REV. HOWARD, Hewlett or Hewlett,
whose case has caused such a COM
motion in legal and church circles,
has recovered one cent damages from
the court before which he cited his
defamers to show cause why they
should not pay $4,000 for declaring
that his name was not Howard. The
case stands very largely as it was be-
fore the jury returned their verdict
Rev. Howard's friends consider him
vindIcated and say that the damages
awarded only prove that he was not
seriously injured, but that it estab-
fishes his claim as legitimately How

verdict shows that Towards charac-

NORMAL GREEN of the Western
Union Telegraph intimates that the
contract between his company and
the United States does not permit the
government to put its own price upon
messages, and that the case may be
relegated to the courts if Mr.. Wanna
maker does not come to time. Then
the courts will be called upon to
put a valuation on the privileges
granted the Western Union and Mr..
Green may find that the balance is
against him. Best way is for the
government to take the whole con-
Germ and run it. Green and his tribe
have made millions out of it now let

HERNDON's Life of Lincoln is book
that will have a, tremendous sale. 1t
throws more light on the character of
the man Lincoln than all that has
been written. 1t shows the duality
of the great commoner's mind as moth
ing else ever has attempted and is a
clear revelation of his mental evolu-
ton. 1t may change some estimates
made of the martyr president but it is
a valuable addition to the literature
of the most interesting and intensely
American individual in American
history since the revolutionary Pc
Rod.

THE PIPESTONE PASS.

The old, old fight between Helena and
Butte will be waged afresh over the
Pipestone pass. The Butte surveyors
have ascertained that Pipestone pass af-
fords an easy passage through the main
range for railroad line. Now Butte
contends that the Northern Pacific
should build its projected line from Gal
latin to Butte upon this route and not by
by way of Boulder. If the latter route is
selected Helena will secure most Of the
Jefferson valley trade, which would flow
to Butte if the Pipestone pass route is
chosen. Butte likewise expects that the
main route Of the Northern Pacific may
be so altered that the express trains from
St. Paul would go to the coast by way OF
the Pipestone pass, in order to avoid the
Mullan tunnel and obtain an easier grade
and shorter route. Of course this woulc

is understood Meanwhile the young

IMMIGRATION.

A correspondent Of the Rocky Noun
tain Hnsbandman, writing from Phil
brook, says: "The intending immigrant
is urged repeatedly to repair hither, take
him up a ranch for one thing, and avail
himself of all the advantages which such
step would open up to him. Itmay not
be inappropriate to the situation to sug-
gest the inquiry as to where he is going
to find it? On the reservations? Very
possibly, but considering the rush which
has been made thither in quest of desira-
BILE locations, and judging from the dis
appointments which many have met with
there, it is safe to conclude that future
prospects of new arrivals in pursuit of the
same object are not too f1attering.
"1'he simple truth seems to be--and
nothing is gained by any CLOSING Of the
same-that all locations really desirable
for settlement and atfording to the settler
much scope for subsequent enlargement
in stock growing are now already taken
up and awaiting patent from the land Of
fee. This IS certainly the case through
out all those counties outside the reserva-
tions, and with some exceptions it IS ap-
plicable to those particular portions OF
the territory which recently have been
opened up to settlement"
We deny emphaticlly that any persons
have met with disappointment who
went to the reservation in quest Of "de-
sirable locations People who have
gone there in search offertile land with
a good climate have found it and can still
find it today. The rush has been large,
but as the area thrown open to settlers is
| 100000 acres which would provide
| 1l2,5OO farms of 100 acres each, there is
enough to go around and people who are
not unreasonable can pick out lands tc
suit them. -r..-
But apart from the reservation there is
an immense area Of fertile land upon
which no one has filed. In northern
Montana alona, thousands of farmers car
find homes in the broad country which
extends from the main range of the
Rocky mountains to the Judith basin. Ii
Cascade county last month settlers flee
on 10000 acres. Land grabbing has gone
on pretty freely along the Sun river ane
Missouri valleys, but the abundance o1
land is such that there are thousands o.
acres left. Through the Board Of Trade
and other agencies at their command, thu

THE city election is not far off and it is
time our citizens were giving the matter
some attention. The TRIBUNE favors a
non-partisan election and at the same
time the selectl on of good men for the
different offices, Ifparty strife and feeling
are eliminated this result might be better
attained and those who have at heart the
best interests Of the city should work to
that end. We are yet young md must
learn to walk before we can run, Econ
omy in the administration of the city's
affairs is the one thing needed and that
is the platform on which all candidates
should stand. We learn that Mayor Glib
son will not accept a denomination, al
though he could have it unanimously if it
were his wish. As his successor, we have
heard the name of DR.. j. H. Fairfield
mentioned and the suggestion IS good
one. Although he is a strong republican
there would be no objection to the doctor
heading non-partisan ticket, which
should be made up of like good men
without regard to party.

