THE RAVALLI REPUBLICAN. JA.i_3S E. STEVIENS, Editor. P'al isiled W ,'.! l y :I the Ct l Setta of l ii (')- ily, Moniii.t~lu. WEDNESI)AY, At;C'ST 'r 2, 1is04. WHAT" THIIEY. HAVE DONE. The deniocrati.g. part.y will not, be much troubled in.tl, e coling canln paign in reciting lwhat. has been ac-. complished under its ,oitrpl of botu branches of congress, lnd, t1ie.exec.u. tive 'or the first time sincetlie.war. On)ly three bills of 'any parti~ear im portancc have, bele passed in the year or more ssnce coingress first con S>ned. The ex;raordinary session began its work on Auguist 7, of last vear. That session lasted until Noveiber :, and the second se-sion reconvened (i DIcccember 4. 1lence this Congress lhas been in actual session for nearly one year. L.utt not owithstanding the fact that this congress has..exceeded the record for the number of dayms it has been in session,. it can show only three imnportant bills as the re suilt of its woik. It took it three :.iniths to repeal ihe purcliasing cluise of the. Sherman act.. Thie re peal of Itm. bill and ..the adjournmente of cnogress a demonstrated that there was no inilrovenlc.t wihatever in business. The assertions otlthle pres ident andil of other democratic, leaders as to hle wood results that were to immediately follow thile pasage of thai repealinlg act were shown to be utterly 'groundless. The countryl swenit on in tlhe depths of woe. as.the result of the threatened assault on the tair ,. 1lt was shown by statistics pub listed by Ilradstretb's, a rel)putable conmmerciatll agency, that the volumle o.f trade in the UIlited States, as rep resenied illn the clearing houses and exchanges, decreased in ( n,- year to the anoluint of $12,000,000,000. This is much more thIn the enltire cost of thue civil war, aind that mieasures whiat the counrt!:y hts sulffered froml a demnocratic congress. iluring the extra session the ways a-nd means colmnittl.e was appointed and organlized for business, and the work of assaulting tile McKinley act, under which tie coantry had pros pered to an extent never before known in its history, was promptly began. The tdemocratic iomembers weot to work in their dark-lantern method and begaln tile prepa,,ration of a bill to he reporetd, asi Soo ooas 'ol gross rgeotp-:!ejed in.: la-cemnler. As ai "result' - of that great effort for promplilegislation, longer time was takenl to ipas a tar'iff bill than at alny tjme during tile war. The bill as passed is denounced by the presidentI as one showing "party pn.eridy and party dishonor" and "de void of' prinlciplei" Leadibnl demo crats in botl houses have denounced it in the Ilost severe manner. Mr. Mills asserted ill the senate that he did not believe there were 1,000 per suns in tihe United States who ap proved that bill. Mr. Wilson,. tile chairman of the ways and means committee which drafted the orig inal bill, denounces the bill tlhat did pass as ';a bill of salo to the sugar tluist," yet lie voted for its passage. Boullrke Cockrai's views are given in another column of tiis paper. Other democrats denoulce it as 'illl'amllus' and only "a step" in tile direction they initend to take. If that is only 'fa step," God help the country if the people this fall give dIImocracy tlhe cha(nce to go the whole distance dur ing the nexIt iwv, years. One bill was passed which was wholly saltisfactory to tihe. demo 'rats in both houses and to thie. pres ident, and that was the bill to repeal the federal electi(on laws. Tihat is the one democratic achievement with which tlle are all satisfied. hlence, it is worth while tino take soie note of tiis mneasure lit speaking of tile work of congress. Tile federal elec tion Ilaws erely authorized thile ilp appointment of one democrat and one republican supllervisor of election at each polling place when a r' m.}1ter of congress was to be chosen in cities,of 20,000 inhabiLtants _. o1ver, and. these supervisors were aultthorized to watch the votilg and coulltitng', and see that no frauds wedtre committed. In cities of less tllhan 20,000 lhlllabitants where a certain number ofi electors peti tioned for the appointmenllt of super visors their appointmentt was author ized. But they could do nothing ex cept to watch the voting arid count ing. They were not authorized to make any arrests or interfere with the elections. As there are few cities in the Southla of 20,000 inhabitants " and l upward that part of tlhe law had no bearing in that section of the country. Blut the part that authorized supervisors, one a democrat and one a republican, to watch tle voting arnl;, eountiqg and gave. tilera.uti e protcetion of the federal power [to 'oi the watching was the part of the law the southern democrats objected to. All the elec tion officers in the southl; ire demo crats or under democratic control, but the southern leaders wanted no representatives of. the fI!leral, gov- I ernment to watch the ballot box stuffing