Cats Around the Farm.

Rats infesting the granaries and
cribs on the farm have always been a
source of a great deal of annoyance and
only occasionally do we see the recepta-
cles for corn and grain SO constructed
as to be rat proof, To make them so
requires a good deal of extra effort. We
believe plenty of good cats are prefer
able to rats. A supply of female cats
will keep the farm rid of rats, and they
need not be kept about the house either
They can be taught to stay where they
are neetled.-Coleman Rural World.

Do you remember when
you ate white bait in New

of brown bread cut very
thin were served with the

When you were eating the

how the chef managed to
cut the bread so thin, with
out going through to the
other side. 1t was a secret
then; not now. He used a

some way is found to prevent the viola
ton of the game laws. Many Americans
who are fond of hunting are FESTIVE I'M
der the restrictions imposed upon them
by these laws and consider that they
have done remarkably brilliant deed II
they kill game out of season and escape
being caught at IT, They do not stop to
think what a short-sighted policy they
pursue. Their very love of hunting should
make them use every endeavor to see
that all the requirements of the game
laws are complied with. Instead OF hav-
ing private game preserves. as many
have I'm foreign countries. all Montana is
the game preserve OF her citizens, the
poor as well as the rich. Each man Is
then personally interested or should be
nearly as much interested in the preser-
walton of the game as II II belonged to
him. There is no necessity for poaching
In Montana, and killing game out OF sea-
son may come under that head. The state

Senator Carriers Speech.

The Muscular: No state in. the
union has reason to feel prouder of her
representatives in congress than Mon
tana. They are three stalwart repub-
licans, loyal to their party, true to
manhood and conscientious defenders
of the rights of their constituents. The
people of Montana with but a few dis
senting nays, believe in the use of gold
and silver as medium of exchange.
When the legislature, fresh from the
people, selected its representatives in
congress, they instructed them to work
and vote for bimetallism, and the rep
resentatives thus chosen are in honor
bound by all the sacred ties of man to
abide by those instructions. Our three
representatives, by word and deed
have demonstrated their loyalty be-
yond question to the silver cause. yet
their sincerity may be questioned by a
few democratic papers who are reluct-
ant to give credit where credit is due
due.
Senator Carter in the senate yester-
day took occasion to explain the posi-
ton of himself and silver colleagues
He was down on the calendar for a set
speech, but from the tone of his argu-
ment, his speech was more of a ques-
ton of personal privilege. He did not
want his serenity disturbed, he was at
boiling heat, carrying 100 pounds OF
steam, with the safety valves turned
on. In a polite and gentlemanly man
ner he read the riot act TO his repub-
hcan brethren who have seen fit to
criticise the actions of the Northwest
ern representatives. Senator Carter
declared that he was following the de-
claration of principles contained i'm the
Minneapolis platform, while his foren-
sic critics had distorted and inter
preted the financial provisions Of that
plank. TO suit the whims and preten-
sions of a democratic president. Sena-
tor Carter warned his republican col
leagues. that it was better to live up to
their platform promises, than to accept
their cue from the White House. 1t is
high time that the republican party
ceased playing into the hands OF the
enemy. Senator Carter may rest as
sured that the strong stand he has
taken on the silver question. meets the
appreciation of all Montanans. His
services will be appreciated and a gem
erous public will applaud him TO the
echo.

Critters Io.ltIon.

Neihart Miner: Carter is giving his
republican goldbug friends some hot
shot these days. and IL he will only fol-
low up the policy he has outlined we
shall be willing to admit that we have
been mistaken in our judgment of Car
ter's fealty to silver. To no other sill
yer senator does this stepping without
the bounds OF his party mean so much.
To one holding the position that Carter
does in the councils of the republican
party the sacrifice made in thus alien
ating himself is surely great enough to
merit the plaudits of his fellow citizens
OF Montana, regardless of party. Car
ter probably spoke in the senate yester-
day, explaining to the American peo-
pie why the republican silver senators
have defied the party caucus. In ad-
vance, however, he has sounded what
will be the keynote of his speech: Not
another dollar for protection to New
England without some silver legislation
for the West"

Helena Herald: Senator Carter was
chosen as their spokesman, and IL cam
not be doubted that he discharged the
duty with signal courage and impress
sive eloquence. Commencing with the
emphatic statement that those whom
he represented had no apologies TO
make, he Immediately assumed the Of
fensive. In a brief review of the events
of the past three years, he showed
that the anti-silver republicans have
been playing a catspaw part for Gro
yer Cleveland, whom he credited with
consummate tact and adroitness.
Proceeding, after an exhaustive ex-
position of the pending tariff measure
and the principles underlying the pro-
tective doctrine, he pointed out how
the republicans who believed in bimet-
allism and protection had been placed
in such a position as to make IL neces-
sary, apparently, for them to vote
against one of those principles to in
sure the success of the other, and this
they refused TO do. 1t was time. he
said, that the republicans take their
cue from the platform of their party.
and not from the White House. The
effect of the speech was manifestly be-
yond that of any that has been deliv-

In one OF the richest and greatest
countries on earth 200 persons die
every day of the year because they cam

The country is the United States OF

he has them in his clutches before they
know that he is near.
Consumption causes more desolation
than war. 1t casts a blacker shadow
than intemperance. To check its raw

in vain. Is IL possible. even to-day, to
cure every case of consumption? Let
us look the melancholy truth straight

But, out of the 200 lives sacrificed
every day. 500 may be saved. and T. a.

discovered a way to do IL. To trifle with
the hopes OF unfortunates who are un-

1t is with a solemn sense of response
bility for his words that DR.. Slocum
announces through the medium OF the
public press that he has found an alb
solute cure for consumption i'm any case
where the patient is actually dying.
Claims OF this sort are not infequent-
ly made. Men and women in desperate
need reach out for substantial help,
only to be Knocked by worthless things,
and to meet a disappointment that
hastens death.
Now, in order to show his deep root
ed belief in the browning work OF his
life, T. A. Slocum offers to send two
bottles Of his remedy, without money
and without price, to anybody suffering
from bronchitis. coughs. colds. infiamed
