through the plate glass without FIRST per-
foratine a frame building, a brick build
ing and a bill board. The entire chain
OF circumstances point to the ire
sistiple conclusion that one man who
turned the corner of Sixth avenue and
took a shot at somebody in front Of Candi-
date Jockeys building; and that he missed
his mark, much to the satisfaction of the
man who was shot at, but greatly to the
damage of the property and feelings Of Mr..
Jockey. The city council was asked to pay
for the broken glass;. The council de-
clined. Had the council assented it would
have placed the city in a position where
everyone could demand to be reimbursed
for any damage to property inflicted by
burglars IN an effort to break into houses;
or for glass broken by any offender of any
grade who might shoot at any ono while
trying to escape. 1t was some time after
this refusal by the counoi that Mr.. Jockey
had painted on the window the following:
This plateRlass wal broken by a bullet
while the police were pursuing criminals.
The great city Of Helena refuses to replace
or pay for the glass"
The city had a legal struggle with MI.
to pay his taxes, claiming that the ASSESS
ment was not legally made. etc. Mr..
Jockey went into court about it. The city
went with him. The case was fought
thtough the district court aud the supreme
court. The city won all the way through.
Mr.. Lookoy, after the supreme court had
decided against him. came up to pay his
taxes. He asked the council to relieve him
of the penalty exacted for not paying
promptly, and also not to insist on his pay
ing the $500 expended for extra counsel
fees by authority of the city council that
was in Office during Mayor Kleinschmidt's
administration The present city council,
to whom the request was preferred. insisted
on the payment of the delinquent penalty
and the $500 counsel fees. This was early
in the present year. II was after this that
to the sign on the broken window was added
the following: Its officials nave not missed
an opportunity to harass and rob Dick
Jockey"
Mr.. Jockey was involved in other litiga-
ton with the oitv. In June of last year
City Treasurer Walker advertised for sale
$fS, 200 of warrants on the general FUND and
600 on the fire fund, to pay the salaries
of officers and employees of the city. Mr..
Jockey enjoined tho city officers from dis
posing of these warrants, on the ground
that the city had no authority to do il.
The courts again decided in favor of the
city, and Mr.. Jockey had to pay the costs.
Incidentally ii may be mentioned that MIR.
Jockey refused to pay his assessment for
opening Lawrence street until forced to

JUDGE FLEIsCHER'S LOYALTY.

Some Wcl1 KNOWN Facts and a Little
Inside History.
Some ill-advised "friend of Floisoher''
comes out in an article denying that Judge
Fleisoher had threatened to run independ-
emit or bolt the ticket if the nomination OF
police magistrate was not conferred on
him.. The article says that Judge Fleisoher
"conduoted himself honorably and as an
upright and loyal republican in the contest
before tho convention, and in consenting to
the use of his name declared again and
again that he would abide by tho result,
whether Judge Gage or any other candidate
became the nominee" 1t is a we'll known
fact that Judge Fleischer not only meant
to run independent in cnse he was not nom
mated, but 1t is no Be cret that he had looked
up the law bearing on the subject of certi-
t~ication of nominations to the CITY clerk
when made otherwise than by a regular
party convention. Judge Fleischer's eff
forts to capture the nomination date back
candidate then. but the honor won't to
Judge Gage. Judge Fleischer. in talking
of the matter later. said he had been re-
fused the nomination because. with Mayor
Kleinsohmidt running, there would be too
many Germans on the ticket" Tho judge
hos boon nursing his disappointment ever
since. and HIS talk of running independent
this spring unless he got the nomination
was 80 public that the news of his selection
by the convention on Thursday. was re-
ceived down tow with incredulity by those
who knew of his determination. Many In
dependent republicans were heard to e1-
press the opinion yesterday that a patty
convention had no right to even consider
the candidacy of a man who had made
known his intention of running independ-
emit in order to bulldoso his party into
giving him the nomination. There is a
little bit of inside history in connection
with the nomination of Judge Fleischer
that is known to some of the delegates. but
not generally to those who were not men,
bers of the convention. Before the con.
v~ention met it had been given out that
there must be a German Oh the republican
ticket. Two names were presented, Carl
kleinschmidt. Jr., for city treasurer. and G..
w. Fleischer for police magistrate. The
nomination of a candidate for city
treasurer came ahead of that
for police magistrate. On the informal
ballot for city treasurer Tom B. Miller Got
thlrty-one. Carl Kleinschmidt fifteen. and
twenty-four votes were scattered. Some of
the scattering" were votes which Mr..
kleinschmidt expected but didn't get. 1t
was believed that there were enough Klein
schmidt votes scattered around to have
Kept Miller from boing nominated on the
formal ballot had they been added to Mr.,
kleinsohmidt's fifteen. Had this been done
on the first formal ballot, and had Mr..
klelnschmidt been kept in the race and
later on received the nomination, it would
have destroyed the chances of Judge
Fleischer for tho other position. In order
TO Keep that place open to Judge Fleischer.
II was necessary to prevent Mr.. Klein
schmidt being nominated for oitv trens-
urer. Mr.. Kleinschmidt was not nomi-
mated because Judge Fleischer's frienls
didn't want it.

