There Can be no Compromise on Issues
in This Campaign.

To the Editor: The issues of this
campaign are clearly drawn. lhere
can be no straddling of issues. The
voter must register his vote for tue
free and unlimited coinage OF SILVER

and Observer has endeared itself TO the
neonle by its open and manly fight Tor
silver. the cause OF the toiling masses

this election. The people will tolerate
no straddles The silver forces must
not be divided The silver electoral
ticket is all right. Il could not he inn
proved upon and IL will sweep tue
State like a flood of waters, There
is now another question TO settle.
Who will be our next Governor anu
who will he our United states senator
This QUESTION should claim the atten~
tion of every silver man. Watson
or Guthrie would make q Governor

Can't we lay our prejudicos aside, and
mite an Watson for Governor and
Guthrie for United States Senator, or

aud should be the pass word IA this
campaign, Vote for no gold-hug

these words along the line from the

and roe<~ribhed hills, Go where the
mountain peaks are lost in the azure
Sky. Let's make every silver vote

Delay not this matter
The people are patient, but division

his party was bitterly set on doing
away with the liquor curse by stating
that they were open for no compromise
with the liquor dealers or manufaetur-
ers and only asked to have the trailic
entirely removed from the land
The meeting was well attended and
no one has augiht TO say of the gifted
speaker, except to praise him for his
eloquence and wonderful knowledge Of
the Leading questions Of the day It
has been conceded by men of oil par
ties that the address delivered by the
North Carolinian, considered from
an oratnrical or rhetorical standpoint,
was one Of the finest political speeches
ever given before an Alliance audience.

Candidate Adams Has Only Practiced
Law Two Months.

To the Editor: Many of our Demo
cratic papers have overlooked the fact
that the Superior court judge for this
district is elected by the whole State,
and even the Charlotte Observer does
not have Mr. Manning's name on it's
ticket. Win you not be kind enough
TO call attention to this in the News
and Observer and ask all Democratic
papers in the State to place Mr.. Man
ning's name on the ticket.
Again. you know Mr.. S. B. Adams,
whom the Republicans have put up
against him. He is the Clerk of the
Superior court of Caswen county, and
has been very nearly ever since he be-
came a lawyer. As ] am informed, Mr..
Adams has never practiced law except
for a very few months, and / am told
he only had two cases in this time
and that he never argued case in the
Supreme court He is a lifelong Re-
publican and will support Mckinley
and Settle. At their convention last
Thursday, the Populists endorsed
Adams by a vote, one-half of which
came from Chatham, which vote was
given to Adams by direction of Strowd,
who was present demanding that this
be done in order that he might get
the support of the Republicans in the
Fourth district.
Adams is a very clever fellow, but
it is shame to put up a man without
any experience as a lawyer for Judge.
Our State is sufficiently cursed with
poor judges now.

Prospectors usually run across some
very amusing sights III wandering
about the mountains and along the
many streams hereabouts, and many Is
the amusing incident | could relate to
the readers of The Mail, were | so in
clined, about bears, mountain lions,
snakes, mosquitoes, horse flies, etc,
but it is not my desire now to relate
to you ''yarns' but to report the frollc
of dozen or so young Philipsburg
ladies who I came very near running
right into while strolling up Flint
creek last Saturday. Their merry
peals of laughter gave me warning that
| might be approaching danger, so l.
stole of to one side ard continued
along E,y course until came within
sight and ear-shot Of the gayost, jolli-
est and most frolcsome gathering Of
bright calico that ever before met my
gaze, and | am pretty old too. L
! should judge that it was about II
O'Clock as the gay crowd was prepar-
ing spread. One of the young ladies
suggested, as near as / could make

lunch, and thereby partake of their
repast with clean "soles " This met
with approval by many, and they hied
themselves to the willows presumably
to carry out that task and Judging
from the shrieks | took it that the
water was colder than they antici-
pated it to be. After this | thought it
proper to go on. But the sight was
one [ enjoyed immensely, and if it
were possible to describe it with pen
Gil and paper / would do so. just
picture to yourself crowd of young
Philipsburg ladies, without man in
sight to their knowledge running,
teasing, laughing, tearing, and washing
of feet one will form a fair idea of
what | am endeavoring to portray.
l did not know the young ladies at
the time. Since the Sunday Standard
has reached me observe that the party
was composed of Miss Alice Weinstein,

JOINED IN WEDLOCK,
Joseph Fletcher Goes to Colorado and
Takes Unto Himself a Bride.

Joe Fletcher and bride arrived IN
Philipsburg last Thursday and are now
visiting with Mr. and Mrs Charles
Williams. When Joe went to Colorado
short time ago The Mail ventured
the prediction that he would not return
alone and in this we were correct. Joe
was married in Silver Cliff, Colo, to
Miss Alxina Emard, and together the
happy couple returned to Philipsburg.
Joe is one of our well known min
ing men and has made friends on every
hand during his few years residence
in this section of Montana The bride
is handsome and accomplished lady
whom Joe has known for several wears.
The whole community wishes the
newly married pair life of welded
bliss, in which The Mail most heartily
joins.

drew the money Of the people into
their vaults and kept it there. Prop
erty at once fell in value so as to be
practically unstable at any price. In
dustry is PROSTATE, and labor stands
idle in the market place. Or hopelessly
roams in poverty and distress searching
vainly for work. The reason why no
one can sell his land or other property
without ruinous loss is because no one
has or can get the money to buy it at
its true value. If money, instead of
being scarce and hard to get, should
disappear entirely, or could not be got
ten at all, property could still be ex-
changed for other property by barter :;
but it would have no pecuniary value
whatever. Everyone now knows that
the price, Of labor, land, Of all the
products of labor is determined by the
amount of money in circulation
among the people. To know the fact,
however. is not enough. The reason
for it should be known so that the

ANOTHER SILVER VOTE.
A Pleasant Party Given to Altie Ballard
Saturday Night.

A party was given to Alfie Ballard
last Saturday evening, at Brigade hall,
by his parents. Mr.. and Mrs. G. B.
Ballard, in honor of his twenty first
birthday. Neatly printed invitations
were issued and a large crowd of young
folks We're present. The new hall was
comfortably crowded and a very en-
joyable evening was spent. The floor
was excellent, being almost as smooth
as glass, which made daIcing much
easier and more enjoyable than usual.
Dancing was started at 9 O'Clock and
continued until nearly 12, when ice
cream and cake were served, after
which the party broke up, wishing the
young man many Il pleasant birthday.
