Helena. Mont. May 26. 1896.
General Edwin A. Merritt. Potsdam. y. Y.
My Dear Sir: Located here In the very storm
centre Of monetary wilderness. and studying the
character and quality OF those Republicans who
are possessed by this on the subject Of sill
yer money, see with great plainness how splen-
did Is the opportunity which is coming to the Ma
tional Republican Convention in June to clear the
monetary sky by an unequlvoca and unambigu-
Gus and perspicuous utterance in the Republican
National platform for the unvarylng mainten-
ance Of the gold standa rd for American money.
Such an occasion has seldom come 70 the great
Republican party-s party which, however, Is
rich with lofty occasions which II has generally
nobly improved. II. IN so conspicuous an occa-
sion as this. It shall palter In double sense. or
hide the truth by meaningless phrase. or trlhe
with the integrity OF words upon the subject OF
money II will be a manifestation Of nerveess-
that will delight the ghost-dancers and
featherheads Of monetary science. who are in the
party. on the edge Of the party. or just outside
the party. and will bring upon us lasting disgrace
A noble utterance on this subject will clear the
political sky and In Montana and her surround
Ing states will do more to reinsp!re with their
utmost valor her Republicans than anything else
which be said done I do not doubt but
that with such a platform will carry the State
OF Montana this year by a good majority, and
never hereafter find more trouble with the eco
nomic heresles which dominate the ignorant and
the complaisant
I sometimes fear that In places not seriously In
tested with this heresy Republican friends
will not the spendor Of this opportunity or the
solemnty OF It's duty. but from my point Of view
they supreme and in behalf Of that party
and Of tie faithful disciples in Montana who do
not speculate T. the terms on which they
would abandon II. or the rewards which they ask
FOR betrayng 1t. hope those who will have
charge Of preparing the platform will speak with
uncertain sound on this theme. and will not
the great work which that convention is
called upon 10 perform.
Pardor this letter, but my solicitudes upon this
subject such that would leave no duty un-
done 10 assist my party in an hour Of very great
peril. | am. very truly yours.

OUR CHURCHES.


Rev. DR.. Z. b. Webbof Boston preached
at the South church last Sunday, morning
and evening, and delighted his audiences.
The North church people united with the
South church in the evening, when DR..
Webb gave a stirring and powerful
address on missions. As he is chairman
of the prudential committee of the Amer-
can Board his words had added weight
and authority. He spoke first OF how
the debt was raised thanking most sim
cerelv not only D. Willis James, who
gave $4,000, but each and every church
member whose gift, however small,
helped lift the debt of S115,OOO. He
said that he hoped no one would lessen
their contribution now that the debt
was raised because the American Board
was sorely in need OF money for current
funds. He then paid his respects to the
sultan of Turkey in an extremely vigor-
GUS and refreshing way. He believed
that history was repeating itself and
that Turkey would soon become so inn
poverished that this nation would be
wiped off the map OF the world The
only two religions that today competed
in any sense with the Christian religion
was Mohomeddanism and Buddhism.
The former conquered by the sword, and
no religion that gained converts that
way would outlive Christianity. Budd-
hism had many desirable features in its
creed, but Christianity was undermining
it in the East and the religion OF Christ
would prevail. Dr. Webb did not think
he would live to see Africa Christian
nation, but he said some in the audience
would live to see that glorious day In
conclusion he urged all to keep up their
interest in missions and give what they
could to help along the great work.
The Catholic church had mass at 7
O'Clock Thursday morning to commemo-
rate the institution of the Blessed
Eucharist and prayer meeting before the
repositorum at 730 in the evening To-
day, Good Friday, services will be held
