So Mr.. Frederick Rogers spent much
of his time at the quiet farmhouse and
impressed himself favorably with Aunt
Frances; and the summer passed and
no one else came to disturb the pleas

One day in late September Minnie
again stood with Mr.. Rogers beside the
cool, dark pool at the edge of the wood
where she took her first lesson in fish

Minnie was looking particularly charm
ing that day. Her face was flushed,
her eyes bright as the sparkles on the
surface of the water below them.
Mr.. Rogers had been painting the
scene, and in few swift strokes he had
her there, too; her warm, sweet face,
her merry lips and all. Her arms were
full of late flowers, and one spray OF
golden rod swept her face as though to
caress Ter.
"How did you manage to get me in
so well?" queried Minnie, with swift,
laughing glance up at him. And this
spray of golden rod is quite perfect.

Then, from behind the hedge, came
a shrill boyish voice quivering with
laughter: Eli, hi, Min, you've got him

broke off into a peal of smothered
laughter, dying away into the distance
with the muffied sound of footsteps on
the rustling leaves.

THE PENDING CONTEST.

According to a Washington tele-
gran, there has never before been a
%contes,ing senatorial delegation The
senate, which is guided SO much by
precedents, has therefore none to go
upon. It is understood, however,
that when the Montana senators and
claimants arrive in Washington, they
will present their credentials to the
vice president. Before either set is
sworn, objection will be made and
the credentials will be referred to the
committee on privileges and elections,
which is to make a full and thorough
investigation. The proper course
would be to admit Senators Clark and
Maginnis, who, as the holders of the
governors certificates, have prima
facie evidence that they were duly
elected. The affair is so simple that
there ought to be no delay in settling
it. Col. Sanders will doubtless strive
to be-fog the senators, but it will be
their own fault it they do not deal
first with the primary incident which
was the unjust refusal of Jack and
Hall to count the votes cast at pre-
| cinct "a. When that is decided, as ii
ought to be-in favor of the voters
the framework of fraud erected by
Sanders will topple over.

CLARK I'M MAGINNTS.

The election of William A. Clarke
and Martin Maginnis, gives general
satisfaction. The Legislature has
simply ratifyed the public will. All
through the campaign and since the
Silver Bow plot, the people have re-
garded Clark and Maginnis as the
men best qualified to represent Mon
tana in the United States senate.
Recent developments have confirmed
this conviction, and hQge designated
the senators just chosen as the men
for the hour-the men best qualified
to grapple with fraud and speak at
Washington with the confidence that
the people of Montana are at their
back.
Major Martin Maginnis has earned
the high distinction by long public
service. As a soldier of the Union, as
delegate in congress, as the untiring
promoter of Montana's prosperity he
has become endeared to the people Of
Montana, who without regard for
party lines are proud Of his ability
and national reputation. He goes to
Washington with a clear title and in
the senate will reflect credit on the
state which sent him there.
The choice of William A.. Clark
Clark meets with as hearty approval.
He will represent titingly the mining
interests of Montana and especially
the city of Butte, which is entitled to
a spokesman in congress by reason OF
its Importance as the greatest mining
camp in the United States. Senator
Clark will represent all Montana, as
we'll as its mining interests. His
honorable public record, his master
ly ability in business affairs, and his
extensive acquaintance with public
men ensure that he will do credit te
himself and be of service to Montana

FALLS TRIBUNE.

SEMI-WE
A CANDID STATEMENT.

IT is gratifying to find the Inter
Mountain rising above party in the
following tribute to Senator Clark:
SHOULD he be admitted to the senate,
Montana will have in that body a
mar whose chief ambition will be to
confirm the wisdom of the gentlemen
who have elected him. Whatever
else he may be, he will be a Montan-
ian. Unless the caucus rule may re-
strain him he will be found a friend
of silver and an advocate of a tariff
on lead. While he will aim to reflect
the sentiment of all the people, he
will have a particularly friendly eye
to the interests of Butte and the West
side. There were no traitors to West
side interests in the democratic legis-
lature and no fools who allowed them
selves to be used as instruments
at-gr~aliGe AGAINST Es4..-.. ths Interest. interests
the most populous part of the state
has not been ignored and insulted.
What Mr.. Clark will do for the west
side, Major Maginnis will do for the
east side. and thus all the people will
be benefited should the democratic
senators be seated. We do not be-
lieve they will be, but no newspaper
can foretell the action of the senate,
which is the sole Judge of the ques-
ton at issue" We hope the Inter
Mountain will follow up this honora-
BILE declaration by exposing the plot
to which Dolman and Bray owe their
election" 1t cannot do its party
better service than to denounce every
phase Of the Silver Bow fraud.

