rP' v M't'V '"' 1 '-Y O' :rpvwr. MONTANA SATURDAY. NOVEMBER 1. 1884. «MMWPVM The English parliament Ins been called together for the especial purpose of con sidering a bill to extend the franchise to a greater number of citizens of the United Kingdom, that is to reduce the property qualification still farther. A. J. Edsall and James Uourley seem to have retired from active personal par ticipation in the canvass. Their friends have probably advised them of the fact that the more they show themselves the less votes the} 7 will receive. The Courier opposes the .Montana con stitution because the preamble refers to "the great legislator of the Universe." When any man becomes so thoroughly steejHid in agn >stic atheism that he cannot abide the mention of a supreme governing power, whether spiritual or merely natural, he must be in a condition very nearly akin, though opposed, to the most ignor ant and illiberal religious bigotry. In choosing between a narrow-minded bigot and a pugnacious blasphemer, give us the former. Tammany II ill held a oigiiemonstr.tion on Tuesday night—the biggest political show of the campaign. Twenty thousand people marched in procession and thous ands more listened to the eloquence ol such men as Senator Bayard, John Lee Carroll, and Congressman McAdoo. It was a convincing demonstration of the oft iterated assurance that John Ivelly an* Ins great Tammany following are solid foi the national democracy. However mucl disseminators of republican inspiration may seek to convey the impression that Tam n my is i;i m im >igi or unletin - ble position, the fact remains a id will b< proven on election day that the cohorts o that great political organization are fol lowers of Cleveland. In a political meeting iii Brooklyn 01 . Thursday, Henry Ward Beecher took the platform in defense of Grover Cleveland s private character, and to denounce the inis"rahlc gang of political hoodlum.» who have manufactured and circulated lies about him. Some time ago Mr . Beecher scut Cleveland a number ol newspaper clippings containing these poisoned arrows aimed at Cleveland's character, and asking a reply to them loi the benefit of herself and her husband. Cleveland replied at length in a very feel ing letter marked "private." Herelerrei to his life in Albany and named the few places he had visited there, and those with whom he had associated. Of his life in Buffalo In; referred to the esteem in which he was held there, to prove that his career had not been a disgraceful one. This letter Beecher read and concluding said: "When in the gloomy night of my own sufferings in years gone by I sounded every depth of sorrow. I vowed if God would bring the daystar of hope to me, 1 would never suffer a brother, friend oi neighbor to go unfriended should a like serpent seek to crush him. That oath I'li regard now bee mss I know the bitterness of venomous lies. I will staud against the infamous lies that seek to sting to tin death a man and magistrate worthy ol a better late." If it lie "If '•our It is not surprising to find that the pa per (the Enterprise) is rapidly losing the respect and patronage of the community in which it is published.—Courier. Is the Enterprise losing the respect and patronage of Livingston ? Assuming for the moment that it is true,is it surprising? What has the Enterprise done that il •hould be boycotted or that its friend» should shrink away from it ? The Ln terprise since its establishment has done everything in its power for the ad vancemcnt of Livingston. Whatever in fluence the columns of a consistant, re liable, interesting newspaper may have on public opinion, Ins been exercis'd by this paper. The fact that a daily news paper of that description is published in Livingston is known as far as the town it self is known, and that such u paper is published here has made the to.-n known to a degree of favorable opinion that it Could not otherwise have attaiued. S< much have we done and are doing to lose the "respect and patronage" of this people. '1 he course of the propri etors in their professional relations with oilier newspapers lias never been such as has cast a blot on the lair fame of our town; on the contrary through such re lations they have, without emolument or the hope of reward, done much to adver tise this town mu! country. This is why they lose the respect of this community. The firm which publishes this pa|»er has constantly paid out as much iu wages and for current expenses as auy business house in tile town and often more; this money has (unfortunately for those who earned it) been s|ient in Livingston. So much to lose the respect of the town. But it would appear probable that our unpardonable sin has been one of a political nature. We have opiuions and we claim the right to express them. The editor of u paper can not afford to be a free