REPUBLICANS MEET
THE WINNING TICKET NAMED LAST
FRIDAY AT ANACONDA.

A Harmonious Gathering of the Party
Forces-Standard Bearers Chosen who
Will Lead to yictory-Silver Wins With
out Il Show of Opposition.
The Deer Lodge republican county
convention met at Anaconda on Friday
last and was harmonious throughout.
Upon the issue Of free silver the senti
ment was unanimous, and if there was 81
single goldite present he did not once
show his head at any stage Of the pro-
ceedings. This result proves conclu-
sively that the people of Deer Lodge
county are of one opinion as to the rights
of the white metal and that they have
risen above mere partisanslip upon this
phase Of the national controversy. The
resolutions in effect endorse Bryan and
Sewall since they disavow the financial
plank Of the St. Louis platform and sus
tain the declaration of that issued at
Chicago. Upon all other public ques-
tions the declaration Of faith adopted by
the convention indicates that the repub-
licans of Deer Lodge county are loyal to
every other proposition set forth by the
national representatives Of the party at
st. Louis. @.:s
