ganize and put into effect a stable gov

to be his duty to help these people In
their efforts.

system of government from the high

ing made, and the same attention is
being paid to the primitive rules and
laws of the so-Called republic of Cuba

REED WILL RUN AGAIN
RENOMINATED AS USUAL BY HIS
MAINE DISTRICT.
There Is No Political Feeling, He Says,
and the War Is Taking Care of
Itself Very Handsomely.

Portland, Me, Aug. 2.-The republican
First Congressional district held its con-
vention to-day. After preliminary business
the name of Thomas B. Reed was pre-
sented and he was nominated by acclama-
ton. Later Reed appeared in the hall and
addressed the convention. After adopting
resolutions indorsing Reed and the decla-
ration of principles made by the repub-
lican state convention last June, the con-
vention adjourned.
Following is the speech of Hon. Thomas
b. Reed, delivered at the republican dis
trict convention to-day:
II am very grateful for your continued
kindness to me, and, being in Portland,
il is not unsuitable for me to come here

ties of our soldiers-qualities not dimin-
ished by 80 years of peace-and by the
skill of our ava gunners, engineers and
sailors, which skill the general education
of our people seems to have wonderfully
increased. The unfaltering courage OF
both soldiers and sailors Is a cause oil

after the war will be most troublesome
and will demand the most earnest efforts
of us all. For my part. / hope that al
these problems may be worked out con

ance at the Margaret.

The Children Give an Excellent Perform
ance at the Margaret.
There was an audience that was more
than fair at the Margaret last evening
TO see IN children's carnival. In fact,
considering that this is midsummer,
the audience was exceptionally good.
The entertainment was excellent
throughout, the children acquitting
themselves in a manner that reflected
great credit both on themselves n
upon those under whose direction they
had been instructed in the parts as
signed to them. The dances and tab
leaux were beautiful in he extreme,
and they were all gone through with
out a hitch, a fact that showed care
full preparation. Some of the children
who took part in the entertainment
were mere tots, but their training had
been such hat no false movement was
made.
The greatest hit of the evening was
the child violinist, Lydia, of Butte,
whose performance bordered on the
phenomenal. The child is certainly a
remarkable performer on the instru-
ment, and she Won her way 10 the
hearts of the audience before the bow
had crossed the strings half a dozen
times. Margaret Kelly n little Al
thea lie Ford, two child dancers, did
their work cleverly and were encored.
Miss Kelly took upon herself a number
which had been assigned to Professor
Smith and Mr.. Lawless in a vocal duet,
but which, owing to the illness of Mr..
Lawless, was eliminated from the pro-
Prof. George Abram Smith

A FEW REDUCTIONS MADE

Stone for the Court House.

The county commissioners have been
in session for the past two days as a
board of equalization. They put in the
entire time in listening to protests and
petitions for reductions in assessments
from various people who thought the
assessor had marked the value of their
property at too high a figure.
The assessment of $500 on bar furni-
ture and fixtures of A. Des Lauries was
ordered stricken from the roll.
On petition, the assessment of $1,000
on four frame houses on lots IS and 10,
in block 81, Eastern addition to the
city of Anaconda, was reduced to
5000.
C. G. Birdseye had been cited to APP
pear before the board to show cause
why the assessment of $4,000 on his
stock of goods, wares and merchandise
should not be increased. The board de-
cided to let the assessment stand at
$1,000.
The assessment of 49, 65 on the stock
of John Merrill was also ordered to re-
main at that figure.
The assessment on the stock of Dave
Kaufman was ordered increased from
5000 to 1876.
The assessment of SO, 900 on improve
lltlllS pl " H. N bi'Nh y
Christian Jackey, was ordered to be
left standing at the assessors figures,
$4,000.
Emil Hansen petitioned the board. for
a reduction of the assessment on lot
%, in block 10. city of Deer Lodge,
which had been fixed at $3.50. The
board reduced the assessment to $15.
The board will be in session again to-
day and finish up the business of hear
ing protests and petitions in regard to
assessments.
1t is also likely that the county COM
missioners will. at their meeting to-
day, select the ston to be used in the
construction of h new county court
house.
The bids for constructing the wagon
road from Lincoln gulch TO Helmville,
a distance of IL miles. will be opened
to-day. The time for the reception of
bids expired at II o'clock noon yester-
day, but the board did not get down 70
the work of considering the tenders
n left the matter over until to-day.
There are three bids in for the work.
The road, when built, will afford an
outlet to the farmers of that section to
Deer Lodge, Anaconda and other places
in the county, and will be of great
benefit. The roa is to run along the
Little Blackfoot river.
