Finally there is Richards, who occupies
a negative position in Silver Bow as we'll as
Montana politics. He is a political corpse
in every sense of the word. though he occu-
pies astate office. He is despised by both
factions, though the Couch men affiliate
with him, presumably to hold his 'influ-
ence" with the highly respectable element
of Butte society. But here he has lost his
grip by his recent cowardly attacks on a
minister of his own church. Richards is
entirely responsible for his political deg
radiation. His rulings in the senate last
winter. while endorsed for the time being
by the republicans as . matter of policy
brought more odium ON his head than he
imagined. One of tho best known Butte
republicans sized up Richards position
very we'll when he said to me: THAT man
made his mistake by endeavoring TO place
his rulings on divine authority. He wal
entirely willing to make the rulings wher
asked to do it. He knew they were wrong
though he said to the senate that he be-
lieved he was acting with conscientious in
telligence in the matter. This is the slut
that . genuine Noutanian despisss. Tn

POPULAR expectation is being disappoint-
ed at the revelations of the census simply
because it has been unreasonably high. The
growth of the nation in the past ten years
has not only been as great as could be
looked for by rational persons, but has been
greater absolutely as we'll as proportionate-
" than that of any other large county,
st. Louis Globe-Democrat.
The plain truth is that the census Of
1880 is a failure--the inevitable result Of
running the bureau as political ma
chine. There is every reason to believe
that fifteen to twenty per cent Of the
population of several states was not
enumerated. Such was the case in
Montana and Oregon and doubtless in
other states as we'll. It is now estimated
that the census returns will not givt
the United States population OF Owe
63, ,OO0-probably 10000 less than
correct enumeration would show.

SWEARING As A DISEASE.

A writer in the London Telegraph, in
discussing the swearing habit and the
best means Of breaking it, takes the
view that the profane swearer should be
treated with the skill and intelligence
that are brought to bear to turn the
drunkard from his evil ways. The med
ical antagonist Of inebriety begins by re-
ducing tn daily quantity of alcoholic
liquor, at the same time substituting for
it strong nourishment in the shape OF
soups and other heterogeneous prepare
tons. In precisely the same way, il
thinks, the vice Of swearing can be sue
cessfully treated. The patient is moi
merely told that he must desist from
saying certain words; but he is giver

leas objectionable, which BE- i permitted

A NEW DANGER.

It has been long looked for and it has
come at last. The expected has hap
pened. We mean the new disease
telephone insanity. The London Tele-
graph gives this too brief account of the
first well-defined case: A lady about 26
years of age, employed in the chorus of
one Of the theatres, suddenly stopped in
the middle of the Rue DIES Petits. Car
reaux and shouted at the top of her
voice, ".hallo! hallov' the preliminary
words used here when person wishes
to converse with another through the
telephone. A crowd at once gathered
around the young lady, who put her
hands to her mouth and ears in telphon.

continued she, as if speaking into

You cannot be bothered! Then send

She repeated this several times, and at
last the spectators came to the conclu-
sion that she was wrong in her mind. A
constable took her to the police sta
ton, where she went on in the same
way, declaring that she heard distinctly
through the telephone the celestial
music OF Paradise; that she could hear
Saint Cecilia playing the piano, and
that the chorus was composed Of cheru-
bin. NJ. Cochefort, the superintendent
of police, seeing the state of the young
lady, sent her to the central station,
where she was at once placed in the hos
pital and attended by the doctors. The
medical men made careful study of the
symptoms and united in pronouncine
the malady telephone madness. Here
the report ends. A full pathological
history of the case would have beer

The spectacle Of the Indianapolis
Journal, the home organ OF Harrison

Farmers Alliance to be on its guard
against the wicked democrats, is one of
the funniest things in the discussion of
current politics except the Butte Inter

Captain Couch has heretofore been re-
garded tyro in politics. His rapid rise in
fortune and influence have given him q
place smong party leaders because he can
control votes. Il is not necessary to say
that this is an important requisite in Silver
Bow politics. Couch and Mantle were onoe
very good friends until they separated over
business proposition. Since then they
have been opposing each other with all the
resources at their command. Couch hat
some very good ieutenants. There is Bray
who like Crouch, has big pull on the Cor
nish vote. Then there is Dolman, who cut
something of a figure in secret societies
and among voters who have no very Rrea
interest in politics. George Haldorn, tn
well-known criminal lawyer, is anothe

renublicans in Silver Bow fear Dixon's can
d dacv more than that of any west side
man. One of them told me that the judge
could easily beat any republican with the
nossible exception of Carter. He thought
the chances were in Dixon's favor if Carter
opposed him. ..
The only reasons why Judge Dixon might
decline are of a business nature. His poor
health might influence his decision but
strong pressure will be brought for the use
of his name in the convention. A democrat
told me he was authorized to say that Jonn
II. Toole would not accept the nomination.
Mr.. Toole's friends in Silver Bow county
are sure that he can land winner II noml-
mated because he can command many
doubtful votes. He is desirable man tor

Montana in many ways. Hon. II. L. Frank

who, it is understood, would accept the
nomination if rendered. His candidacy
would be above criticism and he would
beyond doubt be elected. The democrats
of Silver Bow county say there will be no
possible friction in the convention and that
harmony will prevail during the entire
campaign.

In marked contrast with the republicans
the Silver Bow democrats are united, har-
monious and enthusiastic. They are full of
fight and will make straight out-and-out
fight against the common enemy. They
have begun organizing and have formed a
rafting democratic club in Butte. Unless
something unforeseen OCCURS they will come
to the front in a solid phalanx on election
day and they have good reason for believ-
ing they will carry the county by major
ity of 500 to 1000. They are ANXIOUS
to make precinct 81 the issue
and they expect to win many
voters on that ground alone. 1 had brief
chat with w. A. Clark, and found him
earnest and enthusiastic FOR the success of
the ticket. He says that Silver Bow county
will surely so democratic, and that the
democratic congressman will be elected, no
matter who the opposing candidate may be.
I am informed that Marcus DAILY will use
all his efforts for the success of the ticket.
With two such war horses in the field in
Silver Bow it is difficult to see how the
county can be carried by the republicans.
Dan Hennessey will run again for the
senate, and will be elected. If fractional
fights among the republicans did not exist
he would carry the county by majority OF
from GOO up, and as it is he will swell the
majority close to 1000 if the present indica
tions are carried out. The republicans art
all at sea for candidate. Either Couct
or Mantle man would be cut to pieces b,
men of his own party, and a candidate no
identified with either of these factions hal
not yet been suggested. IF asked to run NJ
Butte republican would care to enter tn.
race against man 80 worthy and popula
as Hennessey.
There is a good deal Of gossip in Butt
over the probable democratic candidate TO
congress. OF course. it is understood tina
he will be west side man but there seem
to be no definite idea who he will be. How
ever. it is not at all difficult to determin
the choice of the Silver Bow democracy
To a man they want w. w. Dixon to lea
the hosts to battle. The only question
seems to be, will Judge Dixon take tn
nomination? 1t is safe to say that no Cit
zen OF Butte commands, in larger measure
the respect and popularity of his fellow
citizens. He has been the recognized hea
of the Silver Bow bar for years and hs
always been q democratic leader OF CON
manding ability. Al the same time he "a
been involved IN no faotioRal Aghts. ID
