Helena is making great preparations
for the laying of the cornerstone of the
State Capitol on July 4th, and for the
entertainment of the many visitors from
all over the state who will be within her
gates on that day. The Grand Lodge of
Masons of Montana will oficiate at the
ceremony at the Capitol grounds and
various lodges, societies and unions will
participate.
1t is the intention of the committees
having the arrangements in hand to
make it, not a Helena celebration, but a
state affair, and an invitation is extended
to every citizen of Montana to attend.
The railroads will make a special rate
for the occasion, and the day set aside
for the laying of the cornerstone being
also the nations birthday, will no doubt
attract large crowds to the capital city,

The exchange of patriotic sentiment
about the country over Memorial day
has revealed to the American people
that the persons who are ready to cast
disrespect on the government of their
country cut practically no figure. They
are both few and UNDECIDED. 1t recalls
the fact that at one time people. seemed
to have a slight uncertainty as to what
moral influence might be behind the
anarchists of Chicago. AS soon as the
Grand Army men announced that they
would drive from the streets the first
anarchist flag that showed itself, that
form of manifestation disappeared.

The effort of the Cuban military
authorities to get money for themselves
by padding the army p~ay-rolls with
fictitious names was fully checknated
by the conditions imposed by the United
States, that the soldier must attest the
genrineness of his service by giving
p his gun. The officers scheme was
beaten, but it had the effect of cutting
down the per capita allowance for the
soldiers.

The world has not had the same de-
mand for American agricultural pro-
ducts this year as during the n pre-
ceding, which was n of general
scarcity in other lands. That made a
difference in prices on wheat and a
falling off in the value of our agricul-
tural exports. The increase in the
exports of American manufactured
goods, however, has practically made
the difference good.

STEALING DEMOCRATIC THUNDER
REGISTER
Wheeling, w. Va.

In the campaign of 1896 Republican
orators hooted at the Democratic claim
that the country needed more money
and dubbed the argument of the Demo-
cratic side cheap money sophistry."
Since then they have acknowledged
the force and truth of the Democratic
contention and the deception and false
hood of their own by increasing the
circulating medium of the country
$502, ZIG, 445i
Think of 1.-THE volume Of money
in the United States from July 1, 1896,
to December 1, 1S99-but three years
and five months-increased over half
a billion of dollars, and by the very
persons who declared it was cheap
money lunacy" to think of such a
thing, because under the precious gold
standard the country had all the money
it needed!
Let us examine into the facts and get
at how this increase of over $500, 000,-
900 in the volume of our currency has
been made. The following table shows
tae increase in the different kinds of
money in circulation from July l, 1896,
to December l, 1899-three years and
five months:

After all Consul Macrum. who has
been roundly abused and dubbed calf
for asking to be relieved, may have
the best of reasons for his action, as he
claims, in the possession of information
for Washington that could not be
transmitted except by word of mouth.
Since he was on the best possible terms
with President Kruger, this communi-
cation is evidently u~nfavorable to the
English side of the disputes believed,
in fact, to be from Kruger, himself.

We have In the slumping prices Of Wall
street to-day.
The main point of the facts and
figures quoted is to show the rank in
consistency of the advocates Of the
single gold standard and how directly
their acts contradict their theories and
arguments, proving their insincerity
and false ~pretenses. They have in
creased the volume of money in less
than three and one-half years by over
half a billion of dollars, only about
$171, 000, 900 of which increase is their
accepted money of final redemption
gold coin, the remainder being yer
worse than cheap" money, since there
is nothing at all, according to the gold
standard argument, to show for it in
the United States Treasury to-day.
BY this sort of hocus pokus does the
able money juggler at the head OF the
Treasury Department deceive the un-
initiated public in the interest of the
national bankers, of which he is one,
and the gold sharks. He issues what,
according to Mr.. Cages view, must be
the same thing as fiat money to relieve
the strained situation in the business
world, whereas the honest Democracy
would increase the circulating medium
of the country by increasing the u
try's stock of actual money-money of
final redemption-by remonetizing one
of our constitutional money metals
silver-thus relieving the stringency
in the only direct, honest and legiti-
mate way and by the only means that
will provide real or permanent relief.
Which is the best method-the hon.
est, Constitutional Democratic plan,
under which this nation saw it's
greatest growth, or the hokus pokus
trick method of Mr.. Gage of building
an unwieldy, top-heavy circulating
medium with nothing behind it, thus
arbitrarily increasing the national OBJ
legations and the burdens of the
people?
