THE YELL OF "WoLE"

From Messrs. Harvey Fisk & Sons,
dealers in United States bonds at "a
Nassau street, New York; we have re-
ceived a circular letter beginning Us
follows: "Our country is threatened
with one Of the greatest disasters since
the civil war. It's institutions are being
shaken to their foundations. The demon
distrust is stalking about the land, from
the Atlantic to the Pacific, leaving in
his trail the countless wrecks OF the
work of thousands of its honorable citi-
zens." The circular concludes by urg-
ing us to use all efforts to secure an
extra session of congress for the repeal
Of the Sherman Law.
We have to inform this firm of gold
bugs that M%ontanians can do nothing
for them. They cannot in Justice to
their families and homes encourage any
movement designed to shut down the
states greatest industry and take bread
from the mouths of her people; they
cannot listen to arguments designed to
protect Wall street manipulators at the
cost Of Montana labor.
The paragraph quoted Is a fine picture
OF the warfare against silver. The sole
purpose and intent is to scare the coun-
try into a panic and force congress into
adopting the first suggestion of relief,
no matter whether it be sensible or not.
1t is a campaign Of fright, started
months ago when western men were
pressed by eastern creditors who in turn
have been frightened up by the dumping
of American securities by foreign
holders. There are no legitimate causes
for this situation. Business conditions
at the beginning Of the year we're never
better. The earnings of railroads have
steadily increased, while the crop ex-
ports have set in earlier and promise to
be unusually large.
But in the face of these conditions,
and despite the closeness of the money
market the business interests of the
country are to be crowded still further
by cries of "wolf" when there is no wolf.
1t is the scare attempted by such people
as Messrs. Harvey Fisk IL Sons that
creates the stalking demon distrust"
and makes his march easier.

The slmon-Pure Gospel Wanted.

The gospel is the good news of salvation
through Jesus Christ. It is just that and
nothing more; it must not be made less.
The gospel suffers a sad injury at the hands
of those who make it q dogma of intel
lectual faith instead Of q message of love
and help from God to man. 1t is life, not
dead bones. Ii must not. in its presenta-
ton. be entanRled in a snarl of philo-
sophical statements. yelled in contradict
and viGo-. Nothing is so concrete. SO per-
sonal, go practical as the gospel. Nothing
abstract, vague or technical must be sub
stituted for it. To believe III a Saviour, to
trust and follow him-that is a very simple
matter. To rely for salvation on forms or
formulas. OF statements OF speculations
about Christ instenn of on Christ himself
that is sometimes very hard indeed.
We want. then, no e~masculated and no
metaphysical gospel. In the olden time
there were those who made void the Law by
their traditions; in the latter days there are
those who made void the gospel by their
'speculatioLs." 1t was of such that Paul
was thinking when he wrote: For Christ
sent me not to baptize but to preach the
not with wisdom of words. lest the
Cross of Christ should be made of none
II amy man be put in trust of the
gospel let him preach il, and preach it
and beware how he despoils it of
It's native viRor by mixing it with the re-
dnemsnts of human philosophy. If he is
tent to preach Christ. who ever liyeth to
intercessions for us, let him not
preach Aquinas. or Luther, or Calvin, or
or Channing-all dead long ago.

THE WEATHER.
GOOD DAYS WORK.

The silver conference was a grand
success. 1t was the finest gathering OF
representative Montanians ever seen in
Helena. In it's roll call were the names
Of our best citizens, mon known from
one end OF the country to the other as
builders of q new state, mine owners,
capitalists, bankers and statesmen. 1t
will be long remembered not only as a
convention Of noted Montanians but,
as we hope, for the fine results Of the
days work. This was we'll done, not
because there was 80 very much to do,
but because it was undertaken with
that spirited energy which characterszes
all successful enterprises IN this state.
The Montana Free Silver Association
was created to become a powerful factor
in the cause that is so closely identified
with Montana's prosperity. FL
The work was carried along the line
OF suggestions submitted by the leading
papers of the state. Organization was
the first object and this was accom-
plished without the weight OF unneces-
sary machinery. The management was
wisely placed in the hands Of q we'll
chosen and competent executive CON-
mittee. The association can be called
together at short notice whenever
needed. The only constitution is
montana for free silver" and
everybody knows what that means.
The most important BUSINESS at
hand is the selection OF
a large delegation to the convention OF
the Bi-Metallic league and the arrange
ment Of work when congress meets in
special session. Names and plans will
be announced by the committee in good
season. In the meantime, our people
may look forward with high hopes and
renewed confidence for satisfactory leg
islation at Washington. We do not
believe the Sherman law will be repealed
If it is repealed at all-without a sub
stitute recognizing the rights of silver
in the governments coinage of money
metals; we believe that the silver senti-
ment will grow stronger each day until
congress meets. The people of the great
producing states are thoroughly aroused
to action and will be found right in the
smoke of the enemys fire.
Montana has made a good start. Now
let the watch fires burn on every hill
and the flags be kept flying until the
is won.

the heir apparent to the British throne

the heir apparent to the British throne
to a young woman who was chosen ns
the bride of his brother, the late Prince
Albert Victor. Possessed Of youth and
fine health, and having only an aged
grandmother and a fathsr whose habits
are rot the best ahsad pt him, Prince
George doubtless ~foresses tew obstacles
and but a brief wait before he shall DO
crowned king OF Great Britain and en-
peror OF India.
The obstacles are not 90 Menacing at
this time, but are nevertheless suf1i-
GENTLY developed to puzzle the best stu
dents Of social affairs. The defeat Of
the Irish homo rule bill in the house OF
lords would cause the Gladstone party
to turn to the people, and it Is believed
that this would result in aholishing tho
upper house and even endanger tho OK
listing form OF government. Democracy
has grown at an astonishing pace in
England within recent years; already
there are many mutterings Of discon-
tent from those burdened to support
royalty. The prince OF Wales has
watched this trend Of sentiment and
has made himself popular by leaning
rather toward the side Of liberalism.
He knows full we'll that an uprising OF
English people against royal i%nstitu-
tions means the end forever. Prince
George, too, has studied this situation,
for on his first public appearance rs the
duke of York he aroused wide comment
by quoting democratic doctrine.
However, let us drop all forebodings
and fling tho rice Of good wishes and the
Of good luck in the wake OF
these young people. Each is SAID to be
amiable in manner and without the
naughty bearing which often makes
both offensive and oppressive;
united, they are said to please the
match makers. Long life and happi-
ness to them.
