The democrats mean business this year,

iicanism. They talked over an extra session

Idea OF Governor Plaisted calling one. This
early meeting Of the committee is a notice TO

Granite Hall was crowded last evening
with friends of the Band, and the fair prom
ises to be apecuniary success. The dramatic
features were two farces which were uproar-
iously funny, and were presented with marked
talent. Rev. &. A. White rected selec-
ton from Hamlet with admirable effect,
and was applauded to the echo. The quar-
sette singing was very enjoy able feature.
Mrs. Welch sang a solo very sweetly, and
was encored. The Band gave several pieces
from their repertoire, and displayed to fine
advantage the wonderful progress they have
made under Mr.. Halls leadership. Tonight
the fair closes with dance. The clock is to
be awarded to the most popular printer, and
an interesting struggle is anticipated. The
Eshetc Band are to appear, and a fine prog
ramme is arranged.

Gladstone Booming.

Gladstone, the new city IN the wilder
ness of the Green river valley, the head
centre of the Ripon colony Of christians,
is booming. A gentleman who passed
that point on Wednesday, says there
wasn't house in sight, but on his return
the next day he counted five. The first
building erected, we understand, was a
church, or place Of worship. Gladstone
will be the first town in Montana where
liquor will not be Sold, None but chris
tians and teetotalers will inhabit that new
boom centre, and they, never drink at a
public bar. Therefore saloon could
not live even, should it be tolerated to
open its doors within the sacred precincts
of Gladstone. A girl of muddy morals,
or scarlet woman of more ymature years,
will not be allowed to enter the city. In
case one should get within its gates, we
are assured that she would be stoned be-
yond its limits by the real lid mon OF the
community. All Of which is correct
enough. They have gone out there by
themselves to create a truly good neigh
borhood, and enjoy its high moral atmos-
phere, and no sinner has right to III
trude upon them.
