Great Falls Tribune: The state cap
ttoi fund is special fund and is not to
be COMPOUNDED with other state mon
eys, says the supreme court. This be-
ing the case, the state board of exam
liners has nothing to do with examin-
ing or approving the bills of the COM
mission, but that body approves its
own accounts and upon such approval
the state auditor is compelled to issue
warrants against the capitol fund and
they are not a charge against the
state. This explicit decision of the
highest authority as to the non-lia-
bility of the state for capitol debts is
timely and important. 1t is due notice
to all who have dealings with the COM
mission either as contractors or pur-
chasers of warrants that at present
the only security they have for their
money is the $4,000 acres of public
land granted by the general govern
ment, which is to be sold or rented
and the proceeds applied to the con-
struction of the building, the land not
TO be disposed of at less than SO per
acre. The next matter for The COM
mission to have determined is whether
as at present constituted il is a legal
body; after that, whether II can deal
for all the warrants authorized in one
lump, then to sell the warrants, and,
last, to go ahead and rush the build
ing.

CONTEMPORARY OPINION.
FREE SPEECH.


From the Washington Post
The right of free speech, like all
other rights in civilized society, is
limited. The laws provide penalties,
such as fines and Imprisonment, for
defamatory speeches or profane utter
ances. Even a pious, patriotic. or in
structive speech may be too free. Due
regard must be had for time, place,
manner, and other conditions A ser
mon, an Oration, or even a prayer de-
livered in the streets at midnight
would be an offence properly subject
ing the offender to arrest and punish
ment. The speaker who gathers a
crowd in a business thoroughfare, no
matter what he may have to say, vio-
lates law. The clergylnen, who in his
pulpit disturhs a neighbOrhOOd by
shouting after bedtime, creates a nui-
sance. No man has a right to do or
say anything that invades the rights
of other men. Theman who wants abso-
lutte freedom of speech-who cannot
be contented with any restriction of
his vocal powers-should live on a re-
mote island as Robinson Crusoe lived
before he acquired his man Friday. If
he cannot get an island, let him fol-

take the wings of morning and the
Borean desert pierce, or lose himself
in the continuous woods where rolls

There has been much talk OF late
about the right of free speech Some
foolish officials in Delaware imposed
fines on a number of Single Tax cru
saders and shut them up in Jail for re-
fusing to pay the pecuniary penalties
The offence was speaking in the
streets without license. The speakers
violated the law, and in so doing gave
the opponents of the Single Tax doc
trine a pretext for shutting their

D'WILDE WILL SUE.
HE WANTS DAMAGES FOR FLOW
ERS DESTROYED AND FOR PEI
SONAL INJURIES.

In yesterdays Municipal Cour
Chas. DeWilde, the florist, was charged
with carrying a concealed deadly wea-
pom, but was discharged. The facts
in the case, as given an Evening Jour
nal reporter are that a truck farmer
named Sutton, living near the green
houses, had two horses running at
large. The animals got into DeVoecht
& DeWilde's property, destroyed 1872
carnations and 56 roses, valued at $50
and would have done more damage but
for their discovery. The horses were
captured and placed in the pound and
then Sutton visited DeWilde and had
words with him.
During the quarrel Sutton, it is
claimed, caught DeWilde between two
horses and injured him quite badly
wherupon DeWilde drew a pistol
which be had been using in breaking a
colt, and which was loaded with
blank cartridges, and fired it in the
air.
1t is understood that DeWilde has
brought suit through Walter H. Hayes
against Sutton for $3.50 loss of flow
ers, and also a certain amount fol
damages to his person.

WHY THE FARMERs coMPLAIN

WHY THE FARMERS COMPLAIN.
II is well understood that the ply
sician who understands the nature of
the disease which he is called upon to
treat, can generally apply a remedy,
but If the cause of the malady re-
mains a mystery, it is difficult for him
to prescribe to any advantage. 1t
seems to us that the complaints of our
farmers remain incurable from the
reason that the cause of their difficult
tiesis somewhat of famystery,e especially
to themselves. They raise good crops
but get unsatisfactory prices-not
enough indeed to pay them for their
labor
Plainly there is a reason for this
which is not understood for all kinds
of causes are given, none of which has
proved to be the real one upon which
a cure can be based. Prices must be
governed by the supply and demand
for all kinds of crops. Large crops do
not always mean prosperity to the
tillers of the soil, unless there is a
market for them; in fact, small crops
frequently turn out more money in the
end than bounteous ones, without en-
failing as much labor. This is a mat
ter not beyond control if we had the
whole world at command, for Gods
bounties are rarely extended to all
parts of the earth at one time FIRE.
quently when there are large crops in
this country there are failures else
where, and If the farmer were able to
control the sale of his crops until they
got to the hands of the consumer he
would receive remunerative prices
Does not the fact of his being unable
to do this point directly to the cause
of his complaints?
It seems plain to us, that the mid.
die man and the grain speculator is
due mainly the misfortune of the
farmer. Is it not a fact that while
these men grow rich out of the move
ment and sale of his crops the farmer
grows poor? Then does it not look as
II the cure lay in the direction indi.
Gated? All the farmers troubles have
come since the country ,ecame great
and since his crops have been the
most bountiful. There was no trou-
BILE when the farmer sold his crop d.
rect TO the consumer from his own
wagon. Prices were remunerative in
those times. Then is it not well to re-
member that there was no speculatine
in grain then and very few who could
be called middle men?
1t is easier to give the cause, and we
think we have done so above. than to

apply the cure. Ponacs cannot be
farmers think that they can for politics
will not remove either the gamblers in
grain or the middle-class dealers, both
of whom are spectators in the farm
er's misfortunes. It is plain that a
large class of people exists in this
country to whom success means in
jury to the agricultural class. We are
thus confronted with a most import
ant economic question which should
properly be solved by the government
of the country. Here are three classes
OF people which depend upon one
source for their maintenance. Of the
three, the poorest paid are those from
whom that maintenance is derived.
First among these classes we find the
spectators, who are nothing more
than gamblers. Cannot the govern
ment give these fellows something
else to do? Then come the middle
men, who to a certain extent, are eneces-
sary for the disposal of crops. Can
not the souls of these men be raised
above the petty advantages which
they gain over the last of these three
classes, the farmers? If so, we would
admit their usefulness and allow them
to exist. But the speculators-the
gamblers-must go, and in the interest
of the agricultural community there
should be some method devised which
will wipe them out of existence.
