WITH MoNTANA's TICKET
Attempt to Get Congressman Hnrt-
man or.

Helena. Mont. Oct. lin the supreme court
today was argued the application OF IL. c.
Russell OF this county for restraining order
to prevent the county clerk from giving a
place the ticket to several members OF all
parties who were endorsed by meeting called
the convention of the silver republicans. The
latter were members of club known as the
silver republican club, who after the county
convention nominated ticket not entirely suit
able TO them made up ticket OF their own
out OF the nominees OF all parties. They asked
for place for 1t the ballot under the
silver republican party designation under
which heading the name of Congressman
Charles s. Hartman appeared. The contention
OF the applicants Is that the members OF the
so-called silver republican party participated
in the primaries OF the regular republican par
ty, and the law provides that elector shall
participate in the nomination OF more than
one man for the same office.
The Importance of the case lies in the al
legged discovery by the silver men that It
conceals plot to get Congressman Hartman
off the ticket. Leading lawyers from all over
the state were present at the hearing. The
geld republicans have no hope OF electing their
unless by some method they can invall-
date the position the recent ticket of his
only opponent. Mr.. Hartman. Testimony was
taken today and the supreme court will hear
arguments Monday.
