The Anaconda standard. [volume] (Anaconda, Mont.) 1889-1970, 1898-12-18

Prominent democrats OF the state out
side Of the factions that had been act
ing I'm the strife did everything in their
power to- effect a compromise. and the
supporters of Judge Dixon were ready
to Join cheerfully and earnestly In the
movement. and to elect any good demo-
crat. Men Of national fame in democ-
racy earnestly urged compromise. but
Mr.. Clark refused. insisting that he was
sure Of an election. The final ballot
was a surprise. for the reason that IL
revealed the identity OF two men who
knew all the privacies of the opposition
and who to the very end had been in
the condolences of their respective fac
tions. They had been among the loud
est in d~enunciation Of Mr.. Clark's
methods. Bonner Of Deer Lodge and
Graves Of silver Bow played their parts
with consummate hypocrisy. Their mo-
uves had never been doubted by any
man in Montana. The final vote was
the browning blunder in Clark's doodle
campaign. Mr.. Clark supposed he had
II, but he fell fiat. In that ballot, how
ever. all the legislative faith was
brought to the surface and exposed to
view. The hnal ballot was as follows:
Whole number Of votes. So: necessary
to a choice. So: w. A. Clark. 32: w. w.
Dixon. II; Lee Mantle. 25: Thomas n.
Carter, l. on this ballot Clark received
the votes of six republicans-Hatch.
Annear. Graves. Coder. Lewis and Van
Cleve. He also gained Bonner from
the Dixon men.
Governor Richards appointed Lee
Mantle to hll the vacancy caused by
the expiration Of Sanders term. hut
the senate refused to admit Mantle.
For two years Power was M~ontana's
only United States senator. The legis-
latlve assembly Of 1895 elected two sem
ators, N to I'LL the vacancy and one
To succeed Power. The legislature was
Overwhelmingly republican in both
branches. The total number of repub-
leans was 50. making 30 necessary to a
choice. The republican caucus met
Wednesday night, Jan. 2. 1t was de-
cided that the short term should GO TO

Lee Mantle vas nominated on the first
ballot, the vote standing: Lee Mantle,

account with several of these boodlers.
In instances the retainer has already
been paid and the sum definitely agreed
upon which is to he paid hereafter. In
most cases this dicker has been con-
Quoted i'm Helena where the Clark
agents have met the visiting members,
sometimes at a hotel and sometimes at
a private house. In a few cases the
exact terms have been announced and
the bribery will be the subject OF sensa-
tional exposure in next months joint
session. The bribers for Clark have
been unusually bold about 1t this year
and. especially in two or three in
stances. the bribed have been fatally
careless in their talk. They are pres
entity to cut a bigger figure i'm Mon
tana's political history than Coder did.
The Clark agents advertise the fact
that Clark is immensely rich and that
he is willing To pay more his year than
ever for votes. Ii is claimed that those
who hit Clark for anything up to $780,
900 or $40. 900 can get 1t this year IL they
only stand pat for IT,. To one member
of the legislature who admitted his in
tention to vote for Clark an ~acquaint-
ance said a few days ago: hit him
for enough to keep you in good shape
somewhere else-you'n find that You
can't stay in Montana" Fortunately
the number of men in the legislature
who propose 10 sell out is not large. The
Clark attempt To buy the senatorship
will fail this year just as. i'm the past, II
has uniformly and miserab!y failed.
The time Montana had electing her
first set Of federal senators is a piece of
history hat nobody who knew any
thing about it will ever forget. The
action of the Silver Bow county COM
missioners in throwing out Precinct "a.
although sustained by the courts, has
never been sustained by public opinion.
and Messrs. Sanders and Power. who
finally secured seats in the United
States senate, were recognized as sena-
tors de facto. not senators de jure.
The organization of two separate
houses in Helena. democratic and re-
publican, is still too recent history to
be gone over in detail. on Dec. 30. 1889.
the democrats held a caucus. and the
first ballot for senator resulted: Clark
30. M~aginnis 20; Hauser is. on N
second ballot Clark received a majority
OF one. and was declared the choice of
the caucus for one enator Another
ballot was taken for the other senator
and Maginnis beat Hauser out.
The balloting in the legislature that
year began Dec. 81. 1859. on the repub-
lican side Sanders received every vote
but one on the first ballot. For the
second senator the republican vote
stood: Power Il; Mantle 10: Carpenter

A few days ago the Prescott Cour-
ier gave to Col. J. Frank Wilson a
column eulogium that was laugh
able in the extreme. Wilson for
delegate would carry Yavapsi coun-
ty by vote SO large that the pre-
cinct tally sheets would have to be
added to to hold the tally, in the
Courier's opinion. Does the Courier
remember who introduced the reso-
luton for the endorsement of Grov-
er Cleveland in the democratic con-
vention two years ago? fit does
not new and fresher mind should
be put at the head of that concern.
AS for carrying Yavapai county,
Col. Brodie or Oakes Murphy would
beat him two to one and the same
may be said of the whole north.

