At noon of Monday (Jan. 2d, 1593) quite a number of the friends of Hon. John M. Greer and District Attorney McJunkin, assembled in tho Prothonotary's office to gee them sworn into office. Judge Hazen was present, and administered the oatb, first to Mr. Greer ami then to Mr. McJnn . kin in a dignified and propeT manner; and * then everybody congratulated the smiling and happy gentlemen who h.id reached the goals ot their ambitions. Judge Greer is so well known through out the di»trictfor his affability and conrte ousness, as well as legal attainments, that we deem it unnecessary to add anything to our« hearty congratulations and best Irishes for a full and honorable term of the high office he holds. kt. C. F. L. McQnistion was sworn in by Prothonotary Brown that afternoon. Triß Andrews Hiirby election contest in Crawford county promi«c» to be somewhat of a boomerang affair for Andrews the contestant, at least it starts out that way. The ballot boxes in the four wards or Meadville and of a township were epened in eoTJrt. In these five districts it was alleged that there were 40 irregular votes polled, an.l on examination it was found that 32 of these were for Andrews and 8 for Bigby. The ballot boxes of nearly every district in the county are at the Sheriff's office, and the ba lots of all persons claimed to have voted contrary to law will be inspect ed. to see for whom they voted. It is thought there will be some interesting developments when the Titusville boxes, where Andrews had nearly all the votes, are opened, as in one of the wards there every man on the registration list was counted, althrougb the assessor had mark ed several "Gone."—Sharon Herald. Needed Postal Reforms. Among the commemorations of Columbus year there is to bo a n«w issue of postage stamps with artistic designs appropriate to the occasion. It is well that tbe iesthelic sentiment should be cultivated, even in such an ordinary things as a postage stamp. But a more beneficial outcome of the World's Fair congress would be tbe adoption of au international postage stamp, to be sold by every country tbroughomt the Postal Union and receivable for letters and packages in all parts of the allied service. Another must urgently needed reform is the introduction of more rapid delivery than that which our railways afford, espe cially in conuei tion with large cities. En rope is ahead of us in this respect. Letter dropped in tho Paris Post Office are deliv ered in Berlin, seven hundred and tittj miles distant, in an hour and a half b) of pneumatic tubes. A beginning is proposed here, between New York ami Brooklyn,which certainly deserves success If it proves practical the governmeni should take up the matter aud extend to all parts of the United States a pneumatic tube system, to be the property of the Post Office and to be operated exclusively by that department.—New York Hrruld. SPEAKING of "old-timers" in the legisla ture, Hon. Geo V. Lawrence of Mononga hela City, said: "When I was first asked last fall to run for the Legislature," Mr. Lawrence continued, "I refused, but consented when I understood tha' Bnckalew and ex-Senator Wallace would return. I was under the impression it would bo an old-time House, and I thought I would like to go back. But Buckalew and Wallace won't be there, and I am dis apointed. I served with Bnckalew in the Constitutional convention, and I always considered him the ablest Democrat in the State. He was so modest aud such a gen tleman. I remember ho was very kind to me, and our dfference in politics had noth ing to do with our social relations. Mor ton McMicbel, of Philadelphia, sat with me iu the constitutional convention, and, after we bad been at work for several weeks, he said: "Lawrence, I nover beard muqh about Buckalew, but he is a wonder fully brilliant maa.' His estimate was cor rect. "Buckalew, like Judge Jere Black, was very careless about his dress. I remember one day I was walking down Chestnut «t , in Philadelphia, with bim Bis coat was badly torn, and ho stepped into a tailor ghop to have it repaired. Tho tailor told .him to come back in a few hours and gave him a white duster to wear in the mean time. Unmindful of his appearance, Buck alew worked iu tbe convention all after noon. The members laughed a good deal about his duster, for it was out ol season, but it never dawned upon him that he looked ridiculous." CfcßUic Vooruukh of the House at Har risburg, caught sheol for his action iu the Andrews-Higby matter Tuesday. A doz en members look him to tasic atler ad