open bosom of the shirt exposed it in

across it lay the nerveless hand that

Fred. W. Wright, candidate for state
treasurer, on the Republican ticket, is
one of the best selections that could
possibly have been made. He is not
only a whole-souled, popular gentle
man, but will make a most efficient
officer. Mr.. Wright is now serving his
third term as treasurer of Park county.
He was appointed to that position
upon the creation of Park county out
of Gallatin, and was twice elected, re-
ceiving in both instances 200 or more
majority over any candidate on the
ticket. Mr.. Wright is a native OF
Buffalo, N. Y. He served in the war
of the rebellion and came to Montana
in 's2, residing since at Livingston.
He enjoys the confidence and esteem
of every nan in Park county, regard
less of party, and will receive a large
majority in the counties of the Vel
lowstone. He is an east side candi-
date and one worthy of your support.
See that Mr.. Wright has an x placed
opposite his name when you mark
your ballot.

1t is probable that the next legis-

the effect that no member of the associ-

his employer because his wages were
too low. If the wage-earners of this
county feel that they can entrust theii
welfare to men who are upon record in
that way, then vote for Willard and

Because the fire of the enemy has
been directed at one or two candi-
dates on the Republican ticket It'll no
reason why the whole line should not
be given attention. There is no reason
why every good Republican should
not stand by the entire ticket. Some
objection has been raised against the
candidate for superintendent OF
schools because he is a minister. We
do not think they are well grounded.
Mr.. Edwards is highly qualified for
the Office; is a gentleman OF tact and
untiring energy. He has individuality
and force of character, and, above all,
too fine a Ems of propriety to inn,
pose his views upon anyone or bring
them into his official duties. With
Mr.. Edwards in charge of school
affairs the people would have a safe
guardian and the office would be
something more than a sinecure. Let
every Republican see that an x is
placed opposite his name.

delicious sarcasm said: al had the

anti trust bill, which became a law,
and which, to use nearly Mr.. Sher-

strong as possible without being un-

Even Jim Hill, the railroad magnate,
was not inclined to give Great Falls any
encouragement in the capital fight.
He was interviewed by an enthusiastic
reporter of one of the daily papers of
that place recently, and asked if his
road had any interest in the location of
the capital of Montana. Nj. Hill said:
"No, sir. This is a matter that effects
the people of Montana, and l assume
they are entirely competent to settle it
for themselves. The only reason the
company will have for interference in
such a matter would be in defense OF
its property or business, and we trust
this occasion will never arise" Mr..
Hill has too much sagacity to give the
Falls encouragement when it stands NO

following is a fair sample. Speaking

Bozeman to a man. Newcomers thinl

These testimonials also may have
been written in the Chronicle office
but whether they were or not it is O
little consequence. Bozeman will gei
a struggling vote in this county, that j.
all. The Falls will get a few more
votes than Bohemian. The Falls senti
ment is rapidly changing for Helena
for when a man thinks the matter ovel
carefully, without prejudice, he car
come to no other conclusion but thar
a vote for either the Falls or Bozemar
is q vote for Anaconda in effect. Il
there were apostolic show for Bozemar
or the Falls securing even a place in
