Helena Herald.
The Land Commissioner has issued
prompt instructions to the registers
and receivers, countermanding former
instructions and conforming to the
new law which removes the restrictions
upon entry of lands in the arid regions,
except such as are reserved for reservoir
sites. 1t lifts the embargo generally
from our lands and allows the stream
of settlement to come IN and secure
titles, without which no one would
care to make improvements. The
disability was removed so soon that
our people can hardly realize the peril
in which they have been placed. As
it stood before the law of 1SSS was
repealed the title could not be secured
to an acre OF land in Montana, except
under the mineral law. And in all
probability ii the four new states had
not been admitted since the law was
passed, and had Senators and Re
presentatives to work for them, the
law would not have been repealed. As
it was the House acted Obstinately in
the case and forced the matter into
conference. The old hostility so mani
fest in the administration OF Sparks,
is more general than many suppose
and extends beyond party lines.
There is IA jealousy against our section
OF the country, because it draws away
too many of the more enterprisins
young men from the older States.
This feeling influences many, who will
not confess it, and after all there j.
some ground for the feeling and We
can hardly blame them. Neither Ger
tainly can they blame us, because
the resources OF our news Statss offer
such superior inducements to young
nen and men OF capital, The only
help for the situation is to fill upthese
new States as tast as possible and hen
the older States will DE on an equal
foot ing of advant age.

Robert Bonner Talks About Sunol,

NEW YORK, Aug. 30. - Robert Bon
ner, owner OF Maud s., queen OF the
turf, had something to say to-day
about horses, and trotting horses in
particular. Mr. Bonner said: "Idon't
expect to see any horse trot in 2:O4.
Mr.. stanford and agree on a number
OF things, especially on the subject OF
Sunol's career. Considering her age,
believe the mares performance last
Saturday at Chicago, when she trotted
without a break in 2:1Ol,. to be the
greatest feat yet accomplished on the
turf. III give you point that was
not published about that race. The
time she made on the last quarter was
not printed. 1t was 81, seconds.
Add this to her time for the first quar-
ter and you'll see she was going at a
2:O1 gait for the half mile, and at a
2:O6 gait for the last quarter. She
trotted against a strong wind for the
first and second quarters, making
them in 32 and 33 seconds, respect
lively; and between the hall and three
quarter-mile posts she went with the
wind. This shows what IA remarkable
feat it was for a four-year-old. Sec
onds are hrief periods OF time, but in
this kind OF racing they mean great
deal Just think, Sunol, IA baby al
most beside horses that have made
the records, came within | 2, seconds oi
beating the best one made by Maud :.
when she was | l years Old. consider
that n four-year-old in the spring is
not any better than athree-yearold
ia the fall, because there Is resting time
during the winter when they are out oi
trim. so Sunol has all the time he
tween now and November to train,
and the result may be an improve
nent in her speed" Referring to IA re-
cent statement printed III daily New
York paper that Sunol would not be
likely To trot in public after passing
into Mr.. Bonrer's hands, he latter
| said: That Is IA mistake. for am now
in con respon,ience with Marvin with n
view OF having him handle Sunol next
year in her iive-year-old form"

To Produce Rain With Dynamite.

NEW YORK, sept. !. - Col. ID. Il.
Casper, who has been connected with
the signal service since its foundation,
is at present stopping in this city. In
speaking of the appropriation made
by congress providing for experiments
in the artificial production of rainfall,
he said: "Under the new law it is pro-
posed to find out whether rainfall can
not be produced by electricity, dyna-
mite explosions or other mechanical
agencies. Taking the cue from the fact
that heavy cannonading on battle
field or a Fourth OF July celebration is
followed by cOplOus rains, the expert
menters will work accordingly. The
process of burning powder to produce
rain has hitherto been too expensive
to warrant its general use, but pos
slbly cheaper explosives will be found.
1t has been proposed, among other
things, to attach twenty-five pounds
of dynamite to n toy balloon, and
then send a flock OF such balloons int o
the air with lighted fuses attached. AT
any rate" concluded the colonel,
latter one way or another the arid
lands OF this country are bound to be
brought under splendid cultivation
sooner or later. They comprise some
OF the most fertile soil on earth"

WooDrIELp, OHIO, Aug. 30.-Iester-
day was the last day OF the fair here,
and more than ten thousand people
assembled to see the final races and a
balloon ascension by Prof. Carter, the
well known aeronaut. The balloon
was n simple hot-air affair, and was
kept in its position over the furnace
by ropes held by the bystanders.
When it had been inflated and all was
ready Carter gave the word to let go.
The balloon shot upward, and the
thousands OF spectat ors were horriiied
to see, dangling at the end of small
line, Milton Redin, one of the most
prominent young men of the county
and an officer OF the fair association.
Hundreds OF people shouted for him
to drop, but Redin was either en-
tangled or had lost his head, and he
clutched frantically at the rope, at
tempting to climb up the slender line
into the basket. A number of women
in the dense crowd tainted, and all the
spectators grew sick with horror a.
the balloon sailed upward and began
moving southward. Carter could be
seen making desperate efforts To draw
Redin up the rope on which he swung
to and fro. Foriully ten minutes their
efforts continued, and then Mt II height
OF over one thousand feet the balloon
took sudden lurch. Redin's hold
was loosened and his body shot down
ward. 1t was found half mile away.
The clothing was torn off. all his bones
broken, and the body crushed out of
all human semblance. Redin's broth

THE TARIFF BILL.
Congress Will Not Adjourn Before the First

WAsnINGToN, Sept. S.-There is no

ference will he more than likely
to continue discussing contrOverted
points for about two weeks. That
would take until the 25th or 2Yth
instant. The congress cannot have "a
date for al djournment until that meas
ure is disposed of. Consequently the
conservative members do not look
for an adjournment earlier than about
the 10th OF October. Ii will be re-
membered that the congress remained

when presidential campaign was
being waged. This is therefore not u

THE SILVER DOLLAR.
It Has Always Contained Dollars Worth
Of Silver

The Baltimore American says: "Ii
silver keeps on going up the silver dol
lar will soon contain dollars worth
of silver" The silver dollar has always
cont aimed Just dollars worth of sill
yer. II is the weight established by the
fathers to represent n unit Ofvalues i'm
this country, and it seems that when it
was jostled from it's position all the
burden having been put upon gold
as a measure OF values, gold became
inflated and silver seemed to fall in
price. What is going on now is not the
rise OF silver really. 1t is the sinking
back of gold to its normal position.
The dollar remains unchanged. The
dollar is 412l, grains of standard
silver. The editor OF the American
might Just as well say that if wheat
keeps on going up, a bushel OF wheat
will very soon weigh go pounds. A
bushel Of wheat has weighed 6OpOunds
all the time, but it takes 20 per cent
more gold to buy it than it did six
weeks ago. The real test of it all is
the silver dollar. Itspurchasing power
remains the same, and when it seems to
be broken down it will be discovered
that the wheat and the cotton and the
tobacco and everything else that is
produced from the land is broken down
in the same ratio. The American
should not get it s terms confused. just
now silver really is not rising in value.
Its value remains the same. II isgold
that is being clipped OF wings that
never belonged to it. The silver dollar
is worth a dollar now and always
has been, and for the simple reason
that it costs a dollar to produce it.
We would like to get that idea
fastened in the mind OF the eastern
editors who have long been confused on
this subject Salt Lake Tribune.
