It Is all ready for the legislature now tin
Douplas county election contest. And tin
democrats have made n icroid for thorn
selves that will R\O ! aid and comfort to al
men who have hitherto suppoited the rcpnb
Hrnn party In Us efforts to sccuio repicsen
tativo goveinmcnt , and 0110 that will cnabli
manj w ax crtng democrats to make up the !
mlmls to vote with the icpubllcans In tin
futuio. So far as the taking of testimony 1
concerned , the contest was brought to i
close jcsterday evening , nnd as soon as thi
rcporteis complete the tr.uwilpt of the ovi
ilciu'o the papeis will bo Hied with th
sccictaryof state ; at Lincoln , and this mus
bo done not later than Monday night of ncx
w cek.
With the manifestly unfair spirit that ha
maiked their action all through the procecil
ings , the contestants strung out their cas
until the A cry last minute , with the Inten
tlon of preventing the Introduction of an ,
evidence whatever on the part of the coi :
contcstecs. Hvery subterfuge known tolaw
ycrs was piactlced for the puiposo of delaj
nnd when llnally the object became appaidii
to all , the democrats proceeded boldly t
cnrry out their Intentions. So lllmsy , toe
has been the fabric woven out of the cv
dcnco adduced by the contestants that I
would seem unnecessary that n defcns
should bo made , but the contcstees will as
the legislature to extend the time , so thi :

The gieat consphacy of which so muc
had been slid has slmmcncd down to tl
fact that on the election bonds a laige
number wrio icpubllcans than domociat
nnd sample billets of the American Pi

The eastern press shows far greater iiv
tcrcst In the preservation of the Yellow
stone National park than the press of the
west. The reason for this Is not far to seek.
Newsprpcra published near the paik arc
cither Ignorant of the schemes of merce
naries or they sicrtflco futute advantages
for immediate gain The former supposition
is doubtless the correct one , for the reason
that all movements of coiporatlons to obtain
lights on park tcrrltori are carried on in
Washington with all possible socicsy.
Tlnro bills pending In congress propose
radical changes in thogrc.it imtion.il paik ,
Tlio first proposes to change the boundary
line , laklmr fiom In the north anil
west and " adding to on the cast anil
south , ostensibly to bring the cntlro park
within the boundaries ot "VViomlng. In
reality the object is to so change the lines as
to ilvo a Cooke City railroad company n
right of way along the \allois of Soda Unite
ctcuk , the Bist Foik and the Yellowstone ,
now embiaced within the park. The othei
two bills propose giving the rallioad right ol
way through these vallejs without changlm ;
the boundaries , virtually allowing thci.ill
road lo enlcr p.uk lerrltorj on the plea that
Iho road is necessary to develop mineral
propel tics adjacent to Cooke City.
These measures are vigorously attacked
by the Sun and Times of New York ami
Forest and Stream. All three denounce the
pending bills as dcsuucllvo of much of the
natural beauty of the park and vv holly unwarranted -
warranted by the local Interests at stuko.
Unlike AnjtliltiK In thaVorlil. .
"Yellowstone paik , " si.ss the Sun , "is a
mignilleent pleasure- ground , set apart for
