Silver and Politics.

The National Review has repeat
edly stated of late that on the silver
question the London Times is utter
ly unscrupulous, and has exposed it's
falsehoods owe and over again. Now
it published, and this is cabled to
the world, that at the conference in
May last M. Meline (the French
Premier) in the presence of M. Lou
tret and Mr.. Magrin, said to Senator
Wolcott: sour support will not be
wanting" Now, the Tribune pub
lished the full sentence of M. Meline
two months ago and again last week,
copied from the National Review,
and it was as follows: "Our concur
renee will not be wanting for the
triumph of the great cause, which
we are ready to join him (Wolcott)
in defending" Moreover it was not
at any conference that the remark
was made. 1t was the closing sem
tence of a speech at a..banquet given
the American commissioners in Paris
on the eve of their departure from
Paris to London. Again, when the
Times says "politics is at the bottom
of it," that is precisely as it would be
were the New York Times discuss
ing a silver speech made by Senator
Teller or Stewart or Jones, to add:
-'Politics is at the bottom of it."
| Mr.. Meline, indeed, the entire
French cabinet, are ardent bimetal-
lists. NJ. Meline gave the French
ambassador in London minute in
%structions to join with the United
States commissioners in pressing the
matter upon the British government,
and when the Times. says "France is
not Serious" its statement is a DELHI
crate falsehood, for the cabinet of
France is just as earnest in the mat

HOPES OF

The Salt Lake Tribune is an ar
dent believer in the immediate sue
cess of international bimetallism by
the Wolcott commission. 1t confd-
entity expects England this month to
give that commission a reply grant
ing in full the several requests.
That paper further predicts that sill
yer, by Nov. 10 will be worth 50
cents.
The HERALD does not discount
the facts advanced by SO able a pa
per as the Tribune and is inclined to
the belief that the great Salt Lake
paper is possessed of information
upon this question which the public
has not yet received. The HERALD
is substantially a silver paper, and
believes in doing everything to &C.
complish the free coinage of both
metals. 1t also believes in the safe
ty of the "go-it-alone" principle.
But we are not of the number OF
those who deprecate the action of
the monetary commission, and curse
the powers which gave it birth. 1t
is an excellent commission of able.
influential and honest friends of sill
yer, who have undertaken a moment
Gus and prodigious task. They de-
serve encouragement and support by
all friends of silver. For why
should the silver mar oppose or rid
icule this commission? The thought
is laughably absurd, that a true bi,
metallist should aim to overthrow
the hopes or achievements Of this
commission. For he who processes
faith in b~imetallism, yet would
not do all in his power to aid the
commission, is a liar by his own
acts. We believe it right for men
of all parties I o hold up the hands OF
the silver commission, even while
confronted by a possibility that that
body may accomplish nothing to-
ward the desired end.
The Salt Lake Tribune is bold in
the prediction of events to occur
within the next year-events which
would turn Neihart into a Dawson
city, and a blasted desert into 9
blooming fiowerbed. Hope our Nor.
mon contemporary is right.

was a bomb shell exploded in the
headquarters Of the men who are
conspiring to reduce the masses of
the people to poverty and keep them
there.
The Times says that France tried
the tariff, but wheat continued to
fall in price until in 1885, in view of
the immense agricultural vote M.
Meline changed front and decided
that bimetallism must be tried.
Why does the Times single out
wheat? Was there anything else
except gold and interest bearing
obligations that was not falling? IL
that was M. M%eline's opinion twelve
years ago and he has been steadfast
ever since, why does the Times say:
"Politics is at the bottom of all
this" 1t is the question of the age.
The French Cabinet are unanimous
ly in favor of a full return to bimet-
allism; the English Cabinet, with a
single exception, is the same way;
the strongest men of Germany be-
lieve that reconciliation is the
worlds imperative need. The Brit
ish Commons, the Chamber of Dep
uties of France and the Reichstag of
Germany have all passed resolutions
to the same effect: why does the
hired liar, the London Times, say
that "Politics is at the bottom of all
thisT"
The cause is moving. Not before
for ten years has the prospect been
so fair for a near and final settlement
of the question On a right basis

The Inter Mountain, under the

The Inter Mountain, under the
head of "A patriotic duty" says:
The champions of bimetallism in
this state appeal with confidence and
pride to the farmers, the cattlemen
and the woolgrowers, asking them to
strengthen the hands of the silver
forces, for the copcern of one is the
concern of all, and principle appeals
for recognition above party. Thou
sands of men in this state who have
all their lives been democrats are
now virtually within the silver re-
publican ranks. No man who be.
lieves in a protective tariff on lead,
wool, hides or barley can longer call
himself a democrat, bnt every mar
who does believe in such tariff, if he
also be a bimetallist, is of necessity
on silver republican ground. Being
a protectionist he cannot be a demo
crat; being a bimetallist he cannot
belong to either of the single stand
ara partles. therefore to be reason
able and consistent he must be a sill
yer republican.
But party names should cut no fig
ure in the approaching contests. Pa
triotism must be the inspiration, bi.
metallism the war-cry and unity the
design of the silver forces. In the
presence of a great issue, minor con
%siderations should disappear as un.
worthy of men who fight for theil
convictions, and not for spoils. A.
the miners of Montana have helped
the farmers, so the farmers shoulc
now help the miners. The principl,
of bimetallism is a national one, We
it has its local features, and it be
hooves all loyal Montanans to Iool
out for Montana and to help one an
other.

