After having read last week’s Mon- tanian and Chronicle it is very ovideut that the Great Galls Tribune has changed its opinion of the Moutaua Stock Association and the people of Teton county, as will be seen by tho following: A well-informed and representative citizen of Teton county who is in the city denies that there is auy such feeling against the stock association in that county that it is difficult to secure conviction of a cattle thief whose guilt is proved, but be st that the association’s methods Canvass of State’s Vote. Hirshbers: Helena, Dec. 2!—Yesterday’s can­ vass of the return in tho election, by the state board of cauvassors, showed. I hat tho total yoto cast for associate justice of tho supreme court was 55,- 3G0, while the total vote for represen­ tative iu congress was nearly 2,000 short oi this number—the exact lig ures being 53,324. ■ Tho canvassing ¿board was busy with die returns for several hours yesterday, and its work could not bo com plot ed because of the fact that the returns ou tho vote for and against the constitutional amendment changing tho terms of county com­ missioners from four to six yours had not been sent- in by the ciork-s of four of the counties, the missing returns being those for Cascade, Madison, Sdvor Bow aud Valley. The figures ou tho vole by counties are given iu tho appended taole: Brothers Club Càie O L IVER HEAD, Prop.
