HELENA REALTY MARKET.
Business for the Past Week Has
Been Quiet But
Steady.
Promises to Be q
Much Better Month Than
August.
Cho Attractions Of the Seato Fair Have
Had an influence In MakiRD
the Market Quiet

The week has been quiet one in Hell
bna realty circles. The attractions Of the
fair have had, no doubt, an influence in
making the market somewhat dull, al
though NO complaint is heard among deal
ers on this SCORE. II is thou Rht that this
week will show decided improvement in
kales, A considerable number Of deals are
how in hand which will be perfected very
loon. The month of September promises
| o show large increase in sales over Aug
hat. The latter month il not considered
[,ery favorable time of the year for realty,
which is also undoubtedly true Of other
lines of business.
One of the largest transactions Of the
week was the transfer from Donald Brad
ord to Henry s. Ames of the Dallas and
.ther ranches, amounting to $69,065.2k
Building operations are very brisk and
The new and handsome business blocks in
,rocess Of erection are Of a character that
peaks much for the enterprise and
progressive spirit of their owners.
The $50. 600 school building now being
,uilt in the first ward will be magnificent
testimonial of the pride which the citizens
f Helena take in her public institutio MS.
Probably no city in the union, in proper
ion to population, has expended more, or
ven az much for educational purposes.
The firm of Wheeler, Word & Co., al
hough but short time in the real estate
BUSINESS have done very we'll. Considering
he quiet week they have done good bust
.ess. They have made some good sales in
he Ames and Syndicate additions and
ave several transactions on hand which
hey expect to close in few days.
E. s. French & Co., also report business
or the week to be fair. Mr.. French has
Feen absent on trip to the Park most of
he week.
William Muth & Co., have done good
BUSINESS during the week and say they
ave deals now on hand which will be
losed this week.
Wallace & Thornburg report sales of "a, :
90 worth of property during the past week,
md consider this very dattering showing
then it is remembered that last week was
argely holiday week, on account of the
tate fair and racing in progress. The fea-
ure of the week was sale Of 81, 900 worth
( lots in the Flowerree addition. There
yere also several good sized contracts for
.enox property written and another 5000
esidence contracted for erection in the
anne addition. There appears to be .
rowing demand for good properties in
own and Wallace and Thornburg look for
he display of increased activity all along
|ne line this coming week.

debating legislation. state and national,
and defying the constitution.
Forty years ago the farmers Of the
country owned 70 per cent. of the wealth
and paid IS per cent. of the taxes. To
day they own less than % per cent. and
pay over so per cent. of it's taxes. Not
withstanding this great depreciation in
the ownership of property by the farmers,
the aggregate wealth of the country in
creased during that period 45 per cent
and the agricultural population increased
30 per cent. In 1866 the wheat, corn,
rye, barley, buckwheat, hay, oats, pota-
toes, cotton and tobacco sold for s., O07,-
462, $40.
Eighteen years later, and during which
time the cultivated acreage had nearly
doubled, farm hands had doubled, agri-
cultural implements and machinery had
vastly improved, these same crops sold
for less than 2 per cent. more than in
1866. From 1881 to 1888 exports of
manufactures increased 46 per cent,
while exports of agricultural products
decreased 81 per cent.
The policy of our government, instead
of preserving the great middle class of
our people, is rapidly resolving our pop
ulation into two classes, the extremely
rich aud extremely poor. We are manu-
featuring paupers and millionaires. In
all ages and all civilizations the great
middle class has been the bulwark of
civil liberty--the breakwater against
fanaticisrn, whether in church or state
The life o. this republic, the spirit Of
civil and religious liberty, must find
their lefty of refuge" in the homes and
their citadel of safety in the hearts Of
the great middle class of our people.

Injustice and Crime.

The history of our competitive system
is history of injustice and crime. = 1t
began with physical competition for the
possession of wealth among savages. 1t
is yet the barbarous doctrine of the
survival of the fittest'-that is, the tri-
umph of the most powerful. What mat
ter whether the power be physical, men,
tai, the power of superior wealth, or
that conferred by special privileges. The
man who robs his fellow by legal pro-
cedure is no more h;:.est than he who
does SO at the pistols point. The man
who takes advantage of anothers mis-
fortune to extort money from him is a
thief and robber. There is no such
thing IS honest speculation.-Grang

