Talk On Advertising ) -

One may travel the world and lie will find lp the
universal rule that the merchant who adversrs is the merchant
who does hr business but 70 l successful ii advertising The
person who printers ink il continuously nn
juliciously.
Some merchants place advertisement in paper for
month and then complain that the years business has
been increased any by the expenditures TO be successful
advertiser should neither be alsioous the space
yet soasnodic in the work.
Take it in Red Lodge. for instance. Those who
and liberal advertisers the whose places of
business upoat and the generally lG,tronze The
who won spend amy for advertising is quite likely
make it object for them continue to o business with him
In other words the merchant who keeps all hr gets likely
to get very much.

I5HI.EIGHT-IiOuR DAY.
The Anaconda and Butte and Boston Mines
Take the First independent Step.

The Anaconda Standard Of last Wed
ncsday says:
Il was reported yesterday that the
Anaconda Copper Mining company had
decided to inangurate the eight hour
work day system in the mines at IN early
date regardless OF whether the legislature
would pass an eight hour bill or not. 1t
was not until late last night that the re-
port could be confirmed by the Stand
ard. President William ScalIon of the
Anaconda company was seen and ques=
toned regarding the report, and admit
ted the company had had the matter
under consideration for some time-in
fact had decided upon the eight hour sys-
tenn some time ago-but it was only
within a week that it was determined to
put it into effect in the mines ON the 1st
OF February. From other sources it
was learned that the Butte 4 Boston
company will adopt the eight hour sys-
TEN in its mines at the same time, as
we'll as the Colorado and the Parrot
companies. 1t will be the best news
that the Standard has brought to the
miners of Butte in a long time,
1t could not be learned last night
whether the Boston & Montana com
pany had taken any action on the sub
ject, but it is safe to say that il all the
other companies named adopt the eight
hour system the Boston 4 Montana will
soon be working under the same system.

his call, Lucy vchcmently protested
against being arrested and told the
officer that she would not go with him
under any condition. She changed her
mind finally, however and together
with her sister, accompanied the sheriff
to the Office of Justice Hawthorne where
she was fined Sl.7o. including costs
This made Lucy still more Wratlly and
she asserted her purpose to lay the fine
out in Jail. Sheriff Potter. with his
we'll known chvalry told Lucy that he
would make il Just as pleasant as pos
siblc for her in the cooler and treat her
with all the consideration Of a dis
tinguished guest. There being no alter
native, the sheriff started with his fair
prisoner for the Jail, but before they had
proceeded far Lucy relented, paid her
fine and was allowed to go her way in
peace.

have talked the matter over are heartily
in favor Of the proposition, and il isuuite
likely that the matter will be brought up
for consideration at the next regular
meeting of the Elks lodge. 1t is pro
posed to make the association an ex
clusively Elks society. the idea being to
sell sell stock to the members to the
amount of So 600 and have the entire
sum paid in to start with. .As the lodge
is now constituted it consists of over
fifty members. and it would only require
$500 individually from each member to
incorporate the association with a cap
ital of $1,000.
This is certainly proposition worthy
of consideration. Red Lodge has grown
to such an extent that first class opera
house is one of the needs of the city and
would doubtless prove a paying invest
ment. It is to be hoped that the Elks
lodge will take the matter in hand and
push it to speedy fruition.

Emeline's Emancipation.

Emeline stood at the buttery win
dow, looking vaguely out. but for only
moment. She cotinued moulding
the butter and packing it for market
The day was hot !; she had a persistent
little pain in the back of her neck
which annoyed her her back ached
from STOPPING, and the consciousness
that there were other tasks waiting
loomed over her like dark shadow.
Pm tired out" said she; "that's
what. tired out"
She thought of her childhood, and
saw herself, mite of four or five
years, learning TO knit. This acquir-
ed, she had learned to sew, and ac-
complished the usual tale of patch
work quilts. Then the mems clothing
was all made on the farm, and
she must assist as she grew
older. Outside there were bees and
honey, chickens and eggs, with their
recurring demands, and the milk and
the butter-EmelIne's heart tainted
within her at the remembrance OF the
multifarious pats of butter which had
been passed through her hands.
81 bet I've made bricks of butter
enough to build house," said Eme-
line grimly.
She once gained prize for her
cheese at a cattle show, and after that
she always had to make the cheese.
"Jest for that little half-dollar
priz !"
Emeline married at eighteen, and
her tall sons and bouncing daughters
had not left the farm, but Emeline
worked as hard as ever, since as the
children grew up their wan increased.
Besides, they enviced no such con-
scientious devotion to labor as did
Emeine; true, they worked many
hours, but they likewise rested when
they chose.
Here they've all gone to the county
fair. I'd like to have gone to that fair
myself"
Two or three hired men tramped in
to the kitchen at noon for their dinner:
it was ready, as Usual, hearty and
appetizing. They did not noticeiEme..

