The young ladies in the senior class at
Colby are showing what educated women
can do in politics. There is a faction of the
class who want all the Offices. The young
ladies no not sympathze with this SELFISH
ness, and they have exactly votes enough to
defeat it by making a tie, so they are attend
ing every class meeting and are showing
that they can filibuster as long as the boys
can. Last Saturday, according to the Fair
field journal, the class ballotted from a. m.
until p. NJ, without electing the officers or
firing out the young ladies. n

There appears to be no ground whatever
for the cutlery on the part of the Democrats
against President Harrison for the prompt
issuance Of his proclamation admitting Mon
tana to Statehood. The Territory had CON-
piled with the conditions of the act Of Con-
grsss, and there would have been no excuse
for delay. The Democrats think the frauds
they perpetrated In Silver Bow county would
have been more certain to succeed had the
State remained Territory while longer,
and really their outcry against President
na'..---. is- because he refused to help them
OUT though OF course tnat 10 not the way
they put 1t.

There was an impressive temperance lee
ture in the brief testimony given In the Cro-
min case by the German woman, Mrs. Mo,rtel,
on Tuesday. The attorneys for the defense
tried to break down her evidence by show
ing that she had been arrested several times.
She admitted that such was the case, but ex-
planned that the arrests had been at the in
stigation of saloon keepers who were trying
to break her down for keeping her husband
away from their saloons, She was perse-
vering, however, and the date of Cronin's
murder was fixed in her mind by the fact
that she was at the time prosecuting suit
against a saloon. keeper who had sold her
husband liquor. There are probably hun
dreds of women in Chicago who are carrying
on just such hopeless fights against the hab-
its Of weak husband and the oppressive
and unblusbing tyranny Of neighboring
rumseller. The great majority of these con-
ficts are unheralded; though none the less
bitter for the weaker contestant. 1t was the
exceptional fortune of Mrs. Moertel that her
battle should be made famous on two CONT
nents. 49,

Those conservatives who continue to con-
tend that woman's only proper place is by
the hearthstone and al the cradle side, must
conclude that the Latter Days are here.
The advertisements in the Boston papers
announce that "Miss Amelia B. Edwards,
Phi. D.. Ii. D.. LII. D., etc., win deliver a
courseof six illustrated lectures on Egyptian
Exploration and Discovery" The worst Of
1t is that Miss Edwards is thoroughly COM
petent to fill the place which she occupies.

DULUTH. Minn., Jan. 2.-The strike
yesterday of coal handlers on the. st.
Paul IL Pacific docks was followed to-
day by one of larger proportions extend
ing to the Pioneer. Ohio and Northwest
ern Fuel company's docks. All these com
patlies attempted to reduce wages from
So to S1.75, beginning this morning. The
Northwestern men were the first to go
out, and were followed by the employees
of other companies. A general meeting
of strikers is now being held at the
West end, but no definite agreement is
likely to be reached, as there is no COM
plete organization. The ESt. Paul IL
Pacific company, which allowed men to
work at the old figures after serving
notice of reduction, will again make
make the reduction. and the men will
stop work. There is no trouble likely
to occur, as the coal trade is paralyzed
by continued warm weather throughout
the Northwest.
The number of coal dock laborers out
OH strike is nearly 500. 1t has extended
to every company doing business here,
The strikers meeting has adjourned
without accomplishing anything eX-
cepting an agreement to resist the pro-
posed reduction. The coal companies
are firm. and say the strike is ill-timed
onthe part Of the men.
