1t Is Gradually Hieiding to the In fiuen ces
of the sun.
MIssoULA, Feb. 2S-The soft, sloppy,
spattery mud is gradually yielding to the
influence of the sun and wind, aided by
the efforts of George Fox, superintendent
of irrigation and drainage, and his as
sistants, and it is now possible to cross
the streets in some places without wading
through mud and water. The improve
ment is greatly appreciated by everybody
and the cloud of gloom and dependency
which settled upon the town when the
mud was at Its flood tide, has in meas
ure disappeared. Now that a man can
walk across the street without leaving his
rubbers sticking in the mud, there is a
noticeable decrease in profanity and
many men who have been driven TO drink
during the mud season have now begun
TO sober up.

Now Look Out.

John Sherman has come to tn,
front with currency plan
which was received in the Senate
with the most marked attention.
John represents the money power
of England and America. Wher
be speaks 1t is as though every
tondkolder, every alien Shylock
every .robber banker we're given 8
voice.. for he is their senatorial
mouth-picce.
Carlisle hoped to curry favor
with the money power and thus
secure a mortgage on the next
presidency by preparing curren-
ov bill in their interest, but he
can't hold a candle to the other
John in such matters.
The banks can trust John Sher-
nan.
He burned up greenbacks and
resumed specie payment to please
them
He fixed up the silver purchase
act to prevent the free coinage of
silver, and then knocked out bis
liver under-pinning when he had
the gold basis fully established.
He adroitly provided that silver
certificates and other government
paper should be paid only in gold,
ard thus gave the bankers their
patent, self-acting, never-ending
Eond-producer which is now sad
ding an enormous debt on the
coming generation.
John now has the floor; look out
for him; what he says goes.
Tie money power has the ut
most confidence in John Sherman.

to manifest itself in regard OF the at
titude assumed by the United States
in the Venezuelan ease. and newspapers
generally take the ground of support
ing President Cleveland. 1t is consid-
cred that his message is an echo of the
continental sentiment growing strong
er every year, which has expressed it
self in the motto: America for her
own Inhabitants One paper declares
that England must retreat before the
energetic manifestation of the senti-
ment of the people of the new world,
for it is not merely North America, but
all the Americas, who protest against
her iniquitous attempt to seize the
soil of Venezuela. The principle which
President Cleveland has enunciated
will find an echo among all the inhab-
itants of this hemisphere. Monroe
doctrine is now the doctrine of the en-
tire continent. This is a fair sample
of public opinion. MeXicans still re-
sent what they consider as unjust Eng
lish occupation of Belize, which Mexi-
can historians and statesmen have al
most invariably held to be Mexican
soil. The press here has long opposed
the granting of Belize to England in
any formal way, but it has been rec
ognized that she could not be expelled
by force, and so the policy of silent
protest has been adopted.

SILVER RESOLUTIONS.
White MetaIIists Will Fight for
Their FaNOrite.

WASHINGTON, Dec. q. - The
session of the senate today was
notable in bringing about a very
pointed statement from Mr.. Dubois,
who was understood to voice the
views of the silver element in the
senate, that no financial legislation
was possible along the lines desired
by President Cleveland, and siren
uously urged in the message of last
evening. 1t was patent to every SEN
ator, Mr.. Dubois said, and should be
understood by the country, that the
presidents desire for the retirement
of the greenbacks or the authoriza-
ton of a bond issue were utterly i'm
possible of accomplishment. The
only action the senate would take, if
it was given the opportunity to vote,
would be to adopt the resolution of
Mr.. Vest Oem., Mo-, offered earlier
in the day, directing the coinage of
silver bullion in the treasury and
the payment of government obliga-
tions in silver. The only immediate
response to the presidents message
was in the presentation of two reso-
lutions favorable to silver, that by
Mr.. Vest and another by Mr.. Butler,
the new Populist member from North
Carolina, proposing gold payments
while the metals were at parity
and silver payments when gold was
at premium. The resolution offered
by Mr.. Vest was as follows:
Resolved, That the secretary of the
treasury is hereby directed, in pursu-
ance Of the existing law investing him
with full power to do SO. to coin as
rapidly as possible the silver bullion
In the treasury purchased under the
act of July IA, 1890, into standard silver
dollars, and with such dollars to re-
deem, cancel and retire the treasury
notes of the United States of July IA,
1890, issued in the purchase of such
bullion, and also to redeem the United
States notes commonly called green
backs, in standard silver dollars, as
well as in gold, using whichever may
be most abundant and convenient"
Mr.. Vest asked immediate considera-
ton of the resolution, but Mr.. Plat
Rep., Comm objected, and the subject
went over,

