Frank Murray, in advance of Richard
Mansfield, is in the city. Mr.. Mansfield
will open in Butte one week from to-
night, with a company of stars. He
will appear in Beau Brummell" Mon

Butte is the only place in Montana
in which Mr.. Mansfield will appear. He
was booked for Anaconda for one night
but on learning that the opera house is
not yet built there he cancelled the en-
gagerent. So the people of Montana
who want to see Americas greatest
tragedian must come to Butte.

cils-bOth having been candidates be-
fore National nominating conventions
for the high Office of President, they
unite-one Democrat, one Republican
in denuncistion of Populism and
present that as their joint argument
why measure favored or opposed by
q Populist ought to be defeated or car
ried.
But In both these cases the scsrecrow
did not scare. At first, when the SEN
ate was invaded by Populist members
they were regarded as curiosities, 80
many harmless Cranks that would play
their part on the Senatorial stage and
in short time disappear. But things
have changed. The earnest, persistent
and patriotic work of these men has
not only attracted the attention of the
country and the world, but it has drawn
the fire Of the strongest men in the old
parties. 1t is no longer beneath the

POPULISM As A sCARECROM.

In his bitter onslaught on the PETER
resolution to investigate the late bond
sales, Senator Hill began by calling at
tention to the paternity of the resolu.
tion. He said it is the child of
Populism, therefore is discredited to
begin with, and begged Democrats and
Republicans to make common cause
against it on that account.
When the sundry civil appropriation
bill was before the Senate, Mr.. HsWley
of Connecticut proposed an amendment
to stop the government manufacture
of postage stamps and let the work out
by contract to private parties, notwith-
standing the fact that a much larger
amount Of work is now being done by
the Bureau of Printing and Engraving
and at half the cost than was done by
private establishments when they did
the work; and because the Kansas Sem
ator opposed the amendment, Mr.. Haw-
ley raised the scarecrow of Populism,
as Hill had done, In order to break the
force Of argument in favor of govern.

A DISTINCTION WITH A DIFFERENCES.

On the 28th day Of last month SEN
ator WolcOtt of Colorado wrote letter
to the Chairman of the Republican
Central committee of his State, in
which he says that while "there is no
sacrifice (I) he would not make to
secure the reconciliation of silver"
yet he regards gold monometallism
preferable to the success of Populism;
and therefore he says i desire to be
counted as q Republican"
The next day Senator Teller, the col
league Of Mr.. Wolcott, announced in
open Senate his determination to absn-
don his party If it declares for the gold
standard.
Here Is a distinction with q differ
ence-s difference of great significance.
Mr.. Teller is denounced ss a renegade,
a traitor, demsgogue, and everything
vile, while his colleague is lsuded as a
manly" man. Anything to beat Pop
uIism. A man, even q Senator of the
United States, may stultify himself,
may preach one thing and act another,
may turn handspring In open day
light and yet retain the respect Of his
party associates even though he lose
his own.
Mr.. WoleottS letter is published in
all the party papers as patriotic utter
snce showing how honorable men re.
gard the dangers of prospective dis
organization and revolution should
Populism prevail. Here in Kansas
the sentiments Of this letter are hailed
among certain class of papers and
politicians as brave words braVely
spoken, while the courageous warning
that fell from Teller's lips in the fur
mace of debate will take lodgment In
other and q different class of minds,
where it will live and bear fruit in
knowledge. Teller is not afraid of
Popnlism. He knows nothing can be
worse than what his own party has
brought upon US. He knows that
Populism is based on principles broad
and deep as humanity. He knows that
this new party, just as it was with the
Republican party when 1t was young,
has all the prejudices, ignOrances and
animosities Of the past opposed to It.
And he knows that by prudent coun.
selling, patient perseverance and hard,
unremitting effort, the Peoples party
will win victories till it conquers, and
that through its fundamentally the
government of the United States will
yet be restored to the people for whose
safety and happiness it was estab-
lished.

