"LEsr we FORGET"

Across the plains of Texas the voice
of Bryan sounds strong and clear. In
clarion tone he states that while he
does not want to run again, at the
same time, if circumstances demand,
he will be the candidate Of the Demo
cratic party for the presidency in
1912. sV
He uttered those words just before
he crossed the International line, for a
pleasure jaunt through Old Mexico, in
order that the Democrats may not get
up nerve enough to think of nominal
ing some one else for the job.
From this distance, it seems that,
no matter what the people may think,
Bryan has cinch that even the Dem
ocratic mule cannot break.
A great deal of time and trouble
may be saved, it occurs to us, if the
party would simply meet in conven-
ton, and nominate him as a life candi-
date. That would do away with the
necessity and expense Of quadrenniel
gatherings, and besides, it would give
Mr.. Bryan more time to devote to the
business of running for office, while
the people rule.

FLAGS SHOULD BE HALE-MAsTED
TODAY,

The remains of Ex-Governor Smith
will be laid to rest at Kalispel today.
It is fitting that the flags on the pub
lie buildings of Billings should be
placed at half mast during that por-
ton of the day.
Eastern Montana owes a debt of
gratitude to Ex-Governor Smith. Not
so much because OF his services dur.
ing the term he occupied the execu-
tive chair. nor because OF any act of
his while he sat in the state house
at Helena.
Ex-Governor Smith was a horticul-
turist, who did o perhaps, than all
others to advance the horticultural in
terests Of Montana. Last spring he
was in Billings, and presided over the
meeting of the state society.
He was known throughout the east.
ern part of the state and he was loved
and respected by all. HE was a man
who worked necessarily, and who used
his great influence to the end that the
greatest number might benefit by his
efforts.

PROSPERITY ROLLING FORWARD

Steadily the wave of prosperity rolls
forward.
Butte was the first section affected
by the advance in the price of cop
per. The red metal is climbing up
ward, and a few more steps means
that the miners of that camp will be
getting 81 per day.
Now comes the news that the North
ern Pacific railroad has ordered new
passenger equipment, to care for the
increased traffic, for orders are pour
ing in from all sides to prepare for an
influx of new settlers from the east
This e that the entire state is
to receive direct benefit.
Thousands of acres of ground will
be broken next summer, for the PEG
pie are going back to the land, which
is, after all, the foundation of our
national wealth.
More settlers and an increased pro.
duction from the farm means that

TRouBLE in CHINA.

Assassination Is a business in China.
It is not a legitimate calling, to be
sure, but 1t is followed by a certain
class. The method is used by anyone
who has the price, to rid himself or
the community Of a person or persons
considered obnoxious.
It is a custom that survives from. BY
gone ages, when each man accounted
only to himself, and not the commun-
ity.
Just at the present time, there is a
boom on, and the professional pois-
oners, throat cutters, head smashers
and dirk wielders, who operate in the
dark, are ready for business.
A new regime means an adjustment
along different lines, and judging the
future by the past, these fellows figure
that there will be enemies to punish
that certain members OF the old ord
er OF things must be put out Of the
way, to the end that new men may
come forward.
It probably never occurs to these
people that the new man will come
forward in any event.
While all this is going on, however.

MONEY FOR EXPANDING TRADE

Money is flowing outward again.
The demand for it increases daily.
Manufacturers who desire to expand
their business are seeking more CAPT
tai, and on all sides there is q general
demand for an increase. This demand
arises, is backed by depleted stocks
and fat orders from the retailers, and
hence there is no difficulty in obtain
ing the funds with which to carry on
the improvements. e
Thus it is that financial institutions
r taking care Of the business inter-
ests to an extent never known be-
fore.
Men who were idle three weeks
ago, may be seen now, hurrying along
the streets in the early hours Of the
morning, dinner pail in hand.
Already more than half a million
men have been placed at work.
Prosperity has returned. and the
man who labors under the impression
that it has not, has lost track of the
most important event OF the new CEN
fury.
