A Complimentary Tr ib,0te.

Mr.. Geo. p. Conner, who has held a
government position at Nashville,
Neb., for several years, has been in
vited to take a walk by the new adj
ministration, and the Nashville Sun
thus refers to the change. Georges
many friends here are proud of his
success, and all know that the com.
pliment which the Sun pays him is
well deserved. Here is what the pa
per says:
TUESDAY of this week Mr.. Geo. p.
Conner, receiving and shipping Gle rk
for Pine Ridge Agency, received off,
cial notification to deliver the keys
ofhis office and other government
property in his possession to his sue
cessor, Mr.. j. +. West. No reason
for the change is givin and none
could be given except that Mr.. Conner
has been in the habit of voting the
democratic ticket. So far as compe.
tency and careful, painstaking work is
concerned a change could not possibly
result in any material improvement
and the chances are at least ten to one
against new force doing SO well as
the old. Mr.COmer has made a
model official. In fact his work has
been sOnearly perfect that he has al
different times received voluntary
compliments from high officials in his
department, something rather out OF
the ordinary in public service. He
was perfectly willing, however, to be
sacrificed for purely political reasons,

OFFICE SOUTHERN STANDARD,
McMinnville, July II 1889.
This is the dull season and not
much doing IN local produce trade at
present. We are frequently asked
what we will pay for dried blackber-
ries. We can not answer the ques-
ton just now. The crop is immense
and if all saved the price will be very
low. 1t is estimated that there is
three million pounds Of last years
crop on hand. Prices will necessari-
ly be low if even half the present
crop is saved. We can only say to
country merchants and dealers in
dried blackberries, that they must
exercise their own judgement and
what they think safe. We prefer
to wait little to see what amount OF
the new crop is saved. The indica-
ton is that q is as much as they are
likely to be worth. All dried fruit
will probably rule low, especially
peaches.

Mr.. Hugh j. Brady, the new
Deputy Collector at this place, ar
rived this week to take charge of the
office, and has been busy getting
the run Of things. We understand
that it is Mr.. Brady's purpose to
move the Office to Sparta. This will
be vigorously objected to by the dis.
tillers of this county, and the Depart.
ment will likely sustain them in the
objection, as there is more stilling
done in this county than in all the
other counties of the division togeth'
er.
All the appointees of Mr.. Hills
man in the Revenue service united
in a petition to the new Collector, Mr.
, Num-, to retain Mr.. u. P. Lee, a one

service, Mr.. Lee now having charge
of the special bonded warehouse a

Lee that he would be retained, bu
on Thursday Mr.. Lee received from
Mr.. Num- a request for his resigna

SCROFULA

1t is that lmpurity in the blood, which, &C.
cumulating in the glands of the neck, pro-
duces unsightly Jumps or swellings; which
causes painful running sores on the arms,
legs, or feet; which developes ulcers in the
eyes, ears, or nose, often causing blindness or
deafness; which is the origin Of pimples, can
cerous growths, or the many other manifesto
tons usually ascribed to "humors;" which,
fastening upon the lungs, causes consumption
and death. Being the most ancient, it is the
most general of all diseases or affections, for
very few persons are entirely free from it.

SEMI-W EEKLY
WELCOME TO GREAT FALLS.

Great Falls welcomes cordially the
delegates, the wool-growers and wool
buyers who are her guests today. She
appreciates the honorable position and
noble work entrusted to the delegates
who might properly be called state-bulld-
ers because the constitution which they
will frame is the foundation on which
statehood rests. Accept 1t and we enter
the galaxy of states; reject it and we go
through further term of probation. ke-
gardless Of party ties therefore, we well
come the delegates and invite them to see
the imperial domain known as Northern
Montana. ~
The wool growers we regard as our
selves. Their names and faces are famll-
lar to us. They pursue an honorab'e
calling with pluck and add thereby te
the growing wealth Of Montana. We
welcome them with as much cordially al
guests as we do when they come witt
wool or enter our stores to buy supplies
We welcome with like warmth the buy
ers. They are the magicians who turl
the wool into gold. May their shado'
(nor their prices) never grow less.

WE have naught to do with the print
ing conflicts, which, like the rumble OF
an earthquake, at times disturb Helena;
but we most emphatically assert that the
convention now in session, is sovereign
body, which must not be controlled IN the
matter of printing or anything else by
Secretary Walker. The convention de-
riyes its lowers from the United States
congress, which, to its credit, gave it the
widest authority. It it monstrous to sup
pose that body SO constituted must order
printing subject to Secretary Walkers
approval. Let the convention follow the
example of Mirabean, who, a hundred
years ago, hurled defiance at the French
king when he sought to interfere with
the freedom Of the constitutional conven-
tion, which abolished so many abuses in
France.
Great Falls tribune., 1889-07-13

The many states and peoples Of which
Montana is composed are reflected in the
nativities of the members of the constitu-
tional convention. The largest number
of the rs members come from New York
which was the birth place of 10. New
England is the native place Of IA, nine of
whom come from Maine. Kentucky is
represented by eight delegates and Mis-
souri, by six-an unexpectedly small num-
bes for that parent state. The Hoosiers
have five delegates and the Keystone
state three. The states which have only
one delegate are Ohio, Kansas, Iowa
Michigan, New Jersey, West Virginia
Wisconsin, Delaware and Tennessee
Illinois has given four delegates and
Minnesota three. In foreign countries
Ireland is represented by four delegates
England one, Germany four, and Canad'
two. 1t is glorious spectacle to see mer
of all states and many nations engaged il
raising that noble r-structure-th
state of Montana.

and has given the customary notice Of its

THE CONVENTION.

nance and public debts of which Hon. u
b, Collins is chairman includes Messrs.
Hershfield, Conrad, Chessman, sargeant,
Marion, Meyers, Warren, Mayger and
Knippenberg. 1t may be seen from this
that banking and other large interests
are represented on the committee while
the four cities of Butte, Helena, Great
Falls and Benton are accorded spokes-
men. Major Maginnis is chairman

ecutive departments while Hon. ..
X. Toole heads that on Legislative de-

eleven who are to deal with 'apportion-
ment and representation"
The Cascade delegates are accorded a
liberal share Of committee work. MIR.

manship, is member of three commit
tees, namely: estate institutions and pub
lie buildings "mining water and mining
: rights" and boundaries, public lands and
homestead exemptions" Mr.. Collins
presides over the committee on finance

THE water question continues to give
Helena concern. All the owners of water
rights have combined to form the Helena
Consolidated Water company which is
under the leadership of Mr.. Wooston.
This corporation no doubt expects to be
awarded the contract tor which the city
invites bids. The proposed contract
calls for 20 miles Of mains and full
supply of water for all purposes. The
bidders are to state at what rates they
will supply the city and people with
water. Helena should persist until she
has full supply of water.
