ODD PARAGRAPHS.

Ii was noticed at the Paris exposition
how rapidly two-wheelcd vehicles in
France are supplanting four-wheelers.
There were 3OO.OD foiir~wheeled and SOO,-
0O two-wlleeled vehicles i'm the country i'm
1874. The number of the latter is now
l,1OOOUOO. while that of the more aristo-
cratic conveyauccs remains just what 1t
was 10 years ago.
Ii is n curious fact that the fine old
Seventy-ninth regiment of Cameron
Highls,ntlers, which is stationed at Bal
moral during Queen Nictoria's residence
i'm Scotland, does not contain "a single man
i'm the corps whose name is Cameron. On
the other hand there are no less than :aO
Mac,lonalds i'm the ranks. In order to
appreciate il,c l,i,licro,Is side of. this state
of affairs il should he added that the High
land clans of Cameron and Macdonald
have been on terms of bitter cnrnity for
several centuries.

HALF WAY AND NO FARTHER

The democratic members who repre-
sent Silver Bow i'm the lower house at
Helena decline tn withdraw under any
circumstances. Nobody can find fault
with these gentlemen: on the contrary
they act like men who. believing i'm the
merit of their course, propose To- stay
with il, sink or swim.
tine way 10 break the deadlock was a
plan under the terms of which the CON
testants in Silver Bow county should
withdraw, leaving the issue to be set
tied by Il new election i'm that county
When this plan was first announced,
the STANDARD remarked that any such
scheme would. of course. be subject to
the approval of the members repre-
senting Silver Bow. Whatever the re-
publicans may conclude. il is clear now
that the democratic contestants will
not enter into any agreement which in
wolves their withdrawal Thursdays
debate in the house settled that point.
These men are unquestionably in the
right. The have "a legal claim tn their
seats in the legislature. Their title has
been doubly confirmed, they were the
choice of the people in the district they
propose to represent, and if il is their
Judgment to hold out to the end. no
man has a right to call their action i'm
question. On the contrary, they merit
commendation for their steadfast ii,iel-
ity to course which they know to be
right.
Meanwhile. there comes up again the
veNing question of needed legislation.
The STANDARD has shown how in AN
absolutely non-partisan way. that ques-
tion may he met The democrats have
expressed their Willingness to recede To
the extent that legislature be- framed
out of democrats and republicans i'm
exactly even proportions. If republi-
cans propose To do the square thing
they will meet their antagonists half
way. u to this hour the republicans
have refused tn enter into this arrange
ment yet il is the utmost the democrats
will yield and there's the end of il.

integrity and courage. Possibly, how
ever. Governor Hill would defend his
assertion on matrimOny by declaring
that MIR. Cleveland was of no use
to Governor Hill. and that Gov
ernOr Hill had no use for Mr..
Cleveland i'm 1894. or in 1895, or
indeed i'm any subsequent year, espec-
tally the year 1883: and that moreover
neither will have any use for the other
i'm 1892 or at any future period 80 long
as they both shall live. But the fact
remains that the American people have
vastly more use for Mr.. Cleveland than
they will ever have for Governor Hill,
married or single.

GEN. GRANTS TOMB.
The Proposed Refinement In the Ma
tional Cemetery at Arlington.

Senator Plumb ON Saturday introduced the
following concurrent resolution:
THAT the Congress desires the removal of
the remains of the illustrious soldier and
statesman, Ulysses S. Grant, and their inter-
ment in Arlington National Cemetery and that
the Pre- sident be requested to convey to the
widow of this eminent man such desire, tender
ing to her on behalf of the nation all neces-
sary facilities for such removal and nterment."
The resolution would probably have passed
the Senate at once, but Mr.. Plumb thought it
better to wait until there were more Senators
present. Today the resolution again went
over at Mr.. Plumb's request He wants the
sense OF the country, as expressed in the news
papers, before any vote is called for
The New York Herald of today says: ''The
concurrent resolution offered by Senator Plumb
IN Congress on Saturday providing for the re-
moval of the body of Gen. Grant from River
side Park to the Arlington National Cemetery
and rendering all necessary facilities to Mrs.
Grant for such removal and interment did not
create much surprise in this city Yesterday.
Some such step had been limited Mt
heretofore and the failure of those
having charge Of the Grant monument fund to
raise the amount of money which they deemed
necessary to erect q suitable memorial in honor
of the fallen commander of the Union armies
had been assigned as reason why it might
eventually be taken. II Senator P.umb's reso-
tion which was laid over for consideration until
today, is adopted and Mrs. Grant sees hit to ac-
cept the offer for the removal of her husbands
body there will be some regret, but the general
opinion as sounded yesterday in various QUAR-
tiers, will be that 1t Is proper solution of
vexed question"

THE FRENCH IN ARGENTINE.
Mr.. Blaine Declines to Discuss the Mon
roe Doctrine.

reporter took to MIR. Blaine last night at
the Presidents cottage at Cape May Point the
dispatch intimating that England and France
might interfere by force with affairs in the
Argentine Republic. He interrupted a con-
versation with Gen. Harrison to read the dis
patch, but when asked if the United States
would under the Munroe doctrine per-
NIT this interference, replied: II have
nothing to say on the subject now"
The inference was that he did not expect any
interference, but if it should be attempted it
would be so important a matter that any utter
ance from him ought to be deferred until that
time. Talks with people at the hotels who have
access to the Presidents cottage resulted in
finding them unanimously of the opinion that
the result Of the Pan-Amercan Congress was to
practically establish a protectJ-ate over South
and Central America by tf United States as
against European powers IN ,refore it was
urged Mr.. Blaine would be obliged to protest
against any foreign interference.
