In the east Montana presents the re-
markable spectacle of a state of one
hundred and fifty thousand people, i'm
poverished by the demonstration Of
silver: rich enough to spend two mil
lion dollars, more or less, in a fight for
the permanent location Of its capital,
but yet too poor to raise a paltry $751;
600, her share of the $50, 900, with
which it is proposed to conduct a Cam
paign of education in the interest of
silver, one of her principal products.
What must the enthusiastic silver men
of the east think of us. With such an
interest at stake, Montana could we'll
afford to raise three or four times Sl5.-
600. Butte is the only town that has
made an effort to raise her proportion.
and the greatest mining camp on earth,
the commercial heart of Montana, quit
on a meagre 81, 900. 1t took Colorado
an hour to raise her proportions: Utah
was a good second, and the silver world

Long started to find his man, who was

saw Brown he pulled a revolver, and Brown
shot him with a shotgun, emptying both
barrels at short range. The sheriff At Ben

live to regret his recent ''object lesson

ways, from an administration point OF

A SILVER BOW HANGING.
Tired Of Life . Prisoner Does the Job
Himself.

Tired of Life = Prisoner Does the Job
Himself.
1t is SO seldom that a hanging occurs in
Silver Bow county, that when one does
occur it is worth mentioning. The Butte
Inter Mountain OF last Tuesday says:
William Fitzgerald committed suicide
in the county Jail this morning about 10
minutes to 8 O'Clock by hanging.
He was arrested Saturday evening in
Jonathan Blaks's saloon, corner ct Galena
and Main streets, and taken to the Jail on
a charge of insanity. All day Sunday he
was continually talking about someone
who was trying to hang HIM, and seemed
to be so excited aboutlt that the jailors took
the precaution to put him IN the "bsx carr
the cell nearest the Jail Office, SO they could
watch him. They had no idea, however,
that he would attempt to do himself any
bodily injury. This morning about 5
O'Clock Jallor Cook heard an unusual noise
in the cell and, running in. found Fitz-
gerald lying on the floor. He had torn a
strip from his blanket and tied one END to
an iron cross beam IN the ceiling and the

ably stood on the sink to adjust the knot
and when he jumped off the blanket broke
from his weight, and he fell to the floor.
He was almost unconscious when found
but soon revived, and laid down on his
couch. Jailor Cook demonstrated with
him and he promised faithfully that he
would behave himself and not try to hang
himself again.
Everything was quiet for a while, and
Mr.. Cook was relieved by Will Walton at
7 O'Clock. He did not leave his Office, how
ever, but stopped to tell Mr. Walton OF
what had taken place. While they were
talking, Blodgett, who is in cell 3 facing
the Office, called out: "The d fool is
trying to hang himself again."
Both %jailors ran in and found the prison.
er lying down and everything quiet. He
denied having tried to hang himself again
but Blodgett il sure that he did. After sat-
isfying themselves that everything was all
right the jailors wen out in the Office and
Mr.. Cook went down town. Mr.. Walton
looked in occasionally to see what the
prisoner was doing, and as he was still
lying down, sat down In the Office again.
About ten minutes to 8 Davy D%onahue, a
witness in the Reid case, said it was about
time to feed the prisoners, and just then
Blodgett yelled out again and again, and
they rushed into the cell.
This time they found Fitzgerald hanging
to the crossbeam. HIS body was i'm
mediately cut down and DR.. Wells rung up
but the man was past all human aid. he
was stone dead. Mr.. Walton says he couli
not possibly have hung more than three OF
four minutes. They were continually look
ins into the cell, and 1t was while they
were getting ready to feed the prisoners
that the deed was done. The prisoner hae
made sure that his rope would not breal
this time. He had twisted several strip
OF blanket together and hung himself 6,
quietly that one Of the prisoners, nearl,
all OF whom were close to him, heard O
saw anything OF it.

We notice that Balfour, first lord of
the English treasury, says that no en-

to a monetary conference. Coming
from such a source the Inference car
ries great weight, and we may almost
conclude, defines the present position
of that nation upon the silver question.
There is nothing in that to be wonder
ed at: the great usurer is the one a
ton that is prospecting under the pres
ent monetary system, and the millions
of dollars of American gold that leave
US 90 into the Golfers of the English,
and we are getting into their power
with a rapidity that is alarming. Could
George III have foreseen the present
status of affairs he need not have wor-
ried about the slight drubbing our
grand-fathers administered to his SOL
diery and national pride, for he could
simply have left the matter to his f.
~nanciers, who, though a little slow, are
evidently sure.
The insidious way that these people
are at work is easily seen from a recent
article in the "Review of Reviews"
wherein the writer, the editor of
"Bradstreet's," in his article entitled
wall street and the Government"
tells us and the people who originated,
and with the help of the Cleveland
mal-administration, carried through
the scheme (which in it's audacity and
infamy is unparalleled in the annals of
government which in tw%enty-four
hours netted it's originators $40, 600, 600,
