The Helena Athletics and Salt Lakes
Will Meet for the First
Time.
A Pitcher from Butte Will be
in the Box for the Home
Team.
Game to be Called at O'clock - Big
Crowd Anticipated-Everyb Should
he There.

To-day the most important base ball sea-
son ever known in Helena will begin and
will continue for four days. The Salt Lake
team was out for practice yesterday, and.
while they have some clever men the Ath-
letics feel confident that they will be able
to defeat them. The Salt Lakes did not, as
whole, show up SO we'll in their work as
might be expected. Their shortstop, Nc
Mann, is second Latham on the ball
field and plays a great short. The Helenas
have secured Burns, who pitched against the
Mormons at Butte to stand in the box to-
day. while Keas will play center. Larry
Gleason also came over from Butte to play
and will be lnlthe field tomorrow while Keas
will pitch. Keas was stunR on the lip by a
poisonous fly yesterday, and his face is
swollen to an immense size, but he says this
will not interfere with his pitching. Game
will be called at o'clock, just at the cool
opportunity to witness the game. Big
crowds should attend these games, thereby
helping to assist the association, which has
done everything and even more than was
expected of it. The management has SO
far been unable to make any money. and
as they look to the public for assistance by
patronizing the games they expect now that
all admirers of the national game will turn
out. The excuse that no good team has yet
played with the Helenas will not hold on
this occasion. as the star aggregation of
Salt Lake ranks with the best ball teams of
the country, and Helena believes she has
equally as strong team. Some brilliant
base ball may be expected to-day. The
batting order for to-day game is announced
as follows:
SALT LAKES. HELENA ATHLETICS.
Platts, Sd. Hubbard, ss.
Blanchard, I'd. Dwyer, +. f.
Griffith, !. I. ttuart, I'd.
Lloyd, c. - Crotty. c.
Larson, G. +. keas C. I.
McNIann. So. Mcdonald Sd.
Lucas, LIST. Gondolfo. LIST.
Wilson, +. t. Burns, p
Phillips, p. Tut, l. t.
Abe Solomon will umpire each game
barring accidents. Captain Gondolfo had
his men out practicing yesterday and prom
ises to give such base ball that the people of
Helena have never seen before. The Ath-
letics are in fine form now and have been
practicing regularly for two weeks or more.
The grounds are now in excellent condi-
ton, the new Raand stand is cool and shady
and there is no reason why 1900 people at
least should not be out to to-day's game.
Both the electric and steam motor lines
run near the grounds and will give rapid
service to-day.

A correspondent thinks our article
on Burlingame endorsed the man
Not at all. We said that his reasons
for continuing with the republican
party were foolish-and SO they were.
But it was on an entirely different is
sue that we wrote. Mr.. Burlingame
was abused like a pickpocket by the
State Committee for staying with the
alliance party six weeks and then
publishing a long screed for leaving
him. The facts were that the com
mittee got down on their marrow
bones and begged-implored-the
man to stay on the ticket until an
other time, and ''cOnsider" the mat
ter. That was wrong-that was
supine and servile. Mr.. B. declined

Olson nominated him, and voucheo

were bosh and balderdash. But he
did justly by that State Committee,
and they villifed him shamefully for
that which they themselves did. A
clique cannot survive such public ly-
ing and private intriguing. 1t must
end with this campaign. We should
never have asked Mr.. Burlingame to
remain on our ticket if he did not be-
lieve in our doctrines-nor deny him

This conflict which is sweeping the
independent party into power is but
a summer zephyr, perfume-fl eighted,
compared to that which will soon
come. The foundations of the cruel
systems OF robbery, by which toll is
enslaved, and the agents of our par
ty made servile tools-has been
shaken! The low rumble is heard, if
you bend your ear to the earth.

axes made in the United States, and which
savors mighty strongly of gigantic trust?
Exactly the same conditions OF competl-
tion would obtain after the abolition of the
duty as obtained before. and British and
German cheap labor would enable England
and Germany to undersell United States
manufactures just as it does now. All the
reciprocity in the world will not change
these conditions one atom! The only
method by which we can successfully COM
pete with foreign countries in the markets
of the world is to reduce the wages of Amer
lean workingmen and women to the level OF
the wages in the countries with which we
would compete and that is the direction IN
which we are tending. If it were not for
that difference in wages we could compete
with those countries now. And if the wages
Uf our workmen be reduced, the power OF
those workmen to purchase is reduced In the
same ratio, and thus the increased under
consumption at home of home products
would be thousand times more injurious
than the benefits, if any, that would accrue
from experimenting in foreign market.
We need no foreign trade. If our mill
ions of workmen were paid as they might
be under high protective tariff the domes-
tic demand would be enough. AT any rate,
reciprocity or no reciprocity, our foreign
trade will be nothing until the wages of our
workmen are reduced to the level of the
wages of foreign workmen, and the word
reciprocity will continue to be suggestive
only of the plan bv which sensational poll
ticians keep their names before too-torset-
full people. E. W. LIGHTNER.

YsPEcIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DIsPAr
BEDFORD, September THE boldesi
burglary that was ever committed in the
county was perpetrdted here last night.
Deputy Sheriff H. c. Smith, with his wife
and younger members of the family, who
are out of town, left the house in charge Of
their oldest son, Grant. who is about 1S years
of age.
Grant was awakened last night by two
masked men, who were armed with re-
Volvers. They bound and gagged him, and
proceeded to ransack the trunks and cup
boards. Then the burglars marched Grant
to the adjoining room and commanded him to
unlock the bureau. The boy, as he pulled open
the upper bureau drawer, saw revolver. In
an instant he had muzzle against the breast
of the largest burglar, and pulled the trigger,
but the cartridge missed fire. aud the two men
pounced upon him, knocking the revolver from
the boys hand, and swearing they would NIX
him.
Dragging the boy to the bed in the room
where they had gagged him. they tied him to
the bedpost After going through the house,
the men left Later neighbors found Smith
almost overcome, owing to the position he had
been in all night.
The Deputy Sheriff arrived home tonight,
and to THE DISPATCH correspondent said that
the burglars had overlooked the money and
sllverware in their hurry. The money was
under the bedtick where they got the cord to
tie the boy.

HRoM STAFF CORRESPONDENT
WAsHIN GToN, September 1T is e1-
pected that the Langston-Venablec contested
election case will come up in the House on
Tuesday, and that very lively debate will
ensue. The majority of the committee were,
for long time, in doubt in regard to this
case, but the fact that there was doubt,
and that great hue and cry would be raised
among the colored people If Langston were
not seated, decided the case in favor of the
colored attorney. MIR. O'Ferrall will open
the ball for Veuable, and he declares he will,
in his management of the Democratic side,
use every dilatory trick to prevent the seat
ing of the negro Langston.
He assures the correspondent of The
DISPATCH that every Democrat will
walk out Of the House to break quorum,
and that he will make it possible, with
the present meager attendance of the
House, for the Republicans to secure
quorum. He is also assured tnat number
Of Republicans, who sympathize with ex-
Senator Malone in his opposition 10 Lang
ston, will join the Democrats in support of
Venable. All this will only make the fight
merrier, and the Republicans more deter
m ined; and, though Mr.. O'Ferrall may sue
ceed for time, he is pretty certain to be
finally beaten.

WASHINGTON, September 1.-THE efforts
of Republicans to give black eyes to the
Republican party go merri'y on in both the
House and the Senate. Several members
have discounted the immortal Samson at his
own game. They have slain hundreds of
thousands of Republican votes with the jaw
bone of an ass. The disagreements of Re-
publicans on the tariff and silver bills, the
frequent employment of language that is a
gross offense against good taste, the handy
ing of epithets, the attack on the Senate and
upon Senator Quay by "Bob' Kennedy,
must all have bad effect on the party in
an off year.
Indeed it is quite certain they would not
be possible except in an off year. There was
the same reason and the same opportunity
for kicking in 1888, but members of each
party stuck together like band of brothers.
1t will be so again in 1892. This is the year
when the independent fellows in the DOM
inant party think they can safely show their
independence.

The End of the Tariff Debate.

1t is to be presumed that tomorrow the
debate on the tariff bill will be at an end in
the Senate. 1t is full two months since it
began, and it has been going on ever since.
What with the debates and amplifcations
of the speeches withheld for revision the
tariff matter will, at the close of the debate,
fill a round 1000 pages of the Congressional
Record. Each days Record has in it from
15 to 80 pages of tariff matter.
By the way, did you know that the Record
has a Sunday issue7 Our good Sabbath
rians who are opposed to Sunday news
papers should begin their onslaughts on the
statesmen who set so vicious an example.
There Is no Monday issue, however, and
therefore no real Sunday work is done ex-
cept to deliver the Record to members who,
of course, cannot wait till Monday to see
how their speeches look in print.

Creditors and Players Making it Warm for
the Athletic Baseball Club.
ESPECIAL TEL EGRAM TO THE DIsPATcH.1
PHILADELPHIA, September z. - Lawyers
Louis Hutt, Jr.. and Harry Freeman will bring
suit on behalf of a number OF players of the
Athletic Baseball Club against that organiza-
tion for salaries remaining unpaid. The atror-
neys represent Curtis Welch, Mickey Hughes.
Eddie Seward, Wilbert Robinson, George Sha-
fer. John Mcmahon, Danny Lyons. Kid Bald
win and Jack O'Brien.
Lawyer Hutt states that the salaries of his
clients have remained unpaid for some time
and that he will on Monday file In court the
exact amount due to each. The amounts
owing to the men have not been furnished him
as yet and to-day he could not give any idea as
to what was due. He said that all executions
and attachments against the funds of the club
would not prevent the players from getting
their salaries remaining unpaid as the law
gave a prior lien for wages to the amount of
500 in each case in preference to all other
claims
George W. Walton to-day obtained judg-
ment against the Athletic Baseball Club for
lumber delivered at the grounds amounting to
S22S IA An execution was placed in the hands
of the Sheriff with instructions to levy upon the
receipts which might be taken in at the game
yesterday afternoon. A deputy sheriff visited
the grounds on behalf of the Messrs. Walton,
but he did not levy upon the receipts, as he
found two other attachments ahead of him.
