Tsin was never
regarded as really dangerous the Of
ficials felt that prolOngation of the
hostile attitude of the British and
Russian forces might lead to trouble
in the end so that the news OF the
arrangement by which both Of the
powers are enabled 10 recede from
their positions without loss Of honor
was well received here With this
exciting issue Withdrawn the Chinese
trouble has assumed less menacing
aspect and il is reported that the
ministers have been able. leaving in
abeyance the troublesome subject Of
indemnities. to make some headway
toward the disposition of the points
remaining to be adjusted under the
articles subscribed to by China and
the powers as the basis for the joint
meeting at Peking.
Further inquiry into the indemnity
question makes II appear that the
sum of 5000 100000. which our gov
ernment considers the maximum that
should be levied upon the Chinese as
tax. represents absolutely the limit
of Chinese ability. according 10 the
calculations OF the officials best in
formed as to the resources OF China
The figure named does not reHesent
the aggregate of the indemnities
claimed. o. the contrary. il is under
cfn haf oh 10
The United States fixed upon the sum
of $4,000. 900 as
Suitable Indemnity to BE Claimed.
Notwithstanding that officials of the
various departments are satisfied that
this sum will only provide for a pay
ment of percentage of the items.
because it is felt that is as much as
we should claim proportiOnately of the
total of s200 100000. Ii is not the in
tention to divide this 100000. 900 into
as many equal parts as there are pow
ers. but while dividing ii into eight or
ten parts. to see to it that these parts
are so proportioned as to compensate
the powers in accordance with the out
lay they have been put to. This gov
ernment would be willing to abate the
$o5 100000 claim il the other powers
would reduce their claims in the same
proportion. even to the extent OF re-
ducing the total estimate to 100000
600 IL by so doing the Chinese govern
ment could be relieved by having the
tax adjusted to their abilities. Bat
although in grave doubt whether
China can pay more than 100000 ooo,
our government feels itself bound 70
secure compensation for its citizens
and itself to the same extent as Is
secured by other powers and is es-
pecially resolved to do this becausa
of the conviction that the total aban-
donment of our claims or even n

powers would rather injure than keip
