introduced in the Council {No. b5) by
Mr.. Edmiston of Columbia county, reads
a. follows:
The Billings herald. [volume] (Billings, Mont.) 1882-1885, 1883-04-28

We have just ascertained from
the Miles City Press that we are one
Of the redceming features Of a
scheme, the groundwork Of which
is fabric of misrepresentation and
deceit, and the Press, with astound-
ing audacity, insinuates that we
are ''uniformly silent upon the
subject" This subject, which is
only darkly hinted at with an al
lusion to victims and courts, we
are at loss to form an idea of ex-
cept that it originated in the heated
Imagination of the party who pen
ned the article. 1t is not the poll
cy of this journal to wait until the
storm has burst over the heads of
those who may be guilty Of corrup-
ton and fraud before drawing the
attention of it's readers to the facts
of the case, a policy which we re-
gret to observe is not pursued by
the Press.
The Billings herald. [volume] (Billings, Mont.) 1882-1885, 1883-04-28

The French empire seems to have
adopted the policy of foreign ag-
grandizement which England and
Russia have been working so sue
cessfully during the past. a little
while ago we heard Of an abortivc
French movement to secure the
island of Madagascar, and now it is
reported that French troops are oc-
cupying the territory along the
Congo river in Africa. Portugal
complains that her rights in that
territory are being infringed and a
collision between the troops of the
two countries is imminent Ger
many is said to be distrusttul of
France, and has marshalled troops
along the frontier to be ready to re-
enact the campaign of 1870 if ne
cessary. Whether Germany is
anxious to pick a flaw in frances
conduct, or whether the latter en-
pire is really showing symptoms of
a desire to fight it is impossible to
gather from the dispatches. But
that Frence, Germany and Russia
are in ferment which will develop
into war, civil or international,
seems pretty certain.

1t appears from our Miles City
correspondents letter that Dan
Lcahy managed to compass his own
death by taking an overdose Of the
opium to which he was habitually
addicted. 1t would seem then that
bis jailer had allowed him to have
in his possession sufficient guam
tity of this drug to make a fatal
dose. Opium, like many another
medicine, is a deadly poison, if ad-
ministered in doses exceeding the
medicinal size. Leahy was prob
ably addicted to its use as a narcot-
ic, and that he was allowed the free
consumption Of the drug in jail is
reprchensible, but permitting him
to have it in quantity sufficient to
cause his death, is an act of crimi-
nal negligence on the part of his
keepers. 1t is as if they had fur
nished him with loaded revolver,
a sharp knife, or any other instru-
ment of certain death. If ever a
person should be guarded with a
view to his safety from attempts at
self-murdcr it is after he has been
found guilty of q crime which is
surely punishable with an ignomi-
NOUS death.
