Many new sidewalks have been put
down this spring and there is room for
many more. In this connection we
might speak Of the repairing being
done about town. Defective boards
that are partly decayed are being patch
ed by putting new ones over them, ma
king the walk almost as dangerous as
before the repairing was done. At but
little more expense the old boards
could be replaced with new ones, both
improving the looks and reducing the
danger to the minimum.

Hazing at West Point.
HE New York Sun has been shoy

HE New York Sun has been show
ing up the hazing practiced at
West Point in a manner that
reflects anything but credit on the haz-
ers or the institution that tolerates the
custom. The treatment of boys during
their first year is something almost
shocking. No boy has the courage to
expose the cruelties to which he is sub
jected He fears, and justly SO, that if
he said word he would lose his social
position. A new boy never has a chance
for fair fight; he is invariably pitted
against boy of superior strength and
skill. He must stand " and fight I'M
til he is knocked out. Broken jaws and
broken constitutions are often the re-
en- half to death. 1t is a shameful
story; and perhaps the most curious
part of it is that this years 'plebs,'
after being thoroughly hazed, will turn
around next year and practice precisely
the same cruelties upon their success
ors. Hazing is dying out of the older
American colleges, in some it has been
entirely eradicated; but the reform has
come about more through the volun-
tary action of the students themselves
than as a result of the pleadngs or
warnings of the faculty. In justice to
the present administration at West
Point it should be said that it is MAX
ing an heroic effort to suppress hazing;
but it is to be feared that it will con-
tinue secretly to exist until some cour-
ageous second-year class sets the prece-
dent of treating "plebs' with ordinary
courtesy and decency.

Still we know that for three years
exceptionally short crops in Europe
There can be no doubt about that. For
forty years prior to 1873 the average
price of wheat at New York was not
less than one dollar and twenty-five
cents a bushel-about fifty cents more
than the present price Such conditions
of supply and demand as have prevailed
during the last three or four years
would at any time during the forty
years referred to have sent wheat to
a dollar and a half or two dollars
bushel, whereas it ranged generally
from sixty to seventy cents.
What, then, is the matter? Prior to
1898 We had the blighting competition
of India to contend with-a competition
on silver basis. But partly owing to
crop failures there and partly to the
closing of the mint in that country. In
dia has latterly been a scarcely appre-
ciable factor. An investigation will no
doubt show that, to a considerable ex-
tent, the low price of wheat is owing to
Argentine competition on a paper mon
ey currency that is heavily deprecated
below the gold level. The principle of
this competition is precisely the same
as that which formerly gave the East
Indian the advantage and sent up the
wheat exports of that country from
less than 100000 bushels in 1873 to
nearly 100000 in 1891.
With wheat at an average of sixty
cents on the farm, corn at twenty-five
and oats at eighteen, it is scarcely to
be wondered at if the farmers, repre-
senting nearly one-half of our popula-
ton, feel that they are not getting
their share of the prosperity which is
now said to abound.

Special Dispatch to the Standard.
Great Falls, Aug. 31.-J. w. Williams
broke into the store of P. j. Reagan on
Fifth avenue south at about o'clock
this morning. Mrs. Blackwood, who
lives across the street from the store
and who was up at that hour Look ng
out, saw Williams trying to get into the
store, and later, when he was inside,
striking a match Then she ran to the
house of Mr.. Reagan on Fourth avenue
and rousing the house told OF what she
had seen. Reagan and his brother
Charles and Pat Humphreys ran to the
store and guarded the doors. Then
they called to the robber to come out.
He Immediately replied:
"All right, I'll come"
And in a few minutes appeared at the
front door, stating Immediately, Il am
an honest man." His captors, not
doubling his statement in the least.
thought it just as well that he should
accompany them to the police station,
which be seemed willing enough to do.
There he gave his name and stated that
he was an American As years of age,
and a railway man by occupation. In
his pockets were found bunch of keys,
ticket punch and nothing else. He
had been trying to remove the pane of
glass from the front door when his tool
slipped and broke the glass, making the
noise which aroused Mrs. Blackwood.
He was transferred to the county TAIL
and will be arraigned tomorrow proba-
bly,. There is a suspicion that he Is not
quite right in his head.

Wheat Supplies and Prices.

