GREAT Falls cordially welcomes the
Rocky Mountain club and would be glad
il the members thereof would make this
city their home. Our people will ap-
preciate the learning of DIR. Wenchell
and his friends young and old. As for
the ladies, our folks. particularly the
young men, will agree to love, honor and
obey them. If that will not suffice, we
will promise them the Giant spring and
all the cataracts OF the Missouri, if they
will only consent to remain and brighten
by their presence the lives of our now
cherries bach elors. Our people APP
preciate greatly the good will which the
tourists have manifested in staying here
and we hope that they will receive
agreeable impressions of this city and its
picturesque suburbs.

In special report on Montana, the
Dunn mercantile agency "rates" this
state pretty high. The report says:
alive stock of all kinds are reported in
good condition. The wool crop is better
in quality than ever before, and conserv-
alive authorities estimate the increase
over 1899 at about 80 per cent; prices,
however, are unsettled, and a large early
movement of the clip is not looked for,
but it is believed fully S3,00O,OOO will be
realized from this years sales. Advices
from the grazing districts indicate
that the beef and mutton supply
for 1890 will exceed that of previous
years, aid that live stock values will this
year reach $55,00O,OOO. Rains have not
been abundant, but have been distributed
and the outlook for general crops is good.
Official reports place the value of the
output of Montana mines, during 1889, at
~*48.654,Oo0. Owing to increased activity
in mining circles, influenced by the ad
vance in price Of silver and copper, and
copper, and the development of new and
valuable properties, the product for 1890
is now estimated at s50.0OO,0O0."

THERE is a moderate rush to Tin Cup,
one of the remotest of the remote camps
of Colorado. The first accounts were
wild, exaggerated reports, which made
old miners smile. The Chicago Inter
Ocean correspondent takes a more sober
view of the discovery and says: "The
situation summed up is this: That if the
streak or vein just discovered is continu
Gus on its dip to the usual extent of con-
tact veins, there is more gold in that
camp than any discovered since the days
of the Pixies Peak excitement" This
report leaves 1t all to conjecture, for the
find is plainly nothing more tim a pros
pect. ,tT

people or burst. The 1900 which her
political enumerators made out gave the
boomers a shock from which they have
not yet recovered. 1t is proposed now to
throw Speer overheard. The Lndepen.
dent says: "The citizens of Helena are
prepared to dispense with Mr.. Speer's
unwilling and inaccurate services, and at
shall be satisfactory to themselves and the
truth" Is not the Independent some
what rash In promising that the people
of Helena would pay for any return? As
a rule people prefer to let Uncle Sam
bear such burdens.

A SWELL BY CHANCE

Nine Pittsburg Brothers Work q Novel
Scheme to Dress Well.
Avery popular member of the depart
ment of public safety is noted for the
great variety of his wardrobe especially
in the matter of hats and neckties, and
it has been a source of wonder to his
friends how he managed to follow 80 sue
cessfully in the lines laid down by Berry
Wall, more especially IS his salary, while
good, is not extravaganza, and he is
known to have a horror of running bills,
especially tailors' bills.
On Monday evening he dropped into
Central station, with a particularly lurid
necktie, that put to shame the electric
light and made the glittering brass rail
ing In front Of the captains desk somber
by comparison. He was asked where he
got the object lesson in primary colors,
and in a burst of confidence told the fol
lowing story:
"You see, it's not altogether my fault
I'm wearing this necktie. am of a re-
firing disposition, and it makes me ner-
vous when / pass a young lady on the
street to have her look at this necktie
and then stop and listen for thunder.
But this is the way it is: There are nine
of us boys, and we all live at home.
There is little difference in our size, and
the same hat, collar or shirt will fit each
and every Of us. Now see how 1t
works.
"The first one up in the morning has
the choice of nine outfits. From what
is comparatively an infinite variety Of
clothing he a select that which snits
him best-and he generally does it. II
is a warm, sunshiny day, and he glancee
through the clothing clearing house and
picks out a light suit, patent leather
shoes, a straw hat and a fancy necktie,
probably leaving in their place heavy
winter wear, all splashed with mud.
''The next to arise will take his choice
of the remainder of the clothing, and 80
on down the list, until the ninth and last
gets up, He has no choice. He simply
takes what is left. If he has exceptions
ally good luck he may find a complete
suit, but 1t is exceptional. The proba,
bilities are that each garment represents
a different suit Of widely separated eras

HELENA has set a good example to the
entire state in forming the Hendricks
club. The organizers have chosen an
inspiring name, for the Indiana states
man wa the truest and best type of a
democrat, resembling Jefferson in the
simplicity Of his life and Jackson in his
fearless devotion to principle. The pres
ident Of the club, Hon. Robert B. Smith
has a wide reputation for energy, ability
and fidelity-the three needs of the hour.
The vice presidents, John 7. Murphy
and Daniel Hanley, are business men of
high standing, who will do their work
we'll. The recording secretary, Colonel
Curtis, is a veteran democrat who
will enter the coming cam
paign with patriotic ardor and
will see that the victory won at the char
ter election is followed by decisive uc-
cess in the fall. The other officers and
the executive committee are all earliest
workers. Colonel James Sullivan, who
will be chairman of the executive COM
mittee, is a true and tried democrat whose
counsel will be needed by democrats
throughout the state. The club is in
tended for the local field, but it can be
made of service to the entire state when
the time comes for a general advance
along the whole line. Success to the
Hendricks club!

