The act of the democratic party in
Kansas in nominating the populist ticket
as its own, the effect OF which is to take
that state out Of the republican column,
gives republican journals the opportun-
ity to express their solicitude for the fate
OF the democratic party. They seem to
fear the fusion will be the end of the
democratic party as a distinct political
organization and the feeling diatribes
that appear in their columns, concerning
the fusion would draw tears from a
hardsaw. In the meantime democrats
are going right along in Kansas and in
other states fully determined to defeat
Harrison and to elect Cleveland.

Just as certain as knowledge expands the

Mr.. FRIcK, Carnegie's business man.

committee regarding the cost of produc
ing a ton of steel at the Homestead
works, 1t was the very information the
country wants. 1t could then under
stand how Mr.. Carnegie and his as
sociates have become multi-millionaires
while pretending they could not put new
and improved labor-saving machinery in
their works without reducing the wages
of employees. Mr.. Prick should be made
to answer the question. The people
could better judge as to the merits Of
the controversy between Mr.. Carnegie
and his employees.

The Minneapolis Tribune bestows
Hpon Tom Carter his need of that faint
praise which is greatly considered as
equivalent TO ii Damn with a big. big D.
1t says:
Thomas Carter, at present commits.
sioner of the general land office, has been
selected for chairman Of the republican
national committee. Mr.. Carter is com
paratively young. and somewhat mex
perienced, but what he lacks in these he
makes up in shrewdness. activity and
common sense. OF course his spurs in
this field are to be won. but the Tribune
is satisfied that. all things considered,
the choice is wise and one that will be
indicated by the result in November.

WEEKLY TRIBUNE
BUSINESS NOT SENTIMENT.
SATURDAY. JULY q. 1892.

Yes, Great Falls is destined to be thu
seat of government of Montana. The
city is built that way. Nature and mar
designed her for a metropolis. Climate
location, resources, accessibility, enter.
prise, business thrift, stability-all are
hers aud are potent arguments in her
favor in the coming capital contest. The
location Of the capital is purely a ques-
ton of business, not of sentiment. 1t is
on that platform that Great Falls stands.
Viewed in the light Of a business prop
osition Great Falls has the best of the
question. 1t has a delightful climate,
cool in summer. warm in winter, with
but little snow. Her location is nearer
the geographical center of the state than
that of any of the candidates for capital
honors. At her doors are manifold re-
sources Of the mines. the fields, the
ranges and the forests. She is on a line
of railroad that taps the most thickly
settled portion of the state and another
year will see two more roads entering
her limits. Her citizens are ente-prising.
pushing and active. always alert to bene-
tit the city. Her merchants and other
business men are conservative and
thrifty. The city is founded upon a
rock-honesty and energy of purpose.
Business. not sentiment. should rule.
Other cities which have put forward
claims for the capital have based their
claims on sentiment. One is The
Beautiful" another pleads past glories.
Great Falls can boast of many beauties.
She might appeal to past and present
She does neither. She appeals
to the business sense of the people.
Here is city with plenty of room for
beautiful locations for public
buildings and for private homes, a
healthy and invigorating climate. a pure
and abundant water supply, These.
added to her other advantages mentioned
above, tell a strong story in her favor.
Business. not sentiment. should locate
he capital.

THE ANTI-OPTION BILL.

The Hatch anti-option bill having
passed the house, is now under fire in
the senate. The object of the bill, az
stated by it's friends, is to protect the
farmer against the city gambler in grains
1t is charged that the latter in his sell
ing on future delivery stands between
the farmer and the consumer to fix the
price of wheat without reference to the
law OF supply and demand. For instance,
A,a stock gambler doing business in
Chicago, sells to b, another stock gam
bier, 100000 bushels of wheat to be de-
livered at some future time at say &C
cents a bushel. b sells his option on
the wheat to G for 90 cents a bushel.
Not a pound Of wheat has passed among
the parties nor has A seen a pound of
grain he has sold to b. but he must have
it and to make money on the sale he buys
it or buys an option on 100000 bushels
from some n else at less than 90 cents
a bushel.
Now here we have four men interested
in getting that 100000 bushels of wheat
and all of them from first to last is play
ing against the farmer. If the farmer
holds his wheat at 95 cents or a dollar a
bushel four bucket shop dealers are
losers for none of them can cover their
deliveries without great loss. They pro-
tect themselves by bearing" the market
still lower and the farmer seeing the
price of wheat going down instead of up
becomes frightened and sells at the price
fixed by the "bears.'
In these transactions not the slightest
regard has been paid to the law of sup
ply and demand. The dealings have
been made on promises to deliverin one,
two, or six months without knowing or
apparently caring what the market price
of the staple may be at that time, the
great dealers themselves feeling confident
they can control it to their own profit.
This kind of trading is known as short
selling or dealing in futures" The
Hatch bill prohibits it. In a recent
speech upon the measure Senator Wash
burn of Minnesota has this to say about
it; "The bill was aimed at a system of
gambling of the most outrageous, insid-
ious, and pernicious character. and
which brought the most widespread and
disastrous results of any scheme of gam
bling which the will and faculties had
been able to devise. 1t was a sys-
tenn of gambling in comparison with
which that at Monte Carlo was innocent
recreation. At least 81 per cent of the
business of the produce exchanges and
boards of trade in the United States was
that fictitious character where prop
erty was sold without ownership and
without any intention Of delivery on the
part either Of the seller or the buyer. In
Chicago at least 95 per cent was of that
fictitious character, prices being fixed
without any regard to the law of supply
demand. The great agricultural
PRODUCTS of the country were made the
of gamblers, wheat and cotton

able or as the peas of "a thimble-rigger."
