If your Engine, Boiler, Thrcshcr, Gin or
Mill needs repairing, now is the time to have
it done. Do not wait until you nccI the
machine, or until others send theirs, thus
crowding the shop and delaying your work,
but send at once and avoid the annoyance
of being kept waiting. 1t takes time to re-
pair machine properly, so that if every
one waits until his machine is needed, and
all send at once, some of you will either be
kept waiting or l will have 10 lose your
work. Now is the time, while business is

tain says as 10 the merits OF M. walker.
He would make first-class postmaster,
but we cannot approve of all that our
Butte contemporary says as to the in
jury our esteemed Helena contempora-
ries are doing. The republican party in
Montana is mighty heavy load for any
body to carry. The burden would crush
any single newspaper, and it is wise
dispensation of Providence that ar
ranges it SO that the Herald carries one
end and the Journal the other. To be
sure the burden bearers do not always
agree as to which way their load should
be carried, but the load itself is not
unanimous on that question. And the
Inter Mountain will see, as time wears
on, that both of our esteemed contem-
poraries are needed in Helena. The
little unpleasantness over the Helena
postoffice means split in the republi
can big four at Washington. Carter
and r. B. Harrison take one view of
things, and Sanders and Power another.
Their differences are bound to get into
the campaign this fall for adjustment.
Sanders and Power will naturally adopt
the Herald as their mouthpiece, and it's
columns will probably TEEN with praise
of the Hon. Lee Mantle, the west side
candidate for congress. Messrs. Har-
rison and Carter, on the other hand,
will naturally seek the aid and support
Of the Journal, which no doubt will
sound the praises Of the Hon. Thomas
Henry Carter. The Inter Mountain
will find that both it's Helena contem-
poraries are needed to carry the repub-
lican party to the tureen this fall. The
Inter Mountain is all wrong in saying
"two more stupid sheets do not exist in
the state" They are simply the victims
of unfortunate circumstances. Don't
shoot the organists; they are doing the
best they know how.

IT has Just been discovered what kind of
reform the new city administration is to
give u.s. It is police reform in the interest
of burglars and safe crackers. The demo-
cratic police service is just the kind of a
SNAP the crooks have been waiting for
Herald.
A democratic reader sends us the
above, with the suggestion that the
burglars, who are very intelligent chaps,
after seeing how easily the republican
managers stole such bulky article as
the great state of Montana, knew they
must have "soft snap" in such petty
business as tapping tills and blowing
safes. 1t is we'll to remember that the
present series of burglaries were put in
operation under the late republican ad
ministration. The Herald will find that
Montana is an unhealthy climate for pc
litical robbers and plain everyda,
thieves.

The Minneapolis journal is another
rebellious republican newspaper that
sees the handwriting on the wall
''Either the republican party or Quay
must pay the penalty" it says. And it
asks: (which shall it be-" We can
tell the Journal that it will be the re-
publican party. Mr.. Quay was chosen
10 lead it in the campaign of 1888 be-
cause he was known to possess the quail
fieations necessary to win in such a
fight. The republican managers started
out to carry the election with money
and they did it. Quay was the
INSCRIPTIONS instrument they employed
to place this money where it would do
the most good. John Wanamaker and
the other political hypocrites gave enor
nous sums to the campaign fund, know
ing just what Quay would do with it,
The party cannot kick down the ladder
by which it climbed into the white
house. Quay is just as good as the men
for whom he bought place and power.

cured seven watches and S25. After leav-

The movement of the Congregational
churches of Montana to establish col
lege in this state is good one. We
trust it will meet with success. Helena
would be just the place for it, and we
believe if some of our land owners were
to offer the necessary grounds, an insti-
tuition with considerable endowment
might be located here. The Congrega-
tionalists have had great success in es-
tablishing colleges in other parts of the
country; such institutions as Dart
mouth, Amherst, Yale and Williams tes-
tify to the interest of the denomination
in education. Helena is the place for a
college, and should move to secure this

The Tariff on Building Material.

A good deal of opposition has been shown
by builders, and others interested in the
improvement of real estate to the proposed
increase of duties on lime cement, plaster
Of Paris, window glass, brick, tiles, zinc
and lead. We have no intention Of enter
ing into any discussion as to the merits of
our protective system, in general but it is
obvious enough that an artificial increase
in the cost of building, which means higher
rents for every one, and the throwing out
of employment of great numbers of me-
chanics. by the postponement or abandon
ment of building projects, ought not to be
imposed upon the country without serious
consideration. As we have often pointed
out, the high price placed upon structural
iron by the producers combination is the
principal cause of the inf1ammable con-
struction of our great warehouses. American
architects know, better than any others in
the world, how to make fire. resisting build
ings, but the advantage to owners, in rent,
and saving Insurance., of erecting such
buildings, is not sufficient to pay the in
terest on their excessive cost, and very
large part of the enormous annual GLOSS
of the country is directly chargeable to the
policy which gives nine rolling mills a
comfortable monopoly of the market for
the principal fire resisting material.
With the additional tax on the other ma j.
terials mentioned in the list, the cost of the
simplest houses would be considerably in
creased, and as we think, all building would
be checked in much the same way that fire.
proof building is now restrained. 1t ought
not to be forgotten that the artificial
heightening of the cost of buildings is a
very different matter from the imposition
of an extra duty ON silk or WOODEN goods.
These are rapidly worn out, and no one suf-
fers serious loss as the price changes; but
houses are built not for few month, but
for generations, and an extra ten
per cent added to the investment
at the outset, through an artificial
and perhaps temporary enhancement of the
cost of materials. will count up, at COM
pound interest, before the house has fallen
to decay, to a sum which would pay the en-
tire original cost of the building many times
over. For this reason, prudent men take
care not to build in times of inflated cur
rency, or under circumstances which pro-
duce, as they think, a temporary increase
in the cost of construction. If they have
money to invest, they prefer to buy property
not artificially magnifed in value, and. in
consequence, not liable to violent shrinkage
when the circum stances change.-American
Architect.

We don't know who is going to be APP
pointed postmaster at Helena, but if Jim
Walker does not succeed Charles d. Curtis
in that position. a grave mistake will have
been committed. 1t is reported that the
only opposition to MIR. Walker emanates
from the the journal office and is based up
on the fact that he works upon an opposi-
tion republican paper in the capital. Mr..
Walker is in no way responsible for the views
earning living by work ON that paper and
for that reason the Journal desires the ap-
pointment of some other man. As between
the journal and the Herald it is difficult to

great work, with supplying dams, has cost
nearly 100000 and the end of the expen-

contend that the city of New York shall

New YORK, May 8.-The State Civil Serv-

meeting last night. President George
William Curtis said: "I.ate revelations re-
garding the misgovernment of this city
furnish new demonstration of the neces-

President Harrison with good intentions,
while condemning First Assistant Post
master General Clarkson for having made
10000 removals for political reasons-more
than any administration before ever made
in the same length of time. The speaker
made one or two condemnatory references
to Senator Quay. He congratulated his
hearers on the fact that the man whom
one of the great parties will soon be
obliged to make its candidate is SO favora-
bly, disposed toward civil service reform.
