For VICE PRESIDENT OF THE SANE.
LEVI P. MORTON,
OF NEW YORK.
OUR CANDIDATES,

Harrison and Morton are the men
selected by the assembled wisdom of
the republican party Of the United
States to bear the standard in the tur-
moil of political strife this fall; and a
noble color guard it is. Ben Harrison
comes from a stock thst for four gen
erations the nation has honored with
political preferment; commencing
with Benjamin Harrison one of the
signers Of the Declaration OF Indepen-
dence, a Colossus in the cause ofliberly
and human rights, through VIM. Hen,
ny Harrison, president Of the United
States in 1910, and John Scott Hsrri-
SOP, member Of congress from Ohio,
Our candidate Ben Harrison, of Indi-
ana, soldier and statesman has been
nominated by the party that has al
ways espoused the cause Of liberty
and human rights, for the position
which forty.eight years ago his grand
father was triumphantly chosen by
the people, and the success which at
tended that campaign may be accept
ed as a f%orerunner of the coming oue.
Levi Z. Morton chosen as second on
the ticket is one of the foremost men
of the great Empire State; now in the
autumn Of an active business lite, he
has at various Times been chosen as a
representative Of republican instiIu-
tons, most prominently as a member
of congress from New York and later
as minister plenipotentiary from the
United States TO france.
Aside from its excellence as to the
personality Of the candidates the tick
ct represents the two doubtful states
of Indiana and New York both O!
which are vital to democratic c
and which by this strategic more
they are deprived of. Hrrrison and
Morton is the slogan now, and with
this war cry the republicans will ad-
vance to victory as surely as the rising
of Noyember's sun.

Mindful OF Its position as the leading
city of eastern Montana, the citizens
of Miles City have determined TO spare
no expense to make this celebration IN
every respect worthy of the incident 1t
commentaries and of the people who
give it. A large sum of money has
been subscribed by the citizens for

now stationed at Fort Keogh, have
cordially Joined hands with the citi-
zens and will do all in their power to
add to the success of the celebration.
THE PROGRAMME

In the afternoon commencing at 2
o'clock there will be a match game of
base ball between MILES CITY and

race programme in detail they feel
that they can assure the public that

each rae
As soon as it IL dark enough there
will he a gorgeous display Of
FIREWORKS

ties OF the pyrotechnie art, which have
been specially ordered from the factory
for this occasion.
Usually in towns of less enterprise
and snap then MILES CITY this would
| end the festivities and visitors would
be turned adrift in the dark with a
long evening on their hands. But
that is not what we propose to do.
Having reached this stage of the pro-
gramme in safety we assure you mat

BELIEVE IN NAN.

Believe in man. nor turn away.
Lo! man advances year by year;
Time bears him upward, and his sphere
Oflife must broaden day by day.
Believe in man with large belief,
The garnered grain each harvest time
Hath promise, roundness, and full prime
For all the empty chatf and sheaf
Believe In man with proud belief:
Truth keeps the bottom OF her well,
And when the thief peeps down, the thief
Peeps back at him, perpetual.
Faint not that this or that man fell;
For one that falls a thousand rise
To lift white progress to the skies;
Truth keeps the bottom of her well.
Fear not for man, nor cease to delYe
For cool sweet truth, with large belief.
Lo! Christ himself chose only twelve
Yet one OF these turned out thief.
