THAT MISsOULA RESOLUTION.

The Missoula state republican o n
v~ention resolved to send none but free
coinage men to Minneapolis. What does
the resolution amount to. In what way
do the delegates propose to emphasize
their sentiments? Will they demand a
free silver coinage candidate for the
presidency? They would be laughed at
Will they refuse to vote for IA gold bug
candidate? No. For the convention
praised Blaine to the skies and endorsed
Harrison's administration. Blaine and
Harrison are pronounced gold bugs and
the delegates would break their necks to
nominate Blaine and will swallow Har-
rison and swear they like him.
What, then. is the meaning ofthat free
coinage resolution: Simply political
clap trap. The republicans of Montana
wish to square themselves with the free
coinage sentiment Of the state while
their representatives are expected to
help nominate a gold bug candidate foI
the presidency. AS opponents of free
coinage they will feel as lonesome in the
Minneapolis convention as they would
feel in d democratic love feast. They
will be out Of place. 1t is not likely
however, the delegation will say any
thing about free coinage. They viii
simply vote for the republican nominee
whoever he may be and then do theiI
free coinage shouting at home. But al
the same the republican party in Mon
tana, as a party, will vote for the mos
pronounced goldite rather than for
free coinage democrat. or such stuff il
latter day politicians made.

WHAT Is FREE TRADE?

Ask this question to the first blather-
skite who rants against the democratic
party as a free-trade party and it is
money to marbles he cant tell you. Now
the fact is there never was a purely free
trade political party in the world. Nor
is there a purely free trade nation in ex-
istence. Great Britain is not a free-trade
country; it never was a free-trane
try. 1t admits all raw materials free
and taxes some manufactured products
of other nations. Lord Salisbury thinks
England should levy duties upon other
articles especially upon those from coun
tries which lay %prohibItive duties upon
her own. He advises it as a retaliatory
measure.
The democratic, party is charged with
being a free trade party. With the
same consistency it may be charged that
the republican party is "a free trade
party. The democratic party favors the
free admission of certain raw material
and the free admission or at least a
minimum tariff upon the more common
necessarIes OF life among the laboring
masses. 1t would levy a tax upon i'm
ports for revenue and incidentally for
protection. That is not free trade.
Free trade involves the free admission
into any port of the United States Of
every product raw or manufactured from
any and every nation in the world. Free
trade would abolish every customs house
and dismiss every customs house officer.
Free trade would levy a tax upon the
realty and personal property of the peo-
pie to support the general government.
Just as cities, counties and states levy
taxes for support. Free trade means
just what the words imply a trade free
from all restrictions of any kind what
ever, a trade as free as that enjoyed be
tween men and cities and states in Our
country. That is free trade. What
great political party advocated it!
What great party does advocate it?
The time may come when trade will
be as free among all the nations of the
earth as is the air which surrounds all.
But when it does come men and nations
will have ceased to be sOrdid and selfish
and the brotherhood of man will be a
living, active reality and not a deceptive
or meaningless word. When this time
shall come absolute free trade will pre-
vail, the only possible obstacle in the
way being the translation or taking of
men from this world to a higher one as
too good for it.
The Mckinley tariff admits many
more articles free OF duty than did the
old tariff or more than was named in the
Mills bill. The imports of free articles
have greatly increased under the Nc
Kinley tariff and yet republicans charge
democrats with being 'free- traders the
term or name being regarded by them as
one of ~reproach. The fact is men who
charge the democratic or any other pc
litical party in existence as being a free
trade party do not know what they art
talking about. The millennium has moi

TIE time is now about ripe for a re

tinplate industry in the United States
by republican organs. But while the
talk is going on the voter will bear in
mind that while the annual consumption
of tinplate in the country reaches nearly
G~lO,UOO,OOO pounds, our home production
Of the article was less than G,O0O,OOI
pounds last year. These facts cannot be

AND now comes the report again that
Blaine will accept the Minneapolis nomi-
nation and make the race for the presi-
dency. In case Blaine will not run AL
ger is to be pushed to the front. The
cry among leading republicans is "any
n to beat Harrison" The meaning of
all this is hat the impression prevails
among prominent republicans that Ilar-
rison cannot be elected and that if the
party would avoid defeat it must drop
him. 1t begins to look as though Ilar-
rison, like Hayes, will have to take to a
chicken ranch after the ith Of next

On molion the temporary organ
ization was made permanent.

vention at Jefferson City, and
eleven delegates for the Congress
sional convention which meets In

stamped down by the convention
and a unanimous vote lait. the
