Was it Right P

Yesterday there was brought to town
and lodged in the county Jail four buffa-
Seth Whipple, George DWyer, Chas.
Smith, and Dick Baldwin. They were
arrested on the Fort Peck Indian reser-
walton, for hunting buffalo thereon. It
seems strange that the government will
allow Indians to leave their reservations
and wander all over the country, and
not be molested, and as 500 as a white
mar steps on their grounds, he is arrest
ed and lodged in the county jails, and
his property confiseated. Here are four
honest and industrious citizens placed
behind the bars in our county jail, just

@M@A
WE just want to say a few words to
the people OF Dawson county to correct
a mistake under which they are labor
ing. They claim that the politicians of
Choteau county ignored Dawson county
entirely in the selection of candidates
for the council. It was understood here
by both parties, we believe, hat as Cho-
teau was the senior county Dawson had
conceded hef the right to name the can
didates this time, Dawson to have the
selection two years from now. Indeed,
this plan of mutual concession was the
only one that could be adopted. Dele
gates from both counties to a joint con-
vention could not be secured, nor could
the question have been decided, like the
district attorneyships, at the territorial
convention, for Dawson sent no dele
gates to Butte. The first intimation or
idea which Choteau had that Dawson
had any objections was the nomination
of Back. Until that time, long after the
conventions had been held here, we all
supposed the people of Dawson would
put Churchill and Hamilton on their
tickets and vote for them in as good
faith as we would have done two years
hence for two Dawson county men.
The Times says the people of Choteau
were hot because Back had been put up
and elected, and Immediately c%oncocted
a scheme to seat Hamilton, the natural
inference being that the people Of this
county were united in this. Now, this
is far from being the case. The MAORI
ty of the republicans of Choteau are in
favor of seating Back, and So, also, are
many democrats, and the issuing of the
certificate to Hamilton was merely the
work of a few of the democratic leaders
here. Perhaps there are many of us
who believe that, if only legal votes
were counted, Hamilton was elected,
but we think the same thing Of Botkin,
and claim that if those votes were good
for Maginnis they were good for Back;
if Maginnis got his seat SO also should
Back. And if the election We're to be
held e. again between Back and Ham
ilton only, the former would be aston
ished at the number Of votes he would
receive from the people of Choteau coun-
ty, even if they are hot.

A Poor Excuse.

Miles City papers announce that be-
cause of the prices asked by the typo
graphical union Of that city they will,
for a time, suspend the publication of
their daily issues, and confine them
selves to a weekly edition. We don't
believe they give the real reason. We
have some knowledge of the printers
unions, and they seldom ask more than
fair wages. The real reason is, proba-
bly,, that Miles City, though making
such big claims for herself, cannot sup
port two daily newspapers, and it is a
cause for reflection that a town which
claimed to poll some 1900 votes at the
last election is unable to do what Ben
ton, which cast less than half that num-
Der, is we'll able to do. Their papers
should have had the manliness to give
the true reason, and not try to throW the
blame on a class of men who, as a rule,
receive less wages in comparison to the
intelligence and labor required of them
than any other skilled mechanics in
Montana. The other papers in the ter
ritory pay these men the wages they
ask and do not grumble at the rates, and
if Miles City is as fiourishing as she
would have the rest of the world be-
lieye, her journals could do the same.
It speaks bad for her that they have to
suspend SO near the opening of spring,
and the only conclusion we can come to
is that Miles City either has not the pop
ulation she claims, or it is a mighty ig-
norant and illiterate one. From the way
they voted we should say the latter.

MEMBERS of the legislature who favor
q repeal of the present odious printing
law might as well devote their time and
breath to other, though not more i'm
portant, The law, la the first
place, was passed as a purely party mea-
sure-not in the interest of the people
and it will not be repealed as long as
there is a democratic majority in either
branch. Even if the bill should pass
the house, the democratic majority in
the council have given the people no
reason to think they do not set party be-
fore justice. But we suggest that the

the campaign Of 1874 will look over them
carefully, he will find that Judge Blake's
remarks about Col. Voolfolk pitching

republican, are founded on fact. We
distinctly remember reading the report
of snch a speech in some of these old

change had taken place since in the
Colonel's ideas.

democratic party of Montana should be
ashamed. Mr.. Forbis is a democrat in
politics, but is an.honorable exception to

