not, however, of men so thoroughly
aud conspicuously identified with the
Republican party as MI. Beecher
that recruits are to be expected. The
class whichssne describes as the

look to for reinfOrcements in the inn

In their alliances. are the class which
will swell the Democratic vote. The
young men, too, the students who
will for the first time cast their bal
lots, those who have nothing to un-
learn-these are sure to come in great
numbers to the party of liberality and
economical views. There can
be no question that the changes go

the voting population are immensely
in favor of the Democratic party. 1t

In removing the suspension of

he former.
The semi-weekly miner. [volume] (Butte, Mont.) 1882-1886, 1884-01-30
RESTORED.

Nearly q year ago the Presl
dent issued an order suspend
ing Judge Conger as Judge o
the First Judicial District Of Mon
tana. This act Of the Preslden,
was based upon certain information
received by him concerning the hab
its of Judge Conger. which habits, II
was alleged, unified him to preside
with becoming dignity, ETC., etc.,
upon the bench in this Territory
This suspension was followed by
changes in the boundaries of the
Third Judicial District by which
changes Judge Wade was enabled to
render decisions in certain matters
involving the constitutionality Of an
act of the last Legislative Assembly
Of Montana This matter being set
tied to the satisfaction OF the principal
movers in procuring the suspension
of Judge Conger, steps were then
taken to have his removal follow his
suspension. To this end, Judge
Shannon, of Dakota, was instructed
to proceed to Bozeman and take testi-
mony touching the truthfulness of
the charges preferred against the
suspended judge. This was done
and the evidence forwarded to WASH
ington to be passed upon by the
proper officers.
In the meantime, Judge Conger
was the passive recipient of the
vilsst abuse from q portion Of the
Republican press Of the Territory.
His long service and sacrifices in his
cause; the physical disa-
bilities he incurred in promoting it; !
his unimpeachable record while upon
the bench, and the unbounded con-
f1dence rep0sed in him by those who
knew him best. were all ignored by q
biased mercenary press andthe valiant
and upright Judge was made
the target for ridIcule, for vile mis-
representations and for the venom
Dus tongue Of SANDER.
. And now after all has been said
that could be said against Judge
after his enemies have ex-
lausted their walls of wrath upon his
head; after he has endured the
:alumny of those who are I'M
to unloose his shoe-latchets;
Ifter he has suffered months of sus-
,ense and mental torture comes the
Jews of the removal of his suspen-
ion; that he is restored to his official
luties with all its emoluments and
hat 1.-THE examination of the charges

WASHINGTON, January 28.-The
charges against Governor Murray, of
Utah, respecting irregularities of his
office while United States Marshal of
Keuencky, were considered to-day.
1t was decided to summon Represent
alive White, of Kentucky, to-mor-
row to explain the basis of his re-
marks In the House last Monday re.
fecting upon Governor Murray. The
committee expects, after hearing
White, to either give Murray an op-
p0rtunity to testify in his own behalf
or report that the records of the
Department Of Justice show charges
and recommend that he
answer to that department.

1t appears that the colored people
Of Washington do not approve of
Fred Douglass new departure in the
matrimonial line. A dispatch from
that city says: The marriage of
Frederick Douglass created not only q
sensation, but a great deal of excite .
ment among the colored people, who
almost without exception, denounce
bitterly Douglass action. Some of
the most prominent colored persons
say that Douglass has committed po-
litical suicide by the act, and now has
placed himself in q position which
will ALLEVIATE all his colored friends.

Is now being reluctantly conceded

ing the Northern Pacific before the

would have lest a large portion of its

dict that. Notwithstanding the

him in the management Of the road,
history will accord to Mr.. Willard
the possession Of an energy, fore
thought and wisdom in bringing
the Northern Pacific to . speedy
completion, seldom equalled and
never excelled by any other railroad
manager In the United States.