A committee of Flagstaff people
is asking the people of the north to
petition congress to throw open the
Coconino forest reserve, recently set
aside by proclamation of President
Mckinley. The setting aside of
this vast tract of timber land would
be an irreparable blow to the lum-
ber interests of the San Francisco
mountain country and would be
the death of Flagstaff and Will
liams. Our mining interests de-
mand the reopening of this great
timber belt and to have the matter
properly laid before congress it is
imperative that a northern man be
sent to represent US in that great
law making body.

Everybody will doubtless remem-
ber the trial in Paris of Captain
Dreyfus, an engineer in a French
artillery corps, on charge of SELL
ing plans of important frontier for
tifications to the Germans. On a
letter purporting to have been writ
ten by him Dreyfus was convicted
and sentenced to imprisonment on
DEVILS Island for life. The new
French Ministry has been investi-
eating the matter SO closely that
Tuesday last Col. Henry, a French
officer, confessed that the letter
which played such an importantpart
in the Dreyfus trial, was a forgery
and that he was the author. Henry
was arrested and committed SUI
eide in his cell in the prison. A re-
view of the Dreyfus and Zola cases
will now be had.

PINE NEEDLES.
A Novel Industry at Grants Pass,
Josephine County.

A Novel Industry at Grants Pass,
Josephine County.
There is factory at Grants Pass,
which converts pine needles into what
is termed pine needle wool, commod-
ity used like excelsior as ''stuffing''
for mattresses and other furniture.
OF this industry, the following inter-
esting item appears in the Grants
Pass Courier:
Last Saturday was pay day at the
Pacific pine needle factory for the
needles the children picked and de.
livered during the week. The scene
was an attractive one, there being at
least 125 children of all sizes on the
platform at one time awaiting their
turn to be paid off. Mr.. aud Mrs.
Cords have adopted the plan OF giving
the children a check hook which will
contain the amounts delivered during
the week that each one may keep an
account of the amount for which he
will expect pay on Saturday. The
children may deliver in small auanti
ties each day and have them weighed
at o'clock or later Mr.. and Mrs.
Cords are very kind to the children
and they are very anxious that the
little fellows may make a few dimes
otherwise it would be much less trou-
BILE to have he needles delivered by the
wagon load. Several tons were
weighed and paid for last Saturday
and the children went home happy"

NORTHwE>T NOTES.

In 1896 there were shipped from the
Ashland depot about 10000 boxes of
peaches which netted the growers ap.
proximately S21, 900, but for this year
the numoer of boxes shipped was
10000 while the net prico was $28, 900.
The profits, of course. were much
better than they were last year.
The mining outlook for the state of
Oregon is generally acknowledged to
be excellent. The past year a great
number of mining experts have looked
over the various mining districts and
invariably these men report that they
have been agreeabiy surprised at the
magnificent showings the developed
mines are making. Aside from the
gold districts there is in Southern
Oregon some excellent copper pros
poets, that so far as indications on
the surface go only need the right
kind OF men with money to open them
up. The section referred to is an ideal
one for mining. Timber and water
are in abundance, and with few miles
of railroad the copper could be
marketed very cheaply.-Western

mitted into the grange at corvallis in

WORSE THAN
AMERICAN SHOT
The Maria Teresa Could Not
=, ~tr'H
Brave a Storm.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 6 The cruiser
Infauta Maria Teresa, the captur ed
Spanish warship raised off Santiago
coast. fouudered at sea off San Saliva
dor. Bahamis, at Midnight Tuesday
during a terrible storm. Every man
of her crew was rescued by the tugs,
which put in here today.
The vessel was unable to withstand
the strain of the wind and waves, her
seams opened, she filled and sank in
water thousands of fathoms deep.
The report of Lieutenant Com
mander Harris to the secretary of the
navy gives an account of the sinking of
the vessel. 1t was found on November
lst that the ship had been badly
strained by the heavy seas, and was
taking water rapidly. Pumps were
put to work, but could gain no head
way on the water, and it was soon
evident that the ship must go to the
bottom of the sea. When this was
discovered. every energy wss put forth
to get everything movable off the
doomed cruiser, and so effective was
the work that when the Teresa went
down all the men and property had
been removed.

Accepts the Demands of England to With
draw from Fashoda.
PARIS, Nov. A semi official note
issued this evening says the govern
ment has resolved not to retain the
Marchand mission at Fashoda, adding
that this decision was arrived at by
the cabinet after an exhaustive exam
ination of the question.
LONDON, Nov 4.-The most reliable
information from Paris confirms the
earlier reports thatM Dupuy, the pre-
mier, has decided to wash his hands of
Fashoda and to recall Major March
aud, for whose mission he is not res
ponsibie.
This decision is. to some extent,
due to desire to allow nothing to
interfere with the success of the expo
sitien of 1900. Today will be import
ant in the history of the crisis. 1t is
expected that Baron de Courcel, the
French ambassador, will impart the
French decision to Lord Salisbury,
who will speak this evening at the
banquet to be given the sirdar, Cen
eral Lord Kitchener
