THE LUMP CITY MINER: LUMP CITY, MONTANA. DANCE AND 1H DAM% So thinks the Rev. T. V. Moore who reads a curtain lecture to Helena school 'Wants. Celebration of the Battle of Sedan. — Beer Flows in Helena. Parties who thought they had a string on the Capitol, see the error ot their way, and now wink the other eye. Rev. Moore, the eminent Presbyterian divine of Helena, has delivered a stir- ring addrese on the NU') jeCt of dancing it was stirring beeaumi it hati stirred up the question until it fairly bubbles like a pot of new soft soap Over a col) tire. It happened that at a teachers' re- ception, held in the High School build- ing, dancing was indulged in, and Rev. Moore is after the man who hired the tiddler. The pastor is pretty nearly eorrect in saying that. a High School building is no place in which to hold a dance; but in decrying the evils of dancing he waxes very fresh. He states that from his own experience he real- izes the evils that grow out of dancing, especially the round dances, as he danc- ed when a young man. But from the way he nays he felt after dancing it is evident he did not, like Moses, dance before the Lord. Most men who (lattice have not been afflicted with evil result iind if Rev. Moore felt that way it is a good thing he iluit dancing just when he did, and it is equally a good thing when men of such propensities keep out eoeiety altogether, as nature didn't in- tend them to look upon the sacred form or woman. No doubt the reverend gentle man will give a discourse on the nude in art, if the plaster of paris overcoat should happen to fall off the figure of George Washington that now urn/talents the courthouse in Helena. The preacher is going to protect the young if he has to pound his pulpit theeadbare. Mr. Moore is right in saying that dances should not be held in the achool house, but he shoote his eloquence up the wrong flume when he infers that the ladies and gentlemen w he attend respectable dances are surrounded by bad influences. As a rule the dancing public are just as moral ne the church going public—just as good fat hers and mothers. The Battle of Sedan was celebrated in Helena in great style. A man who evidently saw double informs us that 25 barrels of beer were used up and 1500 drunks placed to their credit. They were dancing all day and of course could use a good many more hops than otherwise and the chances are that the fellow who stew double ornamented a gutter early in the action. The Germans uf Helena are a fine class of people and all hands were glad to see them celebrate the Battle of Sedan, except the French, who can't see where the fun comes in. Nick Keaaler'e beer will make a man eelebrate anything after a glees or two has penetrated his vitals. At last the Capitol question is settled and the million dollar building will be erected on what is called the Winne Site on the East side of town. It was a hard struggle in which the four hundred and the dudes were done up by the people. The common people came to the front and the pressure was too great for the aristocrats to overcome. The capitol hill gang squirmed like a worm on a rusty fish-hook but notwithstanding their methods they had to take their medicine. Talcott stood up and voted like a man, despite the temptations that assailed him. The Capitol hill fellows tried to get the matter reconsidered and offered every inducement, but the men who voted for the Winne site stood firm and the people approve. 'EMIT HELENA SMF.LTER. The following is a brief account of the history and what has been accomplished at the East Helena smelter since the date of its organization: The annual election of the Helena & Livingston Mining & Reduction oompany was held last week and three new di- rectore were eletted. They were Thom - use A. Marlow, president of the Montana National bank, Henry Klein, of the firm of Gans A K lain, and Henry Seligman, of New York. Two of the former direct- ors retired to give place to the newly eleeted otlicere, whoeei intereete in the company are large, and who have not been represented before in the directory. The new officers are: e. T. Banner, president; John T. Murphy, vice presi- dent; A. J. Seligman, treasures; O. R. Allen, secretary, anti the following, who, with the other (Arlen', oorn pose the di- rectory: A. M }loiter. Henry Seligman, M. Parcben, Henry Klein and T .1. Marlow 'Flo) exteneive and far r•nohing opera lions of the liedena t Livingston Min tng ,t Railitot ton ttont panv are not fully epprooiatad all those who are familiar with the oxist.‘nce f the company It was tinder it. tilt -Potion that the smelter at. East Helena wan Guilt, at a (Neat of I ween eue),(1' sod ;1) 0 .1 00 T1, and coal plant near Livingston, which was built and is controlled by the com- pany, ia valued at $750,000, and ia the Wes:it in the State. The Alta mule, at Corbin, with its concentrator and more than seven miles of interior workings, represents an outlay ot between $500,000 and $700900. In addition to that the guiai oompany tive years ago °tumuli dated its interests with those of ex - Mayor Hewitt, of New York, and others who owned the Great Falls smelter and the refinery at Chicago. The Wickes smelter is a part of the same company's property'. The consolidation of the smel- ter properties was affected without in- cluding the coal and coke workings near Livingston. The combined value of tlie interests represented by the company will exceed $:3,000,000. The smelting works are third in the United States in magnitude, that at East Helena having paid out during its terni of existence from $300,- 000 to $i)00,000 monthly, and the smelter at Great Falls and the refinery at Chi- cago have been doing there share, too. The Alta mine was the first to be oper- ated entirely by electricity in the United States. The (mid mine and coke works are shut down temporarily, owing to a mis- understanding between the eastern and local interests, but it is believed that af- fairs will be adjusted at the next meet ing of the board of directors, and that they will resume on their former basis. A London cablegram reoorts that in its financial article the \London Times\ in discussing the possible consequence of an international bimetallic agree- ment says: Not France, whose monetary position is se- cure, but America, aould be the urat to take advantage. slit mild we be foolish enough to enter into sod' an agreement America ia the only g reat country which would really gain by the agreement. She would try to dispose of her silver here for gold. But the mere hint that we would enter into an international bimetallic agreement would cause such a scramble for gold that it is very doubtful if any would be left In the Bank of England by the time the agree- ment W/18 signed.\ This is pure neeasense, even if it does come from the \Thunderer.\ - It 're- sembles the dire predictions made when this country resumed specie payments after the war. Many declared then that every one would scramble for the gold the govern ment had provided, but events showed that no one wanted it. The ability to get gold for paper simply rendered the paper an good as gold, and then paper was preferred. The use of silver i not only absolutely necessary, it is preferred in all poor countries, and this use will not be lessened anywhere, but rather increased. Moreover, it would be very easy, in an international agree- ment for bimetallism, to provide that the governments entering it should con- tinue to hold not leas than a certain pro- portion of their money in silver. This would be no hardship, for silver would be everywhere as good as gold at the ratio adopted. One argument that apreial England in favor of bimetallism is the fact that by making the money of the silver basis countries as good as that of England it would take away the advan- tage they now poesoss over British nian- ufacturers in Paying their wages in de- preciated money. The adoption of universal binietallism would be equiva- lent y an advance in usages in the silver basis countries and would thus inure to the benefit of the exporting gold basis oountries. The adoption of universal bimetallism under a permanent inter- national monetary commission or clear- ing house would benefit all countries bUt would be of greater advantage to England than to any other. \The Times\ may dismiss its groundless fear, there would be no sale of American goy - eminent silver for British gold under in- ternational bimetallism. The cause of international bime‘tallism is making satisfactory progress in Great Britain -the only country that stands in the way of its prompt adoption -and for this progress the British Bimetallic League is to be thanked.
