IT IS MONEY EARNED
This Snow Is Worth Millions to the
Valley.
EVERYBODY WILL PROFIT
Trains on Some Branches Were
Slightly Embarrassed. But I'm

VIII Come Out on Top.

Missoula. Jan 16.-'It's worth half
million dollars to the valley" said
ranchman this noon as he shook the
snow from his fur coat, stamped his
way into a store and looked back at
the snow storm. 1t has been glori-
Gus storm in the Bitter Root and Mis-
soula valleys and farmers are all jubi-
liant 1t was early evening when the
snow began to fall and at midnight the
fierce wind had subsidized. The mercury
rose TO 10 degrees above zero ana the
snow fell evenly and quietly the rest
of the night. All day to-day II has
continued and the country is literally
buried in snow. The fall in the Bitter
Root valley is unusually heavy, the
depth tonight being nearly foot.
There has been but little delay to the
train service on the Northern Paclilc,
both the east and westbound trains be-
ing very nearly on time. The Bitter
Root train, which Is not prepared for
bucking snow as ii runs through re-
gion where IL Is not often necessary,
had a little difficulty this noon on the
plain south of town and struggled for
an hour with drift. The Occur
d'Alene train became embarrassed on
this side of the summit, between Look
out and Saltese and was not heard from
for several hours.
Here in the city the people were in
doors during the forenoon and the
streets were practically deserted. The
storm abated somewhat after IL O'Clock
and snow plows, shovels and brooms
were in use everywhere. The snowfall
has been so even that the sleighing will
be the best unless the wind blows
again.
This afternoon residents of the South
Side began to make their way across
the river for the first time in two days
and they have been busy catching up
with time. But few people have been

i'm from the country, but those who
have braved the snow report that the
storm has been general all over the
valley.

FOR HER CHILDREN.
Poor Mrs. Hiilman Clings TO Her Brutal
Husband for Their sake.

Missoula. Jan. 16.-Through wind and
snow Mrs. Hillman came down alone
from Grant creek to-day and related to
the county attorney a tale of woe similar
TO the one that she has on one or two
other occasions poured into his sympa-
thizing ear. But she did not find him such
a willing listener this time. He reminded
her of two previous occasions when he
had taken trouble to have her brutal hus-
band properly punished. and she at the
last moment had made up with him and
gone back to be cursed and beaten again.
The attorney told her that IL she would
stay with the proposition he would see
that her husband got the punishment he
deserves. but If she were to weaken and
return to him again there is no use in
taking up the case. The story which Mrs
Hillman told to-day was the same which
she has told before, and is one of ex-
treme brutality. The poor woman is no
doubt abused and ill-treated. and her hus-
band ought to he punished. Beaten and
curesd for trivial reasons and her whole
life made wretched. she still clings to her
husband for the sake of her children.

LET CAPITAL 60 TO WORK.

The election of Mr.. Mckinley is suffi-
GENTLY assured to warrant capital in going
out into all the fields of employment.
There are hundreds of millions of dollars
that have earned no income for three
years; but there have been many good
reasons for capital to hesitate to venture
since the control of the Government passed
to the hands of the Democracy.
There has been more or less uncertainty
all the time, besides nearly all capital that
was caught in industrial and agricultural
enterprises when the tariff act of 1890 was
repealed has Jared badly. But now that
II is only question of few months when
an administration friendly to the indus
tries and markets of the country will direct
the affairs of the Nation, together with
the further fact that Cleveland is power
less to infiict any further damage to busi-
ness enterprises, there should be no hesi-
tation on the part of capital.
1t is safe enough to go into the sheep
raising industry, agricultural employment
or any one of the various merchandise
manufacturing enterprises. 1t is true that
capital would not meet with much en-
results for while, but it must be remem-
bered that it will take little time to
clear the highways of the debris that
the present administration has strewn
along them. We certainly shall estab-
lish reciprocal relations with the
Latin American states and with other
countries, too. no doubt, and capital
would run no risk in making preparations
for that event. Tin plate factories will
multiply as soon as they are protected
against the Welsh intruders, but there is
no reason why capital should wait until
the actual repeal of the wilson German
act is effected, for it will be wiped out by
the time any new establishments could be
made ready to supply the tin-plate de-
mand.
A change in the policy of the Govern
ment in the interest of home Industries
and home labor is as certain as could be,
and capital should anticipate coming
opportunities for profitable and safe en-
ployment by taking time by the forelock,
so to speak. Right here in San Francisco
capital should be looking about to build
shipyaros, for the building of a merchant
marine is sure to follow close on the heels
of Mr.. McKinley's Inauguration.
Investment in iron works from furnace
to mills to turn out finished products
would prove remunerative, as would
woolen and other fabric factories. In
short, there is not line of industry that
is not now safe for capital to enter. If
there was any uncertainty as to the out
come of the present political contest there
would be reason for capital to hold back,
but there is no risk at all on that score,
unless the majority of the people of the
United States should go daft before the
ides OF November.

