camp it is thought best for many
reasons TO hold the encampment ear
lier this year.

A GREAT tUlOGY.

Secretary Hays eulogy OF the late
President William Mckinley Will go into
history as one OF the most scholarly and
eloquent orations ever delivered In this
country. In beauty of distion. In senti-
ment, in pathos II equals. if 1t does not
transcend. Blaine's eulogy of Garfield.
This may be party because the character
of Mckinley was more interesting and
his achievements greater than were those
of Garfield, and party because the love
which Secretary Hay bore Mckinley
was deeper than that which Blaine had
and the same interest therein, II Is not
certain that Hay could deliver a finer
oration than the great statesman who
was Gariield's secretary of state, yet
1t must be confessed that the political
literature OF the nation will contain no
rarer gem than the tribute which john
Hay paid to his late beloved chief. II
has put into enduring form, in the Ian
guage OF love, the record of McKin-
ley's life and deeds Mckinley viii rank
one of the presidents who accomplished
great things for his countrymen, and set
an example of patriotism, statesmanship
and Christian effort from which for all
time lessons may be drawn for the
guidance and instruction of the youth or
the land. He was the chief figure in
the beginning OF new era-an era OF
Industrial and commercial expansion, Of
participation In the affairs of nations,
and of the exercise OF the power Of the
nation as a moral force In the adjust
ment OF the worlds diplomacy The
logic of events, the demands of humans
ity, the needs of business and commerce
brought Mckinley TO the fore for the
inauguration of that great work. In that
capacity no man was so close to him
or knew his mind and abilities so well
or loved him with such cause or such
sincerity than Secretary Hay. The lat
tet's eulogy of his dead chief Is a master
piece of rhetoric, because 1t is an eX-
preston of the affection OF one great
man for greater.

A HOUSE DIVIDED.

The democratic party has two distinct
branches. and the breach between them
Is widening every day. Bryan processes
leadership of the Western branch, and
amayed against him is the Eastern body
under the leadership of such men as
Hill, German, Whitney Shepherd, olney
and Cleveland The Commoner's editor
crticises the leaders in his party who
are not content to accept him as the
mentor of their political belief, and in
turn Bryan is criticised as being the arch
itect of successive party misfortunes and
without finely developed political judg-
ment. That there will be a contest for
the leadership between the two branches
of the party is certain. What it's result
will be no one can foresee. 1t is the
general belief that Bryan will be left
in the lurch when the time comes to
make up the list of party leaders, and
those who know the obstreperous Ne
braskan are sure that he will not be
either mild nor judicious in his attacks
If he Is left outside the breastWorks
Before many months the fun may be
expected to begin in earnest.
The Butte inter mountain., 1902-03-01

BY degrees Secretary of War Root is
working out his plans for army legisla-
tion and reform. His latest proposition,
recently submitted to congress, provides
for the consolidation of the quartermas-
ters, subsistence ard pay departments
into one supply corps, under one chief,
and for the creation of a general staff
whose duties shall be to consider the mil
itary policy of the country and prepare
plans for the national defence and for the
mobilization of troops In time Of war,
and to devise means for the cooperation
of the military and navl forces OF the
United States with view to their har.
monious action in time Of war. This is
but part of general scheme for the i'm
provement of our military efficiency,
portion of which was not long ago an
nounced in the submission of a plan for
putting the National Guard at the dis
posal of the government for service in
emergencies and for organizing reserve
volunteers to supplement the regular
army in time of war.
The latter proposition has been favor
ably received by the country, and there
is no reason why the former should not
be accepted. AS organized now, the quar-
termaster's, subsistence and pay bureaus
are under separate heads, each acting in
dependently except under general orders.
Even with the completest harmony be-
tween them, occasions would arise when
confusion and waste could not be avoid
ed; for with divided responsibilities and
separate action the work Of one would
not always fit into that of another.
When, as was witnessed during tine war
with Spain, their action was not at all
times harmonious and there were mutual
chickering's and jealousies, the army of
certain to suffer through the lack of CO.
operation in the distribution of supplies;
and when the responsibility Is divided,
it is not easy to fix the blame for mis-
carriage. Under one transportation d.
vision, as now proposed, there VIII be no
scramble on the part of one bureau to
secure conveyance of supplies at the ex-
pense of another, and we will not find

TIE PACIFIC CABLE.

