THE SUN" ON SILVER.

The New York SIN has always been an
able and fearless advocate of the free coin
age of silver. In speaking of silver money
the SIN, in a recent issue, says: "What-
ever we have said in behalf of silver mon.
ey has been from honest conviction and
directly against our own pecuniary inter-
est. We know very we'll that the estab.

being unpopular with creditors and bond.
holders, will lead to higher prices for pa
per and other supplies, higher wages for
our employees, and no higher returns from
sales and subscriptions, But we also know
that it is demanded by justice and good
policy, and will in the end promote the

MONrANA's CHANCES FOR STATE.
HOOD.

Progressive and aggressive Montantans
will watch the fate Of the bills introduced
in Congress providing for our admission
into the Union as State with much In.
terest. At present it looks as though Con-
gress will have to admit South Dakota to
Statehood. In the event Of the admission
of South Dakota, it is quite probable that
Montana and Washington Territories will
also be admitted. Their admission would
be but an act Of justice. The admission OF
these Territories is favorably commented
on BY the press Of the East and West.
Many Of the leading journals urge their
admission. In referring to the bills for
the admission of Montana as State che
Minneapolis Tribune says: "Montana
has the honorable ambition to be a State,
and might have its desire gratified without
detriment to any interest. and with advan.
tage in many ways. In 1880 its popu'a'
ticn was barely 10000; but it has increased
until it is now somewhere between Ioo,.
600 and 10000; and rapid and centin'
uous growth is certain. The Territory
already has an assessed valuation Of about
$sooooooo, and its great mineral, forest
grazing and agricultural resources contain
the promise OF wealth. Two years age
