A BRILLIANT FUTURE BEFORE Us.
The Brightest Prospects Of Any City
in the West North OF
st. Louis.
The Butte 4 BOstOn's New
Makes q Successful
Beginning.

A gentleman lately an arrival from St.
Paul was interviewed by the TRIBUNE
yesterday and his sentiments tersely ex-
pressed below are those of nearly every
liberal minded mar who visits II town.
In answer to the question of what he
thought of the town he said: swell, sir,
assuming that you desire an opinion OF
its resources, surrounding country, instl-
t%utions, people, etc, l must assure you
that, although I would be most pleased
to express such an opinion for your per-
sonal satisfaction, l feel that it would be
treating the subject with contempt to at
tempt to cover the matter with any de-
gree of accuracy or system during the
rhapsodical moments spared to me this
evening from my interests in the election
topics. | will say, however, that think
and believe a whole lot of your beautiful
little city in proof of which have come
to stay. And that to me is saying a great
deal, for, Notwithstanding the fact that,
since 1880, l nave travelled this country
over pretty thoroughly from New York
to Oregon, north of st. Louis, estimating
that l nave covered 10000 miles in my
travels and l do most emphatically say
that no where in all my travels have | hit
upon a town or a place that has held out
many or near as many practical induce
ments as to IL brilliant future as Great
Falls. l have been in Seattle, Portland
Tacoma, Astoria, west and Duluth, Win
| nipeg and a number of other cites in the
east before and subsequent to their hav-
ing been doomed, but never have |
appreciated to such extent the practical
basis of such boom as l appreciate and
realize in my experience here. l am sure
that if thousands of our eastern people,
among whome l have associated for
twenty-five years, could only visit this
section of the country, they would
most certainly, to say the least, desire to
remain here. You will not have long to
wait, for | predict that within the next
two years your city will have at least
$4,000 people ard that means,a proportion
ate growth to the extent OF 10000 in five
years or the phenomenal event of a city
of $4,000 people within a period Of ten
years prior to which Great Falls was a
waste of land with but a single resident,
your present senator, Hon. Paris Gibson.

A p%rominent physician and old army
surgeon in eastern Iowa, was called away
from home for a few days; during his
absence II of the children contracted a
severe cold and his wife bought a bottle
Of Chamberlain's Cough Remedy for it
They were so much pleased with the
remedy that they afterwards used several
bottles at various times. He said, from
his experience with it, he regarded it as
the most reliable preparation in use fol
colds and that it came the nearest being
a specific of any medicine he had evel
seen.-For sale by Lapeyre Bros.

HE Leader, not content with causing
the social disturbance incident to the late
strike, now raises the cry of fraud, in
tlmidation and Doodle. Rolfe is such a
notorious liar that few intelligent persons
will heed his yaporlngs. Both parties
worked faithfully and enthusiastically
for their candidates, the votes were cast
without intimidation and the election
was fair and honest. Let no scheming
part'sans attempt by any returning board
to change the results or they will surely
reap the whirlwind of the peoples wrath.

1'lE FlGKT STILL ON.

While the people OF Montana may
we'll congratulate themselves that the
heat and turmoil of another political
campaign are over and that they are tc
have IA welcome rest from the unwhole-
some excitement incident to such a can
vass, the main questions on which the
two great parties of the country are di-
vided still remain living issues to be
discussed in the press and on the ros-
trun, to be debated in Legislative assem-
blies, and to be again passed upon by the
people in future elections. Some OF
them in the nature of things will never
be finally settled. The tariff contro'
versy is one such. Its agitation will
ceaselessly continue so long as 1t Is nee
ess"'J money by taxation fol
the maintenance Of government. wv,
will ever be satisfied that just the proper
I'd ustment has been reached? What
protected interest will ever feel
that it has all the protection it needs?
What taxpayer will ever believe that
his burden is as light as it might be
made? The Mckinley bill Is now the
law of the land. With a senate that is
sure to be republican for at least four
years to come, and with two years more
Of Benjamin Harrison in the white house
it is reasonably certain that no moditica-
ton Of the oppressive measure Can be ex-
pected for several years, unless, indeed,
the supreme court knocks the law in the
head i'll the case now before it, in which
it i is conceded that Speaker Reeds high
handed quorum rulings were %unconsti-
tutional.
But the controversy will be kept up
just the same. Tuesdays congressional
elections throughout the country demon
strate that the great mass of the people
are dissatisfied with the present law and
are determined that the voice of the tax
payer shall be heard in congress as well
as the voice of the manufacturer. Ben
jamin Harrison may continue to serve his
masters, the Pennsylvania barons, whose
money carried him into the white house,
but two years hence a mightier and more
potent force, the fiat Of an outraged peo-
pie, will order his Punishment from pow
er and place.
The protected industries, IN the other
hand, will never cease from demands
upon the government for more bounty.
They will always take all they Can get,
and unfortunately they are dealing with
II party in power that will always yield
to their demands. The duties under the
Morrill, tariff Of 1862 tt meet the exigen-
cies of the civil war averaged but a little
more than 30 per cent. The year after
the war closed they averaged above AZ
per cert and today, under the Mckinley
law, 25 years after the close Of the war,
the average OF duties is 60 per cent, a
jump in "a single year Of 10 per cent!
What will the next demand OF the in
fants be? For rs, 80 or 100 per cent?
Who knows? Nobody except Quay, per-
haps. who may he able to tathom the
bottom of Pennsylvania sordidness and
avarice.
No, voters of Montana, your duties are
not at an end. The conflict is only just
begun. 1t is to be a long and bitter CON
test. Either the money power or the
common people are to rule this country
and dictate the policy of its government.

The democrats of Cascade county did
splendid work on Tuesday and the result
will not only be beneficial to that party
but as well to the people of the county
generally. 1t is IL verdict of the people
for home interests and against the selfish
ness of petty politicians, who resorted to
the most desperate and outrageous ends
to thwart this outcome. The county is to
be congratulated that it will be repre-
sented in the state senate ythe Hon.

NANUFACIURING IN THE WEST

Nothing seems palmer than that the
west will do its own manufacturing in a
few years. For IA long time the New
England and Middle States presumed
that they would continue to produce
most of the manufactured goods for
the entire country. They had the water
power, which was chiefly depended on
for running machinery. They also had
the lumber that was needed for making
furniture, cooperage, carriages and
agricultural implements.
But the water power in the east is
not as abundant or as reliable as it
Once was. The removal of the great
forests near the head of rivers and
around the lakes has served to reduce
the volume of water in the streams
especially during the summer and early
fall. The same cause has had the effect
OF increasing the volume of water in the
spring. The spring floods now do i'm
mense damage to mill property. They
often break dams and carry away mills.
Not i%nfrequently they result in the loss
of life.
The water power furnished by the
great rivers in the west is more reliable
than that of the smaller streams in the
east. The east has no natural gas and no
soft coal, while the west has an abund-
ance of both of them. Wood was once
used in the east for generating steam, but
1t has now become too scarce and costly.

MR.. GIBsoN's canvass was a wholly
successful one. MOdesty in an orator is
admirable and Mr.. Gibson's assertions
that he is no political stumper may be
taken in good grace, but his forcible elo-
quence and effective work on the stump
is truly indicative of his wonerful good
sense and reasoning powers. No orator
IN Montana could arouse such enthusi-
asm as he, because the people admired
him as d man of the highest integrity and
were carried away by his sincere, strong
argumentatige speeches. Wherever he
went he made friends and votes.
