WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 13, 1889. - IF THE PEOPLE of Montana have any desire for electoral reform in the direction covered by Councilman Kennedy's bill, which practically em- braces the main features of the Ati 2 ottralian system, they must be up and doing or the opportunity ;Hi be lpst.

TIT , SAMOAN TROUBLES. A great many of the northwestern journallehave recently had the United - States engaged iny a war withGermany, but lately the. war -whoop seems to be silenced. Common sense would say that the mere thought of war with Germany on account of the Samoan troubles was as absurd an idea as anything could be. Bismark knows well enough that Germany could not afford to wage war with the United State; only the interruption of com- mercial intercourAe with America 'would nearly ruin Germany, and therefore be wishes the affair settled amicably. But in order not to lose any ground gained (although he or-.. dered Dr. Knappe, the German con- sul at Samoa, to institute relaxation of the rule of martial law), the Chancel- lor proposés a Samoan conference at terlin of the three powers concerned, • , the United States,. Germany, and England.. Consul -General Sewall ap- parently had a grievance, as he ex- pressed himself very much opposed to Germany in his report to Congress, which latter body sifted Mr. Sevvall's report in drodping his opinions and simply holding on to the facts. There is .no getting around • the fact that somebody made a great blunder. Who. it is may never, be learned perhaps, but the respective representatives at• Samoa have to suffer for it. Mr. Sewall has resigned at the request of his superiors and no doubt the same fate awaits the German and the Eng- lish consuls at Samoa. It is to be hoped that the, United States' repre- sentative to the Berlin conference goes with very strong instructions to stand up for and defend America's rights and interests. THE LEGISLATIVE ASSEMBLY. HELENA, Feb: 6.—The gambling bill prepared by the Council o special cennnittee Was passed by the -Council to -day. It provides that no games for money or other valuable consider- ation shall . be played excepting faro, round -the -table, poker, eucher, whist, \Boston and seven-up. All„persons playing other games for money are liable to 'severe punishment. Two votes only were recorded against the bill—those of Bickford and Kennedy. It is probable the House will accept this bill in lieu of its own. .louncil bill No. 8, the bill embrac- ing the features .of tlfe Australian system, is still buried in the bosom of theeleetion committee. It is likely to have hard lines in its efforts to become a law. Its passage after be- ing .introduced by the member from Jefferson, might have a tendencjto rob some of the Republican leaders in the Territory - of -their -- éheaply-ac- quired prestige. Moore has introduced his registra- tion bill in the - Reuse and the printed copies were laid on the tables of the members this afternoon. It is a weak reproduction of the bill defeated in the last Legislature. One or two of the bad features are eliminated, but ,there are several others still in it. If any decent consideration is given to the measure, these faults may be corrected, but there fare indications that in effort will be made to force it through as it stands. Whether or not the attempt will be successful is a problem that time only can solve. ' Bickford has not yet introduced in the Council his proposed bill, but it is understood he has it in course of pre- paration. Middleton's bill in relation to the drawing of juries has passed the Council. It provides that one of the p4 mission of the District Judge given in elmrt or in chambers. It also re- peals the law which prohibits County Attorneys from appearing in the Su- preme Court in behalf of their counties, butqirescribes that they iihall 'so ap- pear only on request of the Attorney General. Haskell's bill providing for' the transfer of money from the poor and road' funds to the general fund, has been defeated in the Council, not one member of that body voting in its favor. — NEWS FROM WICKES. [Special Correspondence of Tug AGE.) WICKES, Feb. 9th.,—Special gospel temperance \ meetings comnienced at this place on Sunday, the 3d inst., by Mrs. L. M. W. Owen, of Baltimore. The lady's subject on Sunday evening was \Charity\, and it was dwelt upon in an able manner and left, a great impression '-upon--all-'present. - Each evening during the week the church was full and it was a good sign that the temperance question is coining to the front. We are 'hoping Wickes will soon wheel into line on the tem- . perance question and submit to a vote of the people the question of Sunday closing. If we could get only the saloons closed from twelve o'clock Saturday night to twelve o'clock Sun- day night, it will be far better than at present. We feel safe in saying that when this . question comes before the Legislature we shall find our members supporting it. Mrs. Owen is one of the best speakers upon- this great question, which - it hasheen our privi- lege to listen to. On Friday evening she addressed a great number of peo- ple in the •I. 0. 