The citizens of Great Falls are deter
mined not to have any celestials within
their borders. Mr.. Horst of the Park
hotel hired another Chinese cook a few
days ago and as soon as the fact became
known about SO citizens called at the
hotel, intending to do violence to the
proprietor, but he had received a tip and
made his escape. The mob got the China
man, however, and used him pretty
roughly. He was allowed to make his
escape.
The foregoing is from the Helena
Journal and is a tissue of falsehoods and
Misrepresentation from beginning to end,
and calculated to do harm to Mr.. Horst, a
citizen highly respected here and where
ever he is known.
Mr.. Horst did not employ a Chinese
cook; he hired two to work in his laun-
dry where he had had much difficulty
with help, and they are there yet. When
the mob entered the hotel lobby Mr..
Horst was there to receive them. He did
not escape or attempt to escape, and no
violence was done to Lin or anybody
else. Another thing: The citizens of
Great Falls do not support mob rule and
those who were engaged in the little af-
fair referred to soon found it out. The
Journal should try again.

success of the concert. He played with
mastery skill a piece by Matte, and ellie

whose cultured voice always pleases a
Great Falls audience, then sang with
charming effect the "Venetiar Waltz

In a contribution to the Independent,
Prof. Briggs. of the Union Theological
Seminary says: 1.-THE traditional ortho-
doxy, when tested by the Apostles creed,
is found to be sadly defective in the rich,
est and most precious doctrines of our re-
ligion. These are the very doctrines that
are needed above all others in our times
for the conversion of the world and the
evangelization of the masses in our cities.
These are the doctrines that belong to the
common platfolm of the Universal church.
These are the doctrines that are to be
raised upon the banners of all those who
have at heart the unity of Christ's church.
These are the doctrines that are necessary
to the full and harmonious system Of
Christian doctrine. 1t is the neglect of
these doctrines that makes our system of
theology so dry and cold and dead. These
are the doctrines that are the life blood
of the Christian system. What is the use
of forcing the sterner doctrines upon an
unwilling world when the sweet and sim
pie doctrines of the ancient Catholic
church are so much more appropriate for
the sinful and the erring?"

1T HAS COME AT LAST.
A Few Copies of the Highly Inflated
Leader Annual are Received.

A Few Copies of the Highly Inflated
Leader Annual are Received.
After many months, devoted to vehe-
ment blowing about its typographical
beauty and unparalleled attractions, the
Leader annual published in Chicago)h has
come to hand. The cut are by Wander
cook & Co., and the printing was doubt
less done by some tenth-rate job office of
Chicago. There are a dozen printing es-
Establishments in Montana that would not
let such press work go out of their offices.
Except the Autograph cover the entire
production is commonplace and in part
execrable. One of the illustrations of the
falls looks like a section of the earth as it
was left after Noah's big flood, and the
view of the Grant spring might answer to
illustrate Millions description of the in
fernal pool. But bad as some of these
features are, they pale into insignificance
when compared with the "Bird's Eye
View of Great Falls" This is the monu-
mental botch. The cut looks as if it had
been executed with a jack-knife, and then
printed on a cheese press. The bad exc
cution might possibly be overlooked only
that the whole affair is a libel on the
city. Looking at the thing one
would say Immediately "that town can
not contain over 200 people," while in the
le%tter-pre~ a population of over 5000 is
justly claimed. A building, supposed to
be the Park hotel, stands VI alone in all
its g!ory and then nearly all the rest of
the shacks are massed together between
W wide avenues, apparently in one
block. One of our citizens offers the AZ.
PLANTATION that the artist (?) by mistake
wa furnished a photo of Glasgow or
Chiaook and that the picture really rep
resents one of these Milk river villages.
1t certainly does not represent Great Falls
and if the Board of Trade proposes to
circulate that document it should either
have the leaf torn out or an erratta added
explaining the situation.
The l~etter-press is simply a repetition
of what has been better said a hundred
times, and some of it is extravagant in the
extreme. The statement that the Town
rite company mas sold 100000 worth of
lots in one month is a sample of eXagger.
alton. The trutA ould whave been good
and strong enough. To say that "tabu-
lous sums" have been paid for business
lots is also putting on the tension pretty
heavy, and when it was wholly unnec-
essary. In a word, the pamphlet is dis
appointing, considering the time that has
been taken in its preparation and the fact
that it was printed in Chicago, where the
finest printing in the world is done. The
