people to unite in business if they
wish to become nation of people
1t is not necessary for them TO
be 30 dependent, it is not necessary
for them to be continually depen-

American people; they should sup
port their own enterprises which
will enable them to hire their own

The Hyman Bros, have set an
excellent example; our older m"n-

from what they are doing, not
only for themselves but for our

ARBOR DAY.

Announcements i'm the local columns
of the Montana press indicate that the
observance of Arbor day tomorrow
will be general and enthusiastic
throughout the state. This hearty re-
Spouse to Governor TOole's proclama-
ton is gratifying in more respects than
one. Arbor day in Montana has a
wider significance than in most other
states, for to the great majority of the
sisterhOOd the idea of its observance
does not extend beyond the primary
object and aim of the day, namely the
adornment of school ground. Here
where shade trees are not indigenous,
il is intended not only to teach the
school children practical lessons in their
planting and cultivation, but to de-
velOp i'm the rising generation a just
appreciation of the beauty and utility
of trees, an appreciation so keen that
II will bear abundant fruit in the adorn-
ment of the lawn, the farm, the city
street and the country thoroughfare.
The principles of irrigation are incl
dentally learned and applied, and what
with the superior quality of the soil in
most places, there is no reason why fifty
years hence Montana should not BIOS
som as the rose.
Tree planting is a grand discipline of
foresight. IL teaches children the
necessity of planting and planning for
the future. IL awakens interest in
coming generations and i'm the amelio-
ration of the condition of the
human race. IL inspires a
sense of patriotism and a
feeling of philanthropy. The habit
of foresight, in short, cannot be over
estimated. Without it a be no true
wisdom. In addition to this, the edu-
cational effect of the exercises of Arbor
day, the aesthetic influence, the expan-
sion of the finer sensibilities, the real
ization that trees are the grandest veg
etable products of nature and form the
finest draperies that adorn the earth,
the admiration of beauty i'm general in
culcated thereby and the enkindling of
other emotions. all these lessons are of
priceless value to the minds and hearts
of the young.
IL is a good sign for Montana that
the idea Of Arbor day has engendered
something more than passive approval.
The sincere and active interest now
being manifested is likely to increase
year by year, and as a vivid object les
son Arbor day will hold a rank of its
own among the holidays provided by
the state OF nation. Decoration day
and the Fourth Of July are commemor.
alive of the past. Thanksgiving day
appeals to the religious sense, and is
most accurately described by its own
name. Arbor day arouses a regard for
the future welfare of humanity.

The FIGHT IN BUTTE.

IL the programme announced i'm
Washington is carried out, a vote i'm
settlement of the Montana contest will
be reached in the federal senate to-day.
by an interesting coincidence the vote
will be taken just when another vote of
unusual significance is progressing in
the city which is the seat of Silver Bow
county. Widespread interest has been
awakened in the result that will be
reached to-day In Butte, yet the voters
in that city have not been aroused over
any local issues of moment while per.
sonal elements in the struggle were
promptly put aside under recognition
Of the fact that the rival candidates for
tae Office of mayor are men either of
whom would grace the Office and serve
the city with fidelity.
The fight has been squarely pitched
on political grounds. Believing them
selves the easy winners at first. the re.
publicans' in Butte have discovered
that their antagonists entered the con-
test with fixed determination To carry
the day and thus put on record their
protest against the political methods
that have brought the name of Silver
Bow into d~isrepute. These men will
