Make it your business to answer satIsfactorily the above questions before you attoend to any form of business today. The books will close at I0 o'olock to-night, so that your last chance is offered during the few remaining hours. There are doubtless many good citizens in Helena who have neglected this matter.

D)o not dlolay it another niinute if you wish to vote for Holena for the capital. It is important! Do not delay! Evze day brings rumors that Blaine will take the stump, but the campaign is fast drawing to a close. THIe: withdrawal of Gen. Sickles will not injure the democratio party to any serious extent in New York state. IHe was a good soldier, but he has never been anything better than a cheap politioal mountebank since the war.

Do not throw away any complimentary votes in this capital contest. Do not let b- sentiment control your Ta Tn water thrown by the Inter Mounw taui upon Butte's ambitions for the capital is so cold that it freezes before reaching the ground. Trna capital fight is one that should be discussed without passion or personal Very well. Why haven't you discussed it that way? Tnm. republicans in this state appear to think that the people's party has no 1 right to exist under the laws of the country.

They should get Sanders to i draw up an indictment. Indeed he would not ask for a pleasanter recreation until he retires from the United States senate. is TH, esteemed Anaconda Standard dew risively suggests a miniature Helena cracker to place along with the Anaconda copper button. The suggestion is good. The Helena cracker factory will be running day and night when the Anaconda copper works have passed into a reminiscence.

TaP esteemed Journal's statement that the wool issue is ignore as much as possible by the democratic press is r. really quite refreshing. Some time ago the Journal said the weather was too warm for a wool discussion. The temperature around its corner of the street seems to have undergone no change since that time. CONGonESMAN OILsON explodes McKinley's tariff bubbles quite as fast as the great champion of monopoly can invent them.

lie tells an incident which should interest the thousands of young men in this country who enjoy the healthy and invigorating use of a bicycle. He says: "A leading chant of New York told me that, having a fancy for a bicycle, he applied, through a friend, to the manufacturer of a widely used wheel to find out if he made any discounts to purchasers direct from the factory. The manufacturer replied with emphasis that he had but one price for his wheels and that no man could buy them at lees than that price, which was $135. Not long afterward the New York gentleman, being in London, learned from the newspapers that the manufacturer was also in the city. Surmising that be was there for trade purposes he again got a friend to ask him what he would charge for a bicycle delivered in London.

The manufacturer promptly replied that he would deliver his wheels in London, freight paid, at 25 per cent discount from his home price. "In other words," said lihe, "I will sell you a bicycle, delivered in London, for £20," which is $98. One hundred and thirty five dollars to every American buyer of his bicycle, and $98 to every 3. English buyer. Itf the foreigner, as Major McKinley says, pays the tax, he seems to save a great deal of money by doing so." Oria esteemed friend, the Western Democrat, sends this encouraging news to Helena: "The fight for the capital is growing hot among the aspirants for Its permanent location.

In the meanwhile the people af Missoula are doing the heavy looking on and solid thinking." That is right. If all the voters in Montana will think seriously concerning this capital question, Helena will win in the first round. The voters who have the interest of the state at heart, who will vote for their own interests, throw aside prejudices and support the best town for the capital are invited to study IIelena's ad. vr.tages from any point of view. Try and think of one town that presents better claims.

Look the field over carefully. 1Do not allow yourself to be intiuenced by aluminum or copper emblems but analyze the results of your observation. Is there a town more centrally located than Helena; one that offers more oplportunities for the transaction of busines of all sorts; that possesses nmore colnforts of life, or that is better adapted for the capital so far as your poersouul interests are concerned? things have been told to the voters of this state very often, but they cover tie situation in a nutshell and certainly no other town or city in Montana can present the same offers. If there are any, let them speak up. A ROADI TO I)ILLON.

The movement to build a railroad from ielena to I)illon, as reported in STlE: INiEItENiiVNTi yesterday, aroused great entllusiasRm aaiong ourl business Into. It has Ieon startedl with an earnestness and enthusiasml that means Ssliccess. T'lime project has lbeen under consider- ation ia long tune. Concmerning the feaSsibihity of the route and(l cheapness construction theire can be no possible lquestion. imatters have heen Sfully daotrminied by competent engineers iil the pasilt.

