TINE WOOLGRoWtRS' HARVEST.

Notwithstanding the unfavorable out
look in the early spring the wool mar
ket has been good and growers Of this
county are generally satisfied with the
prices received for their clips. This is
particularly true of those who sold in
the Great Falls market. Some who sold
in Billings did not realize within two
or three cents Of what they believed
their clips To be worth, knowing them
TO be the equal of clips that commanded
n better figure in the Great Falls mar
ket. There was very little of the wool
from this county consigned, or of the
state for that matter. The wool clip
of Fergus county probably reached
l,550,0 pounds, which, at an average
price of l3 cents, would yield s5s5, 200
in cash, placing the average weight of
the clips at seven pounds. We believe
these figures conservative. However,
it is safe to say over half million dol.
lars were realized by the woolgrowers
of this county, great deal of which
will find circulation in business chan,
nels in the near future. This is exclu,
sivc of sales of stock sheep and mutton
which will be marketed later. 1t il
estimated that these will reach total
Of $500, 900, or more than was realized
from the wool clip, thus making q
grand total of more than n million dol
lars for the woolgrowing industry oi
Fergus county this year. 1t will be seer
the industry is in very prosperou'
condition, which, together with the ex
ccllent range and abundance OF hay
has good promise for the future.

Family Prayers nt the JenkInseu'.

a Harlem woman recently decided
that family prayers were really neces-
sary TO the proper bringing up of her
young son Johnnie. Mr.. Jenkins. nom
inal head Of the family, didn't exactly
see the necessity, but, of course, yield
ed TO his wife. The next morning aft
or breakfast the Jcnkinscs assembled
In the sitting room with feeling Of
suppressed excitement at the novel pro-
cecdngs. After the Scriptural reading
they Enelt beside long sofa, Mr.. Jcn-
kins at one end, Mrs. jenkins at the
other and Johnnie in the middle. Then
Mr. jenkins offered up a prayer inyok-
ing the divine presence.
jenkins prayer was long and fervent.
After It had continued for five minutes
Johnnie got restless. decided il was too
monotonous and interrupted In his thin,
boylsh voice with:
"Yes, bod; come and stay to dlnnerw

with an abrupt "Amenw Johnnie safe

The Penalty of being Idle,

Idleness Is at the bottom Of the
drunkenness, gluttony and sensuallty
which compass the destruction of one
section Of the community at the present
time. 1t is at the bottom Of that par;lc-
ular form Of heartache which Is the
plague Of women-the heartache OF n
purposeless. miserable existence. Such
women often look forward to marriage
to cure them, but when they are mar
ried and settled the old malady recurs,
and In our own day we see them run
ming hlther and thithcr after that elu-
siye something. Others try TO find n
cure in the suffrage and others again in
cigarcttes.-Sarah Grand.

Irving and the Impreca.ion.

Irving was always severely accurate.
Shortly before he put on the Merchant
OF Venice" he inquired OF brother
actor IL he could supply some stage
business" for the part of Shylock.
The actor being, like Shylock, a Jew,
thought he might, and asked Irving
how he meant to do the ''imprecatlon
scene" which occurs upon Shylock dis
covering that Jesslca has fled with
Lorenzo and the jewolry Of her late
mother, Mrs. Shylock.
Irving knclt, held his hands prayer
like and rehearsed the terrible impreca-
tion, 81 would my daughter were dead
at my feet and the Jewels in her ears. I"
Upon the actors saying he was
wrong, Irving rejoined that he had fol.
lowed the stage direction in the book,
and that all the best Shylocks so did II,
as the Keans, Brooke. Fechter and
Phelps.
"Yes," said the actor. "but they were
all Christians. A jew In imprecating
never kncels, but stands upright, pass.
ing his open hand over his face"
Irving adopted the hint.
Soon afterward well known London
solicitor, also jew, who had seen the
new version, told the actor in question
that he had not before been aware that
Irving was zone Of u.s." and he refused
10 believe the contrary.-Lcdger Month.

wild Zebrns.