s.y.e he went to the White house Sec
Representatives McCreary, of Ken
lucky, and Densmore, Of Arkansas.
There is every Indication that the
president will proceed Immediately
to the selection of the commission to
locate the Venezuelan boundary line.
In view of the great Importance of
the work to be discharged by this
commission it is said that the presi-
dent will endeavor to secure the
services of men of the highest char
acter and ability. None of the
names he has in mind have been Off
cially mentioned, nor will they be
until the president has been notified
by the persons selected of their
acceptance Of the high commission.
1t is intimated, however, that, in
view of the fact that the work in
some respects may be Of a technical
nature, there may be on the list the
name of an army engineer official
or a naval officer. There is also a
probability that it may be neces-
sary for the commission to visit
Madrid and The Hague in order
to obtain access to the ancient Off
cial records Of the Spanish and Dutch
claims inherited by Great Britain
and Venezuela.
( The state department has been in
formed by some persons Of repute
who have made a study Of the sub
ject, that there is good ground for
the belief that, upon careful scrutiny,
the claim of Venezuela to the terri
tory in dispute on the border will be
found to be without solid founda-
tion, and that the commission will
be obliged to find that Great Britain
is in fact really entitled to the pos
session of the whole tract claimed
by her and perhaps more territory.
These representations, however, have

SILVER MEN VERY ACTIVE.
THEY WILL HAVE FAVORABLE
LEGISLATION OR NONE AT
ALL.
Possibility That the Problem Will
BE Solved by an Issue of Such
No Recess in Sight.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 81. = Most
or the members of the house We're
| all at sea today as to what should
be done in response to the appeal
| Of the presidents message for a
means of protecting the gold re-
| serve, but there was a unanimity
| that congress should stay here and
face the situation. The Democrats
were disposed to await the action of
the Republican majority, and the
latter seemed ready to shoulder the
burden. Here and there a member
was found who was willing to vote
for gold bonds, but the overwhelming
sentiment on both sides of the house
was that the passage of a gold bond
bill was impossible, as 1t would be
bitterly fought by the silver men.
Some Republicans were inclined to
couple with any bill to enable the
government to borrow money prop
ositions for raising revenue by
amending the tariff law, but the gen.
eral sentiment seemed to be in favor
of low-rate intereSt-bearing long
time coin bond of small denomina-
ton, which was thought the people
of the country would eagerly sub
scribe for, to aid the treasury in its
emergency. Just such a PROPOSE
ton, it will be remembered, Mr.. Reed
offered in the last congress. Speaker
Reed feels the responsibility very
keenly. He realizes that the situa-
tion in the senate and the majority
for silver there in nowise relieves the
house, and that the action of the
house must be independent of the re-
suit at the other end of the capitol.
The house committees were an
nounced today and the committee
on ways and means will Immediately
go to work. 1t is not impossible that
the Republicans will hold a caucus
DETERMINED SILNERITES.
A partial canvas of the silver men
in the senate, made among Repub-
. licans, Democrats and Populists
alike, reveals decided disposition
to couple silver legislation with any
measure for the relief of the treas
ury that may be offered. Messrs.
Cockrell, Teller, Dubois, Pritehard,
Pettigrew, Baker and Butler all said
that the secretary of the treasury
had the means for meeting the emer-
gency in his own hands, which was
in paying out silver and coming the
silver in the treasury. They were
likewise agreed upon the PROPOSE
tion that they would not consent to
give further authority for the issu-
ance of more interest-bearing bonds.
They did not even display willing
ness to authorize the short-time GER
tificates of Indebtedness proposed
last session. They expressed the
opinion that the continuance of con-
gress in session during the holidays
would bring no relief. Some of the
Republicans, however, expressed a
willingness to remain, with the hope
that the tariff legislation might be
promoted. They are not, however,
as class, disposed as yet to dis
cuss the practicability of trading
bond legislation for changes in the
tariff.

