and steel as if he were purchasing it
directly for his own consumption. The
railroad company charges him an
increased price for transportation; the
manufacturer charges an increased
price for manufacturing. This directly
affects the farmer and small business
man. In the cities the cost of building
is increased. The laboring man and
the salaried man pays larger rents.
In short the protection granted to the
trusts by the present republican adj
ministration affects every person in
the country, except those interested in
the combination, and until one of the
great political parties revises the pres
ent tariff, the trust is bound to grow
and with it will grow the general
expense of living.

EVILS OF OVER.PROTECT

1t has been claimed on behalf of the
trusts that the present increased price
of living is not due to the trust system,
or to the present system of over-protec-
ton, but that it is trades-uniorism
which is the cause of it ali. That is,
the demand of the laboring classes fet
more wages.
The fallacy of this statement is very
apparent when we come to consider the
United States Steel trust, one of the
greatest trusts in the country. Under
the present system of a high protective
tariff the steel trust is protected
against all foreign competition. Prior
to the formation of the trust the prices
on steel and iron were about one.half
of what they are now.
During the last year the corpora
tion's net earnings were about one
hundred millions of dollars. Under
these unusual earnings the people of
the United States were taxed an enor-
nous sum. After all the expenses of
the trust had been paid the STOCKHOLM
ers were paid over twenty-five per cent
on the money they had invested.
1t has been said tn at the protection
of the steel trusts interests did not
affect the common people because the
common people were not buying steel
rails and steel building material.
True, the farmer and the rancho and
small business man is not buying these
articles. But he is as much affected
by this increase in the price of iron

THE LOATHSOMENESS OF MILL.
TARISM.

Chicago Public: The "honor of the
army is again in the balance. Gen
eral Corbin having had his application
for membership in d Washington club
rejected, one of the governors of the
CT ub, military officer, has resigned.
Not because he might in that way re-
sent the excl usion of personal friend
from his club, but because he regarded
the exclusion of an army officer as
reflection upon ''the honor of the
army
Army honor is curious thing. Hard
and strong as steel when disturbed
only by guilt, it is as fragile as glass
when the guilty are to be punished.
Drunkenness, debauchery, corruption,
atrocious cruelty, wanton murder have
characterized the advance Of the army
in its march along the path Of Duty
toward Destiny, but without in the
least affecting its ''honor;' yet the
bare suggestion Of fair investigation
wrings tears of solicitade for s'the

Could there be more pitiable EXAM
pie of the loathsomeness of militarism,
more grewsome burlesque upon army
ideals of ''arnny honor" than the cold
blooded murder this week of a German
artilleryman by German naval
cadet, and the pride of this criminal
boy over his fatal success?
AS witnesses narrate the circum-
stances, his crime is no worse than the
conflicting story of the boastful muir
derer himself. He says that the artil-
leryman. an old schoolmate of his,
meeting him casually, offered his hand
as an equal instead of saluting as an

way murdered him with his sword.

THE TRUSTS AND THE WOOL
GROWER.

On our first page we print very
full account of the Boston wool market
for the last week. While the volume
of business was large it was gained
by concessions in price. This is not
very encouraging to the woolgrower,
but nothing more than can be expected
when the woolgrower has his wool
ready for the market. Nearly every
thing that is manufactured at the pres
ent time is the product of a trust.
WOODEN goods included, and the trust
not only dictates the price of the man.
ufactured goods, but also of the raw
material.
The WOODEN manufacturers trust
controls most of the factories in this
country, and very little wool can be
sold, except to mills under its control,
which gives it great power in fixing
the price of wool.
There appears to be no warrant for
a decline in the price of wool at this
time, as we note the foreign sales
opened with an advance of from five to
seven and one-half per cent. Only
the power of the wool trust to control
prices, or the inability Of the people to
purchase as literally as heretofore,
must be the cause of the decline-which
is it? There certainly is something
radically wrong if the decline is caused
by either reason.
In form of government of the peo-
pie, for the people and by the people,
no combination should have the power
to say to the people what they shall
receive for their product.
The manufacturers trust appears to
be able to pay its stockholders regular
dividends on large amount of watered
stock, while it appears to fear to buy
the raw material of our producers at
any kind of a decent price, fearing that
there will not be sufficient decline in
the price Of the raw material.
Says the American Wool and Cotton
Reporter:
The necessities of life have ad.
vanced so substantially in price that
the people cannot and will not pay
higher prices for clothing than they
did last year.
We notice the weakness in price is
most pronounced on such as Montana
woods. AS they are just beginning to
come onto the market locally, NAV this
not be subterruge of the combination
to keep the prices of our woods down,
to their own gain and advantage?

