II I reported from Montana tome of the
Republican poiiiHam are tfralil lhat in case
two Republicans go to Washington with im
perfect certificate In their pocket th tenate
will not admit them as tenaUrt from Montana,
oa Iba ground that their election wat based 011
the erroneous proHition In mathematics that
7 It a majority of 16, Wa can hardly believe
th existence of tuch a fear among Re; ublicaa
politicians. It hat become an established
prmi'lpt in Republican arithmetic that a part
It gtea'er than the whole, when the pari I R.
publican; lhat 3 equals 3 when a ia th maxi
mum Republican strength, and it requires 3
to secure the desired end; tlmt when a ma
iorliv of glvn numlier It necessary leu than
half constitutes a majority, if there are no
more Republicans. "King Hub" Kennedy
lal.lu.lieJ that principle in the Ohio senate
when h wat lieutenant governor, the Repub
lican lieutenant governor of Mon'ana acte4
upon il in Ihe senate of lhat state; il it asserted
by Republican correspondents at Washington
that Sjieaker Kel intends making a ruling to a
similar effect against Ihe uniform ruling of his
predecessors in th speaker's chair. Why,
therefore, tliouid there be any doubt about th
Republican atnat following those Republican
precedent when the seating of two Republican
senttor depends upon it t
It is truet'iiere are among the Republican
senators at Washington men of reputation ter
knowledge of figures who would be amazed a
Ihe proposition that lets than half Is a majority
and other who would stultify ihemsclvef by
admitting th legality or honesty of Ihe pro
ceeding of tlie Montana Republicans, but
they can be dcended on to put their convic
tion in their pocket at ihe bidding of a Repub
lican caucus, vote Ihe two begut senator into
their seat for Montana, and compound with
tbeir consciences -y saying their duty lo the
party prohibited th bolting of a caucus decree.
Cleveland riaimlalr,
INCORRECT.
In view of lh fact that two set of United
States senators hav been elected from Mon
tana, (two democrats and two republicans,)
Ihe Ortfotu'i y.
"If it were to be established Wyond dispute
that the count clerk certificate, and ihey
only, were legal, and lhat Ihe democrat lrom
Silver Bow we entitled lo teats, cvea a re
Clark. If It were lo be decided beyond ques
tion that the certificate of the Mate canvass
ing beard had a higher validity than those of
th county clerk, and that lite rep'4l lican from
Silver Mow were legal member of the legisla
ture, no reasonable democrat would object to
the admission of Sander and Power. "
Now ihi doe not Mate the case as it is.
The contention' depends upon a matter farther
back than the mere difference of certificate U-tue-4
by th county clerk and Mat cinvassing
board. The great wrong done in the first
place was the throwing out of (he entire vote
of Tunnel precinct by Ihe canvassing board of
Silver Itow county. This the board had no
right to do. No reputable lawyer can be
ound that would justify the course of the caa-
tvaasitrg board of thai county. By tbi fraud.
(for it can be called nothing elte.) the repubU
cant secured a majority in Ibe tower bouse.
Had the caavaasiog board done it duty it
would make no difference whether member of
the legitlatur had county or Mate certificate,
there would have bea but one frim faei
delegation from Silver Bow county. Thit
board threw out 1 73 vote because it wa al
leged that tome of them wert illegal. It has
been decided lime and again lhat board
can act only ministerially and not judicially.
Let Ihi whole matter be looked into and the
whole country will be iified.

erved a governor from 1S66 to 1S70. It
wa during hi term and largely through
hi influence that the legislature of 1868
wa broken up and the tate government
compelled to run two year without an
appropriation to pay expentct. HI ad
ministration wa unpopular and the dem
ocrat in 1870 carried the ttate electing all

The republican in the lower house of con
gress propose to adopt a set of rule by which
the minority will have no right as member
which the majority will be bound to respect
They propose to confer upon the ipeaker Ihe
autocratic power of deciding by a mere verbal
count that a quorum it present. These leid
e-a are taking the same step over (gain that
led to their overthrow in 1884. These revol
utionary tactic will result in far greater barm
to the 'republican than to the democrats.
Democrat when in th majority in that body
held taered the right of the republican min
ority, and the country will not be slow in de
eiding that the rulei under which a democratic
house legislated are good enough for the pres

