A POLICE CATECHlSM.

How would prospective policemen Of
Butte enjoy being put through civil
service examination such as Mayor Jones
of Toledo has prepared for applicants
to the police force Of that city? The
Toledo newspapers describe this docu-
ment as theory gone mad" approach
ing imbecilty,' etc, but it is only more
definite expression of the mayors pecu-
liar views to which he is always anxious
to give the largest circulation. Among
the questions set for the patrolmen and
on the proper clucidation of which their
prospects rested are the following:
II you became policeman under what
circumstances would you arrest your own
father, mother, sister, brother, son or
daughter?
Would it be right for you to arrest
another mans son, daughter or near rcla-
tives under less provocation2
Did you ever know punishment or inn
prisonment to make a good citizen out of
a bad one? II yes, state particulars.
ii a policeman should find poor
drunkard unable 10 walk on the street,
in which way is it most likely to help
him 10 become a good citizen. to take
him home or to take him to PRISON. Which
would you do?
Suppose two persons are arrested for the
same oifensc: one had thousands Of dollars.
the other hadn't cent. Is il an equal
punishment to impose a fine of $40 and
costs on each of them
Describe each OF the following oifenscs
against law: Lettering, being suspicious
person, creating disturbance.
Write in your own words and qualities
in a man that you think would make
him a good policeman.
The legislature at its session last win
ter abolished the police board OF which
the mayor was an ex-ofiicio member, and
constituted board appointed by the gov
ernor. but the mayor is fighting the leg
islation in the courts. We commend this
to the attention Of the police of Butte by
way Of showing them how more blessed
it is to be a policeman in Butte rather
than an applicant to the force of at least
one other city.

FEDEnaTIOM TO GO INTO
MINING AND SMELLING
Tim Hurley's Interesting Resolution at
the Denver Meetins-Mr. Boyce's
Insurance Scheme

The Denver Times, in its report of Tues
days meeting of the Western Federation
OF Miners. says: IAN important matter
decided on today was in regard to the
federation entering the minin, milling and
smelling business. Tim Hurley of the Alt
man union introduced resolution the
other day asking the federation to engage
in the mining business. He suggested that
one-thrd of the profits from successful
ventures be given to the workingmen and
two-thirds to the federation, the latter to
advance the money necessary to do the de-
velopment work. His resolution was con-
sidered. but it was decided to have every
member of the federation take part in the
mining venture TO raise the necessary
money each member will be assessed S..
and the fund raised, which will amount to
over 100000, will be used to purchase
and develop mines. The ways and means
committee will report plans and the ex-
ccutive board will handle the money
THE insurance feature recommended
by President Boyce was also adopted
This provides for the payment of money
for accidents to all miners, members of
the federation, after 1907, providing they
have been in good standing for five years.
There will be no assessments. Mr. Boycc
believes that sufficient funds will be on
hand to pay all policies"

not by any means show the increase in
the quantity of the articles under con-
sideration.
The West and Montana as we'll as other
states has peculiar interest in this trade.
Most of the money for these products has
been going to foreign countries. The Phil
ippines are undoubtedly capable, or will be
when developed by American energy, to
supply a large share of the various articles
for which we are now sending our money
abroad. The capacity of the Philippines
for the production Of the fbres, tropical
fruits and nuts, cocoa, rice, spices, dye
woods, indigo, tobacco, sugar and many
other articles which we now import from
the tropics is already assured; and If it
should develop that they can also produce
coffee, tea, silk and rubber, they may not
only prove the great source Of supply for
our requirements of tropical products, but
in so doing would surely grow extremely
prosperous, and thus become large con-
sumcrs of our breadstuffs, provisions and
manufactures Therein will this trade
touch the interests of the Pacific slope and
the west, for by the development of COM
mcrcc with the Philippines we get into
more intimate trade relations with China
and Japan and expand the markets in the
Far East for our own products. But par.
ticularly will the development Of the Phil
ippines be of great advantage to the whole
country especially to the western and
northwestern states. Mr. Austin pro-
pounds this question, and it certainly is
"A most pertinent one: at is not possible,
even probable, that when American capi-
tai shall have supplied the steamships,
railways and roads needed to bring to our
markets the products of the soil and for
ests and mines Of our various tropical
possessions. and have developed their pro-
ducing capacity by opening plantations and
mines. we may be able to expend in them
a large share of the $500, 1000, 900 per an
mum which we are now sending to other
countriesi"

THERE seems to be few things produced
anywhere in the world that cannot be pro-
duced in the United States. The newest
industry is the production Of arsenic and
the Northwest is doing it. DR.. Joseph
Struthers. in Mineral Resources OF the
United States" says that the manufacture
OF arsenious oxide was begun in an expert
mental way in Seattle, in 1901, and that
year an output of 900 short tons was placed
on the market Previous to 1901 the
worlds supply Of arsenic and arsenious
compounds was derived chiefly from the
mines in Cornwall and Devon, England
and at Frciburg, Germany In 1899 the
worlds production OF the forms of arsenic
amounted to I4,o36,165 pounds valued at
$5Si,oII. The imports Of arsenic into the
United States in the last five years have
averaged about $4,000 a year, which
seems to show that the manufacture of
arsenic and its compounds in this country
could be proftably attempted

About Thunder Mountain.

