OF the Ancient Order of the Mystic Shrine,
with cleaning lances and brilliant apparel,
on foot, in carriages and bestriding gaily
caparisoned camels, wound their way

OF bunting, illuminated with pyrotechnics
Twenty thousand people gathered along the
line OF march and the grand parade dis
banded after having been reviewed by
Illustrious Potentate Briggs from the
Paxton hotel balcony. Then came grand

Tho Borden Murder Mystery.

FALL RIVER, Mass, Aug. 15.-City Mar
shall Hilliard said this morning, regarding
the criticism by the press of the condition
OF the Borden case. that the newspapers
did not have the facts disclosed at the in
quest. and that the case depended entirely
on circumstantial evidence; that Lizzie
Borden had not been imprisoned in haste
or without a full understanding of the cir
cumstances. An important member Of
the Borden family said this morning that
the honor of the Bordens was not to be az
fected by the police suspicion, perhaps
resting justly on Lizzie Borden. It was
not true that the Bordens had ever placed
stumbling block in the way of the law,
and no member of the family would in any
way hamper the police investigation. The
statement that fifteen millions of Borden
money would be used in baking the au-
thorities was untrue and ill-advised.
Single Industry in Whatcom County.
FAIRHAvEN, Aug. 15.-[Special. THE
astonishingly rapid development of the
cedar shingle industry is well illustrated
in this county, which now produces about
thirteen car loads daily. which is little
over one-fourth of the shingle product Of
the state. New mills now in course of
erection and additions to the equipment
of others will soon result in increasing the
product to at least 1900 900 daily, valued
at s.. go per 1000. The largest mill in the
county, that of the Washington Cedar
Single Company, owned by Chicago
capitalists, is now turning out 800. 900
daily, which are shipped East over the
Canadian Pacific as fast as cars can be OBJ
tanned. Just at present there is dearth
of cars, owing to the demand for them at
Vancouver for the transportation of tea
from Japan.

The Helena independent. [volume] (Helena, Mont.) 1875-1943, 1892-10-05

The young men Of Anaconda have
formed a capital club which win o o
start out on a crusade for votes for that
interesting town. We are informed that
the club will be handsomely uniformed
and will create n sensation wherever ii
goes. Suggestions for an appropriate
uniform are invited. We beg to call the
attention of the young gentlemen TO the
very careful description of the regula-
ton garb in the American cyclopedia.
1t says: ''The general color in the
young Anaconda is olive brown; on the
temples, between two lines of pure
black, is a wide yellow band extending
obliquely from tho eye to behind the
angle of the mouth; the back presents
large oval disks Of deep black, disposed
in two series alternating with each
other, and occasionally coalescing; along
each side is a single or double row OF
black rings contrasting finely with the
yellow brown color; the color beneath is
ochre yellow and black quadrangular
spots, isolated or continent"
A uniform like this, set off with COP
per and green caps, would take the state
by storm, and there would be no mis-
taking where the crusaders came from.
We understand the Helena Sapphire
club will entertain the visitors at one of
their famous prickly pear dinners.

THE WEALTH. Err.
THOU SHALT NOT GARBLE,

The esteemed Anaconda Standard is
too good a newspaper to be guilty of
that most despicable of all vices-gar-
bling. Yet here is SO glazing a case of
it that it should not be allowed to pass
unnoticed. The Standard of Tuesday
says: "The official organ of the Ancient
Order of United Workmen for Montana
has lately printed some interesting sta
tistics which are significant just at this
time because, while they we're not
originally intended as a contribution to
the discussion Of the capital question,
they have a direct bearing on that issue.
These figures and the facts which they
support are quoted from the October
Issue of the Workman on this page of
Standard this morning. They establish
in a practical way the fact that, to all
intents and purposes, Butte is essen
TALLY the central point of traffic and
travel convenience, as far as exit or
entry is concerned, for the entire state.''
Here is the article as quoted by the
Standard from the Workman:
The mileage and per diem paid to the
representatives. to the grand lodge, A. o. y.
W.. held at Great Falls last month
amounted to $93l.5 80. This mileage puid tt
representatives WAS based on 10 cents Del
mile travelled one way and So per diem fol
two days. The following cities in Montan,
were not represented: Glendiye, Milel
City, Forsyth, Bozeman, Lswistown, Vir.
ginia City. Twin Bridges, Chinook, Colum
bia Falls and Kalispell. If the above eitiel
were re represented the mileage and per dien
would have amounted to the large sum Of
ST., 300. If the grand lodge would meet a
Missoula, Bozeman, Dillon or Livingston
the mileage would amount to nearly III
sane. The chairman of the grand lodg
finance coElmittss prepared a table show
ing the mileage and per diem of representa-
tives to a grand lodge session, if held i
Butte, would be less than half that amount
or only 1924. provided that all the lodge
were represented. This shows that til
geographical center of Montana. as far q
transportation is concerned, is Butte, nj
the grand lodge 30 decided at the last sea
sion by making Butte the place OF annut
session. This will be a saving to the gran
lodge of over 5000 annually if that bod
meets in Butte hereafter.
And here is the article as it actual
