The Butte SUlIivans Did
Not Get the Seattle Fortune


S. a week as a crochet woman Then
she became a scrubwoman and made
less. OF late years she has picked homes
and rags.
John Sullivan. the cousin whose es-
tate she inherits, began life in the
same dirty slum where his fortune aft
forwards found the old woman. He
went as a sailor and was shipwrecked
on the coast of the estate of Wash
ington. He alone of all the crew was
saved alive. and for months he re-
GREETED that fact. In the hardships
he endured he lost several toes from
fostbites and he just managed to live
by killing small birds and animals.
Finally he came to own the land
upon which he was cast and eventually
he found himself as one Of the found
ers of Seattle and rich. When he died
his heirs could not be found. Some
lawyers, after months of tireless in
quiry, discovered two, the old woman
in the Cork slum. and a Door Dublin
artisan, Edward Corcoran.
Without much difficulty they secured
from THE two signatures to agreements
giving up half the fortune if their
claim We're established through the eff
forts OF the lawyers. IHel tne dlIOF-
neys went TO work and for six months
they labored on the case. They dug
through documents and traced the fam
lily Of the dead man back far enough
to esta blish their. claims. They even
had the graves of his father and moth
er opened to get the inscription on the
name plates Of the collins.
Finally they were successful and the
United States supreme court decided
that the two old people in Ireland were
the lawful heirs of the estate. Han
nah CaIIaghan became too greatly be-
wildered to know what had happened
to her. Corcoran Immediately began
a contest to have the agreement he
signed in favor of the lawyers set
aside and possession of all the es-
tate In this he has not been success
full and none Of his acquaintances hope
that he viii be-.

WORTHY OF THEIR HIRE.

The statistics printed by T h G o b e
yesterday, revealing a small increase in
the salaries of the public school teachers
Of Minnesota, are most gratifying SO
far as they go, but should go much far
Their in the same direction. The in
crease to be sure, is only from about
81 to 50 per month, but even that tri1ing
amount is a healthful sign. It proves
that the steady decline in the COM
pensation Of these most deserving public
servants. which has been going on for
years, has been arrested, let us hope
permanently. It is to be hoped with
equal fervor that the future will bring a
liberal increase in the always too
nay, a downright vicious-public policy
doles out to the Flooding educators.
And let the future be quick about it.
No one whose sense of justice has not
become blunted can contemplate the un-
fair treatment from which this class of
people suffers without the blood in his
veins reaching the boiling point. When
ever retrenchment is necessary the
teacher must be the mark -
Do we ever pause to consider what the
school teacher really is, what he really
does? His influence upon the moral as
well as mental evolution of the childish
nature is invariably wholesome and can
not be overestimated. In the school
room the pupil in many cases receives
the moral training denied him at home
by parental viciousness or neglect.
When he reaches maturity, if he be
not ungrateful, the name of some pa
tient, conscientious, tender hearted
teacher back in the dimming past cannot
be mentioned uncoupled with a blessing.
Great as may be the value of the
teachers efforts in the direction of i'm
parting the habits of intellectual disci-
pline, the value of his work in mold
ing embryonic good citizens-good men
and good women-is UNNECESSARILY
greater.

