from the owners of lots in block 40,

was voted TO have the chamber Of com
merce communicate with the board OF
county commissioners to ascertain
whether an official census of the coun-
ty may not be taken this year. 1t is
urged that the need of a reliable and
recent census is often felt.
Regarding the enlargement OF the
southern judicial district by the admis-
sion of Missoula, Ravalli, Deer Lodge
and Granite counties and part of JEFF
ferson county, the matter was referred
again to Messrs. Haldorn, Davis and
Caplice.
MIR. Haldorn. who has just returned
from the East. said he thought some
thing should be done to divert capital
from Cripple Creek to Montana. He
found that capitalists in the East are
much interested in Colorado. but show
little interest I'm Montana. lie thought
efforts should be made to boom Mon
tana as Colorado is being doomed, and

sources of Montana are. Montana

that of Colorado the last year, but the
eastern people don't seem to think so.

crown on her head on the day on which she

MEADE AND HANCOCK.
some Remarks Drawn Out by the
Gettysburg Monuments.
Philadelphia Telegraph.

PnfldUelpnla Telegraph.
Though of widely different characteristics
in some respects, these two Pennsylvania
soldiers made brilliant records. and they
will ever be hcnored in the pages of his
tory. The manner i'm which General Meade
was placed In command just previous to
the battle of Gettysburg was sufficient to
try the mettle OF the strongest OF men.
Without even knowledge OF the plans o.
his predecessor: conscious of the fact th;>.
the fate of the Nation might rest. upon his
shoulders; realizing that an tmperfled gov
ernnlent was leaning upon him in extreme
anxiety: his army dispirited after repeated
failures to accomplish it's mission: lack OF
harmony among his subordinates; great
and decisive battle just ahead on strange
situation was unprecedented The whote
country trembled with excitement. The
enemy desperate and defiant. was ready
TO strike as he had never done before. Yet
George @. Meade went brayely forward and
performed the fearfully burdensome task
assigned him with consummate skill and
dauntless courage.
History has never done Justice TO the
commander OF the Army OF the Potomac
at this time. being largely aIected by the
hasty and unjustifablc criticisms of the ad-
ministrntion. which were pardonable. con-
sidering the exiGencies of the situation. but

VOTE WILL BE CLOSE.
Hanna Thinks He Can Down Lodge
and the "GOIdv Men.


Special to the Indianapolis Journal.
ST. LOUIS, June Ex-senator Lodge has
received tonight statements purporting to
show the attitude of every delegate on the
question Of inserting the word gold in
the platform. and he has been given poll
of how every delegate in the convention
will vote on this point. 81 am certain" :"
said he, that the gold men will have n
majority in the committee, but even If We
are defeated in the committee I am abso-
lutely convinced that we will win our case
by safe majority in the convention
There is grave reason to believe that Sem
ator Lodge has been misinformed concern
ing some of the members of the committee
on resolutions. Thus, while 1T is true that
Jamison, the member from Nebraska. is a
gold man, his delegation is opposed to the
use of the word, and Jamison is one of the
men he relies on. Then again il would be
unwise to class Michigan in the gold gall
axy, when 1t is known that tonight there
Is a decided change of sentiment among
the members of that delegation towards
sound money only, and against the word
gold" Mr.. Hanna has received from the
chairman of each delegation a statement
of the attitude of the delegations on this
most serious question. and from the returns
1t is plain that IL Mr.. Lodge controls the
committee at all 1t will be by dangerously
narrow margin.
Mr.. Hanna has been receiving reports all
night from his most trusty and experienced
agents, and he believes that he may have
perhaps been betrayed this afternoon into
a brief exa ggeration of the danger that
threatened him, and that In his anxiety for
harmony and haste" he may have con-
ceded more than he will concede now. Ger
tain IL is that at this moment. midnight. he
authorizes denial of the statement that
he will accept the Lodge plank declaring
for the present gold standard" His pres
ent measure of concession is limited to n
plank of about this nature: The Republic
| an party established and has maintained a
system of currency as good as gold the
world over, and IL demands that the system
party shall he maintained
The Mckinley forces are being rallied to-
night with the secret order TO resist the
Lodge plank, and to view il as a covert at
tack on Governor McKinley's nomination.
Mr.. Hanna feels so much necouraged that
he now. believes that Mr.. Lodge can be de-
feated for the craftsmanship of the commit
tee. The members OF the committee from
the silver States will vote for Lodge. be-
cause they say he represents an element
that favors straight-out uneuuivocal
| statement OF the issue. They are forcing
everything towards the gold. and realizing
that they cannot win i'm an open declaration
| for silver. They say they must have one
thing or the other and will not put up
| with any platitudes. IL is worthy OF re-
mark, by the way that a number of dele
cations from what are known as free-sil-
| yer States-as Montana. Colorado, Wyom-
| ing. Utah and Idaho-to-day refused to ap-
point members on the committee TO notify

