THE MIXTURE HUMBUG.

The free trade editors OF the Great
Falls Tribune and Helena Independ-
ent have a good deal to say about the
necessity OF admitting foreign wool foI
"mixture." This argument is used
more as an apology for their attitude
in opposing the interests OF one OF the
great industries of the state in order
to keep in harmony with the policy OF
their party.
If we have free wool it means the
admission OF all kinds with no limit
to the amount, and raised ncountries
where land and labor are cheap. The
mixture cry is the purest rot and
every man of common sense knows it.
Ii free wool meant only the admission
Of. the choicest grades from Australia

cussed in the house for three days last
week, and was up for passage on
Thursday evening. a motion to table
the bill was defeated by a tie vote
of las to 14s, as was also a motion
TO reconsider. The house finally ad.
iourned without coming To vote OF
the passage of the bill, which places it
back on the calendar, to be brought up
at some future time. 1t looks now a.
though the bill would be defeated in
the house, Notwithstanding the boast
ing of Bourbon sheets that 1t would
have a large majority. The strongest

Democrats. Bland came near defeat
ing his W bill by voting against it in
order to have an opportunity to call
for a reconsideration, but changed
when it was discovered that the vote
was a tie. An attempt will be made
to bring up the bill again this week,
but its fate is in doubt, as it is claimed
a number of congressman voted against
tabling the bill who will not vote for

FREE BlNDIEG TwINE.

The democrats of the house have passed a
bill placing binding twine on the free list.
There were 1873 votes cast by the democrats
all of whom voted for the bill but three.
There were At republicans voted all of whom
voted against it but three. Nearly half the
republicans ''dodged'' and did not vote. 1t
is to be hoped that there will be found
enough republican senators wao will lay
aside their devotion to party TO give the
farmers the great relief provided for in this
bill. The raw material out of which bind
ing twine is made is admitted free and ac-
cording to the argument of the Oregohian
on the Springer wool bill the manufactured
product must also be admitted free. Of
course that paper will "stand in for tn
free binding twine bill.

Evidence is steadily accommodating to the
effect that A Moore, of st Helens, is
totally unfit person to be placed on the
supreme bench. He has engaged in too
many shady transactions To lend honor
and credit TO any judicial PLACE. His OPP
ponent, on the other hand, Judge A S
Bennett, is an able and popular lawyer,
known throughout TIE district as gen.
tlemen Of homo. and integrity and would
wear the eTmine with dignity and becom-
ing alike 20 himself aud to the high station

no politics in the election of supreme

need TO select person wholly unfit for the

candidate for the presidency and the future

credit, and he may be looked upon by
some as a martyr to political reform. But
his past course leads others to look upon
him as a man who is chasing an lgnus in
the shape of presidency that he can never
reach. A genuinely great man never
seeks an Office. a man of good judgment
