OFF FOR DEER LODGE.
Three County Conventions on Tap There
To-Day.

To-Day.
To-day will be convention day in Deer
Lodge, when three county conventions
will meet to nominate candidates for
county offices. The silver republicans.
the gold republicans and the populists
will all hold forth in the little city of
the valley to-day.
In order that the delegates and their
friends may go 10 Deer Lodge n get
back in time to go to bed. there viii be
a special train, which will leave Ana
conds at 9 o'clock this morning and
which will return at such hour as the
conventions may conclude their labors.
IL is expected that the hour of return
ing will not be later than s O'Clock and
IL is possible that the Anaconda dele
cations may get home as early az 6
o'clock. The fare for the round trip
will be a fare and a fifth.
Everything points to fusion in to-
days convention. Both the silver repu-
licans and ~populists say they will act
most literally with each other in the
division Of the offices, while the gold
republicans will doubtless indorse the
silver republican nominees. The silver
republicans want four of the nominees
on the legislative ticket. one of whom,
as the slate says, has gold republican
tendencies, while the populists may
have two. Then the silver republicans
want the sheriff. the county attorney
and the county treasurer. and may be
a minor office or so. The populists, in
addition to their two legislative candi-
dates. according to the republican con-
cessions, nay have the county clerk and
recorder. the assessor n no doubt the
rest of them.
II there is to be any fight. il will prob
ably be over the office of sheriff, for
which the populists have one or two
candidates. The republicans will insist
that the sheriff go to them. George
Linsley is one Of the men spoken OF 10
the republicans for this office. while
George Burnham is another. The popu-
lists talk OF Lou Burnett or ID. +. Hal
lahan. j. j.. Ryan is the populist can
didate for county clerk and recorder
A. ID. Peck and G. s. f. Wisner are
republicans who have been mentioned
for county treasurer on the republican
side. ]. w. James and C.. j. Walsh are
said TO be looking for the county attor'
neyship. There has not been much gos'
sip concerning the candidates for th'
/ other offices.

STATE DEMOCRATIC TICKET.
Mr.. Hartman's Letter.

T nj time since the three state
I conventions met has the Stan
dard presumed to slur the mo-
sought to cast the shadow of suspicion
on his loyalty TO. the cause Of free
coinage. Wherein this newspaper and
Mr.. Hartman. since convention days.
were brought to what appeared to be
the parting of the ways. a question of
policy was involved.
Mr.. Hartman became the candidate
of a political organization which, con-
fessedly. put him on a platform at
variance. in respect to issues essential
TO silver. with the convictions he holds
and with the views he has el~oquently
and honestly advocated. What has the
management Of the organization whose
nomination he accepted done since
then? II has made an alliance with the
outspoken. pronounced. s~elf-confessed
gold republicans in Silver Bow county.
yielding to that gold element the hold
over state senatorship-for use next
January and later on when Mr.. Carter
comes up-and. in addition. a large rep
resentation in lower-house member
ship in the state legislature, to be used
a few months hence. IL it happens

election Of a silver senator for Mon

That is the aggregation that proposed
10 misuse Mr.. Hartman. In the hurry
of a convention hour. he permitted him
self to be put at the head of its schem-
ing. As he reeites in his letter. pub
lished this morning in these pages, Mr.,
hartman. after calm reflection, has
concluded that there is harm rather
than benefit for silver in a campaign
Campbell. He resolved to permit his
conduct TO be guided by his convic-
tions as 10 what is best for silver's
welfare: he is manly about it and un-
selfish; M produces the proofs Of his
sincere loyalty TO the cause that knows
no other contamination except the full
restoration of silver to its just place in
this country's currency.
There are no reservations in Mr.,
Hartman's letter. II warmly commends
Mr.. Campbell 20 the support Of silver's
friends: IL offers Mr.. Hartman's SER
vices, which certainly are very valu-
able. in stumping the state. in advo-
caey OF that gentleman's election. II
goes without saying that this COURSE
will greatly strengthen Mr.. Campbell
More tina hat, however. and Of chief
est ccou is the fact that MIR. Hart
mans action brings Montana into &C
cord with the policy which he has ad'
xocated and which the Standard ha'
sdvocated-a policy which shows TO tn
friends Of silver in the close states tina
Montana. in act as well as in spirit
makes nersonal ambition and parti
sanship subordinate TO the ms com
mon interest. That is Mr.. Hartman
generous contribution thus early in tn
campaign. and it is Of very great &C
rount.

SOME IMMENSE
RAILROAD STATIONS,

The Union station In st. Louis is the
biggest passenger railway station in the
United States. 1t is $50 feet long, eco
feet wide and has 80 tracks. The nexr
largest station for passenger service I'm
this country is the Union station at
Boston, which is 500 feet long, $50 feet
wide and has 90 tracks.
Both these immense structures are TO
be surpassed, however, by the new
Southern station in Boston, which is
now nearing completion. The length or
the new station is to be 10 feet, and the
width $50 feet. When IL is completed.
there are to be tracks for 30 trains, and
the waiting room is to be 265 feet long.
The station is to be lighted by electrici.
ty and there will be steam heat. a com-
pressed air plant, icemaking machinery.

The prominence of Boston az q rails
road center. as shown by the size Of Ito
passenger stations, must be surprise
TO many, for the territory served bv
Boston is practically limited 20 New
England, and in much OF Il there II
very little growth of population. The
city OF Chfcaso. on the other hand, Is
entered by railroads representing q
mileage OF 10000. Nearly 100 through
and more than 500 local trains arrive
there daily in the passenger service,
and there are % companies having g
terminus there. but the business IL die

which is large enough TO De compnyed
