THE largest battle ship a1oat has
just been built by Japan. 1t is the
Mikasa with a displacement of s.
$50 tons. 1t is but little more than
a century since that nation was a
closed book to the civilization of
the world; but fifty years have
brought great changes in the land
OF the little brown men and they
are rapidly coming to the front.
Japan evidently intends to have
something 10 say about affairs on
the other side of the globe.

THE pOpulist advisory committee
Of the state, which met at Boise
Wednesday, decided to keep in the
middle Of the road. They will not
follow the advice of Senator Heit-
field and their national leaders to
abandon party organization and
go into the democratic party. We
believe they are making a fatal
blunder, and when the votes are
counted next November, the lead
ers will find that the rank and file
have abandoned them for democ-
racy. The Boise meeting was CON
trolled by politicians seeking Office
through fusion with other parties
and it will be the plan Of this crowd
to attempt to force a fusion with the
democratic party next fall for the
purposeot obtaining the lions share
OF the elective and appointive Offices.
They accomplished this act in he
last campaign, but will never be
able 10 do 50 again. In the distri-
button OF patronage at Boise last
winter the most hogish demands
came from the populist Office seek
ers. The silver republican party is
dead and most Of its members are
in the democratic party. The pop
ulist party is a copse and most Of
its members are in the democratic
party. And it would be good poll
tics for the few remaining members
OF these parties to come in before
they get cold feet.

FATHER PURCELL writes to criti-
else the PRESS for giving the news
regarding the Brady will case, stat
ing that his structures upon the
former jury were made because they
did not decide on the evidence, but
upon their own opinion With
all due respect to the priest, and no
dclre to take sides in the unfortun-
ate controversy over the Brady
children and the $1,000 involved
IN the case, we do not believe that
he IS III a position to impartially
Judge the motives Of the jury, as he
IS the principal person involved in
the controversy. We find that the
second jury has just confirmed the
verdict Of the jury which the priest
crltlcises, and believe that all men,
regardless Of their religion, politics
or condition, will agree that the
verdict Of two juries of his peers is
to be taken for more than the word
OF an individual. Twice a Jury
has said that Brady was not com
petent to make a will at the time of
his alleged signing of the document
purportlng to be his last will and
testament. These verdicts ought
to satisfy all reasoning persons and
we know that the public generally
looks upon the matter in this light.
Father Purcell is fairly beaten and
ne ought TO accept the verdict grace
fully and feel thankful that he is
legally relieved Of the responsibility
and care Of the two children for a
term Of twelve or fifteen years.

THE secretary of the interior
asks an appropriation of $500, 600
for Use i'll protecting the govern
ment forest reserves. If members
OF congress knew half as much
about forest reserves as people re-
siding in the vicinity OF these plots
OF ground that are to be the bord-
ers OF civilization, the appropria-
ton to maintain force Of govern

amount to one bean.

BOISE seems to be agitated over
the prospect of losing its army post.
C9ur d Alene once experienced Just
such spasm, and when it was FIN
ally decided to abandon Fort Sher-
man, some of our people had faces
on them of unusual length. We
were afraid of the result: but time
has proven that the abandonment
OF the post was an actual benefit TO
the town MANY people who had
obtained living out OF the comis-
sary and post exchange, by pur-
chasing goods from soldiers at less
than wholesale cost, began buying
OF our merchants after the soldiers
lett, and in less than six months
the improved conditions began to
make it plain that the post had
been a detrlmeut To the business in
terests OF the town rather than a
benefit. We are speaking purely
from a financial point of view, for
all admit that it was a pleasure to
have the soldiers here and enjoy
their drills, dress parades and ex-
cellent band music

AUTHOR OF THE MOCKING
BIRD.

Septimus Winner, song writer, died
at his home in Philadelphia, Sunday,
aged seventy-six years Sep" Win
ner, as he usually wrote his name,
wrote and sold more songs, and wrote
more instrumental music and adapted
it to more kinds of Instruments than
any other man in the world He was
one of the writers who composed the
stirring war time songs which were
sung from one end of the Union to the
other Among the best known songs
are Listen to the Mocking Bird
and What is Home Without "a
Mother?" He was intensely patriotic
and remarkably loyal to his friends
His espousing the cause Of Gen, Nc
Clellan at the time of his recall from
the army of the Potomac landed him
i'll military prison on the charge of
treason. The troops, incensed at the
recall of their hero, We're demanding
Give us back our Mack, Winner
wrote song around the refrain,
which he emitted, Give Us Back Oul
Old Commander. More than 56, 00C
copies of the song were sold within a
few days of its issue.

