In his veto of the Saxton ballot reform
bill Governor Hill has run afoul of the
Democratic press in many parts outside of
his own State. Here is the Philadelphia
Record declaring, with want of respect
for the acumen and legal capacity of the
mind of the Governor of the Empire State
that is astounding probably to Mr. Hill,
that his objections to the bill on constitu-
tional grounds are hair-splitting and
wholly unsatisfactory, and it adds that
Governor Hill has stupidity butted his
head against a stone wall Really it begins
to look as if something after the order Of
Republican independence and disposition
to be originalin thinking has been breathed
in by the Democratic press. With the Chi
cago Herald telling the Wisconsin Demo-
crats that they are asses and disloyal to the
American principle, and the Philadelphia
Record comparing the prospective Demo-
cratic nominee for the Presidency in 92
10 stupid old ram, it begins to look as if
the Democratic press has issued declara-
tion of independence.

THE OAKLAND CRAZE.

The misguided people who follow the
lead of the sensational preacher, Mrs.
Woodworth, and are fleeing from Oakland
to the mountains and the foothills, are to
be more pitied than blamed. That they
are sincere in their belief that Mrs. Wood
worth is prophet of God, and has been
vouchsafed glimpse into the near future,
there can be no doubt. Like thousands of
other infatuated beings led away by reli-
glous frenzy, they are but repeating history
In their delusion. The annals of the
world are full of such movements. The
Millerites have set dozen dates within
the last fifty years for the destruction of
the earth and the sounding of the trump
of Judgment; they have many time had
their ascension robes ready and donned
but the globe still swings in its orbit,
and no sign has been given that the con-
tinuity of natural law is to be broken.
The conception that these Oakland people
have of God is one far below the level of
pure religion. 1t conceives the Creator to
be a being visiting upon the children of
men vengeances and wrath by special dis
pensation, and furnishing here and there a
few with swift anger, while permitting
more sinful creatures to escape. Why
Oakland and San Francisco have been
selected for destruction in the coming
week, Mrs. Woodworth does not explain.
That these cities are more wicked than
Others is not claimed, or that they are
i more deserving of the awful visitation said
to impend is not charged. We are simply
told that God the Almighty, the Supreme
and and All-Wise Ruler of the Universe,
has given to this woman foreknowledge of
an approaching wave that will whelm
certain cities Of the Bay and send half
million of people to common grave
There is given to the believers in this
prophecy no proof, save that of the maun-
derings of parcel of people who claim to
have seen, in trance state, mimic repre-
sentation of the cataclysm that is prophe-
sled by Mrs. Woodwork. There seems to
have been no suggestion to the simple peo-
pie led away by the false prophet, that
frenzied imaginations, weak intellects and
religious insanity or cunning deceit may
have had great deal to do with the
frances and hysterical conditions of these
"seers." Mrs. Woodworth is leading her
flock to the mountains, and in the course
of a few weeks they will come struggling
back, not cured of their folly, but prepared
to anchor to the next crazy or designing
enthusias. who appears and deals in wild
prophecy and moves upon the superstitious
sensibilities of the weak-minded

cent traveller, one of the precepts en-
forced upon the youths by the older
men is this: "You no like girl first. If
you do, girl laugh at you and call you a
woman" which, being interpreted,
means of course that young man
should not propose marriage to a girl,
but should wait for her to express a
preference for him. In this land of per-

A Lads Carelessness Likely to Result
Fatally to Him.
Fritz Kranich, the 12-year-old son of
VIM. Kranich, proprietor of the grove bear
ing his name, met with most unfortunate
accident at the round house of the Steam
Motor company about Z O'Clock yesterday
morning. He was around the round house
while the engineer was at breakfast and the
latter, who is a careful and experienced
man, was not aware of the boys presence.
He boarded his motor and started to leave
the round house when the boy jumped upon
the rear side step for ride, but the passage
way between the motor and door is only
about six inches wide, and it was there
young Krapich was caught and almost
damned to death. His cries attracted the
engineer, who quickly ran to the now
PROSTATE form of the boy
who was i'll great agony. DR.. Rawson was
soon summoned and the boy taken to his
home near by. Investigation showed that
the fifth, sixth. seventh, eighth and ninth
ribs were broken, that he was bleeding in
ternally and his lungs we're filling with
blood. He received every attention yester-
day and late in the evening was resting
easy, but still bleeding internally, and DR..
Kawson entertains but slight hope of his
recovery.

A FEW THINGS TO REMEMBER.

