reference to President Cleveland.

ored and loved-there is one we should
love and honor far above the president
of this great country. Do you know

What a Leading Stock Paper
Says About Montana

FROM CONGRESSMAN SPRINGER.

FROM CONGRESSMAN SPRINGER.
He Defines What Is Meant by the Voting
Clause in the Omnibus Act.
Consequent upon the uncertainty
which seemed to prevail In the minds
OF voters as TO the proper interpreta-
ton of the clause in the omnibus act
which provides for the election OF
three delegates, "but no elector shall
vote for more than two persons for
delegates to. such convention" the
YELLOWSTONE JOURNAL wrote TO
Congressman VIM. NJ. Springer, father
of the bill which has now become an
act and asked him to favor our readers
with the understanding Of the clause
which was had by the house aud the
committee who considered it in pass-
age. Following is Mr.. Springer's re-
ply dated at Springfield, ILL.,, April 20,
1889:
"The clause in the admission act,
which provides that "no eiector shall
vote for more than two persons for del.
egates to such conventions does not
authorize voter to cast two votes for
one candidate and one for another; or
one and half votes for one candidate
and one and half for another, MS IL
done In Illinois for members of the
house of representatives of the state.
The clause means just what II says, no
more and no less. II is not the cumu-
lative system, but the simplest form Of
minority representation. There are
three delegates to elect In each district.
Each voter may place upon his ballot
the names Of two persons only. Orhe
may place one name only on the bal
lot. Each vote counts but one for the
individual Who receives il. The cum
ulstive system which We have In Hi
nois would afford more perfect rep
resentation Of the minority: but it Ia
not SO easily understood. Hence II
was deemed best to adopt the simple
form of minority representation con-
tanned in the act. lam
Yours very truly,

Most people have experienced the
curious fear which comes upon men
at the edge of steep. Probably nine
out of ten mortals recoil with a GER
tain terror froms the depths Of space
before them when on house roof or at
the edge Of a nAlkral precipice. In
some cases this fear amounts, indeed, 10
q horror, the keenest which can be ex-
perienced outside OF the nightmare
state. In any other danger the dispo-
sition is 10 seek safety, but on the
steep the motive is TO plunge at once
into the gulf. II Is probably this un-
reasonable impulse which gives tho
peculiar sense Of horror 10 the situation.
With most people the measure of the
fear probably depends, in good part,
on the general. state Of the nervous
system. On tirst going 10 q mountain
country, / find it impossible to face
difficult passes which abound with
precipices, but after q month, the ef
feet Of the tonic air and out door life
removes in good part the irritation
which such situations at first produce
The general occurrence Of this pecu
har fear is a matter Of great scientih,
interest All other fear may be en-
planned, as II commonly is, by the Dar
winian hxnothexiA Aainsls whicl
