The LahOrtng Men For CieveianG.

At Washington the other day. repre-
sentative Ellis, of Louisiana, said: We'll,
sir, it is a terrible blow at bossism. We
may lose John Kelley and twenty thons-
and votes in New York, but we shall
gain many times that number in New
York. Massachusetts,. and other northern
States. The men and the platform com
mend themselves to the hest men Of both
parties. The contest is sharply drawn
between the candidates and the plat
forms Of the two parties, and the conser-
vative elements of the Republican party
will naturally be drawn t" the candi-
dates of the new Democracy. Blaine's
strength must not be underestimated, but
he cannot have the confidence of the
business men of the country, nor hope
to poll such vote as Sherman could
have had among the business men of all
classes. Blaine is strong candidate, but
Cleveland is stronger"
Senator Vest is enthusiastic in his
commentator of the work of the con-
vention. Sunset Cox, of New York, who
is member of the Tammany organiza-
ton. says Tamm ny will support the
ticket. "As to the laboring men-I speak
from personal knowledge, inasmuch as
the largest portion Of my constituency
are laborine men neither Gen. Butler
nor any other man can lead them away
from the Democratic party. Cleveland
will certainly carry New York" Judge
Holman, of Indiana, thinks the nomina-
tions are strong and the platform pretty
good one.

tons in the shape of work from the
farmers tn construct the canal by the LIST
of June, 1885, to Middle creek. The
amount asked from BOzeman is ten
Thousand dollars.
It was also estimated by those present,
who were competent 10 give testimony
upon the matter, that at least twenty
thousand dollars had been lost this year
from lack of water to irrigate their
crops by the farmers in the immediate
vicinity Of the canal.
There was committee Of three, con-
sisting of Messrs. Nixon, Ferris and Rob
inson, appointed to circulate a subscrip-
ton paper among the farmers Of the val

is estimated that about forty thousand
dollars will be required either in money

Temperance Lecture.

Miss Henrietta G. Moore, on last Fri
day night delivered one of the most inn
pressive and eloquent lectures on tenn
perance at Spieth 4 Krug's hall we have
listened to for many years. The audience
was not as large as we had expected, but
the speaker was listened to with marked
attention.
She took the prohibition ground. hold
ing that that was the only way to deal
with the liquor traffic, that license in any
shape did not mitigate its evils, and the
only way for the safety of the nation, for
the security of homes and firesides was
that it's manufacture and sale must be
entirely prohibited. she represents the
W. C. T. u, which she says now em-
braces 10000 women of the United
States who are handed together to make
common warfare, and spoke very hope
fully of the prospects of the organization
and the ground that prohibition was
gaming in the states, and in fact all over
the civilized world.
The meeting was ably presided over
by Mrs. Morse, who gave the audience
very pleasing address at both the open
ing and close, and invited all the ladies
in Bozeman to attend their meetings on
every second Wednesday at the rooms
of the Young Mems Christian Assoeia-
ton, and unite with them in the good
work. The women are earnest in this
matter, and by united effort can accom-
plish much good. When they undertake
anything they are sure to succeed, and
as they never undertake any but good
cause they are doubly armed.

Montana Matters.

The Hon. Samuel Word Of Butte City,
Montana, attorney of the Union Pacific
branch lines in the Territory, and Samuel
Hauser, president of the First National
bank, Helena, are in st. Paul, to-day, ell
route home from the Chicago convention
where they served as delegates. Mr..
World was on the committee on resolu-
tons and like Saunders at the republican
convention, contributed large share to-
wards securing the incorporation into the
platform of plank pledging the democra-
tic party to policy of making federal APP
pointments from territorial timber. He
acknowledges Gen. Buffers kindly Offices
in behalf Of this plank. The general urg-
ed its incorporation upon both Hewitt
and Morrison at Mr.. Words suggestion,
and his views had much weight with the
committee. Mr.. Word had then but to
see that the plank was in the platform as
drafted, and that it should not be strick-
enout Both parties are now pledged to
this policy and some good may come of
it, thanks to Sanders and Word, of Mon
tana, who worked ceaselessly and eflectu-
ally in the interest Of correcting these
grave abuses. Mr.. Word goes out west on
the fast mail at four o'clock.

Explanation.

