LIES KNOCKED sTIy1.

tomlsss by the speaker with statemsnts
that are proved By the county records IL
comparison. The speaker rsferred 70 the
systsm Of TAXATION In Philipsburg. which
h identical with that Of Auaeouda Of any
other city o. town In the state. Il doss
not follow that any lot In block should
b Of equal value. Take for instance the
block ON the south side Of Broadway In
Philipsburs between Nonteorussy and
Sansoms strssts. Ths north half Of that
block 70 sssssssd at Q7.900, while the
south half b assssssd at e2,eoo. an aver.

strsst. The south half OF the block in
which the First National bank is situstsd
10 sssssssd ss ee.7oo. a. IN average Of no
per lot, while the north half 10 assessed at
1900, an average Of 900 per lot. Accord
ing to Hslsna's argument this 10 all right
In Philipsburg and elsewhere, but 10 all
wrong In Anaconda. The fact 10, II 10 al

E. u. Tower was the next speaker and
his remarks were equally applsuded to
those Of the hrst speaker. Mr.. Tower ex-

self he felt In duty bound TO defend their
rights against the Helena corporations
who have ever opposed high wages and
the rights Of labor. He denounced the
statements that they had made about the
Occur d 'Alene troubles. He was In the
Coeur d'Alenes during all tho trouble and
new all the facts. He proved that oil the
opposition from Montana to the strikers
came from Helena and on the contrary they
were assisted by Butte, Anaconda, Gran.
ito and Philipsburg, rs everyone knows.
His remarks were followed with music by
the Philipsburg band and cheers for Ana.
