\ Concise Report Of the Meeting Of
the State Association
Last Week
AS OUR REPORTER SAW 1T.
Extensive Plans Are Set Forth for
the Continuance of the
Struggle.

A most interesting convention was
that of the executive committee,
Montana free coinage association, in
Butte city last week. About forty
five leading men Of the state were in
attendance, and in the circle were to
be seen such men as Sen. Power, Elk.
Gov. Hauser, Maj. McGinnis, Col.
Curtis, A. J. Seligman and R. B.
Smith of Helena; B. J. Fine of Mad
ison county; J. R. Toole Of Anacon-
da; Sen. McDermott, DIR. Hough,
Col. Lloyd, Lee Mantle, Mayor Du-
gan, J. B. Read, VIM. E. Hall, Geo.
Irvine II, E. B. Howell, and Jas. b.
Lehigh Of Butte.
President Hough called the assem-
bly, to order, and delivered an ad-
dress full of logical force, at the
close of which he rendered his resig-
nation as president. The former was
unanimously indorsed, but the latter
was opposed by everyone; after
urgent appeals from leading men in
the committee not to enforce his de-
termination to resign, the chairman
withdrew his resignation. Secretary
Lehigh reported the total expendit-
ure Of s4, ,S63.1O, the amount Of
which, turned over to the national
league was s2,755. The association
had mailed 10000 pamphlets to
the citizens of eastern states.
Letters were read from Senator
Cameron and others, complimentary
to the work which the committee
has undertaken. Mention being
made of the meeting of Miners
convention to be held at San Fracis-
co, sometime during the mid-winter
fair, 1t was deemed advisable that
Montana should be represented at
said convention. Accordingly Sc
ries of resolutions were drawn up
covering the subject, empowering
the committee to appoint delegates
to the convention, furnishing them
with the proper credentials.
A letter from A. J. Warner to
DR.. Hough was then read which
displayed the zeal of that untiring
worker and outlined plan for sys-
tematic missionary work which the
league will undertake this winter.
Following this letter Messrs. Irvine
and McGinnis reported the follow
ing resolutions which were unani-
mously adopted:

age association of Montana declare
that the battle to restore silver to
its ancient place as money metal
in the coinage of our country and to
secure its free coinage at its present
ratio on an equality with gold at the
mints has just begun.
That we declare the experience Of
mankind and all the signs of the
times to warrant US in believing that
we will overcome all present oppo-
sitions and that we will ultimately
achieve success. That our duty to
our country and mankind, as we'll as
to the interests of our own state, de-
mand that we continue an active
and aggressive propaganda in be-
half Of our ideas.
That we believe that this associ-
alton is an efficient aid to this desir-
able end. And that therefore it is
our pleasure and our duty, and
should be the pleasure and duty of
every good citizen of Montana, to
continue and support and strengthen
it and to render every possible as
sistance, mentally, morally and fl
nancially to its worthy and noble
work.
That the association approve the
efforts of it's officers to efficiently
carry out the object Of its organiza-
ton.
That we ask the officers and exec
utive committee to vigorously pros
ecute a campaign favorable to the
free and unlimited coinage with the
greatest possible vigor without re-
gard to the approval or disapproval
of individuals, factions or political
parties.
The principal speakers Of the sess
ion were Sen. Power, Maj. McGin-
mis-, Messrs. Mantle, Irvine, Hall,
Caplice, Williams, Hauser and Sell
igman.
No little interest was attached to
the report of the delegate from Nei-
hart, as it appeared that this camp
has done more efficient and system
attic work, and has raised more mon
ey than any other town outside of
Butte. The delegate told of reg
ular weekly meetings for term of
over four months; of the emf
nence of the local branch as a pop
ular body, voicing as it practically
does the sentiment of the entire
community. He told of the literary
bureau and its active work, present
ing sample of the ''personal letter."
of which several thousand had been
distributed. His report was receiv

were raised repeatedly for the faith

painful silence fell on the throng
when he spoke of ''extra session.
He referred to the fact that Neihart
alone of all the districts of Montana
had prayed the Governor to call the
Legislature together, where no re-
monstrance had arisen opposing
such call. There is too much poll
tics of the old stamp in Montana, to
allow the successful prosecution of
any scheme calculated for the pub
