Harvey Houchins of Ceredo, was
instantly killed Monday morning by
the yard engine at Kenova. The
wrecking crew was cleaning up the
yard and Mr.. Houchins, it seems
took the place of another man on
the yard and was struck by the

slightly deaf. He was an honest,
hardworklng man and a good citizen.
His age was about 81 years. In
point of service he was the Oldest

FURNISHES AN ISSUE.

The o%bscurity which has hitherto
attached to the name OF Adam Van
Wagenen will probably soon give way
to even a greater degree of %notoriety,
exc possibly also fame, unless the
democratic party is totally %ungrateful
and absolutely without regard for
those who would help it out of the
slough OF despair in which it has been
finding itself for the last few years.
Mr.. Van Wagenen lives at Sioux City,
a town as most people hereabouts
know, in Iowa. He was one of the
speakers at the banquet held at a
n~eighboring town on st. Jackson day.
In response to the toast Glass Legis-
lation as a Privilege" he said that
what the democratic party needed in
the next national campaign was an
issue, and furthermore one so sim
pie that it will involve no constitu-
tional amendments; SO o~vershadow-
ing that all other questions will be
eclipsed by it" and then offered it
Internationally, absolutely free OF
charge and without any copyright
reservations government ownership
of railroads. One Iowa idea" having
become more or less popular with D
large contingent of the republican par
ty, it remains to be seen whether a
second will assume the same degree
of popularity with the other party.

be, when the legislature gets through

political methods employed in that
county occasionally.
The fight is one that does not con
Germ the republicans, except to the
extent of the interest they have in
seeing that justice and right prevail
and that the men who appear t. have
been honestly elected are seated.
Both the contestants and %contestees
are democrats and both claim to have
been the choice of a majority of the
people of their county. On behalf
Of the contestants the charge is made
that they were counted out, a we'll
known and ~favorite way of democrats

SENATOR CLARk'S PALACE.
Described as Pocket Edition Of the
World.

Those who roll out Fifth avenue
as far as Seventy-seventh street on
the padded cushions of their automo-
biles, as we'll as those who are junk
eted on the top of the quaint but ever
popular old Fifth avenue stage, now
look with renewed interest at Sena-
tor Clark's great white palace, which
may ultimately become the home OF
the bi%llion-dollar baby for which a
mother gave her life, says a New
York letter. This palace-for it AN
not be called a house-is a pocket
edition of the world. From garnet
to cellar it contains every variety,
every beauty, every convenience, ev-
cry luxury and every sensation that
the heart could desire. 1t is so COM
plete that Senator Clark might shut
himself up within it's walls and never
come out, yet lead a normal, active
and even exciting life.
The house contains three separate
dwellings, each complete as to draw
ing rooms, bed rooms, libraries, din
ing rooms and even private root gar
dens; great art galleries, a sculpture
hall, a music room twice the size OF
the ordinary ball room, a grand salon
of the size and style OF a french
throne room, a conservatory, an ob-
%servatory, a theater complete in ev-
cry detail, and old Roman bath IN
pink marble, a Turkish bath, a swim
ming pool, a gymnasium, a billiard
room, an automobile room, two run
ming fountains, both the works OF
famous sculptors; a great panquel
hall, an elevator, furnished, llghted
and hung like an ordinary drawing
room; an electric light plant, a colo
storage room for furs, a grand marble
stairway like those of n french
court, a secret passage with a secret
stairway winding down to a secret
door and hundreds of other
and mehicva. wonders

officers were beaten likewise. But
this is a matter that does not concern
the legislature.
What promises to make the in
quiry more extended and far reach
ing than such matters usually are is
the fact that up 20 the present the
! contestces have the Better of the argu-
ment through their ability to secure
refusal on the part of those whose
duty it is to carry out the provisions
OF the law to do that which the law
says they shall do. Being on the same
side of the fence as the contestees,
the clerk of the district court of Sill
with that part of the statutes which
provides that in the case of a legisla-
tive contest it shall be the duty of
that officer to appoint two justices of
the peace to take the testimony in
the case and who shall submit it to
the legislature for it's consideration,
as has been done in the ase of the
Rosebud county contest. This left
the contestants without other re-
course than to permit the matter to
go before the legislature in its initia-
tory stage; hence that body instead
of merely reading the testimony will
be compelled to hear it from the wit
nesses direct. This will entail the
expenditure of much time and also a
great deal of labor that would have
been avoided had the clerk of the
court done his duty. Knowing the
way democrats have in cases of that
sort it is very likely that already the
people have prepared themselves for
weeks of filibustering, springing Of
t~echnicalities and the employment of
other methods for killing time and
causing unreasonable delays.
Much as the whole matter is to be
deplored, it may after all be not with
out it's compensaLing amount of good.
The chances are that much will be
brought out that would have eve
been known had the testimony been
taken as the law directs and that be-
fore it is finished the inquiry may
have extended far enough to go back
a little and make clear some other
things that have happened in "old Sill
yer Bow during recent years. But
the people will be edited and news
from Helena will be eagerly sought
in hearing.

