NOTES AND COMMENTS.

What has become generally known
as the Miner law of Michigan has been
passed upon ny the supreme court of
the United Sites and decided to be
uncona titutional.
This act provided for the election OF
the presidential electors according to
the congressional districts and the
two at large by dividing the state into
two parts. The supreme court of
Michigan had pronounced the law
good and from this decision an appeal
was taken to the supreme court Of the
United States OH the ground that the
fourteenth amendment to the consti.
tuition established the citizenship of
the United States where the state citi-
zenship had heretofore been supreme,
and that its language forbidding the
abridgement Of the privileges OF citi
zens had the effect of preventing the
states from changing the method OF
choosing electors then in vogue.
The court decides that the law is not
obnoxious to that amendment. On
account Of the EFFICIENCY requiring i'm.

Journal: Greenhood, Bohm & Co.,
one of the largest firms in Helena, deal
ers in furnishing goods, liquors and ci-
gars, made an assignment Saturday to
Max Kahn, who has been bookkeeper of
the concern for some time. Including
the large stock and outstanding ac-
counts the assets of the company are
placed at s25OOOO.
The largest sums cwed in this city are
to the banks. The Merchants National
has an overdrawn account of $4,000;
First National, $4,000; Cruise Savings
bank, s. 800; American National, $4,000
One firm in New York, Rejall, $4,000.
The following are the preferred cred
itors as given in the articles of assign
ment filed in the county clerks office:
Mrs. c. Wesheimer, New York, $500;
E. Retail, New York, $4,000; Merchants

Shelton, Helena, 81 900; E. Pode, Helena,
$1,000; Col. Morse, New Chicago, $500;
Henry Hunter, Helena, s6lO.
There were many conflicting rumors
as to settlements and creditors. 1t was
stated that settlement on a 5O per
cent basis had been agreed upon by
some of the principal creditors.
The Merchants National bank issued
an attachment on suit for S34,3 800 dur
ing the afternoon yesterday against the
firm. The papers were placed in the
hands of the sheriff and last evening the
store and stock were taken possession OF
by that officer, although an entrance
was effected only by the aid OF a crow
bar. The failure exceeds in effect any
other that has occurred in Helena and
will have a rather depressing effect in
mercantile circles.

Neces sity the Mother of Invention.

The increasing scarcity and consequent
high price of whalebone drove manu-
facturers and inventors to look around
for substitute. Ofthese there has been
several, but none of them have proven to
be as practical and efficient as feather
bone, and there seems to be a good rea-
son for this, for we learn that all the
other substitutes that have been tried
have proven to be either impracticable
or failed to have the combination Of
strength and elasticity required for the
use in whips, while featherbone, like
whalebone, has all the necessary quail
tiles, and is eleastic bone made under
four distinct patents, from one of the
toughest and strongest materials formed
by nature, namely, the large enamelled
quills of the goose and turkey. These
heavy quilts are put on so as to entirely
surround and cover the body of the
whip and sustain the strain of usage, so
that the wonderful durability of these
whips is due to the pure Quill" they
contain. and the improved plan on which
they are constructed, and as they are
much cheaper than whalebone whips,
they are growing in favor and popular
ity,

LincOln'S Birthday,

The birthday of Abraham Lincoln
was duly observed by republican clubs
throughout the country on the 10Th inst
The Marquette club of Chicago gave a
banquet at the Auditorium, at which
covers we're laid for over 500 persons.
Prominent republicans from all parts of
the country were bldden to the feast
and number were present. President
Harrison sent a letter of regret, in which
he said public duties in Washington
would not permit him to be present.
Among others sending letters of regret
we're Senator Sherman, Chauncey M.
Depew, Hon. j. S. Fassett, Governor Nc
Kinley, Hon. Thomas B. Reed, Gen. AL
ger, Hon. Henry Cabot Lodge and Hon.
Theodore Roosevelt. The principal ad-
dress of the evening was by Senator
Shelby M. Cullom, who recently an
nounced himself as candidate for the
presidency Of the United States, and
who responded to the toast "Abraham
Lincoln" After sketching the life of
the illustrious president and relating
many personal "reminiscences, Senator
Cullom proceeded to contrast the records
of the republican and democratic par
ties. The former he characterized as
the party of progression, the latter one
of negation. Continuing, the speaker
said: "'Don't' has always been the bur-
den of the democratic song and is now.
At this moment it's large majority in the
house of representatives is chorusing
don't Mills, the great disappointed, is
saying to Crisp, don't and Cleveland
and the mugwumps are shouting at

himself, solitary and alone upon the
high eminence of objection, Holman is
crying don't at every person and every
thing. Gentlemen, while Lincoln lived
the democratic party embarrassed him
continually with it's 'don'ts.' It fusi-
lated him with 'donts' at every sten of
his illustrious career, and am sure If he
were among them now, venerable in b;s

by him, ne would be pelted with dr.

Desert Land Rulings,

Yellowstone Journal: Two very i'm
portant rulings have recently been made
by the general land office in relation to
desert land claims The first relates to
the yearly proofs of reclamation that are
required under the amended law of
March 3, 1891. It was issued to regist-
ers and receivers Jan. %, 1892, and signed
by Acting Commissioner Stone. 1t reads:
"Upon failure of party in interest in
desert land entry instituted subse-
quent to March 2, 1891, to file with the
register for transmission to this office, the
required proof (Which should be made
before qualified officer) during any year,
you are directed to notify all parties in
interest that sixty days will be allowed
within which to show cause why the
clam should not be declared forfeited
and the entry cancelled. At the expira-
tion Of that time you will report the rea-
son given, or in case of failure to respond,
report that fact, SO that in either event
proper action may be had by this Office. -
This applies to all desert land claims
that have been made since March l, 1891,
the proof required being work in the
matter of bringing water on the land to
the extent of one dollar per acre each
year. The other ruling relates to the
price per acre to be paid for the land
when final proof is made. Following is
the text of the instructions issued to
land officers under date of Feb. 2.
Under date of jar. 13. 1892, the honor
able secretary of the interior, in consid-
ering the price of desert land under the
act of March 3, 1891, sums up as follows:
"After a careful consideration of this
matter have concluded that the amount
OF money to be paid in acquiring title to
desert lands under the act of March 8,
1891, is s1.25 per acre, without regard to
the situation of the land in relation to
the limits of railroad grants"
Entries initiated prior to March 3, 1891,
will be governed by the regulations then
in force, and if within railroad limits
must be paid for at the rate of $3.50 per
acre.
In all desert land entries initiated
since the passage of the act of March 8.
1891, the price of lands included therein
is s1.25 per acre, without regard to rail-
road limit, and will necessiate an initial
of % cents per acre only. Where par
ties have initiated claim since that
date and have made an initial payment
OF 20 cents per acre, you are authorized
to accept balance of IS cents per acre
upon their submitting final proof
(See Adler, 9 L. D., 429)
The practice has been to rate all
lands within the railroad grant limits
as double minimum land. the price Of
which has been $3.50 an acre. By this
