UNANIMOUS CORRUPTION.

We recently stated that ''therc never
was a government with but one politi-
cal party that did not become tyranny;
never a legislative body so constituted
that was not corrupt" AS a proof of our
assertion we referred TO the last Demo-
cratic legislature. Upon seeing this the
Independent Immediately becomes preg-
nant with an idea and thus delivers
itself:
Cant you enlarge the field of your
reference and fitly apply it TO the whole
of Uncle Sans domains as well as to
Montana Ever since Montana has been
governed by Democrats the L. =. Gov
eminent has been solely at the will and
under the power Of the Republican par
ty. The editor Of the Post has just one
way to crawl out" from the dilemma in
which his own proposition places him,
and that is to declare the Government
of the u. :. an exception to this "gen-
eral rule" Will he do it,
He will not, for having been placed in
no dilemma he has no occasion 10 crawl
out. Our remark fifty applies to the
whole of Uncle Sans domains without
any enlargement. The Government OF
the United States has more than one
political party. and always will have.
Congress the Legislative body of the
Union, also showed Conclusively at the
impeachment trial that il contained
more than one party. of course one par
ty or the other must be in power, but il
is only such unopposed power as that
possessed by the last Montana legisla-
ture which insures corruption. The In
dependent should put on its glasses, and
whereof it speaks, and not rely for ecldt
either upon misinterprctation or sresf-
toe pimple' similies.

CONTEMPT.

The Gazette as self appointed prose
cutiEg attorney, arraigns the Republi-
can party before the court OF its readers,
for contempt of the people, basing its
charges upon the fact that the Legisla-
ture of Alabama is to appoint the Presi-
Dental electors, instead of having them
chosen by a popular vote. Although
it will be seen from our dispatches, to-
dav, that tine voice of the Legislature
was by no means unanimous upon this
point, and that, therefore, even If inn
polite, it is not chargeable upon the
Radicals" as "A party; still the GGz1ftH
cannot deny that the Legislature re-
fo-rod go lad perfect right to take this
action, even under the Constitution
as il was, tor it is expressly provided
that Each state shall appoint, 4" snch
manner as the legislature Hereor mag
direct, a number of electors" &c. and
had any Northern State chosen. under
this section, 10 change its rule in the
matter. our contemporary would have
thought nothing strange Of it. But be-
cause the manner of proceeding adop-
ted in Alabama, may conflict with the
peculiar electioneering schemes of its
+. h. X, and prevent the murders of
it's mobs; because il would render
powerless the threats of it's unrecon-
structed rebels, who would, as past exc
perience has shown us, attempt TO con-
troll popular ballot i'm the South by
intimidations and brute force. The Gu
Zette calls the rule adopted, a contempt
of the people. Yes, it is contempt, but
not of the people. IL is not only n con-
tempt, but defiance, of those who would
rule the South in the future, as they
have attempted to do in the past, by the
laws of the bowie knife and the revolver.
1t is contempt and defiance of those
who would make general election the
signal for the cowardly assault and Sc
cret murder of all who dared to vote
contrary TO the wishes of the "chivalry."
it is a contempt and defiance of those
red-handed traitors who would, by force.
place themselves ''at the head of Gov,
ernment as the 0s0sters of the people.
and not their servants" But for the
people, to those worthy the name, it is a
protection, enabling them, through their
Legislature, and without intimidation
or bloodshed, to chose such men for
Presidential electors as shall have ideas
in harmony with their own; such men
as shall cast their vote in accordance
with their will, for a ruler of the ma
tion.

MONTANA FRIDAY, AUGUST A/Se&

River. Belly River and Bow River form
a junction and flow into Lake Winnepeg
and thence their waters find their way
into Hudson Bay. Along the eastern
base of the main range, Capt. Mcclellan
found a secondary double range of rocky
and barren mountains, apparently high
or than the Rocky Mountains them
selves. The main range was heavily
timbered throughout its whole extent
Altogether the country was one which
is deserving gilmore attention than has
been bestowed upon il, and yet one
which cannot. at present, be thoroughly
explored by private enterprise. We are
glad TO learn that Capt. Mcclellan pro-
poses sending report of his expedition
to Gov Seymour OF British COluElbin,
and that lac has some grounds for hoping
that the Governor will sec fit to take
measures for a more thorough examina-
ton OF the country than any that has
yet been undertaken. Capt. Mcclellan
and the FIVE mountaineers who proved
most faithful TO him during his expedi-
ton and whose names have been pre-
viously given, propose returning 10 the
Bow River country this Fall and may,
probably pass the winter north of the
British line We cannot close this mar
rative without acknowledging the many
obligations which We are under to Capt.
Mcclellan for his kind rehearsal of every
incident connected with his trip, there's
by enabling US to give a report which
our readers can rely upon as perfectly
accurate and reliable. We have, before
now, seen mountaineers who could say
nothing more about n mountain than
that it was "tolerable high" or about a
river than that il ran very Gurus. -
We were, Therefore, the more pleased to
receives perfectly clear and minute re-
port from Capt McClellan's own lips
and have considered If of sufficient inn
portance to devote so much space in our
columns 10 it.
