WOOL RATES GUT
REDUCTION OF Is PER CENT
FROM GREAT NORTHERN
TERRITORY IN EFFECT.

Northern territory, ave gone to pieces,
and a cut of something like Is per cent
is now in effect. Tariffs or the reduced
basis are now being prepared.
The cause of the smash is the stagna-
tion in the Montana wool market. the
growers expecting to realize considerably
more for their clips than the buyers are
willing to pay. The eastern mes became
nervous over the delay in shipments and
thought it necessary to reduce rates in
order to induce shipments.
Wool is one Of the largest items of traf-
fc from Montana, as the annual crop
amounts to about %, 600, 900 pounds, and
this cut is of like Importance to the roads
and the shippers.

We wish you, in your field, every possible success. You have nothing that we know of that we want or could use, ex- cept your influence in securing state hood and other benefits for the teri tory We both love. We might call each other names from now until dooms- day and what good would We accom- plish? How much better off would either eff us be? Let's tote fair. Lets work together for Arizona, her .devel- opment and her prosperity. Arizona is so rich in opportunity that if every journal in the territory eXerted itself to it's utmost toward making them known to the outside world it would have n5 time nor desire to villify. It is The Republicans ambition to present to the world Arizona as she is, in her rich beauty, in her incomparabIe scenic effects; to carry the news to all people of her grand forests, her mineral wealth, aer almost unlimited lyyicu.- tural and horticultural resources; all awaiting merely the brains and skill and capital to bring them into the full bloom of realization.

 After being confined in the hospital several mon3as Mcwbray was employed by MT. Gould as his valet. He declared that this was under a contract for the rest of his life. at $50 dollars a month, in consideration of the injuries he sus- tained and also his promise not to re- veal the names of the guests of MT. Gould on the yacht.
 He was discharged by MT. Gould on August +, 1897, while on board the yacht Miranda, off St. Petersburg. MT. Gould denied that he had ever made any such contract. and said the dismissal was for intoxication and dis obedience of orders. Mowbray declar- ed that Katharine Clemens. now Mrs. Howard Gould, was responsible for his discharge.

Steps will almost surely be taken at the coming term of congress to admit
 Oklahoma into the un-
 SURE ion as a state. She de-
 THING. s, rves well of this ad-
 ministration because If her splendid performance at the polls at the recent election. She deserves admission, also, because of her marvel ous growth in population and material wealth la is more than likely, too, that New Mexicos claims to admission will be favorably considered. It is possible, then, that, with the proper kind of effort, an omnibus bill might be prepared and pushed through thai. would take in the three remaining terrttories-Oklahoma New Mexico and Arizona. The two former. being repub- lican, will return four senators and two representatives of that political faith. Arizona at the recent cleo tion gave a dcmocratic majority Of 1000 votes, but that result does nct necessarily mean that she is a demo- cratic territory A change of zoo votes would make her republican, and grea.tJr changes than that are made at every election.
 Besides, when the people Of Arizona voted last there seemed to be a possibility of Bryan's election, and his victory was supposed to mean much for silver. Now, Arizona is not a great silver producing territory. Her wealth in gold and ropper far surpass5s anything ever hoped for from silver. She has no great silver mine. But our miTing camps are filled with miners from Colorado, and the glamor of the free silver promises have blinded them 10 reason and jas fice. Now, those promises have been proven ito be fallacies. It has been proven that the price of silver does not and should not depend upon the success of any political party, but that i; is comodity, and it's rise or fall depends solely upon the law 0f supply and de- mand. Twice has the party champion ing the silver cause gcne down to de- feat, and the cause, as Il cause, is deId.
 With the silver phantom lying in in- ocuous desuetude our people win awake, free themselves from pidful hypnotism and vote for the party that keeps It's promises, glorifies the repuD- lie and brings prosperity everywhere.

