AMERICAN BREADSTUFFS.

The United States have been the gram
ary of the world, and to this fact have
they owed their great prosperity. The
busy and crowded nations have looked
to America for their breadstuffs and the
bounty of nature has made us rich, but
our riches have made us h naughty. The
United States, by their prohibitive tariff,
have refused to buy of the world, think
ing that the world must come to their
shores for meat and bread. The prohib-
tive tariff of the United States has iso-
lated the United States and has taught
the nations to 60 elsewhere for their sup
plies of bread and meat 1t is well that
it is so, for no country should have it
within its power to put its own price on
the necessaries of life The United States
had this power for many years, but they
used it not wisely. They have been will
ling that the nations should buy their
surplus wheat and beef. but they have
not been willing that the countries buying
that wheat and beef should dispose of
their products in American markets with
out they wouldlpay forty or sixty per cent.
of the price of those products for the
privilege of trading in American markets.
What has been the consequence? The
different countries that have been ac
customed to look to the United States
for their wheat and beef have looked
elsewhere for these, and they have
found them. To show that this
is the case there is no need to

call in the laws of political economy, but
merely to refer to the report of Senator
Cullom. That report, as telegraphed,
says that "the outlook is not good for the
United States to ship breadstuffs in un-
limited quantities throughout the civilized
world, and that the principal markets,
both for bread and meat. must henceforth
be sought at home" If the United States
must henceforth seek for markets for
both their bread and meat at home, what
will they send forth to the markets of the
world? Egypt and India can supply,
and very largely are supplying, the world
with raw cotton. The petroleum fields
of Russia are as extensive as those
of the United States, and are fast being
developed, SO that in these matters this
country is no longer the only source Of
supply. The farmers and ranchmen of
the United States are informed through a
Congressional report that henceforth they
must seek at home market for their
products. This should make them recog-
nize the beauty and benefcence of pro-
hibitive tariff which makes them pay
from forty to sixty per cent. more for their
manufactured goods than they would
otherwise be compelled to, that the capa-
cious mouths of monopoly may be filled.
The tariff gives a bounty to the manufac-
turer, and why should not the Govern
ment give a bounty to the farmer and
ranchman? Commerce is a coy mistress,
and she has to be gently wooed before
she bestows her favers, and protection is
to her gross affront.

THE UTAH & NORTHERN.
Probable Completion of a Branch
Road From Dillon to Helena.

A Helena Herald reporter recently in
terviewed Mr.. j. M. Page of Twin Bridges
concerning the work lately done on the
proposed branch of the Utah & Northern
from Dillon to Helena. Mr.. Page, who
is competent engineer and a resident of
the section where the work was carried
on, gave some information concerning it
which may be of interest to readers of
| the er-Mountdi7a and to the people of
Montana generally. Mr.. Page said that
about the first of last December Mr.. Ray,
| chief engineer of the Utah & Northern,
with large force of men, commenced
grading for roadbed between Dillon and
Glen station. The work was continued
for three weeks, when the force was with
| drawn. During that time the sum of
ST., 200 was expended, and five or six
miles of standard road bed were graded.
This was done, it appears, simply as rep
resentation work, as the company was
compelled if it wished to hold its charter
to do certain amount of work on the
line each year. No work was done in
Jefferson canyon, although chief engineer
Ray made an inspection of it with the
view of doing some In this CANYON the
company has expending $130,OOO in grad
ing road bed, and has quite section
there ready for the ties. AS it was graded
for narrow guage road it will be widened
to standard guage when the time ar
rives for laying the track. Mr.. Page says
the settlers are not averse to the road,
as they are in need Of railroad facilities,
and will do all in their power to further
the completion of the line, by donating
right of way, etc.
The Herald thinks that the Utah &
Northern branch from Dillon to Helena
will be completed during the present
year as it understands the charter for the
road will expire at the beginning of 1887,
and that the company will not apply for
its renewal without performing consider
able work upon the road. It also says
that the Northern Pacific company is
making every effort to enter Butte, but it
is at the same time desirous of prevent
ing tine Union Pacific from coming to
Helena. 1t is not very probable, how
ever, that such one-sided agreement
will be arrived at, and if the former sue
ceeds in establishing railroad connection
with Butte, the natural consequence will
be the rapid following on the part of the
Union Pacific with its branch road to
Helena.