NEW YORK, Dec. 21.-The World
tomorrow will publish the following
cable from Caracas, Venezuela: ,.
"The anti-English feeling is in
creasing here. Fresh flowers are
placed daily on the statue of Wash
ington, and the American and Vene-
zuelan flags are everywhere to be
seen, either displayed side by side
or entwined in significant embrace,
with the portraits Of Washington

Another mass meeting was held
on the Plaza Bolivar this morning
at which were heard the cry, Down
with the Englishp Long live Cleve-
land and the United States!' A dem
onstration of all the citizens is
planned to take place in few days
under the auspices of the Simon Boil

en- to the president, his cabinet and.
American residents Of Caracas will
then return the honor paid to their
nation and the tributes offered to
Washington by decorating the sta-
tue Of Bolivar, the liberator.'
The Patriotic Society of the Defense

a protest against the pretensions
and aggressions of England. 1t also
requests. the minister of foreign af-
fairs to remove the exequaturs of
Venezuelan citizens who are acting
as British consuls in this country,
unless they resign Immediately. In
Guayara the enthusiasm has led to
the forming of battalions ready for
service.
'"The honors paid to the American
minister continue. The archbishop
and the clergy of Caracas called on
him today to express their thanks
and those of the people to the United
States for the stand taken by Pres
ident Cleveland. Venezuela is send

AT 1 o'clock the senate went into
executive session. When the doors
were reopened Mr.. Stewart took the
floor for a sharp criticism of the presi-
dents financial message He said the
presidents upholding of the Monroe
doctrine had placed him on high lev
ell, but the message of last evening had
suddenly reduced him to a very low
level. The United States had the re-
sources to create money for any emer-
gency. Wars were not fought on ~
gold OASIS. 1t was the inherent
strength of nation that won victories.
England had maintained her position
during the Napoleonic wars by plac-
ing fiat on the bills of the Bank Of
England. Let the president once an
nounce that United States obligations
would be paid in silver and there would
be no further raids on the. treasury.
Ii London wanted financial war we
could meet it,
Mr.. Dubois Rep., Idaho) regretted
that the president had felt called upon
to send in such a financial message al
this time. The president must know
that he cannot accomplish either a re-
.tirement of the greenbacks or the au-
thorizatfon of bonds. The only posi-.
BILE result would be to precipitate a tar
iff agitation. And, so far as financial
legislation is concerned the country
should understand, as every senator
here understands, that as soon as the
senate had an opportunity it WouId
adopt the resolution offered TODAY hv
Mr.. Vest, to coin silver bullion and nav
government obligations in silver. Sem
ators knew this measure would be
adopted if brought to a vote. Mr. Du-
bois referred to the hopeless situation
presented by the presidents message
a situation impossible to remedy bv
immediate legislation, as the president
and every man conyersant with public
affairs was well aware.
A letter from Secretary Olney gave Al
congratulatory cablegram from the
Brazilian senate, just sent through
Minister Mendinca, of Brazil. on Pres
ident Cleveland's recent enunciation Of
the Monroe doctrine. 1t is as follows.
The federal senate of the United
States of Brazil sends its greeting to
the senate of the United States upon
Cleveland, who so strenuously guards
the dignity, sovereignty and the free
dom Of the American nations"
Mr.. Proctor (Rep., Vt) submitted a
resolution asking the secretary of war
to submit information as to what
amount could be profitably expended
for coast defenses up to July, 1897. The
resolution went over.

until next Tuesday.