HOWARD COULD WONT PAY IT.
The Principle Involved in the Appeal il
 the NaIet's Damage Suit

Howard Gould does not intend to abide by the verdict of the jury who decided that his former valet. Frank D. Mowbray, was entitled to g, 900 dam ages for a breach of contract alleged to have been made by the young million aire in the summer of 1893, to employ him for the rest of his fife at a salary of $50 a month and his beard
 The verdict was reached at o'clock on Friday night, and as soon as the re- suit was announced, Rush Taggart, counsel for MT. Gould, announced that, under instructions of his client, he would carry the case to the highest court in the state for the purpose of having a final determination of the matter, and to determine how far de- fenGants who are being sued for dama- ges may be exposed to embarrassment in the revelation of the privacy of their homes.
 As Mir. Gould's counsel says he will adhere to this determination, there will be an adjudication of the court of ap- peals as to the extent to which testi- mony may be introduced in regard to private events in the life of any man in an action of this character Wales F. Severance. counsel for Mowbray, was not at all satisfied with the verdict. which is looked upon as nothing more than a compromise, and has not deter mined what steps shall be taken, if any. in the name of his client, who had hoped for a much larger amount as damages.
 Mcwbray was injured by the sudden explosion of a distress signal rocket on the Yacht HildeGarde, off Larchmont, on the evening of the fourth of July, 1893. Howard Gould had taken the yacht for the summer, from his broth CT. George Gould, who purchased it from the Prince of Wales. The fire works were on board the yacht at the time it was sold by His Royal High ness, and as MT. Gould's guests, Mrs. George Blanchard and Mrs. Grace Wolff, were anxious to take part in the brought up from the captains cabin.
 Among them was a distress signal rocket. the fuse of which was broken off.

THE MILL oF CONGRESS-.
The Ordinary Congressman Comes and Goes. Leaving No Trace Except
 on the Salary Vouchers.

"The average length of a career in congress is four years. At the begin ming of every congress about one-third of the members of the house are new to the business. It is a rare thing for a member to make any soIt of a mark in legislation befora he has been in the house at least two full terms, and those who have forced themselves above the surface before the close of single term can almost be counted on the ffn- gers of ones hand. The ordinary con gressman comes and goes and leaves no trace behind him, e2cer1 on the sai- ary vouchers. The man who stays in the house for more than two terms has a fair chance of welding a little influ- ence. He gets his name into the Con- gressional Record once in a while; he is recognized by the speaker occasional ly; and if he is unusually lucky the newspapers take him up and sometimes give him a headline all to himself. There are one hundred and thirty-four members of the present house who are serving their third term or better. Of these twenty-five, at generous esti- mate, are So well known that their names might carry some meaning out side their own state. The work of a congressman is thanklesS enough. It brings nothing in the way of money, little in the way of reputation, except in rare instances, and a vast amount in the way of drudgery. A man must be in the harn5ss for years generally before he amounts to anything, and by the time he begins to count in legis- lation he has lost his enthusiasm and spirit and becomes a pack-horse. Once in a while, at rare intervals, there is a flash acrcss the dull legislative sky like meteor, and a sudden reputation is made for a new man. That was the way with Bryan when he first came to the house in the fifty-third congress and spIang into instant notoriety with a. speech on the tariff that dag zled everybody. Littlefield, of Maine, made an even more effective stroke last winter With his argument against the unseating of the Mormon, Roberts. These are the most striking examples in recent years of reputations quickly ma ie. Away back in the fiftythird Congrs ss Lafe Pence caught the house in the first week after he took his seat with free silver speech. It is signif- icant that those wlro' thus make dra- m2tic entrance in the house rarely count for much in legislation aft5r- ward. Bryan never had any influence and all the while he stayed in congress he was looked on as a good tall1er and nothing more. Towne frittered him self away after his silver speech, and as for Lafe Pence, who had black type i1 the newspapers for a few days after his maiden effort, it is hard nowadays to find anybody who can remember his name"