lance at the com mand of every person, faction or party, mouthing the opinions of all or any Mho may wish publication of their views. A paper cannot advocate lioth sides of a dis puted question, nor can it pursue a middle course, for by striving to avuid the Scylla of discussion it will fall into the Cliaryb disnf disrespect. We have endeavored to ascertain the right side of ail public ques-i Magi ttpr ** Merit* dMOMtalrf prints is tion and Ihe Lake after when ted not, ever l»e called con to a seem par fact the con to In bigot the ol Lee It oft an* foi that - b< o fol 01 . the s the . ol 1 a umns, and we contend that so far as they have been settled the result has ever justi j fied our convictions and our course. In the campaign that was ojieued last Juie by the nomination of Blaine and Logan we took the course pursued by the major ity of the resectable journals ol the land. We opjK'sed them. That opposition will on November 4t'i be justified by the votes of G.iliatin county, of Montana and, we pray God, by the United States. Is it for thus asserting our preference between two candidates, for neither of whom we could vote, that we have lost "the respect and patronage" of Livingston? On the 18th of September the democratic convention for Gallatin county was held. Its action in nominating a legislative ticket was such as we regarded as an insult to Livingston and to eastern Gallatin county, as being inimical to our interests and as unworthy of endorsement. Ou that point our opin ion lias never changed and no change of opinion has been expressed. Perhaps it is for this course that we have lost the resj>ect of this community. On the 2Lth of September the republicans of the coun ty held a convention and made nomina tions. Their legislative ticket was the best they could select from the party ranks and we have found no iault with it. If it has not met with our active support it is because the conceited, self-sufficient crowd that is managing the republican campaign has expressed the hope and the desire that the Enterprise should not give its support to their legislative ticket Hie support of the Enterprise has never been forced upon any person against ex pressed wishes; it may be freely given but it will never beg for acceptance. Is it because of these facts that we have ceased to command respect? We assisted in the nomination of certain candinates on the democratic ticket—men who were our first choice, whom we believe to be the best men w ho could have been selected .or the respective offices which they seek. And we advocate the claims of those men. Mayhap bv this course we are outraging public sentiment. But if we are losing ground in Livingston who is taking the ground thus vacated? The Bozeman Courier and its editor, we presume—a pa per and a man who up to a very few veeks ago were the most uncompromising enemies of this town; who lied about it. ridiculed it, belittled it. fought it in every vay. Does any sensible man suppose file views of that paper or nave changed? Surely not t the paper which was scattered by Kindreds of copies in this town yesterday and note its ill-concealed indignation at mr opposition to Alfred Myers, the pro nounced enemy of Livingston. Since the county division i sue fias been imported int > this campaign we will state our belief that W. W. Alderson is as strongly oppos ed to the measure as any man can be. Notwithstanding his professions it would be as impossible for him to change his deadly, opposition to tins town as for a leopard to change its spots. The republi cans of this town have taken him into their confidence, have constitué d him rlieir leader; they are warming in their breasts a viper that will sting them, lustead of them having Alderson harness ed to their chariot, Alderson lias them in his {lower. Because we express such a lielief, because we have pointed out the progress of the conspiracy that led to the ascendency of this foul leader over the misguided political fledgelings who as sume to lead the republicans of this town, we must needs lie considered Livingston's enemy and lose "respect and patronage. If such be the tem|>er of our friends and patrons we wish to know it quickly, i.'ut it is not true—it is false. It is persisteutly dated that President Arthur will in a few weeks marry Miss 1'illie Frelinghuysen, daughter of tin secretary of State. day. They came from all paris of the world, and many of them were from America, John Kelly is reported to have sajd that lie was convinced the vote cast in New York City iu November would be an uti precedently heavy one—at least 225,000. "If this calculation is correct,'' said he, '•our ticket will get fully 100,000. the re publicans about 70,000 or.75,000, and the greenbackers will bag the remainder." presence of Messrs. Toole, Vivian and Magi nuis, was a great demonstration.

