| CLEVELAND, Sept 21.-Senator Plumb
Of Kansas was on the train when it az.
rived at Elyria at quarter before two
O'Clock. The pretty little town was
crowded with its own citizens and peo-
pie from the surrounding country, and
the jam at the depot was so great that
there was difficulty In getting to the
carriages. There was q meeting in pro-
gress in the court house square winch
was about TO be addressed by Secretary
window. When MIR. Blaine mounted
the stand the people cheered him re-
peatedlY. He was introduced by Hon.

county committee. and he spoke as fol-
lows: Mr.. Chairman, and ladies'

During the days OF the. anti slavery
struggle there was no side issue that
could divert the inii-slavery men of the
western reserve from the one great alb
sorbiDg question, and l believe that the
same disposition prevails now that no
side issue will be permitted to divert
you from the controlling question of this
compaign lgOod, good. l thank you

subject upon which others will address

well. Prolonged cheering.l
Judge West made brief speech and

MIR. Blaine and party returned to
Cleveland, where they arrived at four
O'Clock.
MIR, Blaine remained at the Kennard
house receiving callers aud attending to
his correspondence until near q O'Clock
when he returned to Mrs Garfleld's. He
will spend quiet Sunday there, going
TO church in the forenoon, and in the at.
ternoOn will probably visit Garfield's
tomb. On Monday at 0 o'clock he will
leave for Toledo and beyond.

lightful trip.
The limitations in one Of the Butte papers
recently concerning Mr.. Medhurst, late su-
perintendent Of the Lexington Mining Co.,
are explained as follows: 1t appears Mr.. NJ.
personally was financially embarrassed. The
Lexington Company acquired the Princeton
and other valuable lode claims in this county.
The party who actually purchased them was
an alien, and therefore the titles were vested
temporarily in Mr.. Medhurst. While SO
vested the First National Bank attached
them for Mr.. Medhurst's personal debts,
amouuting,w we are informed, to some $4,000,
and they were advertised at sherif's sale. A
stay Of execution was issued for six months.
In the meantime the officers of the company
arrived, and a couple of weeks ago superce-
ded Mr. NJ, who is now in Portland.

PROTECTING Game.

Governor Crosby is reported by the Enter
prise as making vigorous effort to stop the
killing of game in the National Park aud in
Wyoming and Montana, for the Park Hotel
tables. That is all right, and we trust he will
be successful. While the Governor Is en-
gagged in this good work we wish to suggest
another in the same line, but of still more
direct interest to the people of Montana.
This Territory has excellent and stringent
game laws. Under their workings, II uni
versally enforced, our game should and does
increase. But while the white residents re-
spect and abide by the laws, allowing all
game life, liberty and the pursuit of happi-
ness during the breeding season, the Indians
constantly violate them. Every spring and
summer bands of Indians hunt the moun-
tains and valleys of Western Montana, at
least, destroy it in large quantities and drive
it to the uttermost recesses of the mountains.
Game has become at times so abundant that
1t grazes clear down to the valleys; then
comes along band of Indians, camping and
killing at their leisure, and no more game Is
seen for months. If these Indians, princi-
pally of the tribes In Missoula county, cannot
be kept on their reservation, they should be
made amenable to the laws of the Territory
when they are off of 1t. The idea Of relega'
ting trial for such offenses to the tribes, to be
tried and punished under tribal laws, Is on
the very face OF 1t an absurdity. No Indian
would ever punish another for killing game
in any stage of propagation. As long As
these Indians can kill at win, our game laws,
as relates to animals, are useless prohibi-
ton to the whites and an invitation to the
Indians. 1t may be a long road up hill to
get this thing stopped, but IL Is the pathway
for public benefactor to tread.

At the session of the Montana Presbytery,
Just held at Helena, the following resolution
recognizing the gratuitous services Of Rev
J. r. Russell was adopted. As Mr.. Russell
was resident here during many years Of
this service, our people add their attestation
to that of the Presbytery:
"Resolued, That the Presbytery receives
with regret the resignation Of J. r. Russell,
of the Office of stated clerk, and desires here
to record our appreciation Of his long and
efficient services. We recall that he is now
tho original member of this Presbytery; that
he has kept the records with neatness and
always orderly, SO that there has never been
a criticism of them by the higher courts Of
the church; that he has been faithful in St
tending the meetings of the Presbytery,
often travelling hundreds Of miles by stage in
severe weather, risking health, and even life,
to attend meetings where he was almost the
only delegate, and this at great expense to
himself, while he never has received any
salary; and that he has performed all his
Duties as an officer Of the Presbytery faith
fully and to the entire satisfaction Of the
Pfesbytery.
nResolUed, That copy of these resolutions
be furnished Brother j. r. Russell"

The Hampton Students.

The Hampton Students, consisting OF some
half dozen colored people, gave one OF their
Jubilee entertainments at the Presbyterian
church last Saturday evening to q good house.
IL was quite an enjoyable entertainment OF
its kind, being principally the camp meeting
and revival songs of the plantation negroes.
The voices were fair to good and blended
into fine harmony in their peculiar choruses.
Keep in de Middle OBJ de Road" and "old
Ocean" were especially pleasing as chorus
and quartette; "old Black Joe" was a wei
sung character song, and MARY Has Gone
Wild Coon" one of Billy Speeds best The
gem of the evening was "The Maid OF Dun
dee," sung by the soprano without snspi'
cion of negro dialect. The jubilee songs for
an entire evenings entertainment become
monotonous, II not tiresome, and the stu
dents" would do well to intersperse more
ballads in their programme. 1t Is better
company than we had anticipated from press
notices. -..

