 NEW YORK, Aug. 27.-Among tho pas senEers who arrived on tho French line steamer La Normandic was the Hon. Levi P Morton, who was seen on the prome- made deck of the steamer shortly after she dropped anchor in quarantine. Ho evi- dently anticipated the reporters ques- tions, as the following note which he handed to those who greeted him will show:

monument. It came in the form of n fierce thunder shower, which swept over the city almost without warning and then settled into Il steady rain until sunset. Several tents were dismantled by the sheets of rain which beat against them, and the lightning was unpleasantly sharp.
 All of the discomforts incidental to the storm were accepted in hilarious mood by the Knights, however, and they made fun under the canvas as well as outside after the first drenching wave of rain had pass ed over.
 There were reunions and cheers for tho arriving companies, while the bands in camp kept giving a continual concert, en- deavoring to Outplay their rivals. Special trains were pulling into the depots, and the brilliantly uniformed commands in scarlet, blue and white were marching up Pennsylvania avenue through the rain, many displaying handsome banners.
 The Florida PhaIanx Arrives.
 Particularly striking was the Florida phalanx, presenting gleaming array of white duck trousers and carrying at tho head of the line the most famous product of their state. stuffed alligator, rampant. In spite of the weather hundreds of resi- dents Hooked to inspect the camp during the day, trooping through the avenues of tents and cruwtling about the goats and other paraphcrnalia, animate and mani matc brought by the wcstcrnors, who are in large majority so far. Fine dis cipline was maintained in the cncamp mont. something like martial regulations being enforced. Three thousand men slept on the light cots under canvas last night, while uniforms are tho rulc rather than the exception on the streets.
 The most heavily gilt laced of the TO- galia is to be found at the Ebbitt House, where headquarters have been established by Major General Carnahan. where the citizens committee also congrcgate, and where every stIanger is greeted by his ac- quaintances with an official title.
 Among the prominent divisions which have arrived are those from New York, Cincinnati. Indianapolis, St. Joseph. Chi cago and Colorado.
 President Cleveland has definitely prom iscd to review tho grand parade tomor- row. A reviewing stand will be erected for him in front of the executive mansion. General Carnahan and his staff will TO view the parade on horseback at the head of Pennsylvania avenue near tho treasury A stand is being erected by tho treasury. in which seats will be reserved for scna- tors, representatives and other govern. mcnt officials and members of tho diplo- matio corps.

MIR. HAGoIN IsAsxIoUs.

The visits Of Jas. b. Hagin to Mon
tana are becoming so frequent as 10 sug-
gest the idea that he is becoming ex-
ceedlngly anxious over the outlook for
his state capital ambitions. He arrived
from the south Monday night in his lux
urious special Pullman car and those
who caught a glimpse of his face say
that the lines indicating doubt and anx-
iety were noticeably numerous on his
usually coldly serene visage. There is
some rumor that Mr.. Haggln has come
to Montana at this time TO take personal
charge OF his capital campaign and that
there will be added TO the original plans
all the unique fixtures which marked
his water fight In the Black Hills just
before he cut down wages at the Home
stake. This rumor. however, may not
be true. Indeed IL seems more likely
that Mr.. HaggIn merely came up to see
that the second million dollars Of the
capital campaign fund reaches the Ana
conda headquarters safely and that
proper arrangements had been made to
get II promptly to the points where II is
expected that Doodle will yield the best
results on the 9th day OF November

KNneKs nER our.

Anaconda realizes that the showing
up OF her corporation-cursed condition
is the worst possible thing that could
happen to her. No free man who fully
realizes her actual situation in this re-
spect can be brought to her support. Her
candidacy was desperate enough be-
fore, but since the studious attention OF
Montana's voters has been fixed upon
this one feature OF her conditIon-that
nlnety-nlne per cent OF her business and
Industrial interests are owned by one
great and overshadowlng corporation
since the fact has become generally
known she has 10 all intents and pur-
poses been out of the race so far as
three-quarters of the reputable voters
of the state are concerned.
We say that Anaconda realizes this.
1t is shown by every move her agents
have made in the past two weeks. And
no wonder they realize IT, for their
Pinkerton assistants have certainly
seen enough of the unpopularity at
taching to powerful and unprincipled
corporations TO be able TO put them on
TO the fact. 1t is the full realization OF
il that has caused the Anacondans 10
raise such a howl about the Northern
Pacific's position in the contest-over-
looking the fact that II any capital can
be made out of railroad support, that
Anaconda has the active cooperation
OF the Great Northern system with Its
odious record of attempted wage cut
ting. It is OF course the most natural
thing in the world that these two great
corporations-the Anaconda and Great
Northern-with parallel love for wage
reduction should play in together in the
capital election. And the existence OF
that fact is what makes II a hazardous
proposition for the Anaconda campaign
ers to bring the railroad question into
the matter at all. II is mighty certain
that Helena will lose nothing by the dis
cussion taking a turn of that kind.

TnE DAWN or PEACE

A Montana man visiting in Spokane
gives dismal picture Of the capital con-
test In Montana. He says neighbor Is
arrayed against neighbor, that even
persons in the same household are at
variance. and that a lasting bitterness
will be left by the contest.
Nonsense! The people Of this state
are going to soundly trounce a bribing
and bulldoalng corporation. The men
who own It and have put up this capital
fight for the benefit of their townslte,
do not live In the state at all. II they
are bitter at their overthrow after the
contest is over. they can bc bitter in
New York and San Francisco and Dead
wood, and nobody IN Montana will ever
know the difference. We do not know
OF anybody In Montana who has the
cause OF this corporation very much at
heart. Some men advocate II through
seff Interest, some through fear. some,
like Marcus DAILY and Paris Gibson, be-
cause II is a matter OF business. or they
have their orders. But ninoty-nye per
cent Of tho people of this state will be
glad after the fight Is over that Helena
got The capital, They viii grow moro
nnd more 10 feel this way as time rolls
on. and IN a few years they Will thank
their stars that the majority " the
people of Montana were too wise and
too thoughtful to let tyrannical cor
poration fasten It's chains upon the
state.
Even the follows In every county who
have taken the Anaconda company's
money win have no regrets, save one.
They will bo 1rry That the barrel gave
out and sigh for thr days that are no
more. but as the place whore the capt.
tai Is located docs rot concern them al
all, they soon will cease 10 trouble their
minds about the matter.
Even Marcus Daily VIII have no Bit
torness, lie viii be glad 20 have the
struggle ended. As n snlaried agent oi

buy the capital, he hns done his level
best and managed the campaign with
ability and astuteness. There Is not q
man in Montana but what will admit
that Mr.. DAILY has earned every dollar
Of his salary In tho past two years.
There Will be no bitterness toward Mr.
DAILY. Why should there be-? Hc

seeks to purchase the capital Of this