SENTIMENT OF DELEGATIONS.
The Kind of Money Plank That VIII
BE Demanded.

ST. LOUIS, June 15.-Some of the State
delegations at their meetings to-day took
bold stand on the financial question
many declaring openly for the gold stand
ard. The Oregon delegation adopted the
following resolution for gold and will sub
NIT it to the convention committee on reso-
lutions:
THE Republican party has always been
the advocate of honest money. 1t points
with pride to its financial record during
the greenback movement. IT was opposed
to greenback imitation then; il is opposed
to silver imitation now. We believe that
every dollar issued by the government
should have the same purchasing power as
every other dollar. We are, therefore. in
favor of the maintenance of the present
national agreement, are opposed TO the
free or unlimited coinage of silver
The Minnesota delegation came out
strong for a declaration in favor of the
maintenance of the gold standard 1t in
structed Ex-Governor Merriam, the repre-
sentative of Minnesota on the committee
on resolutions. to insist on a straight gold
plank and pledged the eighteen votes of
the delegation i'm the convention to stand
by him TO the end. Representative Chas
Towne. of Minnesota. is infuriated over the
action of the delegation. and openly de-
clares that il its gold plank is placed in
the platform he will stump the State for
silver,
In the kentucky delegation meeting dele
gate at large l.. p. Tarleton offered the
following resolution. which the Kentucky
member of the committee on resolutions is
instructed TO submit for the consideration
OF the committee:
1--WE are opposed 10 the free and unlim-
tied coinage OF silver at the ratio of 16
TO | or at any other ratio unless by inter-
national agreement with the other great
commercial nations: and therefore de-
mand that the existing gold standard of
value be maintained believing that the In
dustrial interests of our people require that
all exchanges in trade and the wages of
labor should be based on the money hav-
ing the greatest intrinsic value and of high
est standard in the markets of the world.
At the same time we favor the use of
silver in currency to the extent only
and under such regulations that its par
ity with gold shall be maintained"

FiIlex NOW for Reed.

ST. LOUIS, June 1.-THE first threat of
a ripple to mar the smooth march toward
the nomination of Maj. William Mckinley
came late tonight in the shape of a re-
port that the Missouri delegates owing al
legiance to Chauncey 1. Filley had deter
mined to break from Mckinley to Reed
The first report was that five del
egates had signed an agreement
to vote for Reed, while others
were preparing to do likewise. This deyel-
opment grew out of the defeat of F'iiley
for the post of national committeeman at
to-days meeting of the Missouri delegation.
The bitter fight which has been waged be-
tween the two factions of Missouri Re-
publicans. led by X. c. Kerens and Chaun-
cey l. Filley, eliminated at St. Joseph, Mo-,
May IL, when Fflley swept everything be-
fore him in the State convention. Since
then the Kerens wing has worked upon the
district deleg ltions and to-day, on a secret
ballot Filley was defeated.
