HELENA, Mont, November 22.-Gov.
ernor Toole this afternoon Issued a
proclamation in which, referring to the
conflicting claims OF those Legislators
who hold County Clerk certificates, and
those who hold State Canvassing Board
certificates, he says:
WHEREAS, One set of certificates has
been issued and delivered pursuant to
the election laws of Montana by the
County Clerks of the respective. counties,
and by virtue of the act of the Territor-
ial Legislature persons holding such GER
tificates are declared entitled to member
ship and deemed elected for all the pur-
poses OF the organization of the Legisla-
ture, and
WHEREAS, When so organized such
legislative assembly becomes the Judge
OF the qualifications of it's own members.
"Now, therefore, I, Joseph x. Toole,
Governor of the State of Montana, hereby
designate the courthouse of the county
of Lewis and Clarke as the place where
said legislative assembly, comprising
persons holding and presenting certif.
Gates Of election from said County
Clerks, shall meet"

TIE Chronicle affects to have found a
reason for the refusal of the San Fran
cisco Cham Der Of Commerce to unite
with the Chambers Of Commerce in other
parts of the State in forming California
Chamber OF Commerce. 1t says that
there was sinister underlying design in
the formation Of State Chamber to ad.
vance the interests of the Southern Pa
citic Railroad in its controversy with the
Government. OF course this is all boeh.
The true reason why the San Francisco
Chamber withdrew is that it's members
are selfish and exclusive, and look upon
the organizations in the rest of the State
as provincial bodies, not coming up to
the standard Of gentility of the San
Francisco Chamber, many OF whose
members are of the peanut order in
commerce.

LONDON, November 22.-Persistent ru-

olution is in progress in Cuba. Dis
patches from Paris report the same ru.
NOR there, So far it has been impossible
to trace the rumors to any definite
source. The assumption is that they
sprang up through the belief that the
revolution in Brazil would be likely to
exert powerful influence with the dis
contented republican element in Cuba.
The fact that there is strict censorship
OF news dispatches at Havana makes il
possible for revolution now to get under
way in the island before any definite in
telligence can reach the outside world.

Two OF our esteemed contemporaries
are evidently in o Pickwickian mood.
Wednesdays Express contained an arti-
Gle mentioning the fact that Gen. Boyce
had been indicted for blackmail. and
giving facts and runners concerning that
event. Thus far our evening contempt
rary was the only journal that had
alluded to the matter. The Tribune OF
the next day contained very febrile
article referring to the Express (it could
have referred to nothing else, as nothing
else had been said snywhere) in which
there were some emollient references to
bowling ours, envious rivals, and 60 on,
in the same courteous and high flown
strain. The Express of the same day
very naturally supposed its kibes were
being trod upon, and proceeded to re-
mind the Tribune of sundry services it
had rendered that journal in the matter
of sheriff's attachment, fire in the
Tribune press room, and more of like
character. The morning journal at once
responded that it had no invidious refer.
encss to its evening contemporary. and
the latter replied in kind. Peace,
smiling, blessed peace, reigns once again,
and we have convincing evidence that
the famous club scene in the Pickwick
papers was not written in vain. How
pleasant it is to see journalistic brethren
dwelling together in harmony?

SALT LAKE Cry, November 22.-In
the Mormon investigation today Henry
W. Lawrence was recalled. He had
heard many Mormon sermons preached
which were dialoyal, and the general
tendency OF the teachings of the church
all the years he belonged TO it was to
ALLEVIATE the feelings of the people from
the Government. He believed the
Mormon people would become loyal if
the leaders did not teach disloyal doc
trines.
Witnesses were also called to testify as
to the demonstration in 1879 in honor
Of the release of Daniel Wells, who was
committed to the penitentiary for refus-
ing to answer questions about polygamy,
and how many thousand Mormons
paraded the street, trailing the American
flag in the dust and hooting Federal
Judge Emerson, also IS to the halfmast-
ing OF American flags in this city July 4,
1885, on the City Hall, Tabernacle,
County Court House and the home OF the
President OF the church.
Joseph Follett was called to refute the
testimony of Wardell. He said he had
never heard of the killing of Green for
apostacy before. The prosecution
offered in evidence paper served on
member OF the Mormon court by Bishop
Hisward. citing member to appear
in the Bishops court and be tried
for obtaining judgment in the Federal
Court against a fellow Mormon. This
was introduced to demonstrate the truth
of the charge that the church dictates
and controls temporal as well as spiritual
affairs,
Extracts were read from sermon by
John Taylor, in which he said if the
Government attempted "to cut out the
Mormon ulcer. the star of the United
States would set in @ sea of blood" An
extract was read from recent editorial
in the church organ, announcing polyg.
amy as a firm and unalterable law OF
God.
The attorneys for the church denied
that polygamous marriages are now bs-
ing solemnized, but when questioned
admitted that no record of such mar.
fiages was kept, and that they have no
actual means of knowing if they were
being solemnized or not.
The case closed this evening, as far as
the prosecution is concerned, with the
introduction of an editorial from the
church organ on the death of John lay.

