The rains have come and gone; two
or three warm waves have passed over
the city and sileneed the music of the
frogs within its gates, and still the disease,
and ~pestilence and death predicted by
the Leader have failed to put in an ap-
pearance. On the contrary Great Falls
is the healthiest city in the west accord
ing to its population. The Leader is not
only a false but a mischievous prophet

The holders of about S3O,OO0.OOO of
those AZ cents bonds seem to think they
can make more money out of their hold
ings in other ways than investing them
in 2 per cents. Probably they can. But
if they don't present them for continu-
ance by the I'd prox. Secretary Foster
must scrape up $3O,OOO,OOO with which
to square himself with the holders of the
~ per cents, Where will he get the
money? That's the question.

AVOIDING THE TARIFF.

The American Wool Reporter says:
There are more ways than one of avoid
ing the provisions of the new tariff law.
This is becoming well illustrated in the
case of cotton hosiery, which is one of
the industries that the new tariff was
framed to benefit especially. 1t appears
from the reports Of cotton hosiery com
mission houses that in order to escape
the payment of high duties certain
classes of German goods are being
brought into this country in an un-
finished condition and the finishing
touches and dyeing processes made after
reaching here. 1t is claimed that they
are then stamped with the name of a
prominent German dyer, whose reputa-
ton for fastness of color is worldwide,
and sold as foreign-dyed goods. The
immediate effect of this course may be
an increased sale of these lines of goods,
but it is quite probable that ultimately,
when they are found to be not up to the
standard, it will hurt the sale of foreign
hosiery generally

HARRISON.S SPEECH.

The democratic and mugwump organs
of the country are wasting a good deal
of space and ingenuity in trying to dis
tort President Harrison's Albany speech
into an attack on silver. Fortunately
the speech was so plain and straightfor-
ward hat all their efforts at miscon-
struction must rebound against them
selves, and no thinking and reading
voter will be deceived by this last dodge
of q constituencies partisan PRESENTER
Mountain.
Now will the Inter Mountain tell us
what the speech was, if it was not an at
tack upon silver. Did President Har-
rison say one word in favor of the free
and unlimited coinage of silver? Not
one. Did he say one word that would
lead his hearers to believe he favored
the free coinage of silver? Not one.
Can our Butte contemporary tell? 1t
can, but it won't. But the TRIBUNE will
tell it. President Harrison said, as plain
ly as tongue can say it, that he will veto
any free and unlimited coinage measure
which the coming congress may present
to him for his signature. He smothered
his meaning in a multitude of words,
but that is Just what he meant, and
every republican journal in Montana
knows it. And that is the reason that
not one them dare take an out and out
stand in favor of the free coinage Of the
metal. They are afraid to put them
selves OF record before their national
platform is formulated. That is all.

But Gives Some Sound Advice to Tom
McGibbon.
Tom McGibbon, white man, was
found in one of the dummy cars o. the
Salem line yesterday morning and
locked up. He had no money, but a razor
was found on his person and the charge
of carrying concealed weapons was
entered against him.
McGibbon said he was from Pennsyl-
vania, and had come to Roanoke to get
work at the rolling mill, but not being
ready to start up down there, he was
knocking about the streets. He got into
an alteration at Kelly's saloon on Mon
day night and was knocked in the head.
AS to carrying the razor, he considered
1t portion of his toilet and not con-
cealed weapon. He was given permits
sion to go into the street CARLY some one
supposed to be in authority.
The mayor decided to dismiss the
charge, seeing that the man was no
loafer, but gave him some sound advice

SHOT AT by A POLICEMAN.

A Train Hand Attempts to Clear Up Rail-

One of the freight trainmen on the
Shenandoah Valley road, whose name
could not be ascertained, started out
last night to clean up Railroad avenue.
He armed himself with two pistols and
had great fur for awhile intimidating
the negroes in that locality.
One of them informed Officer j. II.
Vest of the fact that he was armed.
Vest went to him and demanded his
weapons, but the railroad man didn't see
it that way and started to run. The Of
fcer threw his club at him and as he
did so tho fellow pulled pistol on the
policeman, whereupon the latter drew
his weapon and fired at the fugitive, but
without effect.
The shooting soon drew crowd, but
no one attempted to stop the man, who
went running down the platform, revol-
yer in hand The man dropped one PTS
tol as he started to run, which officer
Vest secured.