journment. Restriction of Immigration. The sentiment of restricting immigra tion or prohibiting it for a time altogether, is gaining ground iu this country among all classes. It is clear thut the United States has been tbe favorite dumping ground of Europe. Here she has seut her vicious, poor and improvident clauses. From all countries in Europe they come, until we have as many as we can absorb, without introducing disturbing elemeuts in to society. Of course the United States is composed largely of citizens of foreig l : blood. The average citizen here is a mix ture of two or three races. You can hardly find ono who cannot trace his lineage lo German, French, English or Irish extrac tion. It is common to hear one say: "Well ( I am partly Irish, French or Ger man." There are no pure blooded people here, exoept among tbe original immi grants. Americans are a mixture of all It is not from any pride in blood that the sentiment against immigration exists It in rath(i£ because the country is being flooded with the worst classes of the Eur opean nations and theso persons, when they got here, enter into competition with the American laborers and create a strug gle for wages, which is becoming too fierce to bo restrained within peaceable limits Tbesa ignorant men are not seeking free dom, are not animated by the spirit of our institutions, yet they are made American citizens aud clothed with all the rights of American freemen. They vote, they ming le with the people, they compete with American labor, and this sharp competition is what makes the future uncertain. Much might be said as to the political danger springing from this ignorant class, but tbo demand for restriction seems now to rest on tbo necessity of protecting Amer ican laborers against unfair and ruinous Competition. Ttie restriction which the country will approve is such as will give protection to wages, as prices in manufac tured goods are protected b> a tariff. Iu other words it Is the application of tbe Re publican principle 01 protection to iiumi giation. There is reason iu all things, and restriction or regulation of ibis matter should be moderate. There is always a golden mean and Hint should he sought out and adopted.— Ex. ox 2 of the large ocean steamers arrived in New Y- rk.

Meeting of the Legislature. The greater number of the legislators of the state reached Harrisburg during the latter part of last week. There were several aspirants for the Speakership of the House.butata meeting. Saturday evening, all withdrew excepting Thompson of Warren county and Walton of Philadelphia. It was expected that Thompson would win and that the officers of the House would be: Speaker. C. C. Thompson; chief clerk. Charles Vorhees; reading clerk, J. B. Rex; journal clerk, un known; resident clerk, J. D. Patterson, and of the Senate: President pro tem.,Gen. .T. P. S. Gobin; chief clerk, E. W. Smiley; reading clerk, J. 11. Carson; journal clerk, in doubt. At the caucus of the Republican mem bers of the House that evening Mr. Wal ton withdrew,and Mr. Thompson was nomi nated for Speaker by acclamation, and Mr. Vorhees got the Chief Clerkship in some manner. The caucus of State Senators continued Gen. Gobin as President pro. tem., E. W. Smiley of Franklin as Chief Clerk; .las. L. Brown of Philadelphia as Journal Clerk; Jas. M. Carson of Butler as reading Cierk; and approved of the other appointments made by its State Committee. The chief topic of conversation that evening was the Andrews —Higby contest. Mr Andrews was in town with Gen. Reed er, chairman of the state committee. He has with him a certificate for the seat from the Court of Crawford county and a dupli cate of said certificate has been harried here and filed with Mr. Harrity in the ol fice of the secretary of the commonwealth. Mr. Higby is here also, having with him a certificate from the election board, as signing to him the seat which Mr. Andrews also claims. Chairman Reeder made this statement oftheca-e: Mr. Andrews will present as bis credentials to the resident clerk of the house a certificate from the CourtofCraw ford county. A duplicate of this certifi cats, Gen. Reeder says, has been filed with the secretary of state. There can be no appeal from the county court except to the house, according to the decision of the supreme court in the O'Neil contested election case. The court in that case waived jurisdiction on the ground the bouse was the final resort,and the supreme court being a court of final resort could not act in any case where there was a higher tribunal of the state. Senator Jesse M. Baker, of the ballot tame, when asked what would be done with the voting system during the coming session he said. "The law will not be re pealed It has given general satisfaction, and when a few slight changes are made the I ant reasonable objection will be met One amendment which I have will reduce the size of the ballot one-balf. It will pro vide for omitting the residence of each candidate after bis name. The residence can be certified to the Secretary of the Commonwealth for purposes of identifica tion. but they are unnecessary on the ticket. lam not in favor of abolishing the 'group'feature. It requires a little ra.