was J. M. Brown. the we'll known horse
man, who is reputed to be worth half q
million dollars. The other two were po-
lioemen named John Powell and Henry
Mcdowell. An attempt to raid the track
by the police was the cause of the tragic
affair. Yesterday the races were stopped

GREAT FALLS Sept. 6.-[Spscial 1-On tho
surface the republican state convention thus
far has been harmonious and satisfactory
TO the delegates, but a casual uncovering Of
tho sentiment shows distrust and lack of

ent in the gubsrnatorial nomination. Rick
ards is not the man to inspire Montanians,
and in particular those from Silver Bow
county. The very fact that Mantle. who
has always been a political enemy Of Rick
ards, controlled the delegates of this county
and voted them for Richards aroused sus-
pieion of bad faith in such degree that

though among the knowing ones there are

The sphinx-liks Couch employed his time

Col. Botkin's nomination was the result
of sympathetic move and could not be

Weed and selieman, who wished to see him
turned down. 1t finally grew into tidal
wave and they fell gracefully in line. The

blood was shown.
