DUPUYER.

Dupuyer is situated near the
geographical center Of the new
county of Teton, and in one of the
richest valleys in the state of Mon
tana. 1t has adjacent to it on the
north about 100 miles of the Great
Northern R. R. and on the east
and northeast about 12O miles of
the Great Falls and Canada R. R.
The ranches in the vicinity of Du>
puyer and in the Dupuyer creek
valley are highly improved and
we'll stocked with sheep, cattle and
horses. The ranges in the vicinity
are the best. The Marias and
Birch creek valleys lying to the
north of us are we'll settled and the
ranches well improved and culti-
vated. The mountains at the
heads of Dupuyer and Birch creeks
are heavily timbered and will afford
an unlimited supply for building
purposes.

GREAT FALLS, Sept 11.-For the
past week half dozen Helena
workers have been securing Great
Falls to secure signatures for a
capital club. After several days
work it is alleged that 40 names
were scared, and these, together
with few people drawn by music
OF really evcellent orchestra, as
sembled at the court room tonight
and held a little meeting
conda Standard.
How hopeless must be the cause
of Anaconda, when it's leading
newspaper has to resort to false~
hood and Misrepresentation. Ev-
cry citizen of Great Falls who was
at the court house knows that the
above is untrue. The Tribune,
which is controlled by Anaconda
and whose reporter is generally
one and the same person for both
newspapers, says there were 900 to
400 present. The book, containing
over 200 names at the beginning of
the meeting, was open to the in
spection of everybody. There is
no need of such misrepresentation.
The people of Great Falls are the
judges. Let them inquire and see
how grossly the meeting has been
misrepresented, and then from that
one thing judge all the other state
ments the Anaconda Standard has
been making. If it is false in one
thing it is likely to be false in all.

ne arrived at the city jail. It is
not known whether he died from
the wound, fright, heart disease or
other cause.
A Missoula dispatch Of the 10th
says. At II o'clock this morning
Fred Nichols, one of the men CON-
fined in the county Jail awaiting
trial for dynamiting Northern
Pacific passenger train during the
strike, was discovered to be miss
ing. It is not definitely known
how he effected his escape, but it
is thought that II. d. Moore, his
attorney, who had been consulting
with him, upon going out only
snapped the spring lock ON the cut-
side door and left the key IN the
outside door, and failed TO notify
Cue Jaller.
Bozeman dispatch, 9Th: The body
OF John Hibbler, butcher, of the
firm of Mack & Hibbler of this CITY,
was found today hanging from q
beam in one of the barns near their
slaughter house abont six miles
from town. He first shot himself
in the forehead and then swung
clear, strangling to death. He had
not been feeling well for some days,
and it is supposed, in a fit of de-
spondency, took his own life. De-
ceased was single man, about 40,
and quite successful in business.
A coroner's jury was empannelled
and taken to the scene, where an
inquest was held. They returned
a verdict that Hibbler came to his
death by his own hands.

The Anaconda for the capital
papers do not like to have the ta-
bies turned upon them in regard to
what they are pleased to call Hell
era's hoggishness. The Anaconda
company, wherever it has estab-
lished business, has hogged every
thing in a business way. In Ana
conda they have left nothing to
outsiders. The stockholders of that
company have organized the bank,
the Copper City Commercial COM
pany, the TUFTS Manufacturing
company, which operates foundry,
machine shops, and boiler and
blacksmith shops, as we'll as an
iron and stove store and plumbing
shop in Anaconda with a branch in
Bntte. They own the Standard
newspaper, the friedrich works,
the electric light plant and steel
railway, the Montana hotel, and
everything of consequence in the
city. Any one not belonging to
the company, or in favor with it,
will find no business in Anaconda
for him. He will be made to walk
out of town unless he does the COM
pany's bidding. And anyone, no
matter how faithfully he has serv-
ed the company or management,
who fails to do everything requir-
ed of him, will soon receive his

Was Anaconda built as a COM
mercial necessity or a convenience
for the general public. Do the
works at Anaconda benefit anyone
outside of those connected with the
Anaconda company. Do the Ana
conda railroads do any material
good to anyone outside of those
connected with the Anaconda min
ing and smelling industries; will the
people of Montana vote for a town
controlled by millionaires who live
in California (Messr. Haggin, Ferris
q co., and through Marcus Daily

There is considerable being said
now days about "white slavery. :"
Can the imagination draw more
vivid picture of slavery than would
result in the election of Anaconda
for the capital, city owned and
controlled by two or three multi
millionaires living in state hun
dreds of miles away, placing large
sums of money in the hands of their
aUpnts for tho f,,rtharanoo of +bo;r
scheme, and the mainstay or agent
using every effort to force himself
into the U. S. senate. "The town
of Pullman under it's boss rule is
thought by many laboring men to
be bad enough. But Pullman is a
paradise compared to Anaconda un-
der a czar."

TO place a contrary construction upon

guilty OF assaulting repeatedly the

make a deal. Later they sent a negro
boy back with them with instructions
to offer them at reduced price. DR..
Thompson, who was in the store. told
the negro boy that the fingers would

wishing to be scratched, rushed out the
back door and dropped the fingers on

them.
