Tribute to Filled Choose.

In the house, the other day, Rep
resentative Deliver, of Iowa, was
heard on the filled cheese bill. With
a picturesque felicity of express
ion worthy of a greater occasion and
a grander subject, he said:
"Gentlemen, the world will not
go on forever buying coffee grains
delicately moulded out of blue
mud. 1t will not 60 on buying tea
that has been generously commin-
gled with the dried leaves of the
forest. 1t will not 60 on drinking

grapes, nor those other and more
penetrating beverages that have
entered into partnership with such a
fatal assortment Of explosive chemi-
Gals asto greatly facilitate the descent
of our fellow citizens down the
fabricated steps to the Opaque pro-
fundity of damnation."

News from Zululand.

Late reports from the Kafir mines,
says the Salt Lake Tribune, are that
the main reef from which it was ex-
pected 50 per ton would be realized
is in fact only yielding about IS, and
as the profits lie between the SO and
the 50 there is trouble there, and the
French people are unloading their
Kafir stocks at what they will bring.
OF course the stories of last year
about the wealth of that country,
while perhaps calculated to excite
men who know nothing about mines,
carried on their face to old miners
the certain evidence of unreliability.
They said that for t~hirty-six miles
there was an unbroken lie lge, all of
which would pay in a mill. All
miners know that lodges do not have
that habit; that the ore lies in chutes
VARYING from a bunch to 700 or 800
feet in length. The Tribune last
year expressed the belief that there
was more gold in the Mother Lode
of California than there is on the
Rand, and we still adhere to that
belief.

A Crafty Hare.

Rabbits and hares are not partiou-
larly we'll known as crafty animals
to hunt, but the London Field tells
of a hare that showed considerable
skill in outwitting the dogs. It was
q good sized hare, and the nine dogs
had a lively race after her. She cir
cled, as rabbits usually do when run
by dogs, and then led off. She went
over a high stone fence and bothered
the hunters some. Scared by some
women. she turned square to one
side, and the dogs overran and lost
the trail for a little bit. Then the
beast jumped again. She was very
tired and stiff, but got limbered up
and ran we'll for a time. Then she
got to a farmyard, where she disap-
peared and was not found by the
dogs again.
One Of the sportsmen got a letter
a couple of days later from the farm
er, saying that his wife, hearing
something in the bedroom. went
into it to find out the cause. It was
the hare. 1t took refuge under the
bed, but was carried out to the lawn
and liberated. After, sitting still
awhile the animal went hopping
away, waiting for another chase. It
is only when hard pressed that ami
mails take refuge in human habita-
tiOnS.

Would Steal a Shirt.

In addressing the senate Wednes-
day on an amendment providing for
the issue of additional government
bonds, Sherman said he "would take
the last shirt off the people rather
than violate our national credit" and
in the light of his past solicitude for
the interest gatherers, it is safe to as
sumo that the gentleman from Ohio
spoke the truth when he made that
assertion. A few more years of leg
islation such as Sherman, Carlisle and
others are advocating, would not on
ly remove the last shirt from the
backs of the people, but place it be-

DEMOCRATIC INCOMPETENCY.

Never was democratic ,ncompet-
ency more noticeable than in the acts
of that party today. From national
to county committees the party has
postponed it's conventions until re-
publicans have already finished their
work.
Our democratic brethren were
never more at sea as to what to re-
solve, or whom to sacrifice on the pol
itical altar. For once in the count
rvs history the ruling party has alb
solutely nothing to say in its W de-
Tense. The party has promised SO
much, and achieved so little--in fact
nothing creditable-that its closes,
adherents doubt the expediency OF
making further pledges.
They cannot defend free trade; for
that has proved the grandest humbug
OF the century.
The promised good times to follow
the repeal of the Sherman law can
hardly be made the subject of a res.
olution.
The wisdom of the state depart
ment in the famous Venezuelan and
Hawaiian rackets could call forth nc
enthusiasm.
The amazing success of President
Cleveland's bonds as a hock-shop
proposition might supply the lumber
for one little plank.
This is the true situation. The
party has no valid excuse for its .x-
%istence. The people regard its in.
glorious administration as the opera.
tons of a monumental bunco game.
The democratic party is a cross be.
tween a horse and an ass.
This is why it waits for republican:
to lead. Because lacking brains te
direct its course, it hopes to win by
objecting to what the other fellow
proposes to do.
Instead Of being the relic of {
great party, it is only the relic of
monumental blunder. "Democracy'
means "blunder," sometimes spelled
''plunder.")
The party has really degeneratee
to the par Of a dago squad, whose re
s%plendent glory exists only in books
Thus it matters little what tn
party promises; for the people know
the genuine from the sham.
The third party in Montana is
dead card.

