To SATISFY the exacting demands OF
an Arkansas mob is n task beyond the
limitations Of jurisprudence. The other
day a grand jury indicted a man for
murder in the second degree, but dis
appointment over the result caused a
mob to take the alleged murderer from
his cell and hang him to the first tele-
graph pole. 1t is this sort Of violence
that makes lynch law q synonym for
cowardice in communities whore the
forms of justice prevail under other
conditions. 1t would be gratifying it a
grand jury could be found able to send
each member OF the mob to the peni.
Tertiary, but such a body was never
known in such a place.

THE rRANsM1ss1ss1pr1 CONGRESS.

Montana ought to have q fine repre-
s~entation at the Trans-M Mississippi con-
gress which opens at Ogden next week.
The delegates will come from all states
and territories west Of the Mississippi
river and are divided as follows: Each
state or territory is entitled to ten dele
gates at large appointed by the gov
ernor, each county is entitled n and
each city to one for every five thousand
OF population. A commercial body like
a board OF trade or a chamber OF COM
MERGE can send a delegate while the
governors OF states and mayors OF cities
are members of the board ex-officio.
None of the congresses thus far have
been held at a point so near Montana as
Ogden. 1t is hardly more than twenty
four hours from the most distant rail
way point in this state and SO far as
Montanians are concerned, a more con-
venient meeting place could not have
been named. The absence of large dele
cations would therefore reflect our lack
of interest in the very important sub
iects to be considered at this time.
Helena, in particular, should be we'll
represented to the end that a wide ac-
quaintance may be secured with the
delegates and the promoters of the con-
gress with a view Of bringing one OF the
future gatherings to this city.
The first Trans Mississippi congress
was held at Galveston in 1889. Others
have been held at Denver, Omaha and
New Orleans. The main object in view
is to promote the interests of the trans
Mississippi country. This, of course.
includes a wide range of work. The
most important feature and that fol
which the members have labored most
vigorously, is to secure needed legisla'
ton from our national congress. This
relates to free coinage of silver, the re-
clamation of arid lands, aid to irrigation
in every way, the improvement of nayi-
cation on western rivers and the widen
ing of harbors and kindred subjects o.
public Importance. 1t proposes to &C
after these things in an organized way
and invites the assistance of al! who
have interests in this country.
The interests of Montana are closely
allied with this movement. The price
of silver scarcely moves from So cents
and without much hope of be
coming higher the metal demands
the use of all efforts to place i
where it should be. The Trans
Mississippi congress is for free coinage
and in this work needs the assistance o.
Montanians. No western state has
greater interest in irrigation than Mon
tana. Our arid lands must be reclaimed
before we can hope to maintain a larg
population. At Ogden plans will b
discussed, committees named an
methods determined upon to prescott
this work with all vigor.
Under these conditions, it is hope
that the delegates appointed by Go,
Richards will be representative me
with enough loyalty to Montana to Civ
their time and efforts to the promotio
r of this great work of the west as it wi
be carried on at Ogden. Various board
of trade should take like interest an
= thus let the other delegates know tht
| Montana is with them in heart, soul an
: spirit.
