Principles.

far as the closing of the Clore
street resort is concerned we GER
t,ioIv have no complaint, and as to
tba nroprietors of the same, we
rkswise have no concern. We
base all our actions on the broad
plane Of principle, and we DO not
believe that the star chamber pro-
ceedings Of the police committee
:, socret session where the enemies
of the gentlemen concerned gave
vent to their personal likes and
disIikes behind the back OF the par
ties on trial; we predicated on even
the borders of principle. The facts
IN the case, it seems, are that the
edict had been issued, and this
resort had to go by fair means if
possible, by foul means if neces-
sary. Graye and Gordon, for some,
were making too much money
for one. and he a councilman, they
we're too close to him; with them
out of business he could be posi-
bly, figured, thrive like a green bay
tree To others, and this strikes
home to some of the highest; the
mixing of even the scrapings and
ofal of the earth by which this
particular place was characterized,
was too much. Sixteen hands
around with light blonds and eight
husky blacks was the climax with
the Tillmanites and Lily Whites,
so on this basis, and equally as
astounding and pernicious prem
ises, had the edicts that this resort
must be closed been issued.
The claim of its being a resort
for criminals, AMI a dive were only
dust thrown in the eyes Of the
unwary. The place was way up
above the average saloon in ap-
pointments, cleanliness, etc. And
was patronized very literally by
all classes, eighty-fve per cent oi
their patronage being white.
This statement no doubt is a
revelation to many, but it is true:
many figured that when the col
ored soldiers were ordered away
the place would be a losing ven
ture in business way, but theil
business increased, if anything
and the parties who desired their
scalps, realized they could no lon
ger wait for their demise in busi
ness, for want Of patronage, so they
being black, we can use that mos
dangerous weapon of prejudice
which is more potent in destroying
foes than the highest explosive ye
invented, and they were success
iul as matter of course.
The claims made that they ar,
investigating other places is onl,
balm for the fair-minded who ar
opposed to those tactics.
In stones throw from this re
sort are places which are twent
umes worse, and productive
more evil and crimes which can b
easily proven, and is a we'll know
TACT to the average citizen.
We frown upon the saloon wit
It's influences, We denounce immoi
allty in every form, and our mi
sion Is to stand up for the rigl
and denounce the wrong; we b
heve that our people and all Othe
should aspire to higher positic
III LIE than that of retailing boo
ana catering to the denizens OF
red light district.

An EnviabIe Record.

The all important office OF the
sheriff of Gallatin county is filled
by comparatively young man in
the person of Mr.. +. M. Reynolds
and never has an official gained
the confidence of his constituents
in this office to a greater extent
than has the present incumbent.
Since Mr.. Reynolds incumbency
of the office of sheriff, the criminal
element has had to steer clear OF
his bailiwiek; he has made an en-
viable record in the capture OF
criminals both in his county and
for other officials throughout the
country, The horse thieves have
found in him a relentless enemy
who has proven their undolng.
He is A hard worker and in the
language of one of the deputies he
does not say go on boys! But iti
always, come on boys! He is as
sisted by a courteous and efficient
set of deputies in the persons OF
A. H. Sales, undersheriff and dep
uties H. w. Bull, Jas Keown, Geo.
Battenfelder, S. c. Montgomery
and d. +. Gray 20 assss 5
Mr.. Reynolds is OF course a
staunch republican and merits a
denomination and reelection by an
increased majority.

POLITICAL SNAPSHOTS.

llC LAlNDEAl4ER > OOHlCHllOl
as to LaCroix's unhtness for such
an office as County Attorney of a
county of the magnitude of Lewis
and Clarke, has been fully upheld
when a public officials conduct is
such that the Judge of the district
court will publicly reprimand him
in open court. We submit again
the question, is he the right man
in the right for such a office. And
this rebuke was administered by
one of his own party. The people
want no more of LaCroiX and his
methods.
Your uncle Dick Purcell can new
laugh the laugh of he who laughs
best, when he sees all those who |
Opposed him, getting it where the
chicken got the axe.
DR.. Brooke is evidently one of
those broadgauged democrats who
does not believe that two wrongs
make one right and who stands
for a principle, and is IN sympathy
with the Roosevelt idea, which is
not, black man down and white
man up, nor white man down and
black man up, but rather all men
up and no man down.
Lissner the moral politician, for
whom even those who are not oil
his political faith, bow in humble
acouiessence and in star chamber
proceeding executes his will, hav-
ling now dethroned the King of the
Blackbirds, is playing his role to
finish, as his visits to Clore St. of
Hate have been more frequent and
of longer duration.
Owing to the absence OF several
of the county officials from Boze-
man, we did not have the pleasure
of meeting all of the Gallatin coun-
tv officials; we, however, did meet
one old "moss back" in the per
son of the county treasurer, and
we cannot conceive how he ever
got elected to that position as we
do not believe that he knows him
self.
AT Bozeman we met the efficient
and able County Attorney, A. J.
Walrath, who has proven such a
: terror to all evil doers. He IS d
r pleasant and affable gentleman tc

