tune as corporation attorney. This
man Fairbanks would make an ideal
Republican president. Should there
be a vacancy from any cause, Morgan,
Jim Hill, Rockefeller and the rest
would have nothing to fear from Fair
banks, and as president of the senate
he could WELD power for evil.
The producers of the great west,
who feed the nations, want lower
priced manufactured goods of all
kinds, to correspond with prices that
western products are sold for. Even
great portion Of western repnbli-
cans are crying for tariff session, but
the ''stand-patters" are in the saddle,
and now the stump orators will en-
deavor to stifle the cry of tariff re-
duction. The people at large; the
bone and sinew of honest industry
can look to the Republican party in
vain for relief. No other party could
do worse, and yet there is a hope and
that hope lies in Republican defeat.
In 1898 the Republicans waged a
war with Spain, a ga-lo-ri-ous war,
and captured the Philippine islands.
Imperialism ran riot; the &. o. p.
wanted some foreign colonies and
Dewey did the shooting. To-day this
same party, or the great Republican
protective administration, wants to
sell the unwashed Fillipinos to Japan,
Cuba and Porto Rico; want reciproci-
ty with their guardian, while Canada
SHES at reciprocity like wild bronco
at a lasso. This is the auspicious
year for Democrats to organize and
work for victory. Get together, work
! Together and see that Montana MAKES
a victorious showing in November.

AS the hour for the Democratic
convention draws near it looks more
and more like Judge Parker. All the
old timers now on the ground concede
his nomination. However William
Jennings Bryan may stampede the
convention and upset all pre-arranged
plans and should he fail in such an
effort that will be the grand finale of
the "Boy Orator of the Platte" The
New York delegation, If defeated,
may make a final rally to nominate
Governor McClelland. For second
choice Ex-senator Geo. Turner, of
Washington, seems to be the leading
candidate, William Hearst seems to
be completely shelved, for the present
at least.
When all the sources of informa-
tion, properly reduced to conserva-
tive estimate be considered, it looks
as If Parker would become the Demo-
cratic standard bearer. That he will
be bitterly opposed by Mr.. Bryan
who has prepared himself for the
greatest oratorical effort of his life, is
now most thoroughly understood, and
nobody can foretell the result of such
an effort. While it may be true that
Tammany is not only opposed to
Parker, but is most decidedly in favor
of McClelland, who seems to have no
other following, lie is very apt to be
nominated.

10 his cTeuIU.
The most interesting event was the
running high Jump. At the start
there were five contestants, but all
fell by the wayside except Prof. Troy
and Frank Fecker, who put up
pretty contest. Both had tied at five
feet and two inches in three trials.
The fourth leap Troy cleared the tape
with few inches to spare and Fecker
failed to make good, receiving second
money.
The standing high jump was won
by Fecker, who cleared three feet
four inches. Troy and Hanks split
second money ON tie. Five entered.
The fat mans race was feature
that was entered into with enthus-
iasm. Five heavy weights entered
and galloped down the line like
youngsters. Frank Hopkins got off
trifle ahead of the bunch and held his
position to the finish, with Thos.
Lamey close second.
AS the hour was late, the field pro-
gram was concluded with the free-for-
all 100 yard dash. There were five en-
tries. Frank Fecker won first money
and Ben Ryan second. Time, log
seconds.
The bowery dance was alive all the
time. The Citizens Band of Havre
furnished the music and all joined
hands in dance led by the gaily be-
decked damsels of the west.

Uncle Sam a Liberal Employer.

of the national government should
work half an hour 4 day longer,
henceforth, wilt be approved by all
sensible pe sons not directly interest

in keeping their tasks as easy as pos

the army of clerks in the departments
at Washington will be expected to
give seven hours a day for the liberal
pay which they receive. Surely that
is not excessive labor for any one
doing routine work, usually under
very favorable, II not lax, conditions.
The questions of economy which

Absurd LIQUOR BIuff1n0.

\ spokesman of the liquor interests
of Ohio has made himself needlessly
ridiculous by public assertions that
the restrictive legislation of the last
few years, in this Stase, has increas
ed the use of Intoxicating beverages
aud caused more drunkenness. If
that statement stood alone 1t might
possibly be set down to stupidity, but
circumstances stamp Ii as very
clumsy misre presentation. For proof,
witness the same liquor agents de.
claration that the local option Ia ws
of all States are to be tested by the
brewers. distillers and salConkeepers,
in the Supreme Court of the United
States. Anybody ought to see the
absurdity of these two assertions, ta-
ken together. If the legislation which
has been adopted, despite the utmost
opposition of the liquor interests, to
lessen the evils of intemperance, had
produced the opposite effect from
that intended the men who live by
the sale of intoxicants would be well
content to let the laws stand. Their
|eagerness to catch at any poor little
chances of annulling acts in rest
raint of the liquor business is all the
evidence which any sane man needs
that they have found these laws eff
fective. TO a troublesome and alarm
ing degree,
~ for the chances of undolng
what has been accomplished in Ohio,
it is not worth considering. Any new
liquor legislation in this State will
be in the direction of increased
restraint of the traffic in intoxicants.

THE NEW YORK SUN
COnQrdtulates the Women Upon
Their Progress.

The New York Sun is extending its
congratulations to the Club Women,
says:
The Club Woman has good reason
for exu tation over the progress made
by women in every direction during
the last half century. This move
ment began when a few womer,
among whom the late Elizabeth Cady
stanton was most prominent, held
the first Woman's Rights convention
at Seneca Falls, n. Y, in July, lsIs.
Ii was an humble beginning, amid
general derision, in which women
themselves participated almost unan-
imously. yet since then legislation
concerning women and their person
al anu property rights has undergone
a complete revolution. and their at
titude toward social and Industrial
life has changed radically. The few
women on the stage at the Seneca
Falls convention we're ridiculed and
lampooed as unsexed monsters. Now
women are frequent speakers at pub
ll.c meetings. They have entered in.
to every learned profession and into
almost every Industry, even into
> some from which they would seem to
