The Prohibition Vote,

Democrats may be able to find some
consolation for the decline in their
vote last fall in the fact that the pro-
hibitionists kept them company. The
democrats lost altogether in the United
States $4,000 votes from their total in
1892, while the populists gained 160.-
600 and the republicans remained
about the same. The prohibition
party lost 5000 votes in New York:
5000 in OHIO; 1000 in Michigan: 1000
In Minnesota; 5000 in Illinois; 1000 in
Pennsylvania; 1000 in Wisconsin,; 1000
In Indiana. In Iowa on the other
hand the prohibition vote increased
$4,000; in Maryland it increased 1000:
IN Massachusetts 1000; in Colorado
$500; in Virginia 4, 100; in Kansas 500.
The total vote of the prohibition party
was less than in 1892, and this is the
first year in the history of the party
that there has been a decline in its
total vote.
Whether because the prohibition
party is declining or because it has not
leaped to the front so rapidly as was
expected, call has been issued for a
new party to be formed in Pittsburr
March II. It's object is declared to be
the abolition of the liquor traffic.

Mr.. McCabe Finds Trouble in the Car
Load Lots These Days

Joseph McCabe reported to the police
yesterday that his wife had been robbed
OF $3.50. He said that Mrs. McCabe had
the money IN purse beneath her pillow
and BURGLARS entered the room in the
Denver block whom she was sleeping and
took the money without waking her.
McCabe is, or was, tho proprietor of the
Silver Dollar saloon on Park avenue until
last night when Deputy Sheriff Brennan
seized the place on an attachment levied
by w. A. Bower for S25. Misfortunes do
not come singly to McCabe. He has
recently opened new saloon on Oak
street.
He states that the door of the bedroom
was unlocked with key. He is on night
shift and says that the loss of the money
was not discovered until ne returned from
work yesterday morning.

THE BEST IN THE NoRrHwEsr
SUNDAY. JANUARY 10. 1895.
In Mr.. CAREERS Case.

Between oaths and personal prefer
ances and talk of Doodle and party in
terests, several of the members of the
legislature are finding themselves in a
box. it is said to be certain that sew
eral 4. p. A men voted for Carter in
Fridays caucus. What persuaded
them to this course, We do not under
take to guess.
1t is also certain, however, that some
of the a. p. A. people in Butte are
not yet persuaded that it was all
right to vote for Carter. 1t looks to
us, taking account of all the surround
ings of the case, that Mr.. Carter has
his nomination all pat enough, but
if the case is pressed little the public
may have an opportunity to see how
men act when it is put to them either to
obey the word of honor given in a po-
litical caucus or be bound by what we
are given TO understand is the solemn
oath of secret society
1t is insisted that Mr.. Carter can
not be elected without A. p. A. votes:
and we fancy he will get them. In
deed, it would not surprise us to find
that, by next Tuesday, some of the
a. L. a. men in Butte who object TO
Friday nights action will conclude to
be reconciled to it. In this we may be
mistaken. If we are, then everybody
may look out for lively doings in
Helena this week.
If matter of principle and of real
patriotism is at stake, the present is
always a good time TO test it; but we
are not looking for anything of the
sort.

SINGULAR ACCIDENT,
John $. Dougherty's Little Child Injured
Mysterlously


curious accident befel the 1s-months-
old son of John S. Dougherty yesterday
afternoon about o'clock. While playing
about the floor the little one fell and it is
thought ran n needle into his abdomen.
DIR. Snyder and DIR. Mckenzie were sum-
moned and from examination were I'M
able TO find the needle.
1t was decided then to perform an oper-
alton and the child was placed under the
influence of chloroform. An incision was
made without piercing the abdominal
cavity, but still no trace of the needle
couId be found, nor any evidence that it
mad entered the little fellows body. The
lnclsion was therefore sewed up and
iurther developments awaited with some
anxiety.
Last evening he had recovered from the
enects OF the operation and was at play
around the house. 1t is therefore hoped
that the needle did not penetrate far
enough to cause serious consequences.

Bearers OF Idle Tales.

1t entertains some of the newspa;
pers OF the state to warn their readers
against dangers that do not thr eaten.
The Helena clique in Miss oula, for
instance, is seeking to make it appear
that Anaconda has designs on the
state university. There isn't a word
OF truth in 1t, nor is there any warrant
for the idle gossip.
Dozens of times, however, within
two years the STANDARD has urged the
people of Missoula TO honor the award
made by the state and do something
FOR the university. A small company
Oh gentlemen gave tract of land for
site; otherwise, not thing has been
done Meetings have been held at in
tervals for the discussion of plans that
have ended in smoke. At one time il
was proposed TO hire rooms in a public
building and start a school, but the
public in Missoula wouldn't even sub
scribe the money to pay the rent.
The latest plan is to secure space in
school building and make a start. IL
Will cost, as we hear, three thousand
dollars to fit up the place, and an cleo
ton is soon to be held in order to de-
eide whether a special tax shall be
levied for that petty sum. Then it is
proposed to ask of the legislature an
appropriation for current expenses.
The present cash endowment of the
university, accruing from the sale of
lands, is $4,000, of which only the in
come can be used.
III seems fair TO say that. within
ninety days after the university was
awarded 10 Missoula, that city should
have made a free-will Offering of at
least a quarter of a million dollars
toward the immediate endowment of
the school; the possession of it ought
TO be worth that much, if il is worth
anything. In this view of the case
the STANDARD lately said: 1--WE think
as the result of two years experience,
that Missoula has not earned the
honors OF the university" That
opinion we believe to be we'll war.