Tho School Election.

The Trustees of School District No. have
posted notice calling for an election to be
held on Friday Of next week to vote an adj
dittonal $4,000 issue of bonds for the con-
struction of tho new school house. The
original amount asked and voted was $l5 900.
Subsequently $4,000 more was asked and
voted This additional $4,000 now asked
would carry the amount up to So, 900, bear
ing seven per cent per annum interest. The
FIRST issue of $4,000 was then considered suf-
fcIeut for the purpose. When the additional
900 was voted 10 was stated and under
stood that amount would be ample. Now
giO.0 600 more is asked, and the question
arises: "How much is this school house
going TO cost? viii the S35 900 complete It !"
The building is truly good one. Ii is one
Of the best and most substantial public build
ings we know OF In the Territory. The de-
sign, material and workmanship are all first
class. II should and doubtless will endure
for generations. 1t Is an ornament to the
town. The Trustees have, however, builded
better than they had money to build with,
and by letting the work in separate contracts
and varying from the original plan, the cost
has far exceeded their expectations. We be-
lieve our people would vote yet more to COM
plete the building, but they want to know
Just how much more it will cost, and then
vote only that amount, If II is reasonable. The
exhibit offered throws no light on the situa-
ton. We had hoped TO see statement that
would show 1.-THE amount Of debt there
will be when the present contracts are COM
pleted, the work yet uncontrolled for, and
the amount IL will cost TO take the work ut
that stage aud complete 1t for, as we are in
formed, the tin roofing, plastsring, painting,
and some of the carpenter work, have not
yet been contracted for. We also understand
there are $500 Of bonds not yet sold, and
the old school property Is worth q considera
bic sum Mechanics can make an estimate
Of what 1t will require to complete the build
ing, and we hope the Trustees will give all
the Information they can before the next
issue OF this paper. We realize that school
tristeeship. especially where building Is
being done, Is an arduous and vexatious po-
sition, and are satisfied the Trustees Of this
District have conscientiously doss the best
they knew In this building matter but this
is q business matter IL Is one Of common In
terest, Of common benefit and common bur-
dons, and IL IL right that all should be fully
Informed, SO they can vote intelligently.
Until this Is done, or fails to be done, we de-
fer further mention. .s

Con Murphy, one of the two persons who
held up the Benton coach some weeks ago,
Is making a remarkable record. 1t will be
recollected he was arrested and escaped from
the city Jail in Helena. Evidently confed.
crate had horse ready for him. On this he
rode rapidly away, crossed the Missouri, and
on the third day reached the town Of Big
Timber on the Yellowstone. Here he sold
his horse, drank whisky and gambled until
the officers in Helena were apprised, and
Under Sheriff Conrad went down and cap
tured him. He was returned to Helena,
where the Vigilance Committee, apprehend-
ing confederates would again assist him In
getting away from the insecure city jail
where he was confined while the steel cells
are being placed In the county Jail, con-
cluded to lynch him. Sheriff Fitzpatrick get
ting wind of the 3-7-77 programme, started
Murphy, under the escort Of Deputy Conrad,
to Butte. When nearing Stuart, Murphy,
who was bandcufied and shackled, desired
and was given permission to enter the gen.
tlemen's closet. Conrad followed just in
time to see Murphy disappear through the
window, although the train was going about
20 miles an hour. He pulled the bell rope,
and soon after gave it another pull, the engi-
neer mistaking the second pull for "Go
ahead" So the train ran on mile or SO
while matters were being explained to the
conductor. He then put Conrad of, who ran
back and found Murphy hiding in the brush
by the river, with one handcuff off and en-
deavering to remove the other. He was cap
tured and walked ahead Of revolver to
Pierse's Station, where a team was procured
and he was taken to Butte. His escape from
death in jumping, manacled, from train
going at that speed, is marvellous. Murphy
has evidently studied up the penalty of rob-
bling the o. s. mail coach, and is disposed to
take desperate chances rather than 60 to
Anamosa for life. He is making a rather
brilliant record, of its kind, and probably
hasn't quit yet.

A Belleton correspondent of the Iadspen,
dent under date Of Aug. IL, writes: "A terfi-
BILE murder was committed ut Clendennin,
Barker district, on last Friday evening. 1t
seems that ono Murane was suspected by
Pete McDermott Of being too attentive to
his wife. McDermott accused him Of 1t, and
the result Of . conference on the subject
seemed to be amicable to both parties. This
was on Friday morning. In the evening
McDermott sent for Murane and his sister to
come to his house. Directly upon their arri-
val McDermott fired four shots into Murane's
body, killing him instantly. The deed was
committed In the presence Of McDermott's
wife and the sister Of the deceased. The
murdered man only said: He gave me a
poor show for my life.' The murderer has
fed, and mp to this time has not been cap
tured. He took no horse with him, but
could easily have done so. 1t Is supposed by
some that McDermott has committed sni-
eide, rs he threatened to do In a previous
conversation with his wife. Both parties
are well known in Barker and this vicinity,
and McDermott has always borne good
reputation. At the inquest Mrs. McDermoti
confessed her wrongdoing, but this Is NOT
believed by some.