which the convicts would be compell-
ed to contribute to their own main
tenance. There are various occupa-
tons at which they could be employ
ed in which they would not come into
competition with honest labor and the
sentiment which is responsible for the
present law would not be offended.
The penitentiary is annually becom-
ing a greater source of expense to
the state and the time must surely
come when there will have to be a
change. The people will eventually
grow tired of keeping in idleness hum
dreds of law breakers and criminals
of all kinds and the present farce
of ~condemning to hard labor" all the
fellows sent to prison will have to
give way to reality and they will be
forced to do something toward o n
tributing to their own support.

FRIDAY, JANUARY is, 1903
PUSHING HIS FAD.

Having failed to receive an endorse
ment from the legislative committee
of the state teachers association, the
superintendent of public instruction
is now trying to secure in another
way influence that he hopes will be
weighty when he makes his move on
the legislature for a law consolidating
rural schools. He has sent a circular
letter to the different county superin-
tendents asking them for an express
sion of opinion.
While The Gazette will not under
take to speak for the superintendent,
it is satisfied that the expressions
Mr.. Welch will receive should con-
vince him that he is pretty much
alone on the position assumed by him.
Whatever arguments may be advanc-
ed in favor of the proposed consolida-
ton in other states is not applicable
SO far as Montana is concerned. The
state is too sparcely settled and chill
dren are too few and live at distances
too great to make the scheme FEAST
BILE. Even with the present number of
schools it is almost impossible for
some children to attend because of
the distance they have to travel, and
to still further reduce the schools and
consequently make a proportionate
increase in the distance some chill
dren would be compelled to go would
be unreasonable and unjust. Regard
less of the success that may have fol-
lowed adoption of the method else
where. it cannot be said that the time
has arrived when Montana may do
as Mr.. Welch asks it to do. In fact
it. is doubtful whether the time will
ever arrive when it will be found prac-
ticable because in many counties pop
ulation will probably always remain
sparse and widely separated.

Baltimore American: Some of the

will be defeated by this intrusion of
the strenuous upon the hygienic in
dolence of cean passenger life and
Still, it seems useless to try to get
rid of the modern strenuousity of
life, for, like wireless telegraphy, it
is in the air.

ANOTHER LIE NAILED.

Indianapolis Journal: Not more
than our years ago a cry was raised
that the tinplate trust had not only
put up the price to an outrageous
figure, but had control of all the fac
tories manufacturing the machinery
for it's production. Somehow a num-
Der of capitalists have hot machin-
cry and are making large quantities
of plate, the price of which they have
cut to $3.50 a box-a lower price than
was paid during the years when an
English monopoly supplied the Amer
lean market.

HAS HARD L
Manifests to Bill Openinu
Crow Reservation.

The opening of the northern. part of
the Grow Indian reservation to set
Element. as proposed by a bill which
has been before congress the past
three years, finds a great deal more
opposition than was encountered by
a similar measure To- years ago when
the people of this section set about
to secure cession of the western part
of the reservation.
For the opening of certain lands
for settlement 10 years ago very little
display was made and the people Sc.
lected n man 10 go to Washington
to present their claims to the repre-
s~entatives of the state in congress
and interest such other members Of
that body with whom a hearing
could be secured. That gentleman
was Fred H. Foster and the hundreds
of settlers located within the coded
strip to this day owe Mr.. Foster a
debt of gratitude.
The people of this particular part
of Montana have been literally sup
piled with promises in the past three
years of speedy action in the mat
ter of opening to homeseekers the
northern part of the Crow reserva-
ton. Those promises did not come in
very large punches from the Mon
tana delegation in congress, but from
those who openly boasted that they
knew exactly what congress would
do and that favorable action on the
would be secured just as
soon as the bill could be taken out Of
the Indian committee of the house
of representatives. The delay of a
few months has been extended into
