SOMETHING ABOUT SILVER.

Sam Fr0Rcisco E.rdmiaer, Dean: The pas-
sage Of the Bland act put the United
States at thc head OF economic progress.
We kept on when the world was against
us; We are not going hack now that the
world has fallen i'm on our side.

the coinage of silver tn A.u0O.HO u month

1870 hc would be entitled to the support Of

~ Louis Giob"- Drmorraf, Rep: An i'm

Rcagans dcsirs, would inevitably bring

Dearer Republican: The commercial
needs of the west, south, and, indeed. the
whole country. demand an increase i'm the
circulating medium. In order To bring the
circulating medium OF the country up to
what il ought To he and keep pace with
the increase i'm population, IL would be
necessary tn very largely increase the
purchases Of silver, and probably To re-
move all limits upon the amount Of the
coinage.
Senator MorTiH: ! have always been in
favor Of both gold and silver and the main
tcnancc of u safe relation between them.
II is evident that the ultra friends Of sill
yer will attempt to get all the favorable
Legislation they can, which is very proper.
hut ! can hardly think that any very radi-
cal action will be taken. The position
which will occupy the attention Of COLI
gress prominently will he the effort to
enact n bill i'm favor of free coinage. This
will have many advocates. and i'm the
house may have IA majority. hut il il most
likely that by the time the question takes
the shape of joint action it will he i'm a
more. conservative form.

There is n w~ell-known gentleman in

Mr.. Jones. the neighbour, had not the
pleasure of any close acquaintance with
Mr.. Fo4 arty 3 brother. but he felt for Mr..
Fogarty ina his bereavement, and he
concluded that the Ratchet might just

relative. So in n spirit of true Christian
feeling he put ON his black coat and went
to Mr.. Fogarty's brothers. funeral. He
displayed b%ecoIning grief and sorrow, but
he did not have N chance to speak to Mr..
Fogarty. A few days afterward he met
MIR. Fogarty. and went up tn him with out

IT HAS UP.

Early yesterday morning observing
people in Anaconda noticed smoke
curling from the top of the new stack
nj the upper works. Everybody knew
then that the big chimney OH the crest of
the mountain was one Il congratula-
tions were exchanged.
With all possible speed. all the furna-
ces in smelters number one and two
will be connected with the new stack
and the smoke that hitherto has settled
on that portion of the town near the
upper works will be carried over the
hills and far away. The new stack will
afford an immense a. of relief to
the men employed in and about ;lie
works, who have experienced the
greatest discomfort at times from the
presence of the offensive smoke gener-
ated i'm the vast smelters. Health and
comfort will hereafter he greatly ell
HANGED by the use of the enormous tlues
and the stack that crowns the hill.
Internationally. the company itself
will i'm the end derive much advantage
from the ilue I.lOO feet i'm length which
leads from the smelters to the stack
and which will form "a depository for "a
vast amount of valuable dust which
has heretofore fioated away in the air.
The benefit tn the city at large will
he an item of higheSt Importance. Now
that the city is provided with an album
dant supply of excellent water and the
sulphur smoke is carried away. we may
expect to see Anaconda green with
foliage and with thrifty lawns. Smell
ter owns are usually sufferers from the
presence of great volumes of deleter-
ious and d~isagreeable smoke. Forum
ately, the works i'm this city were 81
wisely planned that "a remedy was
within reach. and the public is indebted
to the owners of the works for having
incurred the vast expense that has
made that remedy available. No sus-
picion of smoke will rest on the town
hereafter.

Portuguese republicans are much
elated over the success of the revolu-
ton in Brazil, and an outbreak against
the crown may he looked for in Portu-

some rapid strides these days. and it is

THE KEY QUESTION.

An interesting little slip occurs i'm
the Inter MOUHfuiH's correspondence
from Helena which says that Yale
locks have been put on the doors of the
Legislative hall in Helen and that the
Governor keeps the keys. In the next
paragraph the entertaining correspon-
dence remarks hat 1.-The republicans
hold the key to the situation" Thus il
appears that the Governor has the key
to the hall and the republicans The key
to the situation, according to the repub-
lican idea. TN the other hand. dis
patches indicate that the democrats
hold both sets. In the long run, the
average man would rather know the
combination to the situation than have
the pass key to all the doors i'm Helena.
The key to public confidence il not
made of brass.
There is little merit i'm the row kicked
up over these Helena keys. There is
no state house i'm Montana. The con
%stitutional convention used rooms i'm
h county building II these have
been hired ON occasion for Legislative
sessions. Some days ago the county
commissioners entered into contract
with Governor Toole for the use of
these rooms and general publicity was
Civ e to the fact in the newspapers.
No precedent was at stake i'm the mat
ter. as the territorial secretary was "a
federal officer n no question can be-
raised with regard tn the entire pro-
priety of the Governors course. The
keys are properly i'm his custody and

To Stop Bleeding at the Nose.

The following practical suggestion
by DR.. John Chiene, Professor Of
Surgery in Edinburgh University.
appeared in recent Issue of the Ed
inburgh Medical Journal: In per-
sistent bleeding from the nasal cavity
plugging the posterior mares should
not be done until an attempt has
heen made to check the hemorrhage
by firmly grasping the nose with the
finger and thumb, 80 as completely
to prevent any air from passing
through the cavity in The act OF
breathing. This simple means, if
prrsistently tried. will in many cases
arrest the bleeding. The hemorrhage
persists because the clot which forms
at the rupture in the blood vessel is
displaced by the air being drawn
forcible through the cavity in the
attempt of the patient to clear the
nostrils. If this air is prevented
from passing through the cavity,
the clot consolidated in position, and
the hemorrhage is checked" @

Faces That Draw Money.

In this country, where money is king,
it is peculiarly fitting distinction to
put the heads of our departed great
men on our currency. Everywhere the
most bigoted republicans will carry
General Hancock's picture in their
pockets and prize it highly. But to be
ON a So bill is not the highest distinc-
ton. One might be on a So or even
800. Yet a still higher honor than
this is for a statesman or soldier to have
his features stamped in the corner of q
draft or check. So it happens that
Stanton still draws from the Treasury
all the money used in the War depart
ment, and Amos Kendall draws that
for the Post Office department. All the
money got out of the Treasury depart
ment must be drawn by draft or check.
Each department has an individual
check, and upon this and no other can
its money be drawn. Stanton's head is
stamped on the War department check,
and Kendall's on the Post Office. Chief
Justice Marshall alone can draw money
for the department of Justice, and Sew
ard certiiies to the State department
check. Admiral Farragut draws the
money for the Navy, and Thomas E.
Ewing for the Interior department.
Chase is given more extended authority.
His head is upon the treasurer's dis
bursting check, which must be used by
all disbursing officers in drawing their
money; he gives credit to the per cent.
interest check, and controls the checks
of the Pacific railroad bonds. Dexter
figures on the assistant treasurer's
checks, the interest and the redemption
checks. Hamilton draws the interest
on the 3 per cent bonds, and Seward on
the AS.
