MISTAKE.

Gov. Campbell made a great mistake
in permitting himself to be handicapped
by his political friends in the drafting of
the platform upon which he was to
stand. He made a most gallant fight
against Mckinley, using the %latter's tar
if as his weapon. Upon that issue alone
he would doubtless have defeated the
high protection tariff tinker, but unfort-
unately the democratic state convention
which nominated him Numbered in max
ing free coinage the paramount issue in
its platform, ignoring the real onc-the
tariff. Mckinley could not be brought
down to a square fight upon his pet
measure. He lodged the discussion of
it as much as possible. contenting him
self with repeating his little Piqua tin
story wherever he spoke. But he ham
mered away at silver, and, being assisted
by John Sherman and Secretary Foster,
he succeeded in diverting the attention
of the people from the tariff question to
that of free coinage, and by the false
statements, illogical ~reasonings, and
sophistries so long and so successfully
employed by gold bugs confused the
minds of the ignorant in his audiences
and captured their votes.
Gov. Campbell would not be drawn
away from the discussion of the tariff to
make a lengthy defense of silver. But
the democratic platform exposed him to
attacks upon the question and weak
ened his efforts in exposing the PERM
cious workings of McKinley's measure.
There is no doubt that the handling of
the silver question by Mckinley, Sher-
man, and Foster defeated Campbell.
The ignorant among the voters of Ohio
lost sight Of their tariff burdens in their
fear of the silver dollar. and yet there is
one of them who does not want what
the silver dollar will buy. The cam
paign should have been fought squarely !
upon the tariff question. That it was
not is due to laundering in drafting the
platform. Campbell made
the mistake of his life in permitting it.

THERE is virtually no opposition to
take up the county warrants now draw
ing ! per cent and issue 6 per cent bonds
in lieu thereof. If there is opposition to
the proposition the TRIBUNE has not
heard of it. Bonding warrants and re-
funding county Indebtedness at a lower
rate of interest has been done by every
county in the state. 1t is a purely bust
ness proposition and commcnds itself to
every taxpayer. The county will save
$500 a year by voting for the bonds.
Vote for the bonds next Saturday.

and if the vote be "Yes" the saving to
the county will be just $500 a year. No
reasonable person can oppose the re-
funding of the county Indebtedness upon
these terms. The TRIBUNE has before
mentioned this fact, which our Cora cor

MONTANA AT CHICAGO.

What kind of a figure will Montana
cut at the worlds fair at Chicago: This
becomes a pertinent question in view of
her measly appropriation of $4,000 for
an exhibit at that place. She is one of
the largest states in the union and the
most promising one. She stands at the
head of the A in the production of pre-
cious metals. Her mineral resources are
practically inexhaustable and their de-
velopmeut but just begun. Her agricul-
tural possibilities are beyond computa-
ton. Her great ranges feed and fatten
innumerable herds and fiocks. She pos
sesses great measures of coal. immense
timber areas and unlimited water power.
She has all the natural resources which,
when fully developed, will make her a
prosperous, a wealthy and a great state.
But she needs strong hands and strong
arms to work out her destiny. She
needs capital to aid them. A full ex-
hibit of her productions to the millions
of people who will visit the worlds fair
would direct labor and enterprise and
capital within her boundaries. She can
afford to advertise herself. She cannot
do it on her comparatively insignificant
appropriation.
The smallness of the sum which the
last legislature allowed for the exhibit
proyokes u~nfavorable comment abroad.
The state is charged with being niggard-
ly or poor. She is really neither. But
her representatives at the capital last
winter either u~ndcrvalued the import
ancc of an exhibit OF were Indifferent
about it. But whatever the cause may
be it is not too late to correct the mis-
take, and it should be corrected. Mon
tana cannot afford to lose the opportun-
ity to place her magnificent products
before the world, and she should not be
compelled to stand Inundated by want
of means to display them properly.
The appropriation of $4,000 will be
exhausted before collections for exhibits
can be made. The salaries for officers
alone for two years will amount to
The commissioner sixteen in
allowed S. per day during their
sessions. They will probably draw
a couple thousand dollars during the
two years, making altogether $4,000.
Then there is printing to be done, Office
rent to pay and other incidental ex-
penses which will require 5000 or more.
A building costing at least $4,000 must
be erected and we find that $4,000 are
used up before collections for the eX-
hibits are made. The question is: Can
these be made and placed in Chicago for
$4,000? The board of state fair com
Inissioners will be called upon to face
this situation and to decide ways and
means to meet it. There are only two
ways of meeting the deficiency if
there be one: by legislative appropria-
ton or by subscription. The first would

THE ELECTIONS.

As predicted by the TRIBUNE the dem
ocrats emerge from Tuesdays contest
with flying colors. They made a noble
fight against great odds in strong repub-
lican states upon national issues and
gained what may be regarded as a graft
flying victory in every one. For although
Ohio went against them the republican
majority is comparatively so small that it
is little less than a disastrous defeat to
that party. New York, which has been
the pivotal state in presidential elections
for years and at all times a doubtful one,
rolled up a sweeping majority for the
democratic candidate for governor.
Massachusetts and Iowa, the former
s~trongholds of re~publicanism, probably
elect democratic governors, Russell in
the former and Boies in the latter, sue
ceeding themselves. At this writing the
results, however, in those two states are
not definitely known.
1t will be conceded hat the greatest
interest centercd in Ohio and New York.
In the former the high priest of protec-
ton, the father of the present tariff law
and the recognized exponent of present
day republicanism, Major Mckinley,
was the republican candidate for gov
ernor. That party could not afford to
see him defeated. His tariff was made
the prominent issue in the campaign.
Ohio is a republican state and McKin-
ley's defeat meant the virtual destruction
the republican party. Therefore the
whole strength of the administration was
directed to his support. Its ablest speak
RS canvassed the state and hundreds of
thousands Of dollars were expended in
lis behalf. His meager majority attests
poverty Of his victory-a victory
which presages the defeat of the repub-
lean party next year. The following

The board of Worlds Fair managers
have adopted the plans of Galbranith ~

structure Is to be completed by Septem-
Der, 1892. At the meeting yesterday
Chairman Yerkes Of Bozeman presented
the following report:
We have carefully examined all the
competitive plans per advertisement for a
$4,000 building to be erected at the
Worlds fair and recommend that the
plans of Galbraith a. Fuller, Montana ar
chitects, be accepted when the specifica-
tons and details are furnished, with
notifications to be suggested by the
committee hereafter; providing that said
Galbraith & Fuller furnish "a
bond of $1,000 to have the
structure completed by September, 1892,
at the price named, also that said firm
furnish the necessary specifications to
the committee as soon as practicable,
these specifications being subject to the
approval of tie aforesaid committee.

chairman, and Phillip Lowell. DIR.

Pease, made a verbal report, favoring
the plans submitted by Omeyer & Thori
OF st. Paul, but added that he did not
know whether a building according to
these plans would cost more than 49,

the firm at st. Paul and asked that con
sideration of the matter be deferred I'M
