A SUCCESSFUL MEETING.

Notwithstanding the season of the
year and the distance some of our
farmers live from Lewistown, quite
a number availed themselves of the
opportunity to attend the meetings
held last Thursday under the direction
of the Montana Farmers Institutes,
the headquarters of which are at Boze-
man. There were between fifty and
sixty present at the afternoon meet
ing, while quite number remained
for the evening session. That all were
entertained and instructed by what
was said and done, goes without say
ing. That these meetings do and will
prove of incalculable benefit to farm
ers and stock growers cannot be Ques
| toned.
The interest shown in the several
topics handled was manifest by the
many questions asked by the audi
ence, which at times amounted almOS
to a general discussion. And it wa:
surprising as well as gratifying t.
note the familiarity of some of ou
farmers with the subject under con
sideration, showing that they have
been thinking over the new problems
of farming, stockgrowing and dairy

Very little is being accomplished
in the direction of peace between
Russia and Japan. There is a strong
peace sentiment in st. Petersburg but
the war party, which is in close touch
with the czar, in fact, influences him,
are for continuing the struggle. There
may be, however, considerable of the
bluff in this, the object being to Sc
cure the very best terms possible from
Japan. But the latter has too great
an advantage and her statesmen are
too shrewd to be caught mapping.
Russia would gladly agree to terms
of peace that do not call for ces-
sion of territory and money indem-
nifty. But the war, which was not of
Japans provoking, has cost that coun-
try nearly $3OO,OOO,0OO for the first
year, while it's cost for the present
year is estimated at $350,000,O00. Con.
sidering that the war was forced up.
on Japan it is not likely that any terms
will be considered by that country
| that do not provide for at least a
large money indemnity, and guaran
tees that will insure the little island
against Russian aggressions for some
years to come.

The Russian peasants, firing of war
and revolution, are coming to Amer
lea in large numbers. The latest gov.
eminent statistics show that during
last January $4,000 subject of the car
arrived at United States ports. For
the same month in 1902 the Russian
arrivals were 4,O4S; for January IN
1903 they were a total of Gill, and
Of about seven thousand for January,
1904. The migration from other Eu-
ropean countries is also very large
and promises to surpass the record
for a number of years past. Unfor-
tunately for themselves and the Unit
ed States, too many of them stop in
the large cities upon arrival. Num-
bers would do better in the interior
of the country or in the far west, while
it is doubtless true that a great many
European immigrants are undesirable
from any standpoint. The bulk of the
latter day immigration is not what it
used to be.

SEWING COTTON.
The Humble Origin Of the Grea
Thread Industry.

The Humble origin Of the Great
Thread Industry.
The origin Of sewing cotton was told
at cotton manufacturers meeting by
the head Of the great thread house Of
Paisley, Scotland. 1t was discovered
In 1903 by his grandfather, who had a
little business in Paisley, making silk
Irvine for heldles, which were used by
every weaver. The silk came from
Hamburg and in 1903 Napoleon caused
the stock held there to be burned in Or
der to hamper British trade. The weav-
ers were in despair. but James Clark
conceived the idea that cotton yarns
could be twisted together to form the
twines.
The experiment succeeded. and from
this grew the idea that cotton could be
substituted for fax in the manufacture
Of sewing thread and would not be SO
coarse and harsh. He began the manu-
facture of the thread in a very small
way. 1t was at first put up in skeins
and had to be wound into little balls by
the purchaser, and then Mr.. Clark In
vented the modern spools. He had them
, made by wood turner. half gross a,
a time They cost him sixpence doz
en-. and he charged the purchaser Of the
thread a halfpenny for the spool
/ which, however. was refunded wher
the spool was returned. The ladies Of
Paisley used to come to his shop witt
their spools and wait while he wount
the thread on them. From this sinai
beginning grew a great industry.

THE LOCAL ELECTION.

In the municipal election held last
Monday the Democrats carried off a
majority of the offices, electing the
mayor, police magistrate, city treas
urer and one alderman-from the
Third ward.
The Republicans placed no one in
nomination for city treasurer, so the
Democratic candidate had NO oppo-
sition.
However, party lines, as usual in
municipal contests, cut very little fig
ure with considerable number of
neutrality-suspicious. voting for Dem.
ocrats and Democrats for Republicans.
Considering the nature of the con.
test and what he unswervingly stood
for, Mr.. Symmes, Republican candi.
date for mayor, made good run and
can feel proud of the vote he receiv.
ed, even in defeat. Although the
wide-open element may have occasion
to rejoice over the election Of Mr.
Pinkley it can hardly extract any
comfort from the composition of the
city council. It is claimed that all
six of the aldermen will stand oppos
ed to any effort to repeal the ordi
nances already enacted for the pur
pose of controlling saloons and gamb
ling. 1t is at least quite certain thai
majority will take that position
That being true, the responsibility fol-
decent and orderly city will rest with
the mayor and his city marshal.
Mr.. Pinkley, in public letter before
the election, declared himself in ia
vor of a clean and economical city
government and doubtless some voted
for him believing that such would! bt
his purpose if elected. Mr.. Pinkle,
should be given fair chance to make
good. 1t will be easier to- determine
what his idea of an orderly town is
and what his duties are under the or
dinances, after a while. If he antag
onizes the great majority of his sup
porters he will make a good mayor.
The new city council will have some
hard problems coming before it fol
consideration. Demands are many
and the revenues small and there will
be necessity for judicious economy II
the way of public improvements.
1t is said that a good many ante
election promises looking to improve
ments were made in order to sc
votes. If so, such propositions shouit
have not only the rigid scrutiny of tn
members of the council, but that o
interested citizens generally.

Andrew Carnegie, in public letter,
favors the building of Pan-American
railroad from New York to Buenos
Ayres, believing it better than a big
navy for the defense of the Monroe
doctrine. He places the cost of build
ing the 5000 miles of road at $780,.
100000. He says, "if we contributed,
say, only one years cost of the navy
800, 900 ,OO0--and asked the South
American republics to contribute the
remaining $75,OOO,OOO necessary, it
would settle the Monroe doctrine for all
time" This project is a dream of the
future. AS paying enterprise great
financiers see nothing in 1t at present
owing to the lack of local support
throughout much of it's entire length.
The American navy is not maintain
ed for the sole purpose of enforcing
the Monroe doctrine, however impor.