WHERE ARE WE AT?
With republican Tom Carter at the

republican F. Augustus Heinze at the
wheel for the United Copper company
Ore Purchasing company.
and with Senator w. A. Clark out in
the cold, at loss to know with which
corporation to cast his lot, it would
seem that the democratic party of Mon
tana, surely has victory before it in
the campaign of 1904. Now that we
have gotten both the political heads of
the copper corporations into the re-
publican party, let all good democrats
unite upon some splendid type like
Governor Joe Toole for leader, and over
whelming success is in store for the
Democratic party at the next election.
Had Senator Clark been true to his
friends and to his party; had he
stood for democratic principles instead
of CT awling like snake from one copper
company camp to the other, he might
now be the leader of the democrats of
Montana. But every good democrat in
Mont ana is disguised with him and
the very mention of his name surrounds
them with a stencil.
In our own little town of Forsyth on
October 10th, 1900, Mr.. Clark said in
effect:
While the effect of the great Stand
ard Oil company copper trust is not
yet felt by the people of Montana, it is
because it has not yet secured the grip
on the state that it is seeking; and if it
does succeed at this election l predict
in a very short time the iron heel of OPP
preston would be felt. 1t is the mani
fest intention of this company to control
the state. Can you sit idly by and
allow these things to go on? It is your
duty to nip this great evil in its incip-
iency.'
What must Senator Clark think OF
himself when he sees these words and
takes into consideration his subsequent
action at Bozeman in September 1907
and during the last campaign. Almost
every good democrat in Montana, has
been goldbricked by Clark, and they
want no more of him. If any more con
fidence were placed in him, by the
members of the party of which he
claims to be one, he would probably
join hands with Carter and Heinze
and become republican for change
It is very clear that in Montana tn.
corporations control the republican
party, but it will remain for the demo
Gratis to wrest the state from both the
contending factions, and place it in tn
hands of the people, and for thei
leader, the people should select such ;
man as Governor Toole.

Saturday morning dawned
clear and hot. The day Was an
ideal one for out door sports.
The morning passengers brought
in the competing ball teams from
Huron and Highmore together
with about u hundred rooters.
Owing to the small amount of
advertising done many OF the
farmers did not learn OF our field
day, but q very good crowd
assembled never the less.
Promptly at Il halfpast l o'clock
the crowd began pouring into
the park east OF town and a few
minutes later the iefattraction
tie ball game between Huron
and Highmore was called by
| mpiIe Dwyer. 1t was evident
from the way the two teams
went IN work that they were
there for blood and the crowd
OF seven or eight hundred specta-
tors were not disappointed.
Dickinson and Burns werein the
points for the jim river visitors
-
and Duffy and Johnson did the
same work for the Highmore
aggregation. 1t was truly a
battle OF pitchers and the long
armed Duffy won by a handy
margin. He Is u new man

remarkable regularity and judg-
ment. The other men on the
teams did excellent work too. 4

to Money Centers-His OBJ

ers. Chicago, Toronto, Montreal, Bos-

lions are favorable to the northwest The
eastern banks were found taking care
OF their customers only and taking care
OF them WELL Business as viewed from
the great money centers Is generally In
good shape. Mr.. Decker said:
Il found feeling that business in
general was in good shape, (much better
versal disposition to discontinue spreading
out. And the feeling seemed to be uni
versal that money should be employed
only for legitimate enterprises, but at
very firm rates of interest. I found not
a single bank which would under any
| conditions loan anything except for legit-
| innate business and that to its own GUS
| toners.
1.-THE stock market, Of course, was badly
demoralized and 1t Is doubtful whether
! the end is in sight. But there is no feel

affect general business seriously.
'The indications are for generally
good crop and the northwest will require
conslderaDle money, Dut TINS IS no lndlca-
| ton that there will not be enough money
forthcoming to handle It, and probably
the east will be called on for less money
this year than usual. Eastern money
is not being offered in the west as freely
as usual because it is employed at home
and Canadian money will be employed in
moving the cereal crops in the Canadian
northwest to considerable extent. Coun-
| try banks will furnish and have fur

considerable amount. Chicago will prob
ably furnish considerable. The west ant
middle west will furnish most of the
money to move the crops"
