EDITOR NATIONAL TRIBUNE: In the

it was claimed that the efficiency and
heroism of the 1OO-days men contributed
largely to the saving of Washington City
when it was threatened by the Confed-
crates under Gen. Early

Divorce In Japan.

A traveller recently returned from
Japan tells of some of the queer laws
in that country concerning divorce:
"A divorce on the part of the husband
is easily obtained. One of the legal
causes of divorce is if the husband
find the wife too loquacious. Yet in
all my long experience in Japan l have
met only one man who discarded his
wife, and l never met with family
where disSenSion existed. nor have l
ever heard of husband treating his
wife with severity. although the same
cannot be said of some parents-in-law.
who consider their sons wife mere
chattel. AS Il general rule. the appear
ance of girls and women testities of Il
lightness of heart not always found in
other climeS where their sisters have
more abundant means of happiness"

THE GRADUATES.

The second annual commencement
of the county high school will be
held at the opera house this evening,
when ten young graduates will bid
adieu to thu school room for the more
serious affairs of life. The girl gradu-
ates outnumbar the boys, but not as
much as usual. there being four boys
and six girls. or, more properly speak
ing, four young gentlemen and six
young ladies': but we may be par
doned, for still calling them boys and
girls, for it seems but yesterday that
they were nttle tots, and how many
of us would be glad of the title which
they for a brief time will despise. 1t
is to be regretted that more boys do
not complete the school course, not
alone because of the advantage to
be gained through the additional
learning. but because they who fin
ish the course are possessed of stay
ing qualities that are invaluable in
the ordinary affairs of life.
The class motto is a good one: by
our efforts we hope to win" It is
good because of the sentiment con-
tanned and because it expresses so
aptly the dominant characteristic of
the young graduate. for hope is at
high tide in the breast of the boy or
girl just leaving school, and while a
good deal of fun is poked at the buoy
ant spirit and confident bearing of
the youngsters, what would we not
give to see once more the rosy tinge
that is lent to life 5 hardest tasks by
hopes young eyes.
This years class is most credit
able one and the Bee joins in wish
ing them the fulfllment of their
fOndaSt hopes.

AN ERROR OF JUDGMENT.

An effort is being made by the gov
ernment to collect an annual tax
from the Flathead Indians of 81 per
head for all stock grazing upon the
reservation. Up to date not dollar
of the tax has been paid, and when
Agent Smead recently attempted to
seize some of the stock he. and his
men We're ordered off by the owners
of the stock, the order being empha-
sized by loaded guns. Mr.. Smead
seems to have considered discretion
the better part of valor. for he with
drew without any argument. Under
the circumstances the effort to col
lect such a tax seems to be gross
piece of stupidity. The Indians have
always been recognized by the gov
eminent as the owners of the land
upon which they live. and while they
do not hold the land in severalty.
they are none the less the owners
for the government has recognized
their title in many ways. Whenever
any land has been thrown open to set
thment it has first been purchased by
lue government lIOIn lUt 1HuldIS. III
view of these facts. it is difficult to
understand by what right the gov
eminent proposes to tax the Indians
for grazing stock upon their own
lands. A delegation of Indians re-
Gently went to Washington in an eff
fort to have the tax abolished, but
their efforts We're in vain, as the COM
missioner of Indian affairs turned a
deaf ear to their request. With the
average Indian a loaded Winchester
is much more effective as an argu-
ment than mere words. and the Flat
head Indians seem to be aware of
that fact. Either the policy pursued
by the government toward the In
dians in the past has been all wrong
or else the government has no right
to impose a tax upon them for the
privilege of grazing stock upon the
reservation.

WITHOUT FEAR OR FAVOR.

Joseph W. Folk, district attorney
of st. Louis, has declined to accept
$4,000 home which a committee
of citizens rendered him as a +esti-
mOnial of their appreciation of his
services in running to earth the
boodlers and corruptionists who have
so long disgraced the city of ST.
Louis and the state of Missouri In
refusing the proffered gift, Mr. FOlK
has taken the right course for no Of
fetal should accept any reward for
doing his duty. Mr. Folk was elect
ed as a democrat in 1900. anu he has
prosecuted both republican and demo
cratic boodlers with absolute i'm
Partially. He prosecuted and con
victed the democratic boss, who had
ruled st. Louis for more than twenty
years. The millionaire boss was sen
fenced to serve three years in the
penitentiary, and while Nh Folk has
earned the gratitude of the general
public, he has incurred the enmity
of the leading politicians of st. Louis
and it is freely predicted that he
can never receive another nomina-
ton of any kind from a political con
vention in st. Louis, and the predic-
ton is probably correct, for public
gratitude is short lived, and the con
ventlOns are usually ruled by the
politicians and not by the public
Aside from his work as district at
torney, Mr.. Folk has proven himself
to be a man of ability. In the great
street railway strike in ST. Louis, in
1900, he represented the strikers il
the arbitration of the differences be
tween the WOrkmCn and their EN-
plOyers, and his tact and judgment
did much TO settle the strike whcl
st. Louis was almost in state o.
civil war. Notwithstanding Mr.
Folks great ability and his undoubtet
courage, it is quite probable that he
will retire from public life at the eX
piration of his present term Of office
Mr. Folk made the mistake O
prosecuting the man in brOadclotl
with the same vgor as the man il
overalls, and while he has the salts
faction Of having done the RICH
thing, his services are soon forgotten
by the public, while the man in broad
cloth never forgets, but will follow
him until he is crushed. 1t would b,
infinitely better for the country i
more men Of Mr.. Folks type coulC
be kept in office, but that can neye
be until there is an elevation of tn,
standard of civic moralty-a raisn,
of the ideals of the public Even if Mr.
Folk is retired, however, his worl
will be pointed to as an example 70
years to come.
