Alexander Young, of Laporte, Ind., an astronomer, has announced that from observations made by him he is confident that the sunis inhabited; that with his instrument he has seen on the sun’s surface mountainsides with great and precipitous rocks which glow with prismatic colors, mingled with the greenness of a per- ennal vegetation and with a floral radiance more beautifal than that on earth—Beyond these mountains he says he saw valleys and plains where people live. He says the solar spectrum is a division of the compo- nent parts of theelectric current pro- ceeding from the sun after it enters the confines of the earth's atmos- phere, upon which is_electrographed. the image of the solar fields of color and which spread over the vast sur- face of the sun. “The Fair Trial or Supreme Court bill passed by the present legislature is the most important measure that has eo far reached the statute books of the state. The congested condi tion of the supreme court docket will be relieved as soon as the three com- missioners shall have been selected by the bench, and in the interest of Meatera Montana, The Times would suggest the name of Hon. John T. Smith of Livingston as one of the ablest lawyers in thisend of the state for selection by Associate Justice Mil- burn. Both his ability and his dem- ocracy are of a brand that will meet bres gong of every yor of that party who possess a sufficincy of the first to be able to tell what the second means.” For more than a quarter of acen- tury this has been kept up to cripple the state at home and discredit her abroad. Such persistent assaults have had a tendency to discourage investors and prevent immigration, and at each recurring election the claim was set up that the price of confidence to eastern capital was the change of party control. In spite of all this the Democratic administra- tions have gone forward with their wise, conservative and economical management to the elimination of an enormous debt, corruptly and ex- travagantly put upon the state by the very party that has by disrepu- tuble means attempted to drag down her fair name in the eyes of the world. At the time the Democrats took con- trol taxes were so high as to be bur- densome, but under its wise manage ment the levies were reduced, as the debt was extinguished, until now we have the lowest levy of any of our sister states, and, ‘a consummation devoutly to be. wished by states, counties and municipalities, as well as individuals, are free of bonded debts, Can any Missourian bea fair- minded man and withhold commen- no matter to which party they may belong and therefore all are equally interested in the results, but certain ly that party which came into power during the darkest hours of tinanciat troubles and have successfully steer- ed the ship of state through the storms and breakers, to that heaven of safety and security, beyond the debt clouds, are deserving of the credit, and they will receive it at the hands of a just and loyal people. Itis fit and proper that the destruc. tion of the last of these evidences of Republican misrule should be cele- brated amidst great rejoicing by a)! the people. It is a day that will be memorable in the history of the state. —__—_—_—— Audience With Emperor Was Strictly Private. The following cablegram was re- ceived by the World’s Fair official- from President Francis, dated Berliu, Monday evening: “Filty minutes’ audience with the emperor; strictly private, not even the ambassador being present.
