1t is matter of some satisfact>
ion to those half-d dozen republican
papers that boldly put tie names
of Mckinley and Hobart at the
head of their columns, to observe
the very general movement in that
direction on the part of their le-
publican contemporaries throughout
the state, They are reluctant to
support the candidates or plat
form opposed to independent free
coinage, but not so reluctant as to
support candidates on any such a
"crazy quilt of anarchism" as the
den ocratic platform. Great Falls

The county clerks of the several
counties in Montana are in re-
cepit of advices from the secretary
of state informing him that they
must comply with a law concerning
weights and measures, passed by
the last state legislature. Theslaw
referred to makes the county clerk
ex xofficio sealer of weights for the
county and he must compare all
weights and measures brought to
him for that purpose with copies
of the standards in their possession.
The original standards are in the
possession of the secretary Of state
and he furnishes copies of them to
the county Mr.. Rotwitt notifies
the mmissioners that he will
furnish the county with a full set
of weights and measures for 1898. :
80 The law provides a heavy
penalty for using false or in correct
measures and says all dealers must
have them compared and approved
by the county sealer. 1t will be
of interest to know that the sealer
is not required to call Oh the deal
ers, but the latter must call on the
Sealer to have measures and
weights compared Mr.. Rotwitt
demands report from the county
sealer by next September.

The situation is clearly stated
in the following from the Helena
Herald: "Thc democratic party
cannot con mand its own strength
for the purpose of enacting law
to establish free coinage. Its
membership in congress will be
divided by sectional lines on that
question, and il absolutely pre-
sents no hope or possibility of
having majority in both houses
O. congress so composed as to
secure Legislation in behalf of
silver. Until that is possible, it is
quite indifferent, SC far as positive
results are concerned. v ho is pres
ident.
But as to free trade, exactly the
trary is true. On that ques
tion the democratic party is sub.
TALLY a unit with little regard
to sections. Place it in power,
and it is not a matter of coniec-
ture, but of absolute certainty,
that the country would be denied
the benefit of protection. The
differences at Chicago were only
on the silver plank; there was
harm ony and enthusiasm in favor
OF the declaration of a tariff for
revenue only, condemning protec
tive legislation and denoun> ing
even the agitation Of any change
in the existing tariff laws, mean
ing the Wilson-Gorman abortion. p"

Up to date we have not heard a
single good reason advanced why
the present sheriff should not be
renominated and reelected 1t is
admitted by all that he has made a
first class officer, and law breakers
have been taught to respect ,the
laws authority. This has been
done without piling up enormous
bills against the county. In fact,
persons in position to know say
that they have never seen so large
an amount of work done at sc
small a cost. This is the kind oil
men Teton county wants in Office
not men who looks on public Office
as a private snap, and expect tc
get rich in a year or two at the
expense of the taxpayers.

Suffolk. And. indeed, 1t appears that
the Inconvenience, discomfort and loss to
merchants and others caused by the
binding clouds OF dust daily driven
through the thoroughfares by the strong
winds. would be sufficient grounds to ask
for this innovation. The cost of sprink-
Ter would be more than counterbalanced
In one season by actual saving to tax
payers, not to speak of the discomfort
obviated. The matter is respectfully re-
fered to the Town Council 70 considera-

payers that some action be taken.
ARE THEY MARRIED.-There was
u genN-ally circulated rumor around
town to-day that Mr.. Elmer A. Thomas
and Miss VeSta Scott two well-known
young people, had been married last
evening in North Carolina. Investiga-
ton resulted In the establishment of no
confirmation of the story from the. prin-
cipals. but there are many persons who
still believe that they were married in
the face of all denials
Some of the reasons why II Is insisted
that there was n marriage ceremony
are: After preparations in toilets last
evening Mr.. Thomas and Miss Scott left
Suffolk, rumor said, for the Old North
State. Two close friends of the groom
also made some extra touches to their
toilets and left town. All parties re-
turned about midnight. and the report
was started early this morning of their
marriage. and has been growing all day
with such intensity that there are those
who strongly believe 1t 20 be true. Their
belief was strengthened by the report
which came in this afternoon from North
Carolina that q Suffolk couple was mar
ried there last night.

and laughingly denied the runor that
she was married. Her mother said that
If her daughter was married she knew
nothing of 1t. She had given her per-
mission last evening to 20 on little trip
in Mr.. Thomas's company The publ,c
has been doing Il great deal of specula-
ting and talking. but if there has been
n marriage ceremony, neither of the prln-
cipals will admit the fact They are an
parently enjoying the episode.
MIR. Thomas Is employed by the town
as engineer of the Fire Department.
Miss Scott moved here from Pennsvlva
MA. She Is apparently about fifteen
years old, and is very pretty. having

the groom can be truly congra tulated

Deep in thought sat General Gomez,
Pondering over the latest news;
That the resolutions hoped for
Had not passed TO meet his views.
But that they were hanging, dangling,
In the meshes of mays" and nights
And too conservative President,
Hesitated to grant to Cuba her rights.
Cubans simply ask for recognition
AS people. and its rights 81
Let them know you think them soldiers,
Not mere brigands OF the night.
Has America. in her power,
So soon forget the day.
When DER her conquered valleys
Swept lSritann!a's steel array?
Forgets she how her favorte sons.
In answer to the call
or freedom from oppressor's yoke,
Spoke out from Faneuil Hail.
When echoing back her statesmen's cry
Came throbbing With each breath.
The noble cries and thrilling words
OF Liberty or Death"
The Nirginian that contained the news
OF sad delays in rights.
