DIPLOMACY SUGGESTED.
England Is Willing to Settle the
Behring Sea Matter.

Benr1nS sea matter.
LONDON. Aug. 2S.-The English gov
eminent has intimated to the United
States government it's willingness to ne
gotiate a settlement of the Behring sea
matter, and now awaits the American
governments reply.
ENGLISH PRESS OPINION.
LONDON. Aug. 23.-The Times says:
There is curious want of seriousness
about the Behring sea seizures. 1t APP
pears to be intended to brighten away
Victorian sealers by sham formalities of
capture, and not to exact the usual pen
allies. America appears to think that
this course will appeaSe the Alaska
company, please the Irish electors,
and yet not provoke British reprisals.
But she has no right to play the game
of ''bounce" with the weapons of Illegal
capture and search. Unless England
takes some active step, America will be
perfectly content with an interchange
of views until doomsday. Americans
will not find Us unreasonable on the
score of preserving the seals from ex-
tinctiOn; but if they persist in refusing
to discuss any settlement, our only
course is to take vigorous steps to in
sure that our rights are respected.

THE great obstacle in the way of fe-
male suffrage is the Indifference and
opposition of the women. The number
who care to vote where they have
chance is discouraging to those who are
sweating to secure to them their rights.
A law in Massachusetts, requires the as
SCISSORS to inquire at every house
whether any of the women want to vote
at the school elections. Recent reports
of the assessors in the cities show that
not onesin fifty will vote, and some
even resent the invitation, and don't
talk sweetly TO the inquirers.

of the road on the road out The road
is found to be in perfect condition from
end to end, and the party will start for
Butte to-day. In conversation heldin
Helena. regarding railroad matters, Mr..
Hannaford said that the Northern Pa

now. '.The road" said he. sis doing an
immense business, and things never
looked more entirely satisfactory than
they do at present. | hear that
Mr.. Shelly is coming to st. Paul to take
prominent position in the Manitoba

said that the Manitoba and Montana

Wants to Reply.

Mr.. EDITOR: On the 18th Of last
September Marshal Soper published
a letter in the Daily Bulletin signed
r. A. Lyman, in which my name
was referred to in several places and
in manner calculated to injure me.
1 replied in full to that letter, to the
Marshal, in gentlemanly way and
signed my name to it asking him as
a favor to publish it also, which up
to the present time that gentleman
has failed to do. Perhaps he is sat
isfed to let the matter rest, but am
not. Article III. of the Constitution
says, "All men may freely speak,
write and publish their sentiments
on all subjects" It would appear to
me from late experience, this should
be changed so as to read ''some
men may" as l find it depends a
great deal on who the parties are
whether or not they may be heard

The French elections are now
over, and the Gallo Republic comes
out of the struggle stronger than
ever. The Boulangists have sub
sided and taken the name Of ''Revi
sionists," but did not disclose any
apparent strength when the trial
came. General Boulanger has left
England and gone to reside in the
island of Jersey, where he is within
sight of the French coast; but dare
not set foot on the soil he pretends
to love so well. The conservative
Republicans have won the day
against all the French political fac
lions, and this may be held to be a
declaration of peace on the part Of
France. The Bouiangists were com
mitted to an aggressive policy, while
the Conservative Republicans, pur-
sue the opposite. Unless matters
change in France very considerably.
and in a way totally unlocked for at
present, Boulanger and his follow.
ing are politically dead. The news
of the result, as indicated above, has
been received with pleasure in the
United States; but with very little
rejoicing in England. Boulange
had many sympathizers in England
and the British colonies; but tn
English indifference springs from
motive different from the success O.
want of success in any particula
person or faction. The Englisl
aristocracy are naturally opposed t
republics, and this principle Pre-
badly guides English feeling.

Congress of American Nations.


The Congress of American nations
which is soon to be held, has not
settled down to business. The Wis
itors from the Central and South
American countries have been junk
citing about at the expense of the
United States government, and have
been having high time of it. JAS.
G.. Blaine made the address of wei
come to Washington, and was elected
President of the Conference. The
Democratic papers at Era started a
story that the CHILEAN representatives
would withdraw in consequence, but
the Chilians at Era vigorously de-
MED it. The European countries are
alarmed at the prospect of Pan
American commercial union. The
English and German papers warn
the South American countries
against it as being hostile to the
trade with Europe. They say that
it would ruin SPANS commerce
The whole project is attributed tc
Blaine's train. A commercial union
scheme for steamship subsidies
and an American silver dollar is al
most certain to be adopted.

the first available means to destroy
the effect of any apparent attempt

kindly permit me to say, that the
Bulletin of Saturday last, published
an article which purported to be a
report of the transactions at the
meeting held of Friday evening OF
the Mechanics and Workingmen's

and garbled that the impression is
apt to be conveyed that the usual
bellicose breathings "agln the gov
eminent" and "agin" everything
else, were given vent to on the oc
casion. I desire to officially con

so far as advanced, will permit cap

Mr.. EDITOR: In one of your
locals of to-day's issue in reference
to the Portuguese funeral that took
place yesterday, you convey the
idea, that only one Portuguese soci-
ETY. was represented on that occa-
sion, whereas, the funeral cortege
was composed of two distinct Portu-
guese societies existing in the city,
viz: the Santo Antonio Benefcent
Society and the Lusitana Benificent
Society. The Santo Antonio being
the oldest of the two was the first IN
front having the Hawaiian band,
and the Lusitana Society coming
next had the Portuguese band. In
all there were present more than 2OC
members of both societies. Both
attended the funeral because the de
ceased, Manoel Medeiros, barber

societies. The president of Santc
Antonio Society instructed me tt
