BETTER LATE THAN NEVER.
The National Democratic Commit
tee Now Realizes That Some.
thinC Has HanDened

NEW YORK. Nov. S.-The campaign
is at last ended in this city, and things
are fast settling down to their normal
condition. The various campaign head
quarters have closed up with the excep-
ton of the Republican and Democratic
national executive committees, and
these will probably be abandoned to-
morrow. The national Democratic COM
mittee now comedies for the first time
the election of Harrison. 1t makes this
statement:
When the national Democratic committee
claimed the state of New York on Tuesday
evening by 10000 to 10 200 majority the
figures of the returns then received fully
justified the estimate. The reports from New
York city and from large communities in the
interior of the state showed Democratic gains
and the first reports from Brooklyn were
to the effect that the majority there was
10000 The telegraph wires were very
crowded and the transmission Of the COM
mittees bulletins to the West was considera-
bly, delayed. There is evidently misappre-
hension in some parts of the West as to the
time at which the dispatch was sent.
The particular dispatch referred to
was received in the West from the
Democratic committee claiming New
York by 10000 to 1900 majority. When
the dispatch arrived out there it was
wholly at variance with the returns
from this state. The Democratic CONF
mittee say it was not intended to de-
ceive any one, and that at the hour it
was written the bulletins of some New
York papers were giving the state to
Cleveland by $1,000 plurality. :

The comparative table in this district
with the vote of 1856 cannot be given,
for the reason that Nelson, Republican
candidate for congress, had no Demo-
cratic opponent, and received 1887
votes. The following table therefore
shows the COmStOck-Canning vote:

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, Nov. S.-Gen.
Harrison began to receive congratu-
latory kilograms from New York and
the East as early as o'clock on election
night.:.:when the first meager returns
indicated his probable election. From
that moment to the present writing,
kilograms and letters of congratulation
have poured in upon him from every
city in the Union. The table in his
library is piled with bundles of these
kilograms. there being fully 5.OoO.e So
long as there was a shadow of doubt
resting upon the resultof the election.
Gen. Harrison was not disposed to per-
nit the publication OF any congratulory
communications. The labor of asserting
the kilograms, which continue to ar
rive, was begun this evening. From
among the number are the following:

II No Stronger Competition What q

Have.

ton Wears q Hat That Comes
Down Over Its Ears.
What Misfit ! Give The Ears a Chance.

We are the first to the front
with a complete line of dress
goods, and we mean to stay
there, and this declaration re-
fers as forcibly to every other
line Of goods we handle. We
have always been regarded as
pre-eminently the dress goods
house of Montana and it is
with pleasure we announced that
we begin this season with a
stock Of silks and dress goods
better in every particular than
ever before. It's larger, more
diversified both as to fabrics
and designs, and the values are
better. If you send to any
Eastern City for samples it is
probable that what you will re-
ceive will not afford such choice
of selection as our stock now
presents. AS to prices we can
and will compete with any
Eastern house; in fact we must,
or our sales will not be what
they ought to. be. If we had
no stronger competition than
"Butte's Biggest (?) Mercantile
Institution" we would have a
veritable picnic; but we must
meet Chicago and other cities
where business men figure bus
mess down to a point that pre-
cludes the business foolishness
select free lunches. etc.
which has so conspicuously
characterized the modern adj
ministration Of "Butte's Big
gest (?) Mercantile Institution"
The size of the hat which that
institution wears comes down
so far over it's ears that il
seems to be oblivious of how
ridiculous the misht appears.
But we must tell of dress
goods.
Twentv-fonr new shades of
wool surah twills in mixed
grays, browns, terra-cottas,
mulberry, blacks, French
grays, London smoke, etc.,
with elaborate chenille en-.
broidered fronts; no two pat
terms alike.
Fourteen new shades of SAL
inch habit cloth.
Twenty-four new effects in
English suitings, in plaids,
broken plaids, gray and
brown mixtures, etc., at zoe. a
yard. !.
Eighteen new shades Of
wool surah twills by the yard
a fabric that has just come
from the loom, and which
fashion has received with open
arms.

BEAN SHOOTERS.

