The well known house of Fenno Broth
ers u Chids who we hope will be repre-
sonted in the Great Falls market this sea-
son, give some timely information in a
recent circular. They say, in effect, that
the manufacturers have enough wool and
that the dealers are not forcing sales.
expecting that prices will remain un-
changed and that they will be able to
sell all they have on hand before the new
wool comes to market As to the demand
for goods, the firm say that commission
houses appear satisfied with the seasons
work. Regarding the Mills tariff bill
they observe that "the outcome of the
tariff controversy is watched and waited
Tor with the keenest interest, but all indi-
cations continue to point to the conclus-
ion which we reached some time since,
and which was simply that no decis-
ion would be reached until after election"
They also state that "very large guam

. The party vote has also gone on in
creasing until it would take genuine
prophet to determine how the two great
parties stand at present In Helena alone
there has been an increase of 74S votes
since last year. In 1884 democrats and
republicans were almost neck and neck.
Mr. Toole winning by only 1919 majority
In 1856 party lines were not closely OBJ
served in northern Montana on account
of the railroad question which the people,
very properly, deemed of more import
ance than politics, pure and simple. The
party vote for delegates since 1864 has
been as follows:

injuring our manufacturers, and, indi-
rectly, our wool growers, much of it be-
ing undervalued. Until remedy is dis
covered for this and other similar Frauds
it is impossible to estimate the harm be-
ing done to our industries, but a great
deal of the existing depression in manu-
featuring and wool growing can be def
nitely attributed to the sins of importers
and the Inconsistencies of the tariff"

FACTS FOR POLITICIANS,

This being presidential year we ap.
pend foa the benefit of the politicians as
well as the public in general some statis-
tics which may be studied with profit by
men of all parties. The first table gives
the vote since 1864 and shows steady
growth since 1878 when Montana emerg-
ed from the placer mining era to be-
come an important state, although con-
gress has so far failed to say so:
Great Falls tribune. [volume] (Great Falls, Mont.) 1887-1890, 1888-04-07

1t is as we expected. Mayor Sullivan
denies in the River Press "having given
utterance to any such sentiments as are
attributed to him regarding the town Of
Great Falls or its prospects" The hide
pendent should not he so ready to ascribe
disparaging remarks to people who visit
Helena. 1t is noteworthy that its ere
cording angels" never meet anyone who
has good word to say for this city.
They manage to be out of the way when
such people are in town. But we can
stand it as well as the Independent.

Coal is king, but his kingdom is more
secure when there is water and water
power at hand as in Great Falls. The
important part which coal plays may be
judged from the intention of Claus
Spreckles to build sugar refinery at
Philadelphia which will be conducted
with capital of $5,O00,0Oo and have a
plant worth $3,0O0,0OO. Baltimore bid
for this refinery but the cheap coal at
Philadelphi was decisive in favor of that
city. In like manner when people deter
mine to build factories and conduct them
on purely business basis they will come
to Great Fall where the saving In the
cost of fuel will in itself be great.

Republican

AS may be judged from the above
statement the majorities We're light and
the contest was sometimes decided by
personal popularity rather than by a
strict party vote, rendering the situation
still more obscure for the practical poll
tlcians. The majorities for delegate
since 1864 have been as follows:

THE GREAT SMELTER.

The mammoth works for reducing and
refining the gold and silver ores, now in
process of construction at Great Falls,
will be the largest and best equipped in
the world They will be built in four
sections, each complete in itself The
first will be in full running order by Oc-
tober LIST Of this year. Work upon the
second will be commenced at that time,
while the former is in operation. Such
will be the order of procedure until the
entire plant is completed in
volving an expenditure of over
$2,0OO,0O0. Some idea of the magnitude
Of this great work may be had from the
following description of one section:
Number of blast furnaces. ........... S
Number of roast furnaces ............. 20
Amount of building brick ....... 100000
Amount OF tire brick. ............... 100000
capacity per day tons OF ore .......... 200
Number of cars per day flor Transports
tom ..;.".;.:.. ...;.....:............ 80
Men employed in construction. ........ go
Men employed in operating ............ $50
The blast furnace building will be 1863
by 100 feet. The rooster building will be
4OS by 100 feet The sampling works will
be 100 by 100 feet. The engine house will
be 100 by s. feet. One smoke stack will
be 80 feet square at the base; $50 feet
high and 70 feet square at the top. An
other smoke stack will be % feet square
at the base, 1876 feet high with 10 feet
square tlue.
The benefits to accrue to Great Falls
from such an institution as this may
readily be discerned. Around it will
gather other works of similar character
some of equal magnitude. 1t is expect
ed that plant for treating copper ores
will be established here within short
time.

The Dakota liar appears to flourish
luxuriantly at Pierre. 1t was from there
that the false story emanated that a dark
cellar, filled with human skeletons had
been found at the house of halfbreed.
OF the same kind is the recent false re-
port that school teacher, Miss Fellows,
was about to marry the Indian Chaska.
This species of Dakota liar should be ex-
terminated promptly.

Presidential year has begun to show
itself already in the increased registra-
ton. Although Montana has no electoral
vote, the Helena list increased from .937
names last year to 1855 for the recent
election. Sixty-tive foreign residents
also Joined the noble army of voters. At
Great Falls the relative increase in voters
will exceed that in Last Chance gulch.

WESTERN Factories.

New England will find If she plays Il
selfish part on the tariff question, that the
northwest and notably Montana can look
after its own interests. There are some
manufacturers in the east who are atflict-
ed with the anglo mania as badly us the
| dudes in New York, who walk and talk
and dress in English style. Such manu-
| facturers indulge in dreams of worldwide
commerce. "'Throw down the BARRIERS"
they say, land we will soon control the
Mexican, South American and European
markets. Give us free wool and we will
soil with the British manufacturers"
Fortunately there are some level-headed
manufacturers who are not carried away
by this craze for foreign trade. They
know that we imported in the last fiscal
year wooden goods to the amount of S44,-
100000 on which the duties amounted to
81 per cent. They know that free wool
would not reduce the price Of raw mater
ial so low as to enable them to compete
ia foreign markets with manufacturers
who are able to sell goods i'll our own
markets and pay the high duties
named. They know also that free wool
will undermine the tariff on woolens and
thus throw open the tioodgates to the
surplus products Of foreign factories,
where labor is underpaid and capital
is so abundant that the British |
government is about to reduce the inter
est on consols to "a per cent, and ulti-
mately to 215 Knowing all this, wide
awake eastern manufacturers will not |
allow home industries to be broken down
in order to clutch at the phantom of for
eign trade.
The time is ripe for a great industrial
movement throughout the west. The
people will favor it, the railroads will
aid it, and eastern capitalists will readily
provide money for it. The interests of
the country demand a wider industrial
distribution. If some New England
manufacturers succeed in rendering wool
growing improbable, let us see what we

 "But you will not believe that she is his wife, and 'tis easy, therefore, for their poor letters to make thee think they have sinned."
 "Leave mel" he cried sternly, for he feared the anger which his wife's obstinate advo- cacy was kindling in him.
 She went away quickly, smothering her sobs until the door was closed. Then, at her bedroom window, she planted herself to watch for Jenny's return.
