A. l.. Preston, president of the Yankee Citizens
and Miners association, in the city this week
and states that everything is getting in shape for
the best summer in the history of the camp. The

Clark Cleveland Goes Through

Clark Cleveland, charged with the murder of
the morning train yesterday His face is bronzed
and probably for the purpose of effecting better
disguise he has allowed his chin whiskers to grow
There was apparently nothing nervous about his
actions and he talked freely of his life while fugi
tive from justice, But once did the tears well up
in his eyes and that when he was told that he
was close to the wife and baby.
'Yes, and God knows l want to see them
again p he exclaimed ''The hard part of dodging
and shyng around realize that there are loved
trouble had, but it was pretty hard to stand the
worry for myself and family"
"How did they come to get you 2'' asked.
"a man named Northrop, who knew me- gave
the tip while was in lumber camp sixty miles
from Kingman. He got $50, half of the reward :"
"How long was you with your sister in Morri-
son?"
"Only little while I have been through to
the coast and every place. all the time lodging and
worrying. am glad it is over with and glad that
I am caught. I will take whatever get and then
try to redeem myself after it is all 1 have
made up my mind to make the best of it,
He sat in his seat in the smoker securely hand
cuffed and talked with apparently idea of con-
cealing anything. The worry of his wife and
friends excites him than anything else, and
in speaking of the future he said Whatever they
do can be little worse than what l have already
gone through. All these reports about my being in
hiding at Morrison are foolish and the fellow who
got them up is lying I was out of this country in
a few hours after l left.''
Deputy District Attorney Smith states that the
preliminary will be held at Georgetown today. The
father of the young is being held in jail as a
witness. The report that demonstrations are liable
to is not believed by anyone.

THREE
DAYS OF
SPORT
Thousand Dollars a Day
Will be Spent for
Entertainment.

It has been finally decreed that Idaho Springs
should lead the list of the cities of the state in
of the most royal three-day celebrations and tourn-
aments to be held in Colorado on the occasion of
the the nations birthday.
The committee has made partial canvas of the
situation and will experience trouble whatever
in obtaining all the money required which will
probably be in the neighborhood of $1,000.
On Tuesday evening meeting of the 6remen
was held at which committees appointed and
everything started in the direction of big celebra
ton Bert clute, Sam Brouthers H. L. Robinson
and R. R. Graham comprise the executive commit
tee and the selection ought to aid materially in
making the celebration 1t is the inten-
ton to have the big event three days, July 3, 4
and s. and there will be surcease of Joy.
+. A. Moss appointed chairman of the COM
mittee transportation with the privilege of ap-
pointing his other members to act in conjunction
with him. R. c. Bonney is chairman of the COM
mittee advertising and also has the right to
make the appointments of the remainder of the
committee. City Marshal O'Rourke will attend to
the arrangement of the places for the various con-
tests and other committees will be appointed
later on.
Baseball double and single handed rock drilling
the contest with air drills, meeting of the rife
and shotgun shots from all parts of the state, the
tournament of races for prizes among the fre1nen,
fireworks, grand balls and hundreds of other feat
ures will contribute to make it of the most in
teresting events of the year.
S. A. Knowles will be chairman of the commit
tee the contest with air drills and the New
house management has kindly consented to furnish
the air for the drills. This will be one of the
unique contests in the history of mining contests,
and all the great drill manufacturing companies are
preparing to ges in line for the contest.
While the entire matter is in sense still in en-
bryo yet there is doubt regarding the success of
the big celebration. The people with the BOYS
and from all parts of the state the wish comes
through the press and correspondence that Idaho
Springs will prepare great tournament
Nothing should be left undone to make the af-
fair Advertising will be the secret of the
success of the three-day's blowout, and if Mr.
Bonney accepts he will make the best possible per
chairman of the advertising committee As
this paper often stated the proposition should
partake of the nature of a state affair

THE LAZARETTO.

A vigorous protest against WilcoX's
Ieper bill is an excellent method of
meeting that infamous measure. The
press outside Of Wilcoxs own organ,
has vigorously denounced it, and if a
protest goes forward under the auspices
of the Republican Central Committee it
win be Of additional and incalculable
strength. The arguments against the
bill are so cogent and so strong, and
have been put forward so often that
they need hardly be recapitulated.
1t would be a great wrong to the Ha-
waiians, who might in year or two
be torn from their native cline and ex-
ported to some distant Isle at the whim
of Congress. What makes life tolerable
to the residents at the settlement is the
constant correspondence which can be
carried on by friends and the rapidly
with which replies can be received. This
would not be the case if the unfor-
Inmates were transported to some place
a couple Of thousand miles off with
mails at rare intervals. Though isoIat-
ed, our lepers are not depOrted nor
eXiled. More over by means of a stock
ade it is possible at times for friends
to meet
That if the lepers from the various
states We're to be sent to Molokai, the
settlement would soon be overful is very
plain. The settlement is only one mile
wide by three miles long, and much
of this is broken ground unfit for either
cultivation or habitation. 1t now has
LOO people or more resident on the
place. 1t will not accommodate so very
many more. The moment that the ac-
commodatiOns become too narrow, Con-
gress would decide to move the whole
settlement and Hawaiians and main
landers would be deported en- masse.
Then there is the consideration of I'M
congenial surroundings to the mainland
lepers, who would not be satisfied with
their Hawaiian companions, which
would to endless quarrels and eventual
ly. perchance to homicide. Lastly there
is the consideration of the clean. who
would lead to endless quarrels ana
eventually perchance, to homicide.
Lastly there is the consideration of the
clean, who would find their beautiful
islands classified as the Lazaretto of
the new world ana the islands would
be stunned by every tourist and travel
Ter instead Of being sought as now. 1t

