EVILS OF WHICH WE KNOW.


At this time, when the animus of
both contestants seems to have
brought forth Kilkenny ending, the
see feels protected in making few
remarks upon the moral environment
of Kalispell, with, however, only a
few suggestions. Morality cannot be
forced, immortality can. A crusade
against those institutions which this
and every other live western town
maintains, instead of elevating, must
necessarily reduce them to a point
where their very existence would be
a menace and terror to all our peo-
pie. Just now they are orderly, es.
pecially the theatres, and offer re-
treat for hundreds who otherwise
might prowl about the streets, troub-
ling and annoying passers by, and a
burden even unto themselves. The
public sentiment of Kalispell does not
call for the abandonment of any of
the poor mans resorts" in this city.
So soon as public sentiment reaches
that pitch the variety theatres, sa-
looms and gambling must cease to ex-
list for lack of patronage. It is with.
in the province of a newspaper to
publish news, to conserve public NOR
ais. to transcribe public opinion. Put
to vote today, in Kalispell, we ven
ture to assert that not 20 per cent of
the actual business men. the men upon
whom the city depends. and who have
placed their treasure and confidence
in the city. would vote to abandon the
saloons and theatres, dispense with
gambling and turn the city from a
cheerful, booming place into a grave
yard, misgoverned by blue laws from
the statutes of Salem town.

The women who furnished the raw
material for Mrs. BODIES table were
not disreputable characters who had
staggered in from the STREETS. The
names of the places at which the OBJ
servations were made are sufficient to
indicate that the guzzlers were what
the world calls ladies. More than
that. these same women constitute, or
help to constitute, that which is known
as the highest social circle.
At all the fashionable restaurants in
New York the larger part of the re-
ceipts are said to be derived from the
sales of wines. whisky and other alco-
holic drinks. Even popular candy
stores of the metropolis serve cham
payne, cocktails and high-balls. Res
taurants in the shopping districts that
reach out especially for the patronage
of the women who trade in the dry
goods stores. and where men unac-
companied by ladies' are seldom seen,
serve drinks to at least IS per cent of
their customers. This is a descrip-
ton of the scene witnessed by Mrs.
Boole at the Waldorf-Astoria:
There were 26 tables in the first
room. seating two. four. six or eight
persons. In the course of an hour the
guests at most of these tables had
changed once.

What we put into the postoffice We

adage. and the same might be said
OF the public records. Admiral Samp

self at loss to account for the publ

in Gunner MOrgan's case, which has
created such a stir. However. who
ever is responsible for the publication
of the letter is entitled to the thanks
of the public. 1t was an expose of
the snobbish naval aristocracy which,
it is to be hoped, will have a salutary
effect.

MANIPULATION OF SILVER.

If reports received are true the
price of silver will soon advance. The
Guggenheims and the American
Smelter & Refining company have
been merged, it is said, for the pur-
pose of forcing the price of silver up
wards. The smelters of the Ameri-
can company and those owned by the
Guggenheims will control between II
and 80 per cent of the silver output of
the world.
The following statement has been
made public as coming from Mr.. ST.
mon Guggenheim. 1t throws side
light on the manipulation of the white
metal:
To-day silver is scientifically and Sc.
cretly bought by four brokers in Lon
don who stand by each other and the
buyer. The seller he sells his product
from day to day and is at the mercy
of the brokers.
Some few years ago Russia bought
90, 100000 ounces of silver in one, year
and it was not known by any of the
sellers that that country was quietly
absorbing the product Last year
India bought 6O,OOO,OOO ounces and
silver was not raised in price. The
reason for this condition of affairs lies
in the conflict of interests that have
existed heretofore.

asd we propose to do the same with
silver. In the course of time we hope
to handle silver as intelligently as We
have Jointly treated lead"

SHOULD CERTAINLY SHUT UP.

