THE ELECTION OF SENATORS.

The popular campign made by General
Palmer in Illinois for a seat in the United
States senate seems likely to bring about
at least a partial change in the mode of
choosing persons to ill that office. The
law provides for the election of senators
by state legislatures, but under the caucus
system of selecting candidates the cleo
ton by the joint session of the legislature
has become simply a formal proceeding
to comply with the terms of the law, the
real work being done by the party
caucus. The Palmer plan is to have the
people instruct the members of the legis-
lature at the election, thus superSeding
the work of the caucus. The latest
move in this connection is reported from
Arkansas. w. NJ. Fishback of Fort
Smith, who wants to be United Stakes
senator from that state, has made a
proposition to Senator Jones, whom he
desires to succeed, that a popular cleo
ton be held prior to the meeting of the
legislature, to allow the people to indi-
cate, by their votes, their choice between
the two competitors. 1t is not believed
that Senator Jones will agree to that
plan. The fact that Fishback wants to
leave it TO the voters is presumptive evil
dence that Jones has ''pull' on the leg
islature.

1T is eminently proper that WILDER F.
Sanders should reap the substantial fruits
of fraud. He is the thief of the tunnel
precinct, he is the man who procured ly-
ing afidavits through the agency of a
condemned murderer. 1t was in his i'm
terest that the franchise was despoiled, it
was to advance his political fortunes that
the people of Montana were robbed of
their political rights. In the gradual un-
folding Of a conspiracy there has been no
detail so mean, no purpose so dishonest,
no intrigue SO contemplate that it did
not thrive under his skilled manipula-
ton. Let him rank as senator-he will
never be senator by the sovereign will of
the people of Montana. He is the doomed
victim of an accursed political ambition
that will burden his declining years with
its load of infamy. He will take his right
full rank as the Sheriff Plummer In the
political annals of Montana. As long as
living men have memories they will re-
cite the story of his mad assault on popu-
lar rights in Montana; here, in the hour
of his apparent triumph, this newspaper
predicts that WILDER F. Sanders will live
to curse the day that saw him seated by
conscious fraud in the senate of the
United States!-Anaconda Standard.

TREE CULNRE.

Governor Toole gives ample notice to
all who would observe Arbor day. He
appeals to the sense of beauty as we'll as to
the hope of gain i'll histimely proclamation
which says:
Pursuant to law and the best interests
of the state, |, Joseph X. Toole, governor
OF the state OF Montana, do hereby set
apart the thiIdTuesday of April(being the
10Th day of April, 1890, as a day for the
planting of trees, identifying homes, Gem
%eteries, highways, public grounds and
landscapes.
The observance of this day aside from
becoming Il custom, beautiful in itself, will
rapidly and materially enhance the value
of all property SO improved.
therefore earnestly request that all
the people of Montana observe this day
in the manner indicated above, and l es-
pecial.y recommend that the attention of
pupils in all our schools be directed to
the importance of the cultivation and
preservation of trees, and that wherever
practicable they participate iu planting
trees, shrubs and vines in the school
house grounds.
To those who desire to avil themselves
of the more substantial rewards of exemp-
ton from taxation attention is called to
the following sections OF an act approved
September IS, 1887:
Governor Toole then quotes the law,
which allows for eight years an exemp-
ton of 800 for each acre to any person
who cultivates for two years one or more
acres of fruit trees. He also quotes the
section which allows for five years an ex-
emption from taxation of 81 annually for
each tree in n line of forest or fruit trees,
planted at least Is feet apart and not
more than eight feet from a water ditch.
This proclamation should receive a
hearty response throughout Cascade coun-
ty, which needs only trees to impart I'M
rivalled beauty to the landscape.

to the ranchmen: procure the best seed
and pillow your ground at the first oppor-
tunity. Then seed 1t quickly. Don't
lose time guessing whether this will be a
wet or dry year. The heavy snowfall
gives in itself promise that the soil will
be damp enough to start the seed. The
