have done. As the Board Of
County Commissioners, Mr.. COFFIN

ter have been publicly and Off

WOOL RATE REDUCTION.

Among the greatest difficulties
which men in this life have to
overcome are the established pref
udiees in their own minds. We all
regard the obliquity of other minds
with aversion and contempt but
loyalty cherish the bias Of our own
understandings. A feeling OF an
tagonism has grown up against
railroads of such a character and
intensity that anything of q COM
mendable turn said in their favor
is regarded With suspicion II not
actually denounced as venal. In
spite of this known antipathy, The
TRIBUNE is constrained to mention
with approval the action of the
Union Pacific in making such gen.
erous rate concessions to the wool
growers of Idaho. Announcement
of the great reduction in wool rates
from all points in Idaho was made in
Wednesdays TRIBUNE. 1t is but
proper to state that this was effeced
largely through the representations
of Mr.. FRANK GooD1NG, President
of the Idaho Wool Growers Asso-
citation, and the favorable DISPOSE
ton of officers of the railroad COM
pany. Mr.. GooD1NG's explanation
of the situation showing the great
reduction in values of woods and
decline in prices of wethers, mean
ing a loss to sheepmen of nearly
sixty.fve per cent, induced the
railroad officials to take the matter
in hand upon full investigation
they determined to do all in their
power to alleviate the conditions.
FINALLY it was determined to make
arrangements whereby Idaho woods
will be carried to the eastern mar
kets, all rail and without transfer.
The arrangement also includes the
privilege of shipping sacked wool
in car lots of 10000 pounds at the
same rate as baled wool which is
said to be a great benefit, appreci-
ated only by those actually en-
gagged in the business of handling
woods. The rates heretofore exist
ing on compressed wool were two
thirty-six baled and two ninety six
on sacked wool and the new rate, as
given, which became effective May
I'd will only be one dollar and
ninety cents per hundred ponds.
It is estimated that the clip Of
of Idaho this year will approximate
5000, 900 pounde and this rate will
prove a saving to the wool growers
over last year rates of about $780,
600. From expressions reported
from shippers at various points
along the line the people are highly
elated over this great concession in
rates and feel that the Union Pa
cific by this move has given a new
lease of life to this great state in
dustrv.

Salt Lake Tribune: The way the
average democratic editor contem-
plates the workings of the present
tariff, considering that the said ed
itor has endorsed Mr.. Cleveland in
everything, even his assertion that
the present tariff is loaded to the
muzzle with per6dy and dishonor,
makes one wonder what the condition
OF the said editor would be if there
had only been tariff bill passed
that had not been surcharged with
dishonor and perfdy. If the dem
ocratic editor is honest, aud takes
with such loving affection to this
tariff bill of perfdy and dishonor,
what would he do with clear,
clearcut tariff for revenue? He
could not grow any crazier than he
is. now, and in what manner would
his feelings be manifested? Or are
we reasoning from the wrong way?
Is it possible this average democratic
editor is rejoicing because the pre-
sent law is filled with per6dy and
dishonor, and so the editor feels at
home with it?

1t Has Been Discovered that the
Man of Iron Has
Record.
IN POLITICS AND BUSINESS.
The Republicans will CAPTURE
Everything i'm the State
Of Michigan.

Marcus DAILY, it is reported, SAYS
he expects to win the capital fight.
Just why, says the Helena Independ-
ent, is not very clearly shown. Ap-
parently he depends upon his Doodle
fund and the capability at romancing
possessed by himself and his follow
ers. The campaign that they are
making is entirely devoid of fact and
reason. The explanation is simple.
The facts are all against Anaconda,
and hence they do not deal in fact,
and positively no reason can be given
why the voters of Montana should
favor the smelter city.
But with all his air of confidence
there is one thing Mr.. DAILY forgets.
He forgets that he has personal re-
cord, and as the Anaconda capital
fight is his personal fight, his record
will necessarily have an important
bearing upon the result.
What is his personal record:
There are three lines he has been
engaged in-mining, business and
politics. His record in mining has
been to freeze out, squeeze out and
bluff out the owners of mining pro-
perty which he wanted to gobble up.
His record in business has been to
drive out competitions and ruin in
business, if he could, every concern
which competed with the DAILY storesat
Anaconda, and every man who had
the independence to think, speak and
vote accordingly to his own convic-
tions. His record in politics has
been that of traitor to every person
or party he dealt with. He first felt
his strength in politics in 1884 and
1886, and was then a democrat. In
1888, for personal grudge, he
turned all of his money and infu-
ence against the democratic con-
gressional ticket and defeated it
the first democratic defeat in Mon.
tana in almost twenty years. The
next biennial election he turned upon
his republican allies of two years be-
fore, and they went down. In 1892
he was in the capital fight, and did
not show his hand in politics till after
election. Then, to serve his own
personal revenge, by the free use of
money and the exertions of his plant
tools he broke democratic majority
in the Legislature and defeated the
election of democratic United
States senator.
Does Mr.. DAILY imagine, after all
this record of oppression of mining
claim owners, of arrogant monopoly
in business, and of perfdy and dis
honor in politics-that after all this
anybody is going to be fooled by his
promises of refinery works, railroads
and big enterprises of various kinds
for the benefit of those sections whel g
he. wants to roll up good vote for
Anaconda.
He may imagine it but he will be
woefully disappointed. The people
of Montana are getting mighty tired
of Mr.. DAILY aud his methods, and
after the election lie will have rea-
son to conclude it is better to give
his individual attention to the copper
smelling business.

Kirby Barnunh Tells OF Peril
Gus Trip down Thief
River, Mimi.
A STORY OF FIRE AND TERROR.
Interesting Financial Statistics
and General Items
of News.

Kirby Barnum, who owns farm
near the western border of the great
Red Lake Indian reservation in the
northern part of Minnesota,
has just returned from a perilious
trip down Thief river, which skirts
that reservation on the west. The
trip was made in small passenger
steamer that plies between the In
dian agency and Red river falls, a
distance of 100 miles. Fully half
of the trip was made between walls Of
fire. Barnum says the flames jump
cd Thief river and cut a swath
through dense forest fully sixty
miles wide. The whole country is
ahame. The steamer was forced
to go three or four miles at time,
and then everybody would get off
and stand in the water until the
fire and heat had abated some The
water in the river had been raised
to such temperature by the fire
that it's surface was covered with
millions of dead fish. Bear, deer
and other large game were fleeing
from the flames in great confusion.
Barnum says. the fire originated in a
blaze set by man who tried to get
control of some hay land from the
government, but failed, and hire
two men to set the fire. The flames
soon spread to the forest and have
been burning ever since.
