BorKIN,s NOMINATION.

Thursday evenings Record has quar-
ter of q column editorial, in which it
tries to insinuate that Mr.. Botk.la aes-
cended to trickery in order to secure the
republican nomination. OF course the
editor Of that sheet knows as little about
this IS he does about most subjects he
attempts to write on. He says: Il seems
that Mr.. Mills, OF the NeaD Nortssusst,
was a. fayorite candidate and expected
the position, but Botkin's friends euchred
him of the nomination by adyislng
him TO decline before the convention
met, in order, as they said, to throw his
opponents off the trick The truth OF
this is, as Buck and everyone else IN the
territory knows, that on the very first
mention of Mr.. Mills' name in connect
tion with the position, that gentleman,
through the columns OF his own paper,
stated that he was nota candidate, and
on subsequent occasion reiterated this
statement and said like Maginnis1 that
that under no circumstances would he
consent to be candidate. But there
was this difference between Mills and
Maginnis former had some regard
for his word and kept it like the honor

WATERMAN AT CANTON.
A Fine Turnout and Stirring Speech
CANTON, NJ. r., Oct. 10, 1882.


Max Waterman, ESQ, spoke here last
night to e large and attentive audience,
j considerable number of Whom We're
Democrats. Laying aside national po-
liticas questions, he spoke for over an
hour and half upon purely local issues,
showing in clear, logical manner the
wants and requirements OF the people Of
the Territory, what had been done for
them, and what they have failed to re-
ceive In comparison to other territories.
He presented among other things the
forcible argument that ten years. ago
| Dakota had about one-half the popula-
tion flaat Montana had. Now she has
over three times the population, sixteen
| times the amount Of railroads, and twice
as many land offices and other things in
proportion, while Montana, having
double the natural resources, continued
| to send the same delegate to Congress to
represent her interests. Dakota, how
| ever, had changed her delegate every
| two years and thus had made rapid
strides in development and prosperity.
/ Mr.. Waterman during his argument
/ showed conclus;vely that change IN
the delegateship Of Montana was desir.
! able now, and would beyond any doub'
/ greatly enhance the interests Of the peo'
ple. Mr.. Waterman has the faculty o1
j commanding the attention OF an audi.
ence by his pleasant and urbane man
ner while speaking. He made hosts @
friends while here. INDEX.

The Deer Lodge delegation gave Mr.

ninutes, and during that infermlsslon
some of Col. Sanders friends in the hail
urged hi1a to stand for the nomination.
He told them, as he had told the writer
he same morning, that his own private
business would not allow him to accept
the nomination, and furthermore, that
he could not In honor accept; that he
had come to the convention to support
Mr. Botkin, and that he intended to do
@. that Mr.. Botkin was his first choice
or the position and he would work to
secure his nomination. Here was an
other n,aD whose honor stood the test.
After the recess the names of the differ
ent gentlemen who had been placed in
nomination by their friends were called
off. and Col. Sanders made one OF his
happiest speeches, declining TO contest
the nomination and strongly in favor OF
A. C.. Botkin. A telegram was read
| frorn T. C. Power favoring the nomlna-
| tion of Botkin. When Judge Knowles
name was read off, that e ntleman also
declined, and spoke very highly OF Bot
kin "a his choice. When Mr.. Botkin's
name was called that q millennium, through
/ his friends, was man enough to say righ,
out that he would accept if nominated
and he was nominated without resort te

My Last Offer.

We had wedding at our house last night,
With throng of guests and maze OF flowers;
The rooms were brilliant with their blaze OF
light;
In song and feasting PASSED the hours.
My little nephew, four years and half,
Bewildered. glad and wonder.eyed,
Saw all the glitter, heard the song and laugh,
And ate unwonted sweets beside.
Next day he pondered much, as wise folks do,
Then craved of me a little boon;
"Aunt Jennie, why don't you get married,
hope you'll do it very soon."
"Dear child" said, and stroked his curly
head,
"You would not wish it if you knew
That must 60 away if | should wed,
Istead of living here with YOU"
His face grew grave, for he had only thought
OF wedding cakes and ices sweet
But, if with less Of Auntie it were brought,
The feast would be doubtful treat
He clasped my neck and kissed me on the
cheek,
Then said the loving little elf,
"Aunt Jennie, don't get married till next
week,
And will marry you myself"
