The Anaconda standard. [volume] (Anaconda, Mont.) 1889-1970, 1899-06-01
BY Way of Spokane.

IF you have time to go away from
home to get the news, take a run
over to Spokane and read what the
| Spokesman-Review has to say, in CORE
| spondence dated at Butte, about the
| general condition Of things on the
banks of Silver Bow creek. According
to the Spokane testimony. Butte is right
| on the ragged ,edge-disturbed, unset
| tied, anxious. THE predominating feel
| ing, these days, is, SO the Spokesman
Reviews correspondent testifies, that.
some time in the future, the pleasant
| relations between labor and capital will
be rudely disturbed, and then the trou-
Bile will begin, which will end in untold
misery and, perhaps, in bloodshed"
Through this Spokane correspondence,
dated at Butte, political thread runs.
We read that "Daly and his powerful
allies have instigated much of the po-
litical gossip about Clark appearing in
the eastern newspapers" Which is as
funny and as improba BILE on it's face as
the effort of Mr. Clarks newspaper was
to make it appear, at first that the
thirty thousand dollars of Clark's brib-
cry money lodged with the treasurer of
Montana was Daily money. The Spo-
kane correspondence also teaches us
that the much Wanted millionaire
mansion in New York. which the Clark
| literary bureau says is to be "a better
house than Whitney's,' is Clark's, yet
not for Clark's occupancy; that CLARK
pursues the even tenor of his way"
| that late June will find him in Butte;
that perhaps he will then make his
plans known, but it is more probable
that he will not" that he is a law
unto himself and "one of the most
affab men in the world" By Jove, the
next you know, somebody will be say
ing that even this Spokane correspond
ence, under Butte date, was instigated
by Daily and his powerful friends"
But there's more than all this in the
Spokane correspondence referred to
there is a whole chapter of Heinze
news in the Butte contribution which
started out to be a critique of Marcus
DAILY. What this correspondent has to
say about Mr.. Heinze is piquant, re-
freshing and, in its essentials, brand
new news. We read that Mr.. Heinze
valued his properties at 10000 600; that
they cost him, probably" S75O,OOO; that
he was Offered s4,O00000 and spurned it;
that he has costly litigation; that he is
zone of the shrewdest operators in the
West" that he would "have accepted
the sum offered him if he had been as
sured that he would be placed in charge
of the amalgamated properties, the po-
sition Marcus Daily now holds"
And, reserved for the last, here's the
best-at least, Mr.. Heinze will say so.
In Spokane they get it this way, out
of the correspondence we have been
summarizing: Now it is said that
Heinze is scheming to be elected to the
United States senate from Montana, to
succeed the Hon. T. H. Carter. To ac-
complish this Mr.. Heinze proposes to
become a bona fide resident of Helena
The Helena people have offered him a
bonus to remove his smelter to that
city, and Heinze is carefully consider
ing the proposition. He is a shrewd
politician and fighter from away back
He will make no move without he sees
beyond a doubt the material benefit it
will be to him. Personally he is a clever
| fellow and we'll liked in Butte, having
| a large following