and false counting which < goes on in the sout0h. At. the same time the Tammnan. mac!line in New York, which,. ,. cording tp the returns.already dgvebl. eped) in: the courts, pulled rltany thouscaUd-.iof. fraudulent votqs in the ,last electioc, was equally anxious to have the part of the law repealed that authorized the appointment o.f supervisors in cities. hence, the 'ballot box stulfers in the south and the 'Tammrany machine in New York joined hands to repeal this wise law and thus to remove any restraint on election frauds so far as the federal government is concerned, and the whole democratic party applauded the movement as 'a great reform.." That bill to make fraudulent electiona easier is thie one achievement of tCllia. congress concerning which tlgdemo crats are united. A bill was passed aut!lorizing the coinage of what Mr. Ilewitt calls '"a yaculup," butl w.liclh in grenoral terga. is known as lhe.seigniorage. b.i!l,. It was a liat money hill, pure and, sin 1ple)1.a s, the president promptly ve toel-d t. !uit the demlocrats in con grcss, with few exceptions, wero uni ted in the passage of that nireasure. The ipresideit vetoed it, but neiver thelless the mints are already at work under orders of Secrctare Carlisle coining Ihal, sei.gniora-ge. Some dermocratic newspapers whlicl, wTlih party meiasiur-es are con cerned., have no regard for facts, deny that. Hecretary Carlisle has given orders to resume the coinage of silver dollars, Speaking the other c day one of these said that this coillag was "ima iary, '' and it added: "If we must lhave lies, :. is hest to leave, their coinage to l.he ca lamity organs." This the papleraid in criticising at staltementl in thie New Yorklc Ihlerald concerning the work clone by the mintis in coining silver dollarcs. The' ig tcano e ,I tfel .pa,.--r is only equaled by is audacity. Sec retary Carlisle in answer ti( resolui tion of the senate a. few days ago sent a nmessage to. that body giving thei amount of coinage of silver dollars anid the work now being done at New Orleans and ani Flranc.isco iundeir iis orders in coining the alleged seig ni orage. There is no room for giubt on this subject, as tile order was made sonic time ago and the facts were print ed at the time. So that the sieguioriage is -now ihing coined, notwithstandbig the president's veto of the bill passed by the hltuse on thalt subjg..t, . One measure is al tlice. democrats oave accomplislhed, in thCe way of, li iancial legislation. They repealed, lhe purcleihsing clause of tlhe Shermai n let, but nothilng else lis Iaeen clone, except the passage of an iniconse jucutal bill to make greenbacks tax hIl. ITills have been passed to admib Utah, Arizona and New Mexico as states. These, however, will not come in until tile latter part of next year. One of the great, democratic campaign cries in 189(1 was leveled against the action of the republicans in providing for. the admission of NoR~th and Sout!lh taikota and W'ash. ingtou and Montalni as states.. Now. the democrats have takein ill Arizona, which is a second Nevada. It is a sage brush countr'v, where the popu lation has actually decreased in the last few years and the assessed value of the taxable property has decreased over $10,000,000. New Mexico is largely mnad,i up of illiterates. Utah has sullicient population, but it has been kept back heretolore because of the cour~e of the Mormons in oppos ing the federal.goverumient. These three ,territories are now. to be. ad mitted because it is thought thivy will elect democratic senators. Ok laomlna, which has a population four tiUles as large as Arizoina, and is twenty times better liltted for state hood, is kept out because it scnds it republican delegate to congress. What other measures have been passed ty this eoungress? None of a.iy iidpoit nice.. A bill to make the first Mondayv in September a legal holilidai, ;,ilMich conilic.ts with the laws of Plcinlsyln!lia and other states on tlhe same subject,, hais become ait law. All bills for the beneiit of the veterans, with. few (::ceptions, have been prompi;ly killdl, notwitlistand ing the outrageous coaurso of the pen sion otlice in depriving old veterans of their rights unde.r', the law.. Six deficienxy bills ivere passed, and the way has been opened for theli. assage of a similar number of defleiency bills at the.next session. No iptpro priativns have been made for l)uiAic improvements ezeepting in the ri;er, and harbQr bil, Not a dollar has. been. appropriated:for the fort her in crease of tlte navy. : Needed public buildings: are un provided for. The, New York np praiser's warehouse, whichl, is part way up,; capnot. be finished because the-appropriation has not baqn .mad'e to carry it up to the desired height. The rickety old public printing office in Washington, which endangers the lives of 3,000. employes, and "Which i has been condemned, will continue I to be used because this democratic I congress has refused to provide for a new building. The Chicaigo post office, which is tumbling down to such rlpr extent that the federal judges r-efusqd to remain longer in the building, will, go. yvit!otit evqn ordi nary, rIpairs b.