POSTMASTER GENERAL BIssELL said
to a gentleman, who inquired tho other
day why a postmaster in Georgia who
has served twenty years had been re-
moved: "IIe has been removed because
hereafter four years will be considered
a torn, and he has served much longer
than that" Every man who goes into
the public service should have a fixed
tenure Of office, il he attends to his du-
ties properly and is competent, but not
a life place. II four years is enough for
the head OF an administration, 1t is
enough for those who serve under it.

In that best of all tests OF growth and
financial solidity, the clearing house
statements of tho different cities OF the
country, Helena makes a proud record.
For the past month, as compared with
the same period last year, the weekly

Last week, when Seattle showed a fall
ing off of 80 per cent, Salt Lake of IS
per cent, Minneapolis of a per cent,
st. Paul Of IS per cent. and Great Falls

nearly II per cent. over the correspond

Against All Day Work,

A writer in the Contributors club in the
May Atlantic" chatacterizss aa u social
heresy the notion thar a man ought to wo.k
steady all day long:
1.-The s%pasmodic method of the clergy
man ID the natural method. The beast OF
prey, for example, does not spend his
whole time. day after day, pottering about
the forest in q routine manner. On the
contrary. he goes off for a vigorous, we'll
sustained hunt, and then. having gorged
himself OH the proceeds. he lies down
to rspose aud meditation. until some
further and pressing necessity for &C.
ton arises. Great men-who are always
much closer to nature than ordi-
nary men-follow the same plan. Daniel
Webster, for example, never const. ucted
his stupendous legal and forensic arau-
ment by so many days work. rs the
phrase ia. Gully separated by eight hours'
sleep every night. His habit was, after
preparing himself by a slight dose of medi-
cine, n long nap, and a moderate repast, to
perform his task by one mighty and con-
tinuous effort. And Mr. Webstet's capn-
city for loaGng between whites was as mon.
umsntal as his intellect. Ex%traordinar

at is a remarkable fact, too, that as civ
i~!isa:ion advances, the spasmodic insteat
of the routine system of labor begins t.
recur. English professional mon OF tn
present day work very hard while they ar
at it. but they take long vacations. Nor
work is lone now than formerly, but It j

pose are longer. Thus extremes tend /

centuries hence will doubtless appro1imat

THE American newspaper, we are
sorry to see, is beginning to show the
effect OF too much perusal of the novel
of the period. Here is tho Washington
Post, speaking of the editorial page of q
New York contemporary as one OF the
brilliant hooks of American journalism
We suppose tho New York paper will
return the compliment by speaking Of
the Posts editorial page as "a bosky

THE Fargo fire and it's causes should
be studied in Helena. Right in the
heart of this city there are old tumble
down board fences and heaps of rubbish

add fuel to flames, and in n high wind

them. And what ia true of the buHiness

The Sherman law is a fraud. 1t has
worked disaster to our silver interests
and the sooner it is repealed, the better
provided always that n decent sub
s~titute, which recognizes silver as
money, is offered for it. We cannot un-
derstand, though, why it is that certain
of the newspaper champions of silver
have become sentimental about the law
which has done SO much mischief to the
white metal.

Col. AINswoRTH, chief Of the record

of his Office, winning the praise and ap-
prevail of men of all parties, that
public opinion will be slow to condemn
him for any fault for the terrible calam-
ity in the old theater building the other
day. At least, judgment should be sus-
pended until Col. Ainsworth is heard in
his own behalf.

WHATEVER else may be said against
an income tax. the point that it would
be difficult to collect is not we'll taken.
The experience Of other countries has
demonstrated that it can be collected as
easily as any other tax. or course many
men will lie about their income, but the
majority of men are not liars and 1t Is
easy for the government to ascertain
pretty nearly their annual revenue.

Progress of Missions.

That missions are making great head
way is a patent fact. Japan is in rapid
process of evangelism In northern
India there has been a remarkable re-
vival, with thousands of conversions
One striking proof of the progress
being made is supported by the fact
that the great false religions of the
world are stirring up riotous opposition
to the missionaries. This is the case in
Hindostan, in Japan, in China, and es-
pecially among the Moslem popula-
items Any active forward movement
in the kingdom of Righteousness is
quite certain to provoke corresponding
activity OF opposition in the kingdom
of unrighteousness. When there is a
ciamor for advance among good men,
devils come out to silence it The
enemy most to be dreaded by the Chris
tan church is indifference. Opposition
advertises the truth and shows that it
is taking told.

TO CONCEAL THE FRAUDS
The Sullivanites Do Not Want the DEM
ecratic Committee to Discuss Them.
COMMITTEES Meeting Called for Next Tuesday
EVENING" Delegate Explains the Posi-
tion of the Sulliysnites in The Affair.


Sim Coy Said ro Have bone the Planning
for Jhe Recent Sullivan Coup.
The Democratic city committee will meet
on Tuesday to elect a chairman. and at that
time the frauds st the recent convention
will be discussed. Some of the Democrats
are clamOring for q new convention. but
the Suliivanites do not want any more
light thrown on the frauds which they
have perpetrated. They want the commit
tee to indorse the candidates or else
name two men TO take the places of
Messrs. Laut and White. who were not
fairly nominated by the convention. The
Sullivanites are greatly worried. for they
fear that the expose of their schemes at
the Democratic convention will defeat the
ticket this fall. The clean Democrats who
supported Sullivan before. believing that
be was not tied up with the machine. are
now very indignant and the managers are
valnly attempting TO nse the party lash on
this class.
As the days 90 by il is becoming more
and more apparent to the mass of the Demo-
cratic party that a confidence game was
worked by the Sullivan machine. The
delegates who supported Tom Markey and
Dan Monninger are the most indignant of
the dissatisfied element. because they be-
heve their favorltes were defeated by the
day that unless new convention was
called no proposed TO vote ana work against
the Sullivan machine ticket.
The SullivnDites," said he, "were afraid
of White after they had wiped him 0us
with Sim Coy. and they decided TO placate
him. even il they had TO resort TO the NEST
outrageous sw indies ever tried in a Demo
cratic conventions in MLrion county. 1t
was not until after White had repeatedly
refused TO be n candidate that the Sullivan
1tes determined TO force him on the tioket
and make him believe that there was q
general demand for his csndidacy. Sim
Coy. Suliivan's ally. was called IN tn ex-
plain the manner of working a scheme.
Int they were slick enough TO keep Sim in
she background. for, If it WINS known tbat
she ex-convict was in the deal. IL would
queer the entire plan. Sim furnished the
brains and they awkwardly attempted to
carry ont a scheme that required mis- deft
hand. | think Sullivan started out
in local politics with his hands
free. but the gang has so thoroughly OBJ
tanned control of him that be is part
and parcel of one of tho most dangerous
machines eyer established in this country.
He has even stomached Buskirk, and that
IL more than any other Democratic lawyer
in Indianapolis would do. IL he was called
on to make "A political race on o municipal
tIoket IN this town."
