An Interesting Question is Raised
In ChOteau County.

Jos. Sterling is in from Teton station
today to try to have his saloon license
renewed. AIR. Sterling has been running
a saloon at Teton, where there is a post
office; coal chutes, ETC., for six months
past. but when he came to take a license
for the next six monthsit was refused by
the authorities'in consequence of d gen
eral protest by the railroad contractors
on the ground that the law prohibited
saloons within two miles of railroad CON

that Teton is an established settlement;
that by the county road it is over two
miles to the nearest construction camp
and that he has a right to a license. The
matter is not yet settled.-River Press

Call from Cub. FOR Rev. Robert Mclean.

Kew. Robert Mclean. pastor OF the
Third Presbyterian Church OF this city,
has received call TO take charge Of the
Spanish work under the Presbyterian
Board in the Island OF Cuba.
This call has been under consideration
for three months. In speaking Of the
matter this morning, Rev. Mr.. Mclean
said: ''i did not wish to leave the work
here, but the fact is no one with a
knowledge Of the language and expert
ence in the foreign work could be
secured it seemed a call Of duty. Yet
| would not consent to accept the ap-
pointment, unless they would give me
sufficient time to put my work here in
such shape that it could be passed
over to my successor without injury
This decision | communicated ~ the
secretary Of the board in New York, aud
Tuesday Of this week 1 received tele-
gram, stating that my terms were satis-
factory. The wish Of the board is that
| shall be on the field by the lst Of
January. The intention is to make
Havana tie basis Of operations extend.
ing the work as rapidly as possible to
the principal points in the island"
Rev..A clean further stated that the
decision now rests with the Presbytery.
That body must decide where duty lies.
He will soon request the church to join
with him in asking the Presbytery to
dissolve the pastoral relations in order
that he may enter upon HE new field Of
labor.
Rev Mclean took charge oi the work in
Portland little less than two years ago.
He is one Of the most earnest workers
in the Presbyterian Church. and is
recongnized by all as man Of unusually
iorceiul character. Not only the mem
bers of his own congregation, but hun
dreds Of others TO whom he has endeared
himself will be saddened 10 hear Of the
oall.-Telegram.
Rev Robt. Mclean, who was for 10
years pastor OF Bethany Presbyterian
church, Of this place, is man emf
nently fitted for this place to which he
has been called, as he is good Spanish
scholar and has had previous experience
in the same line Of work in Chile, where
he spent number Of wears until the
breaking down Of his health. Mrs.
Mclean is also conyersant with the
Spanish language and she will be .
great help in the work.

'"The republican managers will buy
every vote that can be bought. They
will coerce every vote that can be
coerced. They will intimidate every
laboring man who can be intimidated.
The will bribe every election judge who
can be bribed. They will corrupt every
count that can be corrupted"
Such words as the above, which were
spoken by Bryan in speech at Salem,
Mass, might have been expected from

but our people are not accustomed TO
hear the like from a candidate for
