HOPEFUL
He Writes Oh the EAT ct OF the Flee
fi0n on the status If the
silver Question,
SILVER WILL YET TRIUMPH
Wherever the Question Had Been
Studied, Il Majority Was for
Free Silver.

,NI.W York, Nov. N.-In the Deem
Der number Of the North American Re-
view. published today, Mr., Bryan has an
article in which he discusses the result
Of tbs election rs affecting the status Of
the silver gIestiOn. The iesue on which
the election turned be describes as the
greatest issue eyer submitted to the
American people in time Of peace Mr.,
that the silver sentiment was strongest
where the question has been longest cor
eidered; that Is TO say, in the west and
south. In Mr.. Bryan's opinion the
cause of bimetallism made more rapid
progress than any cause ever made in
such 3 short time. He Expresses his as
eurance that the election can be by nc
meana regarded aa q conclusive settle
ment of the question At issue. The adj
vocaiea of free coinage are convinced, he
Baya, that they are laboring in behalf Of
4 large majority Of the people,
not only here, nut throughout the world,
and eccoraing to tho writer, they pro
pose 70 continue their contest, con-
Gdent that four years Of experience will
convince many who have ttia Far re-
sisted arguments, This confidence, Mr.,
Bryan says, ia confirmed by tho history
of recent cIectiona. Mr.. Greeley was
defeated in 1872 and Tilden was elected
in 1876. Blaine was defeated in 1884, but
Harrison was elected in 1883. The re-
publican victory of 1888 was followed by
the democratic victory of 1890 and

the election Of President Cleveland
two years later, Mr.. Bryan @counsn,s
the successful party TO remember that
thousands Of republicans have been held
to their party this year by the pledge
that it will try to secure international
bimetallism. Ia reference to the gold
standard democrat, Mr.. Bryan feels sure
they cannot do Us much in 1900 ae they
have done this year, They have declared
their affection fer democratic principles,
while they spared no effort to secure the
success of the opposing ticket. They
cannot, he Gays, Disguise themselves

>cihar7 and a'srhor W"aId Like to ,c
III Cascade County.
Ihe Neiha1t Miner edltoriaIiy ra.e:
"N0W that the sitting &. the Icgiala-
ture is comparatively so near az hand
considerable speculation is being in
dulgod in regarding the probable action
Of that body on several matters Of i'm
p%ortanCe 70 Meagher county. The
Broadwater county bill will probably
come up, as also without doubt will the
question Of segregttIng Neihart and.
Barker from Mealhor county and joining
them 10 Cascade.
If the seats Of the senator and repre-
eentatiyes recently declared elected are
not successfully contested, then there is
I'LL the more reason why WI should more
earnestly dcEiIe Annexation to Cascade
county, for "o may DO assured thby will
DO their utmost 10 create Broadwater
county, with the possible exception Of
Mr., Sanford, vino j9&B Tot as yet OK
pressed his views in the matter. In 3ho
oyout OF tho creation Of Hroadwater
county II would be for the best interests
Of NeIhart and Barker to favor annexa
tiun, In fact. Barker is unanimous IN
desiring it. From "a Typographical view
and on account of the facility with which
we can reAcn the county seat Of Cascade
we should belong to that county. 1t is
d matter that We alone should decide,
and il Is time that we should take some
action in the matter"
This movement is II revival Of that
which tho cilizenH of Ncihart and Barker
have generally favored for several years.
Indeed, when Cascade county Was
created, it was believed that barker WAS
included within the limits Of Cascade
county and the mistake was not dis.
covered until more than a year after,
when q number OF candidates for Office
in Cascade county made an active cam
paign at Barker.
The people of these two towns have
long been sore because OF the great in
tluence exertod in politics and county
affairs by White Sulphur Springs, the
cOunty-seat of Meaghcr county, and this,
added to the commercial relations and
social tics between Great Falls and the
two mining towns, has caused Ii large
majority to favor segregation from
Mehgher and annexation TO Cascade
county.
So far rs Cascade county is concerned,
it is a certainty that the people would
welcome the change. Neihart and Bar
kcr are by no means rs expensive to Il
county As many smaller and less produc-
tive sections, the people are progressive
and exceedingly law. abiding, the assessed
valuation Of the two camps is consider
able, annexation to Cascade county
would certainly contribute to the pros.
perity Of the two camps and hence to
the welfare Of Great Falls, and Cascade
%county'e delegation will probably favor
the proposed change.

VICTIMIZED HIS PATIENT.
Robert Macarthur, "a Columbus Hospital
Nurse, Steals q Sick Mans Money.

Robert Macarthur, Il Columbus Hospital
A particularly mean case of robbery
was reported Friday morning to Chief
OF Police Guerin by the sisters at Column
bus hospital. A smelter man named
Jaggers, who had been q patient there
for a few days past, being injured at the
smelter, was placed under the care of a
male nurse named Robert McArthur,
who has been employed there
for eome time past and has
always been considered reliable
and honest. The patient had $50 with
him. AS no depended on this money to
pay for nncessarios during the winter, he
thought he would deposit it with the
s%'stere, whore it would be safe till he got
ready to leave the hospital, and gave it to
Macarthur to hand 70 them for safe keep
ing Thanksgiving day. 1t was not until
late that night that he missed the nurse
and, inquiring of ono Of the sisters, dis
covered that tho money hsd
NOT been deposited with Thorn
as he supposed. This aroused some auB-
~picion, which was increased to a GER
tainty whom it was found that Nc
Arthur was missing, and with q cost
and hat belonging to another patient.
Macarthur was seen by q policeman in
the Park thoater Thanksgiving night.
but it was learned that he left town
early Friday morning before the loss
was reported to the police.
