IT CAN BE DONE.

There Is no contradiction to our as
sertion that the city can be cleared
of the male vampires who infest the
bad lands IL there is a determination
on the part of the officers to do the
work. 1t is a poor comment upon the
quality of the work of our officers that
this city harbors men who have been
run out Of other Montana cities. men
whose presence would not be tolcr-
ated for a moment in Butte or wal
lace or any one of dozen towns that
might be named. 1t is no excuse for
the officers to say that they cannot
secure evidence to convict these crea-
lures: In other cities the officers are
able TO get rid of them: why not here?
1t is a fact that there are more or
these wretches wandering about this
city than ever before; II is also a fact
that they are holder and more brazen
than ever: they flaunt their hideous
presence In the faces of our women
and our children: they defy law and
they outrage decency. We had plenty
of promises before election: now let us
have some OF their fulfiilment.

MlsSoulA COUNTY MINES.

There are indications which seem
certain. pointing to the advent Of
some of Missoula county's mineral
properties into the class of producers.
In all departments of mining there
has been good development this sum
mer. Gold and copper. silver and lead,
coal and placer-all these lines of min
ing operation have been active this
year and as the season closes there
are favorable reports from all sides.
Missoula's mineral wealth is vast:
around Saltese on the west and near
Clinton on the east there are proper
ties that have been proved to be val
liable; there are indications that this
years work has made real mines of
scrse of them. There have been some
remarkable developments in placer
ground this summer in Missoula
county; another spring will certainly
find the flood water at work upon
some new bedrock of wonderful value
In coal prospecting there has been sys-
tematic work for the first time and
at least two properties are nearing a
condition when they can market good
coal. The outlook is bright.

hesion To the democratic masses in
the different counties for the fall cleo
tions."
Though the men enlisted in the
peace movement disclain. any fac
tional object. the personnel OF the con-
ference is such as to strengthen the
reports already in circulation that the
real purpose of the movement is to
bring about the rehabilitation of the
party by sauelching the so-calIed rad
ical element. Bryan and Organism are
not to be discussed, but it is, never
theless. significant that practically all
of those figuring as leaders in the con-
ference movement are identified with
the conservative wing of the party IN
New York state. which has always
been lukewarm in its support of tho
Nebraskan.
The attitude of the conference to-
ward the leaders of the democratic
party in New York city remains OBJ
scure. Neither Mayor Mcclellan.
Leader Murphy of Tammany nor Pat
rick MeCarren OF Brooklyn is taking
part in the movement, and 1t Is doubt
full if they were invited to participate.
on the other hand, several OF those
who are known to be bitter political
opponents of the three men named are
among the most conspicuous figures In
the conference
