BEAUTIFUL FLOWERS.
Some years ago, before the N. p. II. r.
was completed, E. V. Smalley made
trip through northern Montana and in
writing it up in the Century magazine
devoted much space to the fora of this
part of the state. Smalley's forte is pen
pictures, and it seemed that he must ex-
aggerate. Not go. From the middle of
April until the last of October, our valley
is literally flower-carpeted. Among the
first to bloom is the COW rea, brilliant
yellow flower growing in clusters and
covering the hillsides with their brilliant
glory. Another very showy flower is the
wild tulip, while dear to the heart of
every genuine down.easter is the modest
little spring beauty, the dainty violets, in
blue, white, yellow and mauve, and the
graceful anemone. Scores of unknown,
unnamed beauties are lnterspersed, while
later in the season come wild geraneums,
clematis, primroses. larkspur, lady slip

near the focus of such extensive traffic.
These works will give employment to
great numbers of carpenters, blacksmiths
and machinists. In due time it is ex.
pected that their capacity will be so in
creased that locomotives, passenger
coaches and sleeping cars will be con-
structed here in great number for the
Great Northern and other railways. The
facilities for such works are not excelled
by those of any place in the United States,
Great Falls will derive great benefits
from the establishment Of these works.
which will be the greatest between Chi
cago and the Pacific coast. The work.
men will form valuable addition to our
resident population and they will increase
considerably the trade of the city.
MONTANA has copper, silver and lead
ores in limitless quantity. Large profits
can be made by reducing these ores.
Here rests the strong position of Great
Falls. In no part Of Montana are the con.
ditions so good for the economical reduc-
tion OF ores as here. Hence, it follows
as matter Of course, that this is the
place where the ores will be brought for
reduction. Mine-owners are not GOV.
erned by whim or sentiment. In estab-
fishing smelters, they go where the ores
can be reduced on the best terms and no
point in Montana can offer such ad-
vantages as Great Falls. Two immense
smelters are located here and others
will follow.

HONEST WORK REQUIRED.


Work in this country, however, means
work. No soft jobs abound. The pay is
good, double what one can get east, the
cost Of living reasonable. But nice young
men with soft hands and softer heads
who all expect to get position as book
keeper, manager, collector or ..helping
jack will find that every industry is
we'll "tticered, every cent of invested cap.
ital is already "managed." Those who
seek honest work will find it and find
opportunities to "work up" II they prove
capable. Better than that, abundant
room to get n choice bit of land which
Uncle Sam cheerfully gives to all who
seek home Or choice mineral prospect
requiring only determination and healthy
muscle to develop 1t.

More fortunes will be anassed
right here in the next twenty years
than in any other part Of the United
States, and the opportunity for poor men
to find work or for the rich to invest their.

tinue to be for years to come.

A MARES NEST.

The solitary and lonesome opponent of
ballot reform has discovered mares nest.
which, in its biased opinion, settles the
fate of the reform in California. This
singularly illogical exponent of losing
cause, solemnly declares that if, after the
State official designated to perform that
duty has read the final proof of the bal
lot sheet, some printer, bribed by the
bosses and prompted by the devil, should
surreptitiously change name in the type
form, or modify the title of an Office. or
extract line from the forms, the entire
edition of ballots might go out with
serious flaw in them, which would play
havoc with the rights of candidates, and
possibly unloose the tent hooks of Humanity.
Certainly such fraud would be re-
mote possibility-but it could not occur
without conniyance on the part of the
official charged with the duty of prepar-
ing the ballots-the Secretary of State, or
the County Clerk, as the case may be.
These officers must be assumed to he
asses, if we are to presume that they
would send out ballots not compared with
the official record Moreover, all such
ballots are printed from stereotype plates,
which are kept by the officials named, and
are not susceptible to the changes referred
to.
No one, except the journal referred to,
would have the effrontery to oppose a
beneficial movement because of the posi-
bility that some grand rascal might break
cog In the wheels of its machinery. Pre-
cisely the same objection advanced by the
journal referred to could be raised against
printing the laws, the official reports, or
the engrossing of bills, the issuance of
patents, warrants, etc. Unless the San
Francisco Chronicle wishes to make itself
laughing stock, it will cease to comb the
subject of ballot reform for such silly, I'M
substantial and ludicrous objections as
that we have referred to.
Another objection which the journal in
dictated renews is that under the reform
system the voter may have to examine a list
of 200 or even 300 names to pick out those
Tor whom he would vote, and that such
process will be perplexing, and may lead
to the will of the voter remaining unex-
pressed in great many cases. Our con-
temporary, it would appear, is purposely
blind to a fact of which it has been re-
peatedly informed, to wit that the most
approved modification of the Australian
system provides for printing the party
tickets in parallel columns upon the Off
cial ballot, with the titles, vignettes and
party designations. No voter can possibly
mistake these tickets, plainly presented
side by side, with the political character
of each candidate indicated in addition in
a space Immediately preceding his name.
In fact, this system is far more convenient
for the voter than that under which he
may have to handle half dozen tickets
on half dozen separate sheets of paper
as is the case with the California system.

In applying the principle of adjustment
of the tariff sentimentalism cannot play
any important part without destroying the
principle. For there is no sentiment in
trade. 1t is not question with what ma
tion we shall trade upon reciprocal basis,
but with whom can we trade to the best
advantage. No country sells to any ex-
cept her best customer.

THE decision OF Federal Court that
Chinese illegally entering the United
States from other countries than China,
cannot be returned to the latter, is sound
reason. 1t is to the lay. mind clear that
the duty of American officials is to re-
turn the trespasser to the border of the
country from which he last came, and to
see that he passes over the line. This de-
cision will make more onerous the duties
of the guards upon the British and the
Mexican borders-but then, for what are
they salaried?
