THE ENEMs's COUNTRY.

At Philadelphia yesterday morning a
newspaper man asked Senator Aldich
n he were not going into the "enemy's
country" In making his trip to the mid
die west. The senator replied by say
ing that he did not know that there
was an enemy's country. but that he
was going west to find out" Senator
a idrich's journey is in the interest Of
"a great undertaking in connection
with our financial system" and he Is
right in supposing that all of the peo-
pie of the United States are interested
in the project. He says that he goes
west to learn rather than to teach and.
after he has spent a few days In Chi
cago and other cities of the central
states. he will have acquired plenty
of information. The people of the west
are never bitterly hostile to any gov
ernmcntal move. providing they are
satisfied that there is a sincere and
honest desire for improvement behind
II. II the senator from Rhode Island
can convince the west that his central
bank scheme Is good one. then he
can be sure that there will be no such
place as the ''enemy's country"

NO COMPROMISE.

NO compromise Is needed says the
Spokane Chronicle in commenting on
the warfare being wasei against the
Inland Empire capital by the Indus
trial Workers of the World. The
Chronicle discusses the situation as
follows:
The Industrial Workers of the
World are filling up the city jail under
the plea that they are making a fight
for free speech. They have sent out
for members of their order. From
many parts of the northwest the l.
w. w. men have flocked to Spokane
to take part in the fight. No one
should deny the right of free speech.
Every American citizen has a right
to talk when he pleases. if he is not
interfering with the rights of others
and is not exciting the minds of men
and women to violence or crime. The
question is not really under discussion
IT, sookane. The city is willing that
these. orators should turn their elo-
quence loose in halls or store rooms,
or on vacant lots. but insists that no
man or woman shall have the right To
block the streets. stop business and
incite matchmaking crowd TO disor-
derby actions Such protection every
man in a civilized community has the
right to demand. 1t is duty Of obedi-
ence every citizen OF the country owes
to his fellowman. II the l. W. W
men believe the law is wrong. they
have perfect right to test it. oil
work to have it changed. They have
no right. however. TO clog the wheels
Of the law and to stop its action. II
they believe they have the privilege
of speaking at any place and time. they

FIFTY THOUSAND.

FIFTY thousand for Missoula' does
not seem at all unattainable. in the
light of the enthusiasm developed at
last evenings meeting Of the Boosters
club. II is as certain as the rising OF
tomorrow's sun. even II the nebular
hypothesis is still groggy from Pro-
lessor Salisberry's JOLT. that Missoula
is to grow. and grow rapidly. We who
live here believe in the future of the
city. but II is gratifying to know that
others believe with us. The man who
comes to M.ssoula from the east is
even more impressed with the city's
prospects than is he who has lived
here for years: one sees at a glance
what has been gradually unfolding it
self before the other. Both see the
same progress and prosperity. but the
strangers view makes more of an i'm
preston. Therefore. the securing OF
new citizens is not going to be very
trying task. and fifty thousand doesn't
seem SO very far away.

ECONOMICAL LAUNDRY SECURES
VALUABLE ASSET.

The management Of the Economi-
al Laundry Company is always
cooking to the best interests of the
ublic. This enterprise was started
few years ago under adverse cir
umstances, but by determined men,
men who have race pride and were
Wiling to make every sacrifice
n their power to remove from
their people one of the most
infamous insults ever perpetra-
ed upon human beings. A few
ears ago several of the laundry com
Danies in this city decided that it
would be a good advertising scheme
20 deceive the white people by adver-
Using on their wagons that they did
oct take Negro washing and they
lid so advertise, but they never did
stop taking Negroes clothes in their
1fices. and their wagons solicited
rom the homes of Negroes. The in
nit remained, however hypocritical.
The saying that it is an i'll wind that
blows nobody good served to a good
Nurpcse in this case A few deter
"ined Negro men decided that the
ecessity for any Negro going to a
White mans laundry for anything
must be removed. They started with
practically every one in the plant
~reen. Many restless nights were
7pent and many sacrifices made. The
gloomy days have come thick and
fast, but amid all the adversities that
come to the man in business they
ave stuck to their post, and the peo-
Me will rejoice to learn that to-day
tie Economical Laundry is on bet
ter running basis than it has ever
been. They have recently secured
the association of Mr.. Nelson, who
conducted the Chicago Laundry in
East Nashville fer 50 many years.
Mr. Nelson is the best laundryman in
this city. He has a large number of
friends and patrons who will be too
clad to carry him their work at the
Economical Laundry This laundry
is to be complimented for it's fine
Judgment in securing Mr.. Nelson
with their company. He will have
absolute control of all the work.
Everything will pass under his scru-
tinizing eyes before going to the pub

irons of the Economical Laundry will
always be satisfied.
