The President's ![essage. Grover Cleveland has issued his mes sage, and its complexion is not a surprise to one who has read the newspapers during the past few months. He recom mends the unconditional repeal of the Sherman law, and ascribes all the finan cial disturbances to that law alone. He has shown himself a tool in the hands of the gold bugs and as far removed from f' the interests of the people as an English Shylock. He has calmly set aside the s platform of the democratic party upon 0 which he was elected, and now poses as a dictator rather than a president of the t republic. As far as representing the t people is concerned, he has made an s ignoble failure. In short he is a traitor to the people, and as to being an Amer- 1 ican at heart, he is dead. May his soul rest in peaceis the least and at the same I time approuriate wish we make for him. s A call is out for a meeting of the wool e growers' association, to be held in Great I Falls on the 5th day of September. All 1 wool growers are urged to attend this meeting and, by their presence and I counsel, put life and vigor into the state association. The officers are making a special effort to have a big meeting this year. The president of the association, I Mr. B. C. White, is giving the subject E attention. In personal letters he asks e the newspapers to help spread the notice f of the meeting. The Mlessage. Under the general cloud of uncertainty I and depression of things, President I Cleveland's message brought with it but ' little hope for relief to the western or silver-producing states. The gold bugs say it is admirable; England will rejoice at its tone. and the nabobs of Wall street already feel that a new lease of life is granted them. But what for the laboring classes? If Grover Cleveland is successful in obtaining that which he recommends congress to enact, the peo ple who toil for a livelihood must hastily submit to a reduction of wages such as has never been known in this country. The silver mines cannot be operated and the farmer and manufacturer must yield to an outrageous reduction for their products, Of the message Bland says: "As nearly as I could make it out, it was a plea for a single, gold standard because England maintains it. If Eng land would coin silver probably this country would do so. We seem to have lost the spirit of 1776." Anyone familiar with history is well aware what the spirit of 1776 means. Those who may not appreciate this re mark by Mr. Bland would be enlightened on reading the Declaration of Independ ence, which shows how acutely the foreign power was then felt among the colonists and how courageously they rebelled against it and won their free dom, and that freedom which has existed among us up to the present time, and now we are confronted with a similar circumstance, but, unfortunately, the element at the head of our government is not the kind of material that cham pioned the defeat of England at that time. Let us be thankful, however, that we have enough men like Hon. R. P. Bland in Washington ti defeat this gold-bug president in his attempt to enact such laws as would favor John Bull and dis franchise millions of American people from their right to an existence in this so-called free country. Fast iMaking Friends. That the silver cause is rapidly gaining friends throughout the east is unmistak able. Many leading papers throughout the eastern country are now advocating free silver, and most all of them are giving the white metal some show, except those like the Minneanolis Journal, the Pioneer Press and the Globe, of St.Paul, whose columrs have undoubtedly been purchased with gold-bug boodle. The Press, of New York City, which is one of the ablest newspapers in America, has taken quite a decided stand in favor of silver. In an editorial in its columns of August 3rd, it had the following: "The situation in Denver, as pictured in special dispatches to the Press, is most pitiable. It is a new and terrible experience for this generation of Ameri cans to see great masses of men who are able and willing to work suffering from hunger. One of the crowning glories of the republican party has been the fact that under its rule there have always been work and wages for Ihe growing population of the country. The con stant development and diversification of industries under protection has created a steady demand for labor which not even the great yolume of foreign immi gration could satisfy. The closing of the silver mines in Colorado and the general stagnation of manufacturing industries have forced a multitude of men into idleness. Public and private charity is taxed tc the at most to keep the unemployed in Denver and its vicinity from actual starvation. Soup dispensaries have been established, army tents erected and rations of bread and meat issued by wholesale; yet the host of famished and homeless men increases daily. The situation appeals to the sympathy of the whole nation. It demonstrates the immense importance of the silver mining industry. The prospertv of several of the younger western states is dependent, under present conditions, upon the operation of the silver mines. The Idleness, poverty and suffering bought about by the suspension of this industry are arguments whose force can not be gainsaid in favor of the protection and encouragement of silver mining as one of our great national interests. - -I A FE.w Pointers. The Salt Lake Tribune makes the s following pertinent suggestion: a When the new bill remonetizing silver a shall be prepared,after stating the weight