*eause. t4i}s.dcemp cratic congress is,.eking cl}eqap.qr~idit for so-callhd economy. That is the measure.of,.thework of the first democratic congress since the war. The democrats iave a majority of nearly a hundred. il tlhe house, and have a cl.rx w.orlkig t.. jority without the populists in the senate, and.hare all iranches of. the executive, department-anc~ that is their, record. If any honest hember ,of thie party can feel proud.ol such a record of "perfidy and; dishonor," then that man miu.st: he peculiarly constituted. T}II D,.IOtOicu rIc .pQ. Theq Helena Independent4 congrat ulit.es its party by saying the popu lists are drawing hearily from. the republicans. Wel:l, not in the,. line of candidates for office. When it comes to that:, old denmcracy always getsts i.s hand in. For. congress it nominated that old line democrat, 1ob Smith. That was a nice piece ,of line Italian handiwork on the part of the democratic party. The democrats flopped over and have in nearly every case gained control of the populist party. It is the same old democracy in the guise of work ingmen. In Cascade county the re publican populists didn't get a sniff. The ticket is democratic from root to branch. Only one man who had been a straight republican out of nineteen or twenty office seekers got :L norinatkon. This shows shrewd work on the lar., of; depocrgats. We admit it. .ut let no. onebedeceived as to the pop.ulist ticket in Montana,. It is tlie same old democracy with a new name.-Great. Falls Leader. WnT'r oughte to recommend the people's party 1o the people is the ldearLl of lawyers in it. It is an hon est party or this productive class of our fellow citizens would be breaking their necks to get1 into it.-Silverite. Let' ssee. The Silverite ih pub lished in Missoula, and the three leading members of the populist par t.y there are George W. Reeves, liar ry I). Moore and P. Z. Prince, all lawyers. And then the popUtists in their state convention at Deer Lodge had a chance to nominate for con gress a man of the people, Mr..O'Ker, of Marysville, but instead.pltiup J30! Smith, a lawyer, and a former seeker for democratic favors. ()ri'TSTD1 f (l Wyo.oming, Idaho and Californi:a, will any of the republican nll'g ns ti rlUfI Innr anltlo ler t itate irn whidi the republicans have Come out, squarely for free coinage., tile sort of free coinage that I he silver men de rmand.-Ilutte Miner. The republlcan state convention of l)eleware was in session last week. The platform favors binletathsm, a gold and silver currency, equalized by conditions fixed by national agree ment, andl declares that full natlional prosperity will not be restored until silver is restored to its full dehbt-pay ing basis. TErarE being sormie doubt in the minds of the county coamuissipuers. as to whether the county seat elee tion wouid be legal at this tirme, they met here yesterday to determine the question. Attorney General Hlaskell was here from Helena, and with his assistance the board came to the conclusion that the election would be perfectly legal, and so the election goes. So the two towns will fight out the question cn t.ne: 6th of No vember. There will be some tall' rustling on both sides, but we hope it will be a fair fight and no hard feelings engendered. EDITORIAL- COH.IENT, Address all letters and: telggrsnrms of congratulation to the prgsident of the sugar trust.-Omaha Bee,. (de.l.) Up to date the democrats have not trottted out that long promised era o.f unrivaled prosperity anld $1.25 wheat.. Perhaps the president went to Gray Gables to learn whether his family wonld disown him if he signed the tairif bill. The sugfiar trust put $500,000 into tihe democratic slot, and will take out $40,000,000.-St. . ouis Globe Democrat. (rep.) From this time forth democratic platforms will have to be- accompa nied by affidavits and bonds for the fulfillment of their promises. The democratic congress has made -a mess of it-an unsavory dish.

And that's what he's done. A good ticket for democracy in 180j would be: For president, Ilen rIl1avgmeyer, of the sugar trust; fpr vice president, J. D. RIockfeUeer, of the Standard Oil monopoly. Whpn the democrats in such states as.Tqxas, Florida, Missouri, Wyoming and, California absolutely refuse to favorthe free coinage of silver what is to,he expected of the party in the eqat. If the democratic party could get a certificate of nervous prostration from Captain Devery's doctor Ind consequently have the Novcgcbqr elections postponed the experiment might be well worth trying.--Brook lyn Eagle. (dem.) We have no means of confirming the report that President Cleveland and Secretary Carlisle are drifting apart, but MIr.

