WORK FOR THE CONVENTION;


The following communication is at
hand:
To the Editor:
II like the ring of your appeal to Mon
tanians to stand solid in this silver crisis.
but do not agree that every Tom, Dick
and Harry should be permitted to deluRe
the convention with plans and suggestions
with which you think all should come
armed. We have a great many cranks in
this state and it is possible. that q good
many will be present armed with many
suggestions which should not be heard.
My idea is that Immediately after organiz-
ing ways and means committee should be
appointed to propose the simplest and most
practical methods of utilizing the time of
the convention to the best possible pur-
poses. They should report not only an
order Of business but a we'll arranged plan
to carry Montana's end of the fight into
congress and scheme for raising funds if
necessary. It takes money to fight silver
as we'll as political campaign.
SILvERITF.
Our correspondent is following one of
The INDEPENDENTS suggestions. He is
furnishing ideas for the conventions
work and we hope that others will fol-
low. The columns of this paper will be
oIoa for similar communications. 1t
will be easy enough to sift tho sugges-
tions so as to secure the best, and con-
sequently the field should be open to
all. We would like to hear from all the
silver "cranks" in Montana if they have
anything worth telling. In any event,
let all come; every city in the state
must be represented. There will be no
red tape, no frills, no formalities. 1t
will be the FIRST big gathering in the
state for the promotion of silver inter
ests and it's work must be as important
Us the crisis is serious.
Resolutions as strong and expressive
as can be made, must be sent to Pregi
dent Cleveland and congress, but in adj
dition there must be we'll defined out
line for long and hard fight. This we
believe can be best accomplished by
forming permanent Montana state sill
yer league, with branches in every CITY
and camp.
In the meantime we will be glad to
print moro suggestions from Silverite
and others equally interested in this
movement.

On this first day of July, Governor
Tillman, of South Carolina, dona white
apron, a clean necktie and smile and
takes charge OF the liquor business Of
the state. The price will bo twenty
cents drink under tho new law, though
nothing is said about the quality. The
bars will be open at SIX o'clock in the
morning and will close at six in the
evening, and drunkenness will not be
allowed. This is an interesting expert
ment in this country, though it has beon
tried in Norway and Sweden with much
success. We fancy, however, that the
only striking effect will be better order
if not better liquor in the saloons. There
is nothing to disturb the old black bot
tie from its place on the pantry shelf.

The death of A. j. Drexel, Of Phlla-
delphia, will cause widespread regret in
the circles Of business and charity,
where he was most useful and conspic-
uous. He will be remembered most
gratefully by the printers, for he was
one Of the founders Of the Childs. Drexel

The great Drexel library will be like
wise monument to his memory in
Philadelphia, while in many other ways
he leaves the benefits of his wealth,
which if emulated by other millionaires
would cause less Of that social restless
ness which at times breathes danger to
the republic.

To The Independent:
understand that the present intention
of the Fourth of July committee is to have
the pyrotechnic display on the Fourth near
the armory. believe it would be more
satisfactory TO the public II the committee
would direct that the display be made on
the first slope of Mount Helena. and also
believe that there would be less danger
both as to sight-seers and to fires than
down at the armory. At the last Fourth of
July celebration little boy was killed ut
the place where it ia contem plated to have
the display this year. Why not have the
fireworks on an elevation instead of in =
depression? CITIZEN.

FRUIT GATHERING.

The San Jose Herald says concerning
the gathering OF fruit in the Santa Clara
Valley:
What Is wanted now is to organize the re-
liable white labor into gangs that will work
under some responsible head and the fruit
crop, large as 1t is. can all be picked aud pre-
pared for market without the help OF either
Chinese or Japanese.
The Herald says also that ten times as
much fruit is now gathered in the valley
as there was some years ago when fruit
growers predicted that they would be COM
PEELED to let fruit rot on the ground il the
coming OF Chinese should be prohib
The fact seems to be that while Chinese
labor is at hand white labor will not be
utilized. The thousands of young people
In towns and cities who would gladly earn
little money during the fIuit-pieking
season are discouraged from making ap-
plication so long as S o much Of the work is
done by Chinese. But no sooner do the
Chinese disappear than whites come for

HOW HE ROSE.

A kind friend has unearthed in the
official Congressional Directory the auto
biographical notice furnished by Hoke
Smith. 1t does not err on the side of
m odesty, especially in describing his tri-
umphs at the bar, and as his methods are
susceptible of imitation the student of
law may revolve in his mind whether the
short cut TO fortune indicated is suitable
to his Individual case. The Secretary of
the Interior is proud of being self-made,
as the phrase goes, and this is how he ac-
counts for it: "Hoke Smith of Atlanta,
Ga, Secretary of the Interior, was born
in Newton. n. c., September 2, 1855; was
educated by his father, DR.. II. Ii. Smirh
was admitted TO the bar at Atlanta. Ga,
when II years old, and began at once the
practice of law; after being admitted to
the bar devoted himself to the study of
law. carefully reading all the decisions OF
the Supreme Court Of the United States,
the decisions of the Supreme Court Of
Georgia and the leading textbooks; did
not wait for a case to study the law ap-
plicable TO il, but studied law to be ready
for any case in which he might be en-
ployed; preferred the practice of law to
Office. and never held political office until
appointed Secretary of the Interior by
President Cleveland, and entered upon the
duties March Z, 1883" HOke Smith does
not lay claim to genius. but he is prodigy,
