ru6Ile anu pSTspirhtlou-sueou!bS oI bHe ordinary short campaign would be elimin- ated and in place of them our really best citizens, who had devoted @ reasonable amount of time all the year round in keep ing the machine In frst.clsss condition, could go about their business, get health full amount of peaceful sleep. and watch the results without fear or shame.
 Sometimes am not sure that this happy state of affairs can be brought about. If 1t Is, 1t will be through the instrumentality of thsse clubs gathered here today. When it is, questions about the sizs of a mans bank account will be good deal less ire quently asked when the selection of caRdi- dates is ia order; kings of the lobby will be sent to the rear; corruption funds will be diverted to channels for removing cor ruption instead of making 1t; the party machine will not te in danger of being wrecked by ignorant men, nor will design ing or crooked men have a place in its makeup or operations.
 Great orators. brass bands and possibly even torchlight processions will continue to have some place in connection with po- litical work, but with the young men who are enrolled in our clubs, doing missionary work among their friends and -neighbors all the year round, the necessity of these expensive adjuncts to 6 campaign will very rapidly diminish, and in their place we will see every citizen holding above personal ambition and even above personal comfort the desire to have every government in which he Is interested, whether it is na- tienal, state or town, 50 clean, 50 efficient, that every other government would look to them and study them as models.
 We are in this movement to assist to the beet of our ability in securing the greatest good for the greatest number, not for per sonal gain or glory, and without the greatest number is number one."
 We ask the cooperation of all voters who think the result of the club movement likely to be beneficial. We are opsn to counsel and advice from whoever 1t may come-like ell the rest of humanity, we love them who love us.n

Cottonwood Report.
On Wednesday evening there
occurred a difficulty at Bob Nu-
gents saloon and restaurant which
may yet prove serious. 1t seems
that Mr.. Harrington, commonly
known as "Curly," who has been
boarding at Mr.. Nugent's was
drinking pretty heavily during the
fore part of the day, went into the
dining room at supper time and sat
down in his accustomed seat, but
there was no plate at his place and
taking it as an intended slight, got
up and left the room. When Mr..
Nugent came out of the dining
room where he had been waiting on
the table, Curly accused Mr.. NJ
gent of insulting him, which was
denied, when Curly called on Geo.
Reeves, Mr.. Nugent's barkeeper, to
prove that he had been insulted.
Mr.. Reeves refused to decide the
question, saying that he did not
want anything to do with any
dispute. At this time Curly left
the place and went up town; he
was gone a few minutes and re-
turned when he and Mr.. Reeves
became engaged in an argument
which ended in a fight wherein Mr.
Reeves received two cuts on the lief
arm, one on the right arm, one OF
the left foot, one at the lower poin
of the brast bone and one in tn
right side.
DR.. Turner was summoned ant
dressed the wounds. He pronounc
ed the case serious, but not necess
orily fatal.
Harrington was arrained befor
Justice Robbins yesterday upon tn
charge of assault with intent t
kill and was given until to-day t
procure counsel and plead to tn
charge.
Mr.. Harrington is held undo
bonds to appear at the next teri
5 of the District court.

Next to the man who invented or dis
covered fire, the greatest benetactor of
the human race will be the man who
abolishes smoke. Nothing else will SO
change the conditions of life in our
great cities. Without saying that this
result is already at hand, great step to-
ward it is made by the new invention in
tireplaces. By this system fire can
undoubtedly be produced without
smoke, and though at present special
fireplace must be employed for.the pur-
pose there is no reason why every one
who henceforth fits up a kitchen range
or a furnace should not have smoke
less one. I expect to see the time when
every householder as well as every man
ufacturer will be compelled, to consume
his own smoke. In the meantime, how
ever, there is the strongest inducement,
short of compulsion, for doing So, for
the system, like all which are based on
perfecting the combustion of the fuel,
gives a largely increased heat for re-
duced consumption of coal.-London

Wanted a Good Foot.

Models are an important part of a
sculptor need. l doubt whether in this
particular we differ from our Greek
predecessors, for we read of choice pres
ents, such as peacocks, given by Phidias
to his models, showing how much he
valued them, presumably because it was
as difficult then as now to get good ones.
obe model is business of itself,
and when we remember the number of
art schools there are. even in London
alone. and the many artists who are en-
tirely dependent upon them. it may be
realized what large body they must be.
The men are mostly Italians, chiefly,
i am told, from the sneighborhood Of
Naples. The women are, as rule, Eng
lish and have often sat from babies. To
find we'll formed foot is almost an i'm
possibility among the best of them, ow-
ing TO the long cramping in boots, but q
friend. once told me that he had cast
of the foot of an Indian woman that
was as beautiful as the foot of Greek
statue.
Our English models lack often the
suppleness of figure that distinguishes
more southern races, such as the Italian,
which is partly accounted for by the
heavy, cumbersome clothes cur climate
necessitates. But such as they are we
have to make the best of them, and q
really good one is eagerly sought after.
Good Words.

