which his party met on Tuesday.
"Oh, no." said Mr.. James. Il don't
know that I ! have anything to say"
ITO what do you attribute the big
democratic vote and the small vote East
for the fusion ticket?"
'.Well, IL Is my opinion that Mr.. Hart
mans action in withdrawing from the
silver republican ticket Is the reason for
the landslide. II Mr.. Hartman had
stood by us, the result In Deer Lodge
county would have been different. al
though I do not assert that we would
have won"

company the organization includes the
Coon Hollow s~erenaders, a troupe of
colored singers and dancers. boys and
girls. Unique electrical n calcium
displays are also features. but the play
depends rather on a vigorous plot and
well portrayed characters true to ma
ture than its scenic features. 1t has
been a great success In New York, Bos-
ton, Philadelphia and all the leading
cities East and West. An additional
feature this season is two quartettes of
singers. The play is in its fifth season

with a regularity that was not only
monotonous but distressingly painful.
somehow or other Allen had not the
slightest difficulty in throwing four or
five skies every time. Finally, all OF
Meggs' money. about IS, was up. He
cast a low number, while Allen bobbed
up with his usual skies.

Beginning a Great War Controversy.

From the Boston Transcript.
The Sampson-Shafter controversy will
probably continue as long as anybody
feels interest enough in IL to keep IL up.
IL may go on for 20 years to come. Only
the outbreak of the war with Spain inter-
rupted the controversy which ragged be-
tween General Schofield and General Cox.
concerning the battle of Franklin. which
was fought Nov. 30. 1854. This controversy
entered upon the book form only about a
year ago. There Is little hope. therefore.
that the publication of SIMPSONS dis
patches will do anything more than stir
up the controversy to new activity.
