A GOOD THING.

Free coinage is a good thing il it!
can be obtained; il it can not be,
than there are better things than
free coinage. A good thing is worth
striving for, but discretion is the
better part Of valor and this applies
to the valor displayed by men who
are endeavoring to win as.Dloodless
victory as we'll as to those who try to
win success with the sword. The
silver man who refuses to drive back
a picket post because he can not
rout an army may be admired for
his bravery but is to be pltlcd Tor
his iudymcnt. One dollar wheat is
preferable to sixty cent wheat, and
SO is seycnty-hNe cent wheat for that
matter. The farmer who would re-
fuse to sell sixty cent wheat for
seyenty-tiye cents because lac should
| have a dollar for it would be q well
come addition to a dime: museum. LIE
would be worth ten cents a dozen
times a day to look at. Just SO with
the man who has silver to sell who
will not take seventy cents but pre-
fers sixty cents an ounce because he
ought to have 129. This is the
position occupied by the silver men
Of the west who oppose Senator Car
ters scheme to have all tue paper
money uuder $40 withdrawn with {
view Of substituting silver. While
they acknowledge that such a plar
would create a greater demand to-
silver and raise the price thcreo
they hold that by it's adoption sill
yer'S status as a commodity would bt
fixed and that its restoration as ;
money metal with the same priv
legcs us gold would be an impossible
ity. Nor necessarily SO. Not c'e1
remotely SO. Admitted that The
4 silver issue involves monetary prin
4 ciple, that principle is just as cas-
to establish when silver is sevcnt
: or eighty. cents an auncc as it
when it but sixty c3nts or less. Ia
proposition OF Senator Carter is no
ininlcal TO ihc best interests OF Nor
tana. The best inlCScStS Of Nor
tana are best subservcd by sccurin
the best prices possible for what
has to SELL Admitting that slvt
should not be a commodity it mus
be admitted that it is a commodit
and is likely to remain such for yea
to come. AS it is a commodity it
to our interest to gctas much for
as we, eau. in the inarkets Of Il
world. This talk ABOUT esttl'1Fishin
silver's future position as a'2non(
metal by the enactment Of a Ia
which insures an Increased dcmar
for it and thereby cncllanccs i
value is tommy rot. The qucstit
to be determined by the people
Montana and other mining states
will it be Of any benefit to them
have the price Of silver advance
All else is Observation-Disclosures