Mrs. H. N. Barkley lias been placed on the democratic ticket. This makes four ladjes who are candidates for that office in the different counties. The president has designated James H.

Marr is at present chief clerk in the office of the first assistant post master general and has been performing the duties of the latter office since the appointment of Hatton as postmaster general. ___ DEMOCRATIC MEETING. Held In Livingston Last Night and Ad dressed by the Leaders of the Party. From Tuesday's Daily. The democratic meeting last evening was the great event of the campaign—far above anything either republican or dem ocratic that has gone before. One gentle man described it as a "refreshing contrast' with the republican meetings. And in deed it was so. The great and enthusi astic crowd remaining attentively in the hall and bubbling into prolonged applause at very short intervals, was a strong contrast with the drowsy little audience which kept traveling in and out the hall on the occa sion of the appearance of Knowles and Blake on the Livingston platform. The commanding appearance, the clear, ring ing voice, the graceful gestures, the no ble sentiments, the eloquent rhetoric of Joe eph K. Toole stood out in bold relief when the opportunity came to compare them with the uninteresting personality, the somnolent tones, the commonplace ideas, and the petty expression's that char acterized Hiram Knowles' address. Major Maginnis' commanding bear ing, bursts of eloquence, sharp and witty points, bold discussion of every subject and person, thorough knowl I e< *© e °f public men aud affairs, and his env iable record known to every person in the room, made so much more apparent the whining littleness, the personal lamen tations, the cranky nothingness of Mar shal Botkin's talk a week or two ago And how raw, illiberal and common is the memory of Andrew Burleigh's waving of tfie bloody shirt, his baseless assertions delivered will) su.ch a flourish of trumpets, when compared wit ■ tiie sound arguments the lilieral doctrines, the bold utterances of the leading speakers of last evening Last night we had typical democratic talfi—-the lines sharply drawn, every po sition impregnable and every point dem onstrated; our republican speeches have also been characteristic— marked by time-worn appeals to the feelings, evasions or perver sions of the truth and "glittering gener alities." A very large crowd was in attendance and almost ail were ycters who listened intel ligently, even anxiously, to yyfiat was said. A great many more democratic voters, or at least voters for J. K. Toole, left the hall than had entered it. •Judge Savage acted as chairman of the meeting and introduced as the first speak er Hon. S. W. Langborne, editor of the Bozeman Chronicle. Like John Afileu Mr. Langhorne is a writer rather than a fighter, but he is, nevertheless, capable of m iking a good speech, and lie did so lust night. He confined himself mostly to lo cal affairs. He referred in compliment ary jerins to Livingston, and expressed his confidence in the town's future prosperity. Hç then considered the county democratic ticket. 9 descrilied it as the best ticket ever put in the field by th' party during bis fourteen years of residence here, and advised dem ocrats not to scratch it and thus place cudgel in the bands of republicans wi which to beat the dem<x;ratic party. He then referred in terms of high and deserv ed commendation to C. P. Blakely and M M. Black aqd Wm. Fly, and to the candi late» generally. He mentioned how Sheriff Blakely had during two years past held an iron grasp upon the rough and lawless spirit existing in one element of the county's population; how M M. Black had as lioy and man l>een an esteemed resident of the county, and how completely he had, in office, justified the popular estimate of his character; how thoroughly William Fly's sturdy, un flinching honesty, his detestation of all trickery and corruption, his long identi ficatipn with the county and his known ability exceptionally fitted him for the office of treasurer. Mr, Langhorne glanced back over the history of the ad ministration of county affairs, and dem onstrated how the republicans were re sponsible for our county debt, how they had increased tax levies and permitted defalcations. Mr. Langhorne's speech was very interesting and, we doubt not, effective. Robert F. Vivian, the candidate of the democratic party for the office of district attorney of the First Judicial district followed. Mr. Vivian did not take op much time. Everrone knows his record of the and to gard how ial there to as a lawyer, and bow well he discharg« d tiie dutie« of