Partial surveys were ililade t- somne years ago thie Inion 'Pacilie company, and they would have built the Sroadl before this hadl it not been for time long series of dilliculties among their st'ckhlolders. 5 As was thoroughly shown in this pa, per yesterday thie roadl woul tap a mnirns velously rich miining country which is t- greatly in needl of communication. It i would also go through several of the richest and imost prosperous agriciulltural sections in Montana in the Iuby and Jefferson vldleys. A market would thus be brought for tile products of these sections anil the people woiuld be brought in closer communiication with Helena, which is now and will be the Srailway center of the state. The baneill tits which would be dlerived are known iy to be sulticient to guarantee profits from leI the investments from the start.

sr i Helena capitalists have quietly been considering this project top a get. The' appointment of a committee b. the Board of Trade eveaing visit the people along the route ot the proposed road, look up -a right: oft way and incorporate is the beginning oa a railroad that will be built. A WARNING TO OAPIrAL DATIeL The Anaconda capital managers who started in to drive all other candidates out of the race seemed to have run up against several very annoying snags. They sent a postal card down to the citizens of Deer Lodge ordering them to retire their beautiful and prosperous city without delay.

But the people could not see the point, and whea they hesitated they were given to understand that they might be "hurt" in the future. A hint was diopped that unless they voted for the town with the curfew bell their county seat would be removed. It appears, however, that there is more than one town in Deer Lodge county, and that Deer Lodge city is not a suburb of Anaconda. It is populated by independent men and women who believe in the old motto of "live and let live." They were not to be clubbed, bulldozed or threatened, and their city will remain in the race and will probably exist as long in Montana as the upper and lower works at Anaconda. It also appears that the little smelter city's attempt to pull big and proseperous Butte off the track has likewise failed.

For some strange reason the citizens of the greatest camp are decidedly chilly toward the advancetnents of the Anaconda promoters. They seem to agree with the esteemed Minor of that city when it says that "Butte is in the race to stay until the close of the polls on election day." The Anaconda managers are suffering from a combination of fright and cranial enlargement. They must not think that capital candidates can be bluffed out of thie contest at the rate of two at a time. If this idea should enlarge in their visior it would perhaps be just as well to warn the people of the country at large. There may be an effort started to remove the national capital from Washington to Anaconda.

RICKARDS STILL APOLOGIZING. It is quite time for Lieut. Gov. Rickards to stop telling the people that the supreme court of the United States endorsed his disgraceful ruling, when ii decided that the house of representatives had the right to make its own rules. Nobody ever endorsed that wretched dictum of Rickards except the amen who profited by it, and certain nar row minded and ignorant people wlo never understood the situation.

When Czar Reed made his ruling. which was infamous enough, he wer speaker of a regularly organized and deliberative body operating under rules This ruling, made some time after thr session had commenced, was endorseo by the republican majority in the house and the republican committee on rules. The supreme court simply decided that it was entirely proper for the body aftei organization to transact business itr own way. But it was entirely different in the case of Rickards. Here were sixteer men, meeting together every day, but with no majority, for there were eight republicans and eight democrats.

Rickards was the presiding efficer, by virtue of popular election, over thin body. There were no rules and no miijority to adopt his decision, for wihicl, there was absolutely no precedent. Until a code of rules had been establisheu and adopted by the senate there waf not even a semblance of justice or decency in his assumption that he could go behind the roll call to determini what senators were present and the ones who were not. Reed's ruling wa: accepted by the majority of a regularly organized body, IRickards' was not. It was simply a disgraceful and inexcusable means adopted to give to Sanders and Power the form of an illegal election to the United States senate.

l. is is the difference between theRickards and Iteed rulings. The longer Mr. lickards attempts to conceal this andt the longer his apologizing continues, the greater will be the majority for Mr. Collins.

CAPI'TAL C)OMMENT. We believe that the majority of the people of Gireat Falls realize that her candidacy in the capital contest cannot result in any material benefit, and may even have an injurious effect upon local interests by assisting the west side wire pullers to draw the oapital location away from the town best adapted for Benton River Preas. Helena is endowed with the most conesummate gall that ever was given to a commounity, and if it could be converted into votes they would take the eapital and every other state institution at one Ireview. As a matter of fact Great Falls Is aoknowledged by the prominent leaders in Helena to be the strongest candidate arrayed against them. They fear now lee Helena shoulrd be left out of the race altogether, and that she should not get even the second Herald.

rays 'IasI Irci)eIrENrIrNT: "T'he Great Falls T'ribune in itator mstaken in its view that Helena will never see anything but an effigy of Fort Harrison. It will be built to a certainty thouih it will hbe necessary to wait until the sheoish of grabbers are disAnosed of." We are truly glad that the fort will sometime materiahze. The old town will need something to console her when the capriti is located at Great Fallsa Tl'rbune. Boalder has retired from the capital race. It is better to retire than to be retired.M issoulian.

Now, if oButte wants the capital, let every man rut his shoulder to the wheel and Hlutte can have it. But it can never be eotten by indulging asupicion of every other mana by makina unfounded charges of Mountain. Helena is trying to persuade herself that the capital fght is now between the City anrd Ancounda, and that no other eity will come within thousand of votes of getting second place. Helena has been subalating on an exclusive cracker diet for the last few weeks, and she le in evident noed of brain food. 8ihe should eat Chroniole.