The zebra when wild Is a ferocious
animal, and an unwary hunter is likely
to suffer from Its teeth and hoofs. The
author of "Kloof and Karroo" says that
a Boer In Cape Colony had once forced
a zebra to the brink of preciplce,
when the desperate creature turned up
on him, attacked him with its teeth and
actually tore one Of his feet from the
leg.
Another author writes of n soldier
who mounted half domesticated re-
bra. The creature, after making the
most furious attempts to get rid Of its
rider, plunged over steep bank into
the river and threw the soldier as 1t
emerged.
While the man lay half stunned upon
the ground the zebra quietly walked up
to him and bit of one of his ears.

Fishing Hooks.

Fishing hooks are as old as Adam.
made Of stone. bone, thorns and any
old thing, not to mention deer horn and
boars' tusks. The bronze hook of the
bronze age was succeeded by the hook
Of iron. The aborigines Of Colombia
used gold hooks, while the ancient peo-
pie OF Peru made theirs Of copper. The
bronze hook Of today Is considered an
expensive luxury. For years the most
important seat Of fishhook manufac-
ture was Limerick, Ireland. but the
once popular Limerick has been SUPER
seded by several styles of American
make that are not only much cheaper,
but are not inferior. As for our fine

InE BIG sIEfL SIRIkE.

A faint hope was entertained that
some sort of an agreement would be
reached in the great steel strike before
the date set for the issuing Of a general
strike order by President Shaffer had
been reached. But il could not be
brought about and on Saturday the
edict went forth which viii cause many
mills to suspend operations, while
thousands of men will be idle for an
indefinite period. While il is said the
fight will be to fnish,' there is al
ways the possibility Of compromise or
settlement through external agencies.
There are other interests TO be consid-
cred outside of those directly concern
ing the trust and the men and it is a
pity that there is not now congression-
al authority for submitting the existing
grievances to arbitration and for plac-
ing all trusts under the control of the
general government. With all Of the
ramifcatious Of the big steel trust il is
not an easy matter 10 get at the exact
merits OF the points at issue in this
strike. 1t is well known, however, that
it Is not a question ofwages or hours of
work but unionsm. Some of the mills
have been operated for years with non
union men while others have been
thoroughly unionized. 1t is claimed
that the Amalgamated association de-
sired To include some non-union mills
in their proposition for settlement in
the first conference and the corporation
refused To include them, and il is held
that in the second conference with the
trust officials they were disposed TO be
less willing than before to accede to the
demands Of the association. II Is held
by some that the representatives of the
Amalgamated association made mis-
take in not accepting the terms first Of
fercd that the trust could not force
men to join the union, nor could they
replace faithful and competent men
with union men out of regard for a
mere sentiment or for the purpose of
obliging the association. II this is the
true situation it would look as though
the Amalgamaied representatives had
made tactical blunder, AS they stood
show to win the men over to union
ism by methods that were justiiiable
and as they had done in the past. Any
thing that partakes of force in accom-
plishing their purpose will lose them
the sympathy of the public.
The great mass of the American peo.
pie have no sympathy forthe trusts but
they will quickly detect the right and
wrong when all facts are presented to
them.
How and when the strike will end no
one can tell. But it sregrettable from
every standpoint. President Shaffer is
acting wisely in counseling temperance
and good order among the men. lie is
aware of the danger that must be met
in all such strikes. IL the men expect
to win the sympathy of the American
people they must refrain from violence.
The moment this is resorted TO they
lose the moral support of the commun-
ity and the country.

