WASHINGTON, April 15.-By tomorrow
night Mt o'clock, it is more than probable
that Sanders and Power will occupy seats
in the United States senate as fraudulent
senators from Montana. The vote will be
taken at s o'clock. and as there are several
separate propositions it is more than likely
that an hour will be consumed in settling
the case after debate closee w. A. Clark
said to-day that he thought there might be
enough republicans who would vote to send
backithe whole case to prevent Sanders and
Power from being seated. He does not ex-
pect that any of the republicans will vote
for Maginnis and himself.
Senator Morgan in his speech to-day said
that the admission of Sanders and Power
would bring the senate into abject con-
tempt, also that the democratic maiorities
in Butte and Helena ought to bring the re-
publicans to a realization of the feeling in
Montana. and that the only object the re-
publicans had, whether right or wrong
seemed to be the seating of two mon who
will be called United States Senators. Mon

3. w. May, who has been active in secur-

E. Dodson, of Livingston, is in WASH

Senator Allen, Of Washington, says that
the silver bill which will be passed will
mean practically unlimited coinage.
The Butte election has had a depressing
effect on Montana republicans here, and
they attribute it in large degree to the
defeat of Lee Mantle in the republican SEN
atorial caucus last winter, and the anger of
the West Side republicans over the selection
of two Helena men for the senate. One of
Mr.. Csrfer's friends says that gentleman
will NOW positively decline to be candi-
date fer denomination, as he recognizes the
claims of the West Side to representation
here. Mr.. Carter, it is understood. will
urge the nomination of his friend Mantle

The Victory Over the Butte Corruptionists
Inspires a Poet
WASHINGTON, April 15.-The Montana
election case was taken up to-day and Nor
gan addressed the senate. He referred to
the recent democratic successes in Helena
and Butte as a response to the attempted
fraud in seating the republican claimants.
If the election, he said, had gone the other
way there would have been no trouble in
referring the case back to the people. Now
he supposed that was impossible. He de-
clared that if Montana were now to come
asking for admission as state with all
that filth clinging TO her skirts, she would
be kicked from the threshold and he IN
sisted that no man had right to claim a
seat as senator from Montana unless he
could show a certificate from the
governor of that state. Certificates had
to be signed by the governor and counter.
signed by the secretary of state. The re-
publican claimants had not ouch certifi-
Gates. The democrats had certificates
signed by the governor but unfortunately
not countersigned by the secretary of the
state. 1t would not be long. he said, until
the little cloud in Montana, which seemed
no bigger than a mans hand. would sweep
like cyclone and tear the republican party
all to fragments.
Daniel argued against the majority re-
port. Vance created amusement by reading
the following telegram received from Butte
this morning.
Hurrah for honest c;Uizens
Who yindicate the right,
Hurrah for law and liberty,
The people won the fight.
Republican corruptionists
Went weeping to their fate;
tor the voters placed the brand
IjDDn foil ho tako
The monrners speak in whispers;
There's craze upon the door;
The g. q. p. was killed
By stealing Precinct thirty-four.
MIR. Hoar said that as he understood the
facts, the democratic majority in Butte.
which year ago WAS 800, the republicans
had reduced to about $50, and at precint 81
there was not single voter left. All of
those apparent voters had gone like last
years snow bank.
Mr.. Vance-My information is entirely
different. Butte gave republican major
ity last year. and there has been great
turn over" on account Of subsequent pro-
ceedings."
Without concluding his speech. Daniel
yielded for n motion to adjourn. After an
agreement that the vote would be taken at
o'clock tomorrow the senate adjourned.

chase monthly 100000 Dances of silver:

changes in the sugar schedule.

change in carpet wools, but the sugar
schedule, it is believed, has been revised.
