Why You Should Register.

The first important work of the cam
paign is registration, and this is so vital a
question, and one so fraught with serious
consequences, that we feel it our duty to
urge prompt and immediate action in
every precinct in the county.
Every voter in the state must register
for this election, no matter though he
may have been registered heretofore, or he
will not be entitled to vote. His qualifi
cations to be a voter and entitled to regis
ter for this election are as follows:
He must be a full citizen of the United
States and have resided within the state
of Montana one year and within the coun.
ty thirty days, priorto the 9th day of No.
vember, 1894: Provided that a person
who will not be eligible to full citizen.
ship until after the closing of the period
of registration, may be registered upor
taking an oath, as required by law, that il
is his honest intention to become a full
citizen prior to election day.
Naturalized citizens must produce theil
papers to the registration agent, or, il
lieu thereof, proper and satisfactory proc
that they have been duly issued and los
or mislaid.
The Registration Books open on DC
tober 9th. From that date up to DC
tober Both registration offices will be opel
during the hours between 10 A. NJ. an,
10 P. NJ.
Every Registry Agent must sit within
each election precinct in his district a
least two, and not more than three days
during the period of registration. Blu
the qualified voters of the several cleo
ton precincts in the district may regis
ter in any precinct in the district tina
best suits their convenience during tn
time for registration.

THE BUTCHER AND THE OWL.
An Ancient Tale, Explanatory Foot
Notes BY the Publisher.

In a quiet village, l sequestered among
the hills, 2 once upon a time there dwelt
a certain butcher 3. He was hale and
jolly, and many were the friends 4 of
whom he boosted. Now this jolly old
butcher. it is well to state. was some
what epicurean in his tastes ) and in the
selection of meats for his own liable was
especially part cular. His friends often
ate with him because he was a la fran
caise, bon vivant. 6
Now it came to pass. that the butcher
had procured a fine fowl Z which he in
tended should grace his own table, and
had secreted its carcass in his ice-box.
Two familiar friends 8 by chance dis
covered the fowl in the ice box. One of
these friends 8 it will be remembered
filled the important Office of ice box in
spector during the famous administra-
ton of O'Hoolihan. And by force of
habit, as we said before, they discovered
the fowl; and to turn a practical joke, 10
did ''swipe" II the said fowl leaving in its
place a guttapercha article of footwear.
IL
The butcher soon missed the fowl and
discerning the course it had taken, judged
that it had already gone the short route
down the necks of his friends. 10 This
same butcher was also an expert taxi
dermist, and delighted in stuffing the
dermatic integument IA of animals
and birds with excelsior Is and other
raw materials. 16
Now it came to pass in those days,
that the reeve of the village II who was
himself a mighty hunter, had just
brought in a monstrous gray owl, 1s
which he happened to bag 10 while pur-
suing his favorite sport, and had taken
the owl to the butcher to have it set up.
30 The butcher was up to rags 81
about his business and conceived a coun.
ter joke on the lads who had surrepti-
tiOusly swiped his fowl.
He put the carcass of the owl in a fry.
ing pan, placed it over a hot fire and
sent at once for these gentlemen to dine
with him. They came, and while the
good butchers back was turned, they
did once more apply their p%urloining art,
and levied upon the owl, which they
took to be chicken, frying pan and all,
and carried it away to their hiding place
The. bird was tough, but they eat it all,
and the good kind butcher is not as
green as he looks
Moral: Don't mention owl to those
young men.

Poor, but RiOh,

Once, in New England, says a
writer in the .'Outlook," / was
driving with an old farmer, and some
of the men of the neighborhood
came under criticism. Speaking OF
a prominent man in the village
asked. ale is a man of means?:"
"Well, sir" the farmer replied.
she amt got much money, but he's
mighty rich"
He has great deal of land, then?'
| asked.
"No, sir, he amt got much land.
neither, but still he is mighty rich
The old farmer, with a pleased
smile, observed my puzzled look fol
a moment and then explained:
"You see, he amt got much
money, and he amt got much land
but still he is rich, because he never
went to bed owing any man a cen
in all his life. He lives as we'll a.
he wants to live, and he pays as he
goes; he doesn't Owe anything, anc
he amt afraid of anybody; he tell
every man the truth, and does hi
duty by him self, his family, and hi
word is as good as a bond, and ever,
man, woman and child in the tow
looks up to him and respects him
No, sir, he amt got much money
and he amt got much land, but h
is a mighty rich man, because he:
got all he needs and all he wants.
| assented to the old farmers de
auctions, for l thought then entirel,,
correct. When a mar has all h
needs and ali he wants he is certainl
rich, and when he lacks these thing
he is certainly poor.

