McNaughten and Sanford. to discuss
with the western members If the sen-
ate and house the question of arid
lands of the west, 0akes proposes
that congress shall give to each Of the
western states the arid lands within its
borders. The Northern Pacific will
tender aid. Companies are to be
formed for the individual states 10 i'm.

the claim that n proposition to apprp-

with strong opposition In the east.
They also claim that congress will

from you, II Is more than doubtful IL
that would srm Us with the necessary
aithority. The power that the consti.
tuition cOnfers on the house cannot be
delegat ID away.
Would not such an attempt on our
ptt be justly regarded ss an intrusion
and an INVASION Of the rights Of a CO.
equal branch If the legislative assem-.
bly,, always inclined TO be jealous OF its
prerogatives? How should we regard
the action of tue house in !nvestigat-
ing the election of any member Of our
body? 1t strikes US that il would be
ss impolItic as II would be illegal or
futile.
so thinking We must decline your
proposition, and in conclusion request
you 10 do something that Is clearly
within your p0wer-help us organize

induced To run away YESTERDAY. The

any serious Injuries, as was seen by

SENATE CHAMBER, HELENA, Dec.
8, lss9.-To Messrs. Baker, Thornton,
Parberry, Hennessy, Hoffman. Redd,
Mcnamara, and b, cker:
Gentlemen: Replying more fully to
your communication OF the 9th inst,
We would say for your private infor"
nation, and not forIu,hing into print,
first, that we think the reasons you
assign for not meeting with us and
entering, as far as possible, upon the
discharge Of our c0mmon public duti,s
are untenable and insufficient. Have
you not treated the governors
proclamation with the same contempt
as you charge urou portion of the
members of the other house, without
even the pretex. they had, or fear that
breach OF the peace might occur?
We fail to see how keeping the sem
ate disorganized helps to organize the
house, or wherein Two divided houses
are better than one. Instead Of fol-
lowing bad example, would it not he
better to set good one?
While We are willing to believe that
your course of action is actuated by
high motives Of public good, yet they

seem most natural to us that II Is evil

In reference TO your suggestion that

the election in precinct 81 was con-
Quoted, we certainly hare our honest
doubts Of the fairness and integrity Of
the election at that precinct. in com
mon with our constituents, and would
do anything In our power to solve the
unfortunate existing differences and
bring about sspeedy and honorable
adjustment Of the controversy; but il
strikes us that we, like yourselves,
have NJ Jurisdiction 10 the premises.
There il no election Of any member Of
the senate involved In doubt, which
this investigation could solve. The
only members whose election Is in
yolved 10 the vote Of precinct 81 are
In the house Of representatives, and
our constitution gives each house the
sole aud exclusive power to Judge OF
the election Of its own members.
II we should attempt TO investigate
this vote, II would only be In the char
