aR0eration of tho dulInesa Of trade Ia Hell

il had almost become the fashion to con,-
plain. All over the united States

day how their trade this January compared
with the same month last year. The ana
swer, which, perhaps, most completely COW
ers the situation was given BY Mi. 4, H,
Wilson, n Of the shoe house Of ].
r. Woolman Il Co. He said;
sIthought this month WAS the duilest
January weshad ever seen. ! guess 7 was
under this impression because I had forgot
ten that Observation-Disclosures quiet the ntst
month of each year. 10 satisfy myself I
looked over my books and found We had
done just as much busidesss % far thin year
as we did in the same time during 1880. and
now that people are through specializing owe
the Legislative problem, | look for aquick-
ening of business in every linc.i'
The firm Of Pope n OCoAnor, DEALERS in
drugs and sundries, also report as good a
business a. last year and sag they have no
cause of complaint. Owing to the
mildness of the SEASON the cloth
iers, naturally, areN not doing
the business they would if we have zero
weather, while the stove dealers are in the
same condition. In the general hardware
Inns trade keeps up to the usual January
volume. The grocers, with one or two ex-
ceptions. report a fair trade, with fewer
calls for credit than last year.. In fact, in
every line there ia a larger cash business
this year than last. The furniture and dry
goods dealers. who always look for ward to
January and February as off months, are
doing about the same amount of business
as in previous years. MIR. John Steinmetz,
of the ;. Steinmetz Jewelry company, rel
ports trade this year fully as good as in
1890, while he considers the outlook very
promising.
The prospect for a good spring and sum-
mer trade wss never better in Montana
than it is to-day. Unless an unusually Sc
we're storm, and one of long duration,
should come, the losses in cattle this season
will be very small. 5Thou2h.there was, not
an over abundance of feed on the ranges
when winter sat in, SO mild has the
winter been that cattlesall over the state
are rolling fat and the calf crop will surely
be large. Sheep. too, have been wintered
at a minimum of expense, and will shear
we'll. In addition, mining brokers report
inquiries for mining properties from Sec
ions Of the east which have herstofors not
taken to this form of Investment. These
inquiries are not for stock, but for pros
poets which give promise of becoming pay
ing mines if money is spent in development.
There will also bs a large influx of desirable
people from the middle west-farmers who
will take up land along the various irrigat-
ing canals now completed in different
parts Of the state. All this will help Mon
tana as a whole, while Helena, owing to her
location, wealth and the fact that she is the
principal city in the state, will secure the
full benefit of this prosperity.

TIM sudden death Of the Hon. Will

THE sudden death OF the Hon. Will
ian Window, secretary OF the treasury,
last night will be a surprise and a shock
to the country. He had long been a
conspicuous figure in national politics,
having served two terms in the United
States senate and in the cabinets OF two
presidents. While not a great man ia-
tellectually, he possessed a we'll stored
mind and was trained in the school OF
experience. He was Of a judicial tenn
permanent and made a good executive Of
ficer. On financial questions he was
rather in sympathy with eastern views,
but he was at all times fair and moder-
ate, and on the whole was a useful and
industrious public servant.

THE daily Russell Harrison is in a
funk because it didn't get the printing
of the city tax list. We understand
that Count DeLestry would also like to
print it in the Fraternal Review. To
award the printing by contract to the
lowest bidder would be a manifest alb
surdity. Whatever little hy-np-the-
creek sheet had the smallest %circula-
ton, and consequently the least valua-
BILE advertising space, would make the
lowest bid, and the people would be
swindled. They want the list printed
in the newspaper that everybody reads
and that is the reason it came to The
INDEPENDENT, which, we may say in
passing, has a larger circulation than all
other newspapers in Helena combined.

HOWAPUZZLE. WAS SOLFE

When you want certain article, you wan
the best make of that article, don't you?
But how to determine which make is bes;
IL what puzzles you, isn't it?
And when the puzzle is solved for you.
by authority which cannot DO questioned,
you are pleased, aren't your
And you would like to hear of one puz-
zle that has been solved for the people Of
the whole world, wouldn't you?
Well, we will tell you about that very
puzzle, and its solution.
At the Universal Exposition of 1889 at
Paris, France, the best sewing machines of
the world, including those Of America, were
in competition. They were passed upon by q
jury composed of the best foreign mechan.
ical experts, two Of whom were the leading
sewing machine manufacturers of France.
This jury, after exhaustive examination
and tests, adjudged that the Wheeler a
Wilson machines were the best Of all, and
awarded that company the highest prize Of
fered, the GRAND PRIZE, giving other
companies only gold, silver and bronze
medals.
The French Government, as a further
recognition of superiority, decorated Mr.,
Nathaniel Wheeler, president of the com.
pany, with the Cross of the Legion OF
Honor, the most priced honor Of France.
That is how the puzzle of the best sewing
machine in the world was fully solved by the
most competent authority In the world in
favor Of the No. Q and No. 10 Wheeler q
Wilson machines.
The No. Q, for family use, and the No. 10,
for manufacturing uses, are the best in the
world to-day.
And now, when you want sewing ma
chine, if you do not get the best, it will be
your own fault. -.
Ask your sewing machine dealer for the

does not keep them, write to us for descrip.
