have been received and accepted and
construed in the spirit in which it
was intended, if the warming had
been intimated to any other than a
constituencies party whose whole
record reeks with rotten corruption
and which is entirely destitute of
moral perception or sensibihty. But
on the republican partisans in the
senate IL had no effect That they
had already formed a deep-laid con-
spiracy to seat the republican claim
ants at any cost without any refer
ence to the facts in the case and re.
gardless of the enormity of the
fraud and the rank injustice Of it,
was shown by the conduct Of the re-
publican members Of the senate in
deserving the chamber in body
when Senator Gray, Of Delaware,
arose to present the democratic side
of the argument. The outrage was
consumated. The deed was done
and the fraudulent pair from the
Mountain state have been invited to
take their seats. Following the
warning note from Helena to the
United States senate and on, the
heel of the decision of the partisan
majority there comes another echo
which forms the basis both of a pre-
dlction and threat. The echo comes
from Butte City, composing the now
famous precinct 81" of Silver Bow
county, on which the whole question
as to who were entitled to seats in
the United States senate depended.
With the vote of precinct "a" Sill
yer Bow county was democratic and
its representatives to the legislature
gave the democrats the majority
The fraudulent republican returning
board, however, without any cause
threw out the returns OF precinct 81
in which Butte City is situated, and
this gave the republicans majority
in the Legislature. At the city cleo
ton just held the other day demo
GRAFT and republican managers both
appealed to the voters on the sena-
torship question. The republicans
appealed to the voters to elect the
republican ticket and endorse the
action of the United States senate,
while the democrats appealed to the
suffragians to rebuke the theft and
deep-dyed vlllainy of the republi-
cans. The answer to the conflicting
appeals made by both parties was a
democratic majority of four hun
dred. The conclusion to be arrived
at is that all's well that ends well.
The scoundrelism of the g. o. p. has
made Montana solidlY democratic.

being circulated by other papers.
The story is to the effect that the
late Congressman Randall confessed
before his death that he ''knifed'
Grover Cleveland in his second con-
test for the presidency, and organ
lied the fight which defeated him.
Unfortunately Samuel J. Randall
cannot be present III the flesh to re
pei the foul calumry attempted to
be cast upon his memory, but fortu-
nately he left such name behind
him that it will require the most ex-
acting, definite and explicit proofs
to make his bitterest foe believe the
report. Nobody who ever knew OF
heard Of Samuel J. Randall Will
doubt his loyalty to his party. That
he refused to 60 with the majority
of his party on the question of the
tariff, while unfortunate, was no evil
dence of disloyalty, His unyielding
opposition on this issue was due to
his early associations, his education
and to what he regarded as the
vested rights and property interests
of his own constituents. His course
on this as on all other issues was
honest and above-board, open to the
closest scrutiny and criticism. Had
he by SO much as fingers weight
knowingly and Intentionally have
given aid and comfort to his politi-
cal enemy with the view of defeat
ing the democratic candidate for
president, the democracy wouldn't
have had to wait until he was in his
grave to have learned of it from the
lips of some cowardly, obscure and
irresponsible slanderer.

RANK PARTIsANsHIP.

From its first conception up to its
birth and during its childhood and
through all subsequent years down
to its present stage of imbecility,
rank rottenness and corruption gone
to seed, the republican party has
been noted for its assinine stubborn
ness, its mad fanaticism, its extreme
sectionalism, its selfshness, bigotrY,
narrow-minded conceit and intoler-
ance of those holding views contrary
to 1t. Believing through narrow
minded bigotry or ignorant conceit
that it is Gods elect, chosen to
carry out the will and the purpose
OF the Almighty, the republican par
ty in its Own view stands justified
for all the acts of consummate vii
lainy and rascality of which it has
been notably guilty, believing that the
end justified the means. But while
it already stands guilty of having
committed repeatedly all of the
crimes in the political decalogue,
the republican party has fairly out
heroded Herod in the matter of It's
lawless, high-handed methods, rank
injustice and inconsistent course on
the question of admitting the terri.
tories into the union. Bills are
railroaded through the house for the
admission of two territories, while
two other territories are LEFT out.
They are admitted without a quorum
of the members being present and
voting. One of the territories adj
mitted DISTINGUISHES lIormoas and
confers the right OF female suffrage,
while the other territory allows
Mormons to vote and denies the
right of female suffrage Idaho and
Wyoming with population both
put together of less than New
Mexico are admitted and the latter
is refused admission, simply because
the two former are republican and
New Mexico is democratic. The
base, partisan advantage to be
gained from the admission of these
territories is urquestioned, but the
infamy of the act of partisan dis
elimination does not stop at con-
ferring statehood upon two rotten
burroughs, but also consists in the
unjust and inconsistent features of
the state constitutions which are di-
rectly opposed to each other and
yet both are admitted as they are.
The admission of these territories is
in furtherance of matured conspi-
racy to thwart the will of the Amer
lean people. Recognizing the fact
that it was by an accident, which is
not likely to happen again soon,
that they cane into control of the
house, the republicans are making a
desperate effort to arrange so as to
perpetuate minority rule in this
country after the majority in the
house shall be on the demoara &c
side. The country was warHsa of
the intentions OF the republicans to
admit the territories into statehood
several months before the question
came up; but as the minority is left
powerless by Autocrat Reeds rul-
ing, the American people will simply
have to wait and rebuke the parti-
san outrage at the polls. A day of
will certainly come and
retributive justice is sure to be
meted out to the @. O. D.

