make the public believe that in the
papers taken we're Glow insinuatins
of a money bargain for the appoint

stock exchange, F" etc.
The statement repeats the vatican's
original denunciation of the tactics
employd in securing the papers and
especially denounced what it terms
efforts to make it appear as due to the
negotiations of the vatican of Mon
sigDot Montasgnini. Some of the
letters it says really may have been
received and kept as documents, but
which no honest man could take as q
basis for facts that did not exist.
Such letters, it is declared, may even
have been sent on purpose TO Monsig-
nor MOntagnini in order TO have a
dussier ready when the search was
made.

As STANDPOINT
SEES CONTEST
county Division Jugglery Cause OF
Wells Fight

bring about the defeat Of the county
division measure.
Mr.. Hoffman can have the bill
passed through the house by his four
members in that body and then by
prolonging the senatorial contest he
can prevent MIR. McClear from TAX
ing his seat ana from passing the
county division bill through the SEN
ate, and when the legislature finally
adjourns he will come back to the
people and claim that if the people
had only elected straight republic
can legislative ticket that they would
have cotton county division.
This is the way the matter looks to
the News, for the simple reason that
we can see no valid reason for the
We'll contest unless it is
tc defeat county division. and
we can not STE where Mr. Hoffman
or Mr.. We'll are to gain anything By
flying in the face of the WIN of the
people and throwing Mr.. Nc lear out
and seating Ignatz Well, liter the
peolpe haze said by their gote that
they desire MIR. McClear to represent
them in the state senate.
Another move Oh tne part Of Mr..
Hoffman looks rather suspicious to
the News and that is the fact that he
has insisted that S. ID. Taylor of Bon.
ners Ferry should introduce the divi
sion bill, and is not in favor of bill
satisfactory to all of the Legislature
in which all shall share equally any
honOrs in relation to the passage Of
the same. Then on top of this comes
the announcement from Rathdrun
that T ,ylor is a candidate for the
speakership OF the house of represent
atives, which as is we'll known by
everyone would embaFrass his mos
honest and sincere efforts in attempt
ing to secure the passage of count!
division bill.
/ Inasmuch as there is no possibili
ty of Mr.. Taylor securing the speak
ership his candidacy was evidently
launched by Mr.. Hoffman for some
purpose. All these things bear the
ear marks of suspicion that Mr.. Heit
man is not as strongly in favor of coun
ty division as he claimed to be priol
to the election and suggest a colored
gentleman in the wood pile some
/ where.

The News has been waiting for

'nstituting the contest for Ignatz
Neil against Hon. }. L. McClear
fter Mr.. McClear had been elected
tate senator by a plurality Of 50
kotes, but as yet none Of the Hoffman
apers has given any explanation or

There are none of the most ardent of

knowledge that Mr.. McClear has re
Reived the majority of votes cast in