The house committee on Interstate
and foreign commerce has stirred up
hornets nest by reporting In favor Of
a Pacific cable owned and operated by
the government.The committee believed
1t would be to the best interests of the
United States to have the cable owned
by Uncle Sam, and the only objection
that can be brought against the plan
Is that II smacks too much OF socialistlc
doetrlne and has a flavor of novelty,
having never been tried before. To most
people these objections are not strong
enough to found decision upon. If it
Is best for the government to own the
cable, what matters where the sugges-
tion emanates? 1t Is not denied that
1t would be immensely beneficial to the
United States in every way to have the
cable in operation soon. To have it
owned and operated by The government
insures excellent service and low rates,
and If these are secured the patrons will
hardly decide that these fruits of gov
ernment ownership are too offensive to
be gathered. The plan of the house
committee is better than any that is now
before the public

SPRlGGS IN BOSTON.

Ex-Lieutenant Governor Spriggs, who
has been mining in Butte for some time,
Is visiting town In Massachusetts,
marked on the map as Boston. 1t must
be somewhere in the backwoods, as the
genial Mr.. Spriggs has plainly UNDER
taken to give the people a jolly. unless
some man has been giving him one. He
Is quoted in the Boston Financial News
as follows
The Amalgamated- Heinze fight shows
no signs of terminating, reports to the
contrary Notwithstanding. Every ANAL
gamated stockholder viii agree that the
sooner this young man is placated the
better 1t will be for that company. If,
as was stated II is the purpose of the
Amalgamated company to make him
general manager of all of their mines,
Ii would be a good solution of the whole
difficulty.
That yarn about Mr. HeinZe and the
Amalgamated was exploded ten days
ago, but this may be news in Boston. 1t
has kept the Analgamated people and
Mr.. Heinze in roars of laughter ever
since II was started as 1t was at first
believed TO have emanated from the
East, where some people might have
been concerned about the facts. 1t de-
veloped however, that the yarn was
based on a fake telegram which never
saw telegraph wire. so what was at
first thought to be rumor that had re-
ceived some credit, proved as baseless
as the fabric of vision. Since then
the mirth OF the Montana Ore Purchas-
ing company and the Ama'gamated COM
pany has subsided and both companies
are looking for the modern Munchauser
who faxed the pool-room telegram ou
of his own inner consciousness.

ON A SOUND BASIS.

When a run on a Detroit savings
bank occurred the other day the bank
had money enough in its vaults to pay
it's depositors in full and ample credit
upon which to rely In case of necessity.
Under the law, a savings bank Is allowed
sixty days in which to settle with de-
positors but the Detroit concern not
only refused to take advantage OF this
provision in the law, but kept open Its
doors three hours later than usual, to
allow depositors to withdraw their
funds SO immediate was the effect upon
anxious depositors that many deposited
their funds again before leaving the
bank. Had the run been met unsuccess-
fully il is not improbable that the news
of the crisis would have preclptated
panic among depostors in other sec
tons of the country. Fortunately. the
financial institutions OF the country are
not in the panicky condition they were
In during 1893. In these days of general
prosperity banking institutions rest upon
a iirm foundation. They are the barom-
eters which indicate the condition OF
business and from present indications
there Is not a cloud on the financial
horizon.

REFORMING THE ARMY
[Seattle Pos t-Intelligencer.1

the troops at a given point oyerburdened
with one sort of supplies and lacking in
another. One man will be held to ac-
count, and he will be known.
The general staff Is to consist of board
of expert officers, with the ranking gen.
eral of the army at its head. It's duties
are described in general terms above.
Not the least advantage of this plan Is
the definite position 1t gives to the COM
manding general of the army, whose du-
ties at this time appear to be more as
figurehead than as performing any
particular function. At the head of the
general staff he will find employment at
once honorable and useful, while the
business of the army will be under the
direction of the secretary Under Sec
retary Roots plan the general in COM
mand, with the rank of lieutenant gem
eral will be definitely placed as the
highest authority on strictly professional
matters, with board of experts to ad-
wise. He will then know what he Is ex-
pected to do and what he sis expected to
do
The old system has been prolific of dis
contented commanding generals simply
because often their commands were NOM
inal rather than actual. The new system
will put the head of the army on \ defin-
ite footing, in position where he Will
have acknowledged duties to perform,
and removing from him the temptation
to criticise divisions of the army with
which he will not have direct connec-
ton. This will be a blessing in itself,
not alone on account of the present COM
| manding general but all his successors
and the army at large.