Every argument made to cuttain Ih

upon false assumption. The Timtt-L
AfoMnlalmfr In speaking of objections to the
Mill bill tayti "Th Mill bill ot the latt
session wat particularly objectlonab'e, be
cause It placed production in Ihe north-
such a wool, lion, etc., Industries which
were ausceptlble of great development, on
the free list, and retained nearly the full
duty on tugar. which wa produced onlv
n two or three southern states, and then
not In sufficient quantity lo tupply the lo
cal demar.d." Thit ttatrment Is made'le
support Ihe charge lhat Ihe Mills hi I was
tramed exclusively In Ibe Interest ot the
south. The statement that Iron wat put
on the free list In Ihe Mill bill Is not true
but It seem necessary lo make til Hate-1
ment In order to maintain the allega'lon
lhat the Mills bill was gotten up In the
Interest ofthe south. Is the Mvvniaiwtr
o wrapped up In Its devotion lo the wa
tariff that It It willing to rl.k It reputation
for truth and veracity In order to stigma-
le Ihe Mill bit! anil tariff reform as be
ing in the interest of the south? It
would seem o. That paper would make
it reader believe lhat wool is grown only
n the north. Now nearly two-filth of
the entire wool crop of the country I
raised in Ihe south and democratic state,
which show lhat Ihi t objection to tariff
reduction wa bated on a fa'se assumption
The MuuniojuefT disclose It irrevocably

daring that it I In favor ot putting tugar
on the tree list and giving the farmer a
bounty to engage in growing beet and
manufacturing tugar out of them. Dur
ing the latt campaign It proclaimed loudly
agalntt what it wa pleated to call Ihe
ectlonalism of the Mill bill, and new It
propotet to put tugar on the tree list, thus
taking awav all the protection the touth
has, If It be true that Iron and wool are
productions of the north only. How
could sectionalism be more dUtlnc lively
narrow and elfih than thit? But It ha
been a very favorite habit of the bt
Uinttr to denounce the Democrat a a
"free trrde Journal" because i: favored
free wool. It it be true that a man who
favor taking the duty from wool which a
mount to about $(,000,009 a year I a
'free trader," then I not a man much
more a "free trader" who fa vors removing
$6o,oos,ooo dutle from sugar Th
Mulaimr say that it giving s bounty
to tugar producer is a robbery, (a the
Democrat called It) then the Mill bill
wa a whole tile robbery for It aimed to
tax every nun In the country who used
ugar tor the benefit of MIttlatlppI and
Louisiana planter. What a pity that pro
tectlonLt will not content to meets!! thee
question candidly and fairly. Now doe
not the Momntaintwr know that the Milla
bill found a very heavy tax or duly at
ready on sugar.ptaced there by the repub
lican party In iSsyf Doe not that paper
kno wthat the Mill bill sought to ritmc
the already high tat on sugar, and that
Ita party voted agalntt this reduction
Then, why say lhat the Mill bill imd to
tat: ever man in the country who used
ugar for the benefit of Mississippi and
Louisiana planters The purpose I very
apparent It I characteristic of those
who are cal lei upon to maintain an ab
surdity or a wrong, lo cvntute the public
by raiting a veiy great moke. The
Momntmmttr tart It wanta to keep the las
uty on jule, (and thit meana keeping a
continual tax on the farmer) in order that
tome Invention of a substitute to take the
place of jute may be made. But we have
had that duty on jute for about twenty
year and our farmers and other who use
jute have been paying this lax all this
lime and no Invention of a substitute yet-
Even upon It own faulty plan the time
haa now arrived when the MumlUcr
houtd speak at least one word tor the
wheat raiser. Come join the Democrat
n demanding that this congress shall re
move this nonsensical and obnoxious tax
from jute and jute sack.
