AT UBEI, AND MAKE TELLING
SPEECHES AT LEWIS
TOWN AND AT
MAIDEN.
GRAND TORCH LIGHT PRO-
cESSIoNS.
AT U6ET.

Hon. Allen X. Joy, Of Livingston, and hon.
5. G. Murray. OF Missoula, expound true
doctrine. Arriving at Ubet they met about
AS many Democrats and the campaign
band, who expected to hear Hon. I. E.
Collins, of Great Falls, and Hon. X. b.
Smith, of Helena, explain Democratic doc
trine. Tn Democratic central COMMITTEES
challenged the Republicans to a joint dis
cussion of the political issues of the day
and the challenge was promptly accepted.
The music was furnished by the two bands.
Hon. r. b. Smith, the great free trade ex-
FOUNDER of Montana, led off with his stere-
otyped address and was thoroughly and
triumphantly answered by Hon. Allen r.
Joy. Hon.. Il. Z. Collins then attempted
to make a few Democratic votes by show
ing under what a base system of robbery
he had made his million and a hall, and
took occasion to go out OF his way to in
suit the old soldiers and the sheep herders
OF Fergus county. He was then success
fully tiayed by the scathing and eloquent
address of Hon. s. G.. Murray. b. C..
White, OF TIBET, closed the speaking with a
few remarks for.the Democrats, which were
well received by his friends and neighbors.
The hall was crowded, some being unable
to get in returned home. The speakers
were often interrupted by questions from
the audience and from the opposing speak
ers, and the ready repartee OF the occasion,
and especially of Messrs. Joy and Murray,
will make the joint discussion at Ubet
memorable in the history OF Fergus county.
The applause was about divided, being al
ternately Republican and Democratic as
the telling hits were made on each side.
AT LEWISToWN.
Friday evening the Lewistown Republic
can Marching Club, over one hundred and
fifty strong, led by the Juvenile band, par
AIDED the streets under the command OF
Captain Kelly and Lieuts. Mason and
Worden. Besides torches the club carried
transparencies upon which were printed
many appropriate notices and designs
from which we quote the following:
"We ant use Grover and John Bull"
In God we Trust but not in the Dem
ocratic party"
Harrison and Protection"
Harrison and Cheap Groceries"
Reciprocity is now a fact"
L"Grover's boat ride up Salt river" Illus
trated.
'The path to the polls must be free."
The poor house is not the place for the
old soldier"
Grover cannot climb the Hill" in New
York"
Also many others of which the illustra-
tion formed the main feature.
During the march cheers were given for
Harrison and Reid, Governor Richards,
Hartman, and for the various Republican
nominees. Many business houses and resi-
dences were brilliantly lighted, notable
among the latter being the Watson resi-
dence on the corner OF Fifth avenue, which
was ablaze with light. When the parade
passed the residence of Chas. A. Burg, three
cheers were given with a willfor that popu-
lar candidate.
At the hall Hon. E. p. Chandler opened
the speaking with some stirring remarks.
Among other things he stated that he be.
lieved he was in the right; tha the Repub.
lican party advocates principles that are
everlastingly right, while the Democratic
party has opposed everything right. II
opposed the homestead bill, all measures
for carrying on the war and preserving the
Union. the issuing OF bonds and g~reenbacks
the tariff, Lincoln's proclamation freeing
the slaves. the establishment of the ma
tional banking system, all reconstructior
acts, the 18th, 14th, and 18th amend
ments to the constitution, and are now OPP
posing the present tariff law. After takini

Charles A. Burg, saying nat no man coul
say aught against him, and that no state

On the other hand he was foremost il

Mr.. Joy here turned his attention to tn
attacks of the ''bunco steerer' in the 10
