OPPORTUNITIES.

America is pre- eminently the land
OF opportunities. If a man fails to
strike it rich in one place, he easily
moves to another. The American is
not a defendant OF the clam. Pro-
gress and change is his motto. Are
you located in the far North, where
drouth has made short crops for a
few years, where collections are slow
and business dull? Uncle Sans
domain to the East, South and West
is boundless one, and you may
perhaps retrive your fortunes by a
change OF location. Whenever you
do determine to move, remember
that "The Burlington is the great
through line from the Northwest to
all points, and buy your tickets that
way. Your local agent can supply
you, or write to w. J. C. Kenyon,

The Capital Item Baton Rouge,
La. criticises the declaration OF a
Louisiana Congressman that the
sub-treasury plan is unconstitu-
tional:
Col. Boatner's reasons for believ-
ing these measures are unconstitu-
tional may be all right from a legal
standpoint, but it looks little
odd that bonded warehouses should
be provided for whiskey, and the
Government should be made Sc
curator for national banks without
this question of unconstitutionalit
affecting them.

The Standing Enterprise (Rusk,
Tex. says:
When you think of about S,OOO,-
600 farmers laboring to build the
best government in the world, and
then count the wondrous Indifference
manifested toward them as an indus
trial element, do you not wonder at
their conservatism, their patience,
and forbearance? No people have
exhibited more manly fortitude.

National Economist
The last two issues of the GREAT
WEST (St. Paul, MINI. have devoted
much space to clearing up the fogs
about the wheat market, which it
does in splendid style. 1t effectually
settles the fact that the western far
mers had a big grievance against
the elevators, and shippers of wheat,
it's expose being complete. The
GREAT WEST says:
A large number Of the country
merchants are continually harping
about "carrying" the farmer! Carry
ing his credit is probably understood
by this. Now this howl is overdone.
There are but few farmers receiving
credit for over three months at the
country stores, and a ninety-day
time is no unreasonable period at all.
Of course there are a few old scores
on every book.

The Weekly Union (Luray, Va.):
The money kings have contract
ed the currency of this land of ours,
until there is not money enough left
in circulation to do the business of
the country, and the wage workers
are fast beginning to realize the
great injustice of Congress loaning
the nations credit to bondholders
at l per cent and then they, through
the banker and loan agent, lend it
to the people at from 10 to 25, and
sometimes so to 100 per cent.
Let every alliance, in considering
an indepenent party movement bear
in mind that the GREAT WEST would
want to issue $4,000 copies a week
and it wonld cost $3.50 a week to
do so!

late for this week, but we can assure
our friends that Mr.. Donnelly and
DR.. Fish would "take the field as
early as possible. At least we can

composing the delegation from this
state. There was a time when states
manship was OF slow growth; to-day
it is thrust upon the individual.
A short time ago Oar Hall was a
receiver of public monies at Benson,
a man considered mediocre. A few
years ago John Lind was tolerable
lawyer at New Ulm. To-day some
consider that he is the only man in
the district who could give tone and
prominence to the people of this
district; in short, the only man in
the district that can represent it's
people in congress.
There are men to-day operating
corn planters all over the prairies OF

pointers on craftsmanship, and who,
had they the chance, would fittingly
represent the district, and cause
their names to be known to the utter
most limits of their congressional
territory.

Monopoly advises the farmers and

The GREAT WEST of St. Paul,
MIMI, made the remark that the
wheat combination were making 20
cents bushel on wheat shipped
to Liverpool, whereupon Mr.. Pills
bury, the great -four man of Mime
apolis, thinking that Dr. Fish, editor
OF the GREAT WEST, knew but little
and supposed it was a guess by the
doctor and therefore offered to give
any man $4,000 who would ship a
cargo of wheat to Liverpool and
make a profit of five cents per bushel.
The editor of the GREAT WEST ac-
cepted the challenge. but Mr.. Pills
bury flew the track. But the doctor
went on and absolutely covered Mr..
Pillsbury entirely over with proof
that they make even more than 20
cents bushel and shows that Dakota
and Minnesota have been robbed of
many thousand dollars-Clark Co.
Democrat.
The New York Sun relates a cir
cumstance which goes to show that
the western farmers are not the only
class which are feeling the stress OF
the times in this country. A prom
inent merchant OF New York recently
inserted in a number OF papers an
advertisement stating that he de-
sired to obtain the services of an ex-
perienced business man to begin at
a salary OF $12 a week. He received
over two hundred answers, many OF
which were from persons who gave
the best OF references and who had
held responsible positions in first
class houses. Some of the men
stated that they were absolutely in
need of the necessaries Of life. This
circumstance plainly indicates the
presence of an influence in the COM
mercial world that is hostile to the
happiness and prosperity of the peo-
pie. There is evidently something
with the country and it is not en-
couraging to know that the present
congress DrODOSeS to make IT. worse

Another excellent feature of the

CsIsbrase with Yaiensians the Result
OF ahe Great boat asacs-High Carni-
val In This Cisy Last Night.
The city looked rather destitute all day
yesterday, and the scene at the college and
around the campus was far from being an
animated enc. The absence Of q great many
people was noticeable. New Haven was
never more largely represented ct any Yale
Harvard boat-race than IL was ct New Lon
don yesterday.
In the morning the steamer Elm City left
Belle dock with fully eight hundred people
on board for the scene of the race. It WAS
distinctlya Yale crowd from top to bottom,
and the college colors were displayed by
nearly every one on board. The steamer sr-
rived home about 1880 O'Clock last night.
The passengers were all highly elated over
the victory, and oil pronounced 1t great
race.
The Union depot was thronged at train
time with people who wore bound for New
London. An occasional glimpse of red color
coald be seen as the trains rolled In and out
but the prevailing color was blue and 1t had
the call by long odds. A number OF pretty
girls In stylish summer costumes added 9
charm to the gay scene. The ladies were all
alive with excitement over the race and they
chartered away like magpies. There were the
staid old graduates, the youngster who
| thinks of nothing but Yale, and hundreds o.
| New Haven citizens, who all carried the blue
ribbon. The regular train over the Shore
Line road at 8 O'Clock carried large mum
Der Of passengers. The FIRST special left al
8:10 and was made up of eight cars. Thil
was followed ten minutes later by anothcl
train composed of eight more cars. Tho 3:5l
express also carried number of people OF
their way to see the races.
The scene in front of the New Englani
Telephone company's building on Cour
street was lively one. Fully fifteen hun

from the Helena INDEPENDENT

A direful accident to six men on handoar
near East Helena short time ago was only
averted by the intelligence of dog. A large
Newfoundland dog was In the habit of fol-
lowing the men ON their daily trip down the
road, and like all dogs was ambitious to keep
mp withFits MASTERS. One evening whom the
men were returning from work the dog took
the lead and there was spirited race. The
animal was only short distance ahead, and
instead Of leaving the track and falling In the
rear, kept going at q great speed.
The men never thought of danger till the
car rounded q curve and came suddenly upon
a long trestle with the dog no more than
twenty feet ahead. He did not realize the
danger until he came to the trestle. The men
were horror-stricken and expected to be
thrown from the track and perhaps killed.
The intelligent dog knew the danger instant
ly. It fattened itself between the ties, and
the car passed safely over without ruf1tng q
hair. Il was the most remarkable piece of
intelligence ever exhibited by a dumb ani-
NAL. It could not go forward; to stand still
was death to the dog a. we'll as men. Il was