the office when lie held t ÿifrilr * rirci *u i f be a 1 and the uuanimous choice of the whole : He was the j district, and his election is sure. of spoke hut briefly, knowing that the au Mr. dience was anxious to hear the sjieakers that were to follow. He expressed his such day fitting ter candi placed makes that H. post on clerk post the Ad dem in the kept and The ring no of of his in of or a confidence in Blaine's defeat, and in the prospectif an economical aud honest ad ministration under Cleveland, an adminis tration whose inception would not be marked by tue strikes aud labor difficult ies that had followed the inauguration of Grant and Garfield and are existing to-day. He referred to the Crow reservation and testified from his personal knowledge that Major Maginnis had done all that lie could to reduce it and his confidence that Toole would take up the work where Maginnis leaves it. He closed with an explanation that lie had lost his scrap book. He said he understood that his opponeut, Judge Blake, had it and if so he would cive up ever getting it for lie was sure Blake was so far behind that he would never over take him to return it and lie did not have time to go back after it. Hon. Joseph K. Toole, the candidate of the democracy of Montana for the posi tion of delegate in congress then took the platform. We have in former issues pub lished a sketch of his life. He came to Montaua when 18 years of age and is now 33 years old. He has held the highest position (except that which lie now seeks) in the gift of the people of Montana— [»resident of the council—beside a great number of other offices only less in honor. He has filled them all with increasing honor. Last evening he was suffering from exhaustion consequent upon cam paign work, complicated by a severe cold and cough. He referred to his opponent in high terms but at the same time cau tioned his audience that lie was doing no electioneering for Judge Knowles. The presence of ladies in the audience led him into an eloquent reference to some of the eminent ladies of History and to the can didate of the sex for the office of presi as dent; "the advancement of woman {jointsj the pathway of civilisation." The speak er then approached national politics which he believed the territory of Montaua, in standing on the verge of statehood, could I not afford to ignore. He described how the republican party, once a party of high aims and principles, had become steeped in fraud, corruption and extravagance and was only maintained in power by a horde of political janizaries in the form of fed eral office-holders and by the cohesive I power of public plunder. He believed that the trumpet of doom was sounding for the party. He did not see for them any comfort in the drawn battle of the October election in Ohio which hud been obtained by the most shameless frauds to and a coercion that was almost military in its nature. He referred to the tariff ques tion as one that was not a dividiug issue between flic parties. The democratic I was principle was that taxes should I to fall heaviest upon the luxurje.»] of life and lightest upon the J The necessaries.and that taxes should be levied I to >ucli an extent as would pay the ex penses of un economical government. So I far the tariff policy of the democracy see went and no farther, fhc professions of j the republicans of love and protection for I over tin laboring classes he characterized as mere professions. He pointed out how he the grab-all capitalists and monopolists had sprung up under republican adminis- in (ration, any how strikes and labor diffi- a culties, and pauper labor and suffering head workmen were unknown iipder democrat ic governmert. He showed how the re the publican government had given away the public domain, uutil now the laud-seeker and could witli difficulty find a place to make of 9 poor man's home, and how the land so given away ^remained exempt from taxa tion, though held at a high price. To] the give a fair exemplification of the charac- ditor ter of the republican administration, he cited the Credit Mobilier, the whisky I ernor ring that jÆnetrated even the White House, the S'ar Route frauds, the navy him corruption and the pension steals. If the] Wool nation wanted a new apd a clean admin- the istration, if could not afford to eject] to Blaine. He referred to that gentlemen's character as shown by the Mulligan let-1 ters, of his record as a Know Knotliing, j be of his foreign policy as instanced by the I and McSweeney case. Indeed he had never cate known anything striking about Blaine's kin foreign policy except his connection with the guano deposits of P$ri). Blaine, he