1t would be interesting TO inquire
what the resources and wealth of Mon
tana would be today had il not been
for the work of the stock and sheep
growers, who have built up from small
beginnings industries which with our
mineral industries give the largest re-
turns per capita of any state in the
Union. The Record appreciates and is
most heartily in favor of and will work
for irrigation and the filling of the
state with small farmers. However, it
does not believe in attempting TO Grip
pie the great industries Of the state at
present because at some time in the fu-
ture other industries may take their
place.-IIelena Record.
The above states the facts exactly.
1t has been the proud boast of every
citizen of this state, whether at home
or abroad, that Montana is one of the
greatest mineral-producing and stock
raising states in the Union. This has
been sufficient for just pride. Now
comes the proposition to check the
growth of the stock industry for an
indefinite period by making it impossi-
BILE TO acquire land except under the
homestead act The proposition be-
comes more absurd when those familiar
with the facts know that agricultural
lands, those that will raise crops most
years without irrigation, have prac-
tically all been taken up. This having
been done, the idea is now to stand still,
let the arid land lie idle, its grasses
feeding the flames Of prairie fires or
wandering bands of cattle and horses,
until the government sees fit ty some
gigantic undertaking to convert such
lands to unfailing crop-producers by the
means of reservoirs and canals. This
would be all right If the government is
willing to give bond to produce the
water and To act within stated period.
But everybody knows that the govern
mcnt will act slowly and cautiously in
this matter, encountering, as il will,
great opposition in some quarters.
There will be plenty Of red tape TO pull
and vast region clamoring for recog-
milton. Government irrigation is com
ing. 1t will be blessing to lands al
ready taken up and those that may be
reclaimed But it is not the spirit of
the Industrious and frugal American to
sit down and wait for something to
turn up. Nothing should be placed in
the way of Montana's progress in the
industries that have already made her
famous, as well rs the richest state in
the Union on per capita of inhabitants.

P,clAL PAPER OF FERGUS COUNTY.
lhE IERRlRiI IlllMAN.

1t will be n good while before Pitch
fork Tillman hears the last about that
address delivered by him at Marinette,
Wisconsin. II anyone had any doubt
as to his coarse and brutal nature or
that he was the most eminent specimen
of the plug ugly, his latest utteranccs
have dispelled it. And we will say
right here that it is crcditablc TO the
more respectable representatives Of the
Democratic press that his statements
and sentiment are repudiatcd.
His defense of lynchiug and the use
of the shotgun in preventing the negro
from voting. rs well as the denuncia-
tion of Booker T. Washington's efforts
at industrial education for the blacks.
is not only contrary to the common law
and violative of the constitution, but
directly opposed to all the moral forces
generally relied upon for the better
ment of mankind. Tillman's vicious
utterances are in keeping with the ig-
norant sentiment that dominates many
states of the south, but are not
in keeping with the new and cnlight-
ened views that are rapidly taking form
in that region. Possibly a majority
now sustain him in his own state but
it is disappearing. No man can build
for the future on such a foundation.
The negro is there and is guaranteed
certain rights which must be accorded
him. Possibly he was given the ballot
too soon, it may be the ignorant and
vicious should be deprived of it alto
gether, but IL 50 it must be by lawful
methods and upon system that will
apply TO both the ignorant whites and
blacks alike. There are educated,
Christian negroes all over the south
Some are wealthy and many are free
from want; they dress neatly and their
conduct in all the affairs of life are the
equal of their white neighbors. They
maybe few in number but they are there.
1t would be bordering on blasphemy
to say they were not the equal in man
hood to the brutal blackguard Tillman
because they are few shades darker
In color.
Booker T. Washington is engaged in
a great work. The negro cannot be
killed off nor expatriated. lie must be
educated and given useful and helpful
employment. Tillman's methods would
not only keep the black man in dark
ness and ignorance but injure all of the
people of the south. 1t would result in
dragging down instead of building up
Happily, Tillman represents a dying
sentiment. His race will soon be run
and wiser and better men will rise up
to shape the destiny of the south.

FRANCIS MURPHY HALL.
Launched Saturday Night With Best of
Prospects.

An Illuminated box, held aloft, and
the noise of a drum paraded the streets
Saturday night together. The noise of
the said drum called attention to the il
Illuminated soap box, and the illuminated
box directed the street throng to the
opening of the Francis Murphy hall in
the Waverley block On the sides, and
front and rear, this important Informal
ton was conveyed.
The hall was crowded for the occa-
sion and a most interesting meeting
was held. Among the speakers were
Franklin Austin, Senator H. p. Bald
win, Rev. w. S. Westervelt and Rev.
Silas p Perry. Light refreshments
We're served during the evening and
everyone present was made to feel at
home.
Murphy hall is the fore-runner of
others 1t is purposed to establish in the
Islands. Its aim, and the aim of the
system, is to encourage and assist tenn
perance by attracting men away from
the saloons. The idea is to establish
like institutions in all towns of the
islands.
