A Quiet Thanksgiving.

Great Falls. Nov. 24.-Thanksgiving
day in this city has passed as quietly
as the average Sunday. There were
few people on the street. n although
the saloons served the usual gala day
drinks. eggnog. champaign punch. Tom
and Jerry. and the like, few seemed
anxious to seize the extra occasion and
there was little drunkenness. At the
churches there were large crowds. The
union service in the morning at the
Baptist church was well attended and
was a very excellent service. the music
being unusually good and the sermon
by the Rev. n. A. Chamberlain a
thoughtful discourse on the meaning OF
the day. This evening another service
was held by the scandinavian people
at the Scandinavian Methodist church
and included the members of the vari-
Gus Scandinavian and Swedish
churches. A very able sermon was de-
livered by the Rev. q. c. Scott. The
night is being concluded with a large
ball at the Par hotel given by the
Butchers union. There is a big GROVE
present and it seems to be enjoying it.

Hygiene and Ugliness.

From the New York Herald.
/ have just read a very curious arti-
Gle treating Of ugliness. And what do
you think il the cause ascribed TO II
by the author? Nothing less than dis
regard of hygiene.
So much has been written on hygiene
and-it must be admitted-so often
without rhyme or reason, that II has
become a habit to put dow everything
good to Its account and everything bad
to its absence. A o has been writ
ten on the hygiene of beauty as well as
on the hygiene OF many other things not
less strange. There seems nothing ir-
rational. In view of the present craze
for writing. in treating the public to a
book replete with data tthey all claim
to be that on "Ugliness as a Conse-
quence of Bad Hygiene" II may be
reasonably asked whether the article
to which I refer above Is not q prelim-
mary outline of such a work.
Well, I must frankly admit. however
f~ervently ] believe In hygiene. every
thing has its limits. even hygiene. Peo-
pie seem to forget by seeking TO prove
too much they prove nothing. Who will
be persuaded. forsooth. that regular
features. vivacity of expression and
freshness of eountenance are the re-
suits of perfect hygiene? Are they not
met with often enough in all their per-
lection under conditions which are dia-
metrically opposed to the precepts of
hygiene?

When approached on the subject
of a union OF forces under a name
which shall not call on both silver
republicans and populists to sur
render their whole identity by call
ing themselves democrats. the
local democrat declares that he can
not place himself out of touch with
his national organization. He
does not consider the fact that this
is just what the silver republicans
have already done, and what the
populists must do, if a success; is
made of union. We state frankly
that we very much doubt the abil-
ity of the bimetallic wing of the
democratic party to reiterate in its
next national convention the plat
form of 1896. In any event, the
destruction Of the democratic party
to the extent Of serious break is
inevitable. if the bimetallic wing
of the party prove themselves as
loyal to the cause of bimetal!ism

Out for the Offices.

The attitude Of the Shoshone
populists illustrates the motives
that actuate those who participate
in the fusion program. They are
willing to fuse on the state ticket,
but i'll county affairs they will take
everything. The reason for fusion
is officially declared to be neces-
sity for unity of action in support
Of a principle. but the motive that
controls is shown to be consum-
ing desire to secure the offices.

as the bilne,alic wing of the re-
publican party proved itself Iowa
10 the same cause. Efforts are
/ now being made by national dem
| ocratic leaders to harmonize their
party by compromising On the
money question. Mr.. Bryan and
many others equally distinguished,
are fully as jealous in endeavorins
to hold the party to the Chicago
platform. Ifthe gold men succeed in
bringing about the compromise,
the silver men must walk out; and
aud it the bimetallists control the
convention, then the gold men
must walk out. So in the event of
a straight declaration either way,
or of straddle, the democratic
party is torn asunder. When that
day comes, she is not only the mi
norlty party of the allied forces in
Idaho, but the minority of the al
lied forces in the union. We ex-
pect to see about the same loyalty
to the organization on the party
of democrats in Idaho that has been
exhibited by republicans in this
state now called the McKinleyites.
1t is for this reason that we most
seriously object to the apparent
surrender of the silver republicans
of Idaho to the democratic party,
as indicated in many of the utter
ances of Mr.. Dubois recently ap-
pearing in the shape of interviews.

This is not a bad comparison.
The republican party is willing to
go before the people on the claim
Of returning prosperity and leave
it to the people to examine the
facts. In this connection it is fit
ting to call attention to the fact
that the gold reserve is now nearly

can be expended tor national de-
Tense without negotiating a new

that during the preceding admin

were sold to buy gold to keep up
the gold reserve. Now it is differ
ent, there has been a striking i'm

Since the campaign of 1896, OF
the few nations using the silver
standard Russia and Japan have
gone to gold basis, India has ia
ken the first decisive steps in that
direction. Mexico alone remains
and Mexico is suffering from the
fluctuations Of silver. The Mexi-
can Secretary Of the treasury, in a
recent report, speaking for the
Mexican administration and ad.
dressing tn Mexican house of de-
pu,ies. declares that the principal
factors restricting foreign trade,
and consequently the receipts from
import duties, are the fall and fluc
tuation in the price of silver and
the failure of crops. Eliminating
the agricultural feature. the Mexi.
can fnancier declares the. "fluctu-
atoms in the price of silver are
more injurious than any actual de-
precia,ion." These are conditions
i'll the principal nation operating
on a silver basis, and these are the
conditions that would be presen,
in our own financial condition il
we abandon the present standard
to go 10 a silver basis.