HIGH ART.

The picture of William Mckinley in yes-
terday's CALL is the summit of newspaper
portraiture. As work OF high art it has
never been equaled on the Pacific Coast,
and never been excelIed anywhere; be-
sides, as likeness of the original, the pic
ture is faultless.
A member of THE CALLS art department
was dispatched to Canton, Mr. McKinley's
home, for the express purpose of obtaining
an exact likeness of the next President,
and Mr.. Mckinley kindly gave sitting.
When the portrait was finished, the family
and friends of Mr.. Mckinley pronounced
it a perfect likeness, and Mr.. Mckinley
indorsed their opinion by affixing his own
signature to the drawing, for it was a pen
and ink portrait from life.
The difference between portrait
sketched from life, as this one was, and
one taken by the camera is marked, as may
be seen by comparison. 1t will be seen
that THE CALLS portrait of Mr.. Mckinley
leaves the lines and facial expression as
they are naturally, thus depicting in ac-
curate delineation his character, as ex-
pressed in his face, to the life. THE CALL 8
readers would do well to preserve this
most accurate likeness of the next Presi-
dent.

nor less 10 say the Declaration of Inde-

either susceptible of being twisted into
more than tone idea'' of purpose. Pro-
lection, as the Republican party under
stands the definition of the word to be,
means-first, to give all the encourage
ment possible to every American citizen
to better his condition of living, and to do
that in the most effective way reciprocity
of interests is esta bllshed to the end that
each member of the family of American
sovereigns shall secure his just proportion
of the general wealth increases of the
country; and second, to protect his prop
erty acquisitions against the attacks OF
outsiders, who would not only deprive
him Of what he has already accumulated,
but deny him the right of life, liberty and
the pursuit of happiness. The Democracy
is right. Mr.. Mckinley and the Repub-
lican party have but zone idea-the idea
of protection" to everything that true
Americanism stands for.

THE SUNDAY CALL.

The California bathing girl is the one
that really gets wet when she dons her
pretty bathing suit. In many parts OF
Europe ana in the Eastern States it is
fashionable to parade the beach in full cos
tume-or absence of it-never wetting
more than the soles of the feet, or possibly
the ankles. The California bathing girls
costume is none the less chic and modish.
yet it is made to withstand the effects of
extreme moisture. aside from her prone
ness to get wet, the California bathing girl
has many other distinctive qualities and
graces, some of which have been set forth
iu verse by THE CALLS poet and beauti-
fully illustrated by one of THE CALLS
artists. The California Bathing Girl" as
treated in THE SUNDAY CALL, will be en-
joyed as a unique and striking feature of
these latter days of journalism. And be-
sides being beautiful and shapely and
fashionably attired, she is still modest.
She and her costumes are given a page in
to- o-morrow's issue.
There are many other pages, remem Der.
And every one of these additional pages
contains its own particular bright and at
tractlve feature or features, many of which
are decidedly novel, and all OF which are
new. entertaining and interesting to all

small number OF property owners who'im-

Road an opportunity to sell their property to

price than they could hope to get from any
one else are likely to be disappointed, if the
result OF condemnation suits in the counties
north of Fresno can be taken as an indication
of public sentiment in regard to the policy of
obstrueting for profit. Two cases of this kind
were concluded in Merced yesterday in which
the property-owners demanded total of ST.

They were awarded 1897 so. The policy of
the Fresno committee has been to pay all that
the property is actually worth, when required
by the owner, and it is not probable that a
jury of citizens will be found to do more than
that. To the contrary, those who are willing
to accept fair offer or submit to arbitration
are likely to fare better than those who insist
upon litigation and the expenses which ac-
crue under that method.