JUDGE SHIRLEY BADLY HURT,

1 On Sunday last Judge Shirley who
 Is in the employ of the A. c. com
 pany at Metcalf, and in charge of a gang of laborers, met with quite a
 serious accident. which will confine
 him to the hospital for several weeks. It seems that the ore in one
 of the large ore bins got stuck, and
 in order to loosen 1t so that it will | run through the ore chutes into the cars 1t is necessary for men to 20 down into the bin and pick it loose.
 The judge had some men working for
 him who did not understand the busi- ness, and he went into the bin to
 show them. This is somewhat of a
 ticklish business. It is customary
 for the man on top to give the alarm
 when the ore commences to move
 but the new man did not understand
 this and before the judge realized it.
 the ore came down upon him so fast
 that he could not get away. and he
 was soon buried under tons of it. It
 was impossible for the men to re-
 move the ore from the top of the bin.
 hence the only way relief could be
 secured was to draw the ore of through the chute and into the cars. This was done, and the judge came
 out with the ore. His left leg was broken at the knee, and he was bad ly bruised about the head and body. but the most remarkable feature of the accident was that. his life was spared. He was brought to the A. c. hospital in the evening, where his leg was set and his wounds dressed and he is now getting along as well as could be expected.-Clifton Era.

GREENE ON WAY
 TO NEW YORK
Passes Through Bisbee, And Says Conditions at Cana.
 Dea Are Excellent

Colonel w. c. Greene, president oi the Greene Consolidated Copper Com
 many, passed through Bisbee last even xng in his private car en route to New York. Colonel Greene was accompa nied by his daughter. MT. Robbins and wife. and Norton Chase. attorney for Lhe company
 Mr. Greene was in his usual good humor, and had the appearance of man who was well satisfied with the condition Of his several industrial en- terprises in the Southwest. -..a
 Speaking of Cananea. Mir. Greene stated that the improvements ordered by the board of directors at the time of she late increase in the capital stock, were already under way and when completed the Cananea com pany would be in 8 position to mate visliy increase its output. ..
 He stood on the platform for mo ment at the depot and was immedi- szteiy surrounded by crowd Of old friends, who extended him the glad hand, just the same as they did twen- Ey years ago when Fill" Greene was small cattle owner in Cochise county and before the Cananea mines S-fre heard of. |. r|
 Mir. Greene stated that the Greene Consolidated Company affairs were nsver in a more prosperous condition and this assertion is borne out by the stock quotations. Greene Consolidat- ed has weathered the slump in copper szocks better than any other company sn the market. Instead of the recent increase in the capital stock having a depressing effect the result was eA- .zctiy the contrary.
 Before visiting Cananea, Mir Greene spent several days in the State of Chi hnahua, where the Greene Gold-Silver Company have some large enterprises rpnder way, including railroad build ing, smelters and mining.
 MT. Greene expected to spend one Gzy in Fl Paso and then proceed to | New York. where several big deals are awaiting his attention. Nr. l N. J. Cunningham Of the Bank of Bis bee met Mir. Greene at the depot and l was his guest as far as Douglas.

MARKET GOSSIP.
Week Ends With
 Market Unchanged.

"CCS cfloS NllO : Market Unchanged.
 March IT, 1906.
 The week ending was feature less and most all the stocks closed weak, with fractional declines. There was plenty of stock offered. but few bidders.
 American, Warren and Juno ton are the local stocks that were mostly dealt in, but they showed signs of weakening at today's close
 Butte & London and North Butte are holding up well in the face of a weakening mar ket and came in for a good share of the weeks trading.
 Black Mountain is also strengthening some today, and closed with s11.75 bid. Cochise at $5.25, looks very cheap. They soon expect to start work in the old drift as well as re- timbering the shaft, and may get ore in a short time.
 Although the market may be dull and uninteresdng for a week or two longer, we be- lieve in buying on any weak spots.

told us that peace had been declared. He
was journeying north to Bethel, after
Aimee, and had stopped overnight for Il
rest. He welcomed me cordially, and hear
ing the story of our elopement and my
treatment at the hands of his brother, de-
cided not to go to Bethel, but to return
with US to Paris.
A week later the bells rang sweetly in
the tower of the historic Church of the
Madeleine, and in the presence of my good
friends, with Fleischmann as best man,
led my Aimee to the altar.
The Chateau Lagunay, rehabilitated
stands in stately grace amid the trees on
the banks of the Meuse. Aimee is sweeter
and lovelier than ever. Here we spend part
of our leisure, taking occasional business
trips to America. Fleischmann is with us
always; Latour and my club friends come
often to spend holiday. Germany and
France are friends through the influence of
our great Roosevelt. In our abode of
peace and happiness the beat of drums and
the clash of swords is forgotten. Life is
sweet indeed after the conflict.
