ELECTIONS.

Nothing has transpired since yesterday
to change our estimate of the result in
Montana; as we then stated not less than
thirty Of the forty-five delegates elected
are Democratic. New Jersey, Maryland,
Virginia and Mississippi have given very
decided Democratic majorities. Con-
necticut, Colorado, Minnesota, Nebraska
and Pennsylvania, have gone Republic
can. New ork has elected Carr, Repub-
llcan, Secretary of State. The liquor in
terest going against Maynard, Democrat.
The rest of the State officers Democratic.
Legislature Republican. Butler has been
defeated in Massachusetts, as he says by
money fraud and corruption. The vote
was larger than on the last Presidential
election. Butler receiving much larger
vote this time than when he was elected
before. He claims that the result of the
election shows that Massachusetts is
Democratic In states. confessedly largely
Republican, the Democrats have made
great gains. We have no doubt that in
a presidetial election. New York will be
decidedly Democratic. On the whole
there is no reason for dependency over
the outlook for Democratic success in
1884. However. great deal will depend
upon the nominations made. A year is
long enough for many mistakes to be
made, which the people of this country
are prompt to rebuke. Local dissensions
are not so likely to arise on a presidential
year and as gains arc being made by the
Democrats everywhere, nothing but their
own folly will defeat them in 1884

The smoke of battle has cleared away

The smoke of battle has cleared away
sufficiently for us to predict that the en-
tire Democratic ticket has been elected
in Gallstin county with the exception of
G. L. Duke, of Willow Creek. 1t cannot
be definitely stated who the successful
Republican will be. The lowest Demo-
crat so far as heard from has about AS,
with three leading him as follows: Pease
$50, Ferris 49l, Eaton AT. Should Cooke
City poll large vote, it is anticipated
that Colonel Eaton will get very strong
vote as well as other upper Yellowstone
precincts, so that we should estimate his
chances as little the best. The vote being
% light in all the western part of the
county we can hardly dare hope that
Judge Duke can overcome the majorties
now against him. The estimates given
are not entirely correct and on many of
the candidates is based upon what the
delegates at large received. We have
been unable to get any returns up to the
hour Of going to press from West Gala
tin, Elk Grove, Willow Creek, Hillsdale,
Yellowstone No. 2 Park, Cooke City, Puet
and Sweet Grass.

ISMONTANA DEMOCRATIC:

Upon the basis Of the votes cast for
Marshal Botkin in the principal cities
and counties of Montana last year, our
Republican friends have been claiming
Montana as being Republican, utterly
ignoring the strong opposition which had
been made in the Democratic party, to
the nomination of Major Maeinnis for
the two last terms. Does this election
Justify them in continuing to make such
a boast. Notwithstandin. the Democrats
did not care or want to make a fight on
straight out nominations and Il e Repub-
licans no doubt believing what they have
all along said, did take the lead in party
nominations, 50 far as returns have been
received the Democrats have been sue
cessfilI, even in places where they had no
right to expect it. True, but Il light vote
has been polled, but we undertake to
say that in this county, at least the Dem
ocrsts have suffered the most from the
votes not coming out. Take for instance
East Gallatin, which should poll 80
votes, has only polled twenty-five. That
precinct has steady majority OF about
fifty. The Republicans were in fighting
trim to carry the Constitutional Conven-
ton. They put in the field strong men
in every county, men who should have
the confidence and support of the party
and yet from present indications the con-
ycntion will consist of about thirty Dem
ocrats and fifteen Republicans. Three of
whom were virtually elected when they
were nominated. In the counties east OF
us in which frauds were so loudly
charged, the Democrats are still two to
one. In Custer three tickets were in the
field: Republican, Democratic and Peo-
pies, the latter of which is composed OF
Democrats, who cannot affiliate with
those who have had charge of the party
machinery. In Yellowstone, formerly
part of Custer, the vote is nearly two to
one Democratic. In Helena, the Repub-
lican stronghold, the Democrats elect at
least two of the four delegates. In Che
teau, which is ccnfessedly largely Dem
ocratic, there is Coalition ticket, one
Democrat and one Republican, thus Sc
curing through courtesy the election Of a
Republican. In counties such as this
they have been willing to run coalition
ticket. In counties where they had a
reasonable hope of success, they have
not yielded to such an arrangement. In
view of these facts, their confidence and
organization. their expenditure Of money,
their placing their strongest men in the
field and their Waterloo defeat, we think
we can answer the question at the head
of this article by saying, Montana is
Democratic and will remain so.

AMERICAN MEN AND WOMEN,
Mr.. LabOuchere's Answer to Il Snarl-
Ing English Critic.

