DOUGH-FACED DECEIT,

The republican party boasts of having
freed 100000 black slaves. 1t has
since made 10000, 900 white slaves,
whose present condition is much worse
than was that of the colored man and
brother. The mission of the populist
party is to free the white scrfs and it
will do it.
The above hyperbolical statement
appears in the columns af the Butte
(Pop.) Tribune. 1t is not original
with the editor of that paper as the
same has been offered by several
democratic editors within the last
three months; more particularly to
excuse their party and its consum-
mately assinine administration. 1t is
enough, however, to condemn the
populist party that they so train with
the party in power as to charge the
"outs' with everything that exists at
the present time. The dough-face
will be removed and the "democratic
aid society" will never be in it.

ton of slavery-after it had been ac-
complished. 1t Endorsed the resumption
of specie payment-after it had resumed.
1t indorsed putting tea and coffee on the
free %list--after they had been put there.
1t Endorsed Reeds rules-after it found
it could not do business without them.

Big Timber Pioneer: The Mon
tana Coxeyites are now on their way
to FIT. Benton, where they will build
fiat boats and gently glide down the
Missouri river eating the bread that
was earned by the industry of some
M else. There was a scheme to
colonize them on lands in eastern
Montana. Money to buy them tools
and get them started in the farming
business was to be furnished by the
people of Butte, but the Coxeyites
did not want that kind of IA life
there was entirely too much work
about it.

been able to discern, the only popu-

who are disguised with Cleveland

election, so in Choteau county, the
populists, though here fewin number,
seem to all come from democratic
ranks.

able officer when elected.

SILVER N TARIFF.

AAS Az A<11SxE
Dun's Weekly Trade Review fur
nishes the following bit of interest
ing statistics:
Specie movements.-Past week :-Sil-
yer exports $76S,007, imports $4S,495:
gold exports $6,5S5,96O, imports 1 ,254,-
O2G. Since January 1:-Silver exports
$13,971,298, imports $564,715; gold ex-
ports S29,674,775, imports S., Jas.
This shows that for the past week
the imports of silver have been but
+ per cent Of their exports; while of
gold, imports have been 10 per cent
of their exports. For the time since
January l, the imports of silver have
been but 4 per cent of the exports,
and the gold shows imports 90 per
cent of exports. Silver exports are
4o per cent Of gold exports and sill
yer imports 7 per cen of gold i'm
ports.
This leads up to the question as to
where all the silver goes to. Ac-
cording to Sir Moreton Frewen, the
Mexican dollar and Indian dollar are
legal tender all over China. They
are taken at their face value in ex-
change for products and some are re-
coined into the native currency. At
Bombay is a mint which coins Mex
lean dollars into rupees. Most of
the silver that leaves our ports goes
to Russia for use in it's Siberian trade
and in the overland trade with Ash
attic countries where it is practically
worth 15I to 1 in relation to gold.
So this country loses nearly 60 cents
on each n which goes to enrich
the Russian Government. The bull
lion which Great Britain receives is
coined into shillings and realizes
proportionally to that country, a fact
which u country faces and suffers
with lamb-like weakness. But the
next statement of Dun's report shows
up the f%arcical action of the present
administration in a splendid light:
Duties paid here this week, $1,479,-
~ re np fn11nua. IIa1,, INF nOS
729.SG; gold, S2,6O7.5O; gold certificates,
500; Treasury notes, $4,000, lcgals,
$127,S50; silver, $l,o66; silver
certificates $170,9OO.
Carlisle administers the finances
of the country. He has power to re-
ceive gold or it's equivalent in the
payment Of import duties. The
above statement shows that this week,
the duties amounting to one and one
half million, were paid in gold or its
equivalent as follows: Checks, 73
per cent; treasury notes, 6 per cent;
greenbacks, 8 per cent; silver certi-
f%icates, II per cent approximately,
with but a fraction of l per cent of
said duties paid in gold. This great
philosopher of the treasury still
wonders why the gold goes out of
the county and is figuring upon
another big bond issue to meet the
emergency which threatens the gold
reserve. We are praying for a
change of administration or a speedy
return of the fool kill, and it matters
little which.

River Press: When the president
and senate were republican the dem
ocratic house passed a free lead ore
bill and a free wool bill, knowing
at the same time the bill could never
pass the senate. Now the demo-
Gratis are afraid to pass any kind of a
tariff bill; and will not even consider
one unless it is loaded down to the
guards with protective measures.

The happy adoption by democrats

The happy adoption by democrats
in congress of Reeds rules in parlia-
mentary practice has given that
statesman the courage to announce
his stand on the currency question.
1t is for free and unlimited coinage,
restricted by a reciprocal trade favor
ing those countries who give silver
the place in their financial economy
equal with gold. This is sensible,
safe and wise, but our democratic
friends are already saying that Reed
is shooting off his mouth only for
campaign purposes.

ABOUT THAT ROAD CONTRACT.

Not being able to find any other
cause for complaint at this end of
the county, the White Sulphur
Springs papers continue to slap this
section and it's residents on the score
of the already famous road contract.
The H~usbandman hintingly expects
the road will be open for travel with
in a week or ten days, when in fact
the road has been open to travel for
the past six weeks, teams making
the trip daily with the u. S. mail.
Ever since the new mail contractors
accepted their job the mail, as those
editors know, has come and gone
with surprising regularity, while the
company in charge has also trans
ported all passengers between Nei-
hart and White Sulphur Springs.
Our people have blessed the day that
these men took the contract to carry
the mail as it comes to light that the
failure of the former mail contractor
was due to his vain attempt to drive
"a miles IA day over a mountain
range with only three horses. AL
though the pass of the summit this
winter has been quite difficult we be-
lieve there have been few times with
in a year when a good team could
not get through.
The esteemed News reprints the
Husbandman's expectation that the
road will be open for travel in a
week or ten days and all the time
teams are making the entire Journey
daily. The News then turns about
and attacks II. j. Skinner and Jas.
Z. Blandlng two enterprising men
of Neihart, in IA scurrilous manner,
charging these gentlemen with in no
way complying with the terms of
the contract. The editor of the
News bases his charge upon what
someone told him, and the informant
was wilfully ignorant, or IA wilful
falsifer, or both. We are not dis
cussing any irregularities which
might have figured in the commits
sioners' proceedings. 1t is with ref
erence to the manner in which tho
contract for keeping open the road
has been fulfilled. The News says,
cleans cannot 90 to Neihart and
have not gone to Neihart since the
contract was let" And all the time
the mail stage with whatever passen-
gers there happened to be has gone
through daily.
Desiring to know the truth, the
HERALD interviewed three disinter-
ested parties in reference to the con
dltlon of the road, and each for him
self says the road is in better shape
today than is usual at this season of
the year. These informants are G..
w. Brown, w. L. Cook and VIM.
Brown, all disinterested parties who
have crossed the divide by private
conveyance within the past two
weeks and so know what the News
does not know.
Both Skinner and Blanding are
justly indignant because of the arti-
Gle in the News. They can prove the
expenditure to date of S61 more
money than the contract TO date calls
for. In face OF the fact that Bland
ing is an experienced road engineer,
equal in ability 10 any nan in the
county, we are convinced that the
outlay has been iudicious and that
the county has'had a square deal at
the hands of Skinner and Banding.
