Last Monday night, the court house in
cannack was densely packed with an entlu-
siastic audience, who were entertained for
three hours by speeches from Hon. Msjcr
Maginnis. Hon. Samuel Word, Hon. Alec E.
Mayhem aud Hon. Wash. Staple.on.
Major Maginnis opened, and delivered an
eloquent speech Of an hours duration, re-
viewing national politics in q mastery aud
comprehensive manner. The Majors dis
cussion OF the political issues of the day show
ed a thorough and c..:,ical knowledge Of he
e eat principles embodied in the demo-. &c
creed, and his t..bute o the illus -:ous he.o
OF Gettysbu-g was q marked fea.u e II his
speech. In review ng ter 10 al affairs he
showed q familiarity with the needs and
wants of on people, gsined through a con-
G. ess.onal service of many years that has
been acceptable, and has been heartily indo.s-
ell Ivy the great mass of Montan:ans.
Hon. Samuel Word addressed the NEE. 'ng
next. 1t was a characteristic effort and high
~ sel'shed and applauded. Mr.. Word raked
up the black and damning record Of the 'War
Foss," and showed up the same in all is hid
bus deformity. He told how Sanders, years
ago, attemp; ed to 9. cal his way into congress
through the fundamentally of ficlii 'ops .Fi.
Union returns ~ and the connlvasce Of Uncle
Edge:top, and fastened the guilt of the at
tempted crime, beyond q doubt, on Sanders.
The speaker told how Sanders went 10 Wash

NEW YORK, Oct. 21.-The national demo.
cratic committee issued the following to-
night:
To THE PUBL1C-When this campaign
opened the national democ .'a,ic committee
contracted with the American Union and
Western Union Telegraph companies for spe-
cial rates for their business, and al Ranged with
said companies that all kilograms sent or re.
ceiyed by the committee should be returned
at the end Of each week to the cashier of the
committee as vouchers for bills rendered.
The teleg ANS sent o. received by our COM
mittee have been returned under this arrange
ment weekly, and paid for according TO con-
tract. On Wednesday morning, Oct. 20, the
Western Union company returned to the
committee vouchers, as usual, for the second
week n October. Upon examination by our
cashier to verify the amount, the following
kilograms were found in the package 50 sent
as vouchers, evidently being a mistake on the
part of the officials having tue same in charge
at the Office of the Western Union telegraph
company. The kilograms are written upon
Western Union blanks, and are as follows:

News Notes From the National Capita

Editor Butte MINER.
Washingten-the republican part Of it
has been in a state of unexampled rejoicing
for two days. While the early idea that Ohio
and Indiana, if both should go republican,
would settle the presidential question, has
sensibly been abandoned, no doubt is felt by
anybody that the carrying Of both states is a
tremendous party gain. The officers of the
two congressional commit ees here say that
both parties will carry on the campaign with
even more vigor up to the day Of election in
November.
Casiuet officers are dropping in OH US, all
feeling we'll. It is not thought likely that any
of them, except possibly Secretaries Schurz
and Sherman, will speak further during the
campaign. They are already promised tor
New York, Connecticut, etc. Without wish
ing in any way to interfere with partisan sub
jects, l cannot help repeating the hope that
this is the last campaign in which government
officials will virtually have the management
Of . party. 1t is Of doubtful propriety, to
say the least, and l question very much II
more votes are not lost than gained by 1t.
Attempts are being made to interest the
people of every state in = grand national fair
to be held here yearly. At which the various
| productions Of the country can be shown,and
every visitor gain ample knowledge Of our re-
sources. All the governors Of states have
been communicated with, and several have
responded favorably. Gen. Grant, who will
pass . portion of the winter here, and who
likes Washington very much and owns prop
erty here, will do whatever he can-and that
is much-to advance the project.
Secretary Sherman says government re-
ceipts this month indicate . debt reduction Of
about eight millions.
1t is impossible to set, Al the state depart
ment, any information concerning the alleged
sin%tervention" Of the United States In the
war between Peru and Chilli. The story
came BY way Of London to this country, and
Is doubtless greatly exaggerated, eve" II Il
