THE suggestion made by the ST. Louis
Republic that the house should attack
the Mckinley tariff by several repeating
or modifying bills receives the unquali-
fed approval of a large number of lead
ing democrats and democratic journals.
One of the first bills should provide for
putting binding Irvine on the free list in
the interest Of the grain growers Of the
country. The manufacture OF the article
is now in the hands Of Il huge trust
which owns every cordage and binder

HOW CAN THEY YIN?

HOW CAN THEY YIN?
How can the republicans win at tn
next presidential election? Where ar
the 223 electoral votes to come from t
give them the electoral college! Thes
are questions which others besides poll
ticians are asking themselves and eaCl
other. Nothing has occurred since 1851
TO indicate that a single southern stat
will break its democratic record, TIT
south may be counted solid for thu
democratic candidates. How about tht
north and west? What states a the
republicans claim in those sections of tho
union? Such radical changes have DC
Cured during the past three years il
the political complexion OF several OF
them that the element of doubt is con.
s~picu0us by its presence. New York
New Jersey. Connecticut and Indiana
were generally ciasscd among the doubt
ful states. The last state election threw
New York out Of the class. New Jersey
may be regarded as safe for the demo
Gratis. Connecticut has given democratic
pluralities in the last tive elections. In
diana alone of the four remains among
the doubtful ones.
But the face Of the old list is changed.
Democratic triumphs have placed Mass
achusctts, Iowa, Rhode Island. Wiscon-
slu and Illinois in the doubtful column.
The former has elected Il democratic
governor twice in succession. The dem
ocrats swept Iowa this year; last year
they elected their candidate for gov
crnur. Wisconsin elected a democratic
governor last year Ivy 5000 plurality
and gave a democratic plurality Of 3d.
oO0 ON congressman. iShodc Island not
only gave a democratic majority for rep.
rescntatiycs last year, but for three years
has given democratic pIuraiitios for GOV
crnor. illinois malc a new departure

Of nearly 10000 Tor state treasurer
anu 4 democratic plurality Of $1,000 on
congressman. The republicans cannot
count ON any Of these states. They
must fight rs they have never before
to @ct them ali. They are doubt
in the extreme,
The congressional district system in
Michigan will give the democrats a fair
share OF the electoral votes of that state.
the new states Montana may be
counted democratic. The others may be
conceded 10 the republicans, although it
would not be surprising If North Dakota
went democratic. Minnesota IS not safe
'or The republicans. In fact. with the
exception Of Maine, Vermont, Penn
.sylvania, Ohio. Wyoming. Idaho and the
Pacific coast states the republicans must
'anvass doubtful ground 10 get an clcc-
oral vote. 10 win the republicans must
AIRY either New York or Indiana with
he doubtful states named. The demo-
rats are as likely TO carry Iowa and
Montana AS are the republicans to carry

locs not seem grounds Cor the belief
hat the republicans can win next year.
There must be a remarkable change in
politician sentiment among the people if

THE Helena journal has arrived at the
sage conclusion that the present silver
law ''practically amounts to the free
coinage of American silver" and adds,
1.-THE champions of the white metal have
throttlcd their own best interests" Just
how they have throttlcd their own best
interests, If the present silver law prac-
ticaily amounts to the free coinage Of
American silver, is not made clear by the
astute Helena gold bug sheet. No silver
dollars are now coined nor has one been
coined since the first OF last July. Silver
certificates are issued upon the market
value of silver bullion. not upon the
standard silver dollar, If this be free
coinage the people want none Of it and if
IN opposing the present gold bug silver
law they throttle theiro own best interests
they will go right along in the thro,tIing
business.

ABOUT WHISkEl.

1t is said that by the Takcrmine pro.
cess-whatever that may ~be-ten-yeai
old whiskey can be made in one day
after the product leaves the still. The
Importance of this discovery may be
better understood by the average temp
crance man when he learns that whisbey
is not considered fit to drink until it has
rested in wood Tor at least two or three
years, in order that the rusil oil in the
liquor may be absorbed. But now
comes a Kentucky paper vigorously at
lacking the o~ne-day-oid Tackermine
wniskcy. 1t says:
Thousands of cases have been known
in Kentucky where men OF strong con
stitution have. without drawing % sober
breath in fifty years. passed the age Of
%fourscorc years with clear minds and
steady hands. Should the Takaminc
process become Of general use, five years
will be the extreme limit 10 habitual
drinking, and the |lunatic asyluns Of The
country will have TO be enlarged in size
and increased in numbers almost be-

The meaning Of this excerpt is that It

many enterprising business men.
Those who desire to have cards or an
nouncements appear in the list and
have not yet given their orders to the
secretary, J. W. Horn, should do so at
once.
Some person who had evidently
heard OF r. d. Pulford's fame as a
gardener, tried his hand at selecting
some plants from Mr.. Pulford's hot
bed on Tuesday night. Investigation
showed that the thief possessed a
small foot and wore shoe 81 inches
in length. The next morning the foot
prints were found in many places in
the soft soil of the garden beds. A
number of choice tomato, pepper and
other plants were taken; and lot of
small radishes were pulled up for
plants by mistake, and afterwards left
in corner of the garden.
An exchange says it is wicked to
loaf. Every man is created for pur-
pose and he has no right to shrink
that responsibility. If you have
friends or money, that simply in
creases your responsibility. No man
has right to loaf. Nothing can be
more humiliating to parent than to
know that his son is confirmed loafer
"a mere blank, absorbing his living
from the toll of other hands, and
creating nothing. No sensible young
lady will allow confirmed Ioafer to
enter her company. No able-bodied
strong minded person ever wanted
work who was unable to find it. The
man or boy who is content to live a
drone bee should be forced on his own
resources and compelled to live or
sink. 'Twould be best for society.
Boys, if you have ever loafed don't
do it any more.
