Byorder of lb ^ Territorial Democratic Central^i ^mn.lttee.A J. David*in, Cbairmw. W Winn i, Jr , Secretary. THI -I \ 1 I -IN ITK. TheMontana constitutional conveution^marked the completion of the first^month of its existence i y the adoption^of a proposition which it* based upon a^misconception of a theory of American^government and grounded uDon a sec^^tional jealonsy that should be beneath^the dignity of so important a body. It^was the provision for uniformity of rep^^resentation of the several counties in^the state seuate, regardless alike of the^^]uestions.of population or contribution,^in the form of taxes, to the revenues of^the state. Th.- principal argument ad^^duced by the advocates of the county^representation plan was that the states^are equally represented in the United^States senate, and that thirteen of the^thirty-i'ight state senates are similarly^constituted. There can be no force^whatever to the latter portion of this^statement, because if the mere question^of example is to be considered we have^twenty-five against thirteen in favor of^senatorial districts arranged upon the^basis of population. And as to the na^^tional senate, the case is not analogous,^for that body is not representative in^character, its members being chosen by^state legislatures instead of by direct^vote of the people. In the debate that^preceded the adoption of the legislative^portion of the national constitution it^was distinctlv avowed by John Dickin^^son, one of the foremost advocates of the^existing plan, that it should ^bear as^strong a likeness as possible to the Brit^^ish house of lords, and consist of men^distinguished for their rank in life and^their weight of property' ^tronsidera-^tiona that will sound strangely iu the^ears of representative* of the men who^toil with tbeir hands. The aigument^for the senate was. throughout, that^being chosen by the legislatures of the^several states^having undergone a pro^^cess of filtration, as one speaker de^^scribed it^it would act as a check^upon the purely democratic body, the^house of representatives. But the state^senate will undergo no snch refining^process; it will spring, as will^the house, direct from the people. It^may act like a check upon the house, but^not always, under the county plan, in a^healthful, wholesome manner. Meas^^ures designed to benefit the people as a^mass, and adopted by that body which^does in reality represent the people, be^^ing based upon population^which also^signifies taxable property^may be^vetoed in that house which represents^sectionalism and selfish local interest^^a spirit which is well exemplified in the treatmentby a Missoula journal of so^important a question as the location of^the state capital, when it said: ^We^cannot call to mind an instance where^Lewis and Clarke has shown any partic^^ular friendliness to Missoula,^ as though^there might be some d-adly antagonism^between the two counties, the prosperity^of one of which contributes to the well^being of the other. Atthe election of 1-^s for delegate to^congress the- combiu*! vote of Lewis^and Clarke and Silver Bow counties was^within a very small fraction of one-^third of the total vote of Montana, and^y^ t under the county plan adopted by^the convention yesterday. 41 to 23. those^two eouuti-v would have but one-eighth^of the total r-preseutation iu tbr state^senate. The t*x*ble value of the coun^^ties is in r-utive proportion, which^mases th^- injii-tice of the proposed plan^all the more rtpparnnt. The majority^should rule iu tue legislature, whether^it shall MMM -f one body, of two. or of^three. Montana wants no honse of leg^^islature bearing ^as -trong a likeness as^possible to the Briti-li house of lords,^^which has lieeu a brak- on the wheels of^progre-- for tno cntturies. Ihr-reis still a possibility th:^t the^convention nitty r^ineiiy the mi^take it^has mailt- iu this matter. Wli^n the^time comes for the adoption of the sec^^tion as a whole the friends of represen^^tative goveruuit nt will make one more^effort to have the obnoxious provision^amended, and. it is to be hoped, with^success. SaintCarnegie, having made several^millions out of American industries^which are protected to a superlative de^^gree, has reached the conclusion that^American mechanics are too well paid.^Saint Carnegie has been generous in^giving t^^ various deserving public insti^^tutions, but that will not justify him in^attempting to reduce the wages of^workingmen in the mills where the^money is made which goes to support an^estate in Scotland of baronial propor^^tions. The noblest ami the most benefi^^cent charity is that which enables men^to become by their own energies inde^^pendent of charity. THEMONTANA PRESS. Topic of Intere^t DiMUnes by Ll^e^^ r w ^ paper*. Yes,move your pegs. Mr. Windom, sayi^the Kiver Press. We know it is hard work^for you to go back on yourself, but ^^et a^gait^ and go back. We know you are a^gold tue of the most pronounced type and^a fossil z-sl stumbling block to the silver^and lead interests of the weet, but unless^you soon buy an extra ten dollars' worth of^silver for coinage or side track a car or two^of the Mexican lead ore which is coining^into the United States b^ virtue of a re^^publican law and republican rulings under^that law. republicans can't get the state^offices next October, and all hope of elect^^ing Harrison and Mantle to the Coifed^Mates senate will go a-glimmering. Thecry has gone out from every point in^j Montana of ^dull times.