Mr.. Toole's Congressional record is EN-.
bodied in the platform which the n
ton presents to the electors OF the Terri
tory for their endorsement. He took an
active part and was mainly instrumental
in securing the passage of the bills Of para
mount Importance to Montana enumer
ated in the seventh division OF the plat
form. 1t was also through the efforts Of
MI. Toole that the judiciary Of the Terri
tory was increased, thus correcting an evil
which had long existed and which had been
the source of much well-founded complaint.
Upon his record thus made Mr.. Toole
can safely stand. He has made a diligent,
faithful representative. He has neglected
no duty, and the Democracy of the Terri.
tory can point with pride and pleasure to
the integrity, ability and consummate tact
and success of Montana's delegate in Con.
grees, and the standard bearer OF the party.

In THE face of continued evidences of
hostility toward Ireland shown by the En-
glish Ministry, one cannot but recall the
words Of Gladstone, uttered in his last
speech in the Commons. that nearly one
and a half million of Englishmen and
Scotchmen voted at the last election in
favor OF giving Ireland home rule and JUS
tice. This fact leads one to hope that the
time is not far distant when that million
and a half will be double1 !, and then quad
rupled and added to until Ireland sdemand
will be taken up by the people OF England
and shouted at the very doors of Parlia.

ment for Ireland is manifest destiny.
Already he who is not blind can see the

hot weather recently. At Winnipeg, it is
stated, the thermometer registered 1859"

from the Montana deserts had a depress-
ing effect We don't doubt it in the least.
"a simoom from Montana deserts" is a
thing that should be lodged by every mar
who has a proper regard for his health.
It's a scorcher, But, by the way, where
are those deserts our Winnipeg friends
speak OFF We cannot recall their exact
localities just now. Montanians would
like to know in case business or pleasure
called them in their vicinity for a desert is
a good thing to skip and simeon is a bet
ter one to let alone.

COPPER AND SILVER.

Matthews & Webb's circular of recent
d tie gives the following weekly summary
| Of prices of these metals: Silver. the circu-
lar says, has shown a slight reaction, but
the best financial authorities agree in con-
s'dering the problem still far from solution.
Treasurer Jordan's report showed that up
to July L. 1886, 1898, 1882 s6 have been
coined in silver dollars, with $40, 900, 900
of small coin. The decline may fairly be
dated back to January l, 1885, when sill
yer touched 491 pence lower than January
1, 1886, AZ pence per ounce to the recent
AZ pence, while the mint authorities calcu-
late the production Of 1885 in the United
States at about $50, OOO, 900.
Copper seems to have put a peg into the
improved price, SO as to hold it there, and
has gained sufficient strength almost for a
still further advance. No further lots of
Lake can be had atNew York below $1O.1O,
for spot delivery, nor less than $40 25 to
$1O.3O for the latter months of the year.
Sales, however, at these figures have been
extremely light, and the advance in reality
is a good deal on paper thus lar, but with
every indication of real strength later; in
other words, the next large contracts are
likely to be made a half cent higher, and a
element of strength is to be noted
in the improved figures of the outside
OF which Ok is the general asking
price, with only small outside odd lots to
be had for less. Chill Bars ranged from
f39 to $50 15s., and closed firm at f39
It's. Cd. Mail advices state that the Lon
don Cape Copper Company" show a net
profit OF $50, 600 for their fiscal year just
ended, while the annual report of our

WILL not the Inter Mountain give our
esteemed independent contemporary the
River Press the benefit OF it's denial Of the
allegations made by the former concerning
the latter's political status? The Press
deserves that much consideration at the
hands of the Inter Mountain. The MINER
intimated that the River Press was O Re-

thus offered that paper we rendered our
apology in the publication of it's denial Of
the outrageous charge,

The slate makers Of the Republican party
OF the county find it nj easy matter to
select men to beat the candidates upon the
Democratic ticket. It is understood they
will run Nell Lowry for Sheriff, Harry
kessier Tor Treasurer and Gen. Charles 8.

able whether these gentlemen will subject
themselves to the modification OF defeat
simply for the honor of filling q vacant
space upon their ticket.

IT ia only a year since we read about the
narrow escape the B~ulgarians had from be-
ing totally swallowed up by a neighborine
State. and of how by superhuman per-
sonal exertions and wonderful skill and
bravery Prince Alexander won various
bloody battles and repelled the foe. Well,
he was not courteous enough to Russia,
and so he had to step down and out. To
an outsider on another continent it seems
much such a case as if Washington had
been deposed by the Americans about THE
middle OF his first term as President.
