A Backset for Imperialism

The Alaska boundary decision has
just about disposed of the Canadian
branch of the British Empire league.
The main argument, Of this league in
Canada has been that the colony must
do its best to strengthen the British
empire because Of the powerful back
ing the mother country can give the
colony.
From the Canadian point Of view,
the boundary decision was little more
than a put-up job for England to meet
the demands of the United States in
the most graceful manner. In the
words of the Toronto Star, ''All that a
foreign nation claimed from us has
been taken from us; Everybody knew
that it would surely be taken from us
ii the republic persisted in demanding
it, just as surely as If the Dominion
were a young orphan nation at the
mercy Of the world
The Star can't see where the pow
erful backing" came in and adds:
For u month or two the British Empire
league should tactfully refrain from
dwelling too much on the backing we get
and the consequence that attaches to US
because of the power of the British navy.
In the Alaska boundary case the Canadian
navy which does not exist was just as
much use to us as the British navy
which does exist.

AS full Of meat as a German cherry, as

he has ever done-and that is saying a
good deal--is Waly Wanderoon, and His
Story Telling Machine, by Joel Chandler

Drusilla and Billy Biscuit are with us
again and with the addition Of Wally
Wanderoon himself and his wonderful
story telling machine, they manage to
furnish stories to suit all tastes. From
the moment that Wally greetS the chill
dren with his three howdies and a half
and the announcement that his numerous
pokings about in the bushes are in search
of 'the Good Old Times" that everybody
wants events march swiftly along to the
end. Events, too with just the twist that
nave made "Uncle Remus" a favorite with
young and old. What more could be ex-

everything is down hill, no matter where
One looks and where people have to walk
sideways in order to keep upon level land?
The story telling machine is only a make

may say, because he is one of the old

The Fidgety Metal.

Colonel Bryan fatty denies that he
told Professor Bradshaw of Iowa that
he had dropped the silver issue as a
body of death, and was content with
the nearly general adoption of the
gold standard. The professor declares
that he did have the talk. with Bryan
on a railway train and that he quoted
him correctly. The two will have to
settle this question Of Vefacity be-
tween themselves. 1t would seem I'M
like Bryan to call free silver a dead
joying rise in value and the bar sill
yer quotation is s61A cents an ounce.
It has been the custom Of the silver
men to say when silver takes an up
ward start in it's many fluctuations,
There, l told you sou and they talk
as If all their predictions of very ac-
tive demand for silver were about to
be realized: Silver, however, has failed
to show the stability fitting for. a trust
worthy money standard. Last year the
metal declined overa25 per cent in
value, touching the lowest point it has
reached in the worlds history. In
April the market rallied to So cents,
as compared with ATM cents an ounce
Dec. 1, 1902. A few days ago bar
silver was quoted at 62.23 cents an
ounce; but the slight decline since
suggests that those who believe the
rise will be resumed steadily are
doubtless@a little off in their reckon
ing. If silver reaches 64.1 cents an
ounce the Philippine peso will have
it's face value and, if the market price
advances the bullion value of the
metal in the peso will be greater than
it's face value and heretofore the effect
of such conditions has been to lead to
the melting down and withdrawal
from circulation of such coins. In or
ganizing the Philippine coinage sys-
tenn margin of Is cents was pro-
vided in view of a possible. rise in sill
yer. A few days ago the silver mar
ket rose to Within-~1.S7 cents of the
face value of the peso. { -
One effect of a considerable ad-
increase the production of silver at
the mines and an inevitable result of
a strong squirt Of activity in this direc-
ton will be drop in. the silver mar
ket. p" ..ssecs - ''%':s:
At present the government has
stopped the purchase Of silver bullion
for the Philippine coinage on account
of the higher price, after turning out
about 10000 900 to 100000 Of the
100000 pesos authorized.
Mr.. Conant, who planned the Phil
ippine coinage system Of silver pesos
Of half a dollar each upon the, gold
basis, not long ago expressed the be-
lief that silver bullion would not adj
vance to 6i.1 cents an ounce, at which
price the peso would have face value.
It Is possible he will find himself mis-
taken. III TH& 140Tr3.r r- oEg@ sgz. =

Montana: An Object Lesson.

By the closing of the Amalgamated
Mining, company's Montana mines and
allied industries some 20, men have
been thrown out of work in the Butte
district and the whole state is threat
ened with a grave business depression.
Montana has for years been suf-
ferer from too much of one or two
corporations and persons. To-day she
is suffering in the pocketbook; for
years she has suffered in morals for
the same reason. - ::
It is easy now for the outsider to
understand the political corruption of
Montana politics. D., If one corporation
is so influential in the business of the
state that it can PROSTATE it's business
by stopping operations, it is not hard
to understand how great may be it's
power over politics, where there is a
close connection between politics and
business. And in Montana there has
been a close connection. =
AS mere incidents to the successful
management of business enterprises
corporations have, gone into politics
in Montana to such an extent that
they were the real political organiza-
tons. Legislatures have been cor
rupted and courts have been manip-
ulated. .,rs
If there is any need of an object les
son to show to all men that it is pos
sible for corporations to grow so great
as to be a source of danger to-the state
it can be found in the plight of Mon
tana. 1t is a waste of breath to deny
that a power that controls the business
life of a state cannot and will not con-
troll the politics of the state. -.

The attempt to elevate Attorney Cen

If he should combine with others of the

= Why This Haste?

The city Of Minneapolis began the
publication Oct. 20 of an ADVERTISE
ment for bids on furnishing and in
stalling a new system Of bookkeeping.
It is specified that this new system
shall apply to all departments, includ-
ing the school board, park board,
library board, etc., and provide for the
checking up Of accounts between the
city and the county.
There has been some talk about the
defects in our municipal bookkeeping
and the desirability Of having it over.
hauled and, perhaps, a new system in,
stalled, and this movement is undoubt-
edlys wise in purpose, but it strikes
T he j our n a l as very curious
thing that the city should commence
the publication Of an advertisement
for bids on the goth Of October and
specify that they will be received only
until the goth. That is to say, only
nine days at the outside are allowed
for bidders to examine the require
ments of the case, study the charter
and the ordinances, familiarize them
selves with the very complicated sys-
tenn Of accounts necessary between the
county and the city, including not only
the business of the city council but
that of the separate boards.
Presumably this is a proposition for
consideration by experts. Experts
capable of installing satisfactory
: system are not to be found at every

desired from Chicago, st. Louis, New
York and Boston, where one would
expect to find the most skilful and ex-

this advertisement, leave any work
which he may have at hand, come to
Minneapolis, famiIiarize himself with
the requirements Of the case, study our
charter and ordinances and special
laws relating to the several boards,
and put in a bid on installing a new
system Of such vast and complicated
nature and do it in nine days is more
than a layman like he Jour q
