Struggle With Wolves.

From the Chicago Chronicle
Miss Maggie Hart, "a young school
teacher at Hobbie, eight miles west of
Hazleton, Pa, lately lived through q
most remarkable experience during a
recent severe storm.
The district in which she teaches Is
remote and conspicuous only for the
wildness which surrounds it.
When the storm visited the Nesco-
peck valley the Hobbie school closed
on Monday. On Tuesday Miss Hart de-
She managed to reach the building,
but before the day passed the few
children who had braved the elements
were either taken home by their par
ents or friends, leaving Miss Hart alone
in the building.
The storm increased in intensity and
by night 1t had reached such proper
lions that the teacher considered 1t
safer to remain for the night. The
heavy snowfall during the preceding
days has already had its effect upon
the mountain animals and was driving
many TO the valley,
During the night Miss Hart was
startled by the growing Of wolves at
the school house door They saw com
fort within and seemed to be goaded by
the blasts of wind which swept through
the forest surrounding the school.
In their efforts to secure shelter they
gained the windowsill and broke u
pane of glass,
II was then that the plucky school
marm's never asserted itself Securing
her rifle. which she carried, a dead wolf
Tell across the sill. A pack of hungry
ANIMALS quickly tore the carcass to
pieces, then made another attack on
the school house. Again and again the
flfe rang out, and the maddened ami
mails were forced to retreat. The next
morning the bones of two wolves were
round near the window, and 1t Is GER
tain That many of the others were
of Hobbie.

~ nee more the Butte Miner comes
~ before the people of Butte and
Of Montana with its whine
Once more it bolts the democratic party
which 1t has failed to destroy and
whines to the people that things were
packed again. What tiresome whine
It is!
Until yesterday morning not a line
had appeared in the Miner about packed
caucuses and packed primaries and
packed conventions. The caucuses were
held at the times and places appointed
by the democratic city central commit
tee. There was no complaint made as
was made last fall that the caucuses
were packed. Employees of w. A. Clark
participated in the caucuses and some
of them were selected as delegates,
There was no complaint in the Miner
that these caucuses We're packed, or
illegal or ''undemocratic." The primar-
les were held regularly under the call
II things were not right, why did not
the Miner advocate beating the caucus
tickets at the primaries instead of wait
ing until it is all over and then whin-
ing? In only three wards were there
any tickets placed in the field in oppo-
word was said by the Miner about ''ir-
regularity" or about an eruption from
the hill' or about the delegates being
'undemocratic." Surely If the primar-
les were illegal or irregular, if the dele
gates were "undemocratic" the time to
protest was before the convention was
held.
If the resolutions were not satsfac-
tory, why did not the Wilmer make its
whine in the convention? There We're
employees of w. A. Clark who were del
egates to that convention. They were
present in the hall when the resolutions
were read. Why did they not rise to
their feet and protest against their
adoption? Why did they not speak
against them and move that they be
not adopted? Were they ashamed to
oppose them? Were they ashamed
even to vote against them?
1t is evident that even Clark's own
employees. knowing well that wholesale
bribery was used to procure Clarks
election, had too much honor to oppose
the resolutions indorsing the democrats
who pulled true and repudiated Clark.
Not one Of them spoke against the res
olutions or voted against them. They
We're adopted by unanimous vote.
But what business has the Butte
wilmer interfering with the affairs of
the democratic party? 1t has not SUD-
ported the democratic ticket for many
years. Let 1t go and find a party for
itself and in the meantime let it mind
its own business.

Z N the city Of Anaconda sentiment is

N the city Of Anaconda sentiment is
drifting strongly towards John M.
Madden as the democratic candi-
date for mayor. If Mr. Madden shall
receive the nomination at the hands
of the convention, his election by an
overwhelming majority is an absolute
certainty. No citizen of Anaconda is
better qualified for the office. Young
clean, honest as the day is long, able,
shrewd and exceedingly popular, Mr..
Madden would be an ideal candidate
and make an ideal mayor To know
him is to respect and admire him. His
record as member of the legislature
was irreproachable-he was looked up
to on all sides as a representative Of
brains and character John M. Mad
den is a gentleman.

The Butte Ticket.
~HE democrats of Butte have GER
tainly shown splendid judgment

HE democrats of Butte have GER
tainly shown splendid judgment
In their selection of ticket to
be voted on election day. Mr.. J. H.
Mccarthy is a sterling citizen, who is
known personally by most of the people
of Butte and is respected by all who
know him. He has served the city
faithfully and well as city treasurer
during the past two years and will fill
the mayors chair with equal ability
and fidelity.
Mr. Nicholas Hughes, the candidate
for city treasurer, is a gentleman of
spotless reputation. In his hands the
finances of the city will be absolutely
safe.
Mr.. Frank Normoyle, the candidate
for police judge, is one of Butte's most
promising young men, we'll liked by all.
The Miner attacks him because he re-
fused Clark's money, but the people of
Butte respect him and they don't re-
spect Clark. Instead of having lived
in Butte only twenty-five months. as
stated by the Miner. he has lived here
most of the time for fifteen years. He
will make an admira BILE police Judge.
In the selection of its candidates for
aldermen, the convention was particu-
larly fortunate. The city needs good
men in the council chamber, and no
better list of aldermanic candidates has
ever been presented for the SURFACES
of the people of Butte. The ticket is
we'll worthy the support of all good
citizens

The Minnesota State Federation O1
Labor convention, which meets here
June IL and 13 it is thought will be
the largest ever held in the history Of
organized labor of Minnesota. About
200 delegates are expected to be in at
tendance and great deal of work
will come before them during the two
days session.
.. That of strengthening and aiding
the unions, that of extending the
work of organization in every part OF
the state and that of devising a plan
# to secure better results from legal en-
actments that will actually improve
conditions of workers, will be
questions be settled blythe conven-
stion.
The members of organized labor find
that the benefit Organization Is
demonstrated in tine attitude of legis-
slators from districts where labor Is
well rsgsanized as compared with those
from districts where there is lack OF
organization toward bills in the in
sterest Of labor. NJ embers from dis
tricts where there is organization are,
as rule, friendly to labor measures,
and, on the other hand, the greatest
amount of anti-labor legislation or
iginates from districts where there is
none, and opposition, as well, to bills
in the interest of labor introduced
from other localities. The representa-
vtives. from the country districts are
generally bitterly hostile to organized
labor.
The question of extending organic
alton throughout the state is, there
fore felt to be as of great Importance
as any that will come before the con-
vention.
OF the greatest benefit to the cause
of organized labor the per capita tax
plan has proven itself to be. 1t has
filed the veins of the organizations
with blood, as it were. Money is the
sinews of war and without it the
most righteous cause must languish.
Since the inception of the plan the
annual income has increased five fold.
Before its adoption, which was in
{ August, 1897, there was "a tax of 81
per delegate at the convention and the
income from this source lid not aver
age 500 per annum. The per capita
tax. which is an assessment of cent
per month on each member of union
in good standing, realizes about 5000
per annum, and if every union in the
state were affiliated the annual income
would reach $4,000.