HIS VIOLIN.

Benjamin +. Wheeler of Calais is
one of the happiest men i'll Washing
ton county today, all on account of
violin which he made more than
twenty five years ago. Mr. Wheeler
is-a lover of music in general, but his
chief passion is for the violin; and in
his younger days he used to nley the
instrument i'm church and for singing
schools in the vicinity Of his home.
Then he made violin for his own
use, with which he was well pleased.
He was not satisfied, however, until
he should have an opportunity to hear
its tones when. a master hand drew
the bow. Sometime ago he heard
Fred II. Whittier Of Wilder S orches-
ira play, and secured from him a
promise ito try the violin he had
fashioned so carefully The promise
was fulfilled this morning and that
is why Mr., Wheeler is happy. He
brought the instrument to Wilder S
music store and as Mr.. Whittier drew
from it the sweet strains of the fPris-
on Sons" from IL Trovatore. The
old gentleman s face fairly beamed
with joy: and after Mr.. Whittier had
played the Intermezzo from 'Caval-

DOWN THE HILL TOGETHER.

Saturday, Nov 22, was the sixtieth
anniversary and wedding day of Orson
and Emerancy Pearce Putnam of
Woodbury.. Such an unusual event
was not to pass unnoticed, and rela-
tives and old friends gathered at an
early hour in the afternoon at the
home of Edwin Burnham to celebrate
the day. Hearty handshakings, warm
greetings and pleasant interchange of
sentiment made a merry babel of
sound until about two clock, when
bountiful dinner of chicken pie and
all manner of good things was served.
Conspicuous among the guests, and
seated at the left hand of the eighty
four years old groom, was Sayles Car
yer of Marshfield, who was best man
at the wedding sixty years ago. At
the close of the dinner Mrs. Satyra
Sabin, an old neighbor, read an origi-
nal article, a series of pen pictures of
the life of the worthy couple. The
wedding, " THE village blacksmith,
jovial and big hearted, " The home,
with its light, laughing girl who
sang like a bird. !" Then she touched
upon those sadder ones that come in
life 5 autumn, but all lightened and
frightened by the love of friends.
Following this came letters from
nieces, Mrs. j. G. Brown of Dorches-
ter. Mass, and Mrs. Hiram Wells of
Cabot and an original poem from a
nephew. H. n. Pearce of Blooming
ton, Ill. The afternoon mail brought
nearly a score of letters of congratu-
lation The sum of $50 was left with
friends as pleasant reminder of a
day that comes to but few.
Both Mr.. and Mrs. Putnam We're
born in East Calais and We're married
at the home of the bride father,
Judge Alonzo Pearce. Most of their
married life has been spent i'll Calais
and Woodbury.. Two children only
were born to them, one of whom died
III infancy, the other, daughter,
married Edwin Burnham, but left
/ them childless four years ago.
Both Mr.. Putnam and his wife
come from long lived families, his
parents having lived together sixty
six years, while not only her parents
but the grandparents on both sides
! lived together past the golden we'd
ding day Both enjoy good degree
of strength, physical and mental, he
thinking nothing of walking several
miles and enjoys as much as ever
keeping in touch with the world
through the daily papers: while she
does her own housework, sewing and
reading without the aid of glasses.
May the blessing Of health and
strength continue with them many
years,

leria Rusticana with piano accom-
paniment by Mr.. Wilder, he carefully
laid the beloved instrument in it's
crude box and said he was satisfied.
The violin is really superior piece
of work for an amateur maker and it's
tones are sweeter than many more
pretentious instruments. One novelty
about the violin is its horn pegs,
which material is excellent for the
purpose. When asked concerning the
value of his masterpiece Mr.. Wheeler
said he had never set a price upon it
but it was easy to see that in his
eyes it was well nigh priceless.