We publish below the reasons as given
bv Hon. S. Word, in an interview with
the Independent, why DR.. Mitchell was
not appointed on the National Com
mittee:
"Hon. W. J. Mccormick, of Missoula,
who was personally present and actively
at work with us. DR.. Mitchell, of Deer
Lodge, had been recommended by our
Territorial Central Committee as the
proper member of the National Central
Committee. desired very much to have
him appointed and so did Mr.. Hauser.
DR.. Mitchell expected to attend the COIL
vention and l had hoped he would he
there, but he was not We felt the me-
cesslty of immediate action and of having
some one from the Territory present TO
meet with the National committee. All
the delegations from the Territories
were selecting men that were on the
ground to represent the interests of their
Territories at the meeting of that COM
mittee, and I did not wish to see Mon
tana unrepresented at SO important a
meeting. / at once telegraphed DR..
Mitchell on the subject, but before his
answer was received we were compelled
to act, and the committee was appointed
and held its first meeting before / re-
ceived his answek As soon az the names
of the committeeman were handed in,
notice was given that the newly appoint
ell central committee would meet at once
at certain rooms in the Palmer House.
They did meet, and. as | was informed
by Mr.. Mccormick, had an important
and interesting session, and adjourned to
meet again at the Fifth avenue hotel on
the 24tn of this month. Mr.. Mct ;ormick
agreed to remain east and attend the
meetings of the committee; he is now
east and will remain there until after the
meeting to be held on the oath inst.
felt, knowing DIR. Mitchell as di.l-his
allegiance to his party and loyalty to the
Territory - that whatever personal
wishes he might have in the matter ne
would cheerfnlly surrender for the in
tcrests Of the Territory. And feel now
that had Dr. Mitchell been placed in the
situation in which the delegates from
this Territory werc-being on the
ground, knowing all the circumstances
and the Importance Of keeping Montana
as much to the front as possible-he
would have acted as the delegation from
Montana did after deliberate consulta-

This distinguished orator lectured last

course arrested the attention of his hear
ers. He has a glib tongue, rising fire.
quently to eloquence and pathos. and
again to unblushing effrontery and MAIL
din sentiment. While paying a high
tribute to human love and love Of home,
he burlesques all the heart holds most
dear and sacred, denying the evidences
Of Christianity and the immortality Of
the soul. He offers nothing in return
for the one hope Of compensation in a
future world for the pain and anguish of
this. He leaves us like a dull worm to
rot. side-splltting jokes and mere asser-
tions are more than is required nova
days to uproot the faith in the human
heart of hereafter. His greatest facul
ty lies in his ability to put the ridiculous
side to every question he handles. We
would prefer to see the results of such
teachings as his, something to show
that mankind will be better for it, that
the human race will be lifted up, vice
eradicated. and crime lessened, before
we should loose hold Of that we have.

practice, of one thing We are sure, that
Christianity teaches nothing that is bad.

preacher of new gospel which is calcul-
ated to lift man as they say out of the
slough of superstition, who peddles his
grand ideas over the country at dollar
and half head.

HORSE THIEVES.
Five More Strnng Up ut Rocky Point
Thirteen Lynched aud Shot
In Three Weeks.

Dave Hilger and S. Y. Swendeman,
who arrived from Judith City Yesterday.
bring the startling information that five
horse thieves were captured and hing in
the vicinity Of Rocky point few days
ago. The word was brought to Judith
just as they were taking their departure,
and they did not get the particulars Of
the extraordinary event. The deed was
done by regularly organized band Of
COW boys, who set out to roundup the
thieves that infest that section. and they
are doing their work in good shape.
They secured thirty-two heatl of horses
from the quintet of outlaws, and then
made short work of them by hanging the
lot to the nearest tree. While the de-
tails are not at hand, there seems to be
no doubt whatever that the bill as given
in general is true one.
The stock men and other citizens are
making it decidedly interesting for the
outlaws that infest the region between
the lower Judith and MusselsIlell.
Within the past three weeks thirteen Of
them have been lynche,l, and 1t is pro-
liable the end is not yet. The campaign
was opened by the killing of two thieves
on the Musselshell, followed by the dis
patch of two halfbreeds at Clagett, then
one was strung up on Armell creek and
another near Fort Maginnis; two more
were fixed" at Lewiston on the Fourth,
and the big haul at Rocky Point is the
discriminating in all thirteen victims.
At this rate it will not take long to clean
out the gang, and it is the only effective
way to do it.
