THE WEEKLY TRIBUNE.
LET No GUILTY MAN ESCAPE.
FRIDAY. FEBRUARY IL. 1893.

Long before the struggle for the sena
torship came up at Helena, it was openly
said that men who had votes to sell
could make plenty of money in disposing
of their support for this great office
Frequently since then open charges of
bribery and attempted bribery have ap-
peared in the public press, and of late
the air of Helena has fairly stunk from
the corruption growing u Of this con
test.
No matter who is to blame. it is a dis
grace to this state. and an outrage which
should be resented by every decent mar
in the commonwealth. If half is true
that is reported, the peritentiary is too
good a place for many men in whom the
public has wrongly rcposed confidence
and the sooner they are put there the
better it will be for the name Of Mon
tana. since there is no worse place in
this world to which they can be con-
signed. They are doubtless too far gone
so suffer from the consuming hell of an
outraged conscience.
Let the threatened Investigation pro-
coed. Let democrats and republicans
work hand in hand to ferret out the
truth and to bring coudign punishment
90 any and every man who has taken
part in this wretched business. No mat
ter how high the offenders may be let
them he hung up to the public gaze on
the gihbet Of public scorn, and let not
the young be corrupted and ruined by
the degrading spectacle Of high and hon
orable office bartered and sold. The gold
ribbed plutocrat who buys or tries
10 boy is no better than the needy beg
rar who sells his vote. and all such are
in league with Satan to destroy the
leaycn-born fabric Of this republic.

nothing, and We do not conceive that it

veto it. 1t can be made more clear and

HOME RULE FOR IRELAND.

~ itSt II dDltdlS llIul WI NlluNiStOllt
has formulated IA scheme for giving
home rule to Ireland which might meet
with the approval of all the progressive
elements in British politics, But it will
not. The grand old man. explained
the bill in detail in the house of com
mons on Monday. Even his opponents
admit the strength and fairness of the
measure. 1t gives the people OF Ireland
a legislature Of their own, both branches
of which are elective; contemplates the
gradual elimination of the co~nstabulary
force, and, in brief, places Ireland in al
most the same situation with relation to
the imperial government, as one of our
states holds to the government at Wash
ington, though it is very clear Mr.. Glad
stone contemplated no such resem-
b.ance.
With the present condition of political
thought in England it is scarcely to be
expected that even so liberal a measure
as this will receive sufficient support to
enact it into law. The measure contains
the most complete safeguards for the
crown, and the maintenance Of the i'm
perial sway, but ii secures to the people
of Ireland as a whole the most precious
rights of self government.
At the outset the bill is confronted by
strenuous opposition on the part Of .
section of the people it is intended to
benefit. South of the Boyne the people
are mostly Catholics, while to the north
of that river a majority of the inhabi-
tants are descended from the old scotch
Covenanters. In the whole of Ireland
the Catholics are vastly in the majority,
and the Protestants always oppose any
thing tending towards home rule or ma
tionalism for ireland because they real
ize that they must occupy the position
of a helpless minority if an Irish parlia.
ment is established at Dublin.
\ most rational solution of the problem
would have been to divide ireland into
two states, giving each the right to have

Mrs. lgnatius Donnelley, during my
recent visit TO her famous husband in st
Paul. gave me a glimpse into the simple
ity of his character by the recital Of two
entertaining anecdotes, says a writer in
the Chicago Post. Mr.. D0nnelly was al
ways a studious man and books were the
delight and inspiration of his life. Years
ago when he was a Struggling Young
lawyer in Minnesota the approaching
cold weather reminded the guJd wife
that it was tine for Mr.. Ign.tius to
buy il warm suit of clothes. She had
charge of the family finances. and Going
10 tine treasury she took thcrefrOm IL
sufficient amount to buy the scholar Il
comfortable suit TO resist the p.nchCR Of
Jack Frost. At that time they Wrra liv-
ing On their farm 4 dozen niles or SO
from st. Paul. Young Duuuelly took
the cash and started Off on a wagon to
make the purchase, At night ne re-
turned wearing his simmer suit, but
bearing in his arms Il large bundle.
Where are the clothes. my dear?" she
inquired.
Il didn't buy thcm,' was his answer.
when | got TO ST. Paul ! visited u book
store and was 50 taken with the literary
treasures displayed there that / madou up
my mind that | could get along with my
summer suit until next fall, but that |
couldn't get along without the books.
$50 bought them, And are they not a
tine collection" he added, ~unwrapping
them and arranging them before the
wifc's eyes.
Of course she agreed with him that
thy were very tine, but her womanly
20 ri sense led her to remark that it
would have been much better for his
comfort If he had passed by the books
and bought the clothes.

SAYS the Teton Times: .'1'he gam
blers must go. That is the verdict of
the revised code if it is adopted as ituow
stands. There will be some objections
made to this clause and the principle
one will be that the government will be
deprived of a fruitful source of revenue.
When it is considered from where the
money comes which the gamblers turn
over to the government this argument
falls fiat. 1t from the laboring
men or some other producer and merely
passes through the hands Of the gam

Gradually the people are waking up, and
this state is under deep obligations to
the men who formed the new code. The
obligation will also extend to the legisla-
tors who enact it INTO law.

LONDON, April PA man named
William Townsend is under arrest
charged with firing revolver with in.
tent to kill William e. Gladstone. The
whole affair is more or less shrouded in
my stery and doubt. Townsend is 8,
years OF age and resident of Sheffield.
Inc Gazette states that the alleged
attempt upon the life OF the Primo Min
lister was made while he was walking in
st. James Park, at midnight last night.
on his way to his home in Downing
street.
Gladstone. who attended a dinner
party last night, was walking home
about the time the man who fred the
revolver was arrested. He said nothing
OF the occurrence, and no one believes
mat any attempt was made to shoot
him.
When the shooter was arraigned in
the Bow street police court this morn.
ing the policeman who made the arrest
stated that the man discharged the re-.
volver In the horse guards parade near
Downing street. He evidently intended
to shoot the officer. An examination OF
o note book In his possession revealed
the fact that it contained mass of raw.
lngs against the Irish home rule, among
which was the suggestion that the MUIR
der OF Gladstone would be justiflable.
Upon this slender foundation the
report OF the attempted murder of Glad
stone was constructed. Some of the
entries in the note look read: "Irish
home rule bill has passed it's second
reading by full majority, including
the cur Saunders. Talking does not
convert. Now is the time for action.

nothing OF the kind be justified? Now

night. What says Sanderson?"
at this point the presiding magistrate
refused to read any further. He in
structed the jailor to guard the prisoner
with the utmost care.
