turn out to be the greatest of them all.
The others were BeaconsfieJd, Bismarck
and Gambetta. The estimate of Bea-
consfield by the generation that followed
him is that he was not a great, man of
the first rank after all. Gambetta died
too soon. Bismarck clouded his great
ness by a horribly bad temper which
wrought his downfall at last. Only Li
Hung Chang, the powerful, wily, even
tempered, deeply thinking Chinaman, is
left, not a whit abated in honors inflo

years old. Exchange. .

Wioam Bros. Win.
The Winans Bros, who were cited to
appear beforeJudge Han ford at Spokane
and show cause why they should not be
fined for contempt for excluding Indians
from fishing on deeded land, had a hear
ing on the 8th, and were dismissed,
Judge Han ford deciding' they . were not
in contempt. The defendants contend
ed through their attorneys, Huntington
& Wilson, that whatever rights are se
cured to Indians by treaties are subject
to state laws, unless congress at the
time the state is admitted to the Union,
withholds from the stale the right to
make laws -which would - contravene
treaty rights.
It has been the. claim on the part of
the Indians that in giving up their lands
to the U. S. government, they not only
had the right to occupy their reserva
tions, without molestation, but bunt
and fish upon all public lands not actu
ally resided upon by settlers. The state
of Washington has a law by which fish
ermen may purchase beach lands between
high and low water marks'' for fish
ing privileges, upon which others 'are
not allowed to trespass. The Winans
Bros, became possessed of certain lands
in this manner upon which some Yaki
ma Indians persisted in fishing, and the
owners of the land, believing that In
dians possessed no right which were for
bidden a white citizen, ejected them
therefrom. Hence the suit, which has
now terminated in a victory for the
Winans Bros.

The Telegram says : Opinin is divided
as to whether, the sheepmen with their
herds have damaged the government
property in any thing like the propor
tion they have benefitted the state and
also through the different channels their
industry ' runs, the government itself.
It is true that cattle and game will not
browse pver ground once cropped by
sheep, but at the same time these sheep
are doing wonderfully efficacious service
ia keeping down the dense underbrush
of the Cascades, a growth, the trampling
out of which means much to the devel
opment of the timber.
Again, so immense is the Cascades re
serve that it would take many years for
almost numberless bands of sheep to
create anything like the havoc that it is
claimed had been made by the eight or
ten bands of sheep which it is admitted
have browsed over a fewvof the foothill
slopes. However, the law says the
sheep mast not intrude on the reserve
and the law is to be respected. ,

patriotic aire, accompanied by the
Fletcher family on the organ, flute and
French horn. The feature was the ad
dress by Hon. H. W. Rasmus, which
was at times interrupted by loud ap
plause. Chairman Taylor, senator-elect, intro
duced the speaker of the evening who
in a very few minutes captivated his au
dience. The fullest attention was paid
his every utterance. - Following are a
few extracts from the address:
"We are, I believe, entering into one
of the greatest political battles in the
history of the nation, a battle between
right and wrong, between good and bad
government, between liberty and
slavery, between prosperity and patriot
ism ; therefore, it involves issnes of vital
importance. It has been ' claimed there
is' but one issue. I claim it is a cam
paign involving many issues, the prin
cipal one being patriotism, loyally to
our government. I claim that Republi
canism is synonomous with patriotism.
The Demo-Populist candidate is the
champion of free trade. Every wage-
earner in the land must answer this
question for himself. So long as I can
buy for one day's wages, under a pro
tective tariff, as much as can be had for
two days' wages under a free-trade
policy, why should I go to the polls and
cast my vote tor a free-trade party?" .
