W ashington , Oct. 6—In the sen ate to day Blackburn of Kentucky substituted an amendment to t.h° bill repealing the silver purchas ing clause of the act of 1890. It strikes out Voorhees’ substitute, leaving the bill as it passed the house and/ then provides for the free coinage o f silver of American production. The secretary of the treasury is authorized on the first day of each month' to establish seignorage, to be charged lor the following month, which is to be vthe difference between the market a y . 553. „ chorage off Bay Ridge. It was a . magnificent contest from a naval point of view, and demonstrated, 4 for the. day at least, the superiorly • of the center boarder over the cut ter, as well as the superior yachts- manship of the men who handled the English boat. One thing only was lacking, and that was wind. Never more than a light wind pre vailed, and some times it was scarcely more than a puff. Great Northern Accident. The east bound passenger oh the Great Northern road struck .a rock slide near Columbia Falls on Saturday, killing Engineer M. E. . Lauer and slightly injuring Fire-’ man M. F. McMillan. Late rains loosened the dirt and rocks from the mountains and they came - down on the track. The train was going around a sharp curve. The engine was thrown lengthwise across the track, and the baggage car left the rails. Engineer Lauer was one of the best known and most popular men on the line. A Swift. Steamer. minted value after, coinage. This seignorage is not to be coined, but is to be sold by the secretary of the treasury for gold, to be used for the purpose of maintaining the parify of gold and silver.

The only direction in which Moldanians have shown much ac tivity and energy is in the mining and cattle industries. To promote these they have gone to New' York, Boston and London to form , companies, to sell stock and invite capital. Some of these projects have failed; but many have been very successfdl. While citizens of Montana have been abroad o n . these schemes they have met with men from Colorado, Utah, New* Mexico and California engaged in selling bonds of irrigation com panies. What has been the result? In the first place as much more rapid growth in pupulation than Montana. In the second place the establishing of those states, and territories on an enduring basis'of agriculture — the most ce ’tain sourpe of wealth. Colorado farms already yield double the wealth annually of Colorado mines arid their production will, continue when there are no more mines. Think of the prodigious wealth of Montana when we add to the fifty' millions of annual products from her mine* an equal or greater yield from our farms! When are Montana brains and: Montana energy going to bring: thi« coridi- I about? ,
