AmerIcanized by Accident.

AS short a time as it takes to reiuve-
nate a soiled shirt did it take to Ameri-
canize All Sim. says the Cleveland Plain
Dealer. In one brief, fitting moment he
was transformed from a subject of the
Flowery Kingdom to the everyday ap-
pearance of a sure enough" American.
Early Saturday morning All was in his
laundry prepared to do a big days wash
as most of his customers go TO church
on Sunday and needed their laundry to
make that possible: All had starched the
shirts, collars, cuffs and other articles
on Friday night, and nothing remained
for him to do but wet and iron them
out. Going to the hydrant, he took several
limitations OF water Returning to the
laundry, he used his mouth for a sprink-
ling can in dampening the clothing. He
was able to blow a beautiful spray. and
1t fell in beautiful rainbow shades on
the ironing board. Then he discovered
that his irons were too hot and start
ed for the gasoline stove to start a.
fire. He filled the little cups below the
burners with gasoline and applied a
match.
The next moment the air was filed with
the sound of an explosion, large flames
and Celestial swear words. He iumped
about on one foot and yelled Ike a mad
man, as the flames burned his hands and
face. Then he rubbed his hand on the
top OF his head. The next moment a
wonderful change was wrought in the
expression of his face Had he lost his
entire family in tidal wave he could
not nave presented more woebegone
appearance. He had made a startling dis
covery. His queue was gone.
Cropping about on the floor, he found all
that was left of his poor little queue. 1t
had been burned off close to his head and
dropped like a wriggling reptile to the
floor. Then did All break out afresh in
his cries and lamentations. for without
his queue he is not a Celestial.
The fire department finally arrived and
eXtinguiShed the flames with little loss

"lhe proposition made by Noffsinger
was that if Pomeroy would withdraw
from the race, he (Noifsinger) would see
to it that he should have tho republican
nomination for governor four years

he had better offer, VIZ. that Pete

Lawrence Nj. McDonren, the candi-
date for county clerk and recorder wae
born in Chicago Sept. !. 1861. He re-
ceived his education in the public schools
OF that city. ~ an early age Mr.. Nc
Donnell commenced raiiroading, entering
the service of the Michigan Central as a
messenger boy, and by ability and faith
full service working his way up the lad
der of promotion till he occupied re
sponslble position in the local freight
department as assistant to the chief lie
was afterwsrd assistant cashier in the
Chicago Office of the Wabash road. The
fact that he remained in the continuous
service of these two roads for Is years
shows conclusively that his character
and ability we're appreciated by his en-
ployers. In 1890 Mr.. Mcdonnell got the
western fever and arrived in Great Falls
in March Of that year. Shortly after
ward he entered the service OF the Great
Northern railroad in the local freight
department and was speedily promoted
to the posltion OF ticket agent at this
office Il position which he held unlil
about two years ago, whsn he entered
the politica! field as candidate for
county clerk and recorder, receiving both
democratic and popui1L nominations
This year he is not quite so fortunate in
the matter OF nominations. as HIS name
will appear only on the populist ticket,
bat ths splendid record he has made az
a county official and his personal popu-
larty among all classes Of citizens is
pretty sure t. bring him another term Of
office.

A REPUBLICAN SPLIT.
Two of the County Commissioners Come

Two of the County Commissioners Come
Together Over County Contract.
The county commissioners had lively
session Friday afternoon and the pro.
ceedings we're of character to cause the
dove of harmony to fly squawking from
the county building and make breach
in the republican party that will not
soon be healed. 1t was all over the con.
tract for the county printing, which was
before the board. Last year THE TR1B
uNE was invited to BID for this contract,
along with the other papers, and on
opening the sealed bids The TRIBUNE
bid was found to be far the lowest made.
Chairman Ellis, who had invited the bid
or IHE TRIBUNE under the assurance
that the lowest bid would got the con-
tract, went back on his promise and
joined with the other republican mem-
Der IN awarding the printing to the
Leader, which had bid the highest. This
year, for reasons satisfactory to himself,
no doubt, he was opposed to calling for
bids at all, but this question beng d.
cided against him, two bids were called
for and submitted by the two daily pa
pers. lt was during the consideration
of these bids that Mr.. Ellis made some
remarks to the effect that Dickey knew
what the bids were in advance. Dickey
resented the inainuation and on its repeti.
ton called Ellis liar. Ellis responded by
calling Dickey s-of-u,b, and the IN
etant response Of Dickey was blow in
the face of his accuser Then
followed a lively fight, during
which both men were tumbling
on the floor Judge Tallant and Audi
tor Beachly, after several times trying to
separate the men, fled from tho room
and left them to fight it out, Commis
e'oner Andy Hay sat ut the table and
calmly refereed the fight, finally award
ing it to Diosey on foul, but al the
same time expressing HE poor opinion
of both the pugilists by remarking that
no thought he could whip them both.
Then things quieted down. although
Commissioner Dlckey seemed occasion
ally TO thirst for more gore. 1t 10 said
now that there are at least two republic
an politicians who can besdescribcd as
sore heads in every eGnse of the word.
