BE the city council, water superin-
tendent or the power company to
blame, the water system in Lewistown
is in an abomnable condition, and
it is incumbent upon the council to
locate the cause of the trouble and by
some means make correction. The
water pressure for months has been
unreiable-water one hour and none
the next. There was no pressure Sun
day, none on Monday, only a part of
Tuesday and none this morning. Pos
sbly the city council thinks extension
OF the water mains more necessary
than water. but we venture to suggest
that the present consumers are entit-
led TO what they are paying for-wa.
ter, not occasionally, but all the time.
Superintendent Stafford claims that
the pump has been abused by incom-
petent help at the power house and
It's present condition is directly due
to mismanagement of the power COM
pany. If another pump is necessary
the council had better buy one.
Whatever be the fault, relief is de.
manded. Aside from the consumers
rights, had fire started at any time
since Saturday night the whole town
could have burned up so far as any
protection from the water system is
concerned.

Some three or four weeks ago We
published an account Of the opera
tions of young man in Helena who
assumed to be nephew Of one of tho
firm of Bower Bros. OF this county.
For some reason the Helena papers
tailed to publish anything about the
escapadc Of this fellow until last
week. although he had worked his
graft" and departed from the capital
in July. 1t is strange indeed, that so
many of the citizens of Helena could
be worked to a finish when there is
telephone connection between the
Bower ranch and that city. We don't
like to accuse the people Of Helena
of being ycrdant, but some of them
ought TO visit the metropolis of the
Judith Basin and get a few pointers
on city life.

THE PRESIDENTS COURAGE

President Roosevelt continues to
live up TO his reputation as a man of
courage.
He has been president only two
years but during that time he has,
with admirable disregard of the prac-
teal politics aspects of the problems
that confront him, taken steps which,
though indisputably right, have risk
ed or incurred the enmlty of the pow
erful capitalistic class on the one
hand and the powerful labor unions
on the other.
There is no doubt that the presi-
dents course in the anthracite coal
miners strike and the vigorous en-
forcement OF the interstate commerce
and Sherman antitrust laws have
brought down on him rae wrath and
hostility. even If concealed, of that
portion OF our people who have more
money than patriotism and are incap
able OF taking national and general
view of any subject IN which theil
material interests are concerned.
The presidents more recent insist
cnce that employment in government
offices shall he directed by the civi
service and other official regulations

loss of the political support of organ

1t happened in Butte. 1t couldn't
happen anywhere else. II is probably
the only city in the union without
lawns or flower gardens. This is due
to the deadly smelter fumes which
destroy grass and all vegetation. But
up to last week there was one flower
garden in the city. 1t is no more.
The last rose of summer is gone, like
wise the pansics and the daisies. A

many, entered the yard Of Mr.. j. At.

Carter Harrison, mayor of Chicago,
was in Livingston last week en- route
to the Yellowstone park. He says
he is out OF politics and will not again
be candidate for mayor of the garden

his party next year. he said, among
other things: To my mind the prin'

Mr.. Harrison should have been more
specific. Which set of principles has
he reference to, those of Grover
Cleveland or w j. Bryan? There is
a great difference between the two

right to dispose of his labor as he
pleases. The union has a right to all
it can gain by peaceful methods and
nothing more. There is no hostility
to unions as such, but their affairs
must be conducted with wisdom and
prudence to gain the sympathy of the
community. The members are amen
able TO the same laws that control the
actions of all citizens.
Better that our high school building
should never be erected and that all
building operations suspend for the
season than yield to force and intimi-
dation. The very walls of our educa.
tional institution would stand out as
a perpetual monument of shame in.
stead of living witness of the handi.
work of free and enlightened peo-
