sum will pay all outstanding warrants

the treasury. This is for the most par',

At 2 o'clock the afternoon the
guests seated themselves in the handsome
cars ready to begin the journey
to the dam and return. A few minutes
after that time the cars started and sped
merrily along over the route without a
break or halt save when it was necessary
to stop to allow some one to get on.
Everything worked satisfactorily and
the ride to the destination was unmarred
by any delay. All noted the even and
easy motion of the cars and more than
one spoke of the care displayed in the
management of the head and trail cars.
When the powerhouse at the dam was
reached many availed themselves of an
opportunity to inspect its machlanery
while others took cocasion to descend to
the suspension bridge and examine that
structure. Some ladies and gentlemen
walked across the bridge and examined
the buildings and works on the Boston
ard Montana side, while others strolled
up and down the jagged bluffs of the
grand old Missourl.
After a stop thirty minutes at the dam
the ringing bell announced all to return
to the cars, which were arranged to is
turn to the city. Soon every one was
seated and the happy party started on the
return trip. The journey back to the
heart of the city was soon made, and
every one was reluctant to end the

evstem, who has worked faithfully to
have the system in running order for the
opening excursion was among the pas
sengers and received numerous congrat
ulations. He said he had started many
systems, but never saw one work so sat
idfactorily at first.
Mr. Dickinson, the genial superintend
ent, made the trip as pleasant as possible
for his guests, and received the thanks of
all. The following ladies and gentlemen
made up the party: Mayor Dickerman,

Lozloox, March 17.-In the course of a
reply to an address presented to him at
Hastings shortly after his arrival Glad
stone said: "I should like to say a word
about Parnell's speech in which he said
that he had opposed the claims of the
labor candidates in England in conse
quence of the obligation he was under
to the liberal leader. There is not one
word of truth in this statement so far as
I am concerned. ["Heart" "Hear!"]
Far from opposing the claims of the la
bor candidates, I have always been ready
to support them." [Cheers.] Touching
upon the painful disclosures of the di
vorce court Gladstone said that it was
not his place to judge the amount of the
delinquency, but It was the part of the
liberals to consider upon what principals
they would be guided in the disposal of
their votes. The liberals knew that the
cause of home rule depended upon them.
The conservatives might pass the measure
for home rule on lines indicated by the
liberals, but "the ill-starred adoption of
the call of the liberal unionuts" were the
real objectors to the home-rule measure.
The liberals, added the veteran states.
man, had arrived at a definite conclusion
in regard to Parnell. He (Gladstone)
was merely a reporter of the general con
viction that the party was against Par
nell. This conviction was arrived at in
December. It held good now. [Cheers.|
l'he liberals were ready to face defeat,
exclusion, misfortune, but they were not
prepared to create a constitutional lead
eaship fcr Irelandt under such guidance
as L'arnell's. No consideration would make
them do so. [Cheers.] Referring to the
government's Irish administration Ulad
stone contended that Ireland was gov
erned one way anti Great Britain was
governed another way. Irishmen contin
led to be deprived of many liberties that
the English enjoy. It was for the Irish
people themselves to solve the quIti(,st
by a prompt and unanimous declatrationt
against the exist ig tadministration. Inl
conclusion Glladstone expressed the
opinion that it was the duty )of the lib
ernl.do prosecute this great and patriotici
purpose., and to o,!tain justice ftor Ireland,
knowine that Iy coliurageous alppllication
of lbheral principles they would secure a
union of classes, dominion of law and
stability of the crown. [Cheers.J
