For the House Of Representatives In this
county the Republicans have made most ex.
celent nominations of well know men In
the persons Of Conrad Kohrs of Deer Lodge
and r. L. Perkins Of Philipsburg. The for
mer Is 30 we'll known As q prominent bust
ness man, an intelligent, public spirited citi-
zen and respected resident since the or
gauization Of the county, that 1t would be
more appropriate for him to Introduce us to
The people Of Deer Lodge county than for us
to speak of him. His excellent business
sense, thorough knowledge Of the affairs Of
the county, and integrity of character CON-
mend him a an eminently good legislator.
Mr.. Perkins, Is mining superintendent, has
demonstrated the same commanding euaiIi-
ties and his knowledge Of the legislative
needs and requirements of the mining inter-
eats as specialty-an interest that Deer
Lodge county desires her representatives TO
aid and encourage by all rightfuI leSislation
--renders IL very desirable that he should be

cellent men TO accept the candidacy, and We
Ieel In regard TO them precisely Is In regard

will accept the positions the very wisest
hing electors can do is TO elect them. Just

Going Back on the Northern Pacific.
PORTLAND, Oct. 10.-Ths Oregonian to.
morrow will priut an interview with the
heaviest shippers of this city, showing prob
ability that the majority will not sign con-
tracts next year with the Northern Pacific,
but will give their business to the Union
Pacific and the Oregon Short Line. The
present contracts with the Northern Pacific
expire Jan. LIST next. The reason alleged Is,
bad faith on the part of the Northern Pa.

New YORK, Oct. 13.-In regard to the
trouble between the merchants of Portland
an the Northern Pacific Railroad, Presi-
dent Harris said he had nothing 10 say OH
the subject until he communicated with the
gentlemen composing the Portland Board of
Trade, with whom he had the interview re-
ferred to. He said ave always have more
or less complaint from some one. Every
man who does not prosper quite As we'll as
his neighbor takes 1t into his head that IL
must be the fault Of some one else, and IL
there is a chance of blaming the railroad he
is sure TO do do so. 1t is absurd. Suppose
that could have guaranteed Portland NOR
chants rates so low as to enable them to
compete with New York manufacturers, but
how was l to know whether Portland could
compete with New York Pr

HEADQUARTERS GRAND ARMY
OF TIE REPUBLIC,

HEADQUARTERS GRAND ARMY
OF TIE REPUBLIC,
TOLEDO, Ohio, Sept. IS, 1884.
The country at this time Is greatly agita-
ted by great political contest; and while IL
must be conceded BY all thst no class Of cit
liens have higher right to freely express
their political opinions and take part In the
campaign q their convictions shall dictate
than those who through unselish patriotism
went forth to save the nation, yet the Com
mander-in. Chief deems it his duty to remind
comrades that the Grand Army Of the Re-
rublic is strictly non partizan. Our Law
upon this subject Is plain and emphatic, a'
fellows:
"No officer or comrade of the Grand Army
Of the Republic shall in any manner use the
organization for partizdn purposes, and no
discussion Of partizan questions shall be per-
mitted at any Of its mestings, nor shall any
nomination for political Office be made."--
See Chap. 8, Art. XI. r. and r.
1t is therefore earnestly hoped that no
Post will violate this fundamental law Of our
association by participating In any political
demonstration whatever.
The wearing Of q Grand Army badge or
uniform at political meeting is in the high
est degree improper, and comrades should
refrain from so offending against the spirit
Of our Rules and Regulations.

PORTLAND (Or.), October There 10 q
lively social sensation At Salem. 1t is the
first the capital city has known In q long
time. Ten women have resolved to bring
divorce suits At the term Of the State Circuit
Court, which opens next Monday Two OF
them filed the papers with the clerk this
morning, and the others are expected to fol-
low towards the close of the week. or the
ten families involved seven are ansng the
Oldest and best families in Marion county
and three Of the husbands have recently
held prominent political positions. The
principal causes assigned are that the hus-
bands stay out too late at night and are teo
much given to painting the town red"
much to the annoy aDce and neglect Of their
households. This Wholesale application for
the dissolution Of marriage bonds is the cub
ject Of the keenest gossip. It is believed
that there ID preconcerted action on the
part Of the injured wives to scare their hus-
bands into reformation and that most Of the
cases will not DO pushed in the courts. Some
Of the parties have been married Is years,
and have grand children.

PUBLICATION OF PROCEEDINGS.

Among other important things, the next
Legislature will be asked 10 pass law re-
quiring full and official reports of County
Commissioner proceedings to be regularly
published In one or more newspapers Of the
county.--Erchange.
The above lie most excellent suggestion.
How much, OF rather how little, Of the pro-
ceedings of the County Commissioners,
their orders, audlts, appointments, payments
and official action, do the people know !?
Just so much as each individual person may
learn by examining the records personally,
or rs the several newspapers In the several
counties may CLEAN from the records and
publish gratuitously. The prudent business
man may employ m agent or have . conf
dental clerk to attend to certain business
for him, but he reserves the right, and eXer-
cises It, Of scrutinizing bis transactions and
reports frequently, and keeps himself well
Informed - TO his operations. The Com
missioners Of county stand toward each
tax payer In still more responsible posi-
ton, and with less restrictions upon their
actions than the agent or clerk has, and al
though the instances are not infrequent
where Commissioners almost hopelessly
swamp their counties with debt, 1t ID the
almost universal after excuse Of the CON-
munities that "they didn't know how things
were going until it was too late to stop the
proceeding" As the Law stands, It ID made
upon Commissioners to keep |

To Keep Green Bill Fairwoather's Grave
Mddisonidn, llh.

