which evoked indignant rebnke from tho
modot ator. Then Col. McCook began tho
closing argument for ths prosecuting com
mittse In support OF the recommendation
that the appsAl be entertained. Almost at
the opening DR.. Briggs interrupted to cor
rect what he claimed was a misssatement.
Moderator Craig snid lie had been allowed
four and half EOurs without interruptions;
that McCook had henrd him through with
ous objection, and that Briggs should al
low McCook to 90 on In She sams way.
The history OF tho case In its various
stoNes was recite by Col. McCook and the
regularity OF the several steps firmly main
tanned. Col. McCook said: Great weight
has bsen given technical questions raise
In the interest OF appellee, and based upon
stitution Of tho United States. Nor shall

TO be twice pat In jeopardy Of life and

that the appeal from the New York presby.
tery would place AppoIlse's 'ecolesisstical

appropriate usc OF the term ecclesiastical
life seems to have confused the minds OF
some. These are not criminal proceedings,
involving peril to the lifs or limb OF ap-
pcllee. They are proceedings to enforce q
contract, or rather to determine whether q
contract has been maintained in all its in.
tegrity."
At 4:35, after speaking IN hour and
twenty minutsS, . recess WAS taken until
evening. At the evening session MeCook
continued his speech and considered the
plea that acquittal by lower court bars
the riehs OF appeal, and asserted that such
claim 10 not true in fact. nor sound in law
also that it was regular for appeals to be
taken from q presbytery to the general
assembly.

should be entertained. Among other

earliest possible date. rs great and wide

tracted delay. II the doctrines p esented
BY Briggs be erroneous as the committee

HI WEEKLY TRIBUNE.
FRIDAY AUGUST II. 1898.
THE SPECIAL TRIBUNE.

In presenting our special issue of
THE TRIBUNE today we make no boasts
and no apologies, the issue speaks for
itself. IT is a clean cut statement OF
lncontrovertible facts, and it carries
to each person whom it may reach, a
sincere exposition of the advantages and
opportunities possessed by this region.
We have purposely made the supple
ment compact so that it can be sent
everywhere at "a small expense. In send
ing it to friends it should be put into an
envelope with the flap tucked in, and
mailed with a one cent stamp. Papers
in wrappers. especially when sent to
busy people, are too liable to be thrown
aside unread, often unopened.
We believe that Great Falls will be
proud of this showing of her resources,
and that she will congratulate herself
that this work was done when many
were disposed to sit still and do nothing.

NORTH M~ONTiNA METHODIST MIS-
SION.

The meeting of this body just closed
here was one of great harmony and good
fellowship. All tne business in hand
was transacted without "a hitch, and the
reports from all parts of the mission
were most satisfactory. These show
that the mission has had a net gain
of exactly 100 members during the last
year. and that two new churches and
have been built.
AS a body the Methodists always
stand together and work hard for the
advancement Of their branch Of the
Christian church, the result being that
the sect has a goou and strong following
in nearly every community. Their state
conference takes place at Bozeman on
Thursday. when all business that was
not completed here will be attended to.
The ministers are united as one man in
the progress Of the good cause Of religion
and morality.

MIR. CLEvELAND'S MESSAGE.

From the outline given in u Wash
ington dispatches this morning Of the
presidents message one can see how
meager an understanding MIR. Cleveland
has of the situation and of the remedies
for present evils. Like the gold bugs of
Wall street he harps on the dependence
of the United States on other nations,
and seems to show but little capacity to
cope with a question of such magnitude
as that which now confronts the United
States.
This message will prove a severe dis
appointment to the west, although the
substance of it has long been foreshad-
owed. The president has deserted the
west, that seems clear, and we can only
look to congress now for relief. And if
silver is not r%emonetized the Lord only
knows what is going to happen to this
country. We do not believe that the
repeal of the Sherman act will do any
good whatever unless a better silver law
takes it's place, but, on tie contrary, that
things are certain to be much worse
throughout the country if it is repealed
without a substitute.
If the president is a party to the con
spiracy to cause the final overthrow of
silver, either through innocence or ig-
norance, he will prove to be one of the
worst enemies of the republic who has
ever sat in the presidential chair. He
and Benjamin Harrison will go down
together in history as the arch enemies
of the people. and all that Mr.. Cleveland
can do for tariff reform will not redeem
his name.

CONDITION OF THE TREASURY.

Americans have been SO long accus-
toned to take it for granted that Uncle
Sans money chest is all right that any
manifestation of concern for the amount
or color of its contents is almost unpa-
%triotic. 1t is interesting, however, at
the present time to know something of
the condition of the treasury. Possibly
its most interesting feature is the in
crease If the amount of gold reserve,
which has since the last official state
ment was issued, passed the Sl00,0OO,0OO
point.
The total debt on July 81 was Sl,53S,-
iS3,G01, IA decrease Of 81, 100000 since the
previous monthly report. As compared
with the end Of July, 1892, the aggregate
debt, including certificates and treasury
notes, shows a decrease of 34S, 100000
while the total interest and n%on-interest
bearing debt shows a decrease of little
over ?G,2S3,OOO. The gold coin in the
treasury July 81 was 5l03,3G3,G2G, u de-
crease of SCI 100000 as compared with
the corresponding date in 1892. Stand
ard dollars amounted to 1868, los ,4G1, an
increase of 50, 100000 as compared with
a year ago. The subsidiary coins
amounted to $780, 40, a decrease Of
s l,600,0O0 as compared with last year.
Silver bars valued at Sl19,271,73j, an in
crease of 53S,6OO,OOO as compared with
last year. Gold certificates outstanding,
