Rate Cutting the Fashion.

There is trouble again among the Chi
cago-St. Paul lines and again it is the ac
ton of the 500 line that has caused it. Tn
to this time the 500 line has refrained from
making any effort to secure any of the Chi
cago-St. Paul business, but now the time
has come when it has arrived at the con
clusion that the business is a good thing
to have and it has made rates which il
THINKS will bring it the traffic The reeu-
lar one-way rate between Chicago and ST
Paul and Minneapolis is $11.5O, and the 500
mas made round-trip rate of $14 The
rate of the 500 is applicable to Mackinac
and Lake Michigan to Chicago over a
route that is nearly double the length of
the all-rail routes. The Great Western has
announced that it will meet the 500 rate
over its all-rail line, and the other roads
will be compelled to follow suit 1t is not
expected that the 500 line will secure anv
considerable portion of the business. but
its action makes low rates certain between
chicago and Minneapolis and ST. Paul and
has aroused no end of resentment among
the alI-rail lines.
The Wabash has announced that it will
make low rates for several military en-
campments in the East, the low fares to
apply from the Eastern committee territory

Bad Grammar and Pronunciation.

In an address upon grammer at a
meeting of the recent institute, one
of the instructors repeatedly made
use of the term ''aint" i'm the place OF
els not, lam not" and ''are not"
There is no authority for the use OF
this term, except slangy and careless
usage, and we think an instructor
in a teachers institute ought not to
vel SO palpably bad an example.
The same person used the words
had went" instead of "had gone.
He also pronounced literature" as
II spelled "literatOor," and made
various other errors Of the same
kind. There is no excuse o such
c~arelessness, especially on the part
of q professional educator. No gram
mar or dictionary authorizes such
usage as we have just mentioned,
and a decent respect ought to be
paid to recognized authority in such
matters. Slovenly speech is a seri-
GUS defect in a teacher, and 1t is to
be hoped that the teachers In attend
ance upon the institute will not
copy after the defective and faulty
examples set them in the case herein
mentioned. -

Fergus County Ranges.

r. S. Hamilton arrived I'm Helena
last week and was seen by an Inde-
pendent reporter, saying, in the
course of the interview:
sour ranges near Lewistown and
on the North Moccasin have been in
good shape this season. There was
good grass and now there is plenty
of grain and lots of hay. The people
feel as If the future was going to
bring them something. If you were
to go there talking about buying
cattle and sheep you couldn't get
them to listen to you at anything
like a reasonable figure from the
present point of view. They don't
want to sell now. They are asking
more for both than / could have got
ten for them in Chicago at the time
the price was set.
Cattle are getting scarcer. There
are only the bulls on some of the
ranges and people are shipping in
their dry cows. There is no reason
to believe, it seems to me, that next
season won't be as good or better
than this, and with some feed to
spare and a good start on h sea-
son, there is q minimum to lear from
the winter season, which cattle men
are pretty well prepared to meet"

state. While the George party en-
dorsed the Chicago platform entire,
he also stands for ''single tax" and a
dozen other isms and a vagaries with
which his name has been associated
and which are repudiated by those
of sound mind. The Tammany crowd
in ignoring silver in utter disregard
of Mr.. Bryan's wishes, have alienated
a good many who are frank to de-
clare themselves opposed to Van
Wyck. j. X. Toole, who has the
senatorial bee in his ear, is e%vasive,
and says 'outside interference In
local politics is neither prudent nor
proper" Al. Davidson, ex-national
| democratic committeeman, favOrs
the election of Henry George, while
Attorney General Nolan is just as
pronounced for Van Wyck. or course,
the views of any of them is not mo-
mentous and will have no bearing
on the result ia New York, but it
shows what a "mix up" Democracy
is i'm and that the party is not in
harmony on the issues or candidates
for any great length OF time in any
part of the country. In h east the
party is already abandoning silver
as 1T has every other issue when it
discovered that it would not land
them in office. If Tracey or Low
should be elected the party would be
in a cave Of gloom and should Van
Wyck win it will be a set back for
Bryanism.

Sheep Commissioners Report.