"CURIoUs how ones feelings get blunt
ed by the sight of blood and horrors, !"
says Sir Charles Wilson, in his new mar
rative of the Nile expedition. "There
was one strange incident. An unwound-
ed Arab, armed with spear, jumped up
and charged an officer. The officer grasp
ed the spear with his left hand, and with
his right ran his sword through the Arabs
body; and there, for a few seconds, they
stood, the officer being unable to with
draw his sword until man ran up and
shot the Arab. 1t was living embodi-
ment of one of the old gladiatorial fres-
Goes at Pompeii. 1t did not, strange to
say, seem horrible; rather, after what
had passed, an everyday occurrence. I
used to wonder before how the Romans
could look on at the gladiatorial fights;

THR GREAT PoI1T1oAL ISSUE.

1t is not a manufactured Issue, but
the inevitable 0utgrOwth of progress
and the necessity of adapting govern
mental processes to changing C0ndi-
tiOns. On one side of 1t are arrayed
those who find their profit in sustaining
abuses whereby the few are enriched at
the expense of the many and whereby
what are really class privileges are
maintained. On the other side are these
who are awakening to q sense of how
they are being burdened and realizing
their claims to better state Of affairs.
1t may be said that this Is no new issue;
that II has long existed. This is true;
but it possesses significance which 1t
never did before and which C0mpels at
II ntion. The people see more clearly In
to the nature Of the issue, and there is
no mistaking the evidences of the dis
content which naturally prevails.
The wonderful growth Of the country
as well as the interests Of the many call
for q publication In p-blic affairs. r.
reRularities In small business may be
passed over as of little consequence, but
Irregularities in vast establishment
cannot be tolerated. There Is too much
involved to permit of them. 1t is 80
with our Government. The Civil Ser
vice Reform movement must continue
until 1t accOmplishes Its Legitimate end
and eradicates the official element of
the spOils system. The greater evil is
the control Of the interruptions rich
over legislation involving the obtaining
Of unesrned subsidies from the Govern.
ment directly and the power Of wiring
ing tribute from the masses. ITregu-
larities in taxation, both directly levied
and through the tariff, call for cOrrec
tiOn. The people can no longer be de
luded into the belief that there can be
any honest acquisition Of single for
tunes of many millions solely thrOugN
public franchises. These corporation
abuses and the whole mass of kindred
evils rendered possible through corrupt
ing the representatives Of the people
ald the conduct of elections must be
ended.
Here we have the general character
of an issue outlined which cannot be
avoided. And looking at the records of
the two parties In the last Congress 1t
Is not difficult to see what sides of the
issue the Republican and Democratic
parties are respectively taking. The
very composition of the Republican
Senate ought to be a revelation suffl
riently plain of itself, but with the tale
of subsid es supported, fOrfeitures of
unearned land grants resisted, reforms
In the land department checked, Con-
grassion railroad attOrneyships sustain
tained, and more still of bad repute, Its
becomes absolutely unmistaka- |
BILE. The Democratic Congressional |
record is In the direction, and the gen.
eral tone of the State Democratic plat
forms recently adopted Is in the line Of |
the policy thus indicated.

A BLACK BRUTE,
Brought to Jail From Wilmot For a Hell
nous Crime.

Brought to Jail From wilmot For a Hell
nous Crime.
A coal-black cOlored man, 38 years old,
was brought to the County jail this
morning from Wllmot and locked M,
charged with the heinOus crime Of as
saulting two little girls with intent to
rape. For want Of knowing his true
name, the customary legal appe.lation
In such cases of John Doe was given
him on the mlttimus.
The crime was committed at WilmOt
yesterday afternoon. While two little
girls named 0da B. Getty, aged six,
daughter of MIR. John T. Getty, and
Daisy Bose, aged 8, daughter of Henry
Bose, were playing by The roadside the
negro fend made an assault upon them
with an intent to rape, but was frustrat-
cd In his hellish design by the approach
Of q man driving wagon.
The wretch fled, but was captured
after dark in barn which he had
crawled into. He was Immediately ar.
raigned before Justice Speaker on the
charge of assault with intent to commit
rape. He plead guilty to the charge,
and was bound over to Common Pleas
Court. The feeling against the wretch
among the citizens of Wilmot was so
intense last night. that 1t was feared an
attempt would be made to lynch him.
One man went so far as to provide rope
and get 1t ready, and the negro un-
dOubtedly owes the preservation OF his
life to the fact that no leader stepped
forward to head the lynching party.
When asked his name at the Ill this
morning by a DEMOCRAT reporter, he
said 1t was Shields Moore, and that he
came from Cleveland. The man Is very
dull both In speech and appearance, and
does not In the least realize the enOr-
nifty of his offence.
