Would Safeguard Public Funds.

HELENA, Feb. l0.-Am6ng the mea.
sures pending in the legislative as
sembly is one which proposes to give
cities and counties the same protec-
ton in the deposit of public funds
as is now afforded the state by the
passage OF the law two years ago. A.
torney General Gslen urged strongly
the passage of the latter law, as he is
during the present session the enact
ment of q measure which will require
from banks security for all money de-.
posted by city and county treasurers.
Last fall when two banks in eastern
Montana failed, the state was the only
depositor which almost Immediately
received It's money. The security, re.
CURED by the law passed at the last
session, was Immediately convertible,
and the state was absolutely protected
against loss.
The proposed law requires that
banks handling municipal and county
funds put up security for public money
in the shape of government, state or
county bonds, and that interest at the
rate of 81 per cent be paid into the
county or city treasury. The interest
earning capacity OF money Of the
counties amounts to a considerable
sum, particularly in the larger coun.

fense is shown by the fact that no
such difficulty was experienced by the
Amalgamsted Copper company in it's
acquisition of the Minnie Healey and
other mining properties whose value
is rated 10 millions of dollars. The
possibility Of placing q value upon
such property vas also demonstra ted
by the same corporation in forming
subsidiary companies, or absorbing
them, with a certain valuation placed
upon the various mines affected.
The efforts to secure q deadlock on
the direct primary proposition. and
the delay in securing action upon a
reapportionment bill suggest the sus.
picion that influences opposed to these
measures have not been idle. These
incidents have not escaped the atten.
ton Of that portion Of the Montana
public that desires and is determined
to have government by the people.

Flowing With Dynamite.

A North Carolina farmer, discov.
ering that the heavy clay subsoil of
his farm could not be broken up with
the pillow to sufficient depth for proper
retention of the moisture and fertiliz.
ing elements. has resorted to the novel
expedient of blowing up whole fields
with dynamite. Observing that the
growth of grain was much richer than
elsewhere over spots where stumps
had been pulled or dug out of the
ground, and the earth stirred to q
depth Of several feet, he drew the con.
clusion that similar deep disturbances
of any sort would produce like re.
suits. He therefore literally "plowed'
his land with dynamite, and has &C.
cured an increase of growth that more
than justiies the cost of labor. His
watermelon crop, for instance, bene.
flied over 30 per cent by the innova'

LincoIn's Gettysburg Address.

Four score and seven years ago our
fathers brought forth on this continent
. new nation, conceived 10 liberty and
dedicated to the proposition that all
men are created equal. Now we are
engaged in q great civil war, testing
whether that nation, or any nation 90
conceived and so dedicated, can long
endure. We are mel on q great bat
tle3eld of the var. We have come to
dedicate q portion of that field az q
final resting place for those who here
gave their lives that their nation might
live. 1t is altogether fitting and proper
that we should do this. But, in q larger
sense, We cannot dedicate, we cannot
consecrate, we cannot hallow this
ground. The brave men, living and
dead, who struggled here, have con-
secrated it far above u power to
add or detract. The world will little
note, nor long remember, WIS we say
here, but 1t al never forget what they
did here. 1t is for US, the living, rather
to be dedicated here to the unfinished
work which they who fought here have
thus far so nobly advanced. It is
rather for us to be here dedicated to
the great task remaining before us-
that from these honored dead we take
increased devotion to that cause for
which they gave the last full measure
of devotion-that VI here highly re-
solve that these dead shall not have
died in vain-that this nation, under
God, shall have q new birth of free
dom-snd that government of the PEG.

A Hen Is Not a Bird.

There can be no doubt that the hen

and all the good newspaper space that
Is allotted to her. Whatever concerns

The other day the United States

glori6ed legal lexicon, decided that
''bird" was not q definition for

it sings, but 1t mustn't be classed with

edge. 1t was the result of an impor.
tant official appeal. Eggs imported
from China-which differ materially
from china eggs-are usually broken
out OF the shell and frozen. The Gus.
toms officials declared that these eggs
entered into competition with those
of the American hen, and assessed
duty on them at 5 cents q dozen.
The importers insisted that the eggs
were entitled to admission free az
BIRDS eggs, in accord auce with q Ger
tain section of the tariff. They also
commended that the eggs we're albumer
and only dutiable as such. But wher
the question reached the FIVE judges
OF the court OF appeals they nobly tool
the side OF the American hen, declar

GOVERNMENT BY THE PEOPLE

The continuance of the senatorial
deadlock in the twelfth assembly and
the defeat or delay encountered by
measures that contemplate government
by the people, sustain the belief that
an ''invisible influence" controls the
action of the present state legislature.
The senatorial aspirant who is objec.
tionable to the corporation interests
that domin ate the assembly is losing
. small proportion Of his support, the
invisible influence succeeding by de-
vious and mysterious methods in it's
efforts to encourage a few assertions
from the Walsh contingent.
1t is current gossip in legisla alive
and other political circles that the
Amalgamated Copper company has
selected Governor Norris as its candi.
date for the senatorship, his depar.
ture from the executive Office being OF
little Importance to the corporations
interests, as his successor would be
Lieutenant. Governor Allen. The lat.
ter has furnished evidence, in his &C.
ton upon the mines taxation move
ment, that his elev alton to the Office
of governor would not be q menace tc

tiers.
The proposed submission of q con.

property as q taxable asset OF thu
commonwealth, was turned down by

bers held that the people should no

themselves as to the justice of thii
proposition.

China and Mexico.

The Chinese government is prob
ably in a position to enforce any
demand for indemnity it may choose
to make upon Mexico for the loss Of
Chinese lives and property at Tor
reon.
We are accustomed to think OF
China as a harmless nation, unskilled
in the art of war. But that is not
the case. China is in possession of
a navy which, though not ranking
with those of the great powers, is
fairly modern. And as far back as
the Chino japanese war, the Chinese
demonstrated that they knew some
thing of modern sea fighting. Prob
ably no other warships of equal num-
Der Of the navy of any other nation
could have made a better showing
against the Japanese at that time.
The Mexican navy consists of a
single antiquated gunboat manned by
officers and men who know nothing
about naval matters.
The coast cities OF Mexico are
without adequate defenses against the
attack of a modern cruiser, which is
now said to be on the way to en-
force the demand for indemnity. AS
10 the military capability of China,
there is much conjecture. 1t is only
known that the numerical strength
is great and that for many years
German officers have been engaged
in training the Chinese to fight. II
is also known that China possesses
up-to- date military equipment. 1t is
quite probable that if the demand
Of the Chinese should be resisted to
the point of war, there would be
bloody happenings in the republic
which would make the late revolution
seem tame.