them, the youngest, said, little bash

he spoke, and then followed the others.

The Cotton Market.

Cotton continues TO have downward ten
dency, though the decline is small. The
price Of cotton goods do not offer great induce
ments for the planting of a large cotton crop.
Well informed persons, who know as much
about the prospective price Of cotton as we
know about the weather, seem TO think
that elk or seven cents is as high as the far.
mer may expect to realize for the staple next
fall.
But certain 1t is that the farmers this year
have unloaded at big prices and allowed the
spectators 10 realize big loss. The farmers
are on the safe side this time.

McLaurin's Politics.

McLaur1n FOi1t1ck.
The dispatch from Washington to the At
lanta Constitution makes surprising state
ments as TO Hon. John L. McLaurin.
We do not believe the story, wherein II
states that John L. McLaurin HAD left the
Democratic party. BY doing so. he could
have no hope Of gaining anything at Wash
ington, and Mr.. McLaurin has generally been
regarded as man OF at least average politi
cal sagacity.
The history of the recent past would teach
Mr.. McLaurin that no man outside OF his
political party can be u great factor in cur
rent events.
In 1892, as we remember the conditions, Mr..
T1llman OF South Carolina, and Mr.. Watson
views. Mr.. Watson, not being In accord
with the Democratic party, went into a new
organization, and sought political preferment
at the hands Of his new.made friends, and he
is to-day private citizen. Mr.. Tillman took
a different tack and assumed to control the
Democratic party, in which he was success
full, and Mr.. TIllman is United States Senator.
Would Senator McLaurin repeat the blum
der OF Watson, or would he learn lesson
from Tillman's course?
In the stormy times that succeeded the war
numbers of good men In both the Democratic
party and the Republican party thought their
good name and honorable career would war
rant them in changing party afdliatlon,
when they could still be useful.
But no man has yet succeeded outside Of
his own party. II Mr.. McLaurin thinks the
Democratic party is In error, he can correct
1v w q in N tho
II he remains in the party, as we believe he
will, his opportunity for usefulness, or evil, as
the citizen may look upon 1T, will be great.
AS to whether he is right on all his votes we
are not able 10 say. but with the lig hts before
US, we are inclined to the belief that he is
right.
lst. In voting for the ratification Of the
Paris treaty OF peace.
I'd. In voting for the increase OF the army,
that the Government might en- force the laws
in the Philippine Islands.
AS TO the ship subsidy: We are not suffi-
ciently informed as to the merits of the ques-
tion to say what is right, but we are inclined
TO the opinion that 1t Is right, and certainly
as necessary as the expenditure OF the twenty
millions Of bounty which the Democrats paid
annually to the sugar planters Of Louisiana.
We believe ship.subsidy is as honest as the
subsidizing of the railroads.
We believe In the building OF the canal
And we believe that the combined efforts Of
the railroad trusts and dissenting Democrats
cannot always prevent progress in this line.
We had thought that McLaurin had at
least an even chance Of reelection to the Sem
ate but he cannot be reelected outside the
Democratic party. Thousands OF Democrats
in this country are for progress, prosperity
and expansion. And the Democratic csndi-
date on that kind OF platform will have
strong support.
We cannot believe that McLaurin has turn
ed his back on the Democratic party, and
committed an act which would give his
enemies more pleasure than anything else
he could do. We shall walt for further de-
velopments.
