MIS-. O'Hara, of Davenport. to Civ e
the Keeiey Cure Test.
Mrs. O'Hars of Davenport. has a repu-
tstion in that city. The Democrat says
her moral character is unimpeached. but
she has an awful tendency for jays. She
is hard working woman and does not
lack employment when sober. but as soon
as she obtains little money it goes for
drink. and she lands in the house of de-
tention. The Ladies' Catholic union has
taken her case in hand and has purchased
a quantity of bi chloride of gold, gusran-
teed to cure the worst inebriate. A char
itably disposed gentleman has offered to
pay Mrs Ola board and lodging bill
at Mercy hospital wbill the treatment is
in progress and she was taken there yes
terday. The Kelley cure will be given the
severest test it has ever undergone.
As illustrating how totally the woman
is slave to drink it might be stated that
last Saturday, after havi"g been provided
with clean clothes in preparation for her
trip to the hospital, she insisted upon
cleaning up down town office. She was
allowed to do so. and was paid for the
job. The money went the way of all her
money. and Sunday she was found lying
prostr ale in one of the muddiest alleys OF
the city in the midst of the pouring rain.
The new clothes were irretrievably ruined =.

whoppers! Poor living" %unproduc-
tive soil and ''exhorbitant" freights.
Continuing this disciple of Ananias says:
Remove the hotels, saloons and gam
bling dens and what have they left! In
a town of 5000 inhabitants eighty-tive
hotels and saloons and five churches.
No comments are needed here. That
n fact alone is sufficient to establish
the reputation of the town. Prosperity!
But prosperity to whom? No wonder,
the city officials are making quite a
noise for a new court house"
The Pottsdam Eli Perkins now goes
after the Great Falls banks. lie says;
"When | left that land of prosperity
there was, l believe, one savings bank
and two National banks. There are four
river banks. which with the above three
banks will make the only seven national
banks for which | can account. 1t as
suredly is wonderful what rapid strides
the town has taken within five weeks
The above unintelligible tumble of words
is thus explained. The Pottsdam Mum
chausen escaped from Great Falls only a
few weeks ago, and the four river
banks to which he punningly alludes
are the Missouri and Sun river banks.
Now life is too short and time is too
precious for the TRIBUNE to run down
and expose every little insignificant liar
who being too lazy to work when he gets
here, or too afraid of the police to remain
run back to his native place with a cock
and bull story about Great Falls in his
mouth and a matured determination in
his heart to sponge off his neighbors and
friends. 1t has other work to do. but if
the good people of Pottsdam feel any in
terest in this matter the TRIBUNE would
say that there are today in Great Falls
thirty bricklayers who get Sc per day
of nine hours work: one hundred and
fifty to two hundred carpenters who get
$50 per day: that plasterers get So per
day: masons $3.50; stone cutters S4.O0
per day: moulders $3.50 to 800 per day:
common laborers $3.50 per day: that
there are no idle men in Great Falls
from want of work to do. and that good
board may be obtained at 50 to Sc per
week. The laborers who are sober and
industrious can save money here. If he
gamble and get drunk he won't save a
cent. Maybe that's what's the matter
with the Pottsdam liar who signed his
name "W. II. H." to the communication
in the Pottsdam News from which we
have quoted and which provoked this
very mild and conservative article.

LAS TO SUGAR BOUNTIES.