When the ordinary head of a family
comes to exercise his voting priv
ilege next Tuesday, it may be that his
partisanship will blind him to his duty
as citizen. But he cannot, or at
least, he ought not, close his eyes en-
trely to the facts of the situation.
Today the city is in the control of a
local administration which adequately
protects person and property. There are
no scandals attending it's management
of affairs. Needed public improvements
have been made or are in progress. The
sanitary welfare of the community is
safeguarded. The moral sensibilities Of
the people are respected.
There are no gambling houses, no wine
rooms no evil resorts Haunting thei,.
crime in the public teeth The public
tmoroughfares are safe and cIeanly; the
rights and immunities of the citizens in
every direction, so far as the opposi-
ton has been able to show to the con-
trary, are in their full control.
There is no pretense whatever, soberIy
advanced, that there is either corrup-
ton or extravaganza in the civ admin
lstration in any department.
1t is not too much to say that no in
telligible reason has thus far been adj
Vanced, which is not either purely par
tisan or purely imaginary, why the peo-
pie should change from Robert A. Smith
to Frank B. Doran, as mayor.
There is, of course, some dema gogue
nonsense being shouted out about "the
gang"
Was there any gang in existence under
Mr.. Doran's administration? What was
the moral condition of the CITY under bia
administration?
In answer to these two questions, T h c
G invokes the testimony of a lead
ing Christian clergyman Rev. Mr.. Cow
gill, of this city, given in his pulpit In
the First NJ. E. church, on Sunday.
March 6, 1896, while Mr.. Doran was
mayor
On that occasion Mr.. Cowgirl said:
Our attention has been called to GER
tain places in which there is a combina-
ton OF the liquor traffic. the social evil
and the VileSt theatrical performances
We are credibly informed that the per-
1ormances here witnessed from night to

IT rs THE BEGINNING.

A few days ago the interior depart
ment issued an order Withdrawing from
settlement 100000 acres Of government
land in Northwestern Montana, in what
is known as the st. Mary's lake region
1t is supposed the withdrawal was for
the purpose Of selecting site for great
reservoir and irrigation system
Should it prove that the withdrawal
was for the purpose mentioned it will
mark an important beginning in the mat
ter of retaining the vast arid belt bv
irrigation under government control to
a certain extent. The lands~ withdrawn
are in the northwestern part of Mon
tana, and are tributary to st. Paul.
Hence the event has a decided local in
terest. The land is fertile and with an
abundance of water at the needed time
assured will be readily settled up and
made productive.
The necessity of government agency
in the irrigation Of the arid belt arises
from the fact that the streams furnish
ing the water have their courses through
more than one state, and the inhabitants
of all these interested states have rights
in the matter which could not be safe
guarded in any other manner. And. fur
thermore, government restriction is nee
essary to prevent the great stock com
panies from getting hold Of the land
which should be reserved for actual set
tiers.
irrigation that does not promote actu-
al settlement is worth little to the coun-
try at large. Irrigation that will provide
homes for millions of settlers is to be
encouraged, no matter what the orig
inal cost. One million acres Of arid
land in the st. Mary's lake region. re-
claimed and made productive, will add
immensely to the aggregate wealth Of
the nation, and the addition will increase
year by year.
There are those now living who win see
every available acre of United States
territory occupied and who will hear
the cry of more room needed" Anoth-
er century of increase in population in
ratio like that of the last will find a
crowded condition as intense as in MANY
of the more thickly settled European
countries Irrigation must be employ
ed to provide homes long before this
congestion arises, and as the develop
ment of systems must be slow, it is time
an energetic beginning was made.

by the conversation of those within, the
features of the landscape and cityscape
of supposed interest.
Immense popularity has come prompt
~ for the innovation. A ride of an
hour or two around the city enables the
passengers-generally sightseers from the
country or other towns-to get good
look at the exterior features, and the
announcer tells them something of the
points of historical or artistic interest
In Boston it is asserted that so popular
has the feature become that the residents
OF the city are making use of it to get
familiar with their own town, and that
the stranger stands no show to get
ride in the car; for in Boston, as in every
other city, thousands born and reared
near by historic spots have never seen

in the worlds progress If the observa-
ton car, with megaphone equipment,
serves no other purpose, its coming will
have been the agency Of a great good.

Detroit and Boston, and perhaps Other

trcduced observation cars provided with

are designed for the use of Sightseeing
parties. They are more ornate in con-
struction than the ordinary street car,
with large windows, or entirely open for
summer use. Visiting parties DESTROYS of
seeing the town in as brief time as
possible arrange for the car, which is
hauled about the principal streets of the
city.
But the announcer" is where the great
step in advance comes in. He is a man
well informed as to the interesting points
of the city. Located in one end of the
car, provided with megaphene of i'm
mense lung power, he announces to the
passengers in voice not to be drowneu
