Yesterday at the noonday meeting of the chamber of commerce, J. Adam Bede told tius that he came near to locating in Missoula twenty years ago. He congratulated the city upon having got along so well without him. On her part, lissoula desires to compli ment Mr. Bede upon having made such good progress without Missoula. But. more seriously, Missoula wishes to thank Mr. Bede for his exposition, yesterday, of tb' g6spol of optimem and of co-operation. If the remarks made yesterday by Missoula's distin guished visitor could have been heard by every man and woman in western Montana. this section would benefit amasingly. It was a splendid elucida tion of the advantages of the pull together policy, and it supplemented perfectly the suggestion made by Sec retary Odca of the Hamilton Chamber of Commerce, for unity of action on the mpart of the business organisations of the west-end counties. This is a proposition in which Miueoula has long been interested and In which she is heartily willing to participate. Pull together; then the pull will win. TO THE POINT. The Missoullan recently printed the speech delivered by Representative Pray in support of his bill for the cre ation of a bureau of mines. There has been plenty of indorsement of this measure lately; in fact, the numerous fatal aeCidents in the coal mines this winter have furnished the most pow erful argument that could be made in furtherance of the provisions of the Pray bill. Succinct and pointed are the resolutions adopted by the Na tional Civic federation; they express briefly the argument In support of the bill, but they are complete: Whereas, The increasing loss of lfe I In American mining operations and the enormous waste of resources espential to both the present and future wel fare of the nation, plainly indicate the need of more uniform, rational and enforceable mining laws and regula tions in each of the several mining states; and Whereas, T''here h- now pending be fore the congress of the United States a bill to establish a bureau of mines in the department of the interior, for inquiry and Investigation, to aid in the accomplishment of these purposes, now, therefore, be It Resolved, by the National Confer ence on Uniform Legislation. That we earnestly urge upon the governors of the several states the importance of co-operating with the federal govern ment to procure uniformity upon which Intelligent state legislation may be based. 00 IT, HIGH SPEED. This is the last day; if you have galtles, proceed to get gay between now and midnight tonight, for the ban of Lent will fall when the cluck strikes twelve, and saekciloth and ashesl will supplant silken hosh:ry and the small, hot bird. The world, the flesh and the devil \'ill proceed tonight to take a back seat and the beef trust will feel the effect of an Influence Inure powerful than a buycoutt against prices. Whatever there It, upon your calendar in the way of high-jnlks should be crowded into the few short hours that remain of the open season for that variety o.' game. There is need for the forty days of abstinence; there is need for physical relaxation as well as for spiritual renewal. So clear your date-book today and close it until Easter. EASIER CONDITIONS. Henry Clews continues to be opti lastic regarding the condition of the money market; his comment in his weekly floancial letter is In pleasing contrast to the tone of some of the pesslmistic predictions which have been rife lately. Mr. Clews says: "An easier condition prCvaili in the money market. Funds are generally returning from the interior quite freely, and the liquidation of the last few works has tended to iedsen the demands for accommodation. The fall In securities has induced bankers to scrutinile collateral i little more cl..sely, but the monetary situation as a whole is satisfactory. The banks hive been strengthened by liquidation and will be the better prepared for resumption of business activity in the' spring. lFor bonds the demand con tinues indifferent, the sales in January showing a large shrinkage compared with a year ago. Some pending Issues are still held up waiting a better market; investors showing a prefer ence for stocks which at current prices give much better returns than bonds. Very soon there will be larger de mands upon the money market through the borrowings of various governments. A Panama bond Issue must soon be forthcoming, especially as government revenues continue to fall below expenditures, and Germany will also soon be out with a large loan. But there are no serious demands upon the money market In slght, and fair, but not high, rates of intereast seem probable until the crop demands again assert themselves." Mr. Beds summed up the high-price situation admirably: "If you want to