A NATIONAL POLICY
CON BARTHOLDT FAVORS 1T
FOR IMPROVEMENTS.
Makes an Address to Prominent RusI.
ness Men Favorlns the Policy Of
Issuing Bonds-Would Spend Five
Hundred Million Dollars to Improve
Our Great Waterways.

Congressman Richard Bartholdt of
st. Louis declared recently in an ad-
dress before business men, bankers
and large shippers of st. Louis for
national policy of issuing bonds for
international improvements, especial
ly waterways.
Since the civil war;" he said,
every great question which has d.
vided political parties has been bust
ness question. We have a right to
conclude that the party is most likely
to succeed which is most willing to
champion the cause of general well
fare by promoting the most important
business policy ever before the coun-
try. The chairman Of the committee
on appropriations, Congressman Taw-
ney, said in an interview at Chicago
the other day: international water
way improvements can not be expect
ed until our appropriations for the
army and navy are lessened or special
taxes are levied
IF our government is to enter up
on a policy favoring systematic in
ternational Improvements a regular
annual budget would be necessary for
that purpose, the same as for the army
and navy. Perhaps we shall live to
see the day when that will be done
under readjustment such as will no
longer permit our military and naval
budgets to expend two thirds of our
revenues. For some years to come,
am afraid such a readjustment will
be impracticable.
mo one will contend that it is any
thing but a question of money. We
may well ask whether the project to
secure navigable channels from the
lakes to the gulf, from the upper Mis-
sissippi, the Missouri, the Ohio and
the other rivers, shall wait until an
income tax or an inheritance tax shall
have yielded sufficient revenue to pay
for them. We would say no.
''An issue of 2 of 8 per cent bonds
to the extent of $5OO,OOO,OOO to be dis
tributed over a period Of say 10 years
will suffice to complete great river
projects and solve the problem of the
permanent improvement of our great
waterways. 1t is my judgment that
it cannot be done in any other way,
and if the gentlemen here think well
Of it l will introduce a bill to that
effect.
mo American has dreamed of OBJ
jecting to the Panama canal, though
this is an enterprise for the whole
world. Why then, should there be
any objection to an undertaking
which is of particular benefit to the
United States? AS matters stand the
chances for the great and important
projects are almost hopeless, and will
remain so as long as we must content
ourselves with the crumbs that fall
from the national table when the pie
is being distributed to the depart
ments."

QUEER WAY OF SMOKING.
West Indians Put Lighted End of
Cigar i'm Mouth.

West Indians Put Lighted End of
Cigar i'm Mouth.
Visitors to the West Indies and the
Spanish main have often noticed thena-
tive negro carrying a thin, dark object,
like a very long cigarette or slender ci-
gar, in his mouth, and If these visitors
look long enough they would see smoke
issuing occasionally from between the
full, red lips Of buxom matron or a
dried-up granny, says the New York
Herald. But even the most observant
could see no light on the end of the CT
gar smoked by the natives of the trop-
les.
That is not to be wondered at, how
ever, for the reason that it is the Gus
tom Of the natives in that part of the
country to smoke with the lighted end
inside the mouth. That is curious, of
course, but not as remarkable as it
sounds. Most Of the women, who are
all great smokers, work very hard.
They coal ships load bananas and do
the kind Of work usually done by men,
When on the docks, where they make
hundreds Of trips a day from the ship
to the coal yard or fruit cars, there is
generally a strong breeze blowing and
it would be almost impossible to keep a
cigar lighted in the teeth of a stiff
trade wind. Besides, these hard toll
ers, who earn a few pence or a shilling
a day, according to the amount of coat
or fruit they carry, could not afford to
take the time to keep their tobacco
lighted, so they hit upon the scheme of
protecting the light by keeping it in
the mouth and thus enjoying a smoke
without trouble or loss of time. They
have been doing this for so many years
that the older ones are experts ane
never burn their tongues or the inside
Of their mouths and the younger wom-
en- soon get the hang of it.
The cigars they smoke are usually
made of native tobacco and fashioned
very rudely. They are about the size
Of a lead pencil.

