THE LEADING BUSINESS COLLEGE.
In New Quarters and Fully Prepared for .
Successful Seesfou.

In New Quarters and Fully Prepared for .
Successful Ssssfon.
That old and favorite Business College,
quarters, on the corner Ut Main street and
Sixth avenue. Any one who visited the col
lege just after the fro and who should peep
in there tomorrow would be surprised at
the changes wrought. The college occupies
the entire upper floor and all about is seen
the work of the painter, decorator and car
penter. Everything has been thought Of
and the result il that Prof. Englehorn now
has in the Helena Business College the best
of it's kind in the northwest. The furni-
ture is all new, and everything is arranged
SO that the work may be carried on expedi-
tiously and with the most profit to the stu
dent.
That the thorough work of the Helena
Business College isappreciated, 10 shown by
the coming week; but this vii! not tax the
capacity of the college, for there is room
and to spare for lao students. A new class
will be opened tomorrow, designed espec-
tally for pupils of the public school who de-
sire to take course in penmanship and
will be under the direct charge of Prof.
Englehorn, whose reputation as teacher
of writing is not excelled. The professor
will be assisted by Prof. s. H. Baumann.
Practical experience has demonstrated
that the PERRIN system of shorthand is the
best for all-around use, its advantage being
in the fact that once learned it is never for
gotten. Prof. Englehorn, after thoroughly
looking into the various systems, adopted
this for use in the Helena Business college,
because he believed it to be the best, and his
experience with pupils and their success
after leaving the college, has proven he was
right. Since january he has graduated
twelve students in the Pernin system. all of
whom to-day. save one, are occupying re,
business houses. Prof. W. E. Walker, OF
Detroit, Michigan, is in charge of the de-
partment.
In addition to instruction in this system
in the college, lessons are also given by
pail. Practical experience has proven that
sized class, instructed by mail, is now in
successful operation. Those interested
should correspond with the professor on the
subject.
In France it has long been the custom to
teach children from II to Is shorthand,
with the result that in that country there
are numerous boys and girls of II who are
experts. Knowing that Helena children
are as bright as any in the world, Prof. En-
glehorn has determined to start a children's
class in PERRIN shorthand, feeling sure the
result will be an entire success.
The Helena Business College in everything
that goes to make first class institution il
abreast with the best in the country. Every
branch taught in a business college is II
charge of an experienced and competent
teacher, with the result that students from
the college are among the successful ones IN
the various professions. In this issue Will
be found an advertisement of the college
giving some details of its work and plans

"Strictlv Confidential"

Gentlemen OF toil-did you know
that war was imminent-that the
blood-red hand of war was close up
on us? Novel; neither did we. But
of a sudden, by a political fight in
one Of our states it is discovered
that a war-cloud is approaching.
For the first time in the history of
the United States the government is
taking secret means to handle the
army, that is, the skirmishers and
sharpshooters, to the best advan-
tage What for? Is the Duchy of
Bologna going to assault the Amer
lean continent? ooh no, it is to pre-:
vent domestic violence" Read the

The Time has Come

When the makeup OF the GREAT
WEST must be changed. 1t has thus
far been distinctively a Minnesota
journal. 1t has taken up Minnesota
issues. But it's subscription list and
it's influence has spread out until it
has subscribers even in Kansas and
Colorado. We have been seriously
contemplating making it, as it's
name implies, a journal of the
entire west. From this time on it
will give Minnesota news as before,
but all OF it's 'heavy work. will
henceforth be divorced from local
matters. The questions that con-
Germ us here concern the laboring ele-
ment the world over, and the issues
are too great and important to be
overshadowed by individual in
terests.
The great West. [volume] (St. Paul, Minn.) 1889-18??, 1890-06-13

We very much regret to hear that
Mr.. Sprague and Mr.. Furlong are
travelling through the state telling
farmers that the Austin Hail Insur-
ance Company, is the Alliance COM
pany, and the only one. We assure
our friends through the state the
Austin company has nothing what
ever to do with the State Alliance.
Its directors are not a majority of
them members of the executive COM
mittee (as required by the bylaws,
or wereH not as last published. IN
fact, six out OF nine members of
the Executive Committee Of the
State Alliance are also direc-
tors of the minnesota Storm
Association and the secretary
was the elected Superintendent
OF Insurance. Every man of the in
corporators is a member OF the ALI
ance with possibly an exception by
accident) while the Austin company
is made up of lawyers, druggists,
doctors, politicians, country justices
and machine men. That is the differ
ence between the two companies.

