congregational Pastors Meet.

The Eastern Washington Associ-
alton of Congregational Ministers
and Churches convened in Pullman
last Tuesday afterpoom The meet
ings were held il ffEa <Congrega-
tional church. About seventy five
delegates were in attendance, and
the meetings lasted till Thursday
night. Throughout the occasion
was most helpful and inspiring
one, The object of the gathering
was partly for the transaction of
business, and partly for the discus
sion of various practical problems
Nm church work. The reports from
the various churches were most en-
qoutSging, advance being shown in
every line. The condition of the
various academies and Of Whitman
College was reported better than
before Whitman has now 24O stu
dents.
Dr. Puddefoot, of New York, gave
a most trenchant and inspiring ad-
dress on Tuesday evening to an
audience which filled the house to
overlooking. Rev. \. Rice, of Walla
Walla, on Wednesday preached the
associational sermon, his subject
being, The Christian Minister as a
Consulting Physician of Souls"
On Thursday Rev. VIM. Davies
gave an address on The Message
of the World to the Church," and
an answering address on The Mes
sage Of the Church to the World ,"
was given by DR.. G. II. Wallace, Of
Spokane. Various other subjects
were discussed, and much import
ant business was transacted. Rev.
w. &. Fowler, of Genesee, was elect
ed moderator, and Rev. e. Ovens.
of SpringdaIe, was appointed scribe.
The visitors were entertained by
the members Of the Congregational
church, and great satisfaction was
expressed on the part of all con
cerned at the success of the con
vention. About forty churches
were represented, either by pastor
or delegates. The next meeting
will probably be held at MedicaI
Lake.

several hundred Americans have prob
ably been murdered in China and an

things, a local contemporary speaks of the
expedition as a result of our i~mperialis-
tic policy and says harsh things of the
administration, while ~applauding Egan
as a patriot. Democratic consistency is
a minus quantity.
The reason of Egan's political flop is
plain. The Bryan party demands Amer
lean interference in South Africa, while
the republican party declined to make
such a demand. That's what's the mat
ter with Egan. He wants to twist, or
have somebody else twist, the British
lions tail. He hates England more than
he loves the United States.

turned when the democracy relegated
the white metal to the background. The
convention calling itself silver republic
can that met last week at Kansas City
and threw some fits about imperialism
was simply a democratic convention.
The platform proves 1t. Senator Dubois
himself admits that there is no difference
between the two Kansas City declara-
tions of principles. The silver republic
cans of the Rocky mountain states have
wholly disappeared with the exception
of the excellent Colonel Chisholm and
his hysterical young friend of Bozeman.

SIGNS or PROSPERITY.

Our wheat crop in 1898 was larger than
of any other nation-23 per cent. of
the worlds crop.
Our corn crop for the same year was
ten times larger than that of n other
nation-73 per cent. of the worlds crop.
Our export of provisions was three
times greater than that of any other ma

Our cotton crop was five times greater

Our coal production last year exceeded

THAT NEW PAPER,

In a recent editorial the Anaconda
Standard intimated that the Inter Noun,
tain did not know what was going i,on in
republican newspaper circles n gave
out the information that Butte was to
have another republican evening paper
besides the Inter Mountain, the sugges-
ton being that the latter is not
satisfactory to Butte republicans.
The Standard also suggests that
there is something mysterious DOT
the starting of the proposed news
paper. We assure our esteemed conten-
porary that it is mistaken in this. There
is no mystery about it whatever, nor
about the influences or the parties who
are endeavoring to bring it about. How
ever. we are aware that 40 information
we might volunteer on this subject would
be news to the Standard, as the same in
luences which have mainly furnished
that paper subscribers and filled up it's
advertising columns are those which are
behind the agitation for another evening
| paper for Butte, and for the matter Of
that, if the proposed paper is started it
/ might just as we'll be issued from the
Standards presses and thus save ex-
pense, in addition to the wear and tear
on the conscience Of the dummies who
will be put in charge to do the lying
about who owns it.
The talk about another evening paper
for Butte has been going on for some
time, not among republicans, however,
but among democrats. The Inter Noun
tain has not been left in the dark upon
the subject-in fact it has been inter-
viewed more than once n is therefore
in a position to know whereof it speaks.
But the Standard knows quite as well
as we do that it is not another republican
paper that is desired-it is something be-
yond and quite apart from that. indeed
If that were all, the large and constantly
increasing subscription list of his paper
will testify that republicans generally
throughout Montana are very well
pleased with the Inter Mountain.

THE INCOME TAX.