Americans are essentially cosmopoli-
tan, and they adapt themselves far more
easily to new surroundings than we Eng
fish. They are moreover. more free
from prejudice. OF course, among fifty
million human beings there are some
who are Objectionable, but Americans on
neutral grounds, such as Paris, Switzer-
land, etc, are as a rule, very great deal
more appreciated than we are: this is
not because they are richer, but because
they are more pleasant. We, rather
than they, are, I am inclined to think,
open to the reproach of being uncomfortable
Among ourselves we get on very well,
but with foreigners, we are not so popu-
lar. Few Americans remain long enough
in England to go into society. Those
however, who do, are generally well re-
ceived, and their manners contrast with
considerable advantage with those of
very large number of Englishmen.
1t Is rare that an American is not
good talker. He may have devoted more
time to heaping up dollars than to the
cultivation of art, science or literature,
but he has gained much curious expert
ence in his avocation which he is ready
to impart, while on general matters there
is freshness, shrewdness and mental
activity, often alloyed with considerable
hunor, which makes his remarks worthy
of attention. Although the accummu-
lation of dollars may have been his par
ticular mission, there is nothing mean or
paltry in his mode of thought; he is
staunch friend and pleasant acquaint-
ance. Whether he has won his fortune
honorably, he knows how to spend it
nobly. In this Island of ours, where
conventlonalities are law and gospel. it
is relief to meet with any one who does
not bow down before them, and who has
some sort of individuality. To term this
individuality, vulgarity is to show igno-
rance of the meaning of the word, or
rather, to accept the meaning attached
to it by those who are themselves inately
vulgar.
American women are, in nine cases out
of ten, infinitely more agreeable as COM
panions than English women. They are
better instructed, they talk better. They
are neither dolts or tom-boys dressed in
petticoats, nor bread-and-butter misses.
There is indeed nothing either missish
or masculine about them. There are,
however, some demoralized or deterior-
ated Americans who seem to imagine
that they will curry favor with us by
renouncing all that is good in their
country, and accepting all that is silly in
ours
Yes, 1 like Americans, and l believe
that in taste, feelings and manners, we
have much to learn from them.-London

Chas. D. Curtis, chief fire marshal of
Helena, makes some useful suggestions
to guard against accidental fires. Par
ticular care taken of matches 80 that they
may not be in the hands of young chill
dren; trimming and filling of lamps only
in day time and never near the light;
pipes of stoves, heaters, etc, never near
wood work cleaning of flues and stove
pipes frequently; never bring lamps near
the bedside at night after retiring; plaster
ing of chimneys inside and out; never
leaving cotton waste, linen and cotton
rags when covered with grease or oily
dirt in a heap or in damp place. We
commend these suggestions to our people
q well as every other precautions against
fire. Constant vigilance will be required
or dire results may follow.

Our neighbor does not seem to like the
proclamation of Mayor Bogert. As a
member of the city council, he should
have entered his protest there. From
what we have learned, the proclamation
was issued to meet complaints made by
citizens. However, we do not construe
the proclamation to mean that police
man shall not 90 into a saloon except
with a warrant or to quell disorder, but
that he shall not make it an habitual
place of resort. If we thought that its
meaning was that he should not even go
in to see if things were all right, we
should oppose it, but We consider it a
part of his business to drop in there as
yell as elsewhere, as it is part of their
duty to be everywhere in the town.

The Tewksbury human hide tanners

The Tewksbury human hide tanners
have been too much for Ben Butler. We
have never had any confidence in his
election, as there was very large ele-
ment in the Democratic party hostile to
him. The fear too that his persistence
to make himself candidate for the
Presidency on the Democratic, ticket in
1884, if elected governor again, has no
doubt had some influence. The defeat
Of Ben Butler can in no sense be inter-
preted a. Democratic defeat.

We caution our citizens to be very
careful about fires these windy days and
not keep up any hotter fire than comfort
demands. Bozeman has been peculiarly
fortunate and We hope always will be,
but too much caution cannot be exercis-
ed. A fire breaking out during the pre-
valence Of a strong wind would be beyond
control, even with the best facilities. "a
word to the wise is sufficient.

CITY TAX PAYERS.

For the benefit of the city tax payers
we publish portion of the "act to pro-
vide for the levy and collection of street
taxes in incorporated towns and cities
approved March Z, 1888:
SEC. lit shall be competent for the
municipal authorities of any town or
CITY, incorporated under the laws of this
Territory, to provide by ordinance for
the levy and collection ola tax ofnot ex-
ceeding two mills on the dollar on all
taxable property within the corporate
limits of such town or city, and also a
special tax of three dollars on each able
bodied man, between the ages OF twenty
one and forty -ive years, residing within
the corporate limits of such town or city,
shall.constitute astrtet fund and shall be
expended in openin., improving and
keeping in repair the streets and alleys
of such town or city.
< y -
SEC 3.-Whenever any such town or
city shall provide by ordinance for the
levy and collection of such street taxes.
no further or other road tax shall be
levied or collected by the County Treas
urer of the county in which such town or
city is situated of or from the residents
thereof, or shall any portion of road
taxes collected in the county be expend-
ed upon the streets or alleys of such cor
porate town or city, and thirty per cent.
of the ad ralorum tax collected under
and by virtue of any such ordinance
shall be paid into the county treasury by
the City Treasurer, and so much of
said thirty per cent. as may be necessary
shall be apportuned to the road district
in which such town or city is situated,
to be expended on roads of said district
outside of town limits, and the surplus
of any shall be for the credit of the
general road fund.
BY this it will be seen that the citizens
of Bozeman are not liable Oh their county
tax for the amount assessed dd ,UtOrum
for road purposes; nor for the special tax
of three dollars, if the council has pro-
vided for its collection by ordinance ex-
cept to the city. This reduces the total
levy in the city one mill from the fig
ures given in this paper few days ago.
Make note of this when you pay your
taxes to the County Treasurer.

No further returns from any of the
election precincts in Gallatin County.
We made arrangements to have returns
sent us, but either no polls were opened
or our friends were not there. So that it
is possible we may have to await the
official count. However we do not think
that any returns yet to come in will
change matters as they now stand. So
very little interest has been taken that
Gallatin county will not poll more than
300 votes, not more than one-third of
her voting population

We have every reason to be jubliant
over the success of the Democratic party
in Montana. Our Republican friends
placed nnexceptionable men on their
tickets throughout the territory, but the
Democracy was too much for them and
besides they were not lacking in as good
material.
