THEIR COUNTY SLATE.
A Few of the Faithful Meet and Ex-
press Their Views on Their
Weakness---Notv Very Well
Pleased With the
OutI0ok

A meeting, wholly impromptu in its
character, yet significant in its results, was
held yesterday in the card room of a we'll
known saloon. There were present four
staunch Democrats-two Missourians, an
Irishman and German. The converse
tion soon turned upon politics in general,
and then drifted into a discussion of the
county ticket of their party.
81 don't like it too much" said the Ger
man. There's the head of the ticket, Judge
Mcconnell, for senator. A good man but
too pronounced in his temperance views.
He is known widely in Tennessee as
strong prohibitionist, and then you remem-
ber his objections to certain applicant for
the clerkship of his court, when he first
came to Montana. He then gave out that
he would appoint no man who drank. My
countrymen don't like q man like that.
We all like our lager and don't want to
send q man to the State senate, who would
vote for prohibition if the question came
"True enough" dolefully rejoined Mis-
sourian No. 1. "Apd besides that, he's a
carpet Dagger and has only been here a
few years. He's none the worse for that,
but lis not a popular certificate of charac-
ter in Montana. just think of Mcconnell,
too, being on the same ticket with ToOle
after the latter's speech in Congress against
Cleveland's Southern appointments for
Montana. Judge Mcconnell, think, is a
good man. but he is mighty weak candi'
date"
"Then there's the commissioner ticket,
said the Irishman. "Edgerton's unpopular
Hogan is not very well known in Helena
and Knight, the strongest man of the three
has absolutely refused to run. The COM
mittee still has his name on the ticket, but
it will have to be taken off, and change
in nominations always hurts"
"Yes, and Pm not in love with the legls
lative ticket, either" said Missourian No
2. Why didn't they put up such men as
John T. Murphy, Shirley Ashby OF Col
Hundley-all good old timers and popular
too? A few of them may get their party
vote, but the others will run away behind
1t takes mighty strong man on our sld'
to be elected in this county, but the con
vention did not seem to think so.
"Why didn't they nominate some new
men for sheriff and ASSESSOR" spoke vi
the Irishman. "Here we've been votini
for Rohrbaugh and Beckett for th'
last six years and last fall Bicket
only got through by the skin of his teeth
Rohrbaugh has been defeated several times
and goes into this race as beaten horse
like to see new men given show"
Here the quartette of disgusted parti
sans lowered their voices so that our In
formant could catch only snatches of thei
conversation, but when he left the worthie
were still hsrping on their weak count.

REPORTS CONFIRMED.

WASHINGTON, Special Senior Valent, th.
Brazilian minister, this evening received
two dispatches from Rio de Janeiro fully
confirming and corroborating the news OF
the overthrow of Dom Pedro H. One of
the dispatches came from Bocayura, the
new minister Of foreign affairs, and merely
announced the success of the revolution and
organization of the provisional republican
government. The other. from Minister OF
War Constant, announced the establishment
of the republican government, the forma-
ton Of the new cabinet, and also that the
dethroned emperor has been directed to
leave the country. Everything in Rio, the
dispatches stated, was quiet and tranquil.
Senior Valento declined to state whether he
had been requested to resign or whether he
intended to resign, merely stating
that his resignation was matter
for future consideration. Among navy
officers no surprise was expressed at the
news of the revolution Commodore
Ramsay, chief of the bureau of navigation,
said that twenty years ago, when he was in
Brazil, there was general feeling that
when Dom Pedro's reign ended repub-
ican form of government would be in
stituted. Lieut.. Barry, who only recently
returned from Brazil, says that the change
which has come to pass was openly talked
among Brazilians as probable to occur, and
they expected it any time. To the people
of Brazil he said it could not appear to have
been sudden.