said, was a man of many diverse princi- thing pies. Iu Maine he was a burning prohi- j iu bitioniat, and in Ohio was ready to drink ] beer aud ear limburger with the Ger-1 ton's mans; in New England he was a straight-1 laced Congregationalism and wherever I men convenient an ardent Catholic. He pro-1 to nouuced a high panegyric on Cleveland fore and expressed bis belief that while party of feeling was prominent, this national cam- ! paigli was emphatically a contest between Clevelaud and Blaine. Mr. Toole then j ed touched upon territorial subjects. His I utmost endeavors, he said, would be given I full to a furtherance of the desires of the without people of this tpwp aqd county with re- the gard to the Cinnabar A Clark's Fork j railroad bill, though he could not. see] vote how a matter of such purely business in-1 Major terest demanded its place in tbe territor» I Gov. ial republican platform. (It was put I tried, there to catoh votes.) Regarding Indian the reservations lie could have but one faith— I W. to reduce them, wipe them out.

When the ad be of and that said up was have of the to now no the in the constitutional convention, he had urged that any provision adjusting taxa tion belonged to legislation and not to the constitution where it could be changed only by great difficulty. That position he maintained and still held to. He be lieved that no provision regarding taxa tion should be in the constitution. If it was urged against him that he was oppos ed to encouraging the mining industry, lie would only say in defense that all the money he bad ever made from his profes sion had been spent in mines and that if ever he hoped to gain a competence it was from the mines he owned. He closed with the declaration that should he be elected be should know no section of Montana—no north, no south, no east, no west, but would work for the benefit of every resident of our great territory so far as it lay within the line of his official duties. Then followed Major Martin Maginnis, our present delegate in congress, aud took the stand. He is at all times one of the readiest, wittiest and most entertaining of sjieakers and has been honored many times by invitations to deliver speeches before high societies and organizations, and in such set speeches few surpass him in eloquence. His present campaign speeches are necessarily of a somewhat desultory character but none the less in teresting. He was at his best last night. He seemed to fell free of auy restriction and not to cure what he said so long as it was true. II constantly made witty hits and strong points that were seemingly as unexpected and unpremeditated with him as with the audience. His address was almost entirely confined to territorial af fairs with which lie is thoroughly convers ant. He had retired in favor of Toole, lie said, and whatever might have been his shortcomings he would assure the audi ence that in congress, in the departments, in society, wherever in Washington his I duty pr his inclination might lead him Joseph K. Toole, if elected, would never lose anything by being known as the friend and successor of Martin Magiums. Two years ago, said the speaker, the republican convention met at Butte suffering under repeated defeats. It reminded him, lie I said, of a family of early settlers in Ne braska. Aftci; a hard winter they found themselves short of provisions in the spring. They discovered a plant on tlu piairie that from its looks promised to make excellent greens and they concluded to try them. But they had misgivings about whether the herb might be whole some or not. All the large family were stalwart and healthy except Jason and he I was a sickly weakling. So they resolved I to feed the greens to Juum und if he stood the dose they would all take them J The Major and the audience sqw in this I story a close resemblance to the republi cans at their convention two years ago I They gave the nomination to Botkin to see if he could stand it; it disagreed with j Botkin aiid be has had the stomachache I over his dose ever since. Referring to Judge Knowles lie said that whenever he had heard that gentleman speak it re minded him of what he saw in Beartowu in the early days of territorial history. In a concert hall in that wild camp, over the head of the violinist was a placard •Don'tshoot the performer; lie is doing the liest he can." He referred to Botkin's contest. Anyone poultl bring a contest, and on any ground or without the shadow of a foundation. The democrats of this territory have no representation on the canvassing board, which is composed of the territorial treasurer, the territorial au ditor and flie