^ says the Boulder^Sentinel, but while we admit that money^is not so plentiful tt.is year as it baa been^j for two or three years past, business is by^' no means as dull as it seems to the casual^observer. We do not know of a business^house hut is doir.tr a fair amount of business^at this time, and the outlook is favorable^for this to co tinue. We predict that the^days of inflation are over, at least for some^vearN. and our people must make up their^minds to ko slow until more ijuart/. mines^are developed. It they would prosper,^the people ot Montana must devote more^attention to mining and less to speculation^in the future. Thedry condition of the ranges, says the^Lewiston Argus, suggests the possibility of^great damage by tire before winter sets in.^' It would be well to prepare to tight in ad-^1 vance. Last year several ingenious con^^trivances were made and placed on the^range by our cattle men and wool growers,^and when brought to trial worked to per-^| fection. There would seem to be greater^1 need this year than ever for united en-^i deavor to save the range from f res. s ^^j tices should again be posted warning the^careless or evil disposed of the conse^^quences of setting out tires. There is con^^siderable old grass tiiat will help to tide^over the winter if not consumed by prairie^: fires. Thepostmaster general explains that^his communication to the Western I'niou^Telegraph company was a suggestion^merely, and that he did Dot intend ^o be^urid-rstood as saying that the govern^^ment would pay but a mill a word. All^the same, payment of telegraph accounts^for the current year has been suspended^by the government. It is more than^likely the amiable Mr. Wair-iwaker^would object to a customer enteiiug his^Philadelphia store and claiming the^right to tak^ a dollar's worth rf goods^for a dime. It's a poor rule that doesn't^work both ways. Whereshall the capital be^^ asks the^Hutte Miner, and the Kort Benton Kiver^Press bursts into this rhapsody: Listen to ;the perfumed zephyrs as they gently sweep^over the fields of waving grain, the rich,^luxuriant grasses of the gently undulating^plains, the fertile virgin valleys, the^tlower-bedecked lawns, the thousands of^happy, prosperous homes, the lowing herds !and bleating flocks, the vast coal measures,^rhe trout-lart^n streams, ard the mighty^Missouri of northern Montana and the an- ;swer will be wbispert-d, Fort Benton. TheBrtter K M^t Bugle blows this warn^^ing blast: Wild animals are deserting^their haunts in the mountains on account^of the smoko. The family of C. P. Dye,^the blacksmith who lives on Camas prairie,^tell of a moose in the btck door-yard.^Wild ^eese loaf around to^vn these days^and would be shot if it wasn't agaiust the^law. Grasshoppers seem to loose tbeir^grasp on life, and it is feared by some that^the gnats and mosquitoes along the creeks^in tl.n rocky mountain country will all^^wMk Whither are we drifting Theaccomplished young editor of the^Journal has resnmed host'lities, sus^^pended by agreement between Gen.^Grant and Geu. Lee at Appomattox court^house in April, lHtio. It is true both^armies disbanded and returned to their^homes more than twenty-four years ago;^hut when the a. y. e.'s bugle call is^heard there will be a mounting in hot^haste such as has not been witnessed^siuce the ^sound of revelry by night^^was interrupted by the guns of Water^^loo. A new Napoleon is in the field. Theconstitution, in the opinion of the^Moulder Age, should prohibit the legisla^^ture trom making any grants in perpetuity^for any purpose, and especially for charit^^able purposes. OrhTwise the state may^be burri-'ned with the support of institu^^tions wfciefc it is not the ^' .it^ and may not^be the desire of the people of the state to^support, in fact, it were better that the^l^ gislature be prohibited from matting any^l-rints for charitable purposes, for such^grants are generally cloaks for robbing the^people. Mrs.Carrie Newburg Pitta will preside at^j the organ, the offertory of the morning^s^-rvice being sung by Miss Stephens: ot^the eveniBg by U. E Jackson. The public^are cordially invited to these services.^Cnion services will be held by the Con^i gregational and Baptist churches. The^morning service will be in the Congrega-^| tional church and the evening service in^i the Baptist church. Rev. F.

