depository law, the constitutionality of

court Monday, held meeting imme-
diateiy after the adjournment of the

France and England.

Naturally the press of England and
the continent of Europe sees the seeds
Of new triple alliance in the Anglo
French exposition held in London and
the recent visit Of the president Of
France to King Edward on the eve or
the departure of the English monarch
for the capital Of the car. France
and England, 1t Is argued, are getting
together, and, as for Russia, it is as
sumed that she will jump at the
chance Of strengthening her ties with
western Europe. Since Russia and
France have always been considered
emit cordial relations between France
md her island neighbor appears to
some sanguine minds the inclusion of
Russia to round out the circle and
form an alliance to offset that between
Austria, Germany and Italy.
Generally the American press dis
credits the foreign notion that 4 new
triple alliance is in prospect. It is con-
ceded that Russia and France would
have much to- gain by a close military
alliance with England. From this
view the New York Tribune takes ex-
eeption, because what France would
need for support against her logical
enemy, Germany, is not so much naval
reinforcement as an army. The
French have always taken that ground
whenever the prospect of alliance was
considered. It was not Nelson with
his invincible navy who crushed Ma
poleon, but Wellington. with an irwin
chile army. so that France. would
risk by alliance with England at the
present time, provoking Germany to
aggression, and have only the English
Dreadnoughts to, depend upon. That
the isolation of Germany which would
follow this alliance must arouse the
aggressiveness of the German war
lord is taken for granted by the Trib-
supposed to be prompted il not col
ored by tips from it's editor in chief,
Ambassador Whitelaw Reid. The wis
dom of King Edward alone, if nothing
else. this paper contends, makes this
rumored diplomatic move inconceiva-
BILE, because the consummation Of the
ALLIANCES would appear in; Germany tam
tamount to a declaration Of war.

Anent the Mission. Of the Fleet.

The Australian speople shouted
themselves hoarse with JOY" according
to & Melbourne correspondent Of the
London Chronicle; when the wires
brought news Of the visit Of the fleet
to Australian ports: No doubt but
prospects of a ofeast and a frolic"
with American tars as guests, and the
compliment implied in the visit was
not overlooked. Yet the Australian
view Of the meaning Of the cruise Is
eolored by a dip into the future, the
Chronicle man declares. We read:
The feelings of Australians however
touch greater depths than those of van
ity and self esteem in this matter. The
men who guide and govern peer anxious
ly into the future to a time when the
Anglo-Japanese treaty will either be no
more or will be profoundly modified.
They fancy they see a stage ahead in
which the yellow races Oft their northern
and eastern coasts will deem the moment
for aggression has come. They imagine
q set Of circumstances In which their an
cient mother in Europe will require every
battleship at her call for her own protec-
They forecast the creation Of navy of
their own which, though powerful, will
be but a walnut between relentless
nutcrackers when Asiatic fleets a!ssall it.
'And." they say to themselves, "to whom
shall we look for aid? On whom shall
we lean? With whom can we cooperate
when this dire extremity is reached? On
whom, indeed but the United States Of
America" This. after ALL is the heart
of the whole business.
Americans have always cherished to-
ward Australians the warmest SYM
patty and friendship. The Austria
liam states are framed in great meas
ure upon the American structure, and
all Americans are interested in watch
ing the development Of civilization in
that country, where imperial influence
is counterbalanced by a most virile
and intelligent local sentiment Since
| the United States admits the common
trust Of the two white races whose
| destinies are bound up in Pacific dom
| nance, Australians are determined tC
be worthy of rank as the friend and
potential ally of this great power.

Chester, Mont, June II, 1908.
Early last Monday morning the Ma.
las river got SO high as to flood the
homes of many of the ranchers living
in tina, part of the country. The riv-
::gc mounts to several thousands OF
dollars. Some Of the houses were
completely covered, others so that
only the roof could be seen.
Mr.. Pugsley alone lost about SS,-
900 worth of alfalfa hay. The Marias
is full of all kinds of floating hou e.

storing some kind of order. Mr. Van

Mr.. and Mrs. Arthurs expect to

Tom Hoolihan has ben sick the

The heavy rainfalls caused a good
deal of damage to the tracks at Con-
cord, and for quite distance east
and west of there. The trains were
delayed by this two or three days.
The water was so high that it came
in at the windows of the section house
and the Gibson family were obliged
to move upstairs.
Chester has the, distinction of being
about the only dry town in Montana,
this refers to water and not local OPP
ton. While Chester has had quite a
little rain, the reservoir has probably
gained about two inches OF water, and
the coulees around here have only a
very little water in them. Chester is
MT at all envious of the flooded towns
but we would appreciate enough watts Z
to fill our reservoirs and coulees.

Man IS MISSING

SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. 3O.-T. b
Meador, who is well known socially
in Virginia, New, is missing from ths
st Francis, where he was a guest
Tor eighteen days in December. ana
again from January 4th to 11th.
While Meador was out for good
time and spending money freely, his
hotel account was promptly paid. and
the query among his friends Is.
=" What has become Of him?" A de-
tective called at the hotel yesterday
and showed check for $3.50, pur-
porting to have been offered recently
by Meador and now claimed to be
worthless. People of Virginia were
unable to throw any light on the sub
lect for the local sleuths. The theory
Is either that Meador has been enter
tanned somewhere in town or has met
with foul play.

owned and operated BY c. Pritchard.
Yesterday was heavy day for coll

and for that reason MIR. Pritchard
felt no qualms In leaving that much
money in the safe. But last night
the young man went to the show,
and the safe crackers easily forced
an entrance into his room through
sliding window, and from the room
it was but step 10 the safe. Mr..
Stewart returned from the theater
little after II o'clock. and the first
thing he noticed was that the outer
door OF the Office was open. He did
not marvel much at this but when
he turned on the electric light and
saw the wreck, he gasped in aston
ishment, and then ran for the tele-
phone to ring up MS employer Be

time, he rang up the police and In
response to his call Captain Welsh.

Il did not take the officers long to

The manner In which the job had
been done was clear as daylight. The
safe crackers had taken the precau-
ton TO take with them all their own
tools those of the Office which they
had used we're scattered about the

open, and the tumblers OF the com
