Chanel Services.

The choir singing was very pleasing Rev. ].
81. Albert conducted the service. HIS text was
because he is the Son Of man." which is taken
from the twentyseventh verse Of the fifth chapter
OF John -"And hath given him authority to exc
cute judgment also, because he is the Son of man..
The chaplain said, in brief, that calling Himself
1.-THE Son of man" seems to have been a favOrite
expression of Christ's in speaking of Himself.
1t is with only two or three exceptions that we find
the apostles calling Him the Son of man. Unjust
have had some special meaning to Christ. He had
the one thought in view and that was to impress
upon men that He was one with them. He did
not say am a son OF men. but am THE Son of
MAN. Christ was the perfect man. He embraced
within Himself the best that is in all men, thus
becoming the model man. Christ is the universal
man and embodies all that you and could hope to
be were we to live up to our highest being. We
find something in Jesus Christ that responds to
something in US. 1t matters not whether you be.
lieve in Him or not. get acquainted with Him. and
you love Him. Again. in Jesus Christ we see that
human nature and divine nature are ESSENTIALLY
the same. Human nature is in God, and divine
nature is in man. Through Him God reveals to
us what we may be. Christ identifies Himself
with us just as the mother does with her children.
No matter what may happen to us; no matter how
high we raise or how low we sink He is with US
just as the mother is with her child. Come what
will Christ is brother still. So. whatever are.
we should not think meanly Of ourselves. Christ
does not look at the outside of u.s. but like the Ital
ian artist of old, He sees the angel beneath the
rough exterior. Daniel Webster has said, if we
work in marble it will crumbe to dust. if in monu.
ments, time will level them to the earth. but if
on immortal souls. helping them to be true, to be
noble. to be divine, it will live and brighten
throughout eternity. How does Christ help US to
live good life? do not believe that He does it
by any patent method. He helps US by teaching US
the true way to live. By trying to follow His ex.
ample we become like Him. and the nearer we
come to Him the nearer are to full realiza-
ton of conceptions Of human perfection.
The nearer we come to His example the
better pleased are we with ourselves. When we
take Christ into our lives something is crowded
out that we glad to be rid of. Right here is
the test of Christ as perfect man. is He able
to force Himself into our lives3 He is; and we
are capable of becoming AXE Him. So. say, do
not think meanly of yourselves.

Mountainous Abroad.

ST.. PAUL, Nov. 1O.-The state of Mon.
tana was well represented at the Mer-
chants today. Among her representa-
tives were State Senator o. +. Goddard
of Billings; A. w. Lyman, editor of the
Helena Independent, and William Muth
of Helena, a delegate to the Montana
constitutional convention of 1889. Sen
ator Goddard figured prominently in the
last legislature, having been appointed,
with a brother senator, to settle the leg
~islative squabble over the election of
representatives in Silver Bow county,
both parties claiming to have carried the
election. The senator is a good re-
publican and is hopeful of
seeing Montana go republican
in 1892. He insists the recent i'm
migration has been all republican
while many democrats left the state. He
said: 1.-The great issue in the state next
year will be the location of a capital.
Bozeman and Deer Lodge are both try
ing to take it away from Helena but l do
not think that will have any effect on
the legislature. How is Montana for
Blaine: Well. / doubt whether the state
will send a Blaine delegation. Russell
Harrison was with us for some time and
the president has done considerable for
Montana. But if it came to a vote |
think the preference would be for
Blaine"

The elections knocked all the props
from under the third party movement.
1t appears to be an easy matter for a
few hundred men to get together, pass
high-sounding resolutions and pledge
themselves to work and to vote for the
principles which they hold so dear in
conventions. But it is a different thing
in the heat Of a political strife. They
forget all about their resolves and more
solemn pledges and when the roll is
called for men to take their places in the
voting lines they rush pell nell into the
party ranks from whence they came.
All Of which prove what the TRIBUNE
has maintained: There is no room for a
third party between the two great con-
tending political parties. 1t will be
ground to atoms before a campaign is
over.

strike and Boycott.

ST. LoUIs. Nov. 1O.-The difficulty be-
tween the Belt line and the brotherhoods
of locomotive engineers and firemen cul-
minated this morning in the declaration
of a strike and boycott which is likely to
be far reaching in its effects. The causes
leading to the action taken this morning
briefly are as follows: Some three weeks
ago the engineers and tiremen on the
Belt line became dissatisfied with the
scale of wages paid. Chief Arthur of the
brotherhood was sent for and adjustment
made on the basis of a uniform scale of
S3.25 per diem for engineers and S1.9O for
firemen for eleven hours work. 1t was
supposed fair sailing would be the order
for the winter, but last Sunday when
seventeen men were discharged for re-
fusing to work during their noon hour
without pay matters came to a crisis.
The discharge was summary and unex-
pected. Chiefs Arthur and Sargent of
the brotherhood of locomotive engineers
and the brotherhood of locomotive firemen
were telegraphed for. Arthur arrived in
the city Yesterday and at once met the
chief officials of the railroad company.
The interview terminated unsatisfactory
lily and the result is a strike and boycott.