U. £>. marshal—all appointed republicans. Two years ago, 'before Gov I ernor Crosby arrived here, republican leaders communicated with him urging him to come and turn out Weston and Wool man and appoint officers who upon the canvassing board would- not hesitate to issue the certificate to Botkin. But Crosby did do so, and Weston and Woolman, though republicans, could not j be swerved from their sense of justness I and honesty, and they issued the certifi cate of election to Maginnis. Then Bot kin brought bis contest in congress. His grounds were illegal railroad votes in Missoula county, but he never said any thing about the republican railroad votes j iu Gallatin county. He objected to votes ] alleged to have been polled from Wins ton's camp on the reservation, but Botkin himself spoke ope hour to those same men in the same place trying to get them to vote for him. The contest came be fore the committee on election, consisting of 8 democrats to 7 republicans. They referred it to a sub-committee of three republicans. That sub committee report ed it a wanton, audacious, frivolous, im pertinent and malicious contest. Tbe full committee accepted their view of it without demur or objection, and when the report was presented to the honse of representatives there was not a dissenting vote even ajoqoqg J3Ô republicans. The Major referred to other contests; one in Gov. Edgerton's time when that official tried, in the pf 3.500 majority, to give the certificate Of election to his nephew, W. F.

Thomas Francis Meagher, but that aud brave man was not to he bulldozed. , • . I reat patriot, j Major Maginnis then referred to the ques-i tion of ludian reservat uns ed how a great part of the territory had been plastered over with reservations so that there might be more jobs for thiev ing agents and less opportunity to see what was done at the agencies. If it was charged that lie had not ootained tiie seg regation of reservations he would say that during iiis repiesentation of Montana 40, 000 square miLes of this territory had been released from Indian domain. He hoped to get more concessions of that kind before bis term expired and if not Joe Toole would. It is claimed that a democratic delegate can do but little in the Indian business, but lie would assure Iiis audience that were it not for western ami southern votes in congress not an In dian reservation would ever be reduced. The Major then approached a department of the Indian question that tickled his audience beyond measure. He referred to Indian agents and particularly to YV.W. Alderson whom lie truthfully said was a broken down Methodist minister sent out here to preach the gospel and rob the In dians; who out of a salary of $1.500 per year made $30,000 in nine months. Once when Alderson was agent at Fort Peck a steamer went up the Missouri loaded so light with ludian supplies that she never struck a snag or bar aud came down so heavily loaded with vouchers for goods received that she was nearly wrecked. Alderson was in the halnt of taking 10 bags of flour aud receipting for 1,000, aud when cattle were delivered at the agency they would be driven around a dozen or more times and Alderson would receipt for them every time and then let them be driven off for sale elsewhere. And this man, he understood, was the recognized leader pf the republicans of Livingston and Gallatin county. (All this talk provoked uproarious applause and laughter.) The Major touched upon the subject of the admission of Montaua as a state, and said it would occur in the near future when Dakota and Montana, hand in hand, the one republican and the other democratic, knocked at the door of the Union of States. The jilank of the territorial republican convention relating to the duties on wool, copper and lead the speaker demonstrated to be most foolish and baseless. Copper and lead are ex ported from this country and English prices for those metals rule prices in this country. The Ohio wool-growers them selves confessed that the present duty on wool builds up the territorial wool indus try and injures the growth of the finer grades in Ohio. Referring to the charge that the democrats were opposed to build ing a navy the Major related how $400, 000,000 had been appropriated by repub licans to build a navy and, said he, "where is the navy and where are the four hunt! red millions?" Tbe democrats knowing Bill Chandler's corrupt record refusod tc grant the appropriation for a navy last winter on the eve of election Major Maginnis, much to the regret of the audience, closed his speech about that point and the meeting dispersed with three rousing cheers for Groyer Cleveland aud Joseph K.
