Somehow the bosh about graveyard
seepage" didn't scare the people a bit
On the contrary, they thought the matter
over, and came to the conclusion that
they needed more, instead of less, of that
water. 1t is the purest of mountain
water, and can be supplied plentifully.
The people want it for domestic and fire
purposes. And the Democratic officials
will see to it that they get 1t, or know
the reason why.

into the empty barrel, when an explosion OF
the gas generated in the wood by the
whisky took place, resulting in it's being
blown into the middle Of the street, while
the child was burned about the face and

from all directions, under the impression

FLAG q GO BACK
The Reasons Why q Swiss Laborer Was
Not Allowed to Land at New York.

WASHINGTON, April 9.-Secretary Win.
doom has sustained the action of the col.
lector of customs at New York in refusing
to allow q Swiss emigrant named FLAG to
land, and, as a consequence, he will be sent
home at the expense of the vessel which
brought him over.
It appears that FLAG came to this coun.
try in response to an advertisement in
serted in a Swiss newspaper by George
Baul, OF Arascho, at the instance OF H.
Barnegan, Of the New York embroidering
works. 1t was shown that FLAG paid his
own passage money. and had made no con
tract with the New York company.
He, however, brought a letter from Baul
to Baruegan, saying he had engaged him
as an embroiderer. He also made up his
mind six months ago to come to America,
and had awaited himself Of the present OPP
p~ortunity to secure work in advance. The
collector held that FLAG was prohibited
from landing by the provisions OF the con-
tract labor law.

CONSIDERABLY AsTRAY.
The New York Mail and Express" Of
April A publishes the following:
Judge Joseph Davis, of Montana, a
prominent Republican politician, was at
the Fifth Avenue hotel to-day, and pre-.
dicted that the newly-made state would 70
Republican for many years to come. He
said:
"Our Legislature recently passed q regis.
~tration law and a law authorizing the Aus.
tralian system OF voting. The latter will
give the people a chance to vote as they
choose, free from the interference OF rich
corporations. The registration laws will
prevent the DEMOCRATS from casting 80
many illegal votes. Within the past few
years wonderful changes have taken place
in the political sentiments OF our people.
A year or SO ago there were 900 Rspubli.
cans and 5000 Democrats in my county.
and now there are over 1900 Republican
and some $500 Democratic voters. The
Republican increase has been phenomenal.
All the people who come in from the states
are Republican. and believe In protection.

talk OF sending ex Governor Hauser. Heis |

1t might be a step toward his complete con-.
version to Republicanism. He is a ~protec.
ZIONIST now He has many friends among
the Republicans, and, ifelected. would make
q good senator"
Who is Judge Joseph Davis, anyhow ?
Is he j. J. Davis of Bozeman +?
However, it matters little who he is.
His statements deyiate considerably from
The straight line. Had he been inter

he would have doubtless madaa different

have found it necessary to qualify his as

HOW MANY sOLDIERsa

At the election, Monday, the members
Of the G. A. r. expressed, in a most sig.
nifcant manner, their appreciation of
MIR. Warren's conduct in securing the
appointment Of Mr.. George Irwin for
United States Marshal instead of Colonel
jerks, an old SCARED veteran Of the war,
who was endorsed most heartily by the
Post Of this city, and was a man of un-
questioned character and ability. The
appointment Of Mr.. Irwin, In the face of
Colonel jerks application, was a most
shameful and open disregard Of the law
of Congress, which says, other things
being equal, soldiers shall have prefer
ence for positions in the gift of the gov
eminent.
1t is an open secret that Russell b.
Harrison and the Hon. Thomas Carter
visited the Attorney-General's office in
Washington and made pressing and per-
sonal appeals for the appointment of MIR.
Irwin instead Of Colonel jerks. It was
through their personal and persistent
efforts that the Attorney. General was in
duced to recommend and the President
to appoint Mr.. Irwin.
Mr.. Warren has received his reward
for the treatment he gave his old COM
rade, and it is more than likely that the
old veterans will remember Mr.. Carter
when he again comes before the public
and asks for their suffrage.
Outside Of all politics, it does seem
that these men who periled their lives
and their fortunes for this country
should receive some consideration at the
hands Of the Republican party when
good, fat offices are to be given out. Sol
diers, we ask you in all candor to look
over the List OF appointments that have
been made in this Territory, upon the
recommendation Of Russell B. Harrison,
son of the President, Charles s. Warren,
member Of the National Republican
and the Hon. Thomas Carter, /
Delegate-elect to Congress. and see how
