connected with the ~speakership In that IL

Rarslsd as n candidate for the speaker
ship of the United States house Of repre-
sentativcs, and. while he did not shy that
hc felt at all sure of election. his conver-
sation indicated that lie thought his
chances for winning the prize was mt
least fair.

fight, although ~ light among friends.
The result must he reached 10y compro
mise. and the situation is such that no
one can have n definite idea AS to who
will win.
Ne.r York Herald Dave" Henderson,
of Iowa, as he IL Familiarity called. il given
the last place ON the list of candidates,
because he is popularity credited with the
least positive strength ON h first ballot.
His adhcrcnts say that this il a mistaken
impression, and that Colonel Henderson
is quite as stong a. amy of the other gen.
tlcmcn. with the exception of Mr.. Reed.
His distinguishing characteristic. like that
Of Mr.. Burrows. is his extreme fairness.
Shonld he fail To secure the speakcrship
he will mo- doubt he rewarded with an inn
portant chairmanship, i'm keeping with
his merits and honorable service i'm the

-. Louis Gtobe-DemOcrdt We do not
believe there il room to doubt the qualifi-
cations for the Office of any of the aspi-
rants to the ~speakership. Mr.. Reed, of
Maine. the only eastern man i'm the con-
test, has already served II years I'm the
house; Mr.. Mckinley, of Ohio. has been a
member of that body for the same length
of time; Mr.. Cannon of Illinois. for 10
years; Mr.. Burrows, for 10 years, and Mr..
Henderson, of Iowa, for six years. All of
them have been on prominent committees,
and all of them have taken a leading part
in the dcliber alton and discussion on every
important measure which has come before
the house during their service. So far as
regards knowledge of political issues and
parliamentary skill each would the fully

HIS LATEST SCHEME.

Mr.. Arkell, one of the proprietors of
Jutfye, has a great head for advertising
schemes. His latest proposition is to
pay the government SlOO.OOO u year for
the privilege of printing advertise
ments on the back of postage stamps.
Mr.. Arkell was somewhat ~astOunded
when he learned that an English syndi-
cate had offered u nj million for the
same privilege. Advertising fiends
have already made life burdensome to
many of us. but Imagine the horror of

The Anaconda standard. [volume] (Anaconda, Mont.) 1889-1970, 1889-11-24
YESTERDAYS r

Heroic action checked the fire which,
at noon yesterday, threatened To in
volve the great Anaconda mine in
ruin. Word received i'm this city last
night that the fire WAS fully under con-
troll and the mine itself amply defended,
was as welcome news rs ever reach the
people Of Anaconda.
Aside from all considerations of per
sOnal account tn residents of this city,
it was a grateful relief tn the people to
be assured that the splendid property
n Butte had escaped destruction and,
although they may not have reached
him in distant 1t. Paul, words of
warmest congratulation were uttered
in behalf of Anaconda's most honored
citizen, to whom, after the wreck of the
smelter and the painful days of physi-
n prOstratiOn, n destruction of the
property i'm Butte would have seemed
vertically like an affective providence.
The deplorable loss of life in yester-
days fire finds it's only compensation i'm
the fact that, under ordinary circum-
stances, it might easily have been ten
fold worse. Above all else. sympathy
will go forth in their behalf, and the
heroic conduct of these unfortunate
men will he held i'm memory by all who
admire courage and who honor those
who fearlessly answer the call to duty
i'm the presence of danger and ut the
risk of life itself.