The Man Who Tired Carlyle.

There is story of Carlyle in his old
age having taken the following fare
we'll in his broadest Scotch of a young
friend who had had him in charge for
walks, and who while almost always
adapting himself to Carlyle's mood had
on single occasion ventured to dis
agree with him, Il would have you to
know, young man, that you have the
capacity of being the greatest bore in
Christendom. The boredom had con-
sisted solely in the rather negative sin
of not having been convinced of the
truth of one of Carlyle's dogmas, sin
all the more heinous because, instead of
standing boldly up to Carlyle and de-
claring his doctrine utterly peryerse,
the companion had betrayed his weak
ness by an apologetic tone.
Now, Carlyle liked disciples, and be
respected antagonists, but he could not
endure being merely thwarted without
being thoroughly reused. He felt in
that case that he had made no impress
sion at all on his interlocutor; that he
had neither won him nor excited him
to resistance. And nothing bored him
SO much as that. OF course it is only
exceptionally despotic minds that are
bored in this way.-London Spectator.

"THEM WAS HIS sENTlMENTs.p
And the Old Unreconstructed Confederate
Took Pains to Make Them Known.

And the Old Unreconstructed Confederate
Took Pains to Make Them Known.
Very many of the early settlers of
Montana were natives of Missouri, Ken
lucky, Arkansas and the border states
of the war. They came by the Missouri
river to Fort Benton or by coach from
Omaha and for many years were in the
majority at elections, when they held
the flag of Democracy to the masthead.
The result of this immigration was a
strong sentiment for the confederacy in
the early days, and in 1878, when Cen
eral Phil Sheridan and staff made an
official visit to the northwestern posts,
the sentiment had not disappeared.
Helena, Mon, was just emerging from
the garb of a mining camp, but a few
enterprising citizens with Ex-Governor
Hauser at the head determined to give
a fitting reception to the visitors. A
delegation met Sheridan and his party
in a stagecoach several miles from the
town and escorted them to the leading
hotel. On the following afternoon a
banquet was given in the First National
bank, located then in the present gam
bling district.
The menu consisted mostly of canned
goods, jack rabbit meat and fresh game,
because the town was remote from civ
ilization. There was, however, plenty
of champagne, since that wine is usu-
ally found in mining camps even when
nothing in the way Of food is left but
-four. The gathering was very demo-
cratic. Everybody in town was invited
to see Little Phil" though there was
much grumbling among the unrecon-
structed Confederates over the display
made for Union. general. There were
lawyers and mining camp politicians
mingled with gamblers, miners and ex-
road agents, many of whom wore six
shooters at their belts. Among them
was one old time Confederate soldier,
who had turned his talents from the
chivalry of war to dealing bank" He
was restless and uncomfortable during
the feast, and when the toasts began
this restlessness increased. His face
ger as various toasts were given to the
United States, the president of the
United States and the army of the
United States.
Finally he could stand it no longer.
He arose with winegldss in one hand
and six shooter in the other, and in a
voice hoarse with rage shouted:
Here's to all mankind, so that no
id fool will be overlooked"
With that he dashed the wineglass on
the floor and emptied the six shooter
into the ceiling SO that the room was
filed with smoke. The guests reached
for their revolvers, but the gambler,
with lcok of contempt, returned his
gun" to his pocket and walked out.
General Sheridan afterward said that
it was one of the most dramatic and
suggestive scenes in all his experience.

Americas Great Danger
AN ENGLISH COMMENTARY.

Said an eminent English scientist recently:
"The danger that confronts the great Ameri-
can people to-day is not the possible adop-
ton of wrong financial policy for the
nation, or the spread of socialism, or the
increase of corruption among public men.
All these are bad enough, to be sure, but
they are as nothing compared to the terrible
national disease-1 had almost said national
crime-of overwork. The mad rush for
wealth is set at a killing pace, and thousands
fall by the way every year.
You are likely to be one Of the victims

ton to find man or woman of adult age in