The chief of the HERALD staff was
in Great Falls and Helena this week
rounding up the sinners who have
failed to reimburse this house for the
steady expenditure of money for pa
per, ink and the great brain power
necessary to keep above the waves.
Speaking of waves reminds us that
there are two distinct kind of raves
some of prosperity, some of adver-
sity-and although grown specially
familiar with one kind, we remain
quite a total stranger to the other.
Guess which kind.
There are few people able to COM
prehend the prodigious mental abil-
ity required by the country editor.
His soul constantly bows before the
altar of public good. One continual
clash of gray matter with gray mat
ter, causing the nervous ganglia of
the cerebro spinal axis in the OPP
pressed and thought burdened edi-
Tor to feel like the caulicules or cir
cumvolutions of a colk-screw, is un-
mitigated by the constant, tremend-
u intellectual strain from having
the care of a community on his
hands. Superadded to this he is
kept continually in hiding or dodg-
ing orner in order to avoid the
ruthless, tyrannical creditor. None
but the old practitioner knows the
profound truth herein contained.
But while the financial depression
is still on this house., and by sheer
exertion the pumpkin juice is
squeezed out of our cerebellum, we
are here to say that the towns visit
ed within the week are buster than
we have seer them since the crash
of 1893. Public and private enter
prises are travelling along at a more
rapid gate. The stockmen and
farmers are scattering a little of the
money received from good prices
upon their products. The suspend.
ed banks are dispensing grace abroad
in the shape of dividends to their
stockholders. Merchants in all the
towns of North Montana are enjoy
ing healthy trade conditions, and the
autumn sales will far exceed those
of any season for the past five years.
Railroad and telegraph companies
and even postmasters report a large
increase in business of every kind
And while the price of silver holds
back the progress of mining and Of
industry generally, the temporary
influx of money due to the above
mentioned causes is very noticeable

THE EATING HABIT,

The Florence shipped two cars of
its rich ore Tuesday. The writer
does not know exactly how much it
is worth, but if he had it he would
probably not have to push a pencil
for number of years to oome.-Nei.
hart Miner.
The above might be true, provid-
ed the writer practiced proper econ
omy. But upon his return to opu-
lence he would be fool enough to re-
sumo his old habit of eating, two and
three times a day! And thus his for
tune would be oon dissipated. Men
of moderate means ought not think
they can eat as often and as regular
as Grover Cleveland or Jim Hill.

WHAT FREE COINAGE MEANS.

The Neihart HERALD claims that
under a free coinage law Neihart
would sustain a population of 90
600. That is not an over estimate,
for the district is one of the richest
in the state. What a market the
town would be for all the farm pro-
ducts raised within 100 miles!
Three counties of the state would
get the benefit of the great business
which would spring up there. Cas-
cade, Fergus and Meagher would
divide annually hundreds of thou
ands of dollars. And yet there are
people in northern Montana who are
fighting the free coinage of silver
because eastern politicians and east
ern banks tell them that binetallism
is not essential to prosperity. 1t is
certainly essential to the prosperity
of Neihart, and the people who live
in that vicinity. Unless they have
wool or cattle to sell they are all
hard up just now. But many of the
wool and cattle men are as anxious
fer bimetallism as the miners are.
They are too patriotic to ignore the
interests of their neighbors. They
want all the industries of the state to
flourish 1t is only a handful OF
ofice-seeking goldbugs who are en-
dorsing the conspiracy to suppress
silver in Montana.-Butte Inter
Mountain.

1t Was Nonplused at First, but Soon Rose
to the Emergency.
Superintendent of schools he was in
a western town.
Fully equal to that exalted post he
was, perhaps more than equal. His awe
inspiring gravity indicated a learning
that was on par with any college senior
in time of commencement. That morn
ing he had chosen a class in the primary
grade to visit. AS he entered the school
the teacher rose hurriedly with
the customary embarrassment, and as
she shook his hand a warm blush climb
ed to the roots of her hair. After TAX
ing a chair beside the teachers desk his
piercing eyes bravely swept the hushed
room so filed with little men and wom-
en-. The class was reading the story of
a little runaway dog that had fallen
over a cliff to a cruel death. AT the
close of the sad tale he said:
II would like to ask this little girl in
the front seat a question. Will you
stand, my little grip"
She was q beautiful little thing with
long golden curls and eyes as blue as
the summer skies. So white and fragile.
she seemed more like a little angel than
a child of this world. She rose, but
trembling, and shyly shook her head.
"Can you tell me-" he said, "why
the little dog when he fell from the
cliff did o fly and so save HIMSELF"
She evidently seemed distressed and
instantly showed signs Of her inability
to answer the query. A slight pause fol-
lowed, then suddenly, as an idea flashed
upon her, she raised her head and said
in a voice as soft as a babbling brook:
81 tan't, sir, but my papa says fools
tan ask questions that ever wise men
tan't answer"
AS the superintendent left the school
room a few moments later he mopped
with a large cambria handkerchief
great beads of perspiration from his
brow.-San Francisco Examiner.
