The Montana MIDDLE.

The argument of the counsel for
the Republican Senatorial claimants
from Montana makes it certain that
the Senate will either investigate the
entire situation on the ground or re-
fer the contest back to tho people for
another election. The Republican
contestants do not ask to be admitted
on their certificates. They say that
as two sets of certificates have been
presented both are utilities, and that
the Senate will have to go into the
merits Of the case through secondary
proof. 1t is to be hoped that in doing
so the Senate will be able TO display
less craftsmanship than has been shown
in the House. A really honest and
dispassionate investigation of the
Montana middle would be very
welcome thing to the Countrywide
aminor.

An Unpopular Candidate.


A dispatch dated Americus, Ga,
Feb. 15, says:
There is much resentment here over
the nomination by President Harrison
OF David Dudley, negro blacksmith,
as Postmaster. 1t was unexpected
both by the whites and Dudley, as
the present incumbent's term does not
expire before May This is thought
to be slap at Crisp for his work in
Congress, this being his home. Dud-
Icy has been frequently seen on the
streets under the influence of drink,
and has local reputation as a bar
room debater. A short time ago he
was arraigned before the Mayor for
drunkenness and assault and battery
and fined $50.