who hunted him to death would be

We HAVE received a circular from
Aberdeen, Dakota, signed by the two
Governors of North and South Dakota, in
which the reports that have gone abroad
of restitution and even starvation in
those States are severely deprecated, but
not Indignantly denied. The circular
says that in an incongruous population,
such as these new Territories have re-
ceived, there would necessarily be indi-
vidual cases OF want, and isolated COM
munities in state of distress. But
it disclaims the existence of suffer-
ing to any large or general extent,
and then gives tables to show
that the agricultural production of the
two Territories has been not only volu-
minous enough to feed their own people,
but with vast surplus to supply the
wants of people abroad. One expression
in the circular will bring broad grin to
every face, and that is when it speaks Of
people coming there in great numbers to
renew their health sin our incompatible
climatel |" The home of the blizzard and
the binding storm an incompatible
climate" is good as an expression, but
iamentable as fact.

CERTAIN advices received from Cuba
raise the suspicion that revolution is in
progress in the Ever Faithful Island.
There is little doubt that strong revolu-
tionary sentiment has pervaded Cuba
ever since the execution of the patriot
Lopez; but the military and naval
strength Of Spain in the Island has
always been so great that every revolu.
tionary uprising has been crushed in
the bud. The easy way in whic h
the Brazilians effected the down.
fall of the Empire and the erection of a
Republic in it's stead has doubtless had
a contagious influence upon the liberty
loving patriots of Cuba, and we would
not be surprised if some of the holder
spirits have rekindled tie revolutionary
fires in the Queen of the Antilles. 1t ia
to be hoped that ii rising is effected it
will be so strong that no Butcher Burriel
will be able to suppress 1t.

The Brotherhood Committee An.
swers the League Nlanifesto.
CINCINNATI, November %. - Ewing,
Andrews aud Ward, the committee OF
the Brotherhood of Ball Players, tonight
issued lengthy reply to the leagues
address OF yesterday, in which they
charge there were many misstate-
ments. They say the assertion that no
player ever had been transferred without
his consent, is false, and ask if it can be
called consent where man must submit
or get out OF the baseball bust
ness. The charge of the league
magnates that the brotherhood proposes
to transfer players without their con-
sent, is branded as misststement.
There is no reserve, no arbitrary salary
limit, nothing which encroaches upon
the players natural rights. The
statement of the league that
the brotherhood contract tor 1887
had never been violated, is
denied emphatically, tie committee say.
ing it was outrageously violated when
the classification law was passed, and in
every case where players salary was
reduced by that law. The league, in en-
acting some things the brotherhood has
asked, has acknowledged the injustice
of their former position. Regarding the
matter of having kept their plans
secret as long as they could, the COM
mittee says let the public look at the
obstacles the league is now throwing in
their way, and the methods employed
to defeat them, and then say if their
plans should have been made public in
the beginning.

woman who Slew Him.
New York. November 22.--Mrs.
Southworth, who shot Stephen L. Pet
tns this morning, appeared at the Cor.
oner's office this afternoon. She was
affected to great degree, and her mind
was apparently in no condition to COM
prehend what was going on. She could
not answer questions intelligently, and
her lawyer told her to say nothing. She
was committed for hearing next Tues
day. According to the story told by her
friends, she became acquainted with
Pettus through mutual friend number
of years ago, and one day he succeeded
in drugging her while they were out to-
gether, and accom- plished her ruin. Later
it was found necessary to resort to NAL
practice, as the result OF which her
health was wrecked. In order to avoid
exposure at the time of the wrong, Pettus
made profuse promises of substantial
provision for her, and to save the name
Of her family, which is highly respected
one, che kept quiet. Upon her recovery,
however, he met her reminders of his
obligation with derision, and finally, it is
said, circulated the report that Mrs.
Southworth was his discarded mistress.
