Montana now leads all the states and
territories in the production of gold
silver and copper, her annual output eN-
ceeding S30,000,000. The principal min
ing camps are on the slopes of the main
divide Of the Rocky Mountains, and also
on the fanks of the Belt Mountains and
the Bitter Root range. The con-
struction of branch railroads penetrating g
the mineral districts has given a new inn
petus to this important industry, and new

electrified the audience by striking up

FREE GREEN GROCERIES.
A workingman's Opinion of the Present
Municipal Monopoly.


To The EDITOR OF TIE TIMES: 1
would like to say few words regarding
tho green grocery ordinance now under
discussion. 1t seems to me there should
be no question about it at all. That a
city should make monopoly OF the
articles of food most needed by the
working man and raise the price to such
an extreme as to make living here in
dull times almost sacrifice Of all that
tends to brighten the life OF such people
and then cause to be published aiver-
tisements calculated to draw them here
In order apparently to fleece them
again after enough of them have gone
away to explain the state OF affairs 10
all who inquire, is to me an indica ton
that working men are thought to be
greater fools than they really are
Why should any city construct an or
dinance that will make it's own peopl @
pay out dollars, out of which they will
as city receive only cents? Would
not the paltry sum thus received be
moro than made up by the increase in
population that would follow the passing
of ordinances with less of the blood
sucker about them?
Outside of the city lies all Of tho land
necessary to furnish vegetables of tao
very best quality, and probably in no
other country are these matters neg
lected so much as here, principally be-
cause the farmers in this vicinity have
been 80 much browbeaten and bullied in
the interest of the middlemen, and have
so little of the kind OF competition
needed to stir them up. together with
the lack of proper channels through
which to dispose Of their produce: and
so, because of the extreme greediness
exhibited by those who direct the affairs
here, the fair name of the city is BELT
tied by those who are forced to leave it,
while the ones that remain here have
to live on third-rate produce, for which
they pay gilt-edge prices.
1t is shame that any place with as
bright prospects should have such a
blight on it, and it is becoming better
understood as it is growing worse. AT
the last election l was registered, but
did not vote, because I could hear OF no
ono who had promised TO advocate this
thing; but if darkey had run for DO
sition on this point would have voted
for him, and there is rapidly increas.

Fun In the Peoples Party Convention.
ono OF the funniest incidents of the
Peoples party convention was the pres
entation of collection raised for the
Moore boy drum corps, which accom-
panied the Renville county delegation.
The boys are all members Of one fa1ni-
ly. The oldest, about twenty, beats the
big bass drum, the second is snare
drummer, the third and fourth are
filters, while the fifth and sixth, four
teen and twelve years old respectively.
make up the complement Of snare drum
mers.
Chairman Stewart called the drum
corps "the Renville band" and Eat the
suggestion of your chairman" O oollec-
ton was raised for the boys. The popu-
lists responded freely, and the hat col
lection footed up $39 SO. The "band'
was called to the platform to receive the
contribution, and the boys came up
ready to play tune in acknowledgment
of appreciation. After Stewart handed
over the money the boys played THE
Girl Left'Behind Me-" and some dele
gate was reminded Of tho mother of nil
those boys.
81 move vote OF thanks to the mother
of those boys" he shouted. The motion
was put and carried by rising vote.
After Stewart had declared the motion
carried a man on the floor called out:
Whats tho matter with the old
mnn?'
Then followed the most ludicrous
sceno of the convention. Men howled
themselves hoarse, and it was several
minutes before business could be re-
sumed.-Minneapolis Tribune.

Eight little pigs that were sucked by
their mother on the farm of Mrs. Stin-
son. two miles from Bridgeton, Bucks
county, suddenly began to growNean
and thin. They appeared as if they
were being starved to death. AS the
maternal swine was fat and had the ap-
penrance of being a rich source of the
necessary tactical food. Mrs. Stnson was
unable until yesterday to discover what
allied the hungry pigs.
Quietly entering the pigsty, she was
astounded to see two immense milk
snakes, over five feet long, quietly cling
ing to the udder of tho mother hog,
which apparently was not at all dis
turbed. They had persistently been
robbing the pigs of what belonged to
them. One of the serpentine pirates
was killed by Mrs. Sinson, but the other
escaped through a hole in the floor

Shall We Have a zach. saoe,

There has been an annual stip-more
or less newspaper stir, be it confessed
every year since 1887 over tho pros
pect of IN English yacht coming over to
race for tho Americas cup, and each
year, after few days exploitation, the
commotion has given place to the usual
peacefulness that characterizes interna-
tional yachting matters on this side of
the Atlantic. The Same old eff as an.
plying to resembling the dimensions
clause in the deed of gtAS, is always tho
stumbling block, and has become q vori-
tablo bette noire to American yachtsmen.
This year the stir is without foundation.
for no challenge has been sent, and even
had one been received and accepted. no
race would be held until 1903. But the
prospect for an international race is very
gloomy.
Tho Englishnen declare positively
they will never race under the present
deed of gift, with its dimensions clause
compelling them to give away all the
measurements of their boat ten months
In advance of the race, and those mem
bers Of the New York Yacht club who
have the matter In charge are equally
positive in declaring that the dimensions
clause shall remain. To the outside
yachtsmen-in fact, to any sportsman
1T looks rs though the New York Yacht
club committee, having taken this po-
sition, was determined to hold it, despite
the consequences. However, as the
races have always been arranged be-
tween two or three men on each side. it
Is possible that some contingency, of
which none outside the innermost circle
are Informed, may have demanded this
obnoxious clause"
Whatever the cause, the fact remains
that yachting on both sides the Atlantic
is suffering from the dcadlock.-Har-