Have you registered?


In Montana a ~disgraceful fight is
going on. The interests Of the coun-
try are subordinated to the question
of whether the capital of the state
should be removed to Anaconda or
not. The real question is whether
the manager of the Anaconda COM
panv has the state of Montana in his
pocket or not.-Salt Lake Tribune.
That is the view of the situation
taken by the able, disinterested and
impartial Salt Lake Tribune. Sure
ly no one will accuse the Tribune OF
political prejudice in the case. Ger
tainly no Anaconda heeler will assert
that Judge Goodwin of Salt Lake
would express an opinion, On the
subject, biased by personal animos-
ity toward anyone associated with
the Anaconda company.
The Tribune simply expresses a
plain and palpable fact. 1t is the
view that every fair minded man in
the country must take of the situa-
ton. 1t gives the people of Mon
tana an opportunity to see themsel,
YES as others see them. 1t givesthem
a clear, unobstructed view of the
political landscape. In the most for
chile manner possible it reminds
them how small they will be in the
eyes of the people of the country al
large if they advertise to the world
that they are owned body and SOU
by n corporation.
What will the business men and
laboring men of Montana who desire
to see the varied of the
state developed say on election day:
Will they say to all eastern capital
"This state is the property of the
Anaconda corporation and if you in.
vest in property within the confines
of Montana you must pay tribute tc
the Anaconda company"
Will they say that the fear of Bos
ton capitalists that Montana is to be
come like Nevada, a close corpora
ton state under the dictation ano
tryannical control of a few men who
will make every other interest sub
servient to their own and crush on
every enterprise which is not man
aged in their selfish personal inter
est, is we'll founded?
1t does not seem possible that suc|
a disgrace will be brought upon tn
people now living in the state or tina
such a calamity will befall the flu
ture of the commonwealth.
Does the Anaconda company, wit
headquarters in New York and its Fl
n~Ancial hackers in London, carry tn
state of Montana in its pocket? TIL
Salt Lake Tribune expresses the is
sue precisely when it presents thu
as the question before the people

EXTRACTS FROM THE REPUB-
LICAN PLATFORM.

We especially denounce the hostile at
titude of the democratic party toward
the wool interests of the United States,
whereby one of the principal industries
of Montana has been ruined and those
engaged i'll it bankrupted by the deprc-
citation in value of all their property and
products to the extent of more than one
half, and the consequent loss to the state
of millions of dollars.
~
We invite attention to the contrast be-
American people under the influence of
republican legislation and a~dministra-
ton, and the conditions of hardship, dis
tress and disorder that have resulted
from eighteen months of democratic
rule; and We call upon the citizens of
Montana to arise above the prejudices of
partisanslip and join us on the platform
of a common patriotism in the redemp-
ton of the land from ruin and the restor-
alton of its welfare.
*
We believe that the consistent applica-
ton of the principle of protection re-
qulres the regulation of imported persons
as well as imported products, and that
the tim has now come when we should
enact vigorous measures of legislation to
prevent the incnrsion of underpaid and
Ignorant laborcrs from the old world,
and so reconstruct our laws respecting
naturalization as to place additional safe
guards around American citizenship.
~
We demand the free and unlimited
coinage of silver at the ratio of IS to /,
and the making of silver as well as gold
a legal tender in payment of all debts,
both public and private; and pledge our
senators and representative in congress
to the support of the policy expressed
in this resolution, irrespective of the
action of republican members from
other sections of the union. We further
demand that this policy shall be estab-
lished forthwith by the Independent ac-
ton of our government regardless of
what any other country may or may not
do.
We hereby pledge all republican can
didates for the Legislature, if elected, to
vote only for such candidates for the
United States senate as are known from
their record and past u%tterances to be
uncompromisingly in favor of such free
coinage.
~
We denounce the action Of the presi-
dent of the United States in failing to
executive for the period of -four months
before its repeal the provisions of the
Sherman act requiring the purchase of
of four and one-half million ounces of
silver per month as a fragrant violation
OF his duties and a usurpation of legis-
lativc authority.
X x
We recognize the right of all classes
OF workingmcn to organize for the pur-
pose of using all Lawful! and peacable
means to protect their rights, improve
their condition and place labor on an
equal footing with capital; and we APP
prove of the establishment of tribunals
of arbitration and Cancellation whereby
differences between employers and en-
ployes may be settled and adjusted with
out strikes or lockouts.
