mittee was swerved from the support OF
one interest by the demands of another
is conspicuous only by reason of its fec
bleness." This may be true, but we re-
peat that the record proves that the re-
publican leaders deliberately violated
their promise to tho cattlemen for tho
sake of the lead producers. The subse-
quent action of the Montana cattlemen
had nothing to do with tho case. 1t is
to their credit that they were too intel
ligent to be deceived, but it is mono tho
less to the discredit Of the republican
| press of Montana and the republican
leaders in congress that they attempted,
by trickery, to gain votes from an indus
try that they never seriously intended
to protect.
And the republican party is humbug-
ging the wool growers precisely in the
same manner as 1T did the cattlemen.
This country does not produce anywhere
near the amount of wool required to
clothe the American people. The woods
that we import do not compete with our
American woods; they are of different
quality and fiber. We raise in the
United States about 275,oOo,000 pounds;
we use 60o,ooo,0Oo pounds, and every
man, and child in the
land pays an increased price for
every article of wooden clothing
worn, and for whose benefit? Can
the Journal tell us? Certainly not for the
woolgrowers, for prices have not adj
vanced under the exorbitant duties inn
posed by the Mckinley law. The score
tary Of the Golden Gate Woolen Manu-
featuring company, of San Francisco, an
ayowed protectlonist, puts the whole
case in a nutshell when he says: 81
contend if the duty on wool were re-
moved ii would put the American man
ufacturer on an equality with the for
eign manufacturer because the duty, as
it now stands, hampers the American
manufacturers IN exactly the same rate
hat the low cost of labor and motive
power abroad favors the foreign manu-
facturer. In other words if the duty on
wool were removed tomorrow it would
operate to the American manufacturer
as an advantage quite, if not more, than
offsetting the formers advantage in the
cost of labor and motive power. I hold
that the woolgrower is not protected by
the tax on raw wool, but by the tax on
the importation Of the manufactured
article"
We see great promise in the Journals
confession that a duty on hides would be
failure. If it will study the effect of
and high tariffs on wool it will
reach the same conclusion with regard
to that article.

We invite the attention of the lone
Harrison organ to the Hon. Patrick
Ford, editor of the Irish World, who
needs to be taken in hand at once. The
Hon. Patrick says, in the last number Of
his paper: "The popularity of Mr..
Blaine, which was never doubted at any
time, has SO grown in intensity and vol
ume in the last few weeks that there is
no longer any question as to his being
the practically unanimous choice of his
party. Reports from north. south, east
and west show that he is the one man
whom the republicans desire to have as
their leader in the campaign of 1892"
The Journal should lose no time in in
forming the Hon. Patrick that Blaine is
a very sick mar and if he isn't he is a
traitor to his party for not going on the
stump in Ohio.

HOW TO MAKE ICES.

Miss Burgess Interesting Lecture at thu
Helena Business College.
Quite a number of ladies availed them-
selves of the opportunity to attend the
demonstrative lecture of Miss Catharine
Burge at the Helena Business college last
night. Orange ice, coffee and Bavarian
cream we're the subjects, and they were
handled and the process of their making
illustrated in Miss Burgess own inimitable
way. AS with previous lectures, those
present secured copies of the recipes and by
having the work dom in their presence, will
find no difficulty in making the same sue
cess the lecturer does.
That the cooking school and particularly
the Tuesday evening course of lectures are
appreciated BY the ladies of Helena is
shown by the constantly increasing attend
ance at each. Ladies who attended the first
lecture have almost without exception been
present during the entire course. Prof.
Engelhorn deserves a great deal of credit
and the hearty support of the ladies of Hell
ena for establishing the cooking school and
placing it in charge Of 50 competent an in

ors Of the Harvey Peak Mining COM

can guarantee that South Dakota can
supply tin plate enough for the entire
country. Let us hope SO. The con-
sumers of this country are paying an ex-
ira 100000 a year in duties while
these experiments are going on, and
they should have speedy relief. The
tin plate industry is an expensive infant
and the 0 it is through the nursing
period the better.

