We cl,ocrfully give space in this issue
to IL communication from Hon. Gran
Vile Stuart taking exceptions to an
article in the last issue of the ARGUS
Our remarks were not prompted 10y
any feelings of hostility toward either
of the ecntlcmen named for the legis-
lature-far from it. We have great
confidence in their integrity and ability
and disposition to do what is for tho
hes; interests of the people. The acts
of what is known rs the Cow Boy
legislature" and the complaints oi
one or two men as regards certain
features of the stock saws, was the
direct cause of our remarks. Now,
if all the stock legislation OF last ses-
sion was wise then le members showed
superior fitness to lesislate on stock
matters alone. for nearly all Of the
other legislation was bad. Ii was
asserted, whether true or not. that all
other legislation was contingent upon
or subscrvient to that Of stock legis-
lation. This complaint may have
originated in count les but little inter
ested in stock matters. however. The
greatest stock county in Montana
should not complain unless the opera
tions of the law are injurious.
Complaint has been made in regard
to the branding law. the parties
asserting that while the law prohibits
them from branding between 1.-THE first
day OF August and the first day OF
September" etc. the large owners
disregard the statutes as regards dates.
and brand when they see lit. without
the presence of 1.-TWO responsible ciii-
zcns." Another complaint j.. that
stock detectives work industriously
for largccompanies in recovering :, ork
but the small owners have to pay for
such recovery out OF thcirown pockets :.
Whether these statements are true or
not We are unable To say. Mr.. stuart
has given those who have grievances
or fault to find with the stock laws
n chance 10 he heard. and our columns
are always open for such discussions.
1t would seem that after stock men
had obtains, u. desired legislation
they were prepared to vote ior any
thing. We trust if Granville Stuart is
elnt,.d he will labor ior the repeal oi
the salary law and ,heiniquitois road

Ii there was ever any doubt in tn.

the United States as To the Justice oi
verdict rendered against the Chicago
ever dispellcd by the violent and intern
perate language used by the anarchists :
in the Chicago court room, when asked
10y Judge Gary whether they had auglt
to say why judgment should not bc
pronounced against them They all
spoke in the most bitter and danger
ous language, dcnouming the authori-
ties and our whole social organization.
II needed but this finishing touch to
show to the American people the true
character of this dangerous element in
our civilization, and the lesson has
not come too soon. Great credit is
due to the Judge, the jury and the pros
ecuting attorney, as well as to the de-
ternined public opinion back of them,
for the promptness and effectiveness
of the prosecution just closed. The
last proceedings in the ease were like
nothing else in American criminal pro-
ceedings so much as the trial of that
other anarchist. Guiteau. The coun-
try, and Chicago in particular. isto he

bezzling pension clerk who suddenly
left Pittsburg a day or two since. He
WIS captured in house of i'll repute

The prisoner Gays that he is not Gay,
but that his name is Samuel Dennison,
a commercial traveller from Buffalo.
In his pocket, however, were found
several letters addressed to Samuel X.
Gay and cards bearing that name.
These the prisoner says were given
him by Gay, but he offers no further
explanation. He will be held as a
fugitive from justice until the PittsburR

QUEBEC, July l9.-The steamer
Polynesian, from L verpool, which ar
lived at Point Lsvis early this morn
ing, brought Mgr. 0'Brien, Papal
ablegate from Rome and bearer of the
beretta to the Cardinal, Tascherau.
He was met by Grand Vicar Legsre
and proceeded immediately TO the
Parish Church OF Notre Dame De
LAWS, where he celebrated mass.
After dining he came across to Quebec
where he was welcomed by about
1000 persons. The II al lrity of those
assembled were IIish Roman Catholic
citizens, who came to meet their dis
tinguished countrymau. Aproces:ion
was there formed, members OF the
Irish National Association, accom-
panied by bands of music, preceding
the ablegste's carriage to the Cardinals
residence. All along the route the
streets were lined with people, and 1t
was with great difficulty that the
thoroughfare could be kept clear. On
arriving at the palace the Mayor
proposed three cheers for the
Pope, for the Cardinal and
Tor the aDleRate, WDlch we're
given vociferously. When the
ALLOCATE entered the palace he was
met by large number OF the clergy of
the diocese, who escorted him and the
company to the reception room, where
the Cardinal was awaiting his arrival.
Mgr. O'Brien advanced to the steps OF
the throne and presented his creden-
tials, and after an interchange of COM
piimentary addresses the ablegate re
tired. The Cardinal then addressed
the gentlemen present, referring to the
great honor conferred upon him. The
ablegate wore purple robes. He is
about six fest two inches in hight, is
As years of age, and has a fine
physique. The city is crowded with

THE CROPS In THE WEST.
THRDISASTROUS DROUTH ENDED
BY GENERAL RAINS.
Great Suffering in Kansas and the

Yield.

CHICAGO, ILL.,, July l9.-The follow.
ing crop report will appear in this
weeks issue of the Farmers Review,
While local rains have been experj-
enced in m5ny localities in the West
and Northwest, in some cases accom-
panied by destructive hail and wind,
there have been general rains covering
large areas aud bringing the drouth to
an end. The winter wheat has been
harvested in all but some extreme
northern portions of the wheat belt.
Its condition has kept we'll up to the
promise it made in early spring. Hay
and oats are being cut and both are
below the average on account Of
drouth. Pastures are getting very
short, and potatoes and other rain
crops need rain very badly. Corn is
generally in fine condition. clean and
we'll advanced, but it needs rain aud
is reported as alrea iy suffering in some
localities. The spring wheat continues
to run down in condition. 1t is now
too far advanced to be much bene
flied by rains. To the injury from
drouth there is added that from chinch
bugs and, in some localities, rust. Har.
vest alone will show its real condition,
but it does not now promise TO exceed
so par cent. of an average crop through
out the Northwest.