>re tare on the part of the voter, but that is s eood requirement to have. Nearly all ol the outcry against the new system ba disappeared, aud I look for it to become recognized as an excellent and permauem institution. On Tuesday, the Legislature mot. The Senate was soon organized and ii working order, and during the day a nam her of bills were presented, among then' one by Senator Henninger, provided tha' ihe license fees for wholesalers, bottlers aud brewers shall £o to the city, borough or township wherein the license is granted, and one by Senator Penrose, amending th< mercantile tax law so as to exempt from taxation all merchants whose sales are nnder $3 000 annually, the present limit being SI,OOO. Tl.e House organized by electing tin officers named above, the vote on Speaker oeing: Thompson 135, Riter 09. The roll call was then begun, and when Clerk Voorbees reached Crawford otunty he an nounced that he had received a certificate from the Court of that county which would be read. This was objected to, an angrv discussion followed, the certificate wa read, Andrews' name was placed on tbi- | list, and at the end of the roll call both he and Higby were sworn into office. Secretary Harrity then appeared and with an emphasis that, in view of the action of the House, seemed to impress the majority with a sense of deep guilt, an uounced that he had the honor to present a certificate from the Court of Crawford county, which had been filed in his office, as required by law and which is now filer with the Speaker, as required by law The Republicans bore Mr. Harrity'Bimplied rebuke with calm resignation, aud an ad journrnent was bad until 3 o'clock. When both branches met after dinner. | Private Secretary H. I). Tate presented Hie Governor's message, which was read. There was little pretense of listening to it aud it occasioned absolutely no comment , except as to its length, one member quot ing Benjamin F. Butler's remark about John A. Bingham's speech at theimpeach merit of President Johnson, that "In ordei to make it immortal he hail made it eter nal." As soon as it was ended in the House. Mr Wherry started the row over the An drews matier by offering a resolution set ting forth that Wilbnr P Higliy had been giveu a certificate of election to the House which bad been forwarded to the Clerk, but not read; that, in con»eniicnce thereof his name was not on the rolls, and thai the clerk be directed to place his name thereon and furnish him with a seat. Ex-Speaker Boy er raised a point of order against the preseutation of the resolution, hu' by general agreement dfbate WHS per mitted. Mr. Boyer argued that, upon presentation of the court's certificate, the House must do as it had done and that Higby must now contest: John Cessna made a strong speech in favor of the resolution, asserting that the Clerk had no certificate from the court, which he had a legal right trf*receive. Hig by had been a member of the House since December 1. His title was as good as Cessna's own, aud when the Clerk accepted from any quarter auy certificate except that sent to the Secretary of the Common wealth ho had violated the law. This was a question of right aud justice, and be ap pealed the magnanimity of the majori ty not to violate the Constitution aud the law for a mere trivial triumph. Mr. Cotton, of Allegheny, seconded Mr Cessna's plea, while Messrs Boyer,Walton aud Bytle opposed them and \V~berry,Skiu ; ner and Fow presented the Democratic ar guments Finally the resolution wus sent to it special Committee by a Vote of 117 to 75, Cessua, Col ton,ex-Speaker Hew lit, of Blair; Rilter. of Philadelphia; Jet frey, ot Luzerne; Kennedy, of Schuylkill, and Moore, of Chester, Republicans voting with the Democrats. Mr. Cessna was vigorous in his denuncia tion of the action of the House, while ex- , Speaker Hewitt characterizes it as "mon strous." Several other