1t is hardly within the range of posi-
bilities that Montana beet sugar grow
ers will bankrupt the national treasury
this year by their drafts upon it for pay
ment of bounties on sugar made by
them. The industry has not yet APP
preached such dimensions in the state
as to excite any alarm in the mind of
Secretary Foster, but as a recorder of
current events and as a look out on
the outer posts of western civilization
the TRIBuNE would remind those who
may he raising sugar beets with an eye
to the bounty as well as to the profit in
the products that certain preliminaries
must be complied with beforess they can
realize anything from that bounty fund.
1t will be understood that the sugar
bounty goes into effect the first of next
month. and that it is only applicable to
such sugars as can stand the test of 80
degrees polariscope, an mstrumentS used
to p~olariZe light and analyze its proper
ties. That's the kind of sugar the beets
must produce if the grower get any Of
that bounty. This is not all. Before he
can touch a cent of this gift from the
people for the bounty money comes
from the people-the grower must mott
fy the commissioner of internal revenue.
before the first of July. of the amount of
sugar he proposes to raise the current
year; what machinery he will use. and
the methods he will employ in its manu-
facture. He must also give a penal bond
that he will not apply for any bounty
upon sugars not really manufactured by
himself. or that is not manufactured in
the manner he stated it should be.
When all these conditions are fully
observed the grower of cane. beet or
maple sugar may look for the2 cents per
pound bounty promised. Otherwise he
won't get a cent.
There is another little stake which
may be picked up by the Montana beet
grower-that is if he raise the required
number of pounds of the vegetable. The
TRIBUNE has already mentioned the mat
ter but for fear it will be overlooked it
will repeat it. The second legislative
assembly of the state offered a bonus
of $4,000 to the first raiser of 800 tons
or 1.OOO.OO0 pounds of sugar beets.
The offer holds good until the amount
be raised and the bonus gobbled up.
There is a big speculation in this to the
man who has the ground and the seed.
There is money in it even if men be
hired to irrigate the beets from watering
pots. A $4,000 bonus means a cent a
pound for the beets besides the beets
themselves. So there you are-bonus on
beets and bonus on sugar made from
them. The people of the state of Mon
tana pay the one and the people Of all
the states pay the other. Who will get
the bounties:

THE TRUTH OF HISTORY.

Inc Anaconda tins morning,
referring to Mckinley, says:
Twelve months ago, in a republican caucus
and on the floor of the house of representatives.
he Jed the fight against free coinage.
Nothing of the kind. Mckinley led
the fight for a compromise. which re-
suited in the present silver law Inter
Mountain.
The Inter Mountain is either culpably
ignorant or wilfully perverse in this mat
ter. The history of free silver coinage
legislation in the last congress shows
that Mr.. Mckinley worked against free
coinage and voted against it every time
the question came before the house.
Let us see how this is that the truth of
history may be indicated. On June 9TH.
1890. the committee on rules through its
chairman. Mr.. Mckinley, reported a
special order providing for the consider
alton of the silver bill until June {. fol
lowing when the previous question was
to be considered ordered and the bill
placed upon its passage. The democrats
protested against this gag rule but to no
purpose. 1t passed by a yea vote of 10
republicans and one democrat to a nay
vote Of lO6democrats and IL republicans.
The one democrat -Blount-who voted
for it did SO in order to move for a recon-
sideration. Carter hid in the cloak room
and didn't vote. Blount moved a re-
consideration and Mckinley moved to
lay his motion on the table by a vote of
ia republicans to 100 democrats and 0
republicans. In the debate which pre-
coded this voting Mr.. Bland said:
Now. gentlemen who are in favor of
free coinage can have a vote on that
question by voting down this order. and
! want the country and this house to un-
derstand, and l want it to go on record
here, that every gentleman who votes for
this order votes against free coinage.
votes to gag this house, and prevent it
from passing upon the question of free
coinage.
Conger, republican from Iowa, offered
a substitute for the bill which eliminated
free coinage. 1t passed by republican
votes, Mckinley voting with his party
against silver. The Conger substitute
was sent to the senate and after much
wrangling there a free coinage bill was
sent back to the house. Then Mckinley
fought the bill at every step and when
on June 18th the senate bill or rather
amendment to the house bill, came
squarely before the latter body and with
it the question of free coinage it was de.
feated by a vote of 152 nays to 135 yeas,
Mckinley refusing to vote. Then came
conference committees and the passage
of the present silver law, with which Nc
Kinley had nothing to do beyond voting
for it. Mr.. McKinley's record on silver
is the record of a pronounced gold bug.
Whatever he may now say upon the
question will cut no figure with the
Ohio voter. His actions and votes in the
last house speak louder than his words
