he was placed in Trinity college and
there the fervor of his patriotism was
soon made manifest. Being a gifted
orator, his eloquence was used to ex-
pound the cause of Ireland in the col
lege debating societies, and so great
was his ability that the authorities
were put to their wits end to coun-
teract the influence of his eloquence.
Emmett was finally expelled from the
college in 1898, ard the society was
broken up by the drastic punishment
inflicted upon its members. Emmet's
energies were occupied in the agita-
ton of the Irish cause until he was
compelled to flee to the continent,
where, with other Irishmen, he So
licited the assistance of Napoleon,
and in 1903 he returned to Dublin in
disguise. Here ne gathered together
a band of Irish patriots, and the ex-
pected war between France and Eng
land having broken out, he devoted
has energies to the training of his
fG' overs. and the collection of arms
a.: military stores. The date set for
proposed outbreak was July %,
1903, but the arrangements were de-
fective in detail and his followers
failed to appear in any considerable
numbers. Nothing daunted, however,
the young Irisman marched at the
head of less than 100 men toward the
castle. They were followed by noisy
mob, and on the way came in contact
with the carriage of Lord Kilwarden,
chief justice of the kings bench, who
was accompanied by his daughter.
The lord chief justice was killed by
the mob, but Emmett succeeded in
saving the daughter, carrying her
into an adjoining house. Emmet's
lorce melted away without making an
attack on the castle, and he was con-
cealed by friends for month. On
August 25 he was arrested, and on
September 10 was tried and convicted
of high treason. When asked if he
had anything to say why sentence of
death should not be pronounced upon
him Emmett delivered his famous
Speech From the Dock" which for
nearly century mas stood as a mas
terpiece of eloquence and beauty of
patriotic sentiment. The memory of
Emmett is revered by Irishmen the
world over and by every lover of lib
cry as well.

MINNESOTA'S TAX LAWS.

BY a vote of 60 to 81, the house of
the Minnesota legislature has de-
feated the bill to reform the tax laws
of that state. At the last regular. ses-
sion of the Minnesota legislature a
commission was appointed to codify
and formulate new tax laws, and as
soon as the work had been completed
the governor called an extra session
of the legislature to pass the pro-
posed law, and for the further pur-
pose of providing funds to carry on
the legal battle started by Governor
Van SAINT against the big railroad
trust.
For this purpose $4,000 was ap-
propriated by the legislature, but that
body baked when it came to passing
the new tax law Under the old law
it is alleged that a large portion of
property escapes taxation, especially
personal property, thus putting the
greater burden upon the land owners
and farmers.
The new law was opposed by all
of the people and interests whose
property it was designed to reach,
and it is not surprising that the bill
was defeated. A powerful lobby was
maintained in opposition to the bill
by some of the big corporations, and
the wonder is that it received as
many as 81 votes out of the ia cast.
Owing to the failure of the bill to
pass, Governor Van SAINT is being
condemned by the corporation press
for having called the legislature in
extra session. But the governor did
his duty and the attacks of newspa-
pers belonging to ]. ]. Hill and other
magnates will only strengthen him
with the people.

TIT FOR TAT.

President Roosevelt saw fit to with
draw the invitation previously ex-
tended to Senator Tillman to dine
with Prince Hencc;-, and now Lieuten-
ant Governor Tilmann of South Caro-
lima, nephew of Senator Tillman, has
withdrawn the invitation previously
extended to President Rooseve7 10

upon the occasion of the president S
visit to to the Charleston exposition
in the near future.
The president had a right to
withdraw, the invitation to Senator
Tillman; but, in view of the fact that
the invitation was unsought by the
recipient, it was in exceedingly bad
taste for the president to give his
letter of withdrawal to the public
press, thus advertising to the world
the humiliation which he had gratui
tously put upon Senator Tillman.
But the friends of Senator Tillmar
make a mistake in aping the actor
of the president. Two plumbers ar,
never better than one, and when the,
went out of their way to humiliat
the president by publishing the with
drawal of the inv..ation to presen

blunder for which they criticize tn

Instead of three internal revenue
districts in Montana hereafter there
will be only two. Orders have been
issued to that effect by the commits
sioner
The district heretofore handled
from Great Falls mas been discontin-
ued and the district will be attended
to by j. M. Hathaway, the deputy col
lector from the Helena district. J.
M. Burlingame, the deputy collector
at Great Falls, has resigned. ]. w.
Hathaway will take charge of his
field. G. D. French will continue to
be the Butte deputy.
The revenue service, which was
taken out of the civil service by Pres
ident Mckinley, mas now but two Off
GERS in Montana and comprises in
one grand division the states OF Mon
tana, Idaho and Utah. This territory
is cut up into six other divisions,
win two in each state, who do not,
however, confine their jurisdiction to
the state In which their headquarters
are situated; one OIL the Idaho divis-
ions, for instance, including the PAN
handle of Idaho and the counties of
Flathead and Teton in Montana.
With the change, two new depu-
ties have been appointed; one, John
A. Lenzie, at Ogden, for nor ,nern
Utah, and another, James Wooley,
for northern Idaho
eDputy H. Smith Wooley contin-
ues his office in southern Idaho.
Under the new arrangement the
Helena Office, known as division No.

cred by the Great Falls deputy, and
the Helena deputy gives up a section
of his territory to the Butte division

section east of Helena on the Great
Northern railroad and all east of
Bozeman on the Northern Pacific, Civ

Division No. will take the rest
of Montana, with the exception of
Deaverhead and Madison, which go

northern Idaho district.

VICTOR HUGO.

On February 26, 1902, Victor Hugo,
the great French poet and writer,
was born, and in France six days
celebration of the event has just
closed.
Hugo was the founder of a new
literary school in france. He began
as a classicist and became the foun-
der of the romantic school, which
change has been ascribed to his asso-
cation with the brilliant and talented
Madame de Stael The law of classic
literature asserted literature to be q
mirror of the highest culture, each
idea must be beautiful with polish Of
expression, Against this Hugo as
serted true literature to be a mirror
of nature, each idea must be true and
the expression natural; and in spite
of the authorities of centuries stand
ing he compelled the recognition of
his principle and made them an
actual influence in the worlds litera-
lure.
He was banished from France in
1851 by Napoleon, and took up his
residence in the island of Guernsey,
and here he wrote LES Miserables,' .
the most famous of his works. Much
of his work of this period is, how
ever, considered of little value, be-
cause his ire colored and over
Swallowed his talent. His sympathy
with the masses caused him to over
draw and to exaggerate, thus leaving
the school of nature and truth which
he had founded.
He was brilliant not only in verse
and prose, but the drama is also in.
debted to him for many gems. His
romances have the breadth mad
strength of the sea in a storm, while
he pictures the passions of men in
a manner as vivid as is the flash OF
lightning to the eye. But the heighth
of his genius is made more marked
by the faults of his work, his exag
gerations and impossible character
set off the brilliant colorings {.
scenes and characters that seem tt
live and move in his books. The
ridiculous he often makes a fitting
background for the sublime While
many of his works have been trans
} lated into every civilized tongue, his
: books and dramas were written fol-
France, and none but a Frenchmar
can fully appreciate them.
After the fall of the empire, Hugo
5 returned to Paris, where he died OF
, May %, 1885. With all his eccentri
cities of style and diction, he is wei
: worthy the title of the creates
French author"