time at the interior department in the
interest Of the register and receiver o.
the new land Office at Minot, N. Oak. II
appears neither Of these officials has re
ceived any salary since his appointmeu'
early last spring. This is owing to
clause in the law which prevents an
official from drawing his salary wher

DEMOCRATIC u
AS the late Jacob Sloat Fassett sal


As the late Jacob Sloat Fassett said,
This is a campaign of illumination
The result of next years contest will de-
pend upon an intelligent understanding
OF the tariff and silver questions. The
latter may be eliminated from rational
politics during the first session of this
congress, and it may not be. In either
event the tariff will remain a prominent
tissue. The democratic party has moth
ing to fear from a full. fair and search
ing discussion of it. 1t has everything
to overcome the latter is through read
ing, thinking and temperate discussions.
Even blind preiudices will yield to stub
born facts. One of the best means by
which these may be presented to the
masses is found in the organization of
democratic clubs. A large number is
already organized in the state and as
the evenings lengthen many more will
be formed.
These clubs composed. as they gener-
ally are, of young. active, earnest work
ing democrats a accomplish much
more by acting in unison than individual
members can. They can counsel, advise
and shape events bearing upon the sue
cess Of the party with a oneness of pur-
pose telling in its effects. AS organized
bodies they can collect political litera-
ture and place it where it will do the
most good. They can solidify the party
and ascertain it's strength at an hours
The power Of thoroughly organ
lied clubs is unlimited in a political
campaign. The time is ripe to organize
them. Montana's electoral vote may
elect the next president of the United
States. The democrats can carry it by
united. earnest work; they will lose it if
Indifference or lukewarmness prevail

The rumor that Mills will be elected
speaker Of the house of representatives
and that he will appoint a finance COM
mittee that will smother any and every
free coinage measure which may be pre-
sented to the house, in order to pave the
way for Cleveland's nomination to the
presidency is a republican canard of the
first water. Mr.. Cleveland may or may
not receive the nomination. but if he do
he must stand ~squarely upon the plat
form which the convention will formu-
late. That the platform will be for free
coinage goes without saying.

The reaction the republicans looked
for is not manifest in the recent elections.
The people have expressed their disap-
proval of the Mckinley tariff this year as
they did last. Massachusetts elects a
democratic governor by an increased ma
jority. Iowa did the same and New
York comes to the front with over 49,
600 democratic majority, while republic
can Ohio simply holds her own. These
facts are full Of significance. They indi-
cate a democratic victory next year With
Wisconsin, Iowa, Illinois and Indiana in
the democratic column.

THERE are about 800 carloads of fat
cattle yet to be shipped from northern
Montana, and will be shipped if the
weather permit. Cattlemen say a mis-
take was made by not shipping beeves
earlier. The market was better a month
or six weeks ago than it now is, and the
shrinkage was less than it was after
grass began drying up. Each year
brings its lessons to Montana stockmen
as well as to those in other beef-raising
sections.

the families Of workingmen. 1t is esti-
mated that the increase in prices since
the passage of the Mckinley measure
has cost the people of Massachusetts
alone the sum of S5,OO0,OOO, paid in the
shape of tariff taxes. Other states have
suffered in proportion. And the end is
not yet. AS the people become accus-
toned to paying increased prices for the
necessaries of life, a stiffening of prices
will begin all along the line and be kept
up until the maximum figures be reach
ed, or the patience of the people be ex-
hausted. The Mckinley bill was not en-
acted into law for the benefit of the
masses of the people. 1t is essentially a
monopolistic measure drafted in that
interest.

for Reed. Believing this the TRIBUNE
feels assured that the FIRST vote Mr..
Dixon casts will be in the direct line of
the interests of the west and particularly
those OF Montana. He will vote right
for speaker and will not dodge one on a
free coinage bill should one come before
the house. AS far as the speakership is

WASHINGTON, Nov. 1O.-The public
was taken into the confidence of the
democratic branch government this
afternoon in the continuation of the
hearing began yesterday before the
United States supreme court IN the case
Of the Canadian %sealer, w. p. Hayward,
seized for illegal sealing in Behring sea
and the first announcement made that a
prolonged diplomatic correspondence be-
tween Secretary Blaine and Lord Sails
bury had resulted in an agreement by
which with the consent of the senate the
long pending dispute over seal fisheries
in Behring sea will be definitely settled.
Solicitor General Taft who was address,
ing the court made the first
intimation that correspondence between
the two countries had reached a point of
agreement in arbitration. He stopped
at this point. When Justice Grain de-
sired some more explicit statement as to
whether the agreement upon arbitration
had been actually reached, the solicitor
general hesitated to reply and intimatad
that perhaps he had revealed more than
he mot being a cabinet officer and au-
thorized to speak only on legal q~uestions)
should have done. Thereupon Attorney
General Miller interposed. He not only
~substantiated all the solicitor general
had said, but went further and an
nounced that the government had eff
fected arrangements. This was really
the first announcement made of the
Behring sea negotiations since the last
correspondence was made public show
ing the difference of opinion between the
two governments on points of arbitration.
