1~HE specious pretext for getting
back into the goldbug fold
put forth by some of the So
called silver-republican newspapers of
this state. that the democratic party
has abandoned the silver issue, has re-
celVed occasional attention at the
hands of the Standard. The plea never
had a shadow of foundation. no in
telligent man ever seriously believed
that it had, and its fallacious character
has been completely exposed both by
the logic of argument and the logic Of
events. In these states, wherein silver
ever had any affirmative strength,
there is not the slightest evidence of
weakening in the ranks of the dem
ocracy, and every convention of the
party held in such states has spoken
with no uncertain sound.
A new argument, or rather a new ex-
cuse must be found This class of
newspapers in Utah has dug one I'D.
and it will be interesting to observe
how long or how short a time it will be
before it will find an echo in Montana.
production of gold has practically
solved the money question and that il
is worse than useless to renew the fight
of 1896, with a gold production of
$3.50, 900, 900 year. "A large money sup
ply is what we demanded" they say,
and we are getting it through tine in
creased production of gold. Then why
yer restoration? And especially now,
when prosperitys sunshine is flooding
the country"
This contention has an advantage
over the Montana plea. in that il has
the semblance of an economic argu-
ment, and is not fabrication pure and
simple. 1t has a further advantage
in placing those who make it where
they rightfully belong, in the ranks of
the party that is absolutely committed
to the gold standard.
But as an argument it will not bear
analysis. In the first place we have
not yet reached the $3.50. 900, 900 mark.
The director of the mint merely esti-
mates the product for 1899 at $34O, O0O,-
600, and it may fall many millions be-
low that figure. But suppose it should
reach the amount named? Is the re-
publican party entitled to any credit
for that? Has not that party tried by
every means in It's power to limit the
supply of money? Has not its every
act been in the interest of the money
changers and against the toiler and
producer? When silver was demonet-
lied the annual production of gold was
only about 500, 100000.
The wrong was a gigantic one, but
every movement for its undoiQg was

BertiIlon Caps the Climax.

"a ERHAPS as amusing as any evil
~ dence that has been offered in
the Dreyfus trial is that of NJ.
Bertillon. His attitude during his en-
tire occupancy of the witness chair
was that of Sir Oracle Let no dog
bark at his testimony. His ipse dixit
settles the whole matter. Let Dreyfus
be as innocent as you please, if Bertil-
lon said Let Dreyfus be guilty, he would
be guilty. For all the amazing gall
and egotism that has been displayed
since the world and the Dreyfus trial
began, Bertillon takes the banner
What is the matter with these latter
day Frenchmen? Is France one big
lunatic asylum? Occasionally a sane
man puts in an appearance, but he is
such rarity as to excite comment. The
testimony, as we get it, is all in favor of
the defense. But that's no sign that
the defense is coming out victorious.
The palpable discontinue of several
witnesses for the prosecution, including
MERCER and Mauriel would have great
weight with any impartial jury, but it
goes for naught with such men as
Jousaust What an imposing array of
liars, blackguards and towards the
prosecution has set before the world!

resisted by the great and dominant
bulk of the republican party. Why:
Because it has been controlled by the
moneyed interests of the country, and
it is so controlled to-day. The domino
ton of those interests in 1896 was SO
patent that it led to a good sized re-
volt within the organization. What has
the republican party done to redeem it
self that those who then left it should
return to it's ranks?
The great aim and purpose of the
money power is to restrict the money
supply, to keep money dear, to depress
prices so that the accumulated dol
lars" shall have all the advantage.
Who can doubt that the same principle
will hereafter be applied, and that the
republican party will be the instrument
employed to reach the desired end? Do
we not see this clearly in the deter
mined effort that is being made to OBJ
tain complete control of the paper cur
rency? And, is there any room for
serious question that the silver dollars
already coined will be eliminated from
our monetary system just as soon as
possible? What then will the increased
supply of gold really amount to?
The most that can be fairly said
with reference to the enlarged output
of gold is that in providential way. in
spite of the Vaccinations of the money
power, it has given a measure of relief
by checking the downward movement
of prices. If this has been an aavan-
tage, and measurably it has been, then
it follows by the most memorable logic
that the reconciliation of silver would
have greatly increased that advantage.

FOR THE VOLUNTEERS.
Ball to BE Given Under the Auspices of
the Fire Departments.


A grand ball to be given under the
auspices of the city and volunteer fire
departments is the latest plan to be
spoken of by which to raise money to
help receive the volunteers. This has
not yet been definitely decided, but it
was whispered around yesterday, and
it is very probable that in view of the
great success of the charity ball last
April, the promoters of the plan will
go ahead with the good work
The ball would be under the auspices
of the city fire department and the
lower works, upper works, foundry and
brewery volunteer fire departments.
The tickets would be sold at 81 each,
and If the sales were large, probably
the two halls in the city, the A. o. H.
and the Turner hall, would be charter
ed for the evening.
Mr.. Armbruster, who was formerly
connected with the Anaconda Brewing
company, was seen by a Standard re-
porter last evening in regard to the
matter. He said:
Il will talk to the boys at the brew
cry about this and / would not be sur
prised in the least If the beer fellows"
came out with a little subscription on
the side. The volunteer fire depart
ment of the brewery has got about
$50 in its" treasury and this money
could not be used to any better pur-
pose. ! will probably not be in the
city on the evening of this grand ball,
but you can just bet that no matter
where I am I will send in the price
of several tickets at least. The pro-
ceeds will be large and will help to
entertain the boys on their arrival
here"
Magistrate J. NJ. Kennedy, when seen
in regard to what should be done in
Anaconda for the returning volunteers,
said:
Il am not in favor of spending a lot
of money upon brass bands and red
fire. Our enthusiasm should take a
more practical form. If we have a few
dollars to spend upon the boys let US
use it in caring for the sick and help
ing the needy. When the volunteers
cast aside the blue uniforms that they
have so honorably worn some of them
may be unable to find work at once
and others may be physically unable to

Poor IO Is Thriving.

IN the current number of one Of the
magazines, ex-senator Dawes of
Massachusetts. always a steadfast
friend of the Indians, examines at some
length the Indian policy of the United
States and pronounces it success. The
Indians, he declares. are increasing in
numbers and advancing in civilization.
The work Of caring for Poor 10 was
begun in 1877, with an appropriation of
$4,000. This sum has been increased
until this year the appropriation is
s., 63s, $3.50. The result of these years Of
care is that the Indians are becoming
rapidly civilized. There are $4,000 In

Indians owning individual farms. ag-
gregating 6,7OS,62S acres. and 1,O66 36S
acres have been fenced in. There are
among the Indians 2S,351 church COM

says. there are now probably as many
Indians in the United States-a total
OF $50, 000-as when the country was first
discovered. And this estimate is prob