WASHINGTON.
Gloomy Republican Officials at
the Capital,
Who See a Dismal Prospect That They
Will Have to Go to
Work.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 8.-NOtWithstand-
ing the Republican assumption that
Democratic victory now means Demo-
cratic defeat in 1884, aud the ready con-
ISOLATION that the Democracy in power
can be safely trusted to blunder itself
out of power in year, still the Ohio
election has injected large dose of
gloom into the office holding population
of this city. 1t is rather doubtful wheth-
er much comfort is derived from the
reflections noted above. 1t sounds too
much like whistling through grave
yard. The things are said but 1T does
not seem as if the men who said them
believed them. There must be nearly
10000 men and women here to whom a
change of administration might mean
the loss of comfortable salary, a lazy
life, and an unaccu5tOmed hunt for the
means of existence in an unsympathiz-
ing wOrld. The life of government
clerk has been written about until every
body is familiar with it, but it seems
real only when you are here. 1t is. or is
supposed to be, work from 8 until 4. No
body works very hard, and most of them
work very easy. Outside of those hours
there is no worry, no thought of busi-
ness. There Is no need of it so long as
taking thought will not add penny to
the semi-mOnthly payment. Plenty of
ambitious young men come here who
think they will study law or medicine,
or do literary work in the off ff-hOurs, but
probably not more than one in hun
dred adheres to the determination. The
easy atmosphere breathed by thousands
of clerks has its effect There are clerks
here who have done almost the same
work for eighteen or twenty years.
They would be absolutely helpless if
turned out. Their salaries have not
been large enough to enable them to
save anything and they dOn't know how
to earn money. 1t is no wonder that they
are gloomy in view of an event which is
an omen of evil for next year.

THE CIVIL RIGHTS DECISION.

The decision of the Supreme Court
against the civil rights act wipes out
the last remaining vestige of a whole
cerning matters in which the COnstitu-
tiOn gave to Congress 10 jurisdiction.
A few years ago the prevailing public
sentiment was rather careless of cOnsti-
tutiOnal restrictions and despised to re-
sent any denial of the unlimited power
of Congressional majority. To-day
everybody accepts a decision which
knocks to fragments one of the proud
est achievements of party statesman
ship--the only one of the kind that had
not been knocked to pieces befOre-as
though it were quite amatter of course.
We are getting back to more cOnserya-
tive ideas and methods in politics.

A DISASTROUS EARTHQUAKES.

CONsTANTINOPLE, Oct. 17.-It is report
ed that much damage to property and
great loss of life was caused by the
earthquakes on the peninsula between
Chesme, Asia Minor. opposite ChiOs, and
VOurla, on the southern coast of the
Gulf of Smyrna. All the villages in that
region were destroyed. 1t is believed
that upwards of one thousand persons
perished. The survivors of the disaster
are suffering fearful privatiOns, and a
complete panic prevails.
Most of the houses collapsed at the
first shock, burying their inmates. The
people who escaped became panic
stricken and sought the fields, where
many are still huddled together in a
starving condition and suffering from
cold. Help for the stricken people is go
ing forward frGm Smyrna. The Porte
has issued notice stating that twenty
thousand persons are homeless and
pleading for immediate assistance. A
Government Commission will start as
sOOD as possible to aid local officials.
The report that one thousand persons
perished is confirmed.

ANOTHER MOVE.

Give Up the Fight.
They viii Beslege the Legislature for a
Local Option Law-How the Colored
Voters Helped HOadIy.

COLUMBUS, o., Oct. 18.-The leaders of
the second amendment here have given
up all hope of the adoption Of the amend
ment. 1t is certain that the amendment
has failed of votes enough to carry 1t
through, and no amount of investigR-
tiOn or recOunting can change the re-
suit.
What are you going to do nextP"
asked reporter of one of the leaders of
the movement.
ASK the Legislature to grant local
option. That is the line we are going to
make our fight on now. We will begin
at once getting up petitions for local
option, and we will flood the Legisla-
ture,with them"
What about the Scott lawP"
1--WE don't care for the Scott law. We
are Indifferent whether il stands or is
repealed. We want total prohibition if
we can get it. If we can't get that we
will take the next best thing, partial
prohibition. If we can get local option
law we can have prohibition in seven
tenths of the State aud we can in time
get 1T in the other thTee-tenths. 1t must
come"
Then you don't give up the fght?"
mo. We will never give up the fight.
We are bound to win yet
There is general sentiment here
that since Republican Supreme Court
has kicked over the civil rights law the
correct thing for the Democratic Legis-
lature Will be to pass civil rights law
for the State.

Mile Rhea as Camille.

A very large and thoroughly apprecia.
tive audience gathered in SchaefeT's
Opera House on last Wednesday evening
to with ess the performance of the ever
popular play of Camille" by the great
actress, Mile Rhea, and her incOmpara-
BILE company. The play was mounted in
fine style, Mr.. Schaefer sparing no pains
or trouble in his efforts to make 1t one
of the great dramatic events of the sea-
son. The character of Camille is one
that has always been a great favOTite
among certain school of actresses, ap-
pealing, as it does, to the softer emotions
OF the heart, and many are the great
names of the theatrical world assOcia-
ted with its representation; but it is
safe to assert that never, in the history
of the stage, has it had an abler or more
distinguished delineatOr than Mile
Rhea. The acting of this talented lady
Is as near perfection as it Is possible for
an actress to attain to, and her every
word and movement was listened to
and watched with the most absorbing
interest on the part of the large audi
ence present Wednesday evening. Her
French accent did not serve to lessen
the interest manifested in her portrayal
OF the ch Tacter to any perceptible de-
gree; and such was the enthusiasm
which she awakened in the breasts of
her auditors, that she was twice called
before the curtain Her support was
admirable, every member of the com.
pany being perfect in their parts, the
acting of Mr.. VIM. Harris as Armand"
being particularly fine.