If progress in an industrSial way or growth in population Itas rot met expectation, the fault is. not with Montana or her people: think what the state has had to face in the way of hostile legistlation at trhe national capital.-Standard. The letter of Mir. Clevelahld in which he clutracterizes a .suryender by the house as "party pertlidy, and party dishonor," is given oiour first page. Read it carefully .Iu.!! see to what tldepths of infamy the.dclpecrat ic party has snrk. according tPo. its chief exemplar. The St. Louis Star,, sayings' sug gests that adjournment day at Wash ington be made a day of general thanksgiving. Why not make the day that Grover signs the bill of "par to perfidy and dishonor" one of na tional humiliation, fasting and prayer? Somue of the Popiltst papers of this state in their efforts to catch the eyes of the strikers have been dan gerously near the line of anarchy. So near, indeed. that many loyal, patri otic people of this state will shun populism as a permarnency.--lozeman Chronicle. (demn.) Three things followed promptly the passage of the tariff bill: The first was the advance in the price of sugar; the second the closing of the potteries at Trenton. and. BaT..imore, and,the, thi"rd the. chorus of exulta-. tion over the fIre gift otiour-market to Canadian lumbermen. The chickens of the hemaphrodite democratic congress are already com ing home to roost. E.:.i the hide bound democracy or Texas is kicking.

Mr.. Mol. 'inlhi will take with him in whiatever t enterplrie he may engage, the best wishles.of his legions of friends among the, fllowcraft of the state." To all of which the REPUBLICAN heartily subscribes. Abraham Lincoln's first speech on tle .t.riff question was short and to thei.poipnt. He said that he did not pretend to be Tearned in political econorry,. but lie thought lie knew enoughl to know that "when an Am-. erican:paid $20 to an English manu facturer for steel America had the steel and England had the $20. Buul when he paid $20 -for steel to an nAmerican manufacturer America.had both the steel and the $20." That was the sumn of the tariff, question. as he viewed it. r Referring t0 the.claims.otf the pop uiists for suppolrt in the west, Mr. Watson,, of: Walkerville, said at a meeting of thle Butte republican clih, Sthat lie couFli npt see ihow they could claim, to be consistent friends of sil ive :\when their platform advocated the ceee-coinage of the white metal and one of their gods in congress. Jerry Simpson, had introduced, a bill calling, for the retirtement at a: given time of all silver, as well as gold. their place to be taken by paper money. The populists, he said, would advo cate anything to catch a vote. The principal industry of Warren and Morris counties, N. J., is iron ore. The democrats are denouncing Congressman Cornish (denm.) for vot ing for free iron with upwardl of 3,000 operatives in two counties actually ,starving to death. In Warren county the iron workers are keeping the grim wolf, hulnger. fromn their doors by picking berries on the mountains and selling them in the cities. Only a few have obtained work among, the farmners, and several thousaind men. women and children are praying each d;say for bread. Firee iron means the l perrmalionb closing of the iron mines in the county. A year ago the New York Times, then a mugwump paper, was sold for a million dollars.. It came out as a Cleveland organ and yesterday it was sold to a Chicago man for $250,000.. lie will make a republican paler of it and next year it will be worth two million dollars, if honestly conducted. let us hope. The fact is, however, that the fall in valuesresultiug from the contraction of the currency, has affected newspaper property as great ly as anything else. The very policy that the Times has advocated has re duced its value 75 per cent. It is a conspicuous illustration of the fact that the restoration which Cleveland promised would come from the repeal of the Sherman act never cname.--In ter -Mountain. The passage of the senate bill by tse house is. the most disgraceful chapter in American history. The position heretofore assumed by the house is conceded to be right, even by the senate, and is now surren dered to some person whose identity even is concealed. There is no evi dence that the senate would not have agreed on a compromise. In the cau cus Mr. Wilson was asked to name the men who were holding up the American congress, but he declined to do so. We have therefore surren dered to a rumor, the source of which cannot be traced. The walls of Jer ico falling lxbfore a blast of wind yielded to a force much more tangi ble than that which sent the house of representatives skurrying into an ab ject, cowardly,.self-confessed betray -al of the principles which they p1)o fess.-llourke Cochran, democratic representative from New York.