leading Republi- , cans think that a mistake was made They do not object lo the seating of Andrews hut hold that Higb; should hare been seat ed aud then on the receipt of the certifis cate from the court by the Speaker, as the ' act of 1874 provides, be should have bee> at ouco unsealed and Mr Audrews sworn in Should Higby contest as be likely will, a great many Republicans will be , placed iu a somewhat awkward position, a there is scarcely a county in the State in ( which townships do uot vote iu boroughs, which votes, according to Judge Bender son's decision, are illegal. Wilson, of Ad ams, one of the lew Republicans ever sent ( from tbe county, owes his election to votes cast in that way. Secretary Harrity was very much exer- ' ci <ed over the action of the Republicans in seating Andrews, and said that Clerk Voorbees -'had no more rignt to place his , name on the roll hy virtue of a certificate from ibo Crawford County Court, than ho would have bad on a certified copy of the * ten Commandments." A concurrent resolution was adopted adjourning until Thursday, January 12, \ at4p in It had been intended to adjourn until.!anuary 16, hot it was discovered 1 that the law requires that both Houses j shall certify to each other the names of all persons nominated for United Stales Sena- J tor at least two days before the meeting of y the joint convention. Consequently, the Kupublican caucus, which was fixed to meet January 17, the day for the election ( of a Senator, must bo held sooner, and will probably meet on the proceeding Thursday evening. the ouvkrsok's vmuoc. Gov. Patti-.on* message to the leg is] a- (^ tare ii quite a leugthy document, covering a great variety of questions. In discussing the Homestead troubles he says: "Armed bodies claiming the right to redress the ; wrong'of ihe employe and protect the rights of the employer confronted each other in hostile array, resulting in riot, bloodshed and murder " After comment ing on the efficiency of the national guard in restoring and preserving order he says: "The cost in this trouble will cot bo con sidered if it be followed by greater love of liberty, obedience to law and support of the public authorities, for in this we have a sure guarantee ot tbe pertuauance of our republic." The finances of the State are in a most gratifying condition, notwithstanding the unusually large expenditures for common schools, for the suppression of the lawless ness at Homestead, and for other purpos es. He again recommends a more equal distribution of the burdens of taxation, the farm lands being in special need of relief. To this end he would collect the entire cost of the state government from corpora lions a< d from ccliaterate inheritances.ar.J would turn into tbe county treasuries tbe receipts from other forms of personal prop erty to the end that real estate therein might be proportinately relieved of tai burdens. Among other recommendations which the message contains are the abolition of the merchantile rax: changes in the bank ing law of 1891; legislation to enlorce art lcles 16 and 17 of tie Constitution, to guard against such flserant abiMes a< the anthracite coal combination; to prohibit the exercise by the commonwealth of the right to stand jurors a«ide; revision and amendment of the Bat ef ballot law; re aportionment under the last census; the choice ol presidential electors by repre sentative districts; free text books for the common schools; the pas-age of bill (defeated at last session) for tbe health and safcy of persons employed in bituminous coal-mines, and regulation for the con struction of dams so as to guard against such calamities as those at Johnstown, Ti tusviile and Oil City. In regard to a remedy for strikes, riots and insurrections the governor calls atteu lion to the fact that there is uow upon the statute book of the state as ju«t an arbitra tion law as conld be framed, and under which the whole differences al Homestead might have been adjusted peaceably Tnis teaet-es that legal arbitration is futile What then it tbe remeJyT The govenor snggests it is to lie found iu greater devo tion to our laws and institutions, accom panied by a patriotic spirit, without which oar laws are in vain. There can be no in termediate pow-r between the local con stabulary and tbj military for the suppres sion of lawlessness, and legislation is rec ommended forbidding the introduction of armed bodies of men without the consent ot the count}' or state. He also recom mends that severer penalties be imposed for interference with individual