lands policy has administered a rebuff to

1t is obvious TO all who wish to know the
exact truth that the Free Traders of Eng

The Great Opportunity Of workingmen

The only legal, practical opportunity
which the workingmen of this country
can make available to vote on the question
of their wages, is that which they have
in electing the men who shall possess the
power to fix the economic policy of the
governmental other words, when they
vote for Protection or Free Trade in the
choice of President and Congressman. In
his New York remarks the other day Mr..
Blaine well said that 1.-THE WAGES OF
THE AMERICAN LABORER CANNOT BE
REDUCED EXCEPT WITH THE CONSENT
AND VOTE OF THE AMERICAN LABORER
HIMSELF" In the approaching Septem-
Der and November elections the working
men of Maine can vote on the rate of their
wages. Those who wish to bring the
prices of labor in this country to the
English standard win vote for the policy
and candidates favored by English news
papers and English politicians. Those
who wish the prices of labor to remain
at the American standard will vote for
the candidates who want Protection for
American labor, and whom English Free
Traders oppose. To appreciate the i'm
mense importance of the pending issue
between Protection and Free Trade one
has only to carefully examine the figures
which show the rate of wages under Free
Trade in England and Protection in the
United States. The n. Y. Tribune says,
and we fully endorse the statement, that
the averages of wages in different kinds
of work, az given below, are in every
case obtained by taking the wages reported
in Census Volume No. 20 in the various
States, adding the weekly total of each
kind of work, and dividing by the num-
Der of establishments reporting. The
statements of British wages which follow
are likewise taken from British official
The following gives the average paid
weekly for l02 kinds of work, represent
ing all the important branches of manu-
facture, eight mechanical trades, and
common or unskilled labor in all depart
ments. These statistics thus taken from
the most reliable and authentic sources
do not differ in essential particulars from
those of other responsible authorities,
and therefore may be regarded remark
ably accurate

In earnestly asking the voters of Maine
to examine these solid facts expressed BY
figures to study their cause and their mean
ing, We are performing something more
than partisan duty. We speak entirely
from an American standpoint to American
freemen jealous of their rights and watch
full for their interests. In voting for
American protection and American wag-
es citizens who have been Democrats and
have been Republicans can unite hands
and fraternally cooperate in the election OF
candidates who fairly represent their opin-
ions and wishes, rather than dead issues
and past prejudices. The prices of Ameri.
can wages are the stakes of the present
political campaign.

Right Of Way Granted,

WAsHINGTNN, May 22.-In the house
yesterday the unfinished business was the
motion submitted two weeks ago by Mr..
Bingham Pa) to suspend the rules and
pass the senate bill granting the right of
way through the Grow Indian reservation
to the Billings, Clark's Fork and Cooke
City Railway company. Mr.. Urlson
(Minn.) opposed the bill because another
road had already been projected, and
partly built through the only canyon
which afforded passage across the coun-
try. The effect of the bill he said would
enable set of Wall street SPECTATORS to
come in and throttle an enterprise already
under way, by occupying the canyon to
the exclusion of the other road. Mr..
Toole (Mont.) also opposed the measure
at present on the same grounds. He ask
ed that 30 days be allowed the Clarke's
Fork and Cooke City Railroad company
to negotiate bonds before the house at
tempted to act upon the bill. The bill
was passed. Ayes 112, nays 49,

To the Members of the Montana Press:
/ The date OF the 4th annual meeting ot

fixed for Thursday, June 2S, 1888, and !
take this opportunity of requesting all
members and those engaged in the editor,
lal departments of the press of Montana
to make such preparations as will enable
them to answer to the roll call in the citv
OF Great Falls at 10 M, on said day. The
Importance of the fraternity coming to-
gether, becoming better acquainted and
| deliberating upon matters of their mutual
interest cannot be too highly estimated.
Having labored incessantly in the sanctum
for twelve long months, it is meet that
they lay aside the pencil and business
cares and enter into the spirit of this oc-
casion, the personal enjoyment Of the so
ciety of each other. Ample transportation
arrangements are in course of preparation
and will be so perfected that none need
stay away, and as for the work at home
give the scissors to the foreman and the
editorial chair to the 'devil,' who will
say the editor is on Clark" and get ont
the best paper OF the year, while you join
in the recreation.
Arrangements have been made for en-
tertainlnent in the way of letters, papers
and addresses which will occupy Dor.
tion Of the time. The entire assembiage |

terprising city Of Great Falls, who, be