-Four years ago the income tax plank
was prominent in the democratic plat
form. The income tax was declared to
be the only effective means of reaching
the pockets of rich men and making
them bear their just proportion of the
expenses of government. There is no
doubt that a good many wealthy men,
and most of the great corporations dodge
the bulk of the taxes they should pay

uries are robbed annually of hundreds
of thousands of dollars by systematic
evasion. In some cases the responsible
officials are helpless to collect what Is
due and in some they wink at the fraud.
aking their "a in cash or in political
preferment. If Montana hall e have
a legislature with ourag and honesty
enough to perform it's duty it will enact
some laws respecting taxation which
tax dodgers will find it expensive to yio-
late. Taxation is one of the big prob
lens before the country now. Labo
pays too much and capital too little. The

taxes which the corporations dodre the
poor have to pay. The man with a house
and lot is made to settle. but the one

democrats four years ago had, they
claimed. a remedy for it. h remedy
Is still constitutional according to Mr..
Bryan. Yet the democratic platform
avoids all reference to it. h words
'income tax" do not appear In that
precious document. Some democrats
say the income tax plank was left out
by mistake.

Standard please explain the oversight

THE TREATY OF PEACE.

Nothing could be baser and meaner
than the democratic effort to fix upon
the republican administration response
bility for the expense and loss of life
which have resulted from the Spanish
war. William Mckinley, more than any
other citizen of this republic, sought to
avert that war. It might never ave been
waged had his advice been followd. He
delayed hostilities until the last moment
consistent with national n For his
conservatism he was abused ~ the DEM
ocrartic party in congress and by the
democratic press. That party and that
press contributed more than all other
agencies to the beginning of the war.
1t was conducted to a successful conclu-
sion by the republican party and at less
expense and with less loss of life than
any other war of modern times between
powerful nations. Peace was declared in
a treaty through whose provisions Porto
session of the American government.
| William Jennings Bryan recommended
that the treaty be approved. He urged
his supporters in THE senate to vote for
it. A tribe of marauders in Luzon, how
ever, led by a wretch who advised the
murder of every white resident of Manila
and whose soldiers are no better than
the Boxers of China, disputed the au-
thority of the United States. An army
was sent there to restore order and es-
tablish American authority under the
treaty which h democratic candidate
for the presidency had fully approved;
yet because THE Tagals have made more
trouble than was expected, owing in part
to democratic encouragement, the party
of Mr.. Bryan is howMng '~'militarism'
and charging pon Mr.. Mckinley tina
he is responsible for every drop of blood
shed in Luzon.
Could anything be more contemplate
than that? Is it not shameful that In
their quest for Office any citizen of this
republic will descend ito that sort of
work! Is a newspaper Cnat Will support
such a policy worthy OF public patron
age? Surely the imperialism" and
'tmilita rism" which the democracy
charges against the republican party are
all moonshine, insulting to the intelli-
gence OF the average citizen. There Is
nothing quite so mean and dishonest as a
democratic newspaper in a political cam
paign.

WHAT or THE TARIFF

It will strike the people of Montana as
passing strange that the democratic
party, which once made a presidential
campaign on the single issue of a tariff
for revenue, which was another name for
free trade, %studiously avoided the sub
ject this year.. Particularly will the wool
growers, cattle ~raisers. lead miners, coal
miners and barley producers Of Montana
marvel at the action of their old enemy,
the democracy in evading the tariff is
sue.
But let them not be deceived. Let
them not ppo that the democratic
party has abandoned its pet hobby. Let
them not imagine that the hosts of
Bryan do not regard protection as a
crime and free trad as a blessing, the
latter rather effectually disguised, it is
true, out still a blessing. Free wool, free
lead, free COAL, free barley and free
hides are just as ardently desired by the
democratic party now as ever in it's his
tory. A democratic congress and presi-
lent would not be in business together
twenty-four hour before Champ Clark
or Sulzer or Richardson or Lentz would
be on the f1oor with a bill to repeal the
Dingley law and substitute a revenue
tariff measure. The fact that the Kan
sas City convention lacked the courage
to adopt a free trade plank in view OF
existing prosperity under protection
only proves that in the opinion Of Bryan
such a plank was deemed ~inexpedient at
present. The convention did not disavow
free trade nor has the democratic press
disavowed 1T.
What has the Butte Miner to say OF
the subject?, It is the authorized mouth
piece of democracy in this state. What
therefore, is its view of the present atti.
tude of the democracy on the subject o.
revenue tariff, and why was the subject
overlooked at Kansas City?

then to rail at the men who conducted It

An Important Enterprise.

Ground was recently broken near Can
ton, Baltimore, for the erection of a four
mill by Mr.. Simon Edlavitch, a we'll known
merchant of Bladensburg, this county. 1t

stone foundation, and two story boiler
and engine room. The capacity Of the
mill will be 700 bushels of corn and rye
meal per day. 1t viii! be completed by
October 1st, after which time it is contem-
plated to have large warehouse near the
