Instruction from u Former
Citizen of Neihart.
IT WILL BE READ WITH INTEREST.
Mr.. Mueller Offers the Ncihart
Silver Club Some PO-
tent Suggestions.

Allen Plerse, treasurer of Meagher
county is also treasurer of the Nei.
hart Silver Club. Which once receiv-
ed vote of thanks of the State Bi-
metallic League for raising more
money than any other cub in Mon
tana outside of Butte, for the adj
vancement of education in Bimetall-
ism. Mr.. Pierse has just received a
letter from VIM. Muller now in
Chicago, an extract of which we pub
lish. 1t is full of lively facts and
appeals to the active sense of every
bimetallist in the state: 1t reads:
TIE LETTER.
Chicago, ILL.,, Apr. 2, 1895.
Mr.. ALLEN PIERsE,
Dear sir: Mr.. w. H. Harvey,
the able author of "Coin's Financial
School," who has done more than
any other man in the cause of bimet-
alism tells me that he has never re-
ceived any financial aid from the
Coinage League and that Coins
Office here has been self sustaining
through the sale Of the books, but
the Bmetallic club here would like
to branch out, especially into fields
farther east, where it is more neces-
sary to distribute the books. They
have a tremendous sale within 300
or 400 miles of Chicago, and they
will sell wherever they are pushed.
We have made arrangements to
to translate Coins Financial School
into German and it will be first pub
lshed in a daily and weekly German
paper here, which has large circu-
lation in the surrounding states; then
it is to be publishes in book form.
Fortunately the editor is an enthusi-
astic bimetallist, who is willing to
sacrifice much for it's success, and it
will not cost anything.
The book is also to be tsanslated
into Bohemian, and Norwegian But
what Mr.. Harvey and Mr.. Bowen,
the secretary of the Chicago Bimetall-
ic club would like to do is to carry
the war farther east; and as of course
the press in that section is unfrend-
ly to the cause, it will require little
more money, perhaps only $500 for
each of several central points. AS
this is very important matter |
would mention it to you as an officer
of the Neihart Silver club, and You
can have the secretary of the club
correspond with the various clubs in
Montana, all of which | think will
assist. For it must be understood,
that the international monetary con
ference will be success unless
Cleveland and his gang assume a
sandbagging attitude, which is not
probable, but still it may happen.
And in that case the battle will have
to be fought out next year. And if
with the help of comparatively little
money, these books can be distribut-
ed among the masses in the east, we
will win an overwhelming victory;
for wherever this book has appeared
it has made converts, and wherever
you go here in the city, or on the
railroad, and among farmers, you
will hear, ''Have you read Coin:
What do you think of it:" "Well, |
must confess that never dreampt
that such was the case," and so forth
have promised these gentlemen
that ! will not only assist in the
cause myself, but | will endeavor to
enlist the aid and sympathy of the
people in Montana, for they would
certainly receive a great benefit
from this work. You will greatly
oblige by calling the attention of
the secretary of our club in Neihart
to this so that he can take the neces-
sary steps. Yours truly,
WM. MUELLER,
p. O. Box $50.

club must not pass the occasion un-
needed. We must meet and act
