TIE NEW SCHOOL HOUSE.


The taxpayers of the Billings school
district have always been liberal IN
their support Of the public schools
they take a just pride in them, fully
realizing what a benefit they are to the
community, and therefore The Gazette
feels confident that there will be no op-
position at the regular April election to
bonding the district for SIS, 900 to
build a new building. The necessity
Of the new building is fully explained
in an article in the news columns OF
this issue, which we hope every tax
payer will read and consider.
The bonding proposition will strike
the people much more favorably than n
special tax levy, but even If that we're
necessary, they would not hesitate, as
the past has proven, to bear the extra
burden. The policy Of all live and
progressive communities, however, is
to bond for public improvements Of all
kinds, in order that the younger gen.
erations. may bear their just proportion
of the expense, and the young men Of
Billings who. in a few years will take
the place of their fathers in working
for the advancement Of the city, will
not, we are sure, object to the bonds.
They realize, as we'll as anyone else.
that with the rapid growth the city is
making, the public schools are also ex-
banding and that there must be no
ourtailment Of their usefulness. The
young men,, therefore. will join with
the old and middle-aged men, and with
tho good women Of the district, in vot
ing for the new school house.
The affairs Of the district are in Ok
.cellent hands; the present school board
could not be improved upon and, with
out knowing whether the three retiring
mem -Messrs. Spear, Mills and
Moss-will serve or not, The Gazette
advocates re.electing all three of the
gentlemen. They have freely given
their time and energies to the upbuild.
ing of the schools aud at this time,
when extensive improvements are to be
made, they can better aid in carrying
out the policy outlined than new men,

his conduct. He has been loyal to biz
home, faithful to his friends, mag.
unanimous to his adversaries, constant
~ bis devotion to duty. Hs has paid
his tithes Of anise. mint and oummin
he has not omitted the w~eightier mat
tiers Of the law.
Els defects and limitations are reoog
nized, but no one doubts his patriotism,
his sincerity, his determination to do
right, his love or justice. He is safe
and sane; a planet and not 4 meteor.
His opponents respect him, and the
people, regardless Of party, honor and
trust him.

II JOURNALISM.

The Gnzette hereby enters d vigorouI
protest. against the effort Of the Butt,
Miner to make 1t appear that this news
paper is friendly to W. A. CLARK,
Tuesdays Miner reproduced from las
Fridays Gazette a portion Of an edi'
torial. properly credited to this paper,
oriticising Congressman A. j. Campbell
for the methods he has employed III the
CLARK investigation. The Miner, how
ever, without inserting asterisks to le,
its readers know that something was
omitted from The Gazette's editorial,
deliberately left out this sentence:
He has brought almost al much dis.
grace upon the state as Clark himself
and at the last moment, when he was
about to be convicted. he IL liable TO be
acquitted by Campbell overrencbing
himself. and thus both democratic cor
%ruptionists may escnpe punishment.
The omission Of the above sentence
would make it appear, to u person who
does not regularly read The Gazette,
that this newspaper is defending W. A.
Clark for disgrncing Montana by the
wholesale purchase Of Its Legislature,
when, as a matter Of fact. The Gazette
has time aud again denounced bis brib.
cry tactics aud has not hesitated to say
that he should not be allowed to retain
a seat il the United States senate which
everybody in Montana knows that he
bought outright.
1t is the dirtiest kind Of journalism
for the Miner to thus attempt to mis-.
represent The Gazette, and 1t will make
no friends for Cluik By doing SO. This
newspaper has played no favorites in
the Clark-Daly fight and the mass Of
corruption uncovered by the two demo.
cratic factions in Montana. II hus
taken the position that one IL as bad ny
the other; that 1t Is a case Of "dog eat
dog and that the sooner this state Is
rescued from democratic control. the
better will it be for the commonwealth
at large and every honest resident
within it's borders. That IS the logical
position for any honest and Independent
newspaper to take, and The Gazette
does not propose to allow either the
Clark crowd or the Daily gang to repre-.
sent 1t as standing In with either.

Ex-senator j. j. Ingalls, Of Kansas,
who was one Of the calamity howlers
in '96, declaring that there could be no
prosperity without free coinage, has
changed his tune. And it is such a
pleasant aud cheerful tune he is now
singing; one that will be readily recog-
nized by everyone, that W Q herewith
reproduce it in full. Mr.. ingalls, says:
The most extraordinary phenomenon
of President McKinley's administration
is the subsistence Of social discomfort.
Something has scattered plenty over
a smiling land. Employment is abun.
dant and wages rise. Agriculture en-
barasses the farmer with its riches and
burdens the fleets of the world with its
abundance. Commerce thrivcs beyond
precedent. Manufactures multiply and
replenish the earth. From Cape Nome
to Puerto Rico, from Manila to Maine,
FORCES BLAZE, stacks smoke, wheels IL.
volve, spindles hum and electric lights
turn night into day. 1t is an illumi.
mated chapter from the romance Of pros
perity.
Even the per capita, that mysterious
and menacing specter whose shadow
has SO often darkened the feast, has in.
creased from S22.47 when Mckinley
was ~inaueurated to $25.42 ut the close
OF the third year of his administration
the most rapid growth of money in
circulation in our history, and very
largely in gold,
Whether this prodigious change is
due wholly or in part, or not at all,
to the policy of the administration,
is immaterial. 1t has happened, Ii
may be cause and effect, OF ii may be
coincidence but the millions who were
ground between the upper aud neither
millstones Of adversely in that dismal
interval after the collapse Of 1893 know
that it has taken place. They are not
lnqulsllive as to how II came ia pass,
What they desire is its continuance.
As soon AZ the farmer has a bank 40,
count he ceases to be interested in
abstract questions OF finance. The ca
pacity to draw checks makes him
conservative, Tho artisan who owus

Heart disease kills suddenly, but never without warning. The warn- ings may be faint and brief, or may be startling and extend over many years, but they are none the less certain and positive. Too often the victim is deceived by the thought. '.it will pass away" Alas, it never passes away voluntarily. Once in- Stalled, heart disease never gets bet ter of itself. If Dr. Miles Heart Cure is used in the early stages re- covery is absolutely certain in every case where its use is persisted in.
 "For many years l was great suf- ferer from heart disease before 1 finally found relief. l was subject to fa;nting and sinking spells, full ness about the azeart, and was unable to attend to my household duties. \ tried nearly every remedy that was recommended to me and doctored with the leading physicians of this section but obtained no help until l began taking Dr. Miles Heart Cure. It has done me more good than al the medicine ever took"