ONE CONTINUOUS KICK
What Gave Many Members Of the
House Bad Impressions Of
Helena.
Representative Jockey Found
Fault With All Their Pet
Measures. F."
Some Facts and History About he
Flcischor Nomination. Eek Marshal
Sims Hard at w York.

Richard Hockey was a member OF the
last house of representatives of Montana.
Outside of Lewis and Clarke county there
were forty-seven osher members. When
these forty.seven members packed their
grips and left for home after the session
was over, very few took with them my
pleasant memories Of Helena. and many
carried away feelings OF positive antipathy.
These feelings were enRendered by the per-
sistent naRRine that pretty nearly every
one OF their bills met with at the hands of
Representative Jockey. Mr.. Jockeys OBJ
j~ectlons were to appropriation bills. to
bills carrying appropriations, and to bills
which carried no appropriation. On the
GLASS of bills carrying appropriations Mr..
Jockey preached the impoverished condi-
tion OF the state treasury until
he conveyed the impression shat
Montana was on the verge of
bankruptcy. The same sermon was
preached on every occasion, until most of
the members know it by heart. 1t will be a
difficult matter for Mr.. Jockey to find one
bill carving an appropriation that was de-
feated by reason of his arguments. The
members who favored the bill voted for it
In spite OF the condition of the states
finances" and then got mad at Mr.. Jockey
in particular and ut Helena in general. for
his opposition. Mr.. Jockeys objections
we're not confined to bills carrying appro-
priations. Other bills involving no ex-
pondlture were made to take the witness
stand and give the reasons and excuses for
their existonoe. All this was very annoying
to the authors of the bills. It began with
the beginning of the session and ended with

The feeling that this engendered is best
evidenced by the remark made yesterday
by a prominent and influential gentleman.
a resident of an eastern county, who snid:
II want to see if the people of Helena will
endorse Mr.. Jockeys action in tho legis-
lature by %electing him Mayor Of Helena.

tubes required no repairing, while
throughout no smoke was generated
the Russian steamers on the Caspian
and the locomotive engines in the
neighboring territory have for many
years employed oil for fuel, and a tor
pedo boat in England used it with
some success more than four years ago
The lanes Brand, to which reference
has already been made, employed it for
three days during a v,yage across the
ocean from Dartmouth. 1t is said that
she is the largest steel tank steamship
ahoat. On the other hand, in some
French experiments, out of the ten

bic the protection that might be gwen
TO them on a torpedo boat, eight were
exploded by conclusion after a series
of dozen shots h.d been fired at the
plate. This, however, concerns the
employment of oil on war vessels rather
than its use in the merchant marine,
The advantages Of oil will be clear
from what has been said of the various
experiments The use of refuse petro-
leum, which stands a fire test OF from
800 to $50 degrees, makes the fuel
practically safe under all ordinary con.
dltions, with the precautions tor tank
storage which can be taken. Again, tc

only about half the weight or bulk o
oil is required so that for a gwen voy
age this great gain is made both OF
weight and space, or, in a war ship, her
radius of action IS prOportlOnaIly In
creased. That there is some additional
danger under intense heat arising from
the calamity of fire or from negligence
or accident, or imperfect apparatus,
may be conceded, bat an official re-
port in our own navy is that as to stor-
age there is now "no more danger with
petroleum than with any other eX-
plosive." The advantages Of carrying
fewer fremen, with their belongings and
quarters, and of giving very much
easier work to those that are employed,
since there are no tubes or CRATES to be
cleaned and no ashes to be put over,
board, is very obvious. The absence
of smoke is grateful, and on a torpedo
boat might be OF much advantage in
hostilities, while the rapdity and ease
of fueling at sea is another point for
consideration Thus far, however, the
question of cost has been one of prime
importance in retarding the general use
of petroleum in the commercial marine,
particularly as the resort to 1t would
make a heavy draft upon the supply
and thus farther increase the cost.

A good story comes from the Mana
tee River. A man named Westfeld
had a quarrel with his wife and they
decided to separate, dividing their
household goods between them. West
field took his portion of the goods to
his boat, but after thinking awhile over
the matter, decided that his wife had
the best of the bargain, which so en-
ragged him that he took an axe aud
went back to the house and broke up
her portion. The woman swore out a
warrant for him next day. and West
field engaged a promising young at
torney of Braidentown to defend him.
After investigating the case the lawyer
decided that his client was in bad
box, so he advised hin to make up
with his wife and Try to stop the prose-
Cution. This the man succeeded in
doing, but the county authorities re-
fused to let the matter be dropped. So
the lawyer then advised him to kldnap
his wife and baby and sail to Cnnabel
Island.
The matter was arranged for the next
night. The woman was escorted to
the boat, where her husband was await
ing her, by the lawyer and constable
whom he had engaged to assist him,
The lawyer and constable then returned
to the house for the baby, but by
mistake they got another woman's baby,
and the mistake was not discovered
until the boat was well on its way t.
Cinnabel. The man was afraid to re-
turn for the right baby, thinking that
he would be arrested and prosecuted.
This happened several days ago, and
the woman whose baby was stolen will
not reconcile herself TO the exchange
and proposes to have the young lawyer
prosecuted for kidnapping, He is in a
terrible state of mind aud swears that
he will never practice law again