That the counsel for Lloyd, the re-
publican candidate for sheriff of Silver
Bow county, by agreement with the
other side, did not raise the question Of
fraud at precinct "a in the trial in the
district court, but made their case on
the alleged informality in the naturali-
cation of voters at that precinct
That the supreme court decision in
favor of Lloyd was based on other
grounds than those raised on the trial
in the court below.
That had the decision Of the supreme
court of Montana been confined to the
points submitted by counsel in the lower
court the case would have been appeal
able to the supreme court Of the United
States.
That the decision rs based on the ques-
ton of fraud, which was not raised on
the trial in the district court, barred
Sheriff Sullivan from any appeal.
That the supreme court decision de-
MES new trial Of the case in the dis
trct court, although that decision is
based on alleged facts that were never
tried in the district court.
That although the supreme court
finds that the mathematical precision of
the voting at the precinct in question
was suspicious, it does not find anything
suspicious in the alleged attempt of
Thomas G. Power to corrupt one Of the
judges at said precinct after the cleo
ton.
That while the court finds matter of
interest to quote from the speech of the
Hon. George Gray, of Delaware, in the
United States Senate, it fails to quote
any interesting passages from the speech
of the Hon. David Turpie in the same
body.
And that it does not quote line from
the decision of that eminent jurist,
Hiram Knowles, who declared that
county canvassirg boards had no power
to 60 behind the returns.

MANY MEMS MAIIADIES.

They Will be Discussed at Ming's Sunday
Night.
DR.. j. @. Harrison, who is to lecture to
men only at Ming's on Sunday evening,
has devoted his time, .since attaining his
majority, to the study of his own sex and
its ills. In 1881 he sailed from San Fran
cisco for New Zealand, Australia and other
colonies where he spent two years. He Wis
tied Africa, Ireland, England and Scotland,
lecturinR wherever the English language is
spoken or understood, and everywhere at
tracing large audiences of men. For the
past two years he has been identified with
the leading hospitals of Austria, France
and England, in further prosecution of
his life work. He illustrates his lectures
by means of dissolving views projected up
on q large canvass by powerful stereopti-
con. The New York Times says: "Dr.
Harrison's lecture was thoughtful, schol-
arly effort, and was enlivened by bright
bits of humor'"

admits that it is absolutely necessary
for employers in their own interest to
combine" and points to the result Of
such action already existing in Great
Britain. Such agencies, Mr.. Mann be-
lieves, are likely to promote the conces-
sion of reasonable demands He even
goes farther, and anticipates a time
when we shall see national combinations
Of capitalists and workmen fighting each
other in manner We have as yet had
NO experience of. For the working man
he has no fear even then, if he will only
take time by the forelock and strengthen
his own ranks for the coming struggle.
"In any case it will be far better for a
representative committee of organized
workers in given industry to meet a
similar committee of organized employ
ers, and to face each other, remembering
that each side has great resources
wherewith to inhict terrible punish
ment, than to rely on the guerilla war
fare to which recourse must be had in
the absence of standing armies.' Such
colossal opposition on both sides would,
he believes, enforce spirit of modera-
ton, and matters in dispute would be
willingly referred to the decision of an
arbitrator mutually agreed upon. Or
ganize! organize! is Mr.. Mann's advice
to both sides on the labor question. In
tho efficacy of the interference Of any
supreme legislative body between en-
ployer and employed in regard to any
such matters as the eight-hour question
the writer has little faith. Local ques-
tions must be settled by local authori-
ties; only from this point of view he
thinks economical questions are politi-
cal-their solution must be preceded by
a large decentralization OF power.

ADJUSTMENTS,
Nat COodwin's Fine Performance as Silas
X. WOlcott In a Gold Nine

Nat Goodwin's Fine Performance as Silas
X. Wolcott in a Gold Mine.
There are sufficient reasons for prophesy-
ing Nat Goodwin's supremacy as coined.
ian if the performance last evening is to be
taken as correct portrayal of his art. II
was in all respects the most impressive
acting seen in Helena this season, with the
possible exception of Mr.. Russell in "A
Poor Relation" 1t is gratifying to know
that it was witnessed by large audience
that was enthusiastically appreciative.
Every change and move was watched with
an interest not often seen among theatre
goers. "A Gold Nine offers unusual
opportunities for the actors art. 1t is a
fairly probable story constructed with
proper reference to the sympathies of an
audience. Silas X. Wolcott.s an open.
hearted, whole-souled American. finds tina,
his generous impulses empty his purse, bu,
the charitable act is rewarded bp wOman's
love. The thread of the play is followed in
bright dialogue and impressive situations
OF course the interest of the evening
centered i'll Mr.. Goodwin's character OF
Wolcott. 1t was pictured in an artistic
and sympathetic way. With hardly trace
of effort he carried the audience from
laughter to pathos. and vet this was done
so naturally that it was difficult to realizs
that MIR. Goodwin was playing part. The
effect OF his acting is feeling that he is
one of US. and i'll his drawing the audience
to him shows power of which jefferson of
all present comedians is supposed to possess
alone. At times there was tlippant touch
as a reminder Of his success in another line
of comedy.
The other players acted admirably. Mr..
Browne was especially clever in the story
of his troubles and Mr.. Arthur was an ideal
young Irish gentleman. Mr.. Wilson's voice
lacked sufficient dexibility even for his
supposed sterness. Mrs. Rush furnished I
eoo'i part OF the comedy in pleasing man
her, while Miss Goes acting WAS noticeable
for well guarded and even display al
emotion. Miss Maehl WAS fairly god. 4
Gold Mime will be played tais evening and

Three Shots at Her Lover.

