HELENA. Mon, Jan. 80. :. The 18th
senatorial ballot resulted in the election
of the Butte Democratic candidate,
William A. Clark, who received 81: of
the SO votes cast. Twelve of the six
teen Republicans voted for Clark. =
Before the result was announced Rep
resentative D. Mats, leader of the anti
Clark forces, declared he had evidence
that certain members who voted for Mr..
Clark had been bought; that this evil
dence was in addition to that already
submitted to the investigating com
mittee, and that Mr.. Clark would never
he seated at Washington. There is no
doubt that charges Of bribery will be
preferred when Mr.. Clark presents his
credentials to the senate. The Clark
men, however, treat the Mats charges
lightly, and say they court as full an
investigation as can be made. 81

Scandal in the C,Iifcrnia Senatorial Con-
ssEEs W. testsls hseialiy Disclosed.
d, SACRAMENTO, .ial., Jan. 2S. The spe-
cial committee appointed toinvesti gate
f the scandals connected with the cleo
tion:of Y the United States senator has
fled its report. The committee finds
that Howard E. Wright, speaker of the
assembly, received from o. s.. Grant,
:Jr., through his political manager, Mil.
ton Green $500 as a gift and $3.50 as
loan; that Wright, prior to his election,
deceived John ID. Spreckles and, ". S.
Leake to secure their supportzfor the
speakership, and that Iby promising to
vote for Robert N. xBulla for United
States. senator he secured Bulla's sup
port for the speakership.
The report further states that Milton

credited agent Of U S. Grant, IT. ex-
pended s::rEsse Sums Of money, ex' ling
in the L; 70: fece:;;te $4,000, but til. >xact
amount Of which is. to the co1ll1liJtec
unknown. to secure the election of a
Republican, legislature. The commit
tee of investigation recommends:
Punishment Left to the Assembly.
First-That the conduct Of Howard
E. Wright, speaker of the assembly, as
above set forth, be held to be reprehen-
sible in an extreme degree, and that no
mere censure on the part of the as
sembly can meet the rqahaiEements Of
justice, but the mattdsso 81 = adequate
punishment be left entirefytf1l the as
senbly without recommendation from
the committee. a..
| Second-That the expenditure OF
large sums of money in aid of the candi.
dacy of Omitted States senator in the
manner above set forth is wrong and
reprehensible in that. it is calculated to
corrupt morals, to debauch the political
system, to deter poor men of ability
from entering upon senatorial cam
paign and to give to the rich an unwar-
ranted and unjustifable advantage over
men of equal ability and Qualifications
but of limited means. -.
That the receiving of NOM: y. net 'gis-
lative candidates from probable s4 ss;sr
torial Candidates, either directly or in
directly. in aid of their own candidacy,
is reprehensible for the same reasons.
SACRAMENTO, Cal, Jan. 31.-When
the assembly had been called to order
Speaker Wright rendered his resigna-
ton as speaker of the house. The resig-
nation was accepted and Alden Ander-
son, speaker pro TEN, was elected speak
or in Wright's place.

THE VALUE OF SILENCE.

THE VALUE OF SILENCE.
An ambitious iackass. one bright sum-
mel day
Was munching sweet thiS,lcs and sue
culent hay
And gave vent to delight in Il re-
sounding pray
That echoed and echoed and echoed
away.
Then suddenly silent, he brushed Il hot
From his eye, and lamentcd: "Oh, dear,
and Oh, dear.
SO sensitive |. for the people. l fear
From my voice, must all know I've no
musical ear"
A crow, phnosophic. pcrchcd high on
Il limb
In judicial accents thus spake down to
him:
"kinl sir. This advice as a friend, l
would bring:
lf YOU keep your mouth shut they
wont know you can't sing"
The moral of this is exceedingly plain
AS %perchance you will note if you read

\ DECISION

\ DECISION REVERSED.
When Butler sailed he said to Joe:
II have decided thus and So"
And then he did elaborate
And cOgitate and ruminate
And ever recapitulate
Just how he'd end the puny war
And crush to earth each fighting Boer,
Whenever he and they collided.
"For this" said Butler, i've decided
And that's the reason Butler wrote
10 Joe SO brief and curt Il note.
rOr after all he had decided
TO do when he and they collided.
Twas quite enough to tell the worst
To Joe. to wire: ''I've been reversed"

WINTER AND SUMMER.

Snow on the hilltops, drear and bleak,
Snow in the wales. where the shrill
winds speak
In mournful tones; but deep and deep
Down, down, beneath. the flowers
sleep.
Green are the L.lltops. fresh and fair,
Sweet is the breath of the scented
air.
Loosed the chains Of the ice locked
lake,
And the sad earth smiles and the
flowers wake.
Snow on the heart that is riven and
bleak.
Snow on the heart where voices speak,
Voices of grief that is deep and deep.
Yet still in the heart the flowers sleep.
y whisper Of Hope on the scented air.
Flown is the snow and the bleak heart
fair.
Dull Grief's grim letters break and
break,
And the SAD heart smiles and the
flowers wake.