THE STOCK COMMISSIONERS Many old Brand* on Haml--The ^ea^Meeting-- a ^^out ( attie. Theboard of stock commissioners, at its^meeting held at Miles City last April^adopted a resolution directing the secretary^to send out crri-ulars to the owners of^brands throughout the territory, asking^them if they owned brands not in use and^which they were willing to have cancelled^This action was taken for the purpose of^getting rid of the very large surplus ot^brands now in stock in the archives of tt^secretary's office, many of which are dead^and unused. W. I. Harrison stated yester^^day to an Ijidki'KNDKnt reporter that^there are over o,500 brands now recorded^with him. which renders it extremely^diffieult to record any new brand w ithout^coming in conflict with those previously^recorded. The circulars have been sent^out, but he saye v. ry little attention h^been paid to the request. TheMontana Mock-growers' association^will hold its semi annual meeting in Hel^^ena on Tuesday. August 20, in the court^house. A large attendance is expected and^important business is to be transacted. The^railroads will sell round trip tickets for^one fare and a fifth trom all Montana^' points. TheWyoming and Montana associations^with a view to economy, will act together^I in the matter of inspectors at the St Paul^| and Chicago yards. The Montana in^spector at St Paul will do the work at that^point for both territories and the Wyoming^| man will do likewise at Chicago. TheStock growers' association has 200^I membership. At the last meeting the^membership fee was reduced trom $10 to^i S5. The secretary says he handled ^5o,000^j last year, money derived bv the stock de-^j tectives from the sale of strays. Thestatement of cattle shipments to St^; Paul and from Miles City, sent in by the^| inspectors, shows the shipments to be, to^M. Paul for July 3,200; for June from^j Miles City 3,S00; from F ^rt Benton about^600. The horse shipments to St. Paul for^July are 3.5Kri, a.-ainst 704 for June. Cattlemenare preparing to make some^heavy shipments this month and cattle are^being fattened for market The stock^growers are alive to the importance of ^i i-^ing something to save themselves from the^| danger which threatens, owing to the^shortage of hay and water, and will not^I keep any more stock on hand^; than they can take care of. The^; severe experience of tne winter^of lSHo-ti was one which will not bear^repetition and a recurrence of the heavy^loss will not happen if they know them^selves. They have agents in the field pur^chasing all the available, hay and have t^good supply of feed left from last year. Theprospect of the appearance of^Murat Hal-tead in the Cnited States sen^^ate cannot be particularly pleasing to^these republican members of that body^who voted and spoke against his con^^firmation as minister to Berlin. Bat^the democrats will endeavor to spare^them that mortification by electing a^st ite legislature in Ohio that will send^a good democrat to the senate. FrankHatton, who as postmaster^general under the Arthur administra^^tion shielded republican railway mail^clerks canght iu the act of robbing the^mails, is very naturally an advocate of^the clean-sweep doctrine being practiced^by Clarkson. Wi:h Hatton and Clark-^son a thieving republican is preferred to^an honest democrat iu the postal ser^^vice. Thedemocrats of Jefferson and Bea^^verhead couuties lead their brethren of^the territory in the matter of organiza^^tion, the county central committees hav^^ing been called to meet on the 6th and^th inst., respectively, to arrange for the^campaign. A little rivalry between the^several counties as to which shall have^the most thorough organization will^conduce to democratic success. Tad^RoossEyklt is coming to Mon^^tana- If he is loaded with civil-service-^reform ideas he must be at once notified^that in this state above all others ^pub^^lic office is a family trust. Whilewe believe the capital should re^^main where it is until its permanent loca^^tion is fixed, says the Missoulian, it is never^^theless true that Helena has no particular^claim on Missoula Werannot call to mind^an instance where Lewis and Clarke has^shown any particular friendliness or chari^^ty toward Missoula Can anyone else '.' TfteGreat Falls Tribune joins the chorus^in saying to the constitutional convention:^^Economise your time; do not speak un^^less you have something to say: give us all^the time you can to piepare for the prima^^ries and the territorial convention. We^cannot nominate until we know all the^officers who are to be elected. Theconvention, the Butte Miner well^says, is lingering too long over passes and^some strictly legislative work. It must^hurry up its cons'itution-making. The^other conventions have now nearly com^^pleted their labors. Thevisit of Kev. T. Dewitt Talmage. the^great Brooklyn orator, will be the event tt^August.
