The semi-weekly tribune. [volume] (Great Falls, Mont.) 1890-1891, 1890-05-10

As might be expected the Herald de-
clines to approve the Independents pro-
posal that a new election Of representa-
tives be held in Silver Bow county. Since
the recent election for mayor the Herald
keeps shy Of an appeal to the people. 1t
says:
If the Independent is waiting to hear
nfahsensi1Teth"-paf,t1 6Uw COUNTY n
might as well prepare to wait a lorg
time. Men whose title has been pro-
nounced good by the highest authority
would be very simple indeed to humor
an opponent by resigning. Whether or
not the five from Silver Bow resign is
not even a matter of the slightest import
ance. Our supreme court and the United
States senate, the best and highest au-
thority in the country, hold the certif-
Gates OF the state returning board as the
best legal title to these seats, till the house
decides for itself.
The Herald may yet have reason to be
thankful for the democratic, offer. If
the democrats acquire control of the sen.
ate at the coming election, we hope that
the senate will recognize only the lawful
members returned from Silver Bow
county. 1t will not, we trust, recognize
for a moment Bray and the other four
who were not elected.
A republican lawyer said to US the
other day that the Silver Bow canvassing
board had no right to throw out the votes
OF Precinct "a. Yet the only claim that
fraudulent five have is based upon the re-
lection Of these votes. When the rest
Of Montana, following the example of
Helena, Butte, Missoula and Anaconda,
rebukes the Silver Bow fraud, the Herald
md the party it represents will find that
the technicality on which it relies is
weak and profitless. There is a limit to
the public patience as the Herald will
find out.

LOTS At Low PRICES.

Good Opportunities for Investors with
Moderate Means.
The Impression having been given. out
that there are no cheap lots for sale in
Great Falls, we would respectfully an
nounce to the public that we have a large
number Of choice residence lots at prices
from W to four hundred dollars each,
on the following terms: One quarter
cash. and the balance in three equal pay
ments, due in one, two aud three years,
with interest at seven per cent. per an.
mum, payable semi-annually. These lots
are located but a few minutes walk from
the business center, are near to the school
houses and have the advantage of the
city water works. The size of all lots In
Great Falls are 50x15O feet. Low prices
and easy terms of payment, make our lots
especially desirable to men of moderate
means. CHAs. M. WEBSTER,
Secretary Great Falls Power &
Townsite Company.

THE Washington correspondent of the

lowing to his paper, showing the friendly
~ feeling of the administration towards
silver: ut is stated in inside circles that
President Harrison has indicated that
wlde-open silver legislation will not meet
with the executive approval, and that
any measure which throws down the
bars,' as one of his friends puts it, will be
mel by a prompt veto. My informant,
who is in a position to speak by the card,
says that while the administration thinks
the house caucus bill radical, it can be
enacted into a law, but that any measure
providing for unlimited coinage, or in

GOVERNOR HILL in q message to the

GOVERNOR HILL in a message to the
New York legislature recommends a
change in the method Of deciding con-
tested elections in the case of members
of the general assembly. He suggests
the passage of q concurrent resolution
submitting to the people IN amendment
to the state constitution which will take
from the house the power Of passing up
on the election Of its own members and
confer the jurisdiction upon the courts.
He will also recommend such action on
the part of the legislature as is likely to
bring the subject to the attention of con
gress, with a view Of securing ultimately
q similar amendment to the federal con
stltution. "This," says the governor,
"would compel contests to be decided up
on their merits and relieve the legislative
bodies from a standing temptation to do
INJURIES" This is an innovation not
likely TO be accepted soon.

DEMOCRACY AND SII

Mr.. Leach, the director of the Mint,
gives some interesting facts relative to
Montanu's great staple, silver. He says
in his report that the total amount OF sill
yer purchased for the coinage of the sill
yer dollar from March /, 1873, to Decem-
Der 81, 1889, was 271 ,632, SOB fine ounces,
costing 1891, 47O,956, and average cost Of
$1.08.13 per ounce fine. The coinage of
silver dollars for the same period was
$3.50, 93S, 0O1 pieces. AT the average cost
of silver for the whole period the cost
value of the silver dollar Is % cents. The
average price Of silver In London during
the calendar year was 93.5 cents per fine
ounces, and the average price Of fine bars
of silver IN New York during the same
period was 93.8 cents. The highest price
reached during the year was 44ss pence,
and the lowest price was Al Is 10 pence.
The shipments OF silver to India during
the year aggregated $4o,OoO,OOO, and the
amount realized from the sale of Indian
council bills about 81, 100000.
The disbursement of this large sum
1921, 47O, 958-among the silver producers
Of the United States $ due to the Bland
bill, which was brought in by a democrat
and passed by a democratic house.
Democrats freely conceds that some re-
publicans aided in passing the
Bland bill and in keeping
its provisions intact. They deny
distinctly the assertion that the rise in
silver is due to the republican congress
and the republican administration. Were
it not for tue Bland bill silver would be
"A drug in the worlds markets. 1t would
never have received the consideration
which French and British bi-metalist'
now accord II. Bismarck's gold policy
would have had full play and our silver
would have been sent abroad at low
| prices to enrich India and other silver
standard countries.

SMALL stocks at the mills but no high.
or prices for wool, is the burden of the
reports from the Boston wool market.
Manufacturers are buying for immediate
consumption, but owing to the depressed
condition of the wooden goods industry
the price of wool is not expected to ad-
vance. 1t would lie otherwise il manu-
facturers were making good profits on
their products. Then they would turn
out goods in greater quantity and would
compete more actively with each other
for the raw material. 1t is predicted,
however, that the demand for wool will
be steadier than it was last year when
speculation was rife and the buyers out
here were busily engaged In "scooping"
each other.

THE prospects of fair prices for wool
continue to improve. According to the
Bradstreets' "the stocks of wool IN the
various markets are becoming very much
broken, and the natural consequence is
seen in trmer prices, though the demand
is not extraordinary. The supplies of
desirable wool, in fact, are greatly re-
duced, and from present indications the
new clip will come forward at full values.
Purchasers of considerable amounts Of
material have been made at Boston and
there is a fair demand in this city and
Philadelphia. 1t Is nevertheless-true that
much Noolen machinery is idle and the
manufacturing outlook is discouraging.
The heavy rains have hindered shearing
in Texas. At San Francisco competition
for all desirable selections is active. Fine
fleeces are q fraction higher in the Bos-
ton market and pulled woods are doing
better"

The mayor stated that he knew George
Treat intimately and could recommend
him as an honorable, intelligent, trusty
man who would do his duty under any
circumstance, but the board refused to
accept that assurance and the nomination
was rejected by a vote of 5 to 2. Alder

the confirmation. They are both demo
