 It is no comfort to tell man not to cry. The world comes up and says, "Oh, it is only the body of your loved one that you have put in the groundr' But there is no comfort in that.

Away with your heartlessness, oh, worldl But come, Jesus! and tell us that when the tears fall they fall into Gods bottle; that the dear bodies of our loved ones shall rise radiant in the resurrection, and all the breakings down here shall be lifted up there, and ''they shall hunger no more, neither thirst DO more, neither shall the sun light on them, nor any heat, for the Lamb which is ill the midst of the throne shall lead them to living fountains of water, and God shall wipe all tears from their eyes,

ONLY A SMALL SALOON.
But IL has Given Tioublc to the Leading
officials of Both Countries.

But it has Given Trouble to the Leading
officials of Both Countries.
Last week the TRIBUNE published
something from the River Press about
the notorious Sweet Grass saloon, situa
ted about 100 feet this side of the Can
adam line on the Great Falls and Canada
railway. From a conversation had with
a gentleman from that locality yesterday
it is no eXaggcration to %corroborate
everything contained in that article as
to the resort or '%'joint" being a menace
to the best interests of both countries.
1t has given and continues to give no
small amount of trouble to the revenue
officers Of both countries and to the
mounted police department of Canada.
1t embarrases those officers in more ways
than any one not acquainted with the
circumstances Of the case %imagines.
Standing on almost neutral ground it
affords a drinking and l~oafing place for
the worst specimens of humanity SO fire.
quently found on the borders. This
saloon has a license issued by the au-
thorities of Choteau county and in Il
certain sense has some rights which
have to be respected when the law and
right Of the matter is under considera-
ton. The fact of the place being to a
certain degree legalizcd by the usual
state and federal licenses makes it all
the more difficult to abate by those who
are working to that end on this side.
Some definite action will probably be
taken before the district court at Ben
ton today or tomorrow and there is
every reason to believe the career of this
notorious place is about ended.
No small amount of official red tape
was exhausted before the case reached
the state department at Washington,
from whence it may have gone even to
the president. Two months were con
sumed in the journey of the complaint
from its origin in the Montana police de
partment of the Northwest territory
through the various bureaus of that gov
eminent to the English minister at
Washington. who laid the matter before
Secretary Blaine. The roundabout way
it travelled is unique and interesting. A
complaint was first filed with Supt. Dean
of the northwest mounted police depart
ment, who referred it to his superior at
Ottawa. The latter laid the matter
before the priyy council and from that
august body 1t went to the governor
general of Canada. He communicated
with Sri Julian Paunccforte the Egg
lish minister at Washington who laid it
before the state department.
That small saloon on the northern line
of Montana has thus been the means of
worrying the leading governmental Of
ticials of two countries and the end is
not yet. Sweet Grass may become a
historical spot.

no reference to the ridiculous salary

put and unanimously carried. We rise
to softly inquire why is this thus?
In the face of these facts one OF the

ried with the usual unanimity; and here
we stop to inquire, retract what?
Although the minutes suppress it, the
fact is nevertheless that the council by
motion voted the mayor and aldermen
back pay and expected to draw future
pay, to which they had no legal right.
This act was opposed and denounced by

Fight Between q. y. Troops and Garza's
Men.

LAREDO, Tex, Jan. CA telegram was
received late this evening from Gen.
Reyes, commander of the Mexican
troups now operating on the border
against CARA, the revolutionist, states
that a considerable engagement took
place yesterday evening between United
States troops and a band of Graza's
men at La Joha Crossing on the Rio
Grande in which Garza's men were put
to flight leaving a number of horses and
arms in possession of the United States
forces.
The fight took place on the bank of
the river and two of the bandits jumped
into the river to make their escape. One
was shot and the other was taken pris-
oner by the Mexican troops, who moved
along the river front on the Mexican side
in conjunction with the United States
forces. A later telegram from Gen.
Reyes says a report reached his head
quarters that a detachment of American
cavalry, escorting a lot Of captured Cara
men to Brownsville for trial by United
States court, we're attacked by a COM
pany Of Garza's men below Edinburg
and the prisoners rescued.

should make a Typographical survey of
the arid lands Of each state, locate sites
for reservoirs and run lines for canals
and lateral bitches. 1t should then
cede such arid lands to the states in
which they lie under such stipulations
as would he just to all parties concern

out unnecessary delay to complete its
system of irrigation. The attention OF
the convention is respectfully called to
this proposition.

THE VEN l'OHk MIDDLE.

Senator Edwards, of the New York
Legislature, occupies a larger portion of
the public eye, just at present, than any
other man in that state. He holds the
key to the situation which the republi-
cans can bring about by abscnting them
selves from the state capital, thus pre-
venting the presence of a quorum in the
senate and the organization Of that
body. He was elected as an indcpen-
dent republican. The interest in the
situation is intensified by the fact that
if Edwards answers to the roll call the
democrats can immediately organize and
proceed to settle a contested election
case which will come before that body
at the earliest moment. II the case be
settled in favor of the democratic CON
testant republican opposition or tilibus-
tering thereafter vii! simply be q waste
Of time as the democrats will constitute
Il quorum and a working ma jority for
the transaction Of business.
If the conditions were reversed and
Lieut.. Governor Richards or ~cs-Spcakcr
Reed presided over the New York senate
the muddle would be settled in a iilry.
Richards would find no difficulty in fig
uring out that sixteen is a quorum in a
membership Of thirty two and Reed
would count a man in the cloak room to
make it. But it appears the New York
democratic senators have a good deal to
earn in the organization Of Legislative
bodies. \ few lcssonH from either of the
above named gentlemen would perfect
them in the business. But seriously,
what do our republican contemporaries
say about the proposition for the rcpub-
licdn senators To run away. thus pre-
venting an organization of the New
York legislature. VIII thay repeat the
choice epithets bestowed, IA couple years
ago. upoa the democratic senators who
found business in Oregon requiring their
immediate attention: Or will they say
nothing? The whirligig Of time and
revolutions in politics often bring about
some startling changes in the attitudes
Of persons and newspapers toward a
given proposition.

learned the senate organized. Edwards