rights of person or propertv, either by threats, in timidation or violence, open or covert. These recommendations arc all dtserv ing of the seriouß consideration of the leg islature. It is not expectiug too much at the hands of the law making body that they will not only be discussed but acted upon in a fair, impartial and patriotic manner? —All persons interested in the Hospital are requested to meet in the M. E. Church next Tuesday evening. Briggs was Acquitted. After a trial lasting 30daysProf. Charles A. Brigtfs was acquitted at New York, last Friday afternoon upon every oue of the cnarges of heresy brought against him by tbe Committee of Prosecution. Wnen the members of the Ecclesiastical Court filed out the Old Scotch Presbyterian Church in Fourteenth street a few minutes before <> o'clock to night, the jubilant and radiant faces of Prof. Briggs' partuans told the whole story. "Prof Briggs has been acquitted," said one of them to the reporters who had been waiting outside tbe closed doors, "and he isn't a heretic, after all." President Hastings and the faculty of the Union Theological Seminary were espe cially pleased with the verdict, which was of such importance to their institution. It seems that in the last few days there Have been seveial unexpected additions to the ranks of the Brigirs forces, but his friends made no boasts and the vote was a great surprise to the opposition. HOW THE SKVBBAL VOTES VARIED. There were 12H and elders who voted on every charge. The strongest vo'e for Prof. Briggs was 73 in his favor and 49 against him, and his weakest showing was on charge 111, where the vote stood 07 in his favor and 01 against him on the princi pal items. Upon his doctrine of sancti tication, charge VI, the vote stood 69 to 57. and on charge 111, accusing tbo pro fessor of leaching tbe errancy of the scrip tures, tbe vote was 07 to 61, the closest vote on any of the charges. The voting began a little before 4 o'clock, and wa.- tiuished in less than two hours I'lie first two hours of the session was de voted to three.minute speiches of those ministers and elders who bad not been reached yesterday. Not more than half availed themselves of the privilege. There were six roll calls on the voting, one for each lor tbe six charges, aad on each roll call members of the court voted first on the specifications and then on the items under each charge. On Saturday Dr. Briggs was yet receiv ing the eongra tulations of his friends over the vote returned in his favor by the court. But be is not at all elated. Ue is almost broken down by the strain of the long trial "I am tirod of it all," he said wearily, "but the case is hy no means near an end. I have no doubt that it will bo appealed. They have no right to appeal direct to the general assembly of the l'reebyterian church at Washington," he said, "and iu ct-e they do I shall certainly protest their action. 1 shall take no action unless the other side does. It is fot them to move first now, and then I can follow." Dr. Briggs stated that he wonld resume his lectures at the Union theological semi uary next Wednesday. Farmers' Institute, Jaiiuaiy 17th.

Tammasy Hall of New York, wants to send Edward Murphy, Jr . a wealthy brew er of Troy, to the United States Senate ! from that etttte, but Cleveland object*. I An Example of Mora! Courage. There are few of us who n yonth escap ed being immensely bored by much praise of moral courage. Commendatory lectures on this subject, next to remark- applaud ing truth. are, perhaps, the most disagree able things that a sinail boy has to face; and when he grows up. he observes that a man can get along very weli in Congress without either alleged desirable quality. It used to be, if we mistake not, that such men as Martin Luther were held up as examples of moral heroism. Later re searches seem to confirm the view that Luther did have a fair amount of this com mendatory virtue. He did very well for his time, but he wouldn't have cut much of a figure on this threshold of the twen tieth century —a conviction regarding the situation which becomes unavoidable since accounts of Mr Howard Watson, ol Fox Lake. Wisconsin,have begun to c«me ia. The people of Wisconsin propose to send Mr. Watson to the World's Fair, and have him mounted in twin grandeur with the largest monolith ever quarried. But let us come to the point without any further throwing about of idle words. We do not need to inform the intelligent student of the Bsdger State that the town of Fox Lake, the home of Mr. Watson, is near Wajpun. nor