WE want a man for district attorney
who will stay here until the business OF
his office is attended to. We don't want
a man in that Office who will go through
the county on a hop, skip and a jump
twice a year and call that performing
the duties of his office. Every elector
in Choteau county who is in favor of
economy and retrenchment should vote
for Hunt for district attorney.

Hon OSG. CnopER will no donht he

Hon. O. @. COOPER will no doubt be
the next sheriff of Choteau county. He
is eminently fitted for this position and
should receive the cordial support of
every republican. Mr.. Cooper is well
known throughout the county and has
hosts Of friends even among his political
opponents. He has accepted the nomi-
nation, although he did not seek it, and
it will be a credit to the county if he is
elected.

AT the Blaine and Logan meeting

AT the Blaine and Logan meeting,
held in New Haven, the republican can
didate for governor, Henry B. Harrison,
himself as noted for his integrity as for
his great ability, tackled the "Mulligan
l~etters'' and said: It have read them
again and again, and I stand here and
assert that in all these letters there is
not an offer made by Mr.. Blaine to mis-
use his official power for any purpose.
There is not in those letters the sugges-
ton of using his official power for any
purpose at all, good, bad or Indifferent.

GROVER CLEVELAND goes upon rec
ord with a declaration which may take
the scope of prophecy. Upon being in
vited to attend a meeting at Philadel-
phia, he wrote a letter stating that he
would stay at home. This letter doubt
less applies with equal force to after as
well as before the election. He will
hardly be called from home then GER
tainly not in the direction Of the White
House.

WE cannot but believe that Choteau
county will cast a majority for the re-
publican candidates at the coming cleo

way. 1t will be a triumph for the re-
publicans to have this object accom-
plished, and we again urge that every
republican work heart and soul to at
tain this result.

THE COURTS.
THE GRANT & WARD LITIGATION


Julien T. Davies was given an extension
OF time until July s. by Judge Van HOesen in the Court OF
Common Pleas yesterday In order to enable him TO file his
bonds and prepare schedules Of Grant Ward
In his petition Mr. Davies said that Messrs. Fish and
Ward and IT, \ Grant jr had refused 10 assist him IN
preparing the schedules The affairs of the firm he said
were IN great confusion when he began his duties; a
large OF the firms business transactions did not
pear their books, but private memoranda kept
by Ward. III books on loose slips OF paper, and
the assignee could get q knowledge OF these
only by personal explanations from Ward. The
operations Of Ward and Fish in borrowing money on al
legged Government contracts, all OF these fictitious
basis Which, Mr.. Davies says, so far the firm OF
Grant IL Ward concerned. nothing or less
than borrowing money at usuriOus rates OF interest and
upOn fraudulent representations Tho nature Of these
operations aud the fact that the book kept
jointly Ivy Mr.. Ward aud Mr.. Fish was not in
tho bOokkccpeT hands and s yet In the possession
of the assgneCs, make II almost impossible TO ascertain
the legitimate creditors OF tnr firm. All this Il cOmpli-
Gated with the smt Of JON II. Morris, the
gnee of Mr.. Fish, against the receiver, and with
conflicting claims against tho firm. Therefore
Mr.. Davies thinks that he must have move time
TO prepare his inventory and schedules As the suit
of Mr. Morris not likely hc determined until the fall
term Of the courtlthcl assignee thinks there IL no need
OF special haste In filing his bond preparing his
schedule. The assignment made May q. Judge
Van HOcscn pctltiOne granted extension Of sixty
days from that date. TO July D.
In the suit OF Assignee Morris agalnt Ulysses E. Grant
and others, the petition of Laidlaw e co., who on
pr % loaned Grant Ward 800 900 certain shares
OF ilroad stock, Referee Cole will report to the SI
prec Court this morning in favor OF LaidlaW Co.. and
recommend tnat the securities be sold
