To refer to our postal service at the
present time is not unlike that COM
mon reference to horses in Iceland.
Complaints, so loud and so long, come
from all parts of the country that it
can scarcely be said that we have any
postal service at all.
The Republican party, during its
rule from 1861 to 1865, devised the
greatest improvements in mail facili-
ties this or any other country ever
saw. 1t took the service from Demo-
cratic hands when it was much like
the national treasury - remarkable
chiefly for what wasn't in it. During
four years of war it was impossible
to make much headway. The party
was then busy fighting Democrats in
Its front and dough- faces in it's rear.
From 1865 to 1885, Republican
management, foresight and economy
perfected the registry system, so that
instead of it being in danger from
from death at Democratic hands, be-
cause it called attention to valuable
mail which was sure to be stolen, it
was made TO cover all classes Of mail

Fellow Republicans, we're going

SO?
Because we have the best men for

Reduction That Reduces.

The Republican tariff bill proposes
to reduce the revenues on sugar,
which we do not and cannot suffi-
GENTLY produce, from $5S,000,000
year to 500, 1000, 600, and to abolish the
tax on tobacco, which yields annually
$50, 900, 600 of revenue.
The tax on tobacco is of course a
tax. The tariff on sugar is also a
tax, because our conditions of soil
and climate are such that home COM
petition cannot be sufficient to lower
prices. The bill, therefore, if adopt
ed would effect at once a reduction of
$29, ,0G0,000 in taxes, as well as reye-
nue., on these two articles alone,
without injury to any important
home industry.
The working people Of this coun-
try consume 80 per cent of the sugar
and tobacco used. The bill, there
fore, is manifestly in their interest.
1t is bill to reduce the taxes of every
American family, as substantially all
families use sugar and most of them
tobacco. 1t is a common sense meas

Whenever the Democratic idea has
triumphed, we have either gone
backward or stood still. 1t was the
Republican idea that freed the color

established our finances on a firm

everything that has been done during

"The Republican party, my boy,
is the party of progress. 1t is the
party of intelligence, of enterprise,
of experience, 1t has proven itself
capable of graphing with every

The Floods

We learn from reliable parties who
cam from the Teton today that last night
that stream raised six feet in II hour,
and that it had spread out I'VE the valley
and covered the railroad track in several
places between the Teton station and the
bridge.
At the Marias bridge. a mile distant
from the Teton, the ice is piled up against
the bridge, and fears are entertained that
part Of it will be taken out. The grade
at the bridge approach is undermined by
water and a part of it settled, which can
probably be easily repaired by the use
of ties and bridge timbers.
The water both in the Teton and Marias
is said to be rapidly falling today, which
may leave the Marias bridge uninjured.
From private dispatches received today
it Is learned that the passenger train,
west bound, which arrived at Dawes
(Belknap) Sunday night, is still detained
there unable to move on account Of the
condition of the bridges across Milk
river. Milk river at the fifth crossing
was rising slowly this morning and the
bulk of the water was running through
the new channel that had been made for
it when the road was bullt.-Benton Rtaer

Buffalo Robes.

We mentioned a few days ago that
Cans s. Klien, of this city, had received a
small consignment of buffalo robes from
a person who had kept them out Of the
market for the past seven Or eight years
There were fifteen well-drssed, full
haired, whole robes, or head and tall
robes, as they used to be called. We
were informed that they had received an
offer of $40 each for the fifteen robes.
Ten or II years ago the average buffalo
robe was a drag on the market at from
$3.50 to $500, and choice robes from 81
to SO each in lots. What a speculation
there was in buying robes at that time
and holding them? But it is hard to tell
what the future will bring forth, and none
of US invested our loose change that way.

a twenty years practical experience are
contributed toward this end, and no
