MONEY AND WAGES.

The Helena Independent takes sarcas-:
tic exception to a statement OF the Inter
Mountain that wages are high and inter-,
est rates low and says the assertion Is as
senseless as would be the assertion thai
a body of water is higher on n side
than on the other. The Helena paper Is
not we'll informed or it would know that
is a drug on the market. Russell
Sage himself says so. Every financial
review says so. Every banker says so.
Rates for demand loans ruled at IN cents
on the New York Stock Exchange on the
9th inst. Two per cent government bonds
command a premium. The British war
loan was fioated at 80 with ridicllous
ease within the past few days in New
York. Money was never SO plentiful and
interest was never SO low before. That
is why the silver argument has lost its
force-it was unanswerable when money
was scarce. AS to the matter Of wages
being higher thar they were four years
ago, surely the Independent has no de-
NAL to make of that universally con-
ceeded fact. &sT @

This is no time for republicans to
quarrel unless they wish to hand the state
over to the democracy. Where free re-
publicans citizens gather there will al
ways be differences of opinion, but they

motion Of republican success. The ma

70 me 7OiLERS.

If there ever was a time when the per-
manent interests Of labor required con-
sentative and intelligent leadership in this
state. now is that time.
AS a result of such leadership in the
past, coupled with the determination to
keep out of politics and attend strictly to
their own affairs, wages in Montana are
better than in any other mining state in
the Union. -
In Utah mineDs are working for $3.50 per
day, and in Colorado s. . day is the excep-
ton and not the rule.
In Montana alone are wages uniform
and reasonable. They can be kept SO and
the field of labor can be enlarged and more
men employed by q conservative course on
the part of the labor leaders. Devotion to
law and order, the RELOCATION of politics
to invest and a guarantee Of it's safety,
the refusal Of workingmen to be drawn
into personal disputes-that is the policy
which means good wages, steady work and
political independence for the men who
toll. Organized labor must safeguard the
this the toilers will find it to their advan-
tage to maintain friendly relations with
capital to give it confidence and activity.
The Inter Mountain extends cordial
greeting to the members OF the labor con
ventfon and hopes their deliberations win
be harmonious Inc beneficial, not only tc
the members themselves but all the vast
army Of toilers they represent. Conserve.
tism should be their w%atchword and sue,