that at Waupun is situ ated one of the State-prisons The uni form worn in this institution is the usuai one of the black and white endless stripe; indeed, some close observers claim that the Waupun uniform is the stripedest in existence, though it is probably only the I sraadard thing. At any rate, it is striped 1 enough, and a man cotild not wear one and mingle in general society mnch without siMiner or later attracting attention. Now I it • ppears that last October a man named Con ley. feeling that he was not treated with that openness and confidence which h»; liked in Waupum prison, broke out one night and escaped. He made his way under cover of the darkness to Fox Lake Here, as it began to grow light, the in hartroniousness of bis costume with gener al outside nature began to impress itself apon him. and he looked about for a change In passing through the outskirts of town he came to the dwelling of Mr Howard Watson. Observing an open window, the migratory Conley crawled in. Mr Wa'son slept the sleep of the innocent As he thus slumbered, the unconventional Waupun jailbird exchanged clothes with him. and winged his way thence with a lighter heart. In the morning, when the unsuspecting Watson arose and saw the striped costume on the chair where he had left his clotnes the night before, he was at first speechless. Then lie took in the situ ation. and made some clear, ringing re marks. which we do not find it necessary to set down here. He then started for the closet to get his other suit. He paused with his hand on the latcli. Then he turn ed, and said, in a loud voice: "No. I'll not do il. I'll not be buncoed this way I'll wear them clothes that the cutthroat left if it kills me!" He bad nailed his thesis on the church door. He nut on the striped suit, a d found it an excellent fit. Mrs Watson objected, foolishly, iike a woman—a woman has no moral bonrage anyhow—but Mr. Watson put on the suit Mr. Watson's business is that of market gardening. This takes him much about the streets of Fox Lake, as he drives from house to house to dispose of his vegetables On the eventful morning of which we are speaking. Mr. Watson started out with bis |..ad of -'truck,'' as usual. Before nine o'clock he was heard to remark to himself, as he made a vicious cut at his horse with the end of the lines, that he never kuew that dress so much difference before "They don't look at the man no more," be said, as he threw a potato at the patient animal, "but at the clothes he wears." But no thought of a backward step crossed the rigid mind of Howard Watson. He dealt out half-bushels of onions and small measures of carrots with a calm, brow. Small boys and peisonal friends asked foolish questions and made super fluous comments, but he heeded thoin not Before noon he was arrested by searching prison officials and taken over to Waupun He of couse established his innocence, ami got back to Fox Lake in time to finish his vegetable route. His wife made further weak aid feminine remarks when he re turned home, but he remained unmo\ed. From this exciting day to the present time Mr Watson has continued to wear the highly accentuated prison garments. Mrs. Watson reports gloomily to the neigh bors that there is no prospect of their ever wearing out. "There is one thing,though, that 1 will ever do," adds Mrs. Watson, firmly: "I will never cut them clothes down for Willie " Mr. Watson has been am -ted and dragged to Waupun by eager i.ffii-rrs eight tiini*s He has been shot at by luurii zealous officials live times. Over two hundred times he baa had to endure the cheap wit of friends who have asked biiu why be doesn't get the ball and chain which naturally go with the suit But of none ol these things has the heroic Watson complained. Daily bo goes about his work.and does his duty as he see it Some people ibink that tbey detect him wince a little at the stare <■( thestranger in town, especially wt en he is exposed to the some what marked observation ol the British tourist who may happen to be passing through Fox Lake, but we cannot believe this oi bim; Uowsra Watson is not made of ths sort of stuff; we would as quick be lieve that a man wearing a single eye glass and a double-end cap could have looked inquiringly at Columbus on the quay, and caused biiu to abandou his voy age'atid turn back and apply tor a position on the I'nlos police force. If our teachers want ail example of moral courage to hold up before the eye* ofyoulh, lrt them take that of Howard Wat<ou, ot Fox Ijike, Wisconsin. — Ilurptr's It'eclly.

