MiNY CITIZENS APPROVE.
The N",cment for "a NOn-Partisan City
Government Gaining Ground.

The M",cment for "a Non-Partisan City
Government Gaining Ground.
There was a good deal Of talk on the
streets yesterday on the subject Of the
citizens movement, and it is perfectly
clear now that the idea has taken deep
root, and is shared by men of all parties.
1t was said by many that the notion was
originated by II. p. Rolfe some time
ago, and that his large interests in and
around Great Falls naturally make him
favor any plan for tie better government
of the city, as he suggested in his paper
last evening. Mr.. Rolfe's great influence
in the community renders his support
almost an essential to the success of the
movement. and for this reason the pro-
mot+rs of a non partisan city govern
ment are glad to count on his co opera
ton.
Only two men were found by TRIBUNE
reporters yesterday who are not in favor
of a coalition of all parties in municipal
affairs. These were Cashier Wilt of the
Merchants National bank and Hon.
L. Il Collins. Both of these gentlemen
based their objections on the same
ground-that of party integrity. They
SAID that they believe in party lines in
all politics, and have no use for citizens
tickets
Among the men not previously men
toned who said that they are in favor
of a citizens ticket were III. o. Chowen,
\. h. Dickerman, Il. W. Cooley, f. G..
Maclay, Matt Dunn, Frank Atkinson.
Judge Huy, Ira Myers, Otto S~choenfeldt,
and many others.
Speaking of candidates the following
names are being mentioned for mayor:
John l.. Harris, II. S. Ford, w. j. Win
tiers, II. p. Rolfe, II. T.. Brady, and Don
l.. Willard.
For city attorney f. c. Parks, j. b.
Leslie. NJ. M. Lyter, w. n. Fletcher, and
G. w. Pomeroy.
For city treasurer, C. II. Clark and
Dan Ledgerwood.
For police magistrate, +. NJ. Merrill,
=. Fl. Hughes and VIM. Bole.
There seemed to be a pretty general
impression that any of these men would
make good city officials, and that, which
ever of these might be selected by the
people in mass meeting assem- bled, the
city affairs would be sure to be properly
and efficiently looked after during their
term of Office. 1t is expected that a
call for a grand mass meeting signed by
the leading members of all political par
ties will be issued early this week.

he left Kentucky when quite a boy and
became a traveller. While at school he
read the account of Lewis and Clarke of
their journey through the northwest, and
then determined that he would some
day follow in their footsteps. In 1896
he found himself with a small party Of
traders making his way up the river

where Fort Benton now stands. There
was not a white man in the country, but
the Indians were kind and friendly and
he had many romantic adventures
among the dusky natives of the wild
region. But it was lonely and dreary
for ID civilized man, and with some of his
companions he crossed the mountains to
