three children in an almost famlshedI con-
dition. He inquired as to the where

While STOPPING over she lost her balance
and fell headlong into the spring. The
water was only about two feet deep. but
the hole was SO very small that the
woman was unable to extricate herself.
The children, who accompanied her. saw
their mothers predicament and grasped
her feet and tugged away in desperation,

Secretary Charles Foster takes a
reseate view in regard to the result so
far of the international monetary con-
ference, and it is hoped his optomistic
way of looking at things is not without
foundation. at is a grave mistake
he says, "to assume that the conference
will prove to be a failure. The taking
of a recess till May was expected by the
administration when the American
delegates left this country. The fact
that Rothsehild made any proposition
for the increased use of silver, coupled
with the declaration that unless some
thing was done to insure its better use
among the nations, very serious conse-
quences would follow, is itself a very
hopeful indication that the prominent
bankers of the world feel the necessity
IF reaching an agreement of such a ma
ture AS will secure approximate uni
formity in dealing with the question
the world over. So far as my personal
connection with the conference is con-
cerned all that l expected of the pre-
liminary conference has been accomp-
lished. The general feeling of the con-
ference is v more favorable than we
anticipated"

ANIMAL BoUNTIEs.

No doubt a strong effort will be made
in the legislature this winter to secure
an increase in the bounty on wild ami
mails in order to encourage their de-
struction. A bill for this purpose would
probably meet with strong opposition
from the mining counties, yet the
benefits of such a measure would prove
so general that antagonism on the part
of the wealthy mining region would
seem like shortsightedness. The pres
ent law should be abolished or the
bounty increased sufficiently to cause
a general onslaught upon stock-destroy-
ing animals. Under the present law
considerable money is paid out of
the state treasury each year on boun-
ties, but with no perceptiable benefit to
stockmen. 1t is the opinion of many
that the bounty is not sufficient to
secure the employment of ''wolfers'
and very few men are engaged in kill
ing the pests of the range.
If it is impossible to secure the pass
age of a general law would it not be
well to have the present law so amend
ed as to give the board of commission
ers in each county power to offer an
additional bounty, within a limited
sum, the same to be paid out of the
county treasury? To some this might
seem too great an expense for the
counties to assume, yet it is held by
those well informed that the loss to
the counties in taxes on animals killed
far exceeds the bounties now paid.
1t is evident that some steps must
be taken to check the ravages of wild
animals, and as all branches of business
are largely dependent upon our stock
interests, the question should not be
viewed from a narrow or selfish stand
point. 1t is a matter that should en-
gage the best thought and fAirest con-
sideration of the present legislature.

1t would seem that the prohibition
party was not making much Roadway
in becoming the dominant party in this
country, though the falling off may be
temporary owing to the advent of the
peoples party. The official returns
from 81 of the A states, when compared
with the highest previous prohibition
vote, show losses in IA states and gains
in only seven, with Il net loss of 1906
votes. In Minnesota there was a fall
ing off of nearly 5000 votes; in Illinois,
5000; Indiana, 1000; Kansas, 1000;
Nebraska, 5000; New Jersey, 10000
Pennsylvania, 5000; Wisconsin, 1000,
and many other states ut the same pro-
portion. 1t was the aim of the pro-
hibitionists to secure a million votes at
the recent election, but the number
will not much exceed 100000 if they
reach those figures. The test of pro-
hibition laws in Iowa and Kansas have
not been altogether satisfactory and II
would not be surprising if the prohibi.
ton party had already cast its highest
vote.

Frye Has No Fears.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 24.-It is not
probable that the senate will take any
action on the alleged intention OF
Great Britain to strengthen her armed
forces on the great lakes with war
vessels under the lseudonym OF reve-
nue. cutters. Senator Frye, chairman
of the committee on commerce, and n
leading member of the committee on
foreign affairs, who is "A recognized au-
thority in marine affairs, said the
present agitation OF the matter Is all
.'poppycock." Besides, he says, even
If it were true, he is positive he could
select twenty-five vessels on the lakes
that could within a very short time
be armed and equipped better than
the Canadian cutters are. 81 believe"
he said in conclusion, Great Britain
has not the slightest intention OF turn
ing her new revenue vessels into war

AFFECTS THE WOOL MARKET.

a few Democrats are candid enough
to sdmit that the election of Cleveland
means lower prices for wool and a con
sequent injury to one of the greatest
industries of Montana. Others don't
care, while a few try to look pleasant
and pretend to believe that wool will
bring just as good prices next summer
as it did last. The following letter re-
reived a few days since by George w.
Cook, from the we'll known wool firm
of Fenno Brothers & Childs, will show
what effect the election has already had
