Speaking OF politics, as see now and
then an allusiOn TO same In my weekly
paper, reminds me of u little converse
tion / once had with Mr.. Depew regard
ing the fatal results of humor on states
manShip. The discussion arose, think,
from an alluSlon OF mine to the general
gravity noticeable in the Congressional
Record, and even in the proceedings OF
Parliament, although, as Mr.. Depew
admitted, the British are humor low
ing people, preserving and bordering
over some of their jokes for years before
they will even laugh at them.
He told me once that Garfield said to
him that early in life he learned the
fact that II he wished to advance as q
statesman he must not allow himself to
be humorous, so he throttled every deS-
ire himself TO make joke in order TO
be president, land" says Mr.. Depew,
she warned me to beware OF humor as
fatal to political preferment. What
do you think about it?'
l spoke up and said about as follows:
'If you really want TO put yourself
where Mr.. Garfield is-viz., in the bot
tom of q dark grave, two or three miles
from town. and far from postal facili-
ties, in order that your vignette may be
printed on the Invent. ated face OF a
five dollar bill which lies at the bottom
of the sock of soiled dove-now is
yonr time TO throttle the heaven born
smile and thelight hearted bon mot.
will answer your dinner invitation for
YOU so long as old Colonel Gas
trio can lift his arm to his head or the
tired Follicle rise TO greet the frosted
cake. But, begging your pardon" l
said, ''you are greater than Garfield II
greatness is what you're after, and
"AS for fun!
And yictuals!
"Aud friends!
George Washington was wall flower,
a poor boy at frolic, compared with
yourself. 1t iSan ideal existence. The
president is your serf and mine, well
raid but palljd Vassal, with the cock
reaches OF the White House in his vic
tuals and the wet umbrella Of every job
less yahoo under the sun in his hallrack.
He must be open day and night. His
wife and his children belong not to him,
but to the kodacker and the grave. His
DAYS and his nights belong to the pub
lie, and l would rather be union depot
without crime than the President and
body servant Of sixty millions of people,
esch one OF whom has the right to hang
his warm, wet macintosh across the
baby's crib or go into the yard and count
the wash"
1t was at this time that we both made
a solemn promise never TO allow our
names TO be used, no matter how good
our health might be.

Given to the Jury in the Absence of the
Defendant.
M1ssouLA. Oct. 12.-LSpecial. Judge
Marshall to-day granted a new trial to
John Burns. convicted of the murder of
Maurice Higgins, on the grounds that evil
dencs was given to the jury outside the
presence of the court and the defendant.
During the previous trial the jury, by con.
sent of the court, were taken to the old
bridge to investigate the possibility of a
person at one end of the bridge seeing one
Mt the other end, as testified to by Sheriff
Houston. While there Houston is said to
have pointed out the spot where he was
standing when he saw the supposed muir
derer running at the other end. This point
is made the cause of the new trial. The
defendants attorneys say they will intro
duoe some new and important evidence at
the next trial.
The jury in the case Of Ben Payne to. day
brought in a verdict of guilty of burglary
in the first degree. His partner. John
Monroe. will be tried tomorrow. The
crime with which they are charged is break
ing into the Missoula Mercantile company'a
store at Demersvilla and taking about $75
worth of goods. This was one of a series
of bur0laries committed at Demersville
and Kalispell about the same time. and
supposed to have been done by the same
parties. They are also wanted in Deer
Lodge for the theft of q team of horses.

They are sanguine. They insist that the

favor the democrats. 1t is not the Aus

selves have not patented. Under this Con-
n~ectieus system the state furnishes the
official paper and the political parties do

same way, speaking generally, with peoples
of other European races who have emf
grated to this country. The Irish in Con-
n%ecticut are mostly democrats. the Germans
are somewhat divided. but feel very friendly
to Mr.. Cleveland, and the chances are that
the bulk Of the German vote will ba
cast for the democratic candidate. The
Swedes and the English, for some cause I'M
known or unexplainable, are almost solidly
republican. The majority of the factory
employees are either Yankees or Irish and
Germans, or men and women or boys and
girls of Irish or German descent. If l was
a betting man (Which / am not) / would
not hesitate to risk my pile that Conneoti-
cut will give a substantial majority for the
democrats in November.

DENVER, Got. 12.-The snow, rain and
sleet storm which set in last night added a
heavy wind TO it's variety to-day, and all

parts Of Utah was interrupted TO-DAY. In
Denver signs were torn down. cornices torn
off and hundreds of trees either uprooted
or split by the wind. Several persons were
hit by tlying objects, but AZ far as learned
no fatalities occurred. Probably the most
damage done was by falling electric light

dozen horses were killed by being struck by
live wires. Electric cars on many lines
were ut a stands ill and people living in the
suburbs were forced to get home as best

Breckenridge will not deliver the dedica-
tory Grafton at the Worlds fair next Thurs
day. He te%leRraphed President Palmer, of
the national commission, to-day positively
declining. Major Randy, of the press de-
partment of the fair, thinks Breckenridge's
decision is based largely on the nimical at
titude toward him by the Chicago press ut
the time the Kentuckian was opposing the
Worlds fair appropriation bill in the clos
ing days of the last session. 1t is hardly
thought probable my substitute will be
named at this late day, and the officials
