IL the local campaign keeps mn its pres
ent pace this neck of woods H. going tai
sssr u September of stir and Interest. Al
ready Anaconda democrats arr up to their
Delegates tn the Democratic couvci-
ton had picked up their grip sacks
to start homcwarxit the active work Of Or
Hanizing WINS progressing i'm this city.
Headquarters were established i'm the biQ
corner roosn ON the first floor of the Nom
tana. desks were pat i'm place, the outfit
for the nsc of the central osnmittee was
secured, kilograms went flying ana the
campaign pant on business proportions
without ado or delay.
Ii was resolved at the start tn get every
body walked mp to tho Necessity of getting
Registered. Ihc office of thu registry
clerk il i'm Meals store, on First street. and
il Was not long before this place, was the
most popular resort in town. The work.
crs started ont with :, will, and the indica-
tions are that before the fifteenth OF the
month the clerks books will pretty fairly
represent the voting strength OF Ana
s.ondi:l.
Last week, at tbs. time. wl,cn the state
convention WAS in session in this city,
there were hardly more. than three hum
hands have been hard at work since then.
The clerk has had his hands full taking
care of the visitors AT his office i'm FIRST
street and the result is that, at the close of
Office hours last night, the registry covered
LILO names.
Ie VpsIity tbthet Us W
ing its slIars, of attentions. Evidently the
choice of candidates made in the county
convention il received with general favor
favor. Several of tine gentlemen are maxi
ing u formal canvass Df the county. MIR.
Thornton, the. admirable choice of the
convention for the office of state senator,
sends very favorable reports from SECTIONS
he has already visited. He has spent two
or three days i'm PhilipsburR and tho.
neiRhhorloOd in company with MIR.
Hughes, the mission oi both gentlemen
being to help rganizc the work of regis
tration In that quarter of the county.
In several instances il will In, ditlicult tai
get men to tine registry offices la Deer
Lodge county, as the cumbersome law
passed last winter ConnIels them tO make
Journeys many miles long, thus putting
them tai expense, annoyance and loss nj
time, u condition of affairs that would
have been easily avoided il the law itself
had made fair and decent provision for
the establishment of the needed registry
offices i'm the county.
The general party ticket will Inc helped
by the widespread dissatisfaction among
thc republicans of the county in regard Ia
the party's noinin for the oiiis. al
sheriff. This feeling il i'm mo- sense locaI
bat is aroused 10y the fact that tine candi
date nominated In the convention Ina
been ccNsUrcd many times during his fires
term Tor tho careless and Inefficient man
Nor in which the sllcritI's office has bsa.i
run. The action of "a recent grand jur.
i'm passing severe criticism on the man
igeInent of the ps.nitcntiary il well rr.
nlembcrs.l in the county. Many republic
cans naturally assume. that MIR. Moore
canvass il weak at the start, and tliis fac
il likely tai operate Ia the injury of the
whole republicans county ticket.