MONTANA ITEMS,

On the same day that bandits at
tempted to secure $4,000 from the
Burlington railroad in Montana
through blackmail, an attempt was
also made to hold up the manage
ment of the Billings, Mont, sugar
factory for the same amount. Neither
scheme worked.
Mrs. William A. Clark, wife of the
Montana senator, has returned to the
United States with their year old
child. This is the first time that Mrs.
Clark has been in the United States
in two years. She will go on to Wash
ington for the winter session soon as
conditions permit. When the session
closes he will return to Paris. The
senator said that they would enter
tain at their home during the winter.
The trial of G. D. Schmidt at Helena
on the charge of killing his wife,
which has just commenced, is likely
to be somewhat sensational, owing to
the fact that letters were found on
the dead woman which indicated that
she had soldier lover at Fort ASSN
niboine, who was the direct cause of
the tragedy.
The Silver Bow Bar association, at
meeting in Butte has agreed unani-
mously on an increase of legal fees.
The attorneys state that the increased
cost of living has made the raise in
their scale imperative.
Butte, Mont-A sensation was
sprung recently when Mrs. George W.
Bourquinn, wife of District Judge
Bourquinn, one of the best known
men of the city, began an action for
separate maintenance, alleging in her
complaint that the judge had been
untrue to her and bringing into the
case a certain pretty young woman
law librarian.
F. P. Smith has been arrested by
the police of Billings on the charge
of attempting to blackmail the Bill
ings Sugar company of $4,000. It'll
was Smith who warned the police of
the alleged plot. He asserts his inno-
cence, declaring that he simply over
heard tn conversation relative to the
dynamite outrage.

INTELLECTUAL NEW YORK.
More Reading Done There Than ir

More Reading Done There Than IT.
Any other City.
Boston may claim the palm for intel
lectuality and real blue blooded ''baked

few persons who dwell more upon let

average New Yorker, says the New
York Press.
The New Yorker never stops read
Ing, from the moment he shuts his fiat
door behind him In the morning until
he comes back and shuts it behind him
again at night. The moment he gets
downstairs the bellboy hands him his
mail or he takes it out OF his own
letter box as the case may be. 1t may
not contain personal letter, but there
Is never a day that he does not receive
from one to three or four advertise
ments, booklets, pamphlets or circulars.
He always glances over these at least
once, and by the time he has finished
he has reached the corner and is buying
his morning newspaper.
AS there Is a newspaper issued about
every hour of the day In New York
City and many men try to devour them
all the New Yorker spends a good many
hours over his pink, yellow or burnt
orange sheet. If he happens to finish
one of these while on a street car or
elevated train he cannot glance up with
out seeing a dozen advertisements along
the line above the windows waiting to
be read. These glare at him so stead
tasty and furiously that he cannot fail
to read them sooner or later But if
ones eyes are tired and he shuts them
to the street car ads, or turns them to-
ward the street, the spell is still upon
him. Signs, big and little quick lunch
signs, hotel signs, tailor shop signs
bootblacks, BARRIERS, theaters-an have
their signs; millions of them, like mi
crobes.
Then there are the names of the
streets on the lamp posts as he flashes
by. There is an almost uncomfortable
desire to read them as well as the mum.

you and the newsstand signs teeming
with vari-colored ads and the billboards
and the rubber-neck coaches and the
sandwich men. By the time the New
Yorker reaches his Office and begins to
open his mail his eyes and brain are
tired; but he goes on all day long, read

soups and health foods and cold cream
and hair reviewers, etc, and then the
Bostonian sneers because we have no
time or inclination left for reading mere

posed if at this meeting. The mat
ter of alloting range will come up at

but after lengthy discussion all diff

tablished.
The state land board has made an
order requesting the segregation of
10000 acres of land on the north
side of the Snake to be reclaimed
from the proposed north side canal

Water company. The company pre-
vioualy had 10000 acres segregated
in the vicinity of it's dam at Miner,
making about 10000 to be reclaimed
on the north side of the river. This
followed the compromise Of the con-
test between that company and the
Idaho Canal company over some 5000
acres of this land, under which the
latter company agreed to take another
tract of land which could be covered
from it's system, but could not be
reached by the other.