of the dollar, half dollar, and quarter I dollar, and making them all a legal tender for debts in unlimited quantities, there should be added a clause to read something like this: C "Any person bringing bullion from any United States mine, 900 fine, to the mints of the United States, shall receive for the same full pay in silver dollars or silver certificates. "Whenever any foreign nation or sov erign state shall accept the foregoing ratio and shall male United States coins legal tender for debts within its bound aries, upon official notice of that fact being served upon our government, the citizens and bullion of such country shall be entitled to the same rights at our mints that a native or bullion shall receive, and to suchi nation moreover, shall be extended all reciprocity rights f extended by our nation to the most favored nations." John D. Ruff has bought the Bitter Root Times, of Hamilton, Montana, of George T. Strudel, who, on account of 111 health, was compelled leave to Montana. THE MAIL 1i pleased to welcome John D. as one of the newspaper proprietors of Montana. This feeling is doubtless shared by a large number of the readers of THE MAIL who well remember him l through his former connection with this paper. Mr. Ruff has earned the repu- I tation of being a forcible and capable newspaper man, who has held positions on the principal daily papers of the state. The people of Hamilton are fortunate in having Mr. Ruff locate among them, and we hope to see the Times prosper as it has never done before. The fact that a fine new steel torpedo boat, the Ericsson, is now nearly ready for launching at Dubuque, Iowa, is grat ifying evidence of the development of the ship builder's art in the interior of the country. The Ericssson is the first yessel of our new navy to be built away from the seaboard. She is 150 feet long and must reach the high speed of 24 knots in order to fulfill her contract re quirements. The construction of a vessel of this type on the banks of the Mississippi shows the practicability of equipping our entire fleet of torpedo boats on the interior waters of the United States in case of war with a foreign power whose guns might menace our seaboard. The Microcosm, in an exhaustive article on the situation and the remedies to be applied, has the following perti nent query: If combustible, perishable paper bills, which soon become "filthy rags," can purchase gold at par simply by having the proper government stamp p placed upon them, why in the name of I honest legislation should not a silver dollar, pure, white and untarnishable, have the same commercial rating by - virtue of a similar stamp with its own i intrinsic value to help it? We defy the logic of the world to overturn this common-sense method of reasoning. The silly claim of the gold bugs that the Sherman law is driving the gold all out of the country is amply refuted by the influx of gold to the United States during-the past ten days. Gold will be 3 used in settling the balances in trade and the silver issue will have no effect upon it whatever. Mrs. U. S. Grant has received from Francis S. Barstow Camp of Confererate veterans of Polk county, Florida, a set of resolution appreciative of her recent acts of courtesy to Mrs. J efierson Davis. The resolutions declare that Mrs. Grant's action has proved that the historic ap peal of her husband, "let us have peace," has been answered, and that we have once more a united and harmonious country wherein the bitterness of the past has been torgotten and mutual re spect and spmpathy exist. A plan has been agreed on for reopen ing the suspended banks at Denver which is thus outlined: All deposits of less than $100 to be subject to check at the will of the depositor; all sums of $100 and over to be due and payable with interest in six installments at inter vals of three, six, nine, twelve, fifteen and eighteen months from date of re opening. Enough of the large depositors have signified their willingness to accept this plan to make it a success. A number of idle employees of the Elwood (Ind.) tin plate works called on the manager recently to ascertain when the mills would resume operations. "We cannot tell, for we don't know ourselves," was the reply. "But what are we to do next winter?" eagerly asked the opera tives. "We don't know," was the answer, "unless you eat the roosters you wore on your hats after the election last year." If congress, upon convening next week, should pass a joint resolution de claring that the present tariff laws should not be disturbed, does anyone believe that it would not have the effect to restore that degree of confidence that would immediately cause a resumption of nearly, if not all, our manufacturing in dustries?