THE. M O N T A N I A N . Published Every Friday Evening at Choteuu Choteau Co., Montana. 1 1 S. M. CORSON, Editor. FRIDAY, NOVEMBER IS, 1892. Thanksgiving- Proclam a tion. . T he S tate o f M ontana , ] '■ E xecutive O ffice > H elen a , November 9,1892. j Whereas, The president of the United States has appointed Thursday, Novem ber 24th, as a day of thanksgiving; and Whereas, We have abundant reasops for observing a custom so long estab lished. Now, therefore, I, Joseph K. Toole, governor of the state of Montana., do hereby recommend that on that day labor generally be suspended and that every one in his own way and according to his own convictions, make proper ac knowledgment .to the creator of the world for a 1 that ho possesses or enjoys, and forget not wherever you can, to alleviate the suffering of the sick and lend a helping hand to the poor. In testimony wjiereof, I have hereunto set my hand ami caused to be affixed the great seal of the state of Montana- Done a t the city of Helena, the capital of the said state of Montana, this ninth day of November, A. D., 1892. By the governor: [Seal.] (Signed), Jos. K .T oole . Attest— (Signed), L. R otwjtt , Sec relay of State. T iie official count of (he voles in each county must be made williin the 10 days following ilie clecLion. To-day is the last day for the count)' canvassing boards and bill few have completed the lipal count; some will only begin to Jcanvass the voles of the several precincts in their counties (o day, but. it is sale to say none will let it pass. The unolllcial returns show the election of the entire re publican national, and state tick ets, also that the legislature will be republican, at least, on joint ballot. In Choteau county the democrats concede everything but the sherilf, clerk of the court, and one commissioner--nlmost. a clean sweep for the republicans. Some of these may yet lie gathered in to the republican fold on official count, bill., as it is, Old Choteau. not long since the democratic stronghold of the territory of Mon 'tana, is now the banner republi can county of Lhe state. She will have a republican set ofjnembers in the house and senate, and if <Ji vided into three counties, she can return three set of republican sen- a tors and members of the lower house. T he city of Great Falls register ed 1919 votes, Ca.-ode county 132S. Total, 3247. Of 4his num ber Great Falls received 1759, only 135 votes over one-half of those in the county. Outside of tlie county she received 1020 vole®, making 2779 in all, and giving her Jfil'ih place with about 4,000 votes less than the next highest place. Truly Great Falls was not in if any more than to keep Helena from secur ing the prize this time and delay ing legislation on the location of .the other state institutions for two years. T he democrats and populists charge the republicans with mak ing milionaires and tramps by their high tariff principles. Judg ing from the last low tariff period in the United States the demo cratic idea made paupers and tramps instead. Four Historic Parallel-. ■ ' _____ i (Anaconda Standard.) , The two Oleveland-Harrison contests recall similar campaigns in-the past. In 1796. John Adams defeated Thomas Jefferson, but when the same men ran again in 1800 the result was reversed. That was.the beginning :,of the demo cratic party which remained in power until 1824 when Andrew Jackson, John Quincy Adams, Henry Clay and William L. Craw ford entered for the race. There being no choice by the people, the election rested in the house of rep resentatives, in which a deal was made whereby th6 presidency was given to Adams, who made Clay- his secretary -of state. This was what John Randolph called “the union of the Puritan and blackleg,1’ which so angered Clay that he challenged Randolph and the two fought a duel. In 1828 Adams was renominated and again ran against Andrew Jackson, who beat him even worse than his lather had been beaten by Thomas Jef ferson. Martin Van Buren was the next victim to be beaten bv a man 4 . whom lie had beaten. In 1S36 he was elected over William Henry Harrison. Four years later the two tried it again, and Harrison beat Van Buren worse than any other nominee had been beaten up to that time. Next come the two Oleveland- Harrison campaigns. Beaten *by Harrison in 1888 Cleveland tries it on again with his former antag onist: ami is elected by the largest popular and electoral vote in the history of the country. It A l l Depends. “What kind of a man is he— good, bad. or indifferent?” “Well, that, depends a good deal on who tee(ei;s on the other end of the plank with him.” “JLIow so, sir?” “Well if you size him up along side of Judas Iscariot he looms up middling fair, but'when you come' to sit him down between such fel lows as you an’ me, Judge, he does dwindle terrible surprise’—he does, for a fact.”—Texas Siftings.'
