climbing upward for the past month.
On August s, it reached it's lowest point
in the record of the department-s52.
189,5OO Since that date it has increased
almost S5,Oc0,000, and the increase has
largely allayed the fears of treasury Of
hc1als. During the past week it has in
creased over s1,10O,00O. This increase
is accounted for by the surrender of
gold, voluntarily, by banks and its ex-
change for small notes. During the past
week. $216,000 have been so exchanged
The balance of the increase is due to
the purchase of bullion at Helena. Dem

Sunnydale voters are In line. There
is absolutely no dissffection in the pre-
cinct. and the Republicans will poll all
the votes but eight, of which two are
Democratic and six Populist.
Messrs. Bogue and Gleason spoke at
Adelaide Friday evening and received the
same rousing reception that has been
accorded Republican speakers everywhere.
A Populist named Spear, who had APP
peared before the Populists that afternoon
and advocated the issuance of $40, 600 900 a
month, was given fifteen minutes IN the
evening to answer Mr.. Gleason's monetary
argument, but he consumed the entire
time with inane vapor!ngs and never so
much as alluded TO the financial problem.
When Mr.. Bogue's turn came he disposed
OF the Populists in short order, TO the
great amusement of the gathering. Ade-

tricts. It contains few Democrats this
year, and those few will take the greatest
