Tom Reed in a recent speech ex-
pressed himself as follows: "When
mills shutdown they shut down because
they must ascertain by Democratic
legislation what the basis of their future
manufactures is to be. II their basis
is to be competition with foreign coun-
tries upon less favorable terms they
will be obliged to meet those less favor
able terms by reducing the cost Of man.
ufactures themselves. The cost OF
manufactures, of the finest kinds es,
pecially. is largely in the pay which is
given to laboring men. AS the gentle.
man from Mississippi (Catchings) has
very csndidly and at the same time
very accurately said, the wages of labor
have been steadily rising in this coun.
try until they have reached a point un'
exampled in the history of the world
up to this time"

NO T SESSION.

The indications now are that Gov
ernor Richards will not call an extra
session OF the legislature. In reaching
this decision we believe the governor
is acting for the best interests OF the
entire state. This call for ar extra
session comes from the Democratic
press and w. A. Clark's gang OF
claquers. The people have not for
gotten how valuable time and thous-
ands of dollars in money was wasted
last winter in a Democratic deadlock.
1t was within the power OF the Demo-
Gratis to elect a senator at any time
and had they been as patriotic as
they pretend to be now, Montana
would have had full representation in
congress at present. Now the people
are asked to urge the governor to call
an extra session that they may again
renew the farcial proceedings and in
volve the state in ar expense of from
$40, 900 to $4,000. II the Democ-
racy was so anxious for a sena-
tor why didn't they elect one when
they had an opportunity The pre-
text that we must have another vote
in Washington to save silver is the
merest subterfuge, for one vote will
not decide the matter either way,
while in all probability a vote will be
reached before our legislature could
be convened, particularly if there must
be elections in the counties newly
formed, which is contended.
Furthermore, We don't believe the
people of Montana want to see a
Democratic senator in Washington,
even if it were possible to elect one in
two days after the converting OF the
legislature. Great as our silver inter
ests are. Montana has other indus
tries that must not be Jeopardized by
adding one more vote to the party oil
free trade and no wages.
The next senator from Montana
should be a Republican and opposed
to free wool.
1t is intimated that w. A. Clark has
been in Washington quietly working
against Mantle among the Democrats,
believing that if Mantle was shelved
Gov. Richards would be forced to call
an extra session., when Mr.. Clark
would stand a show of election. The
people became heartily disgusted with
the last legislature and do not care to
see it assemble again. If there was q

for lighting the building. As we have
court sessions only once in three
months and generally no evening SEES
sions at all, or if held are very brief, it
would seem that $50 for the light re-
quired in m quarter was not in the
line of economy. As to light in the
various offices, several of the officials
state there is very little use for them
as they are seldom called to their
offices at night for any purpose. 1.-THE
lights were furnished on the metre sys-
tenn and a charge made according to
usage it might prove as economical as
oil, but we believe any of our merchants
would agree to furnish the county coal
oil for 500 a year and perhaps for less.
We do not wish to pose as a kicker.
We admire the enterprise of the gen.
tlemen who have put in the plant and
wish them success. but considering the
little demand for light at the court
house, the necessity for economy in
public expenditures and the depressed
times, we regard the light at present
cost as too much Of a luxury.

Senator Hill, who is one of the
smoothest demagogues in the United
States, made a speech = few days since
on the silver question which is in
tended to ''catch 'em comm and
goin'." But Mr.. Hill presumes too
much upon the ignorance of the peo-
pie if he imagines they cannot detect
his purpose. He has been counted as
fsvoring free coinage but there is
nothing in his speech that leads one to
believe him sincere. In the course of
his speech he said: 1.-THE temporary
relief which the country needs at this
hour is the prompt repeal of the Sher-
man law. We can discuss our none
tary theories afterwards. Our duty
now is to stop further silver purchase
and relieve the almost bankrupt treas
ury from the drain of gold out of its
vaults" Surely no one in the mining
states can find in the above utterance
anything reassuring. Mr.. Hill cannot
favor a larger use of silver than that
already given by the Sherman law.

1t is no often that Republicans find
anything to commend in VIM. NJ.
Springer of Illinois. But his recent ut
terances relative to the removal of the
tax on state banks are to the point. 1t
is evident hat a considerable portion
of his party will be disappointed if
they rely upon his aid in flooding the
country with unsafe money. Perhaps
Mr.. S~pringer's views were unknown
when he was removed from the chair
manship of the ways and means conn.,
mittee and placed at the head of that
of banking and currency. However
that may be he does not hesitate to de-
clare his position. In a recent inter-
view Mr.. Springer is reported to have
said: "For my own part, | am opposed
to the removal of the tax upon state
banks. / do not believe in going back
to the days of the old state banking
system, and of being compelled to have
forty-four different kinds Of currency
in this country. L remember very
well, when II young man, what great
difficulty there was in ~transacting busl-
ness because of the different kinds of
currency. The removal of the tax
upon state banks and the re-establish-
mont of the old system would be an
obstruction to business. /, for one, am
against it, and | do not believe that
such a bill can pass. l believe IN a
currency that is as good in n state as
in another. do not wish to be COM
PEELED to trace every note that receive
in a book to ascertain whether the
bank by which it p%retends to be issued
issues notes of that denomination,
whether the bank has too much CAPT
tai, and to trace it down AS we did in
the old days. L favor astable currency
good alike in all the states, accepted
without question everywhere, familiar
to the people, and printed upon such
paper that counterfeits can be readily
detected. Any other currency is an
obstruction to business and / shall
oppose it."

No Camp This Year.

The governor on Monday wrote a
letter to Adjutant General Lloyd to
the effect that the proposed encamp-
ment of the national guard, which was
to have been held from Sept. 8 to
Sept. Is at Fort Ellis. would not take
place. The adjutant general is di-
rected to countermand the order for
the encampment. Gov. Richards
found upon investigation that over
$4,000 of the state funds were locked
up in suspended banks. While it is
amply secured and will at some time
be at the disposal of the state. it is
not available just now. Hence the
necessity for abandoning the encamp-
ment this year. The amount appro-
priated for that purpose for 1898
will, when it becomes available, lie in
the treasury until the next legislature
transt' 3 it by law to some other
fund.

very much the economy or necessity
of these lights in the county building.
1t is not a building in which night
work is engaged in to any extent-the
occasion for light of any kind being
very rare. We understand about 26
lights have been placed in the building,
ten of them in the court and jury
rooms. The cost Of putting in the
lights I o start with has been $50.
The cost per month for each light is
