A KANSAS republican, Mr.. Detwiller

A KANSAS republican, Mr.. Detwiller,
has epitomized the tariff question in
three short sentences, as follows:
First-The people of the United
States produce many commodities more
advantageously and more cheaply than
the people of any other section OF the
globe.
Second-The people of other coun-
tries produce many commodities more
advantageously and more cheaply than
the people of the United States.
Third-The aggregate production OF
wealth would be greater and all labor
ers would be better r~emunerated if re-
strictions upon the natural flow of com
merce were removed, thereby enabling
the people Of each nation to exchange
what they can produce more advanta-
geously for the articles which the PEG
pie OF other nations can produce edvan.

That eminent republican authority,
the st. Louis Globe Democrat, says:
1.-THE states that elected Harrison four
years ago must do it again this fall, it
he is to be successful" The admission
would indicate that the republican mana
gers have given up all expectation of &C
complishing anything in tie south
through alliance with the third party peo-
pie. The efforts of their boodlers and cor
r%uptionists will again be concentrated
in Indiana and New York. Any claims
that republican newspapers may put
forth Of astonishing gains made by the

cratic states may at once be dismissed
as SO much bosh.

FOR THE CAPITAL.

Comments of Our State Exchanges on the
situation.
BOHEMIAN CHRONICLE: There are no start.
ling features of the capital fight to record
this week. Ihe people of Butte who be-
lieve that city really stands some show of
obtaining the honor are still at work, al
though it is evident that they are not as
enthusiastic as they were. A canvas in
Butte's behalf has shown positively that it
does not stand q ghost of a show, and that
its candidacy only makes Helena's election
all the more certain. This is the condition
of affairs that the most radical Butte sup
porter il compelled to acknowledge. In
the meanwhile Helena is quietly resting on
it's oars with only one ~reRret-that it spent
any money at all toward retaining the capt.
tai. Butte's action made its election an
easier matter than the fondest drenners
predicted. Bozeman is just as much
in the race ns it was four wears
ago, and it will continue to be right up
till the 8th day of November. In the
meanwhile aspiring cities of more or
less Importance are filing notice of their
candidacy aud when the time expires for
such notification, it will be found that every
town OF any size ia in tho race. This lends
an uncertainty to the situation that ia all
the more exciting and it may be Iossible
that some dark horse'' will be the winner.
The Helena Office seeker is happy. It
YVES thought advisable not to permit the
~legions of TINT city, who wanted office, to
announce themselves, in view of tho fact
that Helena was in the capital race and
wanted that above all other things. But
now that Butte has entered the race, to be
followed by a large number OF other towns,
there Is no reason why Helena should shut
down on those of that city who want office
and in consequence there is a great deal of
rejoicing in certain quarters. For the past
four years Bozeman has been threatened
With di vengeance If it dared to ask for
anything. because it sspired 70 capital hop-
ors. Now that other towns have also en-
tered the race. We presume that Bozemau
dare ask for something else.

THE official announcement that the
Canadian Pacific railway is planning to
reach down to Spokane is an important
event in the development Of the railroad
system of the northwest. The Canadian
Pacific, backed by unlimited govern
ment credit, is destined to be a great
factor in the railroad competition IN this
region. 1t only a question of time as to
when it will reach out for the rich
traffic of Montana, and will have it's own
line to Helena. 1t cannot long be kept
out from this field and certainly our
people will have no desire to keep it out.
Spokane is more progressive than Hele-
ma in striving to gain this advantage for
herself. @

The Benton River Press at last partly

w. The Benton River Press at last partly
meets The INDEPENDENTS request that
it give the tax on q number of articles
of common household use under the
Mckinley tariff. Its figures confirm
every statement we have made. The
only excuse the River Press offers IS
that the iniquitous tariff has cut down
importations Of many of these articles
to a very small figure. OF course it has.
That is why it was levied. The tax on
a poor woman's blanket shawl is a
dollar and fifty-tive cents on the dollar.
This prohibits the importations of cheap
shawls and compels the poor woman to
pay an enormous profit to the American
manufacturer. And SO it is through
out the list. Down with the GO per
cent tariff.

THE republican newspapers have
been taking great comfort in the very
large vote cast for kolb for governor OF
Alabama at the recent election. Though
not running on the regularly nominated
ticket, Mr.. Kolb is, nevertheless, q good
democrat. 1t should be borne in mind
that a vote for either n Of the two
candidates for governor Of Texas is a
vote for a true blue democrat, and the
fact that Gov. Hoeg and Mr.. Clark are
both candidates for the chief magistracy
Of the Lone Star state does not indicate
that there is any detection from the ma
tional democratic party.