AS TO HIDES AND WOOL.

The esteemed Journal denies that the
republican national committee prom
ised to place a duty on hides but subse-
quently permitted the Massachusetts
shoe manufacturers to defeat the prop
osition. This is a most surprising state
ment coming from a newspaper that it.
self advocated the duty on hides and
whose own files give a complete history
OF the business. The proposition of the
republican national committee was sent
out in the fall of 1889 to influence the
election of that year. This was six
months and more before the inventor of
the deadly Mckinley bill began work
upon that instrument. The republican
press of Montana hailed the proposition
to place a duty Of one dollar on hides as
a rich boon to the cattle raisers of the
west and seductive figures were pub
lished showing what o profits
would come to the stock men if thew
would only support the grand old party.
Not a republican newspaper in Montana
was honest enough to tell them that the
'oaiN "o ~ SoOQ. ILiSl
year Mr.. Mckinley inserted a clause in
his tariff bill imposing the promised
duty. The Massachusetts republican
representatives went in a body before
the ways and means committee and gave
notice that hides must remain on the
free list because the shoe manufacturers
of New England wanted free raw mate
rial from South America. The commit
tee at first was stubborn in its refusal,
but when it discovered that the bill
needed every republican vote to carry it
through the house it yielded to the de-
mand of the Massachusetts men. All
the representatives in both houses from
the cattle-growing states favored the
hide duty. The Journal will probably
declare that they we're very stupid fol
lows for doing so, but we cannot help
that. In fact we believe they were, too,
but we think they were h~umbugging all
the time, and never cared whether the
duty was put on or not, for they very
quickly yielded to pressure. Later on
the reasons for their surrender were
made clear. The Massachusetts con-
gressmen were in favor of free cad ores,
as well as free hides and the senators
from the lead producing states made a
dicker with them by which the Massa-
chusetts men voted for the duty on lead
ore and in return the western men sur
rendered on the hide question. Col.
Sanders, in an interview at the time,
apologized for this bargain and sale by
the statement: Something had to give
way and We thought hides could stand
it better than lead"

LOQUACITY OF BARsERS.
The Conversation Dodge Merely One of
 the Tricks oT the Trade.

The Conversation Dodge Merely One of
 tho Tricks of the Trade.
 GA great deal has been said about the effectiveness of barbers, said veteran wiclder of razorS to New York Tclc- gram man, but if those who try to be funny on that subject were better posted they would find a reason for it other than tho mere loquacity cf the barber. We discovered long ago that it was infinitely easier to handle a custom CT when we could get him interested in conversation. This is particularly true of a nervous, or fidgety man, who, if the operation goes on in silence, becomes restless and growls at the razor, or ob- jects to the way in which he is being shaved. The talk takes his mind away from his face, so that he is often sur prised to find the work finished when he thought it had scarcely begun.
 You have probably noticed that a barber never gets into an argument with his customer, but that his opinions veer around like weather vane to suit those of the particular man upon whom he may be operating at the time. The conversation dodge is merely ono of the tricks of the trade. Customers who show by their manner that they prefer to be alone with their thoughts while under the razor are never annoyed moro than once by the talllative barber.
 ''Of course there are few younger members of the tonsorial fraternity who use little judgment in talking to customers, and no one is more amused than their fellow-barbers when they get n setback from some iraSciblc-tempercd victim of their gab5lc. The facctious young man who used to put small corl1s il his ears or put on pair of ear huff 5 when he climbed into the barbcr's chair seems to have become extinct"

The Grave of Miles stand.sh.

