AN OLD DEER LODGER.

Henry Neill the Well-Known Pbpulist
Leader Visits the Flower City.
Henry Neill Of Helena, representing a
new system of steel voting booths, the
right to use which he desires to sell the
county, was before the board of commits
sioners on Tuesday and made THE New
NORTHWEST pleasant call on the same
day. Mr.. Neill is an old resident Of Deer
Lodge, having held the position o. turn
key at the penitentiary here in 1877 80,
during the latter part of VIM. H. Wheel
er's and the first part of Alex. Fl. Bot
kin's administrations as United States
marshal.
For number of years he has been
prominently identified with the pdpulist
party of Lewis and Clarke county and
has given much unselish and effective
service to its success and welfare, it is
then entirely consistent for Mr.. Neill to
announce himself as candidate for the
sheriffalty of his county on his party
ticket in the coming campaign, which
step he has taken. All his friends
throughout Montana, who are legion d, will
wish him success in his venture, and he
should certainly poll the whole strength
of his party in the event of his nomina-
ton.
Mr.. Neill is eldest son of the late Rev.
E. D. Neill, who was for many years

TheyArc Changing

This city was visited last week by a
gentleman travelling for St. Paul house
who stated that he entered the state com
mitted to the gold standard, but since
reading the arguments presented by the
Montana press he has modified his views.
He candidly acknowledged that the Min
nesota papers have shown most narrow
and fanatical unfairness in the discussion
of the question and have permitted only
the claims Of the gold men to find place
in their columns. It is his belief ex-
pressed here that there is tide setting
in for free coinage in the middle west, as
the people read more and more upon the
question, that will ultimately take many
of the states now accredited to the single
standard theory into the bimetallic
,'olumn.

POPULlSTS AND SILVERITEs.

st. Louis Once Again the Scene of Inhar-
monious Observation-Disclosures Solid.
Two important conventions are in ses-
SION at st. Louis and the last two Of the
regular political assemblages which have
been announced to meet in this greatest
OF convention years since 1860 Whether
the gold wing of the democracy will
gather together for the purpose of put
| ting forward a ticket and whether the
! chaotic conditions at St. Louis will event
uate in a bolt and another convention,
cannot yet be foretold but the chances
are the chapter will not close with the
| work of the populists and silverites now
gathered in the Missouri metropolis
which has been the political seat of the
| country this summer.
| The silverites, whose forces were a
| unit on the endorsement Of the Chicago
ticket and who had nothing to do but
formerly meet. sanction the democratic
| nomination, and disperse, have remained
in session in order that they might aid in
harmonizing the discordant elements
| among the populists and secure the same
result in that party, and their delibera-
tions have been presided over by William
7. St John, the New York banker, who
has given the country the fullest proofs
OF his sincerity and patriotism. Men of
very great national renown and long and
loyal service are present as delegates,
among them Senator John p. Jones,
Francis Newlands, General Warner and
others. "" ".
The populists are presided over by that
conservative and able veteran, Senator
Allen of Nebraska, who brings we'll
balanced parliamentary knowledge and
judgment to the place. The meetings
are described as picturesque in the ex-
treme and some famous characters who
stand out like canoes in American polit-
ical life are on the floor, including Sena-
tor Peffer, Ignatius Donnelly, Mary Ellen
Lease, Thomas Patterson of Colorado,
Congressman Howard, author of "If
Christ Came to Congress- General Cox4v
VI CoAeS amy Iiile, ana numerous
others.
A strong element, known as the mid
dle-ot-the- Road men, mostly from the
South, are opposed to anything but a
straight populst nomination by which
the independence of the party is to be
preserved, second representation wish
to nominate Bryan and a populist for vice
president on a straight party platform,
while third are for an unqualified en-
dorsement of the Chicago ticket. The
last number the experienced politicians
and what may be called the best class of
the party leaders. There seems little
hope of unanimity and whichever party
controls it is believed a walllout must
| follow.
| Thursday, Esd.
The situation yesterday indicates that
| Bryan will be endorsed by the populists
a test vote showing him to have 75S votes
/ as against 564 cast by middle -of-the road
men, a majority of 1914
1t seems to be clear, however, that Sc
wall cannot muster votes enough to nom
mate, and it is probable that a straight
| populist candidate will be chosen, The
| Silverites are still waiting and have so
| far taken no action.

COPPER CITY NOTES.
THE LATE RACE CARNIVAL ON ANA
CONDA'S UNRlVALED TRACK.

A Drive Across the Scenic Valley of the
Deer I.odge--Nature at Her Best Happy
Homes in Wealth of Plenty Warm
Springs-Anaconda i'll New Garments.
The drive from Deer Lodge to Ana
conda is one Of the most delightful in
the state. All the way the unequaled
natural road winds amid broad stretche es
OF beautiful meadows, whose surface,
sutfused with the changing tints of the
soft satin greens of the wild grasses
mingled with the russets Of the ripening
timothy and the bilowing pinks and
puppies Of the clover and red top, is
framed in timber clad curves Of the river
amid which farm houses nestle. At
every mile in the soft blue haz that
wraps nature as in veil Il maEchless
landscape stands forth, Swiss like in its
serene and quiet beauty, with the stern
and rugged outlines Of giant mountains
dimly lowering to mighty heights, now
close at hand, now melting far away into
an invisible horizon.
Warm Springs is a picturesque and
restful spot with its great fields ofalfalfa
interspersed with towering shrubbery
and clusters of shadowing cottonwoods
and balms, amid which wind inviting
paths and broad driveways leading to the
buildings. There is probably no better
or more skillfully conducted retreat
any where for the mentally Athlete b than
the Montana institution, and surely
more favorable spot for such an estab-
lishment could not be found upon the
continent. ..-.- -.s-.=5
Though Warm Springs is the 4ite Of
the insane asylum and the solemn
shadow of the living death which turks
within its sad brick cells and towering
walls necessarily broods over all it is
nevertheless sought by many as health
and pleasure resort where, in the midst
OF the inspiring scenery, the healing
waters may be used and a table famous for
its home like bounty may be enjoyed.
The recent death Of DR.. MussE Egbrod
leaves the Warm Springs asylum in the
sole charge Of DR.. A. H. Mitchell, who
with DR.. Mussigbrod has held the contra ct
for many years. Under Dr. Mitchell's
care the great excellence of the instuti-
tion in the whole range Of it's m anage-
ment is sure to be maintained.
Anaconda has taken on surprising
growth in the past three years ind it
may almost be said that the town is a
new creation. New streets have grown
up which stretch away from the business
center for blocks, and the place has
clearly trebled its population in the time
mentioned. There are however few
structures in the recent quarter that have
any pretention to architectural proper
tions and the expansion seems to have
been confined almost wholly to the needs
of the working classes. The race track
is one Of the completest and best In the
Northwest and the grand stand is com
modlous and handsome, with every ap-
pointment fitted to meet the demands of
the modern circuit. The races are said
to have been conducted in creditable
manner, and Manager Upton has intro
duced many reforms.
