Butte Miners Bio Pay.

The miners at Butte, Anaconda and
Great Falls have been given notice of
an unexpected raise in wages that will
mean an addition of 100000 q month
70 Butte's payroll.
The notices posted at all the large
mines were to the effect that the
wages of all underground men would
te increased from $3.50 to 1915 day
and that all men receiving less than
% day would receive So a day after
November Is. when the changes go
into effect.
In each case the notices state: This
increase is made on account of the
satisfying condition of the worlds
metal markets. and it may be under
sOood that the increase will stand 80
long as the price of eIectrolytic cop
per remains over Is cents pound.
lhls new scale will affect about 10
VVo men in Butte. 1000 in Anaconda
and as many at Great Falls, and will
enable the miners to earn in II months
DIS much as they have heretofore
earned in year. The increase was
entirely voluntary on the part of the
companies. for the men had made no

Stand East

That was bright suggestion of
boy who made the following answer to
the question of passer-by. Seeing
the little fellow pattihg his fathers
horse, that was standing in front of his
house, he asked, "Can your horse go
fast, my boy?" mo; not very,n he re-
piled, ''but he can stand fast.'
That is virtue not to be depised in a
horse. A faithful animal that can be
trusted to remain in his tracks; with
out pulling down his hitching post, or
breaking his halter, Is to be coveted.
And christians who can stand fast
are greatly needed these days. Liberal
ism is pulling down the hitching posts
to which believers have fastened in
other days; and free thought is insist
ing that men must not be bound by
anything. Happy is the christian who
is so anchored by the truth that he
can hold fast without being tied.
"Stand fast, therefore; Id tile liberty
wherewith Christ hath iiiade iis Free"
"Stand, therefore; having your loins
girt about with truth; B. and having
done all, Stand" :"- Missionary Herald.

THE Denver Democrat seems to

THE Denver Democrat seems to
have had marked change in its
opinion of Milton Smith. chairman
of the Democratic state central
committee. This paper jumped
all over The Star less than FIVE
months ago because we happened
to hint that Milton Smith had per
mitted conditions to exist that
made it possible for the corporations
to steal the governorship from Alva
Adams. Now the Democrat blames
him for things just as bad. There
is no one that knows Milt better
than the editor of the Democrat, as
they are both lot feather" If
Patterson doesn't keep close watch
of Chairman Smiths actions he
will have Mr.. Adams defeated
again this fall. The old adage that
when rogues quarrel honesty has
a show" does not go in Colorado
politics. The only thing it recog-
nizes is the law OF the survival of
the tittest, and Milt is sure a
smooth one. &.

PRACTICAL men and practical
statesmen are all agreed that by
far the most economical way of fin
ishing the Panama Canal will be
to let 1t out by contract, but politi-
clans are all in disagreement as to
the means of doing this in view of
the michievous interference Of the
labor and tariff trusts, one OF
which says that men must not
work more than eight hours and
the other that purchases be made
only In the United States.

If you see anything that is worthy of
praises speak of 1t. Even if you can
not do a worthy deed yourself, COM
mend one who does. Praise is power
for good; both God and man prize it.
No prayer is complete without praise.
The best worker for his fellows who
fails to give praise fails to do as well as
he can. Mrs. Stowe states the truth
effectively when she says: ''Praise is
sunshine, it warns, 1t inspires, 1t pro-
notes growth; blame and rebuke are
ruin and hail; they beat down and
bedraggle, even though they may at
times be necessary" Do we do our
part in giving praise?-S: s. Times.

RELIGIOUS.

If we were only little more tender
one with the other, how much sweeter,
brighter the world would seem! and
sweeted and brighter to both ourselves
and those who engage our kindness and
long-suffering! How much misery
grows out of needless misunderstand-
ings and needless criticisms. 1t ia not
that the hawthorn is more fragrant to.
day than yesterday, but that today we
have soul to drink its breath. 1t is
not that men are more full of fault than
good, but that we have not eyes to see
nor hearts to echo the good in them.
Be kind. 1t is kingly, and, more than
all, 1t is Christlike.

