The Great Falls leader. [volume] (Great Falls, Mont.) 1888-1900, 1889-09-07

For some time there has been rumor
atloat that all artistically illustrated week
IL journal is to be published on the Pa
citic coast. and now, to our great surprise,
it takes definite form in an announce
ment by the publisher of the West Shore
that he will issue the first number Of
such journal on the 14th of September.
Fifteen years ago Mr.. Samuel began the
publication i'll Portland of feeble
monthly paper which has steadily grown
until it has reached the proportions OF
the handsome West Shore Magazine as
we know it today, and now he takes a
bold step forward and establishes week
ly journal which will be maintained at
the highest standard Of illustrated week
lies in the country. 1t will require the
expenditure Of much money and labor to
render the venture successful, but the
West Shore, with its splendid equipment,
long experience and established position,
will be able to succeed where most 9TH
crs would fail. Special attention will be
given to graphic illustrations Of events
happening on the Pacific coast and the
topics of special interest to our people
Its numerous and excellent illustrations
will be It's chief feature, and these will
increase in number as the journal be
comes settled in its groove. Such an un
dertaking certainly recommends itscl1
very highly to every citizen, and its sue
cess will be direct benefit to every sec
ton of the west. The price will be tel
cents copy, or $4.O0 a year.

Market Report.
New York, Sept. 6.-Bar silver 9255s.

MAJOR MAGlNNIs, in his recent speech
before the Helena democratic club, said
he wanted to be the first representative
in congress from the state of Montana.
He also claimed that if there were some
millionaires in the democratic party they
were not aristocrats for they had built
baths where the people could wash and
he clean. Now this is something
especially for the great unwashed de-
mocracy; and the major is generous to
a fault In yearning to be the first to carry
the ill-tempered democratic mortar OF
the besmirched democracy from Montana
to Washington. He ought to remember
that they have no special need for any
more dirty linen there-that they have
plenty at home and that the democratic
washing at the national capital would he
more offensive and malarious than the
old central cesspool, whose poisonous
fumes killed Garfield. Better stay at
home, major. or come to Great Falls and
join our republican club.

OFF WRONG AGAIN.

Not least among the many other de-
forn,ities of the shaky thing around the
corner is its almost criminal recklessness
and libelous taking into its polluted lips
the names of honored and honorable citi-
zens. It says, 81. +. McClelland did not
run we'll for city treasurer last spring,
when Harry Ringwald beat him.
1t is wholly work Of supererogation
to remind that stupid organ Of dark
lanternism that Harry Ringwald, its vaunt-
ed Goliath of Gath, never measured lances
with j. F. N1cClelland in a contest orcity
treasurer OF any other office; thatMr. Nc
Clelland was never before at any time a
candidate for any office il Great Falls OF
Cascade county; in fact that he was never,
prior to his present nomination for coun-
ty treasurer, candidate for any political
Office or position.
If it could be of any possible benefit to
the said benighted luminary, we might
peradventure volunteer to give it little
historical information, free, gratis, for
nothing, without money and without
price, to-wit, that Mr.. McClelland was
nominated last spring for the office OF
police magistrate, but peremptorily de
clined. We might also add that notwith
standing his refusal to allow his name tt
he used, such was his popularity, that he
received number Of votes for the Office
i Now it is not to be presumed that thi
established fact will leave any lasting
impression on the mind of the concern
aforesaid-if, indeed, it have any mind
We shall not be surprised to hear of it to
morrow referring to Mr.. McClclland a
having been an unsuccessful candidate
for high admiral of the main top or ,
West Point cadetship.

THE REPUBLICAN CANDIDATES.
J. F. M'cLEL1-AND.

j. r. MCLEIAlAAND.
Of the republican candidate for county
treasurer, ]. F. McClelland, we can con-
idently say that no one stands higher in
the estimation of our citizens.
Mr.. McClelland was born Nov. Is, 1858,
in Canton, Bradford county, Pennsylvania
the grand old republican district of
David Wilmot, one of the founders and
champions Of the republican party. He
came to Montana about eight years ago
and, for the past two years, has been q
resident of Great Falls.
Mr.. McClelland has had experience in
responsible positions which eminently
qualities him for the office of county
treasurer, for which he has been nomi-
mated.
For two years prior to locating in Mon
tana he was dining-car conductor on the
Northern Pacific railway, after which he
was promoted to the position Of assistant
superintendent of dining-cars on the
same road. This position he resigned in
1885 to accept the management of large
hotel in Portland, Oregon.
Preferring the climate Of Montana, hi
removed with his family to Great Falls
where he accepted the position of chic
clerk in the Park hotel, which place III
held until he entered into real estate
partnership with Mr.. Will Hanks under
the firm name Of Hanks & McClelland
which was terminated by the opening o
the Cascade bank, wherein Mr.. Hank
contracted partnership relations with MI
F. p. Atkinson.
Mr.. McClelland is an experienced ant
accomplished book-keeper. man o
unimpeachable integrity, genial AM
courteous gentleman, we'll known an
popular among all of our citizens an
should be elected to the high and respon
sibls position for which he is nominated

"AND then again. says our esteemed
but fossilized democratic oracle of the
hendwaters. $50 many American citizens
who have always enjoyed free ballot
cannot afford the time and expense to
travel from 20 to so miles to register and
will therefore remain at home on cleo
tlon day." The American citizen who
would stay at home rather that go 20 or
SO miles to register is not worthy of the
privilege of voting.

The Stanton Twins.

NEWARK, N. j., April 1.-TWO years
ago Miss Jansen, pretty and accom-.
plished girl of eighteen, left her home in
Stockholm and came to relatives at
Caldwell, in this County. On the steamer
coming over Miss Jansen met John and
Henry Stanton, twin sons of an English
merchant of Stockholm. Both the young
men fellin love with her, but her pre-.
ference was so strong for John that
Henry apparently gave up the role of
suitor.
The resemblance between the brothers
was striking and they we're constantly
mistaken for each other. John and his
sweetheart were soon engaged and last
Thursday evening was fixed for the wed.
ding. The Rev. Mr. Swenson was on
hand to perform the ceremony. The
groom arrived without his brother, whom
he said was sick. The ceremony took
place, and after a reception the couple
left the house. Before they had gone q
block the young man said he must go to
New York and nurse his brother. The
bride wanted to accompany him, but he
refused.
At noon yesterday detected and tired
looking young man arrived at Bloomfield
and asked for Miss Jansen. When she
saw him she ran to greet her supposed
husband. He repulsed her and wanted
to know why she had tricked him, at the
same time he handed her q telegram. 1t
was from Philadelphia and was signed
Jansen. It was dated Thursday. 1t
requested him to meet her at the Couti.
mental Hotel at eight o'clock that evening.
All was confusion, but gradually the
truth came out. Henry Stanton had
decoyed his brother to Philadelphia and,
trusting to his close resemblance, had
gone to Caldwell and married Emily.
Mrs. Stanton will at once apply for a
divorce,
