LAWYERS AND THE SITE.

When doctors disagree what is 10 be-
come of the patient When lawyers dis
agree the htgants must take care of
themselves and the devil take the hind
most. 1t has now transpired that the
reason for the third adjournment of the
capitol site commission was because the
members we're somewhat undecided in
regard to certain questions that had
been raised. The opinion of Attorney
C,eneraI Haskell was invoked and
D'onptly given, but that did not seem to
lit the members and they called III an
mo 'l)cal lawyer who without regard to
,ouaequences reversed the opinion of AIR.

tLIt ap!a might be wrong and rather
than take any chances they would ad

dition Of affairs is only interesting
because it demonstrates that there
are in the state public function
aries who are not ready and wiling to
accept the opinions OF Haskell as gospel.
They may not mean to r. 'lect upon the

MURDER OF MISSION ARR ES.

This time American missions in Tar
eus, Asia Minor, have been attacked and
The American minister at Constantlnople
mas been directed to protest and inter
fere. He will no doubt do 50. On the
heels of the Armenia massacre and that
in China, this news is rather dishearten-
ing to the people OF the United States
who are Interested in foreign missions.
This is Sunday morning and it is good
time to stop and think whether the gain
of souls compensatee for the hard.
ships endured and the risks run by the
missionaries. 1t is the opinion of many
earnest Christians that it does not. They
hold that there is an ample field for mis-
sionary work in this country and that
like charity the conversion OF souls
should begin at home. That the Ameri-
can flag should protect its citizens en-
gagged in proper pursuits in any quar-
ter OF the globe is beyond ques.
tion. 1t is the symbol of our great
nation and as such must be respected
On the other hand there are really good, !,
patriotic, religious citizens Of the United
States who are imbued with the idea
that the conversion of few heathens,
even if it is accomplished, is not worth
the risk that the missionaries assume
and will not by any means compensate
for an international quarrel. There are
others, and they are not few, who hold
that the tenets Of Buddah or Confucius
are u good enough religion for any ma
ton and that If the masses in the East
can be made to believe in that it is all
they need. This being the case, the best
thing to do is for the missionaries to
labor at home. They may not save as
many souls, but they will always have a
better chance for their lives. No matter
how pagan this country may be, the
point is not yet reached where men or
women are murdered because OF their
religious opinions.

Finally Settled.

Finally Settled.
OMAHA, Aug. l4.-The situation ia the
Omaha police muddle has changed
materially. Since an early hour the City
hall has been surrounded by large
crowd, mostly curiosity seekers. No
effort was made to disperse them. The
A. p. A. commission convened at 10
O'Clock in the rooms reserved for their
use by the city council. The quarters
were crowded by probably 200 sympa-
thizers. A letter was sent to the old
commission asking conference, with
out, however, stating the object. The
old commission agreed, and the meeting
was held in the mayors Office After an
amin 4ted discussion, the old fire and po-
lice commission refusing any compromise
except on the basis of permitting the su-
preme court to pass on the situation, the
A. p. A. commission consented, and it
was agreed that the old commission
should continue to conduct the offices of
the city until a decision is rendered.
This was coneidered definite settle
ment.

TO the Editor of The Tribune:
The fair to be held at Great Falls on
Oct. l, 2, g. and under the direction of
the Cascade County Agricultural associ.
alton will be most important event for
northern Montana.
The directors of the association are
making great efforts to bring together
large number Of people at Great Falls
during the four days Of this, the first
fair ever held in northern Montana, and
they now have every reason to believe
that the attendance will not only be
large from Cascade county, but that
many people will be present from Cho-
teau, Teton, Fergus, and Valley coun-
ties.
The display Of farm products, live
stock, and minerals will be on large
scale and will be very attractive. Not
the least among the attractions on this
occasion will be the address OF the dis
tinguished orator and author, the Hon
Ighatius Donnelly Of Minnesota.
Now, my object in writing this short
communication, is, II possible, to impress
upon the business men and citizens of
Great Falls generally, the Importance of
taking proper interest in this event.
The directors of the association, in
locating the fair here, have relied upon
the support Of the public spirited people
OF Great Falls, and they trust that they
will not be disappointed in their ex-
pectations.
To make the fair great success, the
supplemented by the active efforts of the
management can rely upon the hearty
cooperation of Great Falls people, it will
be a long time before another fair will be
held here. PARIS GIBSON.

PARROT AND MONKEY TIME
Members of the Convention Voted to Raise Their Per Diem and Then Got Scared
 at What They Did.

Columbia, s. C., Nov. 19.-The consti- tutional convention today continued the consideration of the article on education, reading subject to good many amend ments then to be considered. The clause providing for a negro agricultural. in- dustriaf and mechanical college was amended so as to divorce the present Clafiin col1ge from Clafiin university, and allowing negro teachers only to be employed. The article as amended puts the, iispeusary profits, exclusive of those given to counties and cities, into the an- nual public school funds.
 The constitutional convention had a regular parrot and monkey time tonight. The legislature last year fixed the per diem. of the members at g day. An ordinance to provide for the dsburse- ment of the s30,000 appropriated to de- fray the expenses of the convention was taken up tonight, and it provides for a per diem of $4 for members after October Is last and to the final adjournment.
 The convention rushed ahead and adopted this and then increased the pay of all employees until the per diem pro- vided amounted to about $55. 900. Eighty nine members came to the hall pledged to vote themselves $4 day. so Senator Tillman stated on the floor. and no one denied the assertion. When they real ized what they had done and how much they. had voted an, attempt was made to recall the action by conservative-minded members. Amid the greatest confusion the convention finally left all the em- pIoyes at a low rate and voted them selves a per diem of $4, this conclusion being reached few minutes before mid niQhf

