IT has long been evident that the Re,
publican statesmen in tho house would
cheerlully destroy fairly good election
bill unless it retained the municipal abom-
nation known as the poll tax qualification
for voting. Back OF this contest there is
deeper significance that some OF these
gentlemen seem to realize. The people
who have oftentimes been DISTINGUISHED
through trickery and chicanery are watch
ing the movements of the bill with keen
interest. The time has gone by when
they can be bamboozled into accepting
stone for bread and some of the potential
statesmen Of to-day should not overlook
the possibility of the yawning obscurity
of tomorrow.

NJ. Thivrier, a workingman, elected as
sucht to the present chamber of deputies
in France, wears all the time in public
the blouse which is the badge of a la
borer in that country. NJ. Thivrier be-
gan work in the coal mines at Common
toy, France, when twelve years old, and
for twenty years remained in them, ham
ding the pick. Afterward he became a
~vinegrower and dealer in wines. He is
n Socialist, but not n communist, "for,
having" as a French paper puts it, SAC
quired his capital by his own hard work,
he cannot easily understand how that
capital should belong to all the world"
Through all his career he has stuck to
his workingman's blouse, and it was
largely upon the strength of hat pecu-
liarity that he was elected a deputy. He
is said to be n man of unusual intelli-
gence and q good speaker. When he
came to Paris to take his seat his blouse,
which he wore not only at the chamber
but at receptions and all other functions
which he attended, made him at once
famous.-Paris Letter.

DON'T BLAME THE WORLD.

Don't blame the world because the rnorns are
found among the roses;
The day that breaks in storm may be all sunshhG
when 1t closes.
We cannot hope to always meet with fortunes
fond caressing;
And that which seems most hard to bear may
bring with it a blessing.
The buried seed must rot in earth ere it produce
the flower,
And the weak plant to fructify must have both
sun and shower;
So man, to gain development, must struggle with
LIES crosses,
And view with calm philosophy his trials and his
losses.
A deadly, pois'nous weed may yield a salve of
surest healing,
The sweetest bloom may poisonous be although
its bane concealing.
Things are not always what they seem, but still
twas heaven designed them,
And we should class them all as good, and take
them as we find them.
Little we know Of this brief life, and nothing OF
its sequel;
Then let us take in humble trust all that may seem
unequal.
Gods ways are not our ways, and he should Ger.
tainly be trusted;
All that is wrong in his good time will surely be
adjusted.

IT is inevitable that the democratic
victory Of the 4th inst. should stimulate
conjecture as to who shall be the party's
nominee for the presidency in 1892.
Thus far the names most frequently
mentioned in the republican press
(Which, by the way, has monopoly OF
placing democratic candidates in the
field) are Ex-President Cleveland and
Governor Hill, OF New York. The de.
mocracy Is rich in presidential timber,
however, and it is just possible that
neither of the gentlemen named will ap-
pear before the nominating convention.
We'make no secret Of the fact that The
INDEPENDENTS choice for president is
that man whose public record gives the
best guaranty Of wise administration
OF the office, and who can poll the full
strength Of the democratic party, which
is equivalent to election.

A UnGloubted Oak,

The Butte Inter Mountain, which will
support Hon. Mr.. Bray for the next
United States senatorship, has this to say
of an alleged democratic canard designed
to impea,h his reputation for intelligence:
This community was stunned yesterday al
most into insensibility by a report to the
effect that Hon. Absalom F. Bray, M. p,
had been buncoed out Of several thousand
dollars in San Francisco. The Inter
Mountain was prompt to disavow any be-
lief in the story, particularly when
it ascertained that it originated
from democratic sources. But the
report was backed M by the
assurance that the adventure of Mr.. Bray
was fully set forth in a recent number Of
the San Francisco Examiner. which, if
true, must eliminate much of the haze of
uncertainty surrounding the circumstance.
Yet the Inter Mountain can not believe that
such keen-witted and experienced man az
Mr.. Bray should suffer himself TO run ne
against cold deck or gold brick In San
Francisco. Aman who once was q promising
candidate for the Liverpool oonsulshir
would certainly be too alert to be taken in
by couple Of San Francisco hoodlums OF
either sex. We therefore moline to the
belief that the whole story is q beastly 'oax
as Mr.. Bray would say, or else that the Ex-
aminer has lied or else that the Bray re.
ferred to is not the man who last winter
shed the rays Of his effuleent genius ani
craftsmanship upon the people OF the wes
side from his seat in the lower 'ouse a
elena. Perish the thought.

Tho Board Of Pardons to Consider the
Governors Action.
The board Of psrdons will meet on the
sixth Of next month to consider tho cases in
which Governor Toole has granted par
The papers in two cases are before the board
for consideration. In one the subject of
executive clemency is but 16 years old and
Of good family. He is Henry w. Straight.
Governor David B. Hill writes to the board
that he is we'll acquainted with the boys
mother. whose health has been much af-
fected by her sons present condition. He
was convicted in the district court of Silver
Bow of grand larceny and was sentenced in
May of last year to four years. confinement
in the penitentiary at Deer Lodge. The
property stolen was $1,000 in bills and
some personal property belonging to John
Stewart. The crime was committed in
April of the same year. From the papers
filed in the case it is made to appear that
older heads planned and led the boy into
the affair. Governor Beaver, Of Pennsyl-
vania, writes very strong letter urging q
pardon. He also dwells at some length
~. upon the bad effects likely to grow out Of
enoed in crime. The governor says that
Straight's friends in Pennsylvania are peo-
pie Of character and influence. Judge De
Wolfe and George w. Irwin II. also write
letters favorable to Straight.
The other case is that of Herbert A. Mel
len. The history of his case is told BY his
attorneys. TAYLOR b McCord, of Great Falls,
as follows: Mellen went to Great Falls
during the year 1887, and endeavored to &C.
cure employment, but being unsuccessful
started to walk to Fort Benton. When near
Box Elder. point on the road between
Great Falls and Fort Benton, he became ex-
hausted and was found lying in the snow in
dying condition by Under Sheriff Benja-
min Webster, who fortunately CHANGED to
90 along that road. Mr.. Webster took him
to the first house and with careful trent
ment Millen recovered, and as soon as he
was able to get out he went to work upon q
ranch. When his employer discharged him
it seems that Mellen could not get his
wages, SO he took boat belonging to his
late employer and started down the river.
He was arrested and indicted upon the
charge of grand larceny. Upon being taken
before Judge Mcconnell, he pleaded guilty.
The whole affair was explained to the judge
and it was thought Mellen would receive
but light sentence, inasmuch as the deed
was an act of folly rather than an inten-
tional commission of crime. The Judge
sentenced him to ten years in the peni-
| Tertiary.
