COMPLAINT OF INSURGENTS.

The Gillian insurgents are very bitter
IN their denunciations of this government
1or taking the Itata without permitting
her to land her arms and ammunition,
and declare that: "The United States
does not recognize the cradle of,,rcpubli-
can IDEAS n commits a grave error in
thus indirectly assisting a Dictator One
OF Their newspapers goes farther and
shouts louder, as follows: "Let A.mcri-
cans take our ships and our arms, but
let them reflect that they leave nailed in
the hearts of 100000 of men sentiments
of having been deceived in their hopes,
and of having lost faith in the nobleness
OF mind and liberality of sentiment of the
government at Washington
This Is all very fine and very brave
talk, but it exhibits such a lack of knowl-
edge OF the obligations of neutral power
and such petty spleen that the convic-
ton is forced upon the minds of intelli-
gent men that this government would
commit no mistake by withholding aid
and comfort from the Gillian insurgents
even If existing treaties, international
law and precedents did not bar it from
extending favors to them in their contest
with the head of their government
Balmaceda is their president, whose six
years term will expire next September.
II, as they claim, they are the people, and
that Balmaceda is a dictator, they should
vote - not fight him out at the Sep,
tember election and put in a man of
their own. Chill is a republic and her
people claim for it "A republican form of
government, and they should, like the
people of this country, abide by the YER
diet rendered at the ballot-box. If it be
found distasteful, they should bide their
time and correct their mistake at the
next election instead of resorting to arms
and thus inviting evils and disasters up
on their heads.
If the people of the United States at

Mr.. Harrison would now have a
war of immense proportions upon his
and if the insurgents should COM
plain because neutral powers would not
lend them aid and comfort in their fight
'ainst the government, they would Ger
be told to endure the bed they
made for themselves awhile longer. and
prepare a better one at their next cleo
ton. And this is what neutral powers
say to the Gillian insurgents. Hands
in family quarrcls is as apt advice to
nations as to Individuals.

ThE lottery sharps in Louisiana are
not chumps if they don't bear the best
of regulations for honesty. In order to
capture the votes of the farmers of their
state for an extension of life in the bust
ness, they have organized a farmers
loan agency in New Orleans to supply
money to the farmers at the prcpostcr-
ously low rate of ! per cent. per annum,
principal and interest payable at the end
OF twenty years, without security beyond
the note of the borrower. The scheme is a
catching one but thus far it has caughtbut
few OF the sons of toll, as the alliance has
adopted amendments to its constitution
prohibiting members from supporting
the lottery under penalty Of expulsion.
The bait is a tempting one, and it re-
mains to be seen whether it will be swal-
lowed by any considerable number of the
farmers.

THE WOOL QUESTION.

Aprop0s the discussion of the wool
question among well informed journals
the following from the Chicago Tribune
seems to be worthy Of a place among
those political eifusions occasionally
found in candid republican journals and
which should be labelled "Curiosities."
Speaking of the dispatch which was sent
from the farmers convention recently
held in Ohio, in which it was stated that
the WOODS growers who were in attendance
were much depressed because Of the
very low price Of wool and the downward
tendency of the market" the Tribune
rises to remark They have a right to
be. They can not sell their fine woods
except at the manufacturers price. and
ne makes it low enough to offset the
extra duties that Mckinley. the friend
OF the Ohio wool-growers, forces him to
pay on his imported mixing woods. IN
less the situation changes speedily these
Ohioans will be compelled to send their
wool abroad and sell it for what it will
bring at Liverpool.
McKinleyism seems to have shut up
the market for it at home. As the law
is working the wool-growers are paying
the increased duties levied on the i'm
ported mixing woods. The readiest re
lief would be to repeal those injurious
taxes on the foreign woods which are
needed to mix with their own and there
by give them q paying market for it. The
700! schedule Of the Mckinley tariff bill
written by cx Controller Lawrence and
Dclano. Of Ohio. is the biggest economic
hlunder Of many years.

& AND FIGURES.

The River Press. in commenting upon
the boundless wealth possessed by north
crn Montana in her great ranges, says:
"We cannot resist the temptation to
again remark that the grasses on the
boundless ranges of northern Montana
are worth more to her than all the timber.
of which western Montana so exultingly
boasts, is worth to that favored section.
For instance: There were shipped from
northern Montana last year 100000 nut
ton weathers, which brought net 80 per
head, or 100000; also 50.OOOhead of beef
cattle, net $50 per head. or 81 100000; also
100000 pounds of wool, net Is cents
per pound, or $4,000; making a grand
total of S%2.9i0,OOO in n year from those
three items. In addition to this there
should be added the increase in sheep,
cattle and horses. and quite a number of
the latter sold of which no account could
be obtained. How long will it take the
timbered region on the. west side of the
mountains to gather in 100000 net at
hon from the sale of its chief product,
lumber? The larger per cent of the
value of hat product is eaten up by
labor and transportation charges, leav-
ing only small margins to the producers.
Not so with the herds of sheep, cattle,
and horses. The greater portion of their
value goes to the producer, besides their
increase from year to year, while the
ranges on which they live will from sea
son to season renew their cropsof grasses
for ages TO come. But the timber once
destroyed is not renewed for a century.
Give us northern Montana"

PRINCE or WALES ROASTED.

The Prince of Wales is less than
human if he does not suffer many a day
from the unmerciful roasting he received
at the hands of Sir Edward Clarke. lead
ing consul for Sir William Gordon Cum
mings in the famous baccarat scandal
trial. The eminent barrister gave the
Prince Il taste of what was coming by
intimating that the presence of the
Prince of Wales in the court would not
prevent him from making any comment
necessary. This unhcard of plain
language astonished the todies who are
ever ready to tance attendance upon
royalty. while the Prince himself nervous
ly crossed his legs and held his breath
while Sir Edward continued, saying that
Sir Charles Russell had observed that
even If the jury found for the plaintiff
the military authorities would take the
matter up, and that the name of Sir
William Gordon Cummings would be
stricken from the army list. Here is
where Sir Edward got in his work. Il
wish to say III unmistakable terms, that
it would be impossible for the authorities
to do any such thing, and to leave on
that list the names of the field marshals
tho Prince of Wales ard General
Owen Williams"