Had there been any unearthed, you can rest assured it would have been publi-hed from "Dan to Beersheba," with groat headlines by these worthies, for if there is anything that comes near parallel with shaking a red rag before a Spanish bull it is to say "Pen sions for Union soldiers" to the average Democratic editor. But we defy the Her ald or acy of the papers from which it takes its clippings to point to a single in stance where a pensioner, regularly on the rolls, is drawing his pension fraudnlently. If any such there be. give us the facts and we will warrant the roll will b<; cleared as soon as the matter can be attended to. It is true the pension full is a large one. A vast amount ot money is paid out every year to the maimed defenders ot our coun try, their widows and orphans, but the question naturally arises, wby do we have a pension roll at al!t Wby are there so many thousands opon thousands of widow n the country bereaved of their natural support. that has to some ertent to l>e made np by the pen» ; ons that they draw from the Government? Wry so many or phaned children that have to lie cared for in such a wayf To answer these questions opens up a wide field, and shows for h in glaring colors the record of the Southern end of the Democratic pary. Every school-boy knows that it was the result of the rebellion inaugurated by the head and front of the Democratic part) —the South ern wing of it—that for fiendish cruelty, wickedness of purpose, and want of cause has not its equal in the history of the hu man race. Over three hundred th usand lives were sacrificed by the Union lovers of the land in lighting this rebellion to the death; over two and one half millions of men were called into the field before the terrible conflict was ended, and when it was finally crushed out, tho Uni.-n saved, and the debris of battle cleared away, then the people began to realize at what u fearful cost of treasure and blood that in iquitous Democratic rebellion was over thrown —hundreds of thousands of home all over this broad land left desolate and tne inmates therof clad in the habiliments of mourning tor the loss of a father, a son or brother sacrificed upon the alter of their country and all chargeable to the leaders of the Democratic party. This is why *>■ have a pension roll" The Democratic par'.y was the cause for it all, and il the Herald had any re-peet for the heroic dead wrio.se widows are upon tho lint, or the maimed or C'ippleil veterans whose hero ism. valor ami endurance crushed out tbo rebellion, saved the Union, and mado the country worth living in, it would think long before giving space in its columns to such tirades against pensioners as it did ii< last week's i»»ue. The least Democratic editors my about pensioners the better, for every time the subject is referred to it is a painful reminder that the Democratic party was the cause of all this •tremenilu ous outlay " they talk so much about. One strange tiling aiiout it all is this, you never hear a Democratic editor say a word about the Mexican pension bill that Grover Cleve land signed with such alacrity, when at the same time be refused to sign the de pendent pension bill that would have brought joy and gladness to many a house hold and poor widow in all parts of the country Why don't they rail against that piece of legislaiiouf The reason is very plain—Democratic editors never hurt their friends. The Mexican pension bill placed the soldiers of the Mexican war on the roll, nine-tents of whom bad either been in tin rebel army or were too old to be. but, liv ing in the South gave aid and comfort to the rebellion. "Consistency thou art a jewel." For shame's sake, gentlemen ot the Herald, have some decency about you and don't insult every living soldier.or the widows and orphans of those thai are dead, by printing such false and libelous clippings from other papers as last week's irsue id your paper contained JTSTITIA. THK legislature of Montana met at Hel ena Tuesday, under peculiar circumstances The membership ot the House is 5o The Democrats hold 20 certificates id election, the Republicans 26 and the Populists 3. A seriojs complication arose over over the now famous Box Elder case. The Choleau county canvassing board declared A. L. Hamilton, Democrat, elected by throwing out, the vote of Box Elder precinct. Had this precinct been couuted, W. J. Lei-ah. Republican, would have been elected. The matter .*"vs carried up to the Supreme Court, which ordered the canvassing board to reassemble and count Ihe prt-cinci which had been thrown out. The canva-- sers, upon hearing of the decision, ran away to Washington, the British posses ions and North Dakota. Mt. Chestnut Items.
