There is story current among the Per
SLAMS which sets forth the disclosing power
of wisdom, whereby wise man uncovers
tho thing that Is hidden. A certain cadi,
or magistrate, was called upon to decide IA
curious case. A woman was claimed by
two men rs wife--One q peasant, the other
mira, or scribe. Each Of the two men
sworo to tho truth Of his claim. Tho wom-
an for some reason was silent. The cndi
unable to get any evidence which corrob-
GRATED the claim of either of tho men, or
derGd tho woman to remain for Il time
with his own wives.
The next day he handed her over to the
scribe and ordered the peasant to DO &C.
verely bastinedoed-tha is, beaten on tho
soles Of his feet. Then the woman broke
silence for tho first timo and praised the
just judge. The spectators also applaudcd
tho Justice Of the cadi, but failed to sec tho
grounds of his Judgment.
IL told her to milk cow" said tho
cadi, land she could not. Then, handing
her my writing case, told her to put it in
order. She toox the little silver spoon and
replenished my inkstnnd with water. Only
the wife Of n man who could write would
have done this correctly. Hence my de-
cision."
The woman's act Of replenishing the
inkstand with water instead of with Ink,
is explained by the fact that a Persian
scribe writes with india ink. A spongeliko
ball of silk, full Of this ink, is placed in
the inkstand and Inoistcned with water TO
keep it from becoming dry and hard

We hear every day, from
Candidate Bryan and his associates,
the cry that this country is "big
enough to go it alone" We are
glad to see that the free traders
are at last waking up to the great
ness of this country. Time was
when they were much exercised in
mind lest protective tariff might,
by any possibility, build "Chi-
nese WALL about us, and when they
fought the possibility of such a
thing, on the ground that we could
not get along without the products
OF other nations; time was when
the "markets of the world" held
such a glamour for them that the
fact that our home market is ten
times as valuable as all the so called
"markets of the world was com
pletely over shadowed.

The Northern Montana Creamery

Wolf and son, who we're here about
three weeks ago, have succeeded in
interesting large number of
farmers in the movement and al
ready work on the construction of
a plant has begun at Burton in
Teton county. While the factory
will be located there, Great Falls
will be the distributing point and
as soon as the plant is ready to
begin operations a store will be
opened here and the younger men,
ber of the firm will take charge of
it. Milk and cream will be pur-
chased from ranchers in Teton,
Choteau and Cascade county and
product which has heretofore been
used for home consumption will be
hereafter converted into cash aud
distributed among the farmers.

ment will arrive here about Oct. 15,
and from that date on will be re-
cived fresh daily. Today a large
lot of supplies were shipped to

pie must live. Under free trad
policy; a policy OF destruction t
American industries; policy O
benefit to foreign lator; we hav
become pretty near all the same al
a nation of paupers. If one cal
not get any work to do, on accoun
of all our labor going to foreign
countries, why not get good
fat office? Our democratic friends
made mistake when they provided
that Americas labor should be
done in foreign countries, and
failed to provide a sufficient num-
Der of offices for the multitude of
people who are living in enforced
idleness.
That the hard times have a great
deal to do with the present rush
for office, is evidenced by several
things. That the democratic party
is responsi ole for the present hard
times is fact that is beyond ques-
tion. The clouds first began to
gather when it was known that
Mr.. Cleveland was elected and that
he was backed by a democratic
congress. They became blacker as
time went on and the nation S fears
developed into certainty. The
only thing that has caused partial
raising of the clouds was the re-
publican victories of 1894 which
developed hope IN the trembling
breast of the nation that the demo-
cratic shackles would be thrown off
in 1896. Should anything happen
that the democrats should triumph
again this year, the clouds would
settle upon US, darker than before,
The strangest thing that the
writer has ever seen in politics is
happening just now. That is, that
republicans, knowing the past re-
cord of the democratic party.
knowing that their free trade poll
ces are robbing the American arti-
san of employment; knowing that
they intend to go on In their work
of destruction to American indus
tries; will support the two tailed
ticket they have put in the field.
We do not know that the demo-
Gratis would give US free silver, if
they had a chance, but we do know
that they will give it to American
labor, in the neck, whenever and
wherever theys get an opportun-
ity.

If long and faithful service in
the ranks of the party are to count
for anything, S. L. Potter will
be our next sheriff. He is a re-
publican without variableness or
shadow of turning. Above all
things, he accepts the will of the
party az his guide and never tries,
by springing an Independent .candi-
dacy to throw the election into the
hands of the democrats. Give him
a rousing majority this fail.

The political pot is boi ling and
seething at a rapid rate in this sec
ton, Candidates are becoming
quite familiar upon our streets.
They are also getting familiar
with our voters. The country is
being besiegcd by them. They
are of all ages, sizes, sexes, and
conditions. The crafty lawyer and
hayseed are alike tumbling over
each other in the rush for office
and spoils. The great crying need
of the age is more offices. The
man who could make two offices
grow where only one grew before
would be public benefactor.
When the millennium comes, we
will probably all hold office. But
the millennium is long way off and
in the mean time, many there be
who hunger and thirst after office.
One can hardly step out OF doors
without being button holed by
some anxious, wiid-visaged, red
eyed seeker after the good things
that are in the treasury.
Still, people are not to be blamed
so very much, after all Four
years of democratic admins traUion

MIDDLE IN MISSISSIPPI.
Attempt to Add Fifth Man to the
Chicago DeleSa. ion Makes Trouble.

Nhichso DetSasIOn Nh keS trouble.
Jackson, Miss, June 1.-THE action OF
the recent Democratic State convention
IN hastily choosing four delegates from the
state at large to the national convention
and then for the sake of harmony hastily
adding n fifth 10 cast the four votes. has
produced an unprecedented muddle and
is attracting great attention
Secretary Sherin, of the Democratic
nation| committee, has written that he
has only seats fer. the number of delegates
specified in the call for the national con-
venuon, and inquiring who the super
fiuous fifth man is" Those who~know
best say there will be a great lack OF
harmony in the Mississippi delegation.
A special from Caroliton, the home OF
Senator George, says: The friends of
Senator George resent the suggestion
contained in several papers of the State,
that he decline to attend the national
convention as one of the four delegates
at large, and thus make room for Colonel
Henry. editor of the Sfarion Ledger who
was added to the delegation. which consists
of Senators George and walthall, Governor
NcLaurin, and Senator-elect Money, max
ing five.
They point out that Senator George was
named first on the delegation and that
Colonel Henry's name was added in the
interest of harmony, and that Colonel Henry
ls, therefore, the so-called fifth wheel +"
They say that if Senator George should
rail to go TO the convention or even
should die, that his alternate. Hon William
{. Mclean, of Grenada, would succeed him.
The aniiuus of this resentment on the
part OF Senator Georges friends lies in the
remembrance of the fierce and relentless
fight made on the Senator for re-election
when he was opposed by the sub treasury
candidate for the United States Senate,
