START THE AUDITORIUM.

The representative men of Helena are
slow to the degree of evaporation in
taking up the auditorium project. The
only excuse advanced is that heretofore
a small circle Of public spirited men
have done all the subscribing for i'm
provements, while q much larger circle
of mossbacks have reaped rewards with
out subscribing. This is wrong and yet
1T should not be allowed to hinder the
construction Of the much needed audi
forum building. 1t must be had if Hell:
ena is to bid for great conventions as
she has done SO successfully during the
past year. When you think of 1t, it is a
matter of wonder that this city, away
out in the Rocky mountains and thou
sands Of miles from the great center of
population, should have captured
conventions like that Of the A. 0. U. W.,
the Sons Of Veterans, the Mining con-
gress and National Teachers convention,
which was fairly won at Toronto and
lost afterwards through the shameful
~dupllcity Of one man. There are, Of
course, reasons for the choice of Helena.
These are found in our notwithstanding
mer climate, our proximity to that
worlds wonderland, tho Yellowstone
Park, and the thousand and one studies
OF interest to be found in no other state.
Our representatives at the different
gatherings did royal work and are
specially interested, as all Helena peo-
pie should be, in making these coming
conventions successful to the last de-
gree. They truthfully told of Helena's
splendid and ample hotel accommoda.
tions, Of the hospitality of her citizens
and OF plans for entertainment Of guests
They did their part and did it we'll; nov
it is high time for others to work.
1t is proposed to make Helena the
great convention city Of tho northwest
1t has been demonstrated that this car
be done, but before Helena can iustl,
claim title she must furnish an audito
rum for meetings. This is a prime neces
slty and must soon be- arranged for. Il
should be taken up and pushed with tht
genuine Vlgor of Il successful Montanian
1T should be started in the Board O
Trade without further delay and b.
ready for the first great convention il

II is almost cruel for the United
States and CHILEAN governments to
make peace when it ruins such hopes as
those OF the Portland Oregonian. That
esteemed and usually conservative con
temporary INDUCES its disappointment
thus: "All prospects of a war between
the United States and Chill are fast
fading away, more's the pity for both OF
them. This country and Chill both need
the medicine and discipline of war
Both are pulled up beyond reason ano
would be better for bleeding"
Fancy how our contemporaries wal
blast would be drowned by a shot into
its big tower from a Chilian cruiser il

MONTANA WANTS nlsR SHARE.

AHN
Up to date Montana has received com
paratively little assistance from the
congress Of the United States. Other
eommonwealths with fewer resources
| and less Importance have received mil
lions for the improvements Of rivers and
harbors, for development Of internal re-
sources and for great public buildings.
During territorial existence congress en-
couraged railroads to come to Montana
by land grants, opened up Indian
reservations and thus turned over for
settlers acres OF arid lands useless at
tho present time. Montana has neither
rivers or harbors in great need Of inn
provement, but within her borders are
vast regions Of arid lands which a and
must be reclaimed by irrigation. Tt is
but simple justice that the government
should aid in this work along the lines
suggested by the recent congress in this
city. Let the government spend the
proceeds from sales of public lands for
the extension and encouragement Of ir-
rigation. Certainly II national legls-
lators can engage in no nobler work
than changing these great, dry plains
into fields where mans labor will re-
turn it's reward. 1t is quite as fair for
Montana to have these riches that be-
long to her developed by national aid
as for congress to appropriate millions
for ship canals and deep sea improve.
ments in our prosperous sister state
Washington, or for that matter in en-
couraging hot house roses in the city Of
Washington.
The assay office in this city is the only
public building in Montana. Butte and
Helena, the two largest cities in a
stretch of 1000 miles across the north
west, need government buildings and
should have them. In this city the
United States postofice is on one corner,
the United States land office on n
other corner, while the United States
courts, surveyor general, district attor-
ney and marshal have offices scattered
| about in different localities. All these
departments should be together IN a
building devoted to government pur-
poses. Bills for public buildings have
been introduced and will be pushed by
our representatives. If their efforts fail
it will be because congress has not done
its duty.
1t is time Montana received her share
| of attention from our national legisla-
ture and if she does not have it her
people will know the reason why.