To the Editor of the Inter Mountain:

! did not say there is no way to get in
from Three Forks. said stages do not
get in to the Three Forks and they don't,
either. And furthermore il is as easy
to get into Three Forks via Salmon as il
is Mackcy.
Click is either too ignorant to read

professional Idaho misrepresentation"

ing as the average man, and considerably
more than an expert, and in conclusion |
want to say again as before, that consid-
ering the amount Of development work

by these developments, having the Dewey

Thunder Mountain is the climax OF all

According to the Seattle Times there
has arrived in this country Baron Eilchi
Shibusawa, Millionaire, the leading
business man of the Japanese empire and
peer Of the realm who comes hither to
meet ]. Pierpont Morgan with view to
forming gigantic shipping combination
to control the Pacific trade. The dis
tinguished Jap is already considerable
factor in this trade inasmuch as he prac-
ticaily controls the largest Japanese ship
ping concern, the Japanese Imperial Mail,
with its large feet Of steamers and dock
ing facilities in every important port in
Japan. This is taken to mean that his
business with Mr. Morgan must have
much significance. 1t is likely that
these two gentlemen will confer

before they sign papers. Mr.. Hill has it
in his power to be considerable factor
in the Pacific trade himself, and more

About Cree Indians,

About Cree Indians.
To the Editor of the Inter Mountain:
AS a full-blooded Cree Indian let me
make protest against the action of the
Deer Lodge county officers and the senti-
ment expressed in the press of Butte and
Anaconda with regard to my people.
We Crees, once the owners of all this
vast country, believe that we have suffered
many injustices at the hands of the
whites. We have become the Ishmael-
ties OF the prairie, not through choice,
however, but by force of circumstances.
We are accused of being hungry and of
pilfering garbage heaps for food. That's
a crime. Poverty is crime. We are ac-
cused of being dirty. That's crime.
But now comes the crowning injustice
which would he more annoying il it were
not touched with humor.
We are accused Of washing in one
OF the streams and polluting the water
We can't express our feelings in this
matter. Once we owned the Missouri,
the Yellowstone, Milk River and all the
mighty streams that come laundering
down from the mountains on their way to
the great waters, and now we must move
on because our papooses washed in the
little ax4 stream that runs sluggishly along
the sulphur-laden valley of Deer Lodge.
There, once we roamed happy and free
buffalo meat instead of swil barrels, and
sweet air instead of sulphur fumes.
The white mans Christ had not where
TO lay his head. The red mans exiled
Cree has not where to wash his feet
Yours truly, CARLISLE.

THE names of the new owners of the
Philadelphia Record, who bought that
newspaper the other day at public auction
for something over $4,000, 900, have been
disclosed. The new proprietors are Ex-
Secretary of State William S. Stenger,
John Wyeth and Henry B. Gross, promi-
nent manufacturers Of Philadelphia, and
Ex-Congressman James Kerr, of Clear
field, Pa. These men arc prominent in
the political and industrial affairs OF the
Keystone state and will maintain the
Record on the high plain upon which its
founder the late William M. Singerly,
placed it. 1t is by all odds the most in
fluential democratic newspaper in the state,
if not in the east, and significant fact is
that the new management has no sympathy
with the political fagaries of William 7,
Bryan of Nebraska, and it is extremely
doubtful il the Record would support him
if he were to receive the nomination. Mr..
Bryan might chew the sad circumstance
and derive such comfort from the cud as
may be extracted thercfrom.

Throwing back the lap robe she found her
skirts were on fire, having caught from
lighted cigar which the young man had

ran into nearby house, where several
people helped extinguish the flames, and
where she borrowed a skirt which was

THE WEST AND THE TROPICS.


The current number OF the Forum CON
tains an interesting article by O. p. Aus

the growing dependence Of the United
States upon the tropics for the comforts
and requirements of daily life. 1t will
surprise good many to know that we are
now importing upwards of S. 900 900 worth
OF tropical and sub-tropical foodstuffs and
raw materials every day in the year. Prac-
ticaly all of the imports from Asia, Africa
and Oceanica, and very large share of
those from America, south of the United
States, are tropical or sub-tropical. China,
japan and India furnish the bulk of the
importations from Asia and of our imports
from these countries, silk, fibres, tea, rice
and goat-skins form fully four-ffths Of the
total value; while most of the merchandise
from the other parts of Asia is even more
strictly tropical. While the num-
Der Of articles imported from tropi-
cal and sub-tropical countries is,
OF course, very large, the most important
are sugar, coffee, raw silk, inda-rubber

these ten articles aggregated in value $,4o,-
954,7o7, or 81 per cent OF the total of $4os.-
100000 or importations of what may be
