EST DEER LODGE, MONTANA, FRIDAY, NOVEMBER g, 1885

the last funeral services were performed by
the pastor, Rev. DR.. Charles II. Parkhurst.
Although the morning broke dark and
gloomy, with occasional bursts of rain, hun
dreds OF people gathered early In the neigh
borhood Of the church and Mr.. Primes
house. Squads Of police began to arrive
early and were placed In position to preserve
order. Two hundred and fifty men were
employed In the lines extending from the
house to the church, two blocks away, while
other officers guarded the church doors and
passages leading to them. No one, not even
the intimate friends Of the family, were ad-
mitted within the doors of the Prime man
sion, and only the family and pail. bearers
were present when, reverently and with
tender hands, the black cloth covered casket,
upon which rested sheaf of wheat and Q
few immortelles, was lifted and slowly
borne 10 the street. On either hand were
the all-bearers, consisting of Gen. w. s.
Hancock, Gen. Fitz John Porter, Gen. w.
Fl. Franklin, Gen. j. Z. Johnston, Gen.
Arson <. McCook, Gen. Martin J. cMahop,
S. l.. Barlow, Hon. w. c. Kelsey, Col. Ed
ward II. Wright, Thatcher w. Adams, VIM.
c. Prime, and Hon. A. s. Hewitt. Behind
the pail bearers followed Mrs. Mcclellan,
Miss Mary Mcclellan, Max cClellan, Capt.
Arthur Mcclellan, Gen. Murray and the
family servants. In this order the cortege
left the house, and was met outside by the
State Commandery of the Loyal Legion of
the United States and representatives of
Meagher's Irish Brigade, which served un-
der Gen. Mcclellan. Both these organiza.
tions preceded the body to Madison avenue,
where between open ranks the funeral cor
tege passed into the church and up the
aisle.
The 18th chapter, 1st Corinthians, was
read by Rev. DR.. Whitaker, and the final
rites were conducted In the simplest man.
ner. When the services were ended the
undertaker's assistants placed the coffin on
their shoulders and marched slowly down
the aisle to the door. The congregation re-
manned standing until the pall-bearers and
members of the decessed's family had left
the building.
There were no soldiers In line, no band
of music, no draped colors. The funeral
procession, so far as any outward display
was concerned, might have been that Of any
well.todo citizen. Outside the church the
street was lined with people. The police
maintained good order. The family, the
delegation Of neighbors from Orange and
the committee of the Loyal Legion took
carriages and were driven TO the Pennsylva-
mir railroad depot, where special train
stood waiting to receive the party. The
train steamed out of the depot for Trenton
at noon, where the burial will take place.
As the funeral procession moved from the
church to the depot it was received with
marked respect by the people who hurried
along the sidewalk. Hats were lifted and
many tear fell from the eyes of the veter-
ans who once served under the dead Gen.
eral. The simplicity of the procession was
noticeable. Nothing about it gave any in
dication whatever of dead hero.

The Mineral Argus referring to the mat.
ter Of Fergus county having no representa-
ton apportioned to IL for the next legisla-
ture, and quoting our mention Of the pre-.
requisites to session, says:
| "No taxation without representation, was
the war cry of our Revolutionary forefathers.
We want q representative and q joint coun-
Gilman with Meagher. We will not be dis
| franchised In our legislative halls through
the stupidity Of q former body. Represen-
tation or rebellion!!!"
The rebellion Of Fergus county with three
daggers; COOL Lord! BY the way, the terri
tories have no representation in Congress
and have not rebelled-even under greater
grievances. If there shouldn't happen to be
an extra session might not Fergus have
representation by delegate in the legisla-
ture, as other counties have had before?
Please don't rebel. II lie In such bad form,
you know. Really, Fergus should have had
representation apportioned TO 1t; but We
have seen counties that would have been
better of II they now had no representatives
and Fergus will not get any the worst Of 1t
II relying on delegate representation. And
then, II the legislature should reassemble
and forthwith repeal all the laws passed last
session, and 60 home, as has been suggested
as wise thing to do, then Fergus county
would not need any representation for there
would be no Fergus county. Even II an
extra session should he called to apportion
representation to Fergus county, the county
would not be represented in that extra
session, and extra sessions have made most
Of the muss In territorial legislation. 1t
really looks, after all, that matters are In
bad shape, and perhaps there is nothing left
for Fergus county but to rebel. We hope,
however, that II It does go out Of the terri
tory It will leave the Mineral Argus in, for
we would be sorry to spare from Montana

GRANTS REMAINS.
Mrs. Grant Sets at Rest all Questions as to
Their Removal.

NEW YORK, Oct. 29.-During several
weeks past there has been much speculation
in the minds Of New Workers as to whether
General Grants body would remain here or
be removed from the State. These doubts
grow out of the re emily published state
ment, attributed to Hon. J. B. Chaffee, to the
effect that the family of General Grant did
not wish the Generals body to remain In
this city, and that Congress at its next ses-
sion would take action in the matter.
In order to make sure about the matter
the Grant Monument Association decided to
take action, and on the 10th instant Mayor
Grace, its Vice President, wrote a letter to
Mrs. Grant stating the rumors at some
length, saying they were likely to interfere
seriously with the raising of funds for the
monument, and asking her to make a def
mite and positive statement on the subject to
be given to the public. Her reply is ap-
pended:
MRS. GRANTS REPLY.
NEW YORK, Oct. 29.-Dsar Sir: Your
letter of the 10Th came during my absence
and was seen on my return from Long
Branch. Riverside was selected by my son
and family as the burial place of my hus-
band, General Grant:
First-Because believed New York was
his preference.
Second-It is nearer the residence | hope
to occupy as long as live, and where l will
be able to visit his resting place often.
Third have believed and am now con.
WINGED that the tomb will be visited by as
many of his countrymen here as it would in
any other place, and
Fourh-The offer of park in New York
was the first which observed, and that unre.
servedly, The only condition imposed by
General Grant himself namely, that /
should have place by his side.
l am, sir, very respectfully,

A DECLINE in the emigration from Great
Britain Is reported for the nine months end
ing September 80 this year rs compared with
the same period Of last year. The total en-
igration In the period named was 16S,797,
against 2OO,4 In 1884, or . decrease OF
about 10 per cent. The greatest decrease is
shown In the number of persons bound TO
British North America, only 1922 leaving
this year, against s,sO7 last year, decrease
Of over 10000. The emigration to the
United States amounted to ia, se2 persons,
against 130,O54, q decrease Of 1902. A
very slight increase was shown In the emil
grafton to Australia. Considering the gen.
eral depression In trade In Great Britain
during the past year the decrease shown has
occasioned some surprise.
