The Way ssOrrs Talked.

Chicago News: The death of Emery
Storrs calls to mind an incident IN his
career which ;llustrates his power as an
orator and his wonderful command Of
startling metaphor and invective. Ia
1856 at the time that President johnson
was threatened with impeachment, there
was meeting called by the citizens Of
Chicago at Crosby's opera house to up
hold Congress in in its effort to bring the
president to account. Storrs was.s mem.
Der of the committee on resolutions, and
it deyolved on him to speak to the OK.
cited and and angry audience which
filed the magnificent house TO over.
flowing. The temper of the audience
was such, for a long time, that they
would not listen to him, but he tired
them out and forced them 10 hear, He
made magnificent speech as all who
heard him viii remember, and in the
course of his remarks he made the fol-
lowing denunciation of the president.
johnson had said, or was reported to
have said, that if he was impeached he
would turn the army and navy upon
congress and blow it to =. Said Storrs
"If he shoul do this it were better for
him that he were put TO sea in asEip Of
lead, with rigging and sails Of Fteel,
Death at the helm. the wrath Of God for
breeze, and hell for hia destination" !"
The vast audience shuddered for q mo-
ment at these awful words, and the burst
into tremendous applause. The figure
of speech has been since used by StOrrs
and others, but he was the author and
it was this occasion that gave it birth.

The Silver Question.

One of the most engrossing subjects OF
newpaper comment and controversy at
present is that of SILVER. Congress will
have to deal with it, and perhaps it is
well that the people should thoroughly
understand every aspect of the question,
especially western people, as it is one Of
vital Importance to them. To our mind
the suspension of silver coinage, would
work greet injury to the agricultural and
labor classes. and there should be no at
tempt made to interfere with an unlim-
silver coinage. On the other hand the
bankers and moneyed men of the coun.
try claim that the continued coinage of
silver is likely to create an unsettled and
unhealthy condition of our national
finances. Congressman Warner Of Ohio
has evidently given the subject more
thorough investigation than any of his
colleagues, and as result will offer to
congress his compromise bill, which pro-
vides for the discontiuuance of the cur
rent monthly coinage, and in lieu there
of there shall he issued certificates to the
holders of silver, who deposit their bull
lion in the United States treasury, and
that these certificates shall express an
amount of money equal to the market
value of the bullion at the time Of its
deposit The bankers strongly object to
this bill on the ground of unconstitution-
ality. Others object because they be-
lieve that the feature which fixes the
value of the certificates at the time Of
their issue and at the. time of their re-
demption places the government at the
mercy of INSCRIPTIONS spectators. We
sincerely believe that silver should be
equal with gold-a legal tender and that
it should be received in payment of
bonds and debts of the government.
Facts and figures can he brought to prove
that mono metallism is fallacy inaug-
urated by the bankers, and eastern
moneved men who refuse to recognize
the agricultural and laboring classee.

Seven Months OF Democracy,

The administration has now reached
stage of repose. That is to say, it is
relieved greatly of the burdens which
office seekers can impose upon a public
servant. Washington is deserted by those
whose laudable ambition is to hold Office.
This enables the heads of the depart
ments respectively to get acquainted
with their affairs. The cabinet as a
whole seems to be strong one. Secretary
Whitney adds to a fine legal mind all
those elements of business which make
a judicious administrator. Under his
short reign the navy department which
has had for years the smell of corruption
about it stands in better light, and the
barnacles who were attached to it have
passed out of sight. If congress back up
the young secretary he will so rehabitate
our decrepit navy that it will be an estab-
lishment of ships rather than shouldar
STRAPS. Secretary Manning has made as
good secretary of the treasury as did
Senator Sherman, and the department is
not odorous of scandal. 1t is not on the
defensive. The policy Of the treasury
department has been such as TO give
tranquility and confidence to business
circles. Wall street is not running the
department nor is there any umbllical
cord between the treasury and specula-
tors as once there was. 1t is now con-
Quoted on business principles. Special
favorites are not sent abroad at public
expense. The credit of the national has
improved rather than impaired under
Democratic rule All the other member |
of the cabinet are workers. The dav of |
the idler has gone. There are no fictiti-
GUS names on any of the public pay-rolls. |
The revenues are faithfully collected and |
honestly and economically distributed. |
Indeed, there is such a good showing !
under less than year of Democratic rule
that the arty of opposition is forced to
fall back to the bloody shirt for camp
aign cry. The thousand and one ills
which the Republican leaders prophesied
for the people under the Democracy do
not fructify. and the actual lease of the
government by the Democratic party has |
shown to fair-minded men that for !
twenty years or more the Republican
campaigns have been conducted on false
issues, just as they are now under
Sherman's lead in Ohio.

FaIl FaIloKIng.

On every farm. as far as possible, the
spring work should be done in the fall.
Every spring there is some delay on ac-
count of the season. and work is SO hur-
ried that it cannot be well done. There
is always an abundance of time in the
fall, and the opportunity should not be
missed of pushing everything ahead in
good season for spring work. One spec
iaI work should not be neglected, and
that is piowing and working weedy
stubbles, or following the soil, in q seas
on when nothing else can be done with
it. This is most userul work. which
should occupy the farmers attention
while no other work is pressing. To
prevent the seeding of the weeds is the
principal thing, and this is work which
calls for the strlctest care at every sea-
son.

An Austrian Captain.

There are very few in Bozeman who
are acquainted with the history Of Mr..
L. Deutsch, who has been in Bozeman
for the last year. MIR. Deutsch, naturally
of retiring disposition, has made very
little effort to give publicity to the dis
tinguished honors he has and now en-.
joys at the hands of another nation.
Several years ago the gentleman was q
lieutenant in the Austrian army, IN the
engineering department. At public
drill, attended by the mobiles and others
of the Austrian court, he was ordered to
Law pontoon bridge across the Danube.
The requisite number of men were given
him and in less than ten minutes after
the order was given the bridge was laid.
Astcnished and gratified at the quick
work, Lieut.. Deutsch was ordered to re.
port to his commander and was by him
informed that he had been promoted 70
captaincy, with five years furlough to
visit America and observe the construc-
ton of railroads and bridges in this
country. Capt. Deutsch ut once repaired
to st. Paul, and from there he went to
Miles City in the employ Of the North
ern Pacific engineering department, be.
heving that he could gain better idea
of the work in the employ of the com.
Two years ago Mr.. Deutsch's furlough
reached its end, but being 50 infatuated
with America and Montara in particular
he concluded to resign his position in
the Austrian army and become citizen
of America. It was by accident that the
CHRONICLE obtained this chapter of the
history of the gentleman, and had he
known that we were in possession of its
he would, no doubt have asked that it be
kept out of the paper.

The White House as at present
circumstanced is only public Office
or department, With rooms attached,
which the president is compelled to
lnhabit, like the stcrekeeper who
lives either up stairs, or in the back
part of the shop. There should be
no "shop' about the Presidential
household. lie should have his
offices, and home apart, so that his
life might be permitted the comfort
and privacy, which can only be
maintained BY entire separation
from business, and It's obtrusions.
No Cabinet officer or Bureau official
would relish living with his family
within the walls of his department.
The cares Of Office are identical
with the cares OF business. When
merchant or business man closes
his days work he goes to his home.
and it is tie home life which gives
him solsce, and enables him to meet
the trials Of the day su ccseIing.