The Palace is founded in part on the
Beaumont trust fund, and the technical
schools are supported by the Diapers
, company, one of the wealthy trade Or
CARNATIONS of London. The Regent
Street Polytechnic is another large insti-
tute of some 5000 or 1000 members,
which has been highly successful. I
visited this and went all through the
building.
Mr. Slower described also q visit whicA
he paid to the famous Toynbee hall in
Whitechapel, an institution of which
the Neighborhood Guild is an attempted
imitation. Toynbee hall is settlement
of twenty or more university graduates
who have thus taken up their residences
in the midst of London's worst quarter.
and there conduct classes, form clubs,
and do what they can in their associa-
ton with the working classes about
them to encourage social improvement.
The workingmen's clubs, with their
reading and billiard rooms, and, strange
to say, bars open at all hours and every
day, Mr.. Slower also described. The
ease with which the poorer people of
London, whose poverty is everywhere
apparent, can support such clubs was
very striking. Other clubs of like nat
ure, with the exception that the drink
ing in them is confined to non-intoxi-
cants, were also self supporting. This
suggested the possibility to Mr.. Slower
Of establishing here places of resort for
workingmen, where they could find at
tractive surroundings and perfect free
dom. These places could be made self
supporting, Mr.. Slower thinks, and
would be valuable allies to work like
the guild.
1.-THE main problem" said Mr. Stover
sis not how to form charitable institu-
ton. There are enough of them already.
But it is, rather, how we may establish
on business principles something which
may induce the working classes to COM
bine, not for each ones individual bene-
fit, but for the general good of all. Such
an affair should be self supporting, not
dependent upon contributions from the
richer classes. New York Times.

LONDON'S BIG CHARITIES.
Methods Which Might Be Followed W tb
Profit in This Country.

Among the passengers on the Alaska
was Mr.. Charles B. Slower, superintend-
ent of the Neighborhood Guild. Me.
Slower went abroad for the purpose of
studying. as far as his time allowed, the
question of social reform among the
working classes. The Neighborhood
Guild with which he is connected has
for three years been engaged in the or
ganization of clubs for mutual improve
ment among the tenement population of
the district.
In pursuing this work Mr.. Slower has
found many things in the methods prac-
ticed in the East Side of London, which
seemed worthy of imitation here, and it
was partly for a closer study of these
matters that he has taken the tour not
only through England, but in Norway,
Sweden and Russia. MI. Slower had
some very interesting facts to recount in
relation to his experiences in visiting the
workingmens clubs and other institu
tons of the sort with which the poorest
quarters of London are dotted.
MY NlolL w was
perhaps rather at an unfortunate time
of year, as many of the places which |
wanted to visit were closed for the sum-
mer. However, saw among other
things the Peoples Palace, in East Lon
don. in Mile End road, the most dismal
quarter of the East Side. 1t is the
gigantic technical and industrial insti-
tute founded in great degree as re-
suit of Besant's novel, All Sorts and
Conditions of Men, 1t is in an unfin-
ished state as yet, of course, but | should
say that it would prove to be as much
like an enlarged Cooper Union as any
thing.
1.-THE Palace is entirely without re-
ligious instruction, being distinctive in
this particular from the other large in
dustrial institutes. The classes number
already some 10000 members, it is said,
in spite of the incomplete condition of
the building. They include not only
the usual classes in carpentry and cabi-
netmaking, but Matchmaking and pho
Biography, and l should think that al
most every trade could be learned there.

Heaving the Lead.

West Shore. From time immemorial
those who go down to the sea in ships have
taken some means Of aScertaining the
depth Of water beneath their vessels when
running in shallow and unknown seas, and
so far back as any record goes this means
has been weight attached to a rope.
This is technically known as ''heaving the
lead the name ''Iead' being given TO the
weight, because originally a common piece
OF that metal was used. Now the lead IS
especially prepared for the purpose, and
IS heXagonal pyramid varying In weight
from i've to fifteen pounds, and has a
cavity in the bottom into which soap is
pressed for the purpose of bringing up
samples of the ground at the bottom of
the sea, so that its nature can be ascertain
ed.
In heaving the lead on sailing vessel the
leadsman stations himself well forward
near the cathead. In steamships there Is
generally small platform at the bow from
which the lead is heaved. The leads nan
whirls the lead around by the line and
casts it as far in front of the vessel as pos
sible By the time the vessel has pro
crossed as far as the lead the latter has
reached the bottom. and the slack Of the
wire been taken in until it is taut, the
depth of the water Is shown by the fathon
figure on the line at the surface. In cross
ing bar, or in shallow water whose exact
nature is not known, the lead is kept con-
| stantly going, and the course of the ship Is
regulated by what it reveals of the deptf
of the water and the nature of the bottom

macy in North SYRIA for many centuries.
With Rameses the Great. 1,400 B. c.,
they were at constant war. defying the
strength of the Egyptians who very mar
rowly escaped crushing defeat. Their
powers were SO nearly equal that at last a
long treaty was made with honorable
stipulations on both sides, and the daugh-
ter of the Hittite king became wife of
Rameses II. This treaty, however. does
not appear to have been the first. as others
between previous kings are mentioned in
it. Later on Rameses III. was at war
with them, and he carefully specifies.
when decorating the outside of his palace
at Medinet Habu with the sculpture of the
king of the Khita, that the luckless ruler
was taken captive alive
