VICTIM OF DISSIPATION.
Joe lie Mott Insane Because Of Too
Much Whiskey.

Much Whiskey.
Last Saturday afternoon q lunacy
commission, composed of Chairman
Parker of the board. of county commits
sioners and Doctors Lindsey and Clark
convened in the Office of the clerk OF
the district court for the purpose OF
inquiring into the mental condition OF
Joseph LIE Mott, generally known as
"Frenchy." LIE Mott was arrested ear
her in the week and placed in the
city Jail. There he speedily developed
an assortment of Authorizations of the
most striking sort. He imagined he
had a ann loaded with solid shot
and a fuse as thick as a hawser to
touch it Off, and warned all to be pre-
pared for the explosion. Another OF
his imaginings vas that some one was
trying to carry off the beding in his
cell and he waged a constant struggle
with his tormentor.
After hearing the testimony of sew
teral witnesses and examining the man
personally, the commission declared
him to be a fit subject for the asylum
and his commitment was ordered.
LIE Mott has been about the city a
number of years and during that time
has eked out a ~precarious' existence
by running errands, doing chores
about saloons and other resorts. Ev-
cry cent he earned has gone for drink,
he contenting himself with wearing
such clothing as vas given him and
eating wherever he could. Both men
tally and physically he is a wreck and
it is believed that the treatment he
will receive will restore him to a nor
NAL condition. All of the unfortunate
fellows relatives reside in Canada.

Whatever socialism may have to
commend it in the minds OF those
who subscribe to it's tenets as taught
in foreign lands, Germany, for in
stance, where the cult had it's origin
among dreamers and philosophers OF
a certain school, as advocated by it's
radical opponents in this country it
is only another name for anarchy, for
license: Socialists of the American
type have only contempt for all laws
and for all things that make for law
and order. Once i%noculated with So
cialism and men lose respect for the
rights OF others and ride rough Shod
over every consideration of courtesy,
decency and freedom OF thought and
action in others. They insist that all
shall do and think as they think.
Those who refuse to become subscri-
bers to the doctrines they teach are
denounced as robbers, tyrants and en-
emies of the human race. In their
sight the acquisition of property and
the amassing OF a competency through
honest effort and toll are things to be
regarded as wrong and the robbery
of those less fortunate.
Shining examples of what socialism
does for those who are taken by its
pernicious teachings are Dan McDon-
aid and Edward Boyce. When they
were but humble workers in the ranks
of the toliers they were regarded as
fair minded, liberal men, courteous in
debate and tolerant OF the ideas OF
others. Using their native shrewd-
ness and taking advantage of a glib
ness of tongue with which natur en-
dowed them, they gradually worked
their way upward until they were
chosen by their fellow toilers to posi-
tions of leaders. Not content. with
merely leading their followers along
the usual paths and seeking to gain
advantages for those for whom they
spoke in the ordinary ways, they en-
braced socialism and at one became
changed men. They arrayed them
selves against all who, either by
thrift or a change of fortune found
themselves in bettered circumstances,
and became demagoguse of the bla-
tant, dangerous sort. Accepted 0
ditions and time honored customs in
their eyes all suddenly became wrong
and they essayed the role OF saviors
Of those whom they are pleased to call
the oppressed, simply because they are
compelled to gain a livelihood by hon
orable labor and manly toll. Property
Dwners are denounced by them as rob-
bers and the man who by the employ

FIRM
BEST BIDDER
PROVISIONAL AWARD OF couR.
HOUSE CONTRACT.
NOT YET FORMALLY SIGNED
Commissioners Will Meet Again Next
Week, When Matter Will
be Closed.

~ While in effect the contract for the
new court house and Jail that Yellow
stone county intends to build has been
let to S~hackelton & Whiteway OF
Butte, the necessary articles have not
yet been signed, and it may be said
that the award is provisional.
This is about all that can be said as
a result Of the deliberations in execu-
tive session of the county commissions
ers Saturday, a session that continued
five or six hours.
Nothing as to the ngures is known,
except that the commissioners said
they were within the sum at their
command, $4,000.
The successful firm was not repre-
sented at the meeting OF Saturday and
until a conference with its members
Or some one authorized to act for them
shall have been held nothing more will
be made public by the board. Incl
dentally, however, it has been learned
that the award, as previously stated,
has been made subject to certain modi-
fications, which it is felt can be &C.
complished without hitch, and while
not yet formally entered into, the con
tract has, to all intents and purposes,
been let.
Next Monday the board will meet
again and on the following day the
matter of finally closing the contract
will come up. On that day the sue
cessful bidders have been notified to
have a representative present. Until
then the commissioners do not regard
it as advisable to make any of the pro-
ceedings public, believing that the
county's interests can best he served
by maintaining secresy.

SO deep that they will have to cllml

But the inconsistency of it all! Nc
Donald, a man who knows no hardel
| toll than that Of waging a vituperative
tongue, whose wages do not come
from the accursed capitalistic class
but from the men who perform actual
labor; a man who is best described
by the expressive phrase, profession
al laboring man." The very intelli
gence that he damns in others has en-
albled him to separate himself from
the comon toilers, whose paid cham
pion he is. But to this he gives nc
thought and in the blindness OF his
hatred and the venom of his bitterness
fails to see how utterly inconsistent
he is and how completely he condemns
himself. Either ignorantly or wilfully
he declines to admit that he is no less
an advocate than the lawyer upon
whom he heaped his insults. He is
paid for his supposed services the
same as the man who pleads in a
court of law. and by all laws of rea-
son and recompense, should be with
those whom he declares shall be sunk
en- to depths so profound that hell will
be above them.
No matter what he may have been
a few years ago, Boyce now finds him
self with the capitalistic class he pro-
fesses to hate and loath. A lucky dis
coyery of a mine in Idaho quickly
transformed him from a wage Garner
to an employer of labor. Despite his
mouthings, nowhere is there a record
that he declined to accept the good
things that fortune brought to him,
and nowhere is it known or recorded
that since he came into the good thing
that has raised him above the neces-
sity of further manual toll, he has
made even a small division. of his
wealth among those who believe with
him in socialism. Taking his own
word for it that labor and capital can
never be on friendly footing, how does
he, as an honest man, reconcile him
self to his altered condition in life,
and how can he, still as an honest
man, mingle with those who are rep
resentative of the labor that he de-
clares is the creator of all wealth ?
He should be consistent and hasten
to divide with those about him all
above the wages he was accustomed
to draw while a miner. He would
then practice what he breaches.
Both Mcdonald and Boyce are dan
gerous men, and the fact that be-
cause OF unfortunate circumstances
they are placed where their infiamma-
tory and lawless teachings reach ears
often only too eager to receive them
makes them more of a menace to the
communities that harbor them. In his
refusal to toast the president Of the
United States because that official
has done the duty he has sworn to
perform, Boyce gave further evidence
of the RIGHTEOUSNESS OF the doctrine
he advocates and the danger of the
propaganda with which he has allied
himself.
