DEATH or MAeENI.

1t is difficult to realize that the open
ing of the Spanish war is now five
years old, and that the beginning Of
our war of conquest against the Fill
pinOs was an event of more than four
years ago. We are getting thorough
ly accustomed to the new ideas and
new relations which at that time seem
ed so so strong, and many matters of
fact about which most Of us had but
hazy notions have become more or
less familiar. Among these is the fact
that while there are savage and half
civilized tribes in the population Of
the Philippine Islands, there a very
large clement that represents a high
standard of civilization and aspiration,
and that the Filipino insurrectionary
government was largely constituted by
this element The abIcst member of
that government died at Manila last
week, and the United States thus
takes part for the first time in a phe-
nomenon which, for generations, We
have been in the habit of considering
as belonging to policies OF conquest
ana subjugation from which the great
republic of the New World was free.
Mabini was a statesman and leader of
great ability, and of indomitable will,
who, though in broken health, devoted
both his fortune and his energy to the
Filipino struggle for independence
first against Spain and afterwards the
United States. He spent the last
-four years of his either as prisoner
of war, or prisoner released on parol,
or a political exile, deported to the
island Of Gaum by the United States
authorities.
In approaching death in exile star
ring him in the face, he finally con
scented to die in his native land. 1t
takes good deal of commerce to
compensate, in the eyes of old fash
toned Americans, for the habituation
to the idea OF this kind of thing as
n necessary incident of colonial
rule. FI4f

Little nine-year-old Rachel, whose
failing it was to get stories somewhat
twisted. once heard the conundrum OF
the rat and the thirty ears Of corn. 1t
ran thus: There were thirty ears of
corn in a bin and a rat came along
and carried away three ears every
night. How long did it. take him to
carry away the thirty ears? The ar
swer, Of course, was thirty nights,
counting the rats two ears and one ear
of corn
Rachel thought this wonderfully
good joke and fastened to tell her old
er brother, whom she well knew al
ways appreciated anything along the
line of.a good joke Rushing up TO him
she said: ooh. Newman, I've cot the
best conundrum you ever heard. See il
you can guess it." And thus she went
on: 'Tbere was a bag Of potatoes in a
bin and rat came along and carried
away three potatoes every night. How
long did it take him to carry away the
whole bag?"

REPAIR THE ROADS.

The awful condition of the public
roads of Glynn county was told of in
the local columns of the News yes
terday and those who are in posi-
ton to Know state that the paper did
not tell half. The situation is even
worse than our report stated.
Here is where that one stitch in
time will save the two thirds of a
dozen and no time should be lost
The roads were not in such excel
lent shape before but now since the
heavey rains. The situation is really
serious.
The farmers of this county are just
getting in sood shape and now let
us not handicap them with roads that
they cannot use.
Now is the time to repair them.

DON'T THREATEN.

When you want an item withheld
from the columns of paper don't go
to the office with threats.
This kind of Stiffness only makes
matters worse and makes the publ
cation of the item you want kept out
all the more certain to 90 in.
Come at the newspaper people with
different proposition. Tell them Of
the harm the publication of an item
would do you-BUT DO NOT SAY
THERE WILL BE TROUBLE IF THE
ITEM IS PRINTED because that GER
lainly means that the item is going
in and under the boldeat headlines in
the Office.
The News knows that there are it.
ems which are better left out but
this is a matter entirely with the
management and not with those who
are interested in the publication. For
this reason, if no other, the matter
should be left in the hand of the news
paper man.
Eut never threaten to move the
Office and whip the inmates. 1t is
a bad plan and insures publication
as certain as the sun rises.

SHIP SUBSIDIES ABROAD.

Naturally the owners OF foreign ship
lines are opposed TO American government
encouragement Of home companies i'll
competition with them. But American
opponents OF government subsidies are un-
wise who quote these foreign ship owners
in evidence OF the claim that the subsidy
policy is a mistaken one.
Recently Herr Albert Ballin, director Of
the Hamburg American line, was quoted
by a New York paper in criticism OF the
British government on account OF its
lavish aid to the Cunard company. In re-
ply, Senator Frye addressed letter to the
newspaper wherein he showed by the Off
eial reports OF our consul general at Berlin
that the German lines owe their existence
as well as their prosperity TO government
aid direct as well as indirect. And Herr
Balln's line is shown to be among the
chief benefcaries Of the policy.
As reminder that something more than
national pride, or even commercial gain,
is involved in the ownership Of vessel
property engaged in the carrying trade OF
country Senator Frye presents Herr
Ballin with this parting shot:
There are those in this country who
have not yet forgotten that in 1893. when
the swift American liners were being
armed and hurried to sea to scout along
our coasts AMI defend our trade. Herr
Balin aud his fellow Germans took some
Of their best ships out Of the New York
service and sold them to Spain to burn,
sink and destroy" the commerce OF the
American people. One of these German
vessels il mistake not, formed part of
the fleet which Admiral Camara led to
Sucz in an attempts to strike Admiral
Dewey at Manila"
Subsidy is an unpopular word among
taxpayers OF any country, but along
reasonable lines and honestly expended it
amounts to nothing more nor less than
protection to home interests. The United
States has progressed sufficiently in devo-
ton to this policy to demonstrate its eff
cheney and value, and has accumulated
enough through protection TO trade on
land so that ii can afford the experiment
| Of extending ts business OH sea by similar
| encouragement.