Alta meeting Of the Society OF Pioneers,
held In Helena during Fair week the neg.
lected and unmarked condition of the grave
of Bill Fairweather, discoverer Of Alder
gulch, was one OF the topics under discussion
and the matter was referred to the Hon. II.
III. Mood, yice-president of the Society fer
Madison county, with view to having the
grave properly cared for and an appropriate
monument to the memory Of its occupant
erected. Mr. Mood has, in pursuance Of his
mission, issued call for a dollar subscrp
ton by the pioneers Of Montana, to carry
out this object. We have no doubt that every
old-tImer will esteem 1t pleasure to contrib.
ute dollar to perpetuate the memory OF the
discoverer Of Alder gulch-tho man whose
discovery constituted the firm foundation
upon whish our glorious commonwealth Is
established; and, therefore, hardly deem il
necessary to urge n prompt response to Mr..
Moods request Subscriptions should be
sent to Hon. H. II. Mood, Pony, Montana
by whom they will be ssnt to the treasurer OF
the Society, Mr.. s. T. Hauser, to be used for
this very laudable purpose.

The Chinese War.

PARIS, Oct. 17.-Figaro says the Chinese
force defeated at Chu, was only column of
the left wing Of the army Of invaders Of Ton
quin. 1t explains the slaughter of 5000
Chinese BY the fact Of no quarter was given
or taken and no prisoners taken. The right
column, which is passing alsrg the river
Sangeau, is directed against Hong Hoa.

600 French soldiers In Tonquin only 1000

Gives IL Up ManfuIly,

CINCINNATI, October 16.--The Enquirer
(Dem.) In q double-leaded editorial says
The Democracy Of Ohio has been defeated.
The fight which closed Tuesday lacked
nothing on either side to call out the people.
Both parties had fair notice that on the 18th
of October there would be tremendous en- F..
counter for political supremacy IN this State
No platitudinal excuse, no appeal for sympa-
thy, no complaint against outrageous treat
ment-in short, no "baby act" can soften the
situation or palliate the effect of the defeat.
There Is no substantial comfort tor anybody
in the proposition that one party had more
money than the other; that anybody was in
undated, or that either political army was
out generated end out-numbered. The Ohio
result, even IL there should be q ccnsidera-
BILE reduction of the majority claimed BY The
Republicans, means that the Democracy
must put forth every effort to save New York,
New Jersey and Indiana to Cleveland and

Immediately after the meeting at which the

infinitely more interest, would present TO

that If this had been done in counties now
resting under heavy debts, incurred in many
instances for useless or worse than useless
purposes, the schemes would have been
frustrated. The publication In the matter
proposed would be but . triae In excess Of
the annual statement now published, and we
know all we'll intentioned Commissioners
would prefer that their entire action 90 im-
mediately and fully before the people. The
method would only necessitate the regular
quarterly publication and q showing Of the
condition Of the several funds, as Is now
done, at the end OF the fiscal year. The
plan proposed has so many advantages
and benefits over the present one that we
cannot doubt 1t will find legislative sanction
at the next assembly.

DENVER, Oct. 16.-Yesterday morning
M. b. Parkinson, a sheep herder, rode up to
the house of former employ err, Derby P.
Payne, a small sheep owner, living three
miles from Deer Trail water station, Kansas
Pacific Railroad, forty miles frcm Denver,
and after refusing Payne's invitation to take
breakfast, called him outside and demanded
the payment of $50, the balance due for
work. Payne replied he had no money then,
but hoped to have some in few days, when
he would settle. Parkinson, upon this, drew
revolver and fired three shots, the first past
lug entirely through the body of Payne, kill
ing him instantly. Parkinson gave himself
into the custody of the officer at Deer Trail.
After waving an examination he was taken
to Denver and lodged In Jail. He claims
that Payne made = motion as If to draw .
pistol, and he therefore sho: In self-defenss.
Payne was highly respected citizen.

THE OHIO VICTORY.
Republican Majority of 1881 on State Ticket
and ls,4l8 on Congressional Vote.

COLUMBUS, Oct. 1.-THE official vote was
counted by the county clerk to-day. Official
returns from GO, and semi. official from the
other %, give Robinson for Secretary of State
lie Works, l7,476. The semi-official returns
do not report on the other Republican candi.
dates, but with the 60 counties the plurality
of johnson for Supreme Judge is estimated
at between fifteen and sixteen thousand.
The total vote or msjorties by Congressional
Districts cannot be given, but the vote by
counties on Congressman shows 5s,544 Re-
publican. majorities, and 40, 1876 Democratic,
a net Republican majority in the Congress
ional vote of AIS.
COLUMBUS, o., Oct. 1s.-The returns by
counties Completely do not change the plu-
ralities as given last night. Unexpectedly
the Prohibition and Greenback votes in
crease proportionately with those Of the
Democrats and Republicans. The Prphibi.
ton vote last year was $500; this year it is
OSLO. The Greenback vote last year was
1887; this year 1t is 1890; thus showing that
there was no coalition, but that party lines
were closely followed. The total Green
back and Prohibition vote is II, AT, or /, 1925
more than Robinson's plurality. The rest of
the Republican State ticket has an average
majority over all of more than 5000 in to-
vote of 7s0,373.. Last year 1t was 71s, 16s.
In October, 1880, 1t was TIC, ls6. In Novem.
Der, 1880, it was 724, 967. There is no change
in the Congressman except an increase of
$50 In Romei's majority over Hurd.

Haunted in the funeral cortege, muchly to

fucian heaven. Buck Fanshaw's famous fu-
neral wasn't a circumstance to it. The cere-
monies, including the alteration Of the reast
pig, were performed on the open street, and
were witnessed by hundreds of curious eau
cassians before the procession started. In