-Livmngston Enterprise. A western editor is said to have solved the delinquent subscriber problem. He sends his paper out to "time subscribers" and sends a bill each year. When a second bill is sent and there is no re sponse he takes it, for granted that the subscriber is dead, and publishes an "obituary notice" in his columns. Give him the medal. An exchange says that "a single Kan sas cabbage head produced three hun dred cigars." Yes! Well, if a single Kansas cabbage head produced three hundred cigars, how many cabbage heads will it take to smoke them? And still they will continue to run down the cigarette fiend! The Western News, published at Stevensville, will be removed to Hamil ton in a few days, but will continue its Stevensville service the same as at present. The News says it will give its reasons in the next issue. An Oregon judge has ruled tin an. action against a newspaper for libel that "whenever a newspaper finds a case of flagrant wrong-doing and evil, it is its duty to expose it and give it the widest circulation." Great Britain never misses a chance A war ship and a land force of 1,000 rifles have been ordered to Victoria in the event of an unfavorable decision to the United States in the Bering sea contention. Chicago merchants figure that the fair visitors will leave from $120,000,000 and $450,000,000 there between now and November 1st.. They will be able to make a closer estimate on or about Dec ember 1st. The uncertainty as to Sunday opening of the world's fair cannot but seriously affect the attendance. If any good results* are to be expected the question should be definitely settled one way or 'the other. In the original draft of the .Declaration of Independence, written by Thomas. Jefferson, the word God is spelled with a s mall g. Democratic simplicity seems to have been much the same then as now. The Summit Chronicle, published at Coalville, Utah, has entered upon its second year. The Chronicle is a bright local paper, and the residents of Summit county should be proud of such a journal. James Frost and Annie Winter were married in the spring time in Missouri recently. Pretty chilly match, but still there is nothing in a name. Guess they will manage to keep warm. Farmers who are feeding their pigs on wheat claim to be getting $1 per bushel for the grain.-Chicago Inter Ocean. And now the bottom has dropped out df the poor porker. If it takes seven days after death for a Siamese's soul to reach heaven (accord ing to their belief), how long will it take a United States banker to reach that glorious kingdom? It passes all human comprehension why providence, in its immeasurable wisdom, should allow so many idiots to write financial articles for the leading daily papers. Col. Thomas P. Ochiltree, in a letter to the Baltimore Herald, declares that the Force bill was killed by the silver men, and that the south and silver is now a unit. During the reign of Victoria the Indian government has coined £2,000,000 gold and £206,000,000 of silver. The Siamese, in saluting, kiss each other's noses, and then sniffing, remark: "Very fragrant, very fragrant." It's naughty, but they think it's nice. The Kentucky followers of Schwein furth, the Illinois "Christ," have estab lished a "heaven" at Ixington. We can all take in this paradise, The Hope (Idaho) Examiner has been enlarged to four pages of six columns each. I ryant James, the publisher, is making a success of it. John L. Sullivan expresses the opinion that prize fighting has gone to the dogs. John preceded it some time ago. Money is to business what blood is to the human system. A taint affects the health of the whole body. Coincident with the Siamese trouble, Nyack, N. Y., reports another case of Siamese twins. The state press regardless of politics are giving Cleveland what Paddy gave the clown. It is said that fish is an excellent brain food. It is probably because they travel in schools. Under the Bourbon renaissance to be a union pensioner is to be prima facie a knave. Siam has accepted France's terms and consequently we are cheated out of a war. Edison says he is going to exterminate the mosquito. We hope he will succeed. Local Jots. E. E. Congdon, of the Bennet Bros, company, is over from Butte to-day at tending some business for his firm. Mrs. E. A. Pearson, formerly of New Chicago, and George Bennet, of Granite, were married in St. Paul on the 19th of July. They are now visiting the fair, and after a trip to Canada will return and make their home in Granite. A fishing excursion to Rock creek was made yesterday by Mrs. D. M. Durfee, Mrs. A. P. Bowle, Misses Mary and An nie O'Bannon, of Deer Lodge, Miss Fannie Bowie, Miss Sadie Downs, Rev. C. Howard Grube, E. T. Sackett and Sam Walker. Ed. McPherson, who has been driving express for Fred Lauer between Philips burg and Granite, was given $100 by Mr. Parvin at the Gannon & Neu store in Granite a few days ago which sum the driver pormised to deliver to their store in Philipsburg but failed to make the delivery and has not since been seen or heard from. Chased by a Lunatic. "I had an exciting experience the other evening," remarked a young society gentiman to THE MAhL'S Sunday editor. "I was going to my home and was hailed by some unknown person to stop, but instead of obeying I took to my heels as hard as I could po, with the strange being after me. I raft, and ran, and the other ran, and ran. He was swiftly gaining on me, and when I reached my apart mcnts the unknown person was almost up to me; in fact, so close I had pot time to close the door I rushed i,side and to my room aud craiwlcd into a clothes press. The other was after me and proceeded to search the house. It was evident that the party did not want to rob the pl|reiises, but wanted me. I concealed in the closet, determined to give him a good kick if he should open the door, as I had no other mieans of defense. The party searched the house from top to bottom and from that I knew I was alone with what I did not know. At last he returned to my room to search again and came toward the closet. I was shaking like a leaf and prepared to kick as I never kicked berore. He pulled on the door and I held on hard, but not hard enough, as the door flew open and I kicked, and, don't you know. I have the sorest foot in town to-day as I had kicked the foot-board of my bed!" Moral: Don't go out with the boys.