We wish to say to our friends
throughout the western states that
this paper is not opposed to indie
pendent political action. 1t is ex-
tremely friendly to it, and will make
extraordinary sacrifices if a ticket is
put up in Minnesota-and will adj
vance the same cause in any other
state. Do not misinterpret our eau
ton. To run campaign under our
miserable system costs money. No
state can manage a ticket without
$40, OOO-unless under the Austral-
ian system, when possibly five to
seven thousand may pay those alb
solutely necessary expenses. The
prohibition party used $1,000 in
this state last campaign. But we
say to you, discuss the question
from the sacrificial standpoint. Will
you lay from one to five dollars on
your resolution to fight in this Just
war? Do so and win. Wind is.
cheap-if you can get other people to
do the work! Talk funds and the
GREAT WEST will match the best of
you with financial aid.

be found the full text of the joint rate
bill which has just become a law in
Iowa. The people of Iowa are slow
The great West. [volume] (St. Paul, Minn.) 1889-18??, 1890-06-13

to learn. During the year 1889 the
permanent forces of the railroads in
Iowa were reduced by over five thous-
and men, and operating expenses
were cut down by three quarters of q
million dollars. This reduction was
achieved partly by the reduction in
pay rolls in various departments
and partly (as the Iowa commissions
ers themselves declare) by a decrease
in passenger train service which re-
suited in some instances in public in
conveniences.' Every plan for per-
manent improvement on the railroad
lines in the state,-for depot build
ings in large cities-for Improvement
OF terminals-for safeguard cross
ings-for replacing temporary with
permanent bridge structures-ev every
such plan which had been contem-
plated was indefinitely postponed.
How largely the commercial stagna-
ton which makes Iowa the deadest
and least desirable state in the I'm
ION was due to it's railroad policy,
to the economies above mentioned
and to the withdrawal OF foreign cap
ital from within it's borders, those
who have watched the course of
events there know. How largely the
political CONFUSION there was due to
the same cause is also well known.
But Iowa does not seem to have
profited much by her lessons. The
bearings of the Joint rate bill just
enacted were thoroughly explained
to the legislature by Messrs. Faith
orn, Ripley, Brown and others. Its
injustice and it's folly were demon
strated beyond possibility OF contra
diction and by arguments obvious
and cogent enough for, one would
have supposed, even an Iowan to I'M
derstand. And with their eyes open
and the consequences plainly before
them, they have passed the bill.''

The Pioneer-Press gives the follow
ing as an interview with one of the
Executive Committee, last week..
Suppose" said he, ''that we went
ahead and put a ticket of our own in
the field. 1t would draw about
equally from the Republicans and
Democrats-that is, up to the day of
election. Then the Democrats would
go back into their own camp, and
the Republican forces would be di-
vided up between their own and the
alliance tickets, with the result that
a Democratic governor might be
elected. Then a howl would 90 up
from all over the state that we had
sold out to the Democrats, when. az
a matter OF fact, we had only been
made tools of. But either OF these
charges would be bad enough to
hurt us very materially, and we do
not propose to be used for pulling
chestnuts out of the fire to feed Dem.
ocrats or Republicans on. Undoubt.
edly the alliance will confine itself to
the legislature, and with a good
working alliance majority in the
state legislature we shall be able to
have a little remedial legislation
that will be worth more than all the
governship, and at the same time
will not stir up fight that will give
the alliance a severe setback. The
members, | think, are waking up to
the fact that the Democrats are try.

Remember that in political warfare
to deserve success is the platform
whether you win it at first Or not.

passed by the GREAT WEST at it's
last annual meeting held this morn

farmers voting for what they want
to, and it's nobody's business if they
do.
RESOLVED. That what has any
