A Washington dispatch says Hon.
d. B. Lucas will be a candidate for
reelection to the Legislature, and
that he will be opposed by VIM. T.
Rider, who is a Kenna man. Last
term it was a Camden fight for the
Legislature to control the election of
q. S. Senator, this year the same
rounds will have to be fought over
for Kenna. The people will soon
see that they have little voice in the
choice of candidates for the Legisla.
ture, but that it divides itself up be.
tween two factions to control the U.
S. Senatorshlp, and they can take
their choice between the two; even

claims, fitness aud popularity lie in

leaders, struggling for the highest
Office within the gift of the peoples
representatives in legislative session
assembled, can dictate the choice of
candidates for their own ends, why
can they not go further and make

we said. AS soon as Mr.. Camden or

was it, Why don't the Democratic
papers publish it with corrections

A Montana Union Engine Sets Fire to a
Pile at MeaderviIIe.
Yesterday about noon sparks from q
Montana Union locomotive set fire to the
wood-pile belonging to the Boston & Mon
tana Copper Company at Meaderville.
The pile in which the fire started contains
several hundred cords. which is thrown
down loosely, and lies along both sides of
the track, beginning at a point about 100
yards north OF the works.
The hose on hand by the company was
not sufficient to reach the fire from the
company's pump, and accordingly word
was telephoned to Frank Thomes in the
Court House here to send the company one
OF the trucks belonging to the Butte Fire
Brigade. Chief Thomes did not feel
safe in complying with this request,
but sent word that they could
have three lengths of hose, which was
sent for without delay and used with effect.
The addition enabled the fremen of the
Montana Company to get the fire eventu-
ally under control, though, the cordwood
being as dry as tinder, it was some time
before much headway was made in ex-
tingnishing the flames. Agang OF men were
Immediately put to work removing the
wood at point several yards in advance
OF the flames, in order to stay their pro-
gress. The Montana Union track was also
damaged, the ties being burned out for a
distance OF about seventy-five feet, and two
rails completely drawn out Of shape by the
intense heat. thus OBTAINING three locomo-
tiyes which had been doing duty on the
hill. After the fire had been gotten under
control by the firemen a Montana Union
wrecking train was dispatched to the scene,
and soon repaired the track sufficiently to
allow work on the road to move along as
usual.
