The Commandment Reyised.

The commandment, "Thou shalt not
steal" Is being revised by Mckinley to
read, "Thou shalt raise thy money for
public expenses by taxing the products
of other nations rather than by taxing
the products of thine own; and thou
shalt not tax thyself so long as thou
canst find anybody else to tax"

A young woman, whose distinguished
carriage was hidden beneath her mack
intosh, and whose well kept locks were
crowned with soft felt cap, came in to
engage cook. An elderly woman with
q lorgnette had come for the same pur-
pose. The latter became little impa-
tient over the delay to which she was
subjected and began little investiga-
tion on her own account. She advanced
to the lady in the macintosh, whose
head happened to be turned away, and
inquired tersely:
"Can you cook1"
The young woman turned her aston
ished gaze upon her Of the lorgnette.
Then she said politely:

THAI CHINESE WALL

Two year ago nearly every issue of
the Bourbon press Was filled with abuse
of the Mckinley bill. One of the
chief objections was that IT would
strangle our and shut " out
of the markets oil the world. The false
prophets of Democracy rang in the
quotation about building a Chinese
walP' around the country until the
phrase was worn threadbare. Time has
shown that the predictions, which were
horn of malice and hatred, were
utterly groundless.
The total of exports of merchandise
during the fiscal year 1892 Was 81, o30,-
3335,626 against 1854 AGO, $40 during the
fiscal year 1891, an increase of SI45,-
SD, Sic.
This is the first yea in the history of
United States commerce when the ex-
ports of merchandise have reached
81, OO0,OO0,OO0 The average annual
value of exports for the past ten years
has been 1874, 9S9, $50. The exports of
this last year exceed the average annual
value by the sum of so ,9s9,7s This
large increase in exports of 1892
over 1891 consisted mainly of bread
stuffs, Sis, 706, $40; and cattle, sheep
and hogs, an increase of 81, Sol 1856.
The value of meat and dairy products
exported IN 1902 was S137 All 1856.
The value of the exports Of the five
leading products we're as follows: Cot
ton, S25S,447, 741; b~ae:,dstuifs, S:iol,-
s2S,60l; provisions, $137 HISS; cattle,
sheep and hogs, $~35,G54,4S4; mineral
oils, S44,7S2,12 5; all other exports,
S237 $3.50. This statement shows a
progress in the exports trade that is
not equaled by any other nation.

American miners into competition
with the peon labor of M-aico and

The western interests issue? Grover

was opposed to statehood. He fought |

these respects President Harrison has
been his exact opposite.

A RICH BASIN.
mir p. Hughes Writes Of his Recent VISIT
TO the Judith Country.

Thirteen years ago the writer Of this
Travelled through the Judith Basin, at
that time a boundleas wasteas far a.
WAS known TO the pioneer settler; not
q sod was turned, not an acre fenced,
not a home built except a solitary log
cabin. Buffalo, deer and antelope in
countless numbers roamr,t its broad

noble red man. starting from Great
Falls IN AN eastrrly course about
thirty five miles, you 90 over a low iii
vide and into that beautiful basin oil
wealth known us the Judith Basin.
Here stop and note the changes
Nfongh in n little Owe one decade.
Its area from east to west Is 100 miles
comprising the eastern portion oil Cas-
cade county, all OF Fergus, aud the
eastern pan handle oil Mleaghercounty.
IL Is almost wholly surrounded 10y low
hills and mountains, with several
towns with from fifty to twelve hun
dred people, with numerous postoffices
and stores Pleasant, sunny homes
dot the valley. II has numerous
streams and springs hat have their
source in the Little Belt, Highwood,
Big Snowies, Judith, North and south
Moccasin mountains. Flocks OF sheep,
droves oil cattle and herds OF horses in
all directions are to he seen quietly
feeding on it's many thousand hills.
Hundreds oil miles OF ences and the
same could be said of irrigating
bitches and canals, are everywhere TO
he seen. Thefarmersa and stock grow
ers OF this section are the richest peo-
pie in the world; their valleys the finest
and most productive. Uuder the pres
ent system ofirrigation they have land
sufficient to produce five million
bushels OF oats and wheat yearly.
The surface OF their up-Iands, where
the grass grows the best, is underlaid
with water, which when wells are dug,
comes to the surface Of the ground.
With The proper system OF wells, with
the aid of wind mills, pumps, tanks,
trOughS, etc, a new system OF sheep
husbandry can be adopted i'll Mon
tana and throughout theentire north
west, for on these lands the grasses
grow the strongest and most nutri-
tIouS, making these ranges the most
desirable for both winter and unnie
ranging. With this new system in
operation this section is capable OF
raising and sustaining3, 100000 head
| of sheep, together with hundreds OF
thousands OF cattle and horses. In
conclusion ] will say that the noun
t.tins abound in leads OF gold, silver,
lead, and copper OF untold richness,
and their coal measures which under
lie their mountain bases are simply in
exhaustible for hundreds OF years tt
| come.

The Engineering and Mining Journal
rejuices over the defeat oil the silver

stlll retained, saying that 1t is an
effort to build smelters IN British

Rather, We know they have been re-
duced. There is no occasion Tor such

they did three years ago. The course

The free trade plank. of the Demo.
cratic platform was dictated by the
southern wing of the party. 1t is quite
natural that the south should have no
sympathy for a policy that benefits the
laboring msa inasmuch as that section
tiourished for years on the unpaid
toll of the black man. When an at
tempt was made to insert a plank
moderately favoring protection, and
which came nearer representing the
northern sentiment in the party, it was
defeated. Let every laboring man re.

about 1907 600 head, compared with
100000 during the season OF 1891,
The Murphy ami Ok Bow complement
OF beeves marketable this year is
ri ated at about $1,000 head. Prices
80 far this year average something like
seventy-five cents a hundred less than
II year ago, but these prices, Mr.. Muir
ply believes, will be bettered later on
and the figures of last year reached
During the heated term beef eating is
reduced % the minimum, and hence
the shading off OF prices which pros
pectively, with the cooler autumn
weather, will recover. Among the
earlier shipments marketed at Chi
cago are punches OF excellent steers
from the Flowrree and Sands Bros.
herds. Mr.. Murphy estimates the
average price for Montana steers this
year at $40, and the aggregate sum
that will be realized to the stock grow
ers OF the state on the seasons output
at $4,000, 900.

Governor Pattison of Pennsylvania
when confronted with the situation at
C,eur d'Alene. Realizing that the
National guard OF the state would be
insufficient to cope with the mob he
promptly called for federal troops,

respond to the call. There was no
