financial trouble which should not ex

averted by the governmont exercising
the prerogative of redeeming out

Our Hllvcrlsts will, of course, and as
heretofore.lndlgnantly exclaim that it
is unworthy of us as a great and free
people to depend or wait on England,
or on the nations of Europe together.
They say we can "go It alone." So we
can; but the result will simply bo los,
of the gold standard and change to the
silver standard. The Republican party
of the United States, as the champion
of sound money, Is under the necessity
of preparing Itself to light for the
gold standard as against the silver
standard, without the device, expedi
ent, subterfuge or mask of Interna

Is It not truo that we arc a creditor

It seems as though wo have never
had money enough to do business on
a cash basis. Wo have been com
piled to do business on credit. The
merchant buys of tho wholesale house
on credit. Ho bells to his customers
on credit. The wholesale house buys
or tho manufacturer on credit. Tho
volume of money docs not seem to have
been aa largo lis tho volume of busi
ness as 05 per cent of our business Is
dono on credit.
Tho total Indebtedness of our coun
try in 187a was about six thousand mil
lions. In 1800 thohc debts readied
thirty thousand millions, and Impar
tial estimates put It still higher. Tho
total assessed value or real and per
sonal property In the United States In
1800 wuh little over 24,000 millions.

supply of pure rich blood and plenty of

covery" gives them. It is a blood-maker.
It gives the blood making functions
power to produce a large quantity of the
nourishing red corpuscles which make
healthy l(fttvig blood. This stops the

Ranker C'orbelt says that It would

lie seems to think the perpetuity of

national banks. The question lias
been disposed of.
In the language of Wm. Jennings
Bryan the fight has Just begun, and
there Is no tombstone big enough to
bury a righteous cause.
Sliver will yet lay aside Its grave
clothes and go forth to bless man
kind In the future, as It has In the
past. The united silver forces made
a grand light and corporate power
may as well understand now that
the six millions or people who voted
ror Rryan and Tree silver will not be
downed.
When wc come to sum up the organ
ized opposition we find that Mr.
Rryan, backed by nothing but the
poor, patriotic sons or America, had
to fight against the most tremendous
odds of any man who was ever a can
didate for the presidency.
Let Topulists, free sllyer Demo
crats and free silver Republicans
Join hands and close up the ranks and
we will yet free America rrom the

DO YOU VANT REFORMS?
All who want any reforms should
labor U, defeat Scott's candidates
and the election of any man he can
control ns speaker of the house.
Scott'scontrol of the legislature means
legislation ror cliques and machines'
but none ror the people.
A speaker or the house who Is not
under his control should be elected
All citizens who love their state and
want to see rerorm In our primary
election laws, should oppose a Scott
organization or the hotiso or senate.
Mr. Scott is an Intelligent and able
man, but his political methods are for
the purpose of centralizing power in
his own hands.
Tub Jouunai. Is not tho adviser or
the Republican party, or or any party,
but It wants good legislation, aboli
tion or commissions, and government
In tho hands or the peoplo instead or
professional bosses. No man can up
hold Mr. Scott's methods and know
the result of those methods und say
they are in tho Interest of the Repub
lican party or the people.

IlHLBNA,Mont.,Jan 7.-The leglsla-
live assembly of Montana metatnoon
Monday. Hon. Robert R. Smith, i
I slon, took the oath ofoluce as gover-
inor. Hi message to tne legistm-.
I ,-nr,.r.ris various reductions in
state expenditures, the curtailment of
ofllccs and salaries and suggeUions
alonn the line or economical reforms,
Retiring Governor Rlckards leaves di
rectly ror California to spend the win
ter with his family at Pacific Grove
The inaugural address of Governor
Smith was devoted almost wholly to
state omcers. He said that the change
of political parties In the state does
not meananarchy.repudlatlon nor uie
enactment of visclous and hostile leg
islatlon, and that hasty, ill-advised or
radical laws hostile to any Interest or
persons are not contemplated by his
administration. lie calls attention
to the depressed conditions of bus!
ncss and says the expenses of the
state, county and city government
must be reduced.
The following arc some of the rec
ommendations made by the governor:
Taxation of gross receipts of Insur
ance companies less loses.
A tax on corporations, so worded
that they cannot evade the corpora
tion fee by subsequently increasing
the capitalization.
A gradual inheritance tax.
Abolishing the bureau of agricul
ture, labor and industry, leavirjg the
collectlon-of statistics to county as
sessors. Reducing salaries in the land de
partment of the state.
Abolishing thcoOlce of city treas
urer. Repealing mlleace law, reducing
the cost of the national guard of the
state in the matter of encampments
and armory rents.
Taking oft the bounty on coyotes.
That the land grant be bonded not
to exceed $300,000 at present ror build
Itit: the state capitol.
That convicts be set to work on
Irrigation plants and canals to re
claim I he million acres of arid land
under the Carey act.
The initiative and referendum and
proportional representation are rec
ommended as subjects for a constitu
tional amendment.
NOT A PROPHET.
Harvey Scott now says the Repub
lican party must take up the tight for
the gold standard as against the sil
ver standard If it would make this
country prosperous.
Ry tho way he Is not exactly a
prophet. Ho said In 1802, repeal the
mortage tax law and times will bo
good In Oregon, money will be cheap
and Interest low. It was done. Have
we got what was promised V
Scott said In 1804; " repeal the Sher
man law, stop coining silver and that
will make tunes good and restore con-
tldonco nud make mouey plenty." It
was dono. Ilnvo wo got any ootier
money, or more of It, or any bolter
times as a result?
Ho said In 1800 "elect McKinley,
establish the gold standard, and that
will make good times and restore pros
perity." It was douo. No one can
tell what times will bo utter March
4th, but so far his prophecies have
been a remarkable series of failures.
What next will he promle ?