CONSTITUTIONAL CONVENTION,

Ina table compiled by Colonel Wheel
Ell (rep.) for the Helena journal, he shows
the vote which each constitutional con-
vention district cast at the last election,
Without intending to do so, Colonel
Wheeler answers conclusively the Inter
Mountains cry that the territory had
been gerrymandered in the interest OF
the democratic party. The table shows
that exactly two districts and no more
gave democratic majority at the last
election! One of these is Choteau coun-
ty and the other Gallatin county, where
doubtless owing to the 267 votes cast for
the prohibition candidate, Clark had a
plurality of o.. This showing ought to
recall the Inter Mountain from the error
of its ways, but it is so saturated with
part1sanship that it could not suppose
that Governor Leslie, Chief Justice Nc
Connell and Secretary Webb would place
the public convenience above party inter-
ests in making the apportienment.
1t by no means follows that the con-
vention is to be republican. Delegate
Carter has already allowed shrinkage
of $500 votes on the republican vote
which is moderate ii one takes into ac-
count how much that vote was sweled by
the tariff cry, by personal animosity to
Mr.. Clark and by general cussedness and
perversity on the part Of some democrats
who sold out their party to promote self
ish ends as was seen in the Lakes, (Cas-
cade county, precinct where written Or
der was received from leading Helena
democrat directing positively that the la
borers should vote the Carter ticket.
None of these baneful elements will en-
ter into the constitutional convention con-
test. The Montana democracy will act
unitedly in selecting good men as dele
gates to that important body. They will
not try to thwart the provision in the
omnibus bill which insures that one-third
of the members shall belong to the mi
nority party. But they will remember
that the model constitution of 1884 bears
the impress of such stalwart democrats
as Mathew Carroll, Samuel Langhorne
j. X. Toole, T. E. Collins, Marcus DAILY
and the late Thomas L. Napton, and they
will conclude that the state will be safe
again in such hands. "."#.

EVEN Col. Sanders, who is very reserv-
ed when appointments are in question,
expected that f Hershtield's party services
would be duly rewarded. The Inter
Mountain says: SIn regard to the appoint
ment of governor for Montana Colonel
Sanders said that while it was always safe
to bet on dark horse, he believed that
Mr.. Hefshfield would receive the appoint
ment. There was no chance to make a
mistake in tile whole lot, but he was
rather confident that Mr.. Hershfield
would be the dppointee."

SUPERINTENDENT CouoH takes a ho1

SUPERINTENDENT CoUCH takes hope
full view of the copper business. Accord
ing to the Inter Mountain he says that his
faith in copper is still unshaken. He es-
Inmates the present surplus at from 150,
600 to 100000 tons, part of which is in
this country and part of it in Europe. 1t
is held by French and English banks, who
advanced money on it to the French syn
dictate. They have no interest in throw
ing 1T on the market at an exceedingly
low figure, and he believes that the repre-.
sentatives of the great American produc-
ers will come readily to an agreement
with them on their arrival As to the
price of copper, Superintendent Couch
said he believed that producers would
get as much as they have been getting
heretofore, viz: about 13 cents a pound
The trust has acted as middleman and
the profit from the high price of copper
went to its Golfers. The producer and
consumer will now deal directly together
and he thinks the former Will get jus
about as much for his product as hereto
fore. Mr.. Couch also said that j. B
Haggin of the Anaconda works, Mr.. Lew
ishon of the Boston q Montana and rep
resentative of the Calumet & Hecla were
to,arrive in Liverpool last Saturday.

