HELENA'S HOPE.

Like the boy who was trying to effect
the capture of a coon, in the knowledge
that his family was out of meat, and the
preacher was coming to dinner, Helena
has awakened to the realization that
something must be done.
Some years ago, when the capitol city
was in a much better financial condition
to undertake improvements, enter
prising citizens proposed the plan
of connecting the Madison river
with that place, not only to secure
an excellent and permanent water sup
ply for municipal purposes, but to irri-
gate the large tract Of agricultural land
lying at It's doors.
Had the plan been allowed to mature.
and a prosperous agricultural patronage
built up for the city. Helena would have
escaped its subsequent decline.
But a villainous plan of robbery. known
as the Missouri river pumping scheme.
was then in contemplation and had suffi-
Gent influence to kill the Madison river
enterprise.
Fortunately for that city. however. its
definite purpose to control its own water
system. has again revived the Madison

WHIcH IS THE STRONGER 2

No doubt the relative political strength
of William Jennings Bryan and George
Dewey will be fully discussed before the
democratic party selects it's standard
bearer at Kansas City. 1t is a question
to which the democracy will address it.
self with no little interest, for 1t is an
issue which must be i~ntelligently met by
the friends of each candidate. The Bry-
an men have educated themselves into
the belief that the nomination belongs to
their favorite, but they will be compelled
to acknowledge Dewey's right of entry
into the race, with all that may imply
before the work of the national conven-
ton shall have ended. +
Dewey's public declaration that he is
a candidate for the presidency has not
been made without assurances of support
from sources heretofore supposed to be
in line for Bryan. Just how far the
has gone. the Bryan men are at present
unable to learn. Whether Dewey's can
didacy amounts to much or little, the
element of uncertainty in it will lead the
Bryan men to supplment their confidence
with more strenuous claims as to the
availability of their hero.
They will show that Bryan alone can
unite the democrats and populists under
friends may be- able to show that the ad-
miral is the only candidate who can unite
both wings of the democracy, as Cleve-
land did in 1892. If Bryan fathered the
so-called issue Of "anti-imperialism,''
does n Dewey represent the expansion
element In the democratic party, and
would not his naval record draw more
votes from the republican party than
Bryan's talk about militarism? Number
less comparison between the rival candi-
dates for the doubtful honors of the
Kansas City convention will be made, and
it Is perhaps an open question as to who
will profit most thereby.
AS the memorable press all over the
country. from Massachusetts to Mon
tana, have declared their opposition to the
granting of political awards for valor in
war-whenever a republican soldier has
aspired to office-they> will not attempt,
Of course. to advance the interests of
Dewey on account of his achievements in
the Philippines. The. admiral must
"size-up" with Bryan without over-work-
ing the hero department of his campaign.
The Bryan men will make no attempt to
use the military record of that gentle
as IN argument for his nomination,
and they will insist that the Dewey men
be equally abstemious in their political
habits.
Bryan is looked upon by his friends as
an orator, while Dewey is regarded
by his friends as an oracle. The
saying that speech is silver ana
silence is golden" indicates the
condition of the two men, in more
ways than one. The merry war is now