THE PEOPLES PARTY HAS CONE TO STAY

THE PEOPLES PARTY HAS CONE TO STAY.
A good deal Of idle talk is passing on
the improVised question-Whst will
the POpulists do In case one or both
the other great parties does or does not
do certain thingsP
Let these good people rest their souls
in patience. Had our National con-
vention been called early in June, as It
ought to have been, no such question
would have been raised, because our
party DOCTRINES are we'll known, and
nobody would have suspected that we
might run away after fslse gods. But,
though the lateness Of our convention
occasions, II 1t does not justify, some
uncertainty as to the probable course
Of the party in certain contingencies,
the ADVOCATE has no doubt that the
convention will resfiirm Its own party
creed and place in nomination q ticket
made up Of our own men.
The ADVOCATE does not believe that
any concessions will be made by the
convention which involves the surren.
der Of q single fundamental idea or
principle Of the party. A party that
cast o million and half votes at It's
first election has footing that cannot
be undermined by anything short Of q
larger movement on the same lines.
The Peoples party has come to stay.

| contain five pennyweights and half penny
weight Of copper.
It is at this point where the people
get confused In their ideas concerning
the currency value of money. That
an eagle is worth ten dollars, q hall
eagle is worth FIVE dollars, and q quar-
ter eagle is worth two and q half dol
lars, is because the law 80 provides
Congress is authorized to "coin money
and regulate the value thereof" Con.
gresS fixes the value that all our money
has. This is clearly demonstrated in
the difference between the coin value
Of a silver dollar and the market value
Of as much silver bullion as is In the
coin.
Down to 1878 an American silver
dollar was good for it's face anywhere
in the world. Before that time silver
was used for legal tender coin In all
nations except Great Britain, where
the single bssiS-gold-wss established
in 1915. But In 1873 the United States,
and about the same time Germany and
France and several other nations,
stopped the unlimited coinage of sill
YER, and that took away from silver
the protection which the laws of these
countries had given it and had main.
tanned for it. The inevitable result
was to throw silver on the open market
where it had to find it's price level with
copper, zinc and lead and all other srti-
cles. What silver the governments Of
these countries need now they pur-
chase on the silver market, and of
course pay for it the market price and
no more.
1t is not that way with gold. These
nations coin all the gold that is brought
to their mints, and their laws sffix GER
tain values to every coin. This makes
a market for all the gold bullion pro-
duced at the mint price, which is the
price named in the law. If gold were
treated just as silver is treated, the
market value of gold would have fallen
just as that Of silver has fallen.
Referring to our silver dollar, it Ia
equal ss money to one-tenth the value
of an eagle; but the market value of as
much silver bullion as is put into
dollar is only about go cents. The diff.
ference-40 cents-is wholly a creation
Of law.
Put In another way: Our silver dol
lar is worth as much as a gold dollar
in the United States; it is worth So in
Mexico, and so cents in Great Britain,
while our gold coins have the same
value in each and all of these coun-
tries. This shows that law alone fixes
the value of coin.

Eleventh district against the regular

deadly fight with William Morgan and
his sons, Caleb and Thomas, all sup
porters of Colson. The Morgans were
going to the mill and met the Harri-
sons in the road. They began their old
quarrel over the merits of White and
Colson and soon began shooting at each
other The battle lasted several min
utes and over a score of shots were fired.
Old man Morgan fell mortally wounded
at the first fire. When all was over toe
two Morgan boys lay dead and the two
Harrison boys were probably fatally
wounded Harrison, tho father, es
capped without a wound, though there
were several bullet holes in his clothes.
The elder Harrison surrendered to the
authorities and stated that the Morgans
brought on the difficulty and that he and
his sons fired in self defense. There
was no connection whatever between
this affair and Colson being mistaken
on the railway train by an angry father
suposing him to be the man who eloped
