Erroneous Apportionment.

The chairman of the Territorial Demo
cratic Committee. in issuing the call Tor the
territorial convention, in the apportion-
ment 81 delegates. overlooked Fergus
COUNTY rHriFefy. This error was Pr0ba6Ty
due to the fact that the territorial auditor
in his annual report for 1856 incorporated
the returns from Meaghcr and Fergus coun-
ties in one table. The total vote east in
the two counties Tor j. X. Toole was ,5O1,
Meagler county casting Sc? and Fergus
636. Upon the basis Of apportionment- one
delegate for every 100 votes east for the
Democratic candidate - Meagher count y
would he entitled to eight and Fergus to
six delegates. Chairman Clark's attention
was called To this, aud in response he says:
HELENA, Mont, Aug. ~, 1858.
Chairman Democratic County Commit
tee-Dcar Sir: The bungling statement OF
the apportiOnment, as published, grew out
of figures got from Helena, which were in.
correct. See Independent Of tomorrow for
corrected statement.
Yours truly,
W. a. CLARK.
The call, as amended, gives Fergus count
six delegates and Mcaghcr county seven
instead Of the latter thirteen, rs originally

"a sew Way to Keep Clean.
TChicagO Herald

Over on Wabash avenue is a new firm
in a new business. CLEANLINESS next to
godliness" is its motto on its printed cir
culars, and it proposes to keep people
clean, or at least help to do it, for 30 a
month. For S. a month this concern will
place and keep in your Office or store a
mirror, washstand, wash bowl, towel,
change the towel as often as it gets dirty.
and replenish the soap whenever 1t may
be necessary.
ave are doing toerably well, said the
chief pro ;ector of the enterprise. There
is an enormous number of towels in use
in the business district. though many Will
go without washing from the time they
leave home in the morning until they
return at night because 1t is such a
bother to keep themselves supplied with
the necessary articles. | should think it
would be worth So a month to man to
have a good, clean wash and a wipe on a
dry towel once day, shouldn't you?
"But the greatest obstacle we have to
contend against is the janitors of the
buildings. They are in the towel bust
ness themselves, either personally, through
their wife or some friend Some janitOrs
l know make twice as much out of the
towel business in the buildings they have
charge of as they get in the way Of salary.
Of course a man who depends on jani-
tor for his clean towels is frequently left,
and the soap runs out or something is
wrong, but business men like to be on
good terms with the janitor, you know,
and so they give him so much week for
the clean towel.
Yes this is a new business in Chicago,
but in the east they've been at it for two
or three months, though down there they
furnish nothing but towels, while we put
in everything a man needs to make his
toilet with In New York | understand
they make speciality of giving a man the
same towels all the while, so that he does
not have TO use towels that anybody else
uses, but that is all 'foolishness and not
one Chicago man in hundred is so par
ticular as to care for such a thing.
