CAUCUS LEGISLATION.


After the President had vetoed the
Army Appropriation bill the Demo
Gratis Of each house met in caucus to
determine what they would next do in
Congress and each caucus appointed a
committee to meet like committee Of
the other caucus to report the result Of
their deliberations to joint caucus to
be called by the joint committees. The
joint committees reported to the joint
caucus bill about the same as the
sixth section Of the vetoed bill except
that the word civil was left out, and
recommended it to be passed By both
houses without the army appropria-
ton and sent to the President. The
report was accepted and agreed
to by the joint caucus, and in
pursuance of this caucus legis-
lation, the bill entitled, TO prevent
military interference at elections, was
introduced in each house on Monday,
and referred to the Judiciary Commit
tees. On Tuesday the Judiciary Com
mittees reported the bill to their res
pectiye houses--in the House without
amendment, and in the Senate with
two amendments. The House passed
the bill without amendment by yeas
124 and nays 90. The bill was then
sent to the Senate, and the President
pro tenn. announced the House bill to
prevent military interference at the
polls, and it was read the first time.
Mr.. Edmunds said that,as the measure
was very important, he must object to
a second reading of the bill to-day with
a view to its reference to committee.
The bill therefore went over.
This was on Tuesday and
is the last heard from the bill as we
write Wednesday forenoon. The eau
Gus programme is for this bill to be
passed before the Legislative, Ececu-
tive, and Judicial appropriation bill,
which has been for some time before
the Senate, is passed, and before the
House passes the Army appropriation
bill. So the present legislation of Con-
gresS is merely carrying out Demo-
cratic caucus legislation. But after
being passed by the Senate, the bill,
to become q law, must be signed by
the President, or remain in his hands
ten days without being returned to
the House. There is a difference of
opinion whether the President will
veto the bill: The Republicans of
Congress generally believe he will,
but report comes that the President
sees nothing Objectionable in the bill
and that If not changed he will sign it,
and that the cabinet are unit In IA
yorJof his signing it.

adoption of measures in the Legislature,
and we regret that the absence of our en-
graver prevents their appearance in this
issue. On interesting picture represents
the position Of some members ON the coun-
ty relief bill. A map is drawn showing riy-
ers with fine bridges over them; a county
seat and a courthouse. showing that the
enormous debt was incurred in making these
improvements. The county is surrounded
by a number of anxious friends, who want
to take a part. First, they look in an awe
struck manner through spy-glasses, but
after much debate and clamoring for the
floor to make ~interrogations and fling sar-.
castle snarls at the champion of the deserted
county, a smooth-looking joker appears in
the background with a bundle or two Of
bonds, and u disposition is manifested to-
divide about $4,000 among the trouble
makers. Then the new scene appears. Spy
glasses are laid aside; they are not now
needed. The whole matter is now easily
explained. Messrs. j. and W., who were
hard to make understand, now see the point
and begin to bristle up "Aha-a-a, / see,

A SERIOUS accident occurred in the Ber-

of while Mr.. Rowley, the young man who
lately recovered from an axe wound in the
knee, was engaged In tamping it. The
tamping bar struck him in the forehead,
cutting a frightful wound. His face was
also blacEened with powder. The shot was
a good one and broke to the bottom of the
hole, and it is remarkable that Mr.. Rowley
was not killed outright. It is more remark
able still that he was not even knocked
senseless. At last accounts he had taken
cold in his head and it was trightfully swol

J. OUR brief mention of moving the county
seat, last week. has created considerable
comment. There is quite a feeling express
ed in favor of making a change. The SUBJ
'stantial men of the county are getting anx-
ious to see some permanent place being
built up in the county. Let the county-seat.
be moved to some central point and a per-
1manent town commenced, and its taxable
property would, in two years, be worth
$780, 900 to the county, whereas, our pres
ent county-seat is not worth $4,000. Any
business man can readily see the benefit
that would accrue from the change. We
have but little choice in locations, but are
anxious tosee a town with churches. schools
and all.k;nds of business being built up in.
our rnidsts The source of Meagher coun.-
ty are vast and the trade, ii concentrated
capable of building a city that would rival
even Bozeman for the metropolitan. honors

IT is stated thaS Gallation county has Pc
titioned to havesthe Office Of school superin-
tendent separated from its connection with
the treasurer. The main cause OF this, we
learn, is because the treasurer elected is a
bachelor, who is too bashful to come in
such close contact with school marms rs
might be necessary in filling the snperin-
tendency business. It is very considerate
in the citizens Of Gallatin to acquiesce in the
wishes OF their esteemed servant, the. treas
urer, but we doubt if the Legislative body, a
majority of whom, by the way, are-men Of
family, will entertain the petition. The
youthful bachelor should have acquainted
himself with the duties before he went SO
far as to accept the office. We pity him,
must be a dreadful undertaking to sit
Gown in q secluded place and question
school-marms as to what they know.