FELLOWS of the Mooney type T
likely to be plenty from this out.
They have keen scent for growing
cities and express an eager desire to
help them along. They devise all
kind of "takes" for new towns. One
time it is a map; another time a hand
book. Sometimes they soar higher
and claim to represent leading journ-
aIs in the east. Mooney asserted
that his paper is paid 1925 per
column and has a daily circulation
Of 100000. He displayed envelopes
addressed to his "paper" but was
very discreet in talking of any sub
ject that might have proved that he
was not what he claimed to be. True
wisdom lies in encouraging home in
dustry alone. When atown is plucky,
self-respecting and enterprising the
leading journals will take care to
court its favor and not ask 1925 per
column for so doing. But the main
reliance must be on the home journal.
As the steady, persistent advocate OF
home interests it it the sourc whence
actual investors derive reliable infor-
nation. Local pride and self-inter-
ests are constant incentives to the
home journal which the eastern
journal v feels when it under
takes to "write up" western towns.
Such journals are at best hired advo-
Gates, while the local paper speaks
with earnestness and independence.

Mn. PARIS GIBSON made a timely
suggestion when he brought the sub
ject of sewerage before the city coun-
Gil on Tuesday. The city needs a
good sewerage system badly. 1t is
needed for the public health and for
the full development of the water
supply. The city will never be able
to turn to account the abundance of
water until means are provided for
carrying off the water after it has
been used in baths and the like. This
is a good time to begin tho sewerage
system. Further delay may prove
costly

The credentials of Senators Magin-
mis- and Clarke will be as sound as
those of any member in the United
States senate. They will bear the
signature of Governor Toole, who as
chief executive of the state has the
best right and title to accredit United
States senators. Unlike congressman,
they represent the state in its collec-
tive, sovereign capacity and should
hold the governors endorsement.

THE WOOL INDUSTRY.

The condition of the wool and
wooden industry continues unsatis-
factory. Both still suffer from the
adverse conditions which existed last
year. The past year began with
large stocks of heavy woolens, which
we're left on hand in consequence OF
the mild winter of 1889. The i'm
portations of wool and woolens which
followed we're on a large scale. They
exceeded in volume our entire home
production. Despite the high tariff,
we actually imported last year more
wool than we raised at home and
more woolens than all our factories
produced. Fortunately for Montana
producers, the natural result of this
state of things was not perceived by
the buyers. They expected a scarcity
and bought accordingly. The prices
which they paid are higher than the
average which has since ruled in the
eastern markets. Owing to the spec
ulative movement an advance OF fully
three cents per pound was paid.
| Much Of this wool went to manufac-
turers who used it to produce goods
which yielded no profit. Failures
followed. As many as ~ mills failed
last year with liabilities amounting to
$1O,442,OO0.
These failures took place in New
York and Pennsylvania as we'll as in
New England, showing that the evil
was not local. The failures among
wool dealers were nine in number.
Their debts were, however, small, the
fatal liabilities being $3.50, 600.
The present mild winter has serv-
ed to increase the depression. It
leaves manufacturers and dealers with
large stocks of heavy goods which
will continue to depress the market
until a reaction sets in.
dull market would be the wider dis
tribution of factories. If some of the
mill-owners. who compete SO sharply
in the east, would come to North
Montana where the raw material il
produced in such abundance, they
wonld fine here a local field which
would be in a measure secure from
eastern depression. Such mills
would be pioneers in an industry
which in five years or less must attain
great proportions.

IT would be q great gain for the
city if the contract for building the
dam was taken by some Of our own

main at home and would no doubt be

In Minneapolis and other cities such
work is done by home contractors.

Especial. Stands First, widely known az

Gen. Brooke sent him oat last Thursday
and he spent all of Saturday IN the Indian
camp. When he attempted to present to
them the peaceful mission on which he had
been sent the Indians leveIed their guns st
him and his voice was drowned in a babel
OF war cries. Then one Of the leaders among
the h'stiles said to him that they would
listen to no more peace talk, and would
never again allow an advocate OF peace TO
leave their camp alive. The statements
they made week ago to the big
peace party sent out to parley with them,
to the effect that the white soldiers were
towards and afraid to fight them, were re-
iterated with vehemence. They called
Stands First woman and the slave OF the
white men. Stands First asked them Whist

case the soldiers came after them, and the
hostiles replied that they had been ready
for month to show how they could pro-
tect them. He says there are q few in tho
hostile camp who would be willing to como
in, but the great majority, he thinks, will
not.
