THE sMooT CASE,
Republican Leader. CARVING On,
Bargain With Mormon Church.

Republican Leaders Carryine Ont
Bargain With Mormon Church.
The Republican leaders in the senate
have turned the Smoot case into a
roaring farce. OF course, for political
reasons; they never intended to act on
the matter until after election and so
postponed the hearings from time to
time that there might be an excuse
for nonaction before the adjournment
Of congress. The Smoot case is a two
edged sword and difficult to handle
without injury to the Republican party.
10 declare that Senator Smoot has not
committed any crime or that his al
legiance to the Mormon church is not
paramount to his oath of allegiance to
the United States would be to antag-
onizc a vast number of people Who
have been petitioning the senate to de-
clare his seat vacant. On tie ether
hand the Mormon church is all power
full in some states and holds tEc bal
ance Of power in others. ;.i ei which
states are necessary for L." i,ciM:;iic-
ans at the coming clev,:on hat a
deal with the Mormon leaders was en-
tered into by the nlanag gers of Tie last
Republican campaign and that the
Mormons delivered the goods is p9et-
ty conclusNely proved by the presence
Of Smoot in the senate. Tie good peo-
pie who believe that Smoot, if not Il
polygamist, secretly favors po!ygamy.
and being one of the twelve apostles is
obliged to hold the interests of Nor
monism before all else should turn
their attention to the election of Re
publican senators who pay no atten-
several of these senators expire next
March and the state legislatures elect
ed this fall will select their successors.
Senator Burrows of Michigan, chair
man Of the committee which is investi-
eating the Smoot case, is one of the
statesmen who are anxious for re-elec-
ton, and as he is mostly responsible
for the delay is a shining mark to fire
at. The other Republican senators who
are also asking for reelection this
fall are: Aldrich, Rhode Island; Bail,
Delaware; Clapp, Minnesota; Clark,
Wyoming; Depew, New York: Foster.
Washington; Hale, Maine; Kean, New
Jersey; Kearns, Utah; Lodge, Mas
sachusetts; McCumber, North Dakota;
Proctor, Vermont; Quarles, Wisconsin,:
Scott, West Virginia. Nearly all of
these favor the retention of Smoot and
therefore have favored postponing ac-
ton until after election.
1t cannot be said that there is more
important business before congress
and no time to consider the Smoot
case, for only one appropriation bill
remains on the calendar and there is
no reed for adjournment except to
escape from taking action on that case
and other political matters, like the
postoilice scandals, that threaten loss
of votes. The Republicans cannot avoid
these dilemmas; they have two-thirds
majority of the senate and must take
the responsibility

TWO INDUSTRIES COMPARED
How the Tariff Affects Sheep and
Hens ard Wool and Esgs.


Hens ard Wool and Eggs.
The insigniicance of our sheep aud
wool industry is seen when compared
| with our poultry and egg industry.
While the total value of our wool prod
uct last year was only $3S,7775,3133,
| that of our egg product was S145,O00,
600 in 1890 and probably 5000, 100000
last year.
The value Of the 91,OO0,OOO dozens OF
eggs laid in Ohio in 1899 was over S10,-
| 100000, while the value of the 1890
600 pounds Of wool produced there
was only $3,134,2Os, and yet Ohio is
by far the largest woolgrowing state
east of the Rocky mountains. If Ohio
| sheep could be made to produce as
much value us do Ohio hens the pre-
| tectionists there, from Grosvenor down.
might be excused for doing more cac
| king than do all of the hens in that
state.
Even the value Of the poultry killed
for food is $13O,0O0,00O year, OF two
wool products.
In view of these facts why is there
| so much fuss and feathers about pro-
lection to our sheep and wool industry
| and so little said about the industrious
hen and her valuable egg product on
the part of our tariff worshipers?
Could not our farmers be made to he
lieve that their far more valuable egg
and poultry industry is entirely de-
pendent upon the duties upon the eggs
| and chickens?
Is it not certain that this industry
would be ruined and that our domestic
hens would Immediately retire from
business If the tariff duties were taken
off and the pauper hens of Europe and
their cheap labor products were put on
the free list? Are not our protection
list friends overlooking good thing
when they neglect to fill the Congress
sional Record with speeches and sta
tistics showing the great benefit Of pro-
lection to this great and growing in
dustry? Would it not, in fact, be bet
ter for their cause If they would drop
the declining sheep and wool industry
and let it go to the dogs, where it ap-
pears to be going in spite Of extreme
ly high duties?

