the COURT SCANDAL.

Regardless Of the outcome Of any
pending litigation between mining COM
panies. the people Of Butte intend in
sisting on a prompt and complete in
vestigation Of the charges made respect
ing the recent conduct of Judge Harvey
and his tardy denial Of the same and
counter charges. The specific matter at
issue between litigants is important only
as suggesting the extent to which the
public is concerned and awakening in.
quiry as to whether all other cases pend.
ing or possible are in equal danger of
outside interference in their determine
ton. No man is so rich or so poor that
honor Of the judiciary. Courts were in
stituted when governments were first Or
ganized among men, to enforce the de-
crees of justice. They were instituted
for the protection of all the people alike.
They were designed to accord to every
anan his civil, political. religious ana
property rights. Their duty is to secure
the poor in their lawful possessions as
well as the rich. They are the very basis
and bulwark of all liberty and civiliza-
ton. They are the guardians Of every
home and every man and woman's char.
acter and hope. They give force and
effect to law and establish what is right
between men. The standing Of nations
is gagged by the wisdom and justice Of
their courts. and the respect in which
they are held by the people. Greece and
Rome reached the zenith of their power
when their lawmakers were the great
est and their tribunals Of justice the
most incorruptible. They began to de-
cline when their laws were loosely ad-
ministered and the courts lost their dig
nifty and character. What made Great
Britain for centuries the foremost civil
lied nation? British law and British
Justice. What makes our own nation
SO great? The fact that it's government
is founded upon principles Of justice pro-
tected by courts having the confidence
and respect of every good citizen. The
courts do for the American people what
armies and navies do for the European
nations-they preserve the peace. pro.
tect property and insure justice. In this
country we need no armed force to in.

Judges, the respect which the people
nave for both are a sufficient guarant!

the MINING CONGRESS OF BUTTE.

Respecting the decision of the National
Mining Congress to hold its next an
rual meeting in Butte and which formed
the subject Of discussion last night in
the Butte Business Mems Association,
We submit the following from the Salt
Lake Mining Review to show what the
delegates will expect and what a reputa-
ton Butte has in the mining world for
wonderful mines and generous hospital
ity:
The next annual session of the Inter-
national Mining Congress will be held in
the great mining camp of Butte, Mon
tana. The selection of Butte as the next
camping ground Of the Congress meets
with the hearty approval of large ma
jcrity of those interested in mining and
OF those who wish to more fully post
themselves in this greatest Of all indus
tries In all of its branches. We are glad
that Butte is to have the next session
and we feel that we can safely say that
the mining fraternity of Utah will do all
in its power to make this meet a most
successful one. That this Congress will
prove a great success, no one can for a
moment doubt, as this Montana camp is
oHe OI the greatest on this continent, and
it is doubtful If its peer can be found

offers splendid opportunities for thu

farther on, misfortune again overlook him.

COPPER AND the TARIFF.

The Anaconda Standard INDUCES in
reminiscence this morning because the
Inter Mountain yesterday expressed re-
greet that the state Of Montana whose
prosperity depends largely upon the tar
lift protection Of it's industries should
have cast its vote last fall for a party
welded to free trade or tariff for reve-
nue. which is almost the same thing. It
seemed inexplicable to this newspaper
that even in the wool districts large
vote was cast for the fusion ticket
despite the fact that the republican
ticket was nominated by a splendidly
representative convention and the head
o: that ticket was an ideal citizen. OF
course, in the state at large, issues other
than political were regarded as para
mount with more or less sufficient reason.
The chief trouble. 1t must be candidly
admitted, was that Montana having gone
almost solidly democratic in the previous
der the circumstances existing, to make
q complete reversal. The republicans
made surprising gains and with tina.
record and the promise of future triumph
they must be content for the present.
The Standard, however, should not un-
kindly criticisI the republican campaign.
for the republican ticket suffered during
its progress from nothing so much as
suspicion of some sort of connection or
sympathy with the Anaconda papers
wing Of the democracy. That suspicion
was baseless, it was voiced by a dema-
gogue press. but it operated to decrease
the republican vote just the same as if
II had been true. In the future the re-
publican party will make its separate
identity and interest so plain at the out
set that no man, no matter how great
a liar he may be, will be bold enough to
charge any collision between the repub-
lican party and either wing of the de-
mocracy. for one wing is quite as bad
as the other and both are opposed to the
material welfare of Montana and at war
with it's reputation.

OLD PETE, FAMOUS RnlNocERous.

After six months of hard work David
McCadden, the Iaxidermist at ...e Acad-
emv of Natural Science, has finished the
mounting of l1.e skin of ''Old 4 etc., the
enormous Indian rhlnOcerOs who u.ed OF
old age in the geological gardens January
of this year.
The completion of this work gives that
institution the only stuffed specimen OF
this animal IN the United States. and the
largest one in the world. When alive
pete weighed nearly 1000 pounds; the
manikin covered with his Sam, which Is
now in the academy. weighs only 1850
pounds.
The preparation of the h.de was the
most difficult work the taxidermist had to
do. It was originally from one to three
inches thick an required .nree montns to
pare it down and tan 1t so could be
nut on the frame. While this was being
done Ave men were required to handle eacn
of the three sections OF hue.
The frame manikin, which holds the
skin. is covered with lath over which Is
distributed coo pounds Of prepared clay.
This was put on exactly as plaster Is put
ON the walls and ceiling Of room. Then
the prepared hide was carefully placed
over the counterfeit body Of the rhinoceros.

COPPER PRICES AND POLITICS.

Says the Anaconda Standard this morn
ing:
We have no memory Of a wool cam.
palgn IN Silver Bow county last autumn.
Good figures for copper account for
Butte's splendid industrial conditions,
Did McKinleyism put up the price of cop
per? Not bit of it. Has copper ever
had lobby at Washington craving re-
publican favors in the tariff schedule?
Never. Copper is high because the So
called copper combine put up it's price to
reasonable market figure and keeps it
there. But the Inter Mountain Is always
saying that these combines in the busl-
ness world are the work of democracy
and the devil.
1t was never claimed by a republican
in this state that Mckinley or the pro-
tective tariff put up the price of copper.
1t is fact. however, that the industries
which consume copper have been made
permanently prosperous by the republic
can policy. These industries under free
trade were so depressed that the demand
for raw material, copper included, was
very limited and prices were low. The
Standard may possibly recollect the cop
per quotations under the Wilson law. It
may recollect how the people of Butte
felt during the democratic panic of 1898
when miners in this district were glad to
get work on the B., A. & p. railroad new
building. 1t may recollect the talk about
the imminence Of shutdown by the
Parrot and Boston & Montana and even
the Anaconda shelters or the alternative
| of reducing wages. Surely the Standard
recalls that gloomy period in the history
Of Butte and that of it's own town. It
is fact doubtless that the copper COM
blne helps maintain prices at their pres
ent high level, but no combine could keep
w prices We're it not for the prosperous
condition of the manufacturing indus
tries which owe their splendid growth
to the republican system of protection
So we'll does the Standard know this that
it has not printed free trade article for
years and has allowed even the wool
season to pass without making a single
demand for a free wool schedule.

that the United Verde copper mine is

Cured at the mine or the smelter, though
probably at the latter. The important
point is that great mine producing be-