~ HE London statist estimates
that European wheat-importng
countries will this year need
100000 bushels of that cereal, which
is 100000 bushels in excess of the re-
quirements of last year. Russia and
Roumania are both said to have short
supplies for export, and the American
crop is figured at 55OOO0,0O0 bushels
150,000,000 less than that of last year.
Even this is thought by some to be an
over-estimate, probably including the
Canadian crop of something less than
90, 000, 900 bushels.
According to the Statist's view, of the
total amount required by Europe, this
country will be called upon for about
215,000, 900 bushels, which, at the high
est estimates given, would only leave
2s5, 900 bushels for home consump-
ton, or If the actual crop should be no
more than 500 900, 900 bushels, 2S5, 00O, 900
bushels would be the quantity remain
ing for home use.
Probably, to call it 100000, 900 would
approximate the actual figures. This
NOulu bS lOuI buSItlS per capita lOi
the population of the country. For the
last thirty years the average annual
consumption of wheat in the United
States has been not less than five and
ene-fourth bushels per head for the
total population. 1t appears then, from
the Statist's figures that in order 10
supply the wants of Europe, we must
create a very considerable shortage at
home.
Such condition would naturally sug-
gest very high price for the grain.
But turning to the market reports, We
find that it is lowering around the sew
enty-cent mark at Chicago, while it is
quoted at from fifty-five to sixty cents
at Omaha. At New York it is about
seventy-six cents. So that upon the
eastern farm it may be set down at
from sixty-fiye to seventy cents, while
in the Mississippi and Missouri valleys
the range is anywhere from forty-five
to sixty-five cents. These prices are
certainly not what We would naturally
look for with an available surplus in
this country 900 bushels below
the normal.

On the Jump.

Missoula, Aug. 31.-The sheriff and
the county attorney have been on the
jump nearly all day on account of the
procedure of Justice of the Peace Ad-
ans and Constable Massey at Thomp-
son Falls. 1t appears that a deputy
sheriff of Shoshone county, Idaho and
a United States marshal from there
attempted to search for some suspects
in the case of the recent release of
prisoners from Wallace. The con-
stable placed the two men under ar
rest on the ground that they had no
right to search in Montana. He wired
the county attorney for advice, and
the case has been under consideration
all day. Tonight a cash bond has
been furnished here for the two men
under arrest. and matters are at rest

1t Is All Right.

~ NE feature in the platform adopt
W ed day before yesterday by the
Ohio democrats is that its silver
utterance is the dismay of so-called sill
yer republicans who have been trying
to make out a case of democratic deser-
ton.
The opening sentence in the Ohio
platform sets forth the whole situation.
1t is a declaration of answering 10y
atty to the issue on which the national
election of 1896 was fought out. 1t is
SO clear that there can be no bubble
over it's meaning. The platform says
in the name of the democrats of Ohio:
I'VE heartily re-affirm the entire Chi
cago platform of 1896, and we especially
emphasize the financial plank therein,
and we continue to demand the free and
unlimited coinage of silver and gold as
equal in primary money at the ratio of
16 to /, independent of all other nations
In the world
That is the length and breadth of the
creed to which the democratic party in
the United States stands committed as
the result of the proclamation of prin-
ciples made three years ago. The plat
form is of highest significance, wherein
it foreshadows the politics of the year
that is to come. especially in view of
the fact that it is the marking of the
lines along which a significant state
election in the presidents home must
be followed.
While persisting for free coinage as
the foremost issue, and accepting Bry-
ans leadership for the campaign that is
to come, the Ohio democrats framed
into their platform a statement denun-
ciatory of President McKinley's war OF
conquest. The declaration on the ques-
ton of Imperialism is notice to the
president that he must face the music
and that he may as well prepare to get
his people on the stump for the best de-
Tense they can manage to make.

Extradition Laws.

~ HE state of Illinois for several
weeks has been trying to recov-
err possession of the person of
William Armstrong, an alleged jury
briber. Armstrong was caught in the
state of Washington as he was about
to flee the country. which is pretty good
evidence that he is guilty of the charge.
Although he was captured several
weeks ago he has succeeded in battling
all attempts of the Illinois authorities
to get hold of him. His case has been
taken from one court to another and
been stayed time and time again, until
the Chicago papers confess that their
patience is exhausted. The Chicago
Times Herald demands a revision of
the extradition laws as they exist in the
various states. at has come to pass in
this country" says the Times-H Herald,
that the extradition laws are being
constantly used for the shielding of
criminals from justice and for the sell
fish ends of INSCRIPTIONS lawyers.
These are not the purposes for which
our extradition laws were intended, and
it is high time that something were
done to restore to them some thing like
their original function" The Chicago
paper exaggerates to some extent-as
a rule criminals wanted in one state
and arrested in another are promptly
returned. But it is true there are ex-
asperating and expensive exceptions.
