Gone After the Body.

Undeataksr Bannister received tele-
gram last night from Thompsons, Utah,
from John Currie, the father OF Currie,
the supposed bandit and train robber,
saying to come to Thompsons and pre-
pare the body OF his boy for shipment to
Nebraska.
Undertaken Bannister left on this
mornings west bound train for Thomp-
sons with casket and will prepare the
body for shipment.
In conversation with Und srtaker Ban
nistar the day the father " az in this city
he said that he and his son had together
a small bunch of cattle and about two
hundred head OF horses. He sent two
hundred dollars to him only short time
before the killing and that none Of that
money was found upon his person at the
time Of the killing and he cannot ac-
count for the disappearance Of the
money in that short length Of time.
The old man seemed weighted down
with the trsgic death Of his boy and
said that the mother, when she heard Of
his death and the manner OF the killing,
like any mother was Frustrated with
grief.
The old gentleman bore some resem-
blance to the picture Of his son and had
the high forehead and heavy features OF
the supposed bandit. He was, however,
nicely dressed and we'll appearing, much
like we'll to do farmer.

Some Plain Truths.

II the people of the Grand valley and
OF Grand Junction do not have more re-
gard for their pledged contracts for the
raising of beets. the plant Of the Colora
do Sugar Manufacturing Co. for the
manufature Of sugar will be moved from
this city after the run for this year" so
said Charles N. Cox yesterday, the man.
ager for the company and to emphacise
the Importance Of the matter to the re-
porter Mr.. Cox waved in his hand a let
ter from the president OF the company,
John F. Campion in which that gentle
men virtually said the same thing.
Manager Cox was dead in earnest yes
terday when he was accosted on the
street and asked regarding the prospects
for this years crop. He said that he
felt indignant that, after the meeting
Of the citizens Of Grand Junction and
the Business Mems Beet Sugar associa-
ton at the court house, several months
ago when he was pledged by the meet
ing that those who had signed contracts
would raise their beets and more beside,
that they had gone back on their
pledges.
Yesterday afternoon Mr.. Cox, spoke to
the board OF directors of the Grand Val
ley Irrigation company and said practic-
ally the same thing which he said to the
reporter only more in detail
"This is most serious matter to the
interests OF this valley; if they fail to
care for what industrial enterprises they
have now, how can they expect to obtain
others. 1t would be the greatest blow
this town ever suffered to have that fac
tory moved away from here now, and you
can rest assured that what President
Campion has said will be done. without
any question, il the people do not live up
to their contracts" said Mr.. Cox.
The vehemence with which Mr.. Cox
appealed to the reporter impressed him
that what Mr.. Cox said in relation to the
matter was coming from the fountain
head and was certainly meant for bust
ness.
1t would never do to allow this great
industrial enterprise leave this city and
the public should awake to the danger

In the Clark investigation at Wash
ington. it will be noticed by today's
news, the prosecution has asked to have
stricken from the record all reference to
Hon. J. X. Toole Of Helena. By intro.
duoing testimony u couple Of weeks
ago as to Mr.. Toole's bank account, the
DAILY crowd %endeavored to prove that
the ex-governor was paid for withdraw.
ing from the senatorial race, or for
assisting in Clark's election. Now
they take it all back and admit that
Mr.. Toole was in no way dishonorably
connected with Clark. This ia going
to hurt the Anaconda faction. They
should have known, before dragging
Mr.. Toole into the case that the cir.
cumstanoes fully justified their action,
and their admission at this time that
there was no ground for the suspicion,
leads to the belief that they are willing
to blacken any mans character in the
effort now being made to purify"
Montana politics and for Marcus DAILY
to''get event. with w. A. CLARK.

The British, at last, frankly admit
that the Beers have thrashed them
soundly and that Ladysmith is doomed.
England, however, will not give up the
struggle, and is now talking Of adopt
ing some mode Of compulsory service
for the raising Of a large army. The
war is going to be long drawn out. but
England realizes that she must win it
or fall to the position Of a second or
third-rate power. The little Boer

be possible that they may be able ia

1t is notoriety that he wants, in the

"MENYIoNING" SILVER.

The Anaconda STANDARD is much
elaued because Mr.. Bryan, Oh his pres.
emit eastern tour. is mentioning" sill
YER. Yes, he is mentioning 1t, all
right, but how is he doing it? He says
itBwill be one of the issues Of the
coming campaign, but that 1t will de-
pend upon the people whether silver.
anti expansion or the trusts Is the
paramount" issue. And when Mr..
Bryan mentions silver, he talks Of bi.
metallism instead Of absolute and IN.
dependent free coinage at the "divine''
ratio Of 10 to L.. There is a vast diff.
erence between the two propositions.
The generally accepted meaning of
bimetallism Is the coinage Of gold aud
silver OH a basis, or at a ratio, If you
please, Of the relative value Of the two
metals, which, according to the Ana
conda Standard, should be fixed by the
worlds exchanges. The republican
party Of today is not opposed to this
prinniple Of finance; 1t is practically
international b%imetallism, for which
the ST. Louis platform declared. But,
sist+ -H. honest effort has demonstrated
thu. Ien.arnational agreement as to
1.-THE basis Of coinage cannot BIZ arrived
az, the republican party has necessarily
declared for gold as the standard Of
value. It lad no other choice; in fact
gold has been the standard eve since
1873 and will continue to be until the
leading nations Of the world decide up
On an equitable basis for the coinage Of
both gold and silver.
But here we have Mr.. Bryan in the
position taken by the republican party
