SPENCE AND TRUSTS.

The Democratic Candidate for Con-
eress, over the River, Was Quite
Anxious to Get Into the Foundry
Combine, but Was Unsuccessful
That Aetna-standRrd Matter.
Since Candidate Spence has been
making such fuss over the decllna-
ton of the standard manage
ment to allow him to enter the plant
and personally solicit the support OF
the employees step on the part OF the
management which Is well justified, by
the way, as will be shown below-there
has been considerable fun at Mr..
spence's expense, among few well In
formed people In Martins Ferry.
Ut IS A WELL KNOWN FACT"
said a Martins Ferry man to the In-
teIlIgcnccr last evening, THAT MIR.
SPENCE WAS VERY MUCH IN
FAVOR, RECENTLY, OF HAVING
HIS CONCERN JOIN THE FouN-
DRY TRUST. AND 1T WAS OWING
TO HIS PARTNERS OPPOSITION
THAT THIS WAS NOT DOME
This would appear to indicate that
Mr.. Spence. as a business man, sees ad-
vantaRcs In combinations, even though
as n politician he is so violently Oppos-
ed TO them.
AS 70 the Aetna Standard incident. OF
which the Wheeling Register, Cincln-
natl Enquirer and other sheets OF their
Tx have had 80 much to say, the man
aRement simply carried out a rule
that applies to all candidates. Mr..
Hanna. Mr. Mclean or Judge Nash
would have met the same reception had
they attempted Ia make II personal
canvass Of the mills while the men
were Mt work.

hurt the ticket there. Immediately
Steubenyille leaders got into telephone
communication with Mr. Francis, and
the latter was informed that these cir

more votes for Mclean. The result was
that the circulars were taken to back

the chalrmen OF the Democratic COM

f. S. Maxwell Disposes of His Interests
TO j. II. Losce.
A business transfer was made yester-
day afternoon, announcement of which
came In the nature of a surprise to the
people of Anaconda. The transfer in
cludes the dissolution of the partner
ship existing heretofore between j. B..
Losee and E. S. Maxwell, who conduct
ed their business under the firm name
of Losee & Maxwell Theirs was the
first dry goods house in Anaconda. The
business was started more than 10
years ago, and from that time to the
present the store has occupied the
same building on Main street
By the transfer made yeste day, Mr..
Losee becomes the sole ow'/ar of the
business, Mr.. Maxwell retiring. Mr.
Maxwell has just returned from an ex-
tended trip to Puget Sound. Portland
and other coast cities, and it is prob
able that he will make one of those
cities his home, where, it Is understood,
his intention is to open large mercan-
tile establishment.
Messrs. Losee and Maxwell are very
well known in Anaconda, both from the
fact Of their long residence here, and
from their pleasant personal attributes.
Prior to coming to Anaconda these two
gentlemen were associated in business
in Glendale, Hecla, Twin Bridges and
other cities of that region. The stock
of the firm suffered a severe damage by
fire several months ago, but this fact
had no bearing whatever upon the con-
summation of yesterdays transfer.

Mormon Capital a Mecca for Summer Ex-

Judge George B. Winston returned
yesterday from 10-days' visit to Salt
Lake where he spent his summer va
cation. Judge Winston is very enthusi-
astic in speaking of the iAagnificence
of the Mormon capital and Of its beau
tiful environments. There were more
visitors to Salt Lake this year than
ever before in its history" said he.
THE hotels were entirely inadequate to
accommodate the people who sought
lodging. They turned people away
every day. The visitors came from
every part of the globe, and Montana
was well represented in the throng.
One couldn't step a foot out of doors
without meeting an acquaintance from
this section, and the beauty of it all
was that they were all enjoying them
selves to the fullest extent The day
before the return of the Utah volun-
teers from the Philippines the city was
one great jam of people from one end
to the other, and it was only with
great difficulty that one could make
his way from point to point. The man
agement of the Saltair bathing resort
told me there had been more visitors
there this year than ever before

STREETS IN GOOD SHAPE.
The Department Resting After Hard
Siege of Work

Siege of Work.
These pleasant days are great for the
street department. This is about the
first period since Street Commissioner
Shovlin took charge of affairs that the
force has not been pushed to it's full
est capacity. Just now, however, there
is little doing except repairs of minor
nature. The heavy rains and floods
of month ago did a great deal of dam
age to the bitches and cutters about
town, and the department has put in
almost the entire month in repairing
this damage. The work is now COM
pleted, and Mr.. Shovlin is resting on
his oars, so to speak, with a clear con-
science of duty well performed The
streets of the city are now in far bet
ter condition than they have ever been.
and 1t Is the policy of the department
to make improvements continuously.
