to throw up his hands The order was
not quickly obeyed and the robber fired
again, whereupon the cashiers hands
went up. the manager of the store was
then forced to open the bank door and,
after gathering up all the money in

and store employees into the street with
hands uplifted. They then rushed out

OUGHT TO WIN.
The Anaconda Standards Opininn OF the
Silver Ticket in Cascade County.

The Anaconda Standards Opininn OF the
Silver Ticket in Cascade County.
Editorially the Anaconda Standard
says:
cascade is one of the counties of
Montana where the sentiment in favor
of Bryan and Sewall amounts to en-
thusiasm. So strong is free coinage
sentiment there that the opposition, rep
resented in the organized Mckinley CO.
terie, is not of account enough . make
of itself anything more than the theme
of passing jest.
"Ot course, silver's friends yield to
these goldbugs the right to be for Nc
Kinley; that does not alter the fact that
there is nothing for the McKinleyites in
Montana except the possibility OF pie
for few goldbug boosters.
"Cascade county will send its support
Of the Bryan ticket up to magnificent
majority. The county, as will be seen
from the forecast printed on the Stand
ards Northern Montana psge this morn
ing, will do the same for Hartman.
1.-The democrats and populists of Cas-
cade have carried into their local poll
tics the same policy that has controlled
in respect to national electors and the
state ticket. Their county ticket is the
result of fusion. The product is a tick
ct which certainly ought to win, and
which, we have no doubt, will win.
Some of the Standards readers may re-
member the run of recent events in Ca
cade politics. TO begin with, the demo
Gratis and the populists named separate
county tickets. The state conventions
Of both parties set new pace by declar-
ing in favor of fusion, as the best plan
whereby to promote the silver interest
Cascade was one of the counties in
which it was deemed wise to follow the
example set by the state convention.
"Almost without exception the candi-
dates who had been nominated on the
seperate party tickets accepted the fu-
sion plan; the few who refused to do it
made, by their conduct, an exhibition of
their anxiety to look after themselves,
regardless of any high interests which
fusion might serve What little OF dis
satisfaction may at first have been ex.
pressed by these selfish asprants for the
local offices or by their friends was not
and is not worth considering.
1.-THE fusion ticket in Cascade is the
logical free coinere ticket in that county.
1t merte the cordial support it is re-
ceiving; the democrats, the populists and
the silver republicans ought to be loyal
to it and to all of it; in precincts like
Great Fails and Belt there certainly
should be no distinctions drawn or dis
ordinations suggested. The fact that
it is fusion ticket means that it is the
outcome of concessions; these ought to
be fully honored and respected by every
true silver man."

A Sound Decision.

CINCINNATI, Oct. lin the United
States court today Judge Sage an
nounced a decision which becomes a
precedent of great interest to bankers
and other business men. E. L. Harper
of the Fidelity National bank borrowed
100000 from the Chemical National
bank of New York city on March 2,
1886, to place in the bank. lie made
the loan on his own responsibility and
did not consult the bank trustees.
When the bank failed the Chemical
entered suit against Receiver Armstrong
to recover 100000. with interest. Arm
strong fought the suit because the trus-
tees had not authorized the loan. The
complaint alleges that they were doing
business with the accredited officer of
the bank and made the loan in good
faith and had no means of knowing his
misdoings. Judge Sage decreed for
complainants and gave judgment for
the amount with interest.

IsHpEM1SG, Oct. 1.-THE opposition
was out in force at Ishpeming when the
Bryan party arrived there. There was q
large crowd to listen to the candidate.
There was a big republican rally on at
which Washington Gardner was to
speak. The Mckinley club of the city,
headed by brass band, marched to the
democratic gathering.
Negaunee, to great extent, offset the
lack of warmth displayed at Ishpeming.
Bryan had time there to get on the
platform in the public square to thank
the people for their enthusiastic recep-
ton. He was cheered and applauded
until the train left for Marquette, where
it arrived shortly before 9 o'clock.

Other vessels were added to the business,
which grew and prospcrcd and soon be-
came too important longer to depend upon
the uncertain winds, and steamers replaced

Bananas were offered in quantities great

Alonug His Route.

