Notwithstanding the prominence at
tanned by free silver in the senate de-
bates of the last two weeks. it seems rea-
sOnably certain that the main issue of the
coming presidential campaign will be
the tariff Exchange.
We beg to differ with the brother. The
main issue of the presidential campaign
this year will be the money question.
The silver men have insisted for months
that the tariff was matter of only sec
ondary consideration, and now the gold
men make similar declaration. Here,
for instance, is an interview in the New
York sun with Mr. lIentz, chairman Of
the special committee on ''sound tinan.
clal legislation" of the New York cham
Der of commerce, which has come out
for the gold standard. Mr.. Hentz says,
speaking of the money question:
The question must he settled. 1t
hangs like a cloud over all the business
of this country. The whole question
should be taken out of politics. If it re-
mains an open question after this elec-
tion, it abdes with us for at least four
years more. The cost to the country
and to this generation of such thing is
beyond calculation. If either party is
in favor of the free coinage of silver, let
it say so: then we can know what it
means. The politicians of both parties
may as well understand that the bust
ness men do not care the flip of a copper
about party traditions and old party ties
in the presence of burning question
which reaches to the hearthstone of
every citizen. We will endure no
more humbug nor deceit The fight j.
on, and it is "A fight to the finish.

This agreement, made on the above date

FISKY is ON DECK.
He Wants to Run the Old Casino UNDER
an Entirely New Method.

Great Falls, Jan. 14-Attorney George
u Stanton addressed the city council
last night in behalf of his client Fisky
Barnett, whom he declared had closed
the Casino theater at the request or
the council, and discharged the women
employed at that notorius resort.
stanton said that Barnett had reform
ed and was now anxious to open
beer hall a nice, respectable place
and before making necessary changes
in the old Casino building wished to
INQUIRE If there were any objections TO
his obtaining a saloon license. In the
new business Mr.. Barnett would en-
nlov only musicians and stage artists,
and no box rustlers or naughty fea-
lures of that character would be toll
Grated for an instant.
Alderman Fitzgerald, who has stood
by Risky all the way through. refusing
10 vote to revoke Barnett's license at
the last council meeting, expressed the
opinion that the license should be
granted. adding that If the place was
not run properly the license could be
revoked at any time. Alderman Young
had little faith in Fisky's proposition
of reform and thought that no license
should be granted, as the council mad
put a quietus on one resort or a ques-
tionable character. and the granting OF
a license TO the same parties would
only be opening the same place under
the thin disguise of a new name. Aid
erman Fletcher took the floor and de-
scribed in a graphic, detailed and lurid
style the scenes that had occurred in
the Casino boxes and expressed grave
doubts as to Fisky's reformation or
ability to conduct a public resort of
this character in a proper manner.
Finally a motion prevailed that the re-
quest for a license be laid over until
the next regular meeting. Certain
members of the council surprised their
friends by remaining singularly quiet
on a subject they have heretofore de-
nounced in the most emphatic terms.
There are now three beer halls con-
Quoted in Great Falls in a quiet. order
ly manner. and the impression OBJ
tains that Barnett wants to crawl into
his old method of conducting business
under the guise of running a similar
beer hall. A good deal Of interest is
manifested in the case and the actions
of the different members of the council
are being closely watched.
