Gorton's Minstrels Saturday Night.

Gortons Famous Ministries and Gold Band
company viii BE- the attraction at the opera
house next Saturday night In speaking of
their performance the Helena Independent says:
Despite the bad weather Ming's opera house
was filed last night to see Gortons Ministries.
The white satin background and the gold band
instruments used in the first part make one of
the neatest designs seen in Helena. The sing
ing and dancing are exceptionally good and
brought encores. Lew Baker and Hughey
George cracked lot OF new jokes. The melody,
Byebye, Mamma as sung by Lew Baker,
makes the aud -ence rock i'll their seats in uni
son to its soothing strains. The only thing that
equals it is to hear Hughey George in a song
and whistle, The Whistliug Coon There is
fine baritone, J. W. Wilson, who always get a
recall and responds cheerfully. The march of
the White Hussars, with original music by
Joseph Gorton. is splendid piece OF drilling,
followed by Corporal Johnson, the lightning
drill artist. Griffin and Marks, very clever
tumblers, close the performance with Fun in a
Chinese Laundry These are only few of the
features of the entertainment OF this, one of the
best minstrel companies on the road"

Tia Contingent Fee Rusinsss.


There are lawyers in the state who do not
regard with favor legislation like that pro-
posed in the bill relating TO the contingent
! fee evil which has been introduced by Rep
resentative Cumming Of Richmond county.
/ The purpose of the bill is to prevent much
Of the litigation which grows out of the &C
! ceptanoe Of cases on contingent fees, and 20
/ limit the amount Of contingent fees in cases
in which they may be accepted.
A very large number of the cases that
appear on the dockets Of the courts would
not be there at all it those who figure as
plaintiffs were responsible for the fees Of the
the lawyers who bring them. They are
suits which the lawyers take for what they
can make out Of them. and, If reports are
correct, the lawyers get the lions share OF
the proceeds. If the plaintiffs are defeated,
they lose nothing except the time occupied
In attendance upon the courts, and II
they win they may get something
out of their claims There ia, therefore, a
very great inducement for bringing suits
for claims which have very little, IL any,
foundation, because there is a chance OF
either winning or getting a compromise out
OF the defendants. The lawyers who take
these cases lose only their time. and that, as
a general thing, is not very valuable.
Most of the contingent fee suits are
brought, there is reason TO believe, through
the urging Of lawyers. Many Of them are
against railroads for damages. II per
son is injured in a railway accident law
yer is pretty certain 20 hunt him up and
agree to bring suit against the railroad
koI Of "a
covered. On such terms very bad cases ind
their way in the court.
If every man who brings a suit for dam
ages should be required to give bond for
the payment of costs of both sides and for the
fees of the lawyers of the defendants, there
would be much less litigation Of the specu-
lative kind. If he won his suit the bond
would not, Of course, cut any figure in the
transaction, but il he lost he would have to
pay the expense which he forced the de-
PENDANT to incur. There is no good reason
why any person should be compelled TO pay
a lawyer out of his own pocket for defend
have little or no basis.
II Mr. Cummings bill should become a
law there would be a very considerable de-
crease in the amount of litigation, and con-
sequently the cost of maintaining courts
would be much less The argument that il
the contingent fee business was stopped a
great many poor people would be deprived
of chance 70 get what they are legally
entitled to hasn't much force. II a man
has good case he can always get some one
to become his security for costs, or IT might
be provided that the judge shall have
authority to say when a suit may be begun
on a contingent fee.
There is certainly way to pur an end to
practice which has grown to large pro-
portions and is steadily becoming a more
burdensome evil.

The Rise in COTTON.

The extraordinary rise in the price Of
cotton is causing 30 much uneasiness in
England that the London Times has under
taken to create the impression that there is
nothing to justify it. When the Times
undertakes to influence the cotton market IL
may be considered as certain that it has ex-
cellent reasons for doing so. The English
spinners are not now in a very prosperous
condition. The rise in the prices of their
products has not been equal to the rise in
the price of cotton, and, hence, their profits
have practically disappeared.
But the Times will not be able to show
that the rise is not a healthy one. That the
cotton crop in this country is a short one
there is no doubt. The information that
has been collected in respect to the crop is
reliable, and it is believed by the leading
cotton men in this country and Europe.
Nothing the Times can say will change the
belief that the crop will not reach 600 900
bales. The Times may be able to check
speculation in a measure, but those who
want spot cotton are buying it as fest as
they can because they are satisfied that the
longer they wait the more they will have to
pay for it.
The crop IN Texas may not be as short in
| that state as in the other cotton states, but
the yield there will be considerably below
what it was last year. In all the other
states the yield in comparison with that of
last year will be fully Is per cent. less.
The receipts at the ports and the stocks
In the interior towns show very clearly that
those who think that the number Of bales
will be close to the number that was mar
keted In 1891 are mistaken.
The Times, of course, would much rather
see the price cents than 10 cents, but it is
not going to be gratifed. The price may
not 60 much above what it is at present for
several weeks. but that It is going higher
the best informed cotton men confidently
| believe,

"Well, this is how" continued the drummer.
1.-TWO weeks ago 1 went into Boston with a