EsCANABA, Mich, Oct 14.-There was
a shot made into Wisconsin at Florence,
and residents of that town in the Badger
state turned out in force to see and hear
the democratic nominee. The adherents
of the white metal were demonstrative
and so were the followers of the yellow.
After Bryan had concluded his speech
and his admirers had finished cheering
and applauding, three cheers were given
for the republican nominee by small
crowd of republicans, wearing yellow
badges.
The biggest crowd of the day up to
that time was encountered at Iron
Mountain. Apparently it was a most
unanimous silver aggregation. BY the
time E5canaba was reached, the bright
sunshine of the day had changed to a
bleak, cold wind, which was to be ex-
pected in the northern peninsula. This,
however, did not deter a very large
crowd from being present around the
stand, built within 100 yards of the de-
pot, and the cold apparently did not
chill the enthusiasm of those assembled.
Here Bryan was presented with a badge
OF the national colors, surmounted by. q
crown of silver. from a citizen who ex-
pressed himself as being "for Bryan now,
though for Mckinley in 1890"

ORIGIN OF SUNDOG.
fhe Expression Finds Place In Several
Well Known Dictionaries.

10 great many persons the term "Sun-
dog will appear strange and curious and
Will probably suggest an inquiry as to it's
meaning. Yet the word has q vogue and
is rcccE hizcd to the extent of claiming u
position in several of the best known of
our dictionaries According to the Ency-
clopedia Dictionary, II sundog is in II me-
teorological sense, "a luminous spot some
times visible IL few degrees from the sun.
1t is believed to be formed by the intersec-
ton OF two or more halos.''
In the periodical called "Notes and Que
rics" of Oct. 12 last year there appeared an
excerpt from tho b;lc of Wight Mercury
wherein writer describes the phcnome-
non on it's first proscntmcnt to him: "Tho
sun was shining brightly Oh our right
hand and lighting up Il range Of downs OH
our left. Behind these downs large mass
of black clouds werc illumincd by frequent
flashes of vivid lightning, when what ap-
pcarcd like fire balloon--only, of course,
with much more powerful light, as there
was strong sunlight-was seen travelling
slowly in front of the black clouds against
the wind and apparently going out to sea
in front Of us. Wc--for tho others in the
coach saw it also--howcvcr, unfortunately
lost sight Of it at a turn in the road and
did not see it again. l spoke Of it tho next
day to the boatman at the bay and he then
called it Il sunhound' or 'sllndog, and said
that it was IA light effect only, but was un-
able to tell me anything else. "
Several contributions appeared at sub
sequont dato in the Same periodical rcla-
tive to the term, and from them it would
appear "sundog" is by no means uncom-
mon as Il name for the phenomenon de-
,iol t.,
Glossary 'sundog'' is described us of Nor
folk vogue, but probably tho range Is
wider. 'Sunhound," it's congencr, Wright
localizes as belonging to the southern dis
trict of England. Mr.. Edward Peacock,
who writes to Notes and Queries with ref
erence thereto, mentions it us a Lincoln
shire term and describes it as "a false sun
THAT is, an appearance like q somewhat
clouded sun near the real luminary."
'Thcse things generally, but not al
ways" writes Mr., Peacock, "appcar in
pairs on the right and left of the trle
SUM- Among sailors short and detached
pieces of rainbow were called sundogs,
which were generally regarded by them as
precursors of dirty weather. But the cs-
scnce of the subsequent contributions in
the periodical named is contained in
communication from the pen of Professor
Tomlinson, who goes more into detail and
as Il scientists speaks with some authority
The article is too long to reproduce here,
but it may suffice to say that, according to
the writer named, the term is merely "a

non might suggest to an observer, and that

charges in connection with lightning, az

required by law, if the electors were
known to him and he believed them to
be qualified.
Section 1909 of the political code
reads: "Every person applying to he
registered must, before he is entitled IN
have his name registered, take and sub.
scribe the following oath or affirmation
which must be administered by the reg.
istry agent; but no elector who hs.
taken said oath at the time of the brew.
