DR.. Curtis, who gives his discovery to
the world through the Medical Record,
for the benefit of the afflicted, inclines
to the belief that 60 per cent of the pc -

can be cured, or rendered immune. He
adds: 1T seems reasonable to assuma
that perhaps a tincture OF golden rod or
some other plant may be found etfica

The doctor refrains from theorizins

method as palliative. Meanwhile

PUNISH THE GUILTY.

There is much well grounded COM

Butte touching the leniency of the lower
courts in the punishment of petty crinr-
inals. The moment some offender is ar
rested and arraigned he becomes ap~
parently an object of sympathy in tn.

discharged with reprimand or fined

law. Only a few days ago, in a spirit
OF malicious mischief, a man broke a
plate glass window on Main street.

ment Many a time in this city have
men been fined S. for cruelty beating
their wives. $40 for exhibiting a deadly
weapon and threatening to commit MUIR
der, and imprisoned five days for bur-
glary. Weekly almost for the last five
years the same panel workers, pick
pockets and other petty criminals from
the Mercury street district have been
arrested, tried, found guilty and fined
nominal amounts, only to return to their
dens of vice to resume their work. In
any other place in the United States
such creatures, on the second or third
offense, would get the limit in the way Of
punishment and be ordered to leave the
city, being escorted if necessary to the
borders of the municipality and warned
never to return. In Butte, however,
they are a perpetual bill of expense to
the taxpayers, as we'll as disgrace to
the town. Why they are tolerated here
is inexplicable. Every consideration OF
good government demands that crimi.
nails be treated as criminals, not as
martyrs. The lives and property of the
people and the good name Of Butte de-
mand the vigorous enforcement of the
law in every case of it's infraction, and
the prompt and effective punishment Of
every man who commits a crime.

IS the REMEDY FOR NAY FEVER FOUND.

1t will be an occasion of joy to count

Fiction variously described as hay
fever" "hay asthma" and "rose ca
tarrh" to learn that DR.. Hobrook Curtis
has discovered what may prove a
method Of immunity as we'll as specific
remedy.
For some time medical men have
agreed that the disease is caused by the
inhalation of the pollen of wild or Guilt
waited plants. Roses and other garden
flowers, besides new moWn hay AMI
golden rod, have been held responsible.
Dr. Curtis believes that the majority OF
cases come from rag weed, which grows
abundantly along the road sides and in
fields and waste places, at the very
season of the year the disease develops.
and recurs in it's utmost severity.
Up to the present, hay fever has
baffled the ablest physicians. Change o.
air and cocaine applications have been
the only prescriptions that afforded the
sufferers relief. DR.. Curtis is the first
experimentalist who has hit upon a
treatment that assured at the same tims
q means of prevention and cure He was
led into the path of investigation he is
now pursuing by a female patient who
was employed in a wholesale drug de-

time she entered the ipecac department
she was violently attacked by "crying

perimenting on herself that if she took
few small doses of the drug for several
days before she was exposed to it in the
performance of her duties, the attack
was averted
Shortly after having been informed of
her experience the doctor had to treat a
case of utter prostration from "rose

The profits Of the Old Dominion and
other silver mines in the neghborhood OF
Colville would swell the total of $11,SC.-
500 to point beyond the twelve million
mark. e.
Gold and copper mining throughout the
same region, including as it does Ross
land, Boundary, Mckinney and other pro-
ductive camps. has paid in profits slight
~ less than $3,5oO,oO0. or $500, 900 less
than has the exploitation of the lead-sil-
Yer mines. The showing of the latter is all
the more remarkable, in view of the set
backs experienced, not only in the mat
ter of metal prices, but in the deterrent
and ruinous effect of the two strikes in
the Occur d'Alenes and one in the SLOGAN.
Although little has been. said upon the
subject, the mine managers Of the Occur
d'Alenes are in rebelious temper, not
withstanding the benefits they have en-
| joyed from the high rate on lead. In or
der to sustain the price the trust Is COM
PEELED to suspend purchases occasionally.
This results in piling up the ore until it
becomes desirable, if not necessary to
close the mines. Many Of the mines can
! not close because of the inflow of water.
Nearly two months ago it was pro-
posed to organize distinct Occur

troll its own product, and local mining
interests representing $40, 600, 900 were re-

taken council of their prudence and

INTRIGUE Of A DARING SYNDICATE.

Despite the confidence expressed in
some quarters that the United States
will succeed soon in obtaining the Danish
West Indies by purchase, there is reason
to believe that all negotiations to that
end within the reign of Christian or his
successor, Frederick, are certain to fail.
The new liberal cabinet at Copenhagen
is supposed to favor the sale, but it does
not follow that the king is of like mind.
When the Danish government in 1867
approved treaty providing for the pur-
chase OF the islands, subject to the sane
ton of the inhabitants, they voted with
scarcely a dissenting voice for the
proposed annexation. Our government
failed to avail itself of the treaty, twice
extended within the three subsequent
years, when it lapsed.
The price to have been paid at tn 1t
time was $7,50O,00O. In the recent at
tempts at negotiation the sovereignty
of these strategic possessions has been
valued at only $4,000, 900. If rumors from
the vicinage of the state department are
of sale have come from representatives
of syndicate that is striving to rake
off the profits of promotion. No commu-
nication on the subject has passed be.
tween the Danish government and au-
thorized representatives Of the Unite
States.
The plan Of the syndicate, said to be
composed of business men and politl-
clans. is to secure the passage, by the
Danish legislature, of an act providing
for the sale at figure to be kept secret.
The calculation of the syndicate has
been to add not less than 81, 0O0, 900 to the
price thus fixed, and to force the United
States into buying by placing the islands
within reach of Germany, which is sup
posed to desire their ownership.
With this intrigue, which has it's rami-
fcations in the Danish legislature, Sec
rotary Hay has familiarized himself and
therefore refuses to have any dealings
with the agents of the syndicate. The
most disgraceful phase of the affair is
the unconcealed interest of our minister
at Copenhagen in the advancement of
the syndicate plans. He does not seem
to appreciate that the success of the
syndicate must eventuate in a nasty
scandal in which he would be involved.
Although there is very little sentiment
in Denmark on the subject of the sale.
the liberals and radicals are thought ia
favor the proposition unanimously, while
the handful of conservatives supported
by the king, oppose it. The king has re-
| peatedly expressed the desire to pass to
| his successor the Danish kingdom with
out Impairment; and he further insists
| that although the islands are of no
utility to the government at present.
there is no surmising when they will he.
The crown prince entertains similar
opinions.
| AS Christian is stubborn and defies
his legislature whenever he feels so in
clined, 1t is doubtful whether he would
comply with legislation authorizing him
to dispose of the islands at a stated sum.
