Jere Sullivan, G. w. Crane, E. F. Sayre
c. III. Barton. ]. w. Hyndman, c. Ha-
nan, M. F. Marsh, A. w. Leeds and
G. b. Bourne. Alternates-J. p. Cupp,

Julius Lehfeldt, John w. Power and c.
b. Mclaughlin
Questioned this afternoon by a STAN
dard reporter as to the choice of the
Choteau county delegation for the
presidential nomination, resident of
Benton-himself republican-said:
Strange as Ii may seem Choteau
county will send five delegates who
are avowed Mckinley men. The others
are divided and as yet have expressed
no particular choice. The fact is the
Mckinley men took snap judgment
against their opponents, the Power
Allison people, and selected delegates
to the Butte convention during the alb
sence of both John and Tom Power
BY looking at the list of delegates and
alternates, it will be observed that the
Power-Allison men are all alternates
except perhaps Tom OHanlon of Cho-
teau, and do not know how he stands
ly indignant that the county commit
tee named the delegation before that
gentleman returned from the East But
the central committee was afraid to
walt until Tom came home and took
advantage of the opportunity to put
up an uninstructed delegation to Butte.
NO county convention was ever called
or held to select the Butte delegation,
which is simply the creation of the
committee. There will be trouble when
the Goldman" gets back and his rep
resentatives will get roasted for get
ting caught asleep. What 1 am kick
ing at, however, is the fact that Cho-
teau county should send a delegation
TO the state convention that will either
endorse or approve of the national re-
publican convention nominating either
Mckinley or Allison-recognized gold

county in the state will be carried by

some kind while employed on the roof
or the Odd Fellows building in that
camp last Thursday and fell to the
ground, distance of 20 feet, striking
on a pile of lumber. He was uniniured
and stepped around as lively as ever
as soon as he recovered from the