Alderman Wallinder asked the
council regarding the legality of CIV
ing the printing to the Plaindealer
without submitting same for bids,
but was cut short by Alderman
Young, who moved that The HER
AIDS petition be tabled, which was
seconded by Ober and voted for by
Smith, these three being a majority
of the members present.
The official city printing amounts
to considerable during the year and
the taxpayers pay the bill. For three
years the Plaindealer has been draw
ing a remunerative salary from the
city treasury and made the taxpayers
say they liked it. We have given the
city fathers an opportunity to reduce
this expense, but the powers that be
have willed it otherwise. While we
feel justified in censuring certain
members Of the council, there are yet
loyal and conscientious members who
have the honest interests Of the city
at heart and want an economic adj
ministration.

HELD Up The
CITY TREASURY

Smith and Ober at the council meet
ing Saturday evening, but whether it
will be successful or not will develop
later.
Three weeks ago THE HERALD in
PRODUCED a communication to the city
council asking for part of the city
official printing. The matter was re-
ferred to City Attorney Hammond
for legal advice, who reported two
weeks later that he failed to find the
law regulating city or town printing.
That same evening the Plaindealer
presented a paper asking for the
whole of the city printing under con-
tract of two years at stated price of
Is cents per folio Tor 100 Words.) On
motion by Alderman Young. second
ed by j. J. Ober, the contract was
promptly accepted. This was in di-
rect violation of the law regulating
city or town printing, which plainly
states that the contract Unjust be let
to the lowest bidder" Accordingly,
Saturday evening, The HERALD
placed the following petition before
the council:
To the Honorable Mayor and Mem
bers of the City Council of the City
of Havre:
In accordance with the Montana
state law providing for city or town
printing, the contract forWhich must
be let to the lowest bidder, respect
fully ask that the publishing of pro-
ceedings and ordinances for the city
be opened for bids by the city coun-
Gil.
This will not only insure the legal
ity of the official printing, but will
mean economy on the part of the
present administration.
Respectfully,
A. C. LENDER.
After Clerk Kelly had read the pc
tition Alderman Young addressed the
council, the purport of his remarks
being that the councilmen would ap-
pear like school boys to revoke an &C
ton already taken even though it
was illegal and against the interests
of the tax payers.
Alderman Smith, who has had some
experience in law, having read the
first two chapters of Robinson Crusoe,
opined that the city council had the
right to designate the official paper,
regardless of any law regarding same.
However, we can excuse these two
worthy alderman on account Of their
very close affiliations with the Plain
dealer.
The next to express his views was
Alderman J. j. Ober, who stated in
words to the effect that THE HERALD
was not an established paper, that
the editor did not possess the wealth
essential for doing printing for such
an astute body and that he was as
Stunning too much in asking for same.
This is the gentlemen who promised
to be our friend, who is dependent
upon the patronage of the working
man. BY his own words he has placed
himself on record as declaring the
man of moderate means unfit to re-
ceive patronage from those in better
circumstances, and that it is assump-
ton on their part to ask for it. We
have Travelled somewhat, we have
studied human nature in it's loftiest

FRUIT
Cold Snap Causes Flood of
 Perisables Here

The sudden appearance of the cold snap that is prevailing in the north with the rapid fall in the water of the Yukon will give Skagwayans an oppor- tunity to get fruit and other perisable goods at advantageous prices. Mer- chants in the interior who had placed orders for great quantities of these goods have cancelled the orders by wire, fearing it would be impossible to get them to the distination in time. As a result, Skagway is threatened with an iuundation in that line.
 John Kalem, the grocer, has placed 800 packages of fruit on sale, as a re- suit of cancellation of orders from the interior. The goods will be displayed in the store room recently vacated by Martin Conway The lot consists of apples, peaches, melons, and cantel- opes.
