The Contested Election Case.

The contested election case was given
another airing yesterday forenoon, but
the knot seems to be no nearer straight
ened out now than it was before. Coun-
sci for Messrs. Hartwell and Pattie
appeared before Judge Woods in the
Hastings Court, and made motion to
have these gentlemen qualify, claiming
that they were duly elected. The Judge
refused to grant this, as they did not
hold certificates. Then Col J. Hamp-
ton Hoge offered a petition for manda.
mus compelling recount OF the Third
ward vote and correction OF the re-
turns for that ward, but Judge Woods
said he would not hear the case for
reasons before stated Colonel Hoge
thereupon asked to have Judge Blair
hear the motion to day. This was op.
posed by counsel for the other eide on
the grounds that the case had already
come up before Judge Halsey, and they
thought that this matter should be
referred to him also. Judge Woods
reserved his decision on tn Is point until
this morning.
1t was stated last night that Judge
Woods had autographed to Judge Halsey
asking him to come here Saturday to
hear the petition for mandamus

fuse on an important question to accept
the dictation of the Miner, they ale
"cringing ours" who have cold them
selves for "a beggarly pittance." The
list of these gentlemen is before The
TRIBUNE, but there is no need to men
ton names They are men who are an
honor to any community, self-respectinR,
law-sbiding men, men who in every re-
lation of life, business, political, social,
domestic, are the equals of any in
Montana, men who measured by any
gage come up to the full standard OF
American citizenship. And there are 90
many of them. In Butte, where all are
known, no attention is paid to the raw
ings Of the insensate villifier. They do
not go near enough the mud to soil their
boots, but allow the Miner to wallow in
it's own mire. Attention is only called
to the above excerpt from the Miner to
show the utter hopelessness of the Hell
ens cause in Butte and to prove what
has 90 often been said, that Helena has
no argument to advance why it should
have the capital, and. lacking argument,
it has no weapon but abuse.

placard: "This man was selected for
an important trust, but Helena decided
that he was q common thief unworthy
Of confidence or belief, and at Helena's
command the commissioners who ap.
pointed him agree with Helena and re-
woke his appointment" we'll and good.
The question is serious one for the
gentlemen whose good name, is in.
volved, whether they be appointors or
appointees.
1t is matter of regret that Anaconda
even under protest agreed to 30 mon
strous proposition. 1t is q gratuitous
insult to all who are affected and Ana
conda should have taken a bold stand,
and positively declined to become q
party to any such scheme. Under what
right do these committees assume to
take charge Of the election machinery of
the state, and dictate to county COM
miseioners who shall and who shall not
be judges and clerks. BY what right,
moral or legal, do they impugn the
honesty of their fellow citizens. who have
been selected. 1t is an insulting and in
defensible position and in this case a
retreat on the part Of Anaconda would
be more creditable than even the forced
acquiescence it has made.
As to the other suggestions Of the Hell
ena committee, they are not worth men,
tioning. Either side can have it's chal-
lengers at the registration places and at
the polls. Either party can offer re-
ward for the detection and punishment
Of illegal voting without consulting the
other. The fact is that the law is ample
to protect both the contestants; let each
Of them adopt measures to see that the
law is enforced. 1t is required that in
the selection of judges and clerks the
different political parties shall be recog.
nized, and if this has not been done the
mistake can be remedied. The law de.
mands that it shall. 1t is not reason.
able to suppose that outside of the cities
of Helena and Anaconda both capital
sides will not have friend among the
officers already appointed who are al
capable and conscientious as any who
could be appointed under the Helens
proposition. The advice of The TRIBUNE
is that each side take care Of it's owr
interests within the law, have confidence
in their fellow. citizens who have beer
selected as Judges, and do not interfere
with them or with the duties Of those
who are charged with their appointment

HELENA BOYCOTTERs.

Weinstein & Co. is the title Of firm
doing business in Helena which pub
lished display advertisement column
in length In the Independent Of Septem-
ber 30, 1894, in which they declared that
o conspiracy had been entered into by
rival merchants in Helena to drive them
out Of business. In their advertisement
in the Independent Of September 80,
1894, Weinstein & Co. declared that there
had been secret meeting of the con-
spirators at which speeches were made
and several plans discussed to injure and
ruin their business. This is not Of
special Importance, but mention is made
Of It to show that the old-timers In Hell
ena will not, II they can prevent 1t, per-
init any competition on the part OF new
comers. In their advertisement referred
to in the Independent Of September 30,
1894, Weinstein Il Co. assert that the &C.
cusations they make against the Helsns
merchants are true and dare them to
deny the charges. The TRIBUNE is not
acquainted with Weinstein & Co., but q
the Independent published their serious
charges against Helena men they must
be reputable and responsible firm.

NEW TUNE NEEDED.

A band Of the Helena corporation at
torneys invaded Billings Saturday and
held Helena for the capital meeting.
To this there can be no objection. Hell
ena has a right to hold meetings II
people can be induced to attend them.
Some do go to them even in Great Falls,
just for curiosity to hear whether the
inventive genius of Helena has dis
covered any new line Of abuse toward
those who differ from them. 1t 40
happened that Saturday night while
George M. Borquin Of Helena. was in
this city exercising his lungs, and dis
playing his assinine qualities by telling
the few who listened to him, that "Ana.
conda is feudal city, inhabited by
barbarians," the sanity and honest w.
E. Cullen. of Helena, was in Billings in
sulting the people Of that city. Ac-
cording to report in the Helena Inde-
pendent this is what he said: "Tbe
Judge further stated that it would be
impossible for him to wear an Ana
conda badge as he thought every honest
man would look at it and wonder how
much he was paid for his vote or how
much he wanted for it,"
It is about time thst Helena called in
that chestnut. When the campaign be-
gun the committee evidently thought it
would be trump card, and the papers
and orators were instructed to play it
for all it was worth. They imagined
that universal accusation that every
man who espoused the Anaconda cause
had been purchased would have tell
ing effect and terrorize Anaconda men,
But they had reckoned without their
host. The Anaconda men were legion
they organized clubs, attended meetings
made speeches, displayed badges to such
an extent and with such unanimity
that those who were undecided reached
the conclusion that the accusation was g
lie, and by way of resenting it they, too
begun to wear Anaconda badges.
1t is a pity that Helena cannot strike
new lead to revive interest in it's de
caying cause. Abuse of Marcus DAILY
and of the men who support Anaconda
is played out. II it cannot advance ,
reason why the capital should be LOCATED
at Helena, it should at least vary tn
monotony and allege new objection Il
Anaconda. The people have shown tha
they take no stock in "Czarism" o
"bribery," invent q new tune.

FALSE REPORTS.

The Helena papers and the Butte
Miner are still keeping up their silly and
bluster, and claiming that
Silver Bow county will give q majority
for Helena. The claim is preposterous
and without foundation. It can have
no effect In Butte or Silver Bow county,
but it is serious injustice to the few
Helena men In other sections. Some Of
them are putting faith in these false
pretenses and on the strength Of them
are led to make money wagers. This is
certainly wrong. The Helena papers
know when they make such statements
they are telling downright lies.
At the election of 1892 there were
5000 votes cast in Silver Bow county,
and in that county at present the Ana
conds for the capital clubs have an en-
rolled membership Of over 5000. In the
face Of this it is remarkable that Helena
will put forth such outrageous state
ments. They can do their cause no
good and may seriously injure some of
their friends financially. This warning
is given in good faith and the Helena
men in this section who have been mis-
led by the false reports will do we'll to
take heed.
