to the Republican fold, now that
Kansas IL again prosperous.
But this Is not all. A majority OF
the silver Republicans are weary OF
Democratic pretensions and promises
and are coming back to their first
love. They have been cats paw
for Democratic chestnuts long
enough. They have found the party
faithless and insincere on the only
question that gained their support.
They find that the party Is endeav-
Oring to keep the silver issue alive in
the mining states while IL Is trying to
kill 1t elsewhere. Ex-senator Mantle
was interviewed in Washington last
week and among other things spoke
OF the support given the Democratic
party ~ follows:
But In the west one thing is certain;
there will be no m IRE alliance Of Silver
Republicans with Democrats. The
help that was given by the Silver
Republicans In past campaigns will
not he forthcoming. and all talk of
fusion in the future Is idle. The DEM
Ocrats welcomed the Silver Republi-
cans as allies in close states, but in
states where they secured the ascend
ancy repudiatcd them in the most
cOntemptuous manner. The men
who received this treatment Hre not
likely 10 put themselves in position
to experience II again, and whatever
the Democrats hope tn accomplish in
stat ties like Montana and Utah they
will have to achieve without the aid
Of any other party.
Mr.. Mantle states the facts clearly
and we are only sorry that he was
so long finding out the true char.
acter OF those with whom he cast
his fortunes in 1896. Mr.. Mantle will
undoubtedly be found In line with
the Republican party next year, if he
il not there already.

Admiral Dewey, on board the
Olympia, sailed out of Manila harbor
last Saturday for New York. Can
mons roared and bandsplayed"Home,
Sweet Home" Theadmirale expressed
fear OF his too demonstrative coun-
trymen. As the Olympia makes a
number OF stops on the homeward
trip it may be two months before she
arrives in New York harbor. The
gallant admiral would like peaceful
and quiet homecoming and expresses
desire to go at once To his old home
in Montpelier, Vermont. But the
American people will not let him
down quite so easy. Aside from his
great naval victory Admiral Dewey
has displayed marked good sense in
everything he has done since. He il
wise man who can keep his head
i'm the hour OF success and when II
world stands ready to do him hom-
age. Dewey is all right.

The laboring men of the nation are
not to be hoodwinked They know
that the whole course of legislation
under Republican rule has been in
favor of corporations and trusts.
Helena Independent.
The man who will write such stuff
has the nerve and conscience Of a
high wayman. The laboring men Of
this country have seen a little, yea,
altogether too much of Democratic
legislation. They have seen their
children crying for bread because
they could not earn dollar to relieve
their suffering; they have seen mills
and factories closed To thousands Of
their brothers; they have seen banks
fail day after day aud government
bonds refused as security for loans;
they have witnessed CoXey's army
travelling about the country in rage
against theconditions brought about
through Democratic ascendency and
the introduction of Democratic poll
cies. These things are fresh in their
memory. They know how different
Is the situation to-day. There is
work for all who desire it and at
good wages, and their money is ready
when the labor il performed. The
wages of over million operatives
have been advanced in the past year.
1t should be remembered that il was
the Independent which said of the
recent legislative session Of Montana
that it was "a boss ridden, corpora.
ton body" although its party was
In absolute control. Laboring men
have heard the delusive song OF the
Democratic siren once too often; be
not deceived again.

IN A BAD PLIGHT.

The forces that concentrated to
give William Jennings Bryan a re-
spectacle vote In 1896 can never be
marshaled under one banner again
and without which Mr.. Bryan can
never hope to be president of the
United States. The Popullsts, what
there are Of them, have declared
against fusion in unmistakable Ian
guage. They have found that while
the Democrats wereeager to get their
votes they were unwilling to concede
a fair division of the offices. They
are tired of such perfidy and double
dealing and prefer to go 1t alone.
States like Kansas that were strongly
innoculated with Populism have been
redeemed and are now safely in the
Republican column. Even ex-Sena.

wash Your Eye"la sseS.

'Spectacles and eyeglasses are as
much benefited by bath now and
then as people are says a well known
optician. 1T is strange how many
people there are who think that their
glasses only need an occasional WHIP
ing. Now, the fact is, glasses re-
quire actual baths as frequently as
does the ordinary person. The pro-
cess is as simple as you want to make
it. My plan, however, is to take the
glasses to wash bowl and give them
good soaking in warm water. Then
apply soap freely and rub it off by the
use of soft tooth or nail brush
After that give them polish with any
OF the usual tooth powders, and then
clean them with tissue paper, which is
much better for the purpose than
chamois skin or anything else that
know of. The ordinary cleansing is
all right far it goes, but it is
not sufficient. Many persons have
done great injury to their eyes by ne
glecting to properly cfean their
glasses. 1 have had number of pa
tients come to me with complaints
about what they called gradual dimi-
mutton of their sight. An examina-
ton revealed the fact that it was won

ror maiden or sucn talent, renne
ment and industry, the future con-
tains good fortune. Katherine grew
to womanhood, following the prize
of early years with many more valua-
BILE and difficult to obtain. She came
to occupy the position as teacher in
her own home school; and the chill
dren, who fell under her sway, testify
with one accord to her largeness of
mind and heart.
But four square walls of a school
room failed to contain the ambitious
Katherine. The world must be her
stage. With the eye of an artist she
saw details, as well as general effects
and impressions. Every word she
wrote reached the heart of the Peo-
pie. This led to brilliant literary
career. Her manuscripts were ac-
cepted and printed with pride. She
was sent by one of the leading dailies
in our metropolis to report the situa-
ton in Hawaii at the time of its re-
be!lion. After her return a metro
politan paper secured her services as
its London correspondent.
However, this fame did not injure
the original self of Katherine. Even
in the homes of royalty and when re-
ceiving the multitude of tributes of
fered a representative of our great ma
ton abroad, she never forgot the let
ter home; and in it were comments of
greater merit than those which reach
ed the public's eye The humble home
of her parents was often filled with
groups of friends listening to the SIM
pie story of travel, allotted the

BRITISH AND BOER WAR.

LONDON, December 16-(Morning.)-
TIE war Office has received dispatch
announcing that Con. Bullor has mot
with n serious reverse, losing ton guns.
Con. Bul.or was attempting to GROSS tho
Tugela rivor. Finding it impossible to
offeot his object, ho ordered retirement
in order to avoid greater losses.
We mako tho following extracts from
Con. Buller's report:
"Early in the day saw that Con. Hart
would not be able to forco q passage,
and l directed him to withdraw. Ho
had, however, attacked with great gal
lantry, and his leading battalion, the
Connaught Rangers, l foar, suffered a
great doal. Col. l. G. Brooke was sori-
ously wounded. Tho fourteenth and
sixteenth field batteries suffered severe
losses.
LONDON, Decomber -(Afternoon.)-
Con. Butler reports to tho war Office
that his losses in yesterdays engage
ments were: Killed, SO; wounded, 6G7;
missing, 348; total of 1907.
The revised list of the British casual
tics at tho battle of Magcrsfontein shows
tho total to be 063, of which number 70
were officers.
The British losses, in killed, wounded,
prisoners and hissing throughout tho
campaign, now roach the enormous total
of 1880.