SAYS ALOHA

The French cruiser Protet sailed this
morning promptly at 10 o'clock, for
Acapulco, Mexico. There was no de-
mOnstration whatever when the vessel
left port, not a salute being fired by
either her guns or by those at the
United States naval station
The anchor was weighed shortly be-
fore 10 O'clock and the Protet was we'll
under way down the channel by four
bells. French Consul Vizzavon visited
the vessel earlier i'm the morning to bid
the officers bon voyage.
. The flag was dipped three times as
she passed the Inter-Island wharf. 1t
is expected that the vessel will go to
Papeete, Tahiti from Acapulco as the
orders to visit the Mexican port were
received unexpectedly and necessitated
countermanding the original orders
which directed the cruiser to go to the
Society Islands. Captain Barnaud who
is in command Of the South Atlantic
SQUADRON as we'll as the Protet will
probably be made an admiral within
few months.

A GOOD FIGHT

Ii looks very much as If Judge Gear
is losing his temper, and that Attorney
General Dole is keeping his. Judge
Gears position, as shown in rhe Star
of yesterday, is by no means a thor
oughly logical one, and he apparently
wants to supplement Or bolster At up
by implied discourtesy not that any
enc would, for an instant imagine that
so refined a man as the Judge would
be guilty of actual discourtesy
What the general public looks at in
this matter is the fact that the Judge
| is anxious to let the murderers, rapists
and other blackguards loose upon the
|cCmmunity, because he has pinned his
faith to a political shibboleth handed
t. him by his colleague, and swallowed
|hclus bolus The Attorney General on
the other hand is striving to keep
Judge Gears lambs locked UP till a
superior power to Judge Gear decides
what is right and what is wrong, As
soon as that power speaks Attorney
General Dole ceases to fight. But fight
ing as he is now doing is not fighting
for politics, not fighting for popularity,
but fighting for justice and morality.
Attorney General Dole has the sup
port of all right thinking men. Tachni-
! cally ne may be beaten but until his
position is overturned by the Supreme
Court of the United States he is justi-
fed and right to stand ov his guns,
and use every means in his power to
keep murderers, rapists and other
criminals from being turned loose upon
a suffering community, simply because
la minor judge has pinned his faith to
an idea and sees that he has the pow
err, for a moment to carry that idea

HOPE SPRINGS ETERNAL"

The reduction Of the Cuban tariff
which has caused so much interest
throughout the sugar markets of the
world, seems likely to prove an abor-
tive movement According to the latest
kilograms the Committee upon Ways
and Means, before whom the tariff re-
duction has been argued has a ma
jority against reduction. Whether the
vote will stand ten to seven or nine 70
eight does not seem certain, but that
there will be an adverse vote seems
assured.
Much evidence against-th the reduction
has come from the beet growing inter-
ests, and in this undoubtedly the De-
partment Of Agriculture has assisted.
The development of the beet sugar in
dustry is one of the pet schemes of the
Department, and it's officials mar
shalled their statistics and figures in
full array when they We're called upon
10 bring them forward. 1t was shown
that the Cuban planters We're not
suffering from any cause from the
United States, but that it was Europe
which was affecting them. The Kartel
system of Germany was very thor
Oughly discussed and explained in
these columns a few days ago. 1t is a
plan by which the price of beets and
beet sugar can be kept up in Ger
many, far above the market rates of
the article in the open market
DR.. Wiley of the Department OF
Agriculture was quite eloquent upon
this point. He pointed out that the
cause of the trouble the Cuban plant
ers and spectators are fighting is not
in the tariff duties of the United
States, but is the overproduction Of
sugar, due to bounties granted by Eu-
rope Their cause should be pleaded
in the parliaments of Europe, not in
that of America. Their suit should go
before the Reichstag and the Bundles
rath, and not before the American
Congress. The place to plead their
cause is before the Congress of Brus-
sells, not before the Ways and Means
Committee of the Congress of the Unit
cd States"
IhlS is pretty strong language, but
the strength of it's language lies in it's
truth. DR.. Wiley went on to show that
the breaking down of the Cuban tariff
vas going to break down the growing
sugar Industry of the United States in
deed the argument NIGH, have been
carried further and it might have been
shown that it was the entering wedge
for breaking down that system of pro-
lection to our industries which has
made them so highly developed as they
are today
The fact is that Cuba is now fun of
spectators who are calculating upon
the influence of President prejudiced
i'm favor Of the Island, and of the in
huence which General Wood has over
him, to make large fortunes. But the
Senate of the United States has no
particular predictions for Cuba. It
was willing that the country should
