ABOUT G. l.. FISK.
tie Was Discharged Because He Was Not
Good Carpenter.

lie Was Discharged Because He Was Not
a Good Carpenter.
A few days ago man named Charles
L. Fisk published an affidavit in which
he swore that he was carpenter and had
been discharged by the Anaconda COM
pany (Castner Coal Company, where he
was working because he had stated that
he intended to vote for Helena for the
capital.
Yesterday Mr. A. Cunningham, man.
ager of the United States Coal Washing
company visited The TRIBUNE office and
said his attention had just been called to
the remarkable affidavit. He desired to
say that the affidavit was false in two
particulars. First, Fisk was not en-
ployed by the Anaconda company or
Castner Coal company, but by the Wash
ing company, which had a contract for
putting up the plant. Second, he was
not discharged because of his capital
proclivities, for no one in authority
knew or cared what they were. He was
discharged because his work was not
he only cutting six mortices
per day, while competent carpenters cut
fifteen. Fisk had only been employed
TWO or three days. At the time Fisk was
discharged by the foreman two others
we're also discharged for the same rea-
ION. One Of them stated that he was
lot carpenter, but wanted work and
'sked to be put on as a laborer and was
,iven job.
These are the facts in the case.

"The volume of business done this

some ask l0c.; 95a for Electrolytic and
$40 to $50 for Casting copper.

amount on Wednesday, advancing the
following day %. 3D., and closing today
at f4l %. Cd. for spot and .e4l los for

THE OUTLOOK VERY HOPEFUL
According, to POpulist Predictions
Robert B. Smith. Speaks at
the Opera House.
Dan Mckay, o. NJ. Holmes, Director
Hogan Of the A. X. U. and
Charles Lane Speak.

The Black Eagle band attended the
populists Of tho city to the opera house
Thursday, where for two hours several
Of the most eloquent orators in Montana
expounded the doctrines Of the third
party.
o. M. Holmes of the county central
committee called the meeting to order,
and after referring to the facts that nine
out Of every ten of the 100000 people
Of the United States were in distress as
a result Of mistake of Christ in Great
ion or OF man in government, and alleg-
ing that democrats and republicans re-
fused to jointly discuss issues with the
populists, introduced Dan Mckay as
chairman.
Mr.. Mckay ably and lucidly discussed
the relative merits Of the three parties,
referring to the votes in congress on
silver measures. Director Hogan Of the
American Railway union, citizen of
Butte, was then presented and devoted
his remarks to politics as regards labor.
Laborers can no longer be relegated to
the position of ''voting CATTLE" II am
now under $1,000 bonds to appear before
Federal Judge Woods of Chicago, and

Judge Woods had acquitted "Blocks Of
Five" Dudley. He scored Harrison,
Cleveland and Marquis George M. Pull
man and detailed the great Pullman |
strike, applying it's lessons.
Robert B. Smith alleged the inconsist-
ency Of the state democratic and repub-
lican platforms. He referred to the rec
ords Of the two old parties, denounced
the clause that he claims Hartman in
troduced to prevent the payment OF GUS
toms in silver, and dwelt strongly on the
fact that Hartman would vote for Reed
for speaker. and Corbett could not over
come the majority for gold in his party.

The Helena for the capital papers have
not as yet taken the trouble to state
that a Helena for the capital club has

reason that none has been organized and
the lie would be too transparent. They
have not mentioned the name of a single
business man in Butte who is for Helena,
for while there are few Of them the
number is 30 ridiculously small that they
would appear numerically insignificant.
The fact is Helena has not peg on
