Besides, Mr.. Gibson has given promise of
making valuable member of the popular
branch of the national legislature. 1t is in
order now for Baltimore, Hartford and Cecil
counties to declare for the denomination of
Hon. Frank T. Shaw.

There was a riot at the conservative work
mems clubhouse at Dublin, Ireland, on
Monday evening provoked by the men in the
club, who committed nearly all the breaches
of order. A catholic procession passed the
club house, which was crowded with men at
the time. They attacked the procession with
bottles, and also fred number of shots into
it from revolvers. The police surrounded the
house, got control of the premises, and finally
arrested seventy of the inmates. 1t has not
yet been ascertained how many of the pro-
cessionists were hurt, but three of the injured
Catholics were in dying condition Tuesday
and twenty others were lying helpless in
the hospital, all suffering from wounds in
flicted by bottles or bullets. There is gen.
eral feeling of indignation against the Orange
men of the club on account of the attack.
At half past OF clock last Friday morning
a terrific explosion took place at the Atlantic
Giant Powder Works, situated between Nc
GAINESVILLE and prakesville, in New Jersey,
which caused loss of ten lives and the in
jury of ten or twelve persons. The killed
were torn into fragments. The explosion
took place in the mixing house, from some
unknown cause. The building was blown
into splinters, and an immense excavation
was made where it stood. For twenty miles
around the conclusion was distinctly felt. and
in houses FIVE miles from the scene the glass
was shattered The company's works are
scattered over nearly 400 acres of ground, and
there are between 80 and 40 buildings on the
premises. About 100 men are employed.
In the house which was blown up the number
employed was about Is. Fridays disaster
was the first which had occurred for ten years.
In the last previous explosion two men were
killed.

MONTANA'S

The TRIBUNE is first. last and all
the time for Great Falls. Fortunate
" also, there Is a spirit of unanimlty
among our citizens. They will stand
shoulder to shoulder, in defense Of
the town, no matter how strong the
foe. We want a delegate IN congress
who will work for the interests of
Northern Montana. We want a man
who understands our needs and knows
the ropes to pull in Washington, which
will lead the iron horse into Great
Falls, in the least time. 10 that end
we conscientiously believe that we
should join hands and circle to the
polls and vote for the Hon. J. Z.
Toole for delegate. He mas satisfac-
toriIy shown that he did al in his
power to help rs out during his
present term, and has pledged him
self to advocate with renewed zeal,
those measures which most affect our
welfare. We all know hin to be a
~gentleman, an honest and an able
man. Shall we swap horses while in
the very midst Of a rushing river?
Shall we exchange or heimsman
when we are out il the storm? We
guess not. Oh! no. We believe in
sticking BY an advantage when we
have it. His unanimous r%enonin-
alton by acclamation, without any
effort on his part, shows that his con-
stituents are more than satisfied with
his record and believe that be can do
more II Congress, for Montana than
any n else.

The Deadwood Townsite Contest.

Washington Special: A long and bitter
war, involving part of the townsite Of
Deadwood, Oak, is rapidly drawing to ii
close, as far as the interior department is
concerned, by the rendering OF several de-
clslons the past week by Secretary Lamar
putting a final quietus upon the famous
cases known as the Deadwood townsite
cases, unless they are carried to the courts.
An appeal is made TO each new secretary
to reopen and hear the cases. Two of
these cases Secretary Lamar has already
decided, and to-day he filed a third de
decision. The Robert Hawke entry, known
as Placer entry No. s, has been one of the
test cases upon which the battle has been
fought. It contained fourteen acres, and
extended in a strip 800 feet wide straight
up in the center OF the city. and involved
some of the best buildings therein. d. II.
Vaughn and others, who own part of the
toWnsite, and who had built these build
ings, have been trying to regain possession
since 1878, when Hawke first made his
filings. Over 1900 pages of testimony
bearing upon the mineral character of the
land has been taken. Three months ago
the toWnsite people came before the secre-
tary and asked that the case be reopened.
To-day he rendered a decision refusing to
do so and affirming Hawkes. title to the
land. 1t is probable that the townsite peo-
pie will now give up their property, rather
than go into expensive litigation.

The individual or newspaper that
asserts that Northern Montana is no
place for farmers is either devoted to
some speciality which, it is feared,
will be injured by the western pro
gross of agriculture, or else dense
ignorance IS the excuse for such silly
ideas. Already there is a home mar
ket for far moro cereal products than
are raised. The increased production
of wheat will induce the erection of
more Touring mills. It makes us dis
gusted to hear this rank old cry of the
'hide-bound' against immigration Of
h~usbanamen. It takes no more capt.
tai to farm here than in Dakota.
The latter Territory was, but a few
years since, an unknown, ~uninhabited
plain commonly supposed to be a
desert. Now it can almost feed the
world. Who comprise the grand
army OF Dakota tillers Of the sol?
Not the wealthy capitalists OF their
representatives; but men who came
there with neither means, friends nor
hackers. With energy and skill they
applied themselves to the possibilities
with which nature had endowed the
soil and the quick result is one of
the wonders of our day and genera
ton. The same conditions obtain in
this section of the country. The soil
has been tried and proved to be cap
able Of producing as abundantly as
that Of Dakota. ALI we need is enter
prising, thrifty men to take up the
lands and improve them. Nowhere
r the facilities so great for the com
bination Of farming and stock-raising.
"Grangers'' are welcome. Let them
come and win their own fortunes in
the development Of this glorious
country.