JUDGES AND POLITICS.

The Plainsman weekly paper which
manifests devotion to the interests Of the
United Court and Copper corporation in
many ways, asserts that the enactment OF
the fair trial laws has created a situation
where the contest between litgants now
resolves into the question OF which cor
poration shall elect their judges and
that the bad effect OF these measures will
be Witnessed in the struggle at the polls"
Such statements are almost exactly OPP
posiie TO the plain truth. II the fair trial
laws have any influence upon political
campaigns in which judges are elected it
will naturally be in the direction OF dis
couraging corporation effort to control
them. With these laws in operation, it
will be impossible for the United Court
and Copper company, or any other COM
pauy, to control litigation ana direct de-
cisions in It's favor by securing the cleo
ton OF its candidates for the bench in
any one or two districts. Under these
laws it will not be possible to begin an
action before an unfit or biased judge,
force the issue to trial before that judge,
deny the right Of jury and evade review
OF the facts By the supreme court-in
short and in fact to coniiscatc valuable
property or rights by the dictum OF one
unworthy agent Of justice, without re-
course by the injured party, as has been
attempted by the Hcinze and Mactiinniss
clique through subserviency Of the judicial
power in Silver Bow county. 70 accom-
plish such purpose under existing laws
il would serpractically necessary for bust
ness adyenturcrs, corporate or individual,
to control all OF the judges and all OF
tie courts in the state-something mani
festly impossible for any interest or COM
bination OF interests to do. In fact, these
laws deprive corporations OF incentive to
participation in the campaign OF any par
tcuar candidate for the bench by de-
priying biased or dishonest judges OF the
power to assume exclusive jurisdiction in
the actions brought by any corporation
or litgant. They are designed to insure
to every litigant his right to a fair and
impartial trial Of his cause in the lower
court and the right OF review by the
higher court to protect him against in
justice or error. They are in harmony
with the bill OF rights, the constitutional
guarantee. They should have been in
force long ago, and Montana would have
been saved much in reputation, much in
industrial prosperity and much in un-
necessary and eXtravagant court expenses
as an inevitable result.
To say, as the Plainsman does, that
laws which are general in their application
and specific in their purpose to secure
equal and honest justice to every interest
will result in scandalous contest between
corporations to determine which one oil
them shall elect all of the judges in the
state is to impcach the integrity OF al
the judges and OF the majority OF all tht
citizens within the state at once. And i
is done upon the unsupported contention
OF the Heinze clique, whose notorious
abuse of judicial authority has Furnished
the sufficient and conclusive argument, tt
prove the necessity OF the laws thus mis-
interpreted

LIMIT OF GEN. WOODS PROMOTION

President Roosevelt, according to re-
ports from Washington has given certain
senators assurance that in case General
Wood is confirmed as major general he will
not appoint that officer lieutenant general
and senior officer of the army Oh the re-
tirement Of General Chaifee. The fear had
been expressed in some quarters that it
was the intention Of the president in case
Wood is confirmed as major general, to
force that officer in the very near future
TO the top OF the list by making him lieu
tenant general thus blocking the way to
high promotion for many distinguished and
able officers
These assurances il given by the presi-
dent are. no more than fair. Despite Cen
era Woods abilities and soldierly quail
ties, it would be unjust TO make him, at an
early age, lieutenant general of the army,
with many an equally able and distin-
guishcd officer below him and blocked from
further advancement. In fact the chief
objection to the confirmation OF Wood as
major general was based on the assumption
that the president was to do the very thing
that it is now declared he does not intend
TO do.
In some Of the comment that has ap-
peared in the newspapers in regard to this
prevailing but mistaken idea, it has been
stated that the president proposed to ap-
point General Wood to the command OF
the army Under the army bill of last
winter the senior officer of the army no
longer is its actual commander. The last
