The Result in District No. "a Not Yet De-
cided-Other Returns.
LIVINGSTON, May l7.-[Speeial TO the In
dependent l-As the returns are coming in
from the country towns and precincts the
election of Col. Geo. o. Eaton, republican,
is assured, but the opinion seems to pre-
vail that the contest between Joy, Field
and Myers will be very close. Seventeen
voting precincts in Park county give Geo.
o. Eaton, republican, 6S4; A. X. Joy, re-
publican, 522; w. r. Field, democrat, SIS;
b +. Myers, democrat, 46l. Cook City,
Myersburg and Nye City are yet TO hear
from. While Cook and Nye will poll a
very light vote, the vote virtually depends
on Myersburg, which is expected TO give a
strong democratic majority.
No news has as yet been received from
Cook, Myersburg or Nye City, and various
conflicting reports are coming in from Red
Lodge, which indicate that the result of the
vote in Park county as yet is very uncer-
tain.

The Best Test of Success.

Survival is the best test Of success;
but then survival may either be Of the
whole or Of a part only. OF much or of
little. The nan may survive as a liv-
ing organism-a geological specimen
but character may be gone, or hope. or
health, or happiness. The truly sue
cessful are they who carry with them
to the end that which makes life worth
living. who retain the sense of a pur-
pose and meaning in life, and who do
not. like James Mill. father Of John
Stuart Mill. feel that when the fresh
ness OF youth is past human existence
is a somewhat dreary thing. To the
multitude perhaps success in life is
gagged by money scale; to be rich is
TO be successful. to be poor is TO be I'M
successful; but this is far from being a
desirable standard to erect But few
can reap success according to this
idea; and the rest must reap failure
and discontentment A truer and bet
ter conception is that the man who de-
velops his faculties and cultivates his
dispositions Alright, who. amid the war
fare and vicissitudes of life. keeps his

temper sweet, his domestic and social
relations duly adjusted, and who thus
in a true sense lives through his whole
