Butte Republicans, in a Hopeless
Minority, Nominate an In
eligible Candidate.
General Warren Blandly Tells
Them There Is NO Show
of Winning.
A faulty Indictment--VicfOus KniGng In
Progress Among the Republicans
OF Great Falls.

BUTTE, April 8.-lSpecial. T. The republi-
cans held their convention to-day and went
through the farce of nominating candidates
for city offices. Gen. Warren, who pre-
sided, voiced the sentiment OF the conven-
3tion, by saying the republicans are in a
hopeless minority in this city. Acting in
accordance with that sentiment the conyen-
tion nominated man for mayor who is not
eligible to the position. On page 637, fifth
division of the general laws, is found the
following: "Sec. s64. No person shall be
eligible to the Office Of mayor unless he has
been resident of the city for which he may
be elected mayor two years next preceding
his election to said office.''
Mr.. McC White, the real estate man,
was nominated for mayor, and he has been
resident of this city for fourteen months.
Whether the nomination was made
through ignorance of the law or not is un-
certain. but leading republicans were bus
lily discussing the subject very soon after
the adjournment of the convention. The
affair has suspicious look about it. to say
the least. T. A. Largey was first placed in
nomination, and his name was withdrawn
on the representation of Mr.. White that
Mr.. Largey positively declined. After a
half hours recess, passed in consultation,
Mr.. White was himself nominated. Lead
ing representatives consider the situation
very unfortunate, ana the matter is the
chief topic OF conversation tonight.
The other nominees are as fellows: For
city treasurer, George Dutfett, who defeated
Pat Boland by a vote of thirty to seventeen;
for City attorney. r. w Cotter. for noice
magistrate, Henry McMurphy.
