State Auditor Calderhead has issued

lied to do business in Montana. The
ruling was made in answer to a query
from Anaconda as to the status of either

Later returns show that the Dem
ocrats will have ma jority in the state
senate and in this manner they will be
able to head off any partisan legisla-

figures show that the Democrats will

Republicans are hard losers, even
when they got nearly everything ir
sight, and threaten to contest the cleo

is close. There seems scarcely a doubt
that their efforts will be unsuccessful.

Democrats saved one or two offices

The illness Of the young queen of Hol-
land is the cause of great anxiety all
over Europe. Her graces OF character
have epdeared her to tie people, Of the
whole world, and there is on this account
a strong desire that she may recover. In
addition to this there are political
reasons why her de;ith would be regard
led as calamity. Should she dielthere
will be left no one whose title to the
throne would be considered indisputable.
There are many claimants, and in the
struggle for supremacy there is no GER
tainty as to what would be the result 1t
is certain that one OF the principal claim
ants would be a member Of the family Of
the German emperor, and should he sue
ceed there would undoubtedly be an ef-
fort to bring the little kingdom by the
sea into the German confederation.
I Naturally this will be resisted by other
European countries which are jealous Of
the growing power Of Germany, and
while the result may not be a European
war it will certainly be diplomatic fight
the like of which has not been seen for
many years. Grand Forks Herald.

HIGH PRICED BEEF.

Th4high price Of meat is working out
its own remedy, Whether it is the pack
ing trust or the shortage of the corn crop
that makes meat SO high, or botf,. may
be matter Of argument or proof. But
that the con sumption OF meat has fallen
off 33H per Cent in consequence of high
prices is an admitted fact. 1t is the most
general and gigantic boycott ever IN ex-
istence, and that without organized
effort.
We Americans think meat is a neces-
sity on our tables for at least one meal a
day, but when beef steak sells for 40
cents pound as it did one day last week
in Boston, everybody begins to look Tor
substitutes.
The results are disastrous to the retail
butchers as we'll as consumers. They
can make no more profit, if as much, per
pound on high priced beef, than on
cheaper, while they are not able to sell
nearly as many pounds.
Hotel, boarding house and restaurant
keepers find hard lines also. They have
to have beef on the table, and it is
difficult matter to raise the price of
board.
That meat will not be cheap until
another corn crop is harvested, seems to
be certain, though lack of demand may
make prices less than now.
1t will also be some time before cattle
get plenty again, as the high price of
corn and beef have together caused
many young cattle to be sent to the
Slaughter house.
But the farmer, who sees the present
high price of beef, don't want to figure
that this is a good time to buy calves to
sell for beef two and three years from
now. Things may be, and probably
will be just the opposite then, because so
many will now go into cattle raising.
The best way is to always have some
cattle, and when The high price years
come, you will have share.
Locally, two or three years ago, we
sent hundreds of car loads of young
cattle away to southern feeders; they
| would be of considerable value if we had
those same cattle grown to maturity here
now. Local butchers report it almost
impossible to get butcher beef at home
now.

1NHUMAN WAR.

A lot of goody people seem to have
gotten it into their heads that the Ameri.
can soldier in the Philippines has some
how changed into savage beast who
wantonly murders women and children
and to1tures his prisoners like an incar-
nate fiend.
Many of the commanding officers
fought in the civil war-they were not
inhunan then-though no war ever
brought more bitterness of feeling.
These officers for years hunted and bat
tied with the most treacherous and re-
vengeful savages of the world in our own
western states, but our soldiers fought
the Indians with white mans warfare.
In the name and for humanity's sake,
our army met a. foe in Cuba, whose
cruelties to its own people, had become
an unbearable stencil under our very
nostri1s. A foe whose first act of war,
was the blowing up of the Maine, its
guest in time of peace. A foe which in
its defeat acknowledged the unprece-
dented magnanimity and generosity Of
the American soldier and sailor.
Only about twelve-month ago these
same American soldiers landed in China.
There, in company with columns Of
troops from many European nations,
they marched to the relief OF the besieged
embassies at Pekln. Stories OF wild and
cruel excesses, loot, rape and murder,
came back-but the soldiers of the
American army were honored by the
contrast Of their behaviour and that Of
the armies of other nations and the
Chinese themselves regretted to see them
leave as soon as they did. .4
War is hell.' We do not put gloves

Of consolidation of schools would apply
equally as'Well to the consolidation of

independent existence. It's like the
woman's suffrage question, the argu-
menls in favor are mostly unanswerable,
