THE nomination of Whitelaw Reid for
vice-president is followed by interesting
comments from the republican press,
There ID nothing in his name available
for conjuring purposes, and, indeed,
there is nothing to be said beyond that
he is an able journalist, and a respecta-
BILE gentlemen who has made a very
good diplomat. But on the other hand
the sentiment against his nomination is
very well expressed by that fearless re-
publican newspaper, the st. Louis
Globe Democrat. 1t says: "The nomi.
nation of Whitelaw Reid for ~vice-presi-
dent is a blunder OF Il peculiarly serious
md senseless kind. 1t is Il concession
TO the Blaine faction of the party which
ought not to have been made under any
circumstances. The antagonism Of the

1t a be done with very little diff.
Guilty. 1t is only necessary for the
Board OF Trade to get together, appoint
the proper committees, and then 60 tc
work. We are very sure that our citi
zen will respond most literally to ali
demands. The expense need not be
very great, and by tho exercise Of some
ingenuity a most attractive programme
could be provided. We would like to
see, for instance, a fine parade, some
thing like that of two years ago., in
which our veterans, vi merchants, our
state militia and our local organizations
marched behind bands of music and gay
flags. Then we would like to attend a
big meeting in the opera house, hear a
patriotic Fourth of July address from
n Of Helena's orators, hear that grand
old instrument of freedom, the Declar-
alton of Independence, and hear the ma
tional songs rendered by a large chorus,
or, for that matter, by the audience.
The decorations now seer could be re-
arranged for the day, and with the adj
dition Of a few arches the cost of Hell
ena's Fourth of July dress would be
very small.
In the way Of entertainment there

Broadwater plunge, a ball game at the
park, fireworks in the evening, and other
features which would suggest them
selves to the committees. There will be
no difficulty at all in providing an at
tractive programme.
On Saturday, July ?, the state con,
clave of the L. 0. O. +. will be held in
this city and will bring representatives.
from nearly all towns in the state. They
will remain over Sunday and on Mon
day, the glorious Fourth, if there are
sufficient attractions in Helena. Our
rural friends fiEd time at this season of
the year to enjoy a few days in the city,
and they would like to come on the
Fourth Of July. Two days later a cir
Gus will be held, and many of them who
never miss gathering around the saw
dust ring will surely be here on that
occasion. A celebration would bring
them here two days earlier. Helena
would be right glad to welcome her Wis
ltors and make their stay as pleasant as
possible.
But aside from all these arguments, 1t
is we'll to remember Independence Day.
1t is we'll to show by some outward
form that we have not forgotten the
struggles of our forefathers to free the
young colonies from their tyrannical
yoke and found this grand republic.
The sentiment of patriotism is as strong
and lasting out here IN the Rocky
Mountains as in the eastern states,
where most of us remember the Fourth
Of July as the holiday of the year.
Years ago the red-shirted miners who
were delving the gold by day and by
night out of Last Chance gulch stopped
one day in the summer to let the eagle
scream, and in this brief respite from
toll they showed the same old strain o.
patriot blood. Let us stop for a da,
next month, march down that gulch
decorate the tall and stately building!

make he Fourth of July in Helena ;
royal good holiday.
