COL. COPELAND WILL BE HERE.
He Was One of the Managers and Chief
Adviser of S. j. Tilden.

Col. L. F. Copeland of Pennsylvania,
who is to deliver a series of addresses
to the people of Montana at Bozeman on
the 22nd, is one of the most interesting
characters connected with American poll
tics. 1t will be remembered that Col.
Copeland was one of the managers and
a chief adviser of Samue J. Tilden in
1876. Since the death of the lamented
Roswell G. Horn. of Michigan, Col. Cope
land is conceded to be among the great
est, if not the most brilliant political
speaker of the country. He is one of the
many old line democrats who cannot
recognize in the Bryan fusion combina-
ton any of the virtues or character of
the democracy of Tilden's day. Believ-

THE INTERNAL REVENUE.
Establishment of Deputyship in Butte
a Great Convenience.

Owing to the establishment in Butte
of a ~deputyship cf the int3nlal revenue
Department, hanks ard brewers are only
Required to carry hundreds of dollars
worth of revenue stamps where they had
to cary thousands of dollars worth
when 1t was necessary to send to Helena
for them.
The deputysilip is known as the first
division cf Montana, and includes Sill
yer Bow, Madison, BeaveIhead and Deer
Lodge counties, and the deputies in
charge are Clinton H. Moore and Charles
D.. French. The work is intricate and
necess.tates the making UP OF weekly
and rnCilthly reports and the collector at
| Helena has expressed his surprise and
qualification at the able m in which
the business has been attended to. The
deputyShip has been a great convenience
to banks and business men of the city.
THE sale of stamps in this district Will
probably aunoun to o 5000 900 an
nually, which does not include the reve-
nue. derived from the two-cent stamps
ON bank checks, which is considerable
Silver Bow county by far yields the great
er part of the revenue of the state, and
the brewers pay the greatest proportion
elf it. Nearly every bank in the district
has the revenue stamp printed on the
check, and all of this work has to go
through the Office at Helena.
The documentary stamps run from a
half cent to $1,000. and ALL of the stamps
of large denominations are registered in
New York. Within the last week two
$500-stamps were used in Helena, and
they signify that two transfers of $500. :
600 took place. Since last June no stamps
as large as these AVE been used in this
country. The depository for the stamps
in this district is the Silver Bow National
bank.

BIDS MUST
Be IN TODAY
ASSUMED THAT A LARGE NUM-
Der HAVE BEEN SUBMITTED
FOR NEW PosTOFFICE
WILL BE OPENED
4 ON NEXT TUESDAY,
First Bids Call for the Excavation OF
Ground and Construction Of
Basement Story.

Contractors who desire to submit bids
for the excavation of the ground M the
construction of the basement story of the
new postoffice building at the corner CT
Main and Copper streets must have them
in the mail so that they will go out on the
s o'clock train tonight.
The bids will be opened at 2 p. M. on
Tuesday, October % by the supervisor of
architecture at the ~treasurer's office in
washington and to reach there by that
time they will have to go out on this
evenings mail. The plans and specifica-
tons may be seen in the postoffice at any
time during the day.
1t is assumed on account of the great
number of contractors who have Exam
ined the pans and specifications that a
large number of bids have been submit
ted, but Of course this cannot be learned
with any degree of certainty. The gov
eminent has made a requirement tina. all
bids be accompanied by a small check as
an evidence that the bid is a BONA !ide
enc. A percentage of the amount named
in the bid is not asked for. The govern
ment reserves the right to reject any
and all bids and if there is any reas n t.
suppose that the competition has not
been compete the government would re-
advertise.
There has undoubtedly been compet;-
ton outside of Butte for the reason that
Postmaster G. w. Irwin has receiy I'd in
quiries from contractors in other parts Of
the state and also from the east. There
is but little question hat the eastern bid
6ers are interested only in the materials.
The presumption is that he advertise
ment for bids for the construction of the
main building will follow the letter OF the
contract for the excavation and the bast-
ment but of that nothing positively is
known. The supervising architect estl-
mates that after the first contract is let
it will require from sixteen months to two
years to complete the building ready for
occupancy but people in the west who
have noticed the progress of government
buildings are inclined to think that it
will take longer.

Tue Germ That Couses It Has to Be

Many a woman spends an hour twice
a week securing her scalp, thinking
scrubbing off the scurf will cure the
dandruff. Two hours a week, at the age
of 40 years, she has spent 266 days of IL
hours each, or two-thirds of a year of her

THERE are few people who talk of
business collapse" in the future.
1t may occur but is not likely to do so
soon in Morgantown. Money lenders
and property owners have great faith
in the future OF Morgantown and
those who understand the situation
here are very well pleased with the
outlook. A little investigation will
show that a comparatively small
amount of the business here is done
on borrowed capital and not only
that part but the great majority of it
is done on very conservative lines.
The majority of our people also have
their homes paid for so that the
records will show a smaller percen-
tage of mortgages on property than
the average community. Our people
are industrious and thrifty, there are
few speculative schemes being pushed,
nearly everything being done more
nearly on a cash basis. The man who
owns his home and the capital he
uses in his business even If small can
laugh at hard times. On the whole
Morgantown has good reason to be
satisfied with herself.

PATRONS of the free rural mail

serving that it requires a two cent

preston, thinking that one cent will
carry letter on the route the sane
as drop letter in town. Attention
is further called to the fact already
known to the majority that money
placed in letter and registered is
insured for the full amount up to ten
dollars. Nothing but paper money
should be placed in letter for the
reason that coin is liable to cut
through and be lost in transit or in
pitching the letters aboutin making
up and delivering. 1t is surprising
what sharp twirls an expert in hand
ling mail can give letter or pack