THE NEW GOTERNOR,

nominated today and perhaps confirmed
Immediately, will be accepted cordially
by the people Of Cascade county, regard
less of party. Governor White has a good
reputation among our people. He IS an
old-timer, who has done business as mer-
chant and banker for about 30 years in
Montana. He is considered strong
party man, but there is no reason to sup
pose that he will establish personal gov
ernment at Helena OF that he will use
his office to promote factional ends re-
gardless of the public interests. He is
called in the name of spoils and party
plunder to succeed Governor Leslie, who
has been removed with unseemly haste
and in open disregard of even the slight
pretence which this administration makes
to respect the civil service reform plank
in the republican platform. But we hope
that MI. White will rise above all mean
considerations and administer the duties
of his office as Governor Leslie has done
for the benefit Of the entire people. His
tenure oil Office will be at best only seven
or eight months. It Will not be worth

1T is proposed in Minnesota to enact a
cattle inspection law like that which is in
force in Indiana. This will be done to
check the power of the Chicago combina-
tion. 1t appears that the "Big Four'
have made such inroads on the St. Paul
trade that firm which handled 1900 tc
l,4O0 steers monthly eight or ten years
ago now slaughters only 500 to 900, al
though the meat business has increased
considerably in the meantime. The

GREAT FALLS TRIBUNE.
TUESDAY, MARCH 26. 1889.
SEMI-WEEKLY
INGRATITUDE.

If republics are not ungratetul, parties
often are. Certainly the republican par
ty of Montana stands charged and openly
convicted of this worse than crime. To-
day B. F. White is practically governor
of Montana and will remain such for the
brief period Of territorial vassalage. Who
is B. F. White? He is a. good citizen of
Dillon engaged in the sale of agrlcultur-
al implements and is also connected with
banking house. He has an excellent
record as business man, but was never
known to neglect his personal affairs in
the smallest way for the sake of his party.
He would rather stay at home any day
and sell hay rake than feast at a re-
publican barbecue. He has always voted
the republican ticket and invariably ac-
cepted county Office When it came his
way-and this is the extent of his ser
osas oa,aa for the party. The appointment
not earned the honor and Gld liz, He had
it.
On the other hand Mr.. Lewis II. Hersh
field was an oren candidate for the gov
ernorship. He was supported by Dele
gate Carter and many OF the prominen
republicans Of the territory. He visited
the president elect at indianapolis ant
mingled with the place-seeking myrmid
ons at the national capital, to further hi
candidacy and make sure his calling
The republican party of Montana owes
everything to Lewis H. Hershfeld They
never won battle in Montana eXcep
when he was leader. Every republican
victorty has been Hershfeld victory. II
1872 he left his counting room to take thu
management of the campaign and for tn,
first time republican delegate to con
gress-Wm. II. Clagett-was elected; il
1888 he again organized the party, infus
ed life into it, and Thomas H. Carter wa
elected delegate to congress. In this con
test he not only gave his time and brains
but poured forth his money generousl,
and as a result-"'twa famous victory.
The famed French army under any othe
leader but Napoleon would have found
Waterloo much sooner than it did, TIL
republicans of Montana would neve
have known the sweets Of single victor
but for the generalship and liberallty 0

he asks for the slight recognition an.
paltry honor of the appointment as gov
ernor, ad interim, it is denied him be

he will have no Hersht1eln in his. In ae-
cordance with this conversion which was
as sudden as Paul's, Carter writes on Fri
day that White is most acceptable man.
He declares in fact if not in words that he
can eat crow although he does not hank
er after it. Next day R. B. Harrison
who has made White his second choce
writes to his father that White would
"heal all differences among other candi-
dates and wound none" The candid sim
plicity of this makes Carter write another
letter. He has discovered that White is
"a native born en"-nothing Irish,
German or French about hlm-that he
enjoys 'excellent health' and ssis the
head Of one of the most highly respected
families in Montana, the family consis-
ting of wife and several bright and
beautiful children" Hershfeld also
joins in for fear that the above qualifica.
tions would not carry off the prize. He
says: "He is not connected with any rail
road corporation nor has he at any time
antagonized any class or set of men II
the territory. He has not solicited the
appointment, but can guarantee his &C
ceptance of the place if nominated" al
this is pure comedy. There is good grount
for asserting that White was chose1
for governor before Carter or Hershfielt
wrote the above letters. They were sim
ply allowed to go through this burlesqu'
to heal their wounded feelings and make
them appear happy. If any one doubt