A Dusky Maiden From Leadville Fires
Three Shots at Her Lover.
Between the hours of and 5 O'Clock yes
terday morning Bessie johnson, a colored
cyprian, in jealous rage, attempted to kill
recreant lover, also colored, named
Thomas Robinson. "Black Bess," as the
woman is known, recently arrived from
Leadville, and discovered that johnson was
lavishing his affections on some other wo-
man, and at the time mentioned yesterday
reproached him for his conduct, and added
emphasis to her remarks by firing three
pistol shots at Johnson. one of which took
effect in the arm above the elbow and,
passing downward, came out at the wrist
A crowd of people rushed to the scene of
the shooting, which was in a
room over the Foy sisters saloon on Bridge
street. Robinson was taken care of by a
physician and the woman placed in Jail.
She did not seem much concerned over the
probable result of her action, and said
Robinson was too mean to 9, and she said
she had figured in shooting scrape in
Leadville not long ago.

HE EXPLAINS.

Botkin, the Kansas orator who made
holy show Of himself at Paris. Texas, on
decoration day, May 20, has been writ
ing letters, we see, to the Kansas papers
Since returning home explaining his OUT
landish conduct and utterly defenceless
language on that occasion. His expla-
nations will not count for much even in
Kansas, except with the bigoted rebel
haters like himself, who are by no means
in q majority there, although quite
numerous.
1t is the fate of Kansas to have
become the asylum of more cranks
and freaks of the Botkin- Kelly
species than any other state
in the Union. They are there by the
score, and whenever one of them goes
out of the state as Kelly went to Fort
Smith and Botk1n to Paris, he usually
displays considerable dexterity in making
a picturesque ass of himself, and in d is
grazing his state. AS natural result,
the Kansas crank is becoming notorious
throughout the country, and before long,
unless he can be suppressed. win become
proverb.
1t is particularly unfortunate for the
state, ana the masses of her people who
are in every way most estimable folks,
that she has to endure the odium earned
for her by such fellows as Botkin and
Kelly, but there is no present help
for it. The people are themselves Q
trife to blame for much of it. SIcklers
for moral advancement, and growth,
they have patroulzed every ism snd pat
mountebank, and have thus sown the
seed for harvest OF humiliation not un-
mixed with disgrace. The ''frivolous
and desultory sentimentalism sneered
at by ingalls,, and the "tea custard and
syllabub philosophx" of the capons and
epicenes of society, against whom
he leveled the shafts OF
ridienle, have bred q horde of
moral monstrosities whose ridiculou
pranks and fre-eating propensities max
them the laughing stocks of the nation
and the humiliation of their own state.
Elsewhere, Botkin would doubtless be
reasonable creature, tolerant and char
liable, but living in Kansas atmos-
phere tainted with the moral efiuvIa
engendered by John Brownism and SINH
lar abortions, his receptive nature could
not escape the contagion, and so be fell
into the grand army Of frsaks.

THE BILL WORTHLESS.

Most thinking people we believe felt
that the bill introduced in congress some
time ago providing for system Of gov
eminent warehouses for farm products,
was not the sort of remedy called for by
the hard conditions affecting the farmer.
seeing that the plan was novel and
very peculiar one, and the precise terms
and provisions of it was not known to the
people. Senator John G. Carlisle has
written letter on the bill to an Alabama
gentleman, in which he throws abundant
light on the measure, and shows that
it Is the heigth of folly, and ut
terly worthless as an efficient remedy.
He shows that it is undemocratlc, be-
cause it would be an application to the
agricultural interests of the principles OF
class legislation which they have hitherto
denounced as unjust and oppressive,
when employed in behalf Of others. In
the next place it would benefit some, and
those needing it the least, to the injury
VI tuC mduJ WIN COulu uOb pEouL ny IL
Counties only that sell annually half
million dollars worth of farm products
are entitled by the bill to have ware
houses. This leaves the poorer counties,
which are in the majority, out in the
cold. Again warehouse certificates for
so per cent. of the value of the pro-
duce deposited, would like pawn
brokers' tickets become a merohantable
commodity, because in very many cases
the farmers would be unable to redeem
them, and pay the charges of storage,
insurance, etc., incurred. Generally
speaking, the farmer who, instead Of
housing his products at home, is SO hard
up that he must cart them miles away to
the government warehouse, where he
gets so per cent. of their value in money,
will hardly be able to redeem them when
the allotted time is up. In other re-
spects the bill is shown to be vicious and
utterly worthless as remedy for the
farmers Ills. The true and only rem
edy, says the senator, is to reverse the
policy that bred the evils, and let the
natural order take its course. In other
words reform the tariff.