give up the automobile and the tele phone and the electric light and the steam heat and the otler conven lences, you can live as cheaply as your grandfather did. You can, but you don't want to." Thu pull-tugether plan, now Indorsed by the chambers of commerce of Ham ilton and Missoula, is the sure way to success In publicity work. If Flathead and Sanders Will take hold, the pull will be all the more effective. In Washington state they extermi nate coyotes by feeding them dyna mite. We might employ this method to get rid of the knockers In Montana; it would be easy, because they would furnish the dynamite. When you slse up J. Adam Dede and, at the same time, review Missoula, you realise what an opportunity for each was missed when the I~an and the city didn't get together, twenty years ago. While they shiver in a temperature ot 2P degrees belusc zero, there are some New York people who feel sorry for those of us who live In the Rocky mountains. The best boost that western Montana gets is found In the complete satisfac tion which her people feel In getting holne after trips east or west. One more day of sinfulness, one more night misspent-then, with throbbing headache, we'll sober up through Lent. The co-operation of toe various pub licity workers in western Montana will make the efforts farther-reaching. Although her latest gun man bears the name, St. Regis does not claim that he ls the lost Charlie Ross. The noonday meetings add to the popularity and thie influence of the chamber of commerce. There is nothing so terrible as a winter in the canyons amongst New York's high buildings. Mr. Ileyburn bald he would vote no. if he voted all alone--and the rull call showed that he did. Aesop's story of the old maim and the bundle of fagots is as true now as it was centuries ago. The one sure thiing in the Kansas City inquiry is that Thomas Swope is dead. Missoula will meet lIamnilton more than half way In the co-operation plan. Senator Hleyburn didn't deliver tile old Fioraker speech with telling effect. It is true, there is a Ileyburin: but it is also true that there is a I)avis. New York's cold wave takes the nerve out of the meat boycott. The boost that counts ls the buust that is broad-gauged. Now subscribe to tie lted Apple banquet list. 'iThe Ited Apple belt is the challpilon ship belt. PROHIBITION BILL GOES TO COMMITTEE ashlington, Fe'b, 8.-Th bill intro duced in the house by Representatlvo Scott of Kansas extending prohibition to the Hawaiian islands, has been re ferred to the judiciary committee. Mr. Scott announced today that he would move to have the bill transferred to the committee on territories, where he said it properly belonged. A bill similar to tile Scott measure was in troduced in the senate and is before the committee on Pacific' islands and Porto Rico. The bill has not been favorably reported by the latter com mittee. CASTRO ARRIVES, Washington, Feb. 8.-The American consulate in the Canary islands to day reported to the state department that ex-Presildent Castro of Venezuela had arrived there from Spain.

Pinkham you are conl fiding your private ills to a woman -a woman whose ex perience with women's diseases covers twenty-five years. The present Mrs. Pinkham, daughter-in-law of Lydia E. Pinkham, was for years under her direction, and has ever since her decease continued to advise women. Many women suffer in silence and drift along from bad to worse, knowing well that they ought to have immediate assistance, but a natural modesty causesthem to shrink from exposing themsel'es to the questions and probable examinations of even their family physician. Such ques tioning and examination is unnecessary. Without cost you can consult a women whose knowledge from actual experience is great. MRS. PINKHAM'S STANDING INVITATION: Women suffering from any form of female weakness are in vited to promptly communicate with Mrs. Pinkham at Lynn, " Mass. All letters are received, opened, read and answered by women. A woman can freely talk of her private illness to a woman; thus has been established thi3 confidence between Mrs. Pinkham and the women of America which has never been broken. Never has she published a testi monial or used a letter without the written consent of the writer, and never has the company allowed these confi dential letters to get out of their possession, as the hun dreds of thousands of them in their files will attest. Out of the vast volume of experience which Mrs. Pink ham has to draw from, it is more than possible that she has gained the very knowledge needed in your case. She asks nothing in return except your good will, and her advice has helped thousands. Surely any woman, rich or poor, should be glad to take advantage of this generous offer of assistance.