0. F. hall. Eureka Lodge, I. 0.0. T., in whose interest the lady is here, 'held open lodge and it closed With the initiation of six, members and we are looking for a good number at our next meeting. The members entertained all who attended to listen to Mrs. Owen after her meeting with a very pleasant en- tertainment and social, and a very pleasant time all had. Too much praise cannot be given the lady mem- bers of the above lodge for the grand way in which they entertained all. A committee of the brethren of the lodge was very busy hUuciiii,ig the good things to the ladies. Mrs. Owen was the guest of Mr. and,Mrs. Starret (luring her stay at place. The meeting,came to a close on Sanday, the 10th inst. All the saloons were closed on Tuesday evening and all. who were in attendance at them turn- ed ont in full force to the meeting and they were welcome. J. R. Gilbert, W. Hill, and Tom Knight were at Helena the past week. H. IL 'Hill and, E. R. Dean were in Boulder on Thursday. Frank Blending went over to Boul- deè on Saturday. Col. W. F. Sanders was down from Helena the past week and attended the temperance meetings. Mrs. Harry Bartel has been down for about two. weeks 'kith rhetimatism.' Little Harry McIntyre is down with the same disease. 'Mrs. L. V. Swiggett has been sick for a week or more. The wife of Assistant -Superintend- ent J. R. Gilbert presented him with a young son on the 5th inst. Mother and child are doing well. The members of the A. O. U. W. gave a pleasant social ball on Thurs- day night which was largely attended and all had a very plea -Sant time. Milling is looking well around this camp.

JAMES and CHRISTINE HAGAN. ELICHARN', M. T. Feb. 9th,1889. AN ANSWER. [Cont;ibuted to Tug Aug.] WICKES, Feb. 10th.—In an editorial published in the Helena Record on the 8th inst., certain things were said of our Councilman which are untrue in fact, and which, if passed uncontm- dieted, might place him in an unenvi- able position before those unfamiliar with the actual 'circumstances... The editorial referred to was entitled \Go - ,ing back on his pledge\ and among other things contained these words: \It is quite certain that Councilman Kennedy has fully determined to dis- regard the fact that- he received the votes of the Republicans of Jefferson county in November only on the un- derstanding that he would support a registration bill in the Legislature, even though it were similar to or ex- actly the same as the one which he assassinated two years ago.\ The. _ writer, hereof had something to do with the last campaign on the Repub- lican aide, and was present at a Meet- ing of the County Republican Central Committee, which met in Wickes soon after the Territorial convention had done its good work, to consider the plan of procedure to make a success- ful issue at the polls, and also to change the nomination for Council- man if that course was deemed ad- visable after consultation. Mr. Kenne- dy was secretary of that committee and was present at the meeting refer- red to, and was called upon to make an explanation regarding his position on the old registration bill, which he 'did in an able„ tliOrough and convinc- ing apeech. He had a copy of that bill with him and pointed out the errors which he thought were in it. He was then asked if he would sup- port a proper registration bi,H if.elec- ted, and one was presered to the Council for action during the term for which he would serve. He re- plied. that he would. It was well understood that lie would not support the \Old registration bill\ or any that embodied what• he considered and therefore pointed out as its objection- able features. ,Only one of the com- mittee objected to the, motion after- wards made and adopted \that the committee heartily endorse the nomi- nation of Will Kennedy for Council- man.\ At many times afterwards, and before election, I met and talked with Kennedy, at different places, and be- fore many people, and -at no time or place did he vary from his statement made at the meeting . mentioned. It is an insult, though not intended, to' the intelligence of our people to write • that \we are not prepared - to say that he pledged himself to this effect in so many words, but certain it is that such was the statement in the papers, time and time again, until the people believed it, and Mr. Kennedy permitted the impression to go abroad uncontradicted, which amounts to practically the same thing.\ What! Contradict every false newspaper as- sertion made about ones self? Ridicu- lous! If prominent men were to do that, it would keep them so busy, that there would be no time for anything else; desidoe Mr. Kennedy made a good thorctugh and personal canvass of the colinty, not only for himsoif, but for all others oit the Republicain ticket, and so thoroughly and openly explained his views on the old regis- tration bill, that there could possibly be no occasion for further expression or contradiction. If it was assassination to kill the registration bill referred to, then for the first time in their history there are numerous Republicans in this county who respect and support an assassin. We tire desirous of harmony in the Republican party, lint we do not think it. is gained, by a Republican paper advising a Republican Council- man to \resign andgo home\ for having asserted bis manhood and independ- .ence by declaring that he had an opin- ion an one or two things contrary to that iligtated by his Party.