How Mischievous Boys are Now Annoying
the Hackmen of the City and Doing
Damage.
The latest craze OF the boys OF Butte,
especially those who have been barred out
of the girls sewing bee, is the use OF the
bean shooter, so-called. Unfortunately
they use small pebbles instead OF beans,
and make hackmen the targets for their
attacks. Sunday night there were two &C
cidents as the result of the malicious mis-
chief OF the lads, and the parties aggrieved
are so indignant that if the boys can be
identified, which is probable, they will be
prosecuted. In one case the driver was
struck in the eye and the organ was seri-
ously hurt. At the same time his horses
were struck and ran away, but fortunately
were hauled up before any damage was
done. In the other case the rises were
hit, and being a fiery team, rah'bff, and be-
coming unmanageable, collided with a tele-
graph pole and made a wreck Of the vehicle
and harness. The damage is not stated,
but it WAS considerable.

In New Orleans a house-to-house can
vass is being made by a citizens commit
toe to revise the city registration, which
has been suspected OF being much in need
of careful revision. The result shows
nearly $4,000 fraudulent registrations.
This is rather above the usual percentage
for a city the size OF New Orleans, but
where there is such a large floating popula-
ton of roustabouts it can be readily &C
counted for.

The entire confidence and support Of the
public is not only gratifying to us, but stimu-
lates us to the most extraordinary efforts to
continue to merit and enjoy it's benefits. We
have this season secured every feature
known to reputable merchandising that will
contribute to hat result. Our spring pur-
chases are not only larger n more COM
plete than they ave ever been, but they en-
brace contracts made with leading manufac-
turers, by our Eastern buyers who are al
ways in the market which will enable us to
sell goods at a reasonable profit for prices
that merchants are forced to pay for goods
who buy in Butte from samples shown.
We shall spare no expense that will make
shopping pleasant or profitable for you. Our
principles are practicallyliberal. Webelieve
in disbursing every dollar possible in Butte,
n for Butte; and we desire NO success with
out sharing it's benefits with you We are a
soulless monopoly of greatest advan-
tsages, most complete stock n
lowest living prices. Just such a
monopoly as the people want; and a
monopoly we'll calculated to strike terror
to the hearts and call forth the curses Of
ranting idiots, whose schemes of robbery n
trickery are spoiled by our broad principles
of fair and honorable deeling with all.

Railroad Hand Murdered and Thrown in
&# a Fence Corner ut tho Fort.
@ FORT AssINNIBoINE, February 26. -
Especial to the Miner, by the Rocky Noun
taip Telegraph. Last Wednesday night
during a severe windstorm the sentry on
post at the commissary s~torehouse was
startled by what seemed to be the sup
pressed cries and means OF som man near
Che hay stack. The corporal of the guard
vas called and notified but several visits
10 the neighborhood between the hours OF
i and 3 failed to discover anything or any
one. Nothing more was thought OF 1ne
matter until yesterday afternoon when,
While a troop OF the First Cavalry were
Making out their horses for exercise, the
oergeant in command discovered the
N DEAD BODY OF A MAN
lying in a fence corner of the outskirts OF
the post. There had evidently been an at
Tempt to conceal the body, for it was
partly covered with plank, and snow had
also been thrown over it and pressed down,
but the melting OF this had left it in view.
An examination revealed the fact that the
man had been murdered, "a his body, face
and hands were covered with cuts and hor-
rible bruises, and his clothes, the planks
and vicinity were covered with blood. The
body was identified as that OF a railroad
hand named James Lynnis or Lynch, en-
ployed on the Marias section Of the Mani
toba road. Suspicion was soon directed
toward some OF his companions who had
on Wednesday night visited the post ira
der's in his company, imbibed until drunk
and quarrelsoms, and then adjourned
outside
TO FIGHT IT OUT.
From some parties present it was learned
that one returned and boosted that he had
done up Lynch in a lasting fashion and his
clothes bore evidence Of a bloody fray.
Acting upon this Information Colonel Otis, |
the commanding officer of this post, carly
this morning sent out a detachment OF
cavalry under Lieutenant Bonus, First
Cavalry, to the Marias, and they returned
about 4 this afternoon with q man named
Patrick Crugan, the section boss OF the
Marias section, who is strongly suspected
OF being Lynch's murderer. His clothing
still has blood marks upon it, and he has
been recognized as one OF the party present
and drinking with Lynch Wednesday night.
He now lies ia one of the cells OF the post |
guardhouse awaiting removalby the proper
authorities to Fort Benton. Lynch was
buried in the post cemetery at l O'Clock
this afternoon.
