Moderation,

We find the folio wing ably written ar

sue Of The Palladium. the college paper
of St. Mary's schoo at Knoxville, written
by one of the senior class:
How carelessly do we listen to the
words OF Saint Paul Let your moderation
be known unto all men," and but little
comprehend the length and breadth and
the amazing depth OF this simple term.
1t is yelled in sombre colors; it has no
attractive lustre OF Its own; and, there
fore, is but little esteemed of men. But
beneath Its dull exterior lie concealed,
health. peace and competence. This I'M
assuming virtue Is 10 body. mind and soul
a philosophers stone, which imparts to
them. both external attractions and ster-
ling worth. Ii develops and perfects
those noble qualities which are the glory
of man, and gently curbs those lower
tendencies which belong to his fallen
state or to his amin al nature.
To the body, it gives health and grace.
1t is universal medicine for physical ills.
1t relieves the druid gerry of life, transform

the feeble tones of an injured Pecksnif
We may say, indeed, that it is preem,
inently the characteristic of the cultured
man.
Though so i'm portant TO the BODY,
it is scarcely less the basis of

power and influence. II gives man
command of himself. as well as COM

him, In great degree, the master of
circumstances. The possession of 1t
distinguishes the true statesman from
the demagogue; the soldier from the
lawless guerrilla; The philosopher from
the emotionalist. 1t Is the mark Of great
minds.
Lastly. moderation Is the essence Of
peace. 1t rescues sorrow from despair;
joy from tumultuous ecstasy. 1t lies In
| lustice, but not in severity; In mercy,
but not laxlty II saves love from idola-

Conduct.
To the Editor of the TRIBuNE--Dear
Sir: You and the people in and around
Great Falls know and are we'll acqualnt-
ed with II. P. Rolfe. am not very much
acquainted with him myself, but would
like to tell the public what | know OF
him. It has been lesson to me and
might be Of some use to others. I came
into this territory in 1883, and one year
ago last July went before II. P. Kolfe
and requested him to make out paper
for me through which might obtain 100
acres Of land by pre- emption. He began
at once to fill out the pre-emption blanks,
which were duly sworn to and signed by
me- He said | was to pay him $8-$3
for the United States and IS as his fee.
| paid him by check on the First Nation
al bank. / then built my house and i'm
proved the ranch in other ways. About
three months ago learned through no.
tary public of Great Falls that Mr.. Lang
horne Of the land Office had not received
any such papers Or my money. How is
that?
Still another fact. Some time ago /
entered the Rolfe office and subscribed
for the we(a)kly for one year and paid
the price in advance. The young man in
the office agreed to send me daily paper
now and then as premium for paying in
advance for the "weakly." The weakly"
arrived all right and the daily once VI
twice month until lately when they be
came quite numerous. This surprised
me g little, but WIS still more surprised
to receive a letter from Fl. p. Rolfe dun
ming me for the daily paper. l ask the
public again how is that? read in the
Rolfe slurs whose use would belttle any
man. I have stated facts. Let the peo-
pie judge Tor themselves of the character

We ask the war veterans of Great Falls,
the members of the G. A. r., to read the
following noble sentiments expressed by

why should any man who was soldier
vote with the republican party? ZAP

the original founders of that party; they
were men of pure and lofty motives. they
may have been inspired, as some thought.
by fanaticism and their efforts at atagitation
brought on the war; but their motives
were just and humane; they were inspir-
ed by the grandest sentiments of human
ity; they wished TO strike the shackles of
the limbs of the slaves, but they never
desired or intended to enchain in the op
preston of the rich and the servitude of
capital their white brethren Of the north
lApplause. These were great and grand
men; they were lovers of the masses OF
the people; there was no sordid stain on
them; they were defenders Of the people,
black and white alike. Applause But
after this war was over the men who had
made immense sums of money out of the
contracts during the war, the men who
had laid the foundations Of their fortunes
on the miseries of their fellow country
men, became the dominant power of the
republican party, and since ther, as you
know, it has been the instrument of the
moniea classes of this republic to oppress
the poor. Applause.