CITY GOVERNMENT.

In the city of Baltimore public fran
chises are either sold to the companies
to which they are granted or else re-
quired to pay into the city treasury a
proportion of their receipts. The Balti-
more street car companies not only pay
for the streets they use, but also con-
tribute to the city per cent per annum
OF their gross receipts. The telephone
and electric light companies have ac-
quired their franchises under similar
conditions. The city charter also re-
stricts the power of the aldermen to
legislative work only, all other matters
being In the hands OF competent and
we'll paid officials whose actions are
subject to close scrutiny and whose re-
ports are published in minutest detail.
AS result, there are no grating, no
favoritism, no peaeeldAge rrake-oH ana
no other sharp work at the. expense OF
the Taxpayers.

The total dividends paid the above
named companies since they first began
the distribution of profits is $15S 1856 79S
The dividends this year will show
considerable falling off, owing to the
decline in the copper market, though
some companies which erected improved
reduction plants will be able in a meas
ure TO survive the depreciation without
disseminating dividends. The new plant
of the Amalgamated will enable that
company to compete with the greatest
of the older companies. Some of the
smaller concerns will suffer and pros
pectors and leasers will feel the effects
Of the copper war. BY this time, how
ever, they have studied the situation,
and now realize that the men whose at
tacks on the Amalgamated and on the
holders Of the copper surplus forced
down the market price of copper, are
solely responsible for the present depres-
sion. Had the so-called trust" been let
alone, copper would still be 16 cents and
the prospects for AN early resumption
of production at full blast would have
been excellent.

OUR "ADULATION"
milwaukee Sentlnel.1

Colonel Henry Watson declines to ex-
press his personal opinion Of what he
calls this adulation of Prince Henry's
but his choice of the term "adulation"
is significant. Probably IL forced into
the open. he would say ditto to Mr..
Bryan" and agree with that plain man
and laborious editor that the republic
Is going to the demnition bow vows, and
that after a generation or so we shall
have a coronation of some Lords
anointed" of our own near the nvery
spot where plain Tom jefferson . tied
his nag to the fence post 3As
1t Is the same old democratic plaint
that has been dinned into the ears of
the American people from the days of
the patron saint of the party down to
our own. Jefferson groaned all his
days over the doings of the "mono-
Gratis" and actually suspected George
Washington of aiming at crown.nNow
we have the jeremiads of Mr.. Bryan
In the Commoner In fact, It Is al
ways your thoroughgoing democrats who
show least faith I'm the durability of
democracy as form of government.
If the American republic were so sicbly
plant as men as the Bryan stripe
would have us believe 1t would be hard
ly worth preserving.
An ounce of the robust faith in the
American people of stalwart republicans
like Abraham Lincoln and Theodore
Roosevelt Is worth ton of the per-
petual suspicious and apprehensons of
these croakers who are now In tremor
over the "adulation Of Prince Henry"
Colonel Watterson genially points out
that our fiattery OF the kaiser's brother
Is at all events no more "fulsome" than
the welcome given the Prince of Wales
The Butte inter mountain., 1902-03-01

a generation ago. 1t might be added
that 1t is no more "fulsome" than that
accorded several other distinguished and
representative foreign visitors, like
Kossuth, or Charles Dickens-in fact,
that II Is not fulsome at all.
1t would be interesting to learn just
what sort of a reception Colonel Wat
terson himself would arrange for Prince
Henry were he master of ceremonies
And then there were those "ovations"
to Mr.. Bryan when he was swinging
around the circle. Was that "adula-
tion" of the undemocratic sort which
Is unbecoming to the plain people? But
that. Mr.. Bryan might say. is a horse
Of another color.