Montgomery Nov. 19.-(Special.)- )-The impression has gone our that Senator Pugh stated in his speech at Livingston that he was not candidate for re-elec- ton to the senate. A report of Governor Oates speech at Clayton yesterday in dicates that the governor was under the impression the senator had so declared. Colonel Pugh was asked by your core spondent today about the matter and replied that his name would certainly go before the caucus of the next general as- sembly-that he was candidate for one office only and that was the senatorship.
 Senator Pugh was very much gratified with the results of his series of speeches with Senator Morgan. He said they had been greeted with large audiences and the most hospitable reception every where. He said the audience at Tuska- loosa was smaller than elsewhere on ac- count of the rain. He was enthusiastic about the meeting at Thomasville yes- terday.
 The senators will speak at Union Springs tomorrow.

 be Chosen Speaker.
 Washington. Nov. 19. = Ex-Speaker Reed and future Speaker Thomas B. Reed of Maine writes that he will be in Washington on the 18th instant. The explanation of MT. Reeds intention of reaching Washington so late is generally accepted as a desire to avoid as long as possible the personal importunities of representatives who are anxious for con- mittee chairmanships. The pressure for these places among the members who were reelected to the next house began last winter. and it is presumed that it has greatly intensified with the near ap- proach of the reassembling of congress-
 The republican caucus will meet in the hall of representatives at 8 o'clock on Saturday evening. the 30th instant.

 Messrs. Mcdowell of Pennsylvania and Glenn of New York are making the fight for clerk and doorkeeper respective 1y, and Representative Henderson of H. linois is also contesting for the clerkship. Both Mcdowell and Henderson have opened headquarters and begun a sys- tematic campaign.
 William Tipton of Cleveland, Tenn, is the candidate of the southern republi- cans for doorkeeper.
 Capt. Thomas Mckee of Indiana, who had charge of the house document room in the Fifty-first congress, announces himself as candidate for sergeant-at- arms. During the congressional cam paign of year ago he was assistant sec retary of the national committee.

YALE MEN SMILE.
The Students Tickled at the Victory of Capt
 Thorne,s Eleven Over Orange

Inorne's Eleven Over orange.
 New Haven, Nov. 19.-To say that Yale students are tickled over the result of Saturdays football game with the Or ange Athletic club is putting it mildly. The victory of Captain Thorne's team has put broad smile on the entire uni- versity.
 The students were on the point of de- spair regarding the condition of the team, and the players themselves were greatly worried. Saturdays victory was like a tonic to the players, while to the stu dents it has brought back confidence in the team.
 Yale's splendid brace has been due sole ly to the splendid coaching the team has received during the past week by the little band of royal coachers who came to New Haven to help Captain Thorne out The improvement made by the team un- der their care has been nothing short of wonderful. The cry now is, Defeat Princeton" and every one is satisfied that Yale is going to do 1t. Last Friday it would indeed have been hard to find anyone who would have been willing to wager much on Yale's chances. It Is ex- pected that Heff1efinger, Yale's former guard, will be here this week to assist in the coaching, and that also that Vance Mccormick will return. Ex-Captain Hinkey, Dr. Josh" Hartwell Howard Knapp, "Pa" Corbin, Kid" Wallace, Billy" Rhodes, John Greenway and sev- eral more will also be on hand.

Princeton, N. J., Nov. 19.-Princeton's prospects are beginning to assume a more roseate hue as the cripples improve and one by one return to the ranks. The latest arrivals from the hospital are Hearn, Armstrong, Suter and Cochrane, and it is rumored that Lea and Baird will be in condition to play before the Yale game. Should such be the case the personnel of the team will be identical with that which lined up against Har- yard, with the exception of Kelly at left half back in place of Armstrong.
 The men will line up in the remaining few practice games against second eleven composed largely of stars of former Princeton teams. and some lively games will be seen till Thursday. when the men will be given a rest until Satur- day. "Phir' King, "House" Janeway, Beef" Wheeler, Johnny" Poe and Parke Davis have signified their inten- ton of reinforcing the scrub and will ar rive tomorrow.
 Captain Lea states that the men were surprised at Yale's sharp game yester- day but their confidence was not shaken a particle and a spirit of determination was evinced at the club house. today which has not been equaied in recent years.

That Depot Story,

The Advertiser this morning contains another wild story about 1t being a fact that Montgomery is to have right away handsome new union depot. The facts and all the facts briefly stated are these:
 Last month the board of aldermen ap- pointed a committee to look into the mat ter of new depot for Montgomery. The committee wrote President Smith of the Louisville and Nashville, asking his CO., operation or something of that sort. MT. Smith wrote them t6 call on Colonel Falkner, the head of the company's law department in Alabama. They called and Colonel Falkner advised them to con- fer with the authorities of the other roads, looking to conference in the mat ter, and that is all there is to 1t. None of the roads appear to have committed themselves in any way. It is sincerely hoped that the depot will be built. It is needed badly enough and the council committee are making an industrious. and, 1t is devoutly hoped, a satisfactory start towards getting it.