The place where Capt. Miles Standish, the warrior chieftain of the early set tiers at Plymouth, Mass, was buried is believed to have been established be- yond doubt. According to tradition, he was laid at rest in an old burial ground, between the bodies of his daughter Lora and his daughter-in-lawM Mary Stan dish, the grave being marked by two triangular pyramidal stones. 4 grave answering this description was recently opened at Duxbury, Mass, by the local rural society and found to contain the bones of an old and powerfully built man. In graves at either side were the bones of two young women, and further along in the row were the graves of two children, supposed to be Miles StanGish's sons, who died in boyhood.

WILD HOGS ON THE COLORADO.
Ferocious Creatures That Inhabit the
 Region South of Yuma.

Ferocious Creatures That Inhabit the
 Region South of Yuma.
 Roaming over the lands of the LerdO colony, seventy miles south of Yuma. are droves of wild hogs, variously esti- mated at from one thousand to three thousand in number. They are de- scendants of tame hogs placed on the ranch when Thomas II. Blythe was part owner, about thirteen years ago. After Blythe's decease and subsequent reversion of his interest to Gen. An drade, the hogs were turned loose and allowed to go at will over the rich bot tom lands of the Colorado river. A few generations transformed them into savage beasts, who would attack and eat man if they had the opportunity. They subsist chiefly on the wild potato, a tuber which grows the size of a walnut and in great profusion. The present owner of Lerdo, Gen. Andrade, conceived the idea of having the hogs caught and the meat cured for the use of the colonists.
 Operations were begun about a year ago, says the Chicago Post, and, though not conducted on a large scale, have proven successful. The hogs are caught in a circular corral about thirty feet in diameter, having trap door. Plenty of bait in the shape of corn and potatoes is scattered about the entrance and also buried in the canal. A band of hogs are attracted by the bait, enter the corral, commence roofing for the buried corn and potatoes, and when the right spot is struck by them the trap door falls and they are prisoners. The hogs are fed awhile before slaugh- tering. Their meat is of fine quality and the lard sweet and delicious.

IT WAS RAINING.
4sew Story U1icI, Illustrates the Imbe-
 ciiity of Some People.

Sew Story Which Illustrates the Imbe-
 cility of Some People.
 Many of our everyday remarks, said Eli Perkins, when analyzed philosoph- ically, are very absurd, but still they have a humorous side. The other morn ing, while the rain was pouring down and everybody's umbrella was triclllinG over everybody else, two old friends met at the post office.
 Raining, isn't it?'' inquired Mir. Johnson.
 "What say?" asked Thompson, who was hard of hearing.
 ''I say it's raining.''
 ''I don't quite catch what you say" said Thompson, putting his hand to his ear.
 ''I say," roared Johnson, with full force, tits raining rainy day?'
 Thompson's face colored with sup pressed rage as he passed on. Then, turning suddenly, he looked at his friend and shouted:
 ''Johnson, step into this doorway a mo- ment."
 As the two men stood there gesticu- lating wildly, I heard this dialogue, only interrupted by rain drops and gleams of lightning:
 ''Mr. Johnson,' said MT. Thompson, earnestly, you have known me for many years?"
 "Yes."
 "I'm generally rated pretty shrewd business man, ain't I?''
 ''Yes; you are rated high"
 "Wen, you see the rain running off this umbrella, don't you?"
 "Of course.''
 "Your own feet are wet?''
 "Yes."
 ''Now, don't carry this umbrella to keep the sun off, do I?'
 ''Why, mo-"
 'I carry it to keep off the rain, don't I?"
 "Of course"
 ''Well, then, it rains. You know it rains. Everybody knows it rains. Pco- pie are not idiots. Now, what internal design have you got in pushing aside my umbrella and saying: Raining, isn't it?'"
 "But- But-''
 ''Now, that's all. You just let it rain. She knows her business. You just at tend to your own affairs and let the weather alone. If you don't know enough to know when it's raining, don't ask me. Good day, sir!''
 And then NIr. Thompson shook the rain off his umbrella, stepped into his bank and commenced cutting off his coupons.