The wire nest is not used as much as
1t ought TO be. A close mesh nest is
now manufactured and can be bought
in dozen lots for less than one dollar a
dozen. They can be fastened along
the wall with one or two nails to each
nest and can be taken down almost
instantly to put in fresh hay. And
when the hay is out one can rest assur-
ed that they do not furnish harbor-

A method Of getting rid Of stumps
which has been highly recommended
and which to be effective should be
done now is as follows: Bore hole
bne or two inches In diameter and
about eighteen inches deep into the
center of the stump. Then put into
this hole one or two ounces of saltpeter.
Fill the hole with water and plug it
up. In the spring take out the plug,
pour in about one-half gallon of kero-
kene on and light it. The stump will
snloldcr away to the very extermities
VI the roots, leaving nothing but the
fishes.

How to keep apples, without cold
storage, has puzzled more than one
grower Here is the advice that Budd
and Hansen give in their Manual:
'''rhe essentials of good keeping are
picking when the stem parts quite
easily from the spur, picking when
dry, handling as eggs, and getting them
as soon as possible Into relatively
dry, cool place. The old idea of going
through the sweat before placing in
the cellar has no foundation. Apples
or other fruits will sweat at any time
If when cool they are exposed to cur
rent of warmer air loaded with moist
ure. "Earth-covered caves are used
often by nurserymen to store grape
vines and fruit trees and for storing
gratis of the orchard fruits. The few
who have tried it on large scale also
find II desirable place for storing
winter apples. For apple storage 1t
should have ample ventilation. When
the apples are put In from the orchard
in the fall the days are usually warm
and the nights cool. During the night,
keep doors and ventilators open, and
during the day keep all closed, put
ting in each days picking early in the
morning. Even In winter the cave Is
opened at night for longer or shorter
period, depending on the temperature,
to let In cold air, which is held during
the day by keeping every aperture
closed. Those who experienced with
the cave method petfer it to oil others,
except ammonia cold stdrage. But it
must be kept in mind that when the
cellar air is near freezing in winter, II
1t. Is opened at midday, when the air
outside is much warmer and loaded
with moist air, it will ftish in and pre-.
cipitate its moisture"

New York, July 5.-Before $4,000
spectators two steel gladiators, groomed
and harnessed for combat, met on the
iron rails at the Brighton Beach race
track late yesterday afternoon. The
gladiators were modern railroad loco
motives.
Both were knocked to smithereens:.
There was one vast and mutual solar
Gplexus punch, two shrill and, agoflizingg
screams, clouds of smoke and ashes,,cat
aracts Of water, strange sobs and nnoans
Of agony, and then 100 tons of iron and
steel were ready for the scrap heap.
It was a spectacle such as only this
marvellous twentieth century could pro-
duce. While it lasted it was strange,
huge and barbaric, but it was over all
too soon for the great horde Of specta-
tors, who had sat patiently for three
hours III a grilling sun for the sake of
one minutes thrill. But that one
thrill was Embarrassing and must have
resembled that felt by the old-time bar

lions were driven thru the gates upon

Mullins of Denver Ready to
Force Probe of =. z
Election.
Journal Special Service.

Journal Special Service.
!. Denver, Col, July 5-Defa nce of the
supreme court probably will be the next
move in the Denver fight over the
streetcar franchises. Attorneys for the
Honest Election league tomorrow will
ask dismissal of their petition for a
grand Jury to investigate alleged cleo
ton frauds by which they claim the
utility corporations carried their fran
chise proposition by a few hundred
votes. Judge Mullins will dismiss the
case and with the proof already fur
nished will, on his own Volitlon, APP
point a special prosecutor and special
officers to summon grand Jury.
This will be in direct defiance, OF the
order of the supreme court which en-
Joined Judge Mullins from removing
District Attorney Stidger and Sheriff
Nesbit, because, as alleged by the
league, these two officers were too close
to the corporations. What steps the
supreme court will take is mere con-
lecture. but probably will be the ap-
pointment of special officers to bring
Judge Mullins before the court and in
the event of continued defiance to ask
the governor for state troops to en-
force its orders.
The sentiment among the people is
still at fever heat. The Honest Elec-
tions league claims that many promi.
nent citizens are coming forward with
ample funds to wage a vigorous prose
cution of the battle to regain the fran
chises for the people. The Tramway
company today continued the work Of
surveying new lines despite the fact
that the contest still is pending.
