THE CITY

The democratic party Of Butte City achieved
a splendid triumph in the election of Dr..
Beal to the Office of Mayor yesterday. The
fight was hot and stubborn, for the Republic
cans staked everything on the mayorality.
They placed theiI strongest man in nomina-
ton for the office, and, if they had succeeded
in ~electing him. they would have made the
welkin ring with their shouts of jubilee.
They would have assured the whole country
that Butte was a Republican city and would
have taken Immediate steps to make the boat
good by a iuliclons distribution of the public
patronage among their own blowers and
strikers.
Fortunately for the welfare OF this commu.
nifty, this vicious scheme of the Republican
bosses was overlhrown by the votes of = vast
majority of our o~rier-lovins citizens. The
glory Of victory belongs to the Democrats
because they deserved TO win.
DR.. Beal will make an excellent ma, or.
He possesses the right kind of ability for This
responsible and most important office, and
we are confident that his administration will
amply demonstrate the wisdom shown by
those who honored him, and did credit to
themselves by electiny him yesterday. The
election of aldermen was not 50 warmly con-
tested, aud resulted in All equal division be-
tween the parties. two Democrats in the Sec
ond and Fourth wards, being offset by two
Republicans in the First aud Third wards.

POSTAL TELEGRAPH SERVICE.

Postmaster General James favors the es-
Establishment Of a Government telegraph SER
vice in this country. We trust that his rec
concentrations in the matter will have weight
with the next congress. The people of The
territories are the greatest sufferers by the
present uncertain aud insufficient telegraph
St rvice and they are specially interested in
having the general Government take the mat
ter into it, own hands.
For a week now, with the exception of a
single day, the people of Montana have been
deprived of the pleasure and advantage Of
learning what is going III in the outside
world because al the telegraphic new sent to
this section must com over a single wire for
a distance of more than four hundred miles
and the accident of a steer scratching him
breaking it down, cuts Off communications for
an indefinite period.
1t the Government had charge Of the lines
we would have more wires and a better SER
vice in all parts of the country at a greatly
reduced cost. Every argument that can be
ADVANCED against Governmental control OF the
Geographic business applies with equal force
against the public postal service, but no one
can he found insane enough to argue that the
business of transmitting the mails should be
relegated to private enterprise. By all means
let us have Government telegraph service at
the earliest possible date. 1t IS bound to
come sooner or later and The sooner the bet
ter for the people of the far West.

ABDUL AztZ, late Sultan Of Turkey, was
found dead in his bath a short time ago and.
as the veins in his aims We're laid open. il
was easy to find believers in the report that he
committed suicide. Recent developments,
however, establish the fact that he was muir
dered and four servants in the royal palace
have confessed that they first smothered him
aud then opened the veins in his arms to
make it appear that he took his own lite.
The murder was done at the instigation OF
the relgning Sultan who feared that some
day bis deposed predecessor might want a
second term. Human life doesn't count for
much in Turkey when it stands in the way
of a Sultan's will.

The project OF supplying the city with pure
water from Bull Run is meeting with high ia
vor among our leading citizens. Three-fourths
of the $4,000 considered necessary TO erect
works and lay pipes was subscribed yestel-
day, and there is no reason to doubt that the
rest will be forthcoming soon. The under
taking is most commendable, and every pub
lie spirited citizen will do all in his power to
make it a success.

The deadlocH has borne heaviest, next al
ter Senatorial gladiators, upon that very
worthy and patriotic class of fell0w-citizens
who are seeking an official appointment or
awaiting Il confirmation, They have long
ago exhausted the delights OF the national
capital, and have had to restock their ex-
hausted patience till supplies are getting
short.-Helend Hcruld. =
If the able editor of the Herald has grown
weary of the tedium of Washington while
waiting for the fulfllmem of the disgrace
full agreement between the Republican bosses
and Mr.. Malone, he can find relief in a yerv
simple way. Let him drop a line to presi-
dent Blaine or Ass; ;sant President Garfield,
requesting the withdrawal of the nomination
of Robert 4. Fisk as postmaster at Helena.
and in fifteen minutes he eau pack his grip
SAX and Start home to enjoy the Sabbath
like stiffness and seclusiOn which Helena SO
bountifully affords. Or il be prefers the
hustle and excitement of a great city let him
come to Butte and we'll make it pleasant for
him. He should either take our advice or
stop growing.

A FEMALE

Mrs. BELVA A. LOCKWOOD, a noted ta,
lawyer, has made a humorous applicatiol
President Garfield for an appointment
Minister to Brazil. She says il her letter
she is not afraid of the yellow fever, ea
quake or famine. She has not taken d
either with or against Conkling in the
crtson matter, and, if appointed, would de-,
all her energies to the promotion of Amerl
interests. There is no good reason why
Lockwood's application should not get
the place she seeks. There is nothing NJ
done in the position but to draw the pripo
salary allowed by our Government and
are confident that she would discharge
duty as faithfully as any man posi-
could. In these days Of se
and electricity Il diplomatic
vice is a mere mockery, a senseless suryiI
OF a once useful, bnt now outgrown, piec
governmental machinery. During the
ininistration two-thirds of the first,cl
missions were filled by men who founu
pleasanter and more economical to speI
their time either in this country or in tray
ing, than in the capitals to which they vd
accredited. Mrs. Lockwood would probaH
be as worthless as any of these .easy-goi
gentlemen, but mere worthlessness can han
ly be considered a bar 10 diplomatic posiiJ
in this country. Besides, Mrs. Lockwo
can be spared without grief at her absenJ
She is as fond Of seeing herself in print
Private Dalzell, and a little rest from
inky etiusions on all possible topics, won
like a benson to an afflicted peopI
We don't care much for the Brazilian moi
archy at BEST and as Mrs. Lockwood wou
probably talk it to death in about two veal
we are heartily in favor Of sending her to R