ECHOES FROM MONTANA.

After the partisan majority on the
committee of elections in the United
States senate had reported in favor
of seating the fraudulent republican
senators from Montana, and while
both the majority and minority re-
ports were being discussed on the
floor of the senate chamber. tele-
gram was received from Helena, the
state capital of Montana, announcing
that the city, which had always
hitherto been considered reliably re-
publican, had gone democratic in a
municipal election just held by ma
jority of several hundred votes.
This emphatic protest against the
political outrage that was about to
be perpetrated against the free suf-
frage of American citizens would

DE MoRru1s NIL N1s1 BoNUM

There is an old Latin maxim
handed down from the classic ages
to the effect that nothing should be
said concerning the dead but good,
the observance of which has been
time-honored. If we We're looking
for reasons why the observance of
the rule should have passed into a
maxim and why it should have ever
been enjoined, many might be given.
In the first place, the grave closes
up the last chapter of a mans exis-
tence, and as he is henceforth pow
erless to do evil or to excite the
jealousy of envious tongues, well
may the mantle of charity be spread
over his past life and his past acts.
And in the second place, the maxim
is to he observed because it is mean
and cowardly to traduce the memory
of a dead man, even though he is
past feeling and of being harmed.
His memory is worth something to
his family and to his friends and
neighbors, and his character ought
not to be assailed unless he could be
present in the flesh to defend him
self against the accusations. On
the other hand it is not necessary
that we should belle facts in the OBJ
seryance of the maxim and go to the
opposite extreme by indulging in
fulsome tiattery and extravagant
laudation of the dead. It simply
suf1ices to say nothing at all con
corning the dead if we cannot speak
in entire appreciation of them.
These reflections are called forth by
a miserable, sneaking and SANDER
GUS story which has crept into print
since the death of Hon. Samuel J.
Randall, which had its origin in an
obscure, irresponsible sheet and is

PROPERTY ASSESSMENTS.

One of the points sought to be
made against Attorney-General
Hogg in order to cripple him in his
race for the governorship is based
on his letter of instruction issued
some time ago to county and district
attorneys throughout the state, di.
recting them to institute proceed
ings against such property-owners
and Taxpayers as are VIGOROUSLY
dishonest in returning an incomplete
list Of their property or who grossly
undervalue and underestimate their
belongings in order to dodge the
payment of taxes. It was loudly as
serted at the time and is being re-
peated anew in chorus by the anti
Hogg organs that if his instructions
to the district and county attorneys
were carried out it would make
criminals and perjurers of at least
half of the tax-paying citizens of the
state and instantly fill the penitenti-
aries. 1t must be admitted that Mr..
Hogg's instructions were very
sweeping and the undertaking her
culean, not to say entirely visionary
and impossible of accomplishment.
But, nevertheless, the objection
brought against it and the capital
sought to be made against him on
the ground of its utter absurdity
and preposterousness, contains a
strong admission of the great neces-
sity of some kind of reform measure
to correct the present inequalities
and injustice and to secure equal
taxation. The way that the tax laws
have been enforced in the past and
are being enforced, the wealthy
property owner manages without
any difficulty to conceal and smother
up the great bulk of his property
and avoids the payment of taxes on
it, while the little that the poor man
has is taxed to the last penny The
tax-dodging abuse is not confined to
Iexas or any county III Texas, nor
to any state in the union. 1t is an
abuse and great evil that exists
throughout the country, and those
who do not admire MIR. Hogg's plan
of prosecuting people who wilfully
and fraudulently make oath with in
tent to deceive as to the amount of
property which they own subject to
taxation and of the fraudulent
rendition of property, the st. Louis
Post Dispatch cites Chicago and
its city for an exa mple.
Outside of Chicago there
are no cities in Illinois as
wealthy and populous as Kansas
City and st. Joseph in Missouri.
Yet Chicago and Cooke county, in
Illinois, claiming a population of
100000, are assessed at only $211-
100000, or less than one-ffth of Ill
inois state assessment, while st.
Louis city and county are assessed
at S275,440,7O0, or considerably
more than one third of the entire
Missouri assessment.

The mostimpudent scheme of per
sonal meanness and greed ever in
troduced in congress is the attempt
to tax cotton seed oil for the benefit
of the Chicago combination of manu-
facturers of hogs lard. Everybody
knows that cotton seed oil is a pure
and wholesome vegetable product.
The invention of the method of con-
verting the refuse seed of cotton in
to a cheap and healthful article of
food is one of the most valuable
achievements of the age. But only
the Lord and the Chicago fat-render-
ers know what base and unwhole.

facture Of the article of commerce
which goes by the euphemistic de-
signation of pure leaf lard Phil