Democrats Will Instruct.

"Six delegates from Montana will
be for silver, but they will abide by
the decision of a majority of the
convention" These are the words
A. J. Davidson, Montana member of
the democratic national committee.
Mr. Davidson's statement is printed
in the New York Journal. The
Anaconda Standard is s'surprised
that Mr.. Davidson should presume
thus to say what the Montana demo-
Gratis will do" The Standard will be
O surprised when the convention
meets. The Standard ought to
realize by this time that there are
two democratic parties in Montana.
The STANDARD is the other one.

SILVER MEN OF ALL PARTIES.
It Ia Said They Will All Unite upon
q Single Candidate.

A special to the Chicago Record
from indianapolis says: The popu-
lists of Indiana make the announce
ment that within the last ten days an
understanding has been reached
whereby the populists of every state
in the union are to vote for the can
didates of the Chicago convention in
case both are for free silver.
In accordance with the negotiations
which began several months ago the
populist national convention and the
convention conference of the nation
al silver party have been called to
meet in St. Louis on the same day,
July %, two weeks after the meeting
of the democratic convention in Chi
cago. The leading democrats of sill
YER throughout the country have been
quietly informed that if the Chicago
convention adopts a free silver plank
and dominates a candidate who will
pledge himself to sign a free coinage
bill, If n comes to him from con-
gress, the action of the convention
will be Endorsed by the two St. Louis
conventions.
Representatives of the populist
party have been travelling through
the west and southwest during the
past six weeks, suggesting that the
state conventions be postponed until
the national democratic convention
in July shall have been held and ask
ing that the populists stand for the
free coinage of silver as the preemi
nent issue.
1t is announced in all directions
that the plans suggested are being
carried out. In many states there
have been conferences between the
leading free silver democrats, repub-
~licans, national silverites and popu-
lists. 1t has just leaked out that last
Saturday afternoon there was a meet
ing of the silver republicans in Indi.
ana, free silver men of all parties.
The representatives of the populists
announced in the meeting that the
state convention had been postponed
until August in order that the party
might have the action of the Chicago
convention before proceeding to ar
range for the campaign.

The defenders of bandit Bill Ga

The defenders of bandit Bill Gay
have carried their nonsense about
far enough. Gov. Richards knows
the situation as we'll as any one. The
1900 or 1000 poor dupes who have
signed the petition for Communication
of sentence are not from Meagher
county where the deed was commit
ted. They are not men interested
or concerned in the case. The
courts have found a true bill against
him, and he ought to suffer the pen
atty imposed. We can not think
the governor will pay any regard to
such a petition as Gays friends will
present.

Some former representatives of the
populist party, but who lost their
political identity by fusing two years
ago with the democrats are in camp,
trying to influence local populists IN
the favor of a repetition of the old
dose. Inasmuch as democracy is the
third party in Montana, the chances
are against the populists joining
hands with them.

PRESS OPINIONS.
A Democratic Wall.

The esteemed Anaconda Standard,
in a leading editorial Thursday
morning, bemoans the fact that the
convention of the Montana democrats
will not be held uutil after the con-
ventions of most Of the eastern
states. 1t refers to the fight being
waged for silver in Ohio and Iowa
and says: 1t is, a pity that, instead of
showing a readiness to lend a help
ing hand, Montana democracy is
obliged to wait until nearly all of the
states have acted. This state follows
where it ought to lead"
It's too bad. but if the Montana
democrats wish to help their brothers
in other states in the battle being
waged for the white metal we respect.
fully suggest that they forward them
the financial plank adopted at Helena
two years ago, which, having never
been revised or repudiated, still
stands as rejecting the sentiment of
the party in this state. 1t reads, we
believe, something like this:
We hereby express our cordial
approval of the administration OF
Grover Cleveland and our confidence
in his judgment, patriotism and
ability to guide the destines of our
country through the difficulties by
which it is beset:-Rillings Gazette.

The Heart In Cycling.

1t is erroneous to believe that BIZ
cycle riding should be avoided in ev-
cry case of heart disease. Physi-
clans who have made a study of this
question declare that it may even be
very beneficial in certain instances
in which the action of the heart is
feeble and in which signs of fatty
degeneration + found. Increased
muscular exercise almost invariably
improves the conditions of the heart
itself. There are, however, several
indulgences that persons with weak
hearts should beware of, such as
straining to climb hills and meeting
head winds, excessive fatigue and
particularly exciting the heart and
calling upon its reserve strength by
the use of alcoholic stimulanfs and
improper food-Hartford Times.