The report of David Hilger, sheep
commissioner for Fergus county, will
be found elsewhere. 1t is a concise
and interesting exhibit of the sheep
industry in this county. 1t will be
seen that the number of sheep has
passed the half million mark by IA, 900
head. The number of sheep sold
this year up ito date, including lambs,
yearlings, ewes and wethers, is 1885,
COZ, at an average of S2.066 per head,
making a total of 1886, 597.O 7 received
from sheep alone. The wool clip is
given at 3,505, 557 pounds, at an aver
age price of 1903 cents; amounting
to 1855, 722.4l. Total number pounds
of pelts shipped, 143, 565, at 81 cents,
$S,434.4I. The total receipts being
$S49, 1892.
This shows receipts of nearly a
million dollars by the woolgrowers
amount of wool unsold and un'
doubtedly more sheep sales to bt
reported.
Mr.. Hilger gives the flocks a clear
bill of health, there being not a cast
of scab in the county. There has
been an active demand for sheep and
the outlook for the industry wai
never brighter.
These figures show a wonderful
change for the better in a brief year
In that time all holdings have double
in value and the grower has beer
transported from the valley OF DIES
pair to the high plain OF smooth sail
ing and D~rosDerity.

NiIifierS of Hanna.

For years past the Democratic
press has resorted to the vilest abuse
of the nan who happened to be
chosen chairman of the National Re
publican Committee, particularly if
their party suffered defeat by reason
of his energy and shrewdness. Jones,
Quay and Carter came in for their
share of ~detraction. Now Mr.. Hanna
has become the target for slander
and vilification. The Democratic
press of this state has Joined in the
mud-throwing with a reckless disre-
gard for truth and fairness Notcon-
tent with accusing him of all manner
of political crimes they have endeav-
ored to make the people believe that
he was an enemy of labor, particu-
larly organized labor. In a recent
speech at GAINESVILLE, Ohio, MIR. Han
ma took occasion to reply to the
latter accusation and is quoted as
follows:
go to any one OF the 5000 men in
my employ, / don't care whether he
is a coal miner Oh a street railway
employee, whether he works on the
docks or in the shipyards, l am will
ing to abide by the verdict of those
men,. Ask them whether l eve pay
less than the highest going wages;
ask them whether l V asked them
whether they belonged to a union or
not. never did. Ask them whether,
any men OF committee of men came
to me with a complaint, / ever refused
to see them. / never did. Ask them
If they think 1 ever in my life inten'
tionally wronged any workingman.
l never did"
This plain challenge and denial
would satisfy any one but a confirmed
liar and irresponsible scribbler, but
the Democratic press, in the absence
of facts that can injure Mr.. Hanna,
will continue it's abuse as long
as he is before the public or has
any political aspirations. Sucn
methods seldom ever win in h end
but they are the first and last resort
of the opposition.

A Missoula politician who was in
Helena recently, claims to he in pos
session of some political Information
that is of interest. He learned of a
combination or slate that has been
made up for next year. The division
follows: Silver Republicans are to
have the United States senator and
he is to be the present incumbent,
Lee Mantle, the Democrats are to
have the naming OF the next congress-
man, and the Populists will have to
be content with the chief justice of
the state. Joe Toole is said to be
slated for congressman, with the in
tentiOn of grooming him for Senator
Carriers shoes. 1t will be seen that
this nice little arrangement leaves
Congressman Hartman out in the
cold after playing his cards SO cum
ningly to win fusion support again.
However, since the meeting of the
Jefferson club in Helena last week,
little credence can be placed in this
forecast oil pOntlcal events In TINS
state. Thesentiment there expressed
seemed to favor going it alone, NAM
ing only straight-out Democrats for
the offices, asking nothing from Re-
publicans and Populists except their
votes. A good deal depends upon
the attitude of Marcus Daily. He
does not like Quinn and is not par
ticularly in love with Joe Toole. He
has been friendly to Mantle and Hart
man in the past, but whether he feels
under any further obligations to
them or deems fusion essential to
success, remains to De seen. The fate
of Mantle and Hartman rests with
Marcus DAILY. What he says goes.