LII Hung Chang now tries a bluff game
by threatening to exclude Americans
from China if we do not repeal the ex-
clusion act. The Chinese "boss'' may
rest satisfied that this country will not
repeal the law in question. The few
Americans who reside in China are of
more service to that country than to this.
If Chang expels them he may find our
people disposed to exclude Chinese tea
and give the preference to that from
Japan or Assam. By.the-way, where is
the bold foreign policy that the country
expected from Blaine? Even China
dares to talk defiantly to us.

COL, WHEELER ON INDIANS.

Colonel William F. Wheeler Is not
disposed to waste any sentiment on Indi-
ans, dead or alive. In reply to a request
to aid in building a monument to Red
Jacket, the Seneca chief and orator the
colonel says: "When / think of the
many murders committed by Indians
upon unsuspecting- settlers in the early
days of Montana (from 1868 to 1867, of
the murder of over one half of all the
wood choppers along the Missouri river
from Fort Union up to Fort Benton. who
were cutting wood for the large fleet of
steamboats, then bringing immigrants
into Montana (for there were no rail
roads,; of the shooting from ambush of
the lone traveller, the unsuspecting miner,
and the hardy and daring settlers living
miles apart; of the bloody massacres at
Fort Phil Kearney and Clusters battle
fisld and that of Big hole, and of the
thousands of emigrants going from the
states over the plains to California and
Oregon from 1S49 to 1869, the year when
the railroad was finished across the
continent, and all of the treaclery of the
leading Indian chiefs from the first set
clement of New England to the present
day. do not feel like helping to hulld
monuments to either u King Philip, a
Brandt, u Tecumseh, a Little Grow, an
Inkpaduta, a Geronimo, q Sitting Bull, a
Spotted Tail, or even a Red Jacket, or
any other dead indian. l would prefer
to give my money to help the many wild
ows and orphans of noble men murdered
from ambush or slain IN battle by the
treacherous Indian, who still live among
us and mourn their dead; or build mon
uments to our slain who made it possible
for us to inhabit this land of health,
wealth and grandeur"
The colonel writes in his individual
capacity to the New York enthusiasts.

will no doubt endorse the position which
their secretary has taken.

CAMPAIGN CLUBS.

Clubs like that in Helena should be
formed throughout Montana. And when
formed they should engage in active
campaign work. The club which stands
idle deceives the party and betrays the
cause it was formed to serve.
Like soldiers, clubs become efficient by
active work. The executive committee
should meet constantly and regularly.
| Should no one be present but the chair
man he should like a sentinel remain at
his post and issue a call of the house.
After some effort in that way he will
shame the members into attending. If
the chairman is derelict Others members
should take his place and If necessary de"
pose him.
The club itself should hold regular
meetings and render them interesting
These should be business meetings ut
which short talks might easily take the
place OF long speeches. Time should be
devoted to committee reports and to
organization schemes. The club should
procure a list of all the democrats in tile
precinct or district and institute an ac-
tive canvass among them. Electors who
are %"doubtful" or belong to no patty at all
should be the object Of special care. In
the Greeley campaign a politician offer"
ed his services and added: "Reply quick
ly for I may be bought up by the Grant
men," There are many voters, not OF
this mercenary kind, who can be won
over, If approached properly, before
other influences have been brought to
bear on them. Missionary work should
be carried on among them by the young
men of the club, and due record should
be made OF their adherence to the party.
All democratic clubs should be self
sustaining. The expenses should be
light and be betrayed by weekly dues.
Candidates should not lie expected to bear
all the burden of the campaign. Assess.
ments should be levied Oh the party at
large and not on its standard bearers. In
that way ample funds may he raised to
defray all needful expenses. Volunteer
work should be encouraged. Those h
undertake campaign duties from public
spirit do better work than those who are
hired.
In due course plans will be devised for
united action on the part of the clubs. 1t
is non too early to form them. The
Kl%einschmidt circular shows that the re-
publlcans are already at work. We must
not wait until the Campaign opens' and
the nominations are made. The cam
paign opened when two fraudulent sena-
tors were imposed on the people of Mon