Though am personally inclined to
think that there will be no contest"
is the way Senator E. ]. Anderson of
Meagher county concludes a malicious
attack upon the legality of the cleo
ton to the United States senate of
Paris Gibson. The interview with him
appears in Butte paper and among
other things he recites that the clerk
of the joint assembly admitted to a
former state official that the motion
to adjourn was carried by three votes,
just previous to the nomination of
Paris Gibson by H. l.. Frank. Both
these statements are ludicrous in the
extreme, unworthy of sober analysis.
Which clerk gave the news and what
right had Mr.. H. l.. Frank to nominate
anyone. or the presiding officer to
recognize any motion made by Mr..
Frank, who was not a member of the
legislature. Senator Anderson may
have kick coming on the result of
each and every ballot. legal or illegal,
but he certainly did vote every time
for Hon. Thos H. Carter. For once
Montana can point to legislature
which succeeded in electing man

Higgins very appropriately suggested
many times during that eventful
night. 1t is doubtful if Montana, as

NOTES ON PLUMS.

The conclusion drawn by the Kan
sas experimental station from their
observations on the Japanese plum is
that they rank with the peach in
hardness They head the list for
table and market qualities. Their
habit of early blooming makes the
crop uncertain. Burbank is, per-
haps. harder than Abundance, and
they are nearly equal in quality. Ogon
is harder than either. but not nearly
so good in quality of fruit.
OF European plums, Comunia, Early
Red, and one called 10 Orel are at the
head of the class, but all European
varieties have been uncertain bearers.
The fruit is Of good quality for use
fresh and for canning.
The most promising varieties for
general planting are those which have
been developed from our wild fruits.
All varieties of the species Ameri-
cana have proved hardy. While they
retain in varying degree the astring-
ency of the wild plum, most of the
varieties produce desirable fruit for
canning, marmalade and jelly. Quaker,
Wolf, Weaver and Wyant have the
best record for regular bearing and
general good qualities.
The varieties of the species angus
tlfolia, commonly called Chickasaw
plum, have been somewhat injured by
extreme cold. Robinson has proved
most nearly hardy, and regular and
heavy bearer, producing fruit of good
quality.
Most of the class known as hortu-
lana have proved fairly hardy. Golden
beauty and Moreman have been the
heaviest and most regular bearers.
Moreman is rather small, red plum.

DEADLOCK IN PEKIN
PROSPECT OF AGREEMENT AMONG
REPRESENTATIVES, OF POWERS
FAR FROM BRIGHT
TWO NATIONS CAN'T AGREE
Great Britain and Russia Are at
Outs Over the Settlement. and
Neither Government Will
Give Ia.

PEKIN, July 16-The ministers Of the
powers now freely admit that the pros
pect for conclusion of negotiations is
growing darker. The situation is most
serious, as the deadlock has continued
for more than a month. The meeting
arranged for today was postponed be-
cause it was apparent that the proceed
ings would be fruitless. 1t was at the
meeting Of July II that the ministers
reached something in the nature of an
agreement as to indemnity. But almost
Immediately a radical difference devel-
oped between Great Britain and Russia
as to the details of the plan Of pay
ment. All the ministers were In accord
with the scheme early in June, subject
to the approval of their governments,
but Great Britain disapproved the ar
rangement on the ground that it did not
adequately protect her commercial in
terests.
The neutral ministers assert that ell
ther Great Britain or Russia must make
material changes before an agreement
is possible. Meanwhile the ministers
of the powers are working upon COM
paratively unimportant details, such as
improvements In navigation. but If the
financial question was settled the nego-
tiations could be closed in a day. Ii
Hung Chang keeps sending strenuous re-
quests to the ministers of the powers to
present complete plan. He represents
that China is willing to accept any rea-
sonalble terms and IS chiefly anxious to
know definitely what the powers require
so that she may begin compliance with
the terms.
The ministers regard newspaper accu-
sations of procrastination on their part
as exceedingly unjust. The governments
and not the ministers are responsible, the
ministers say, for the deadlock.
