Gen Henderson has been a member oi

He is one of the strongest leaders on the

an orator he is without peer.

an organization and as individuals, and
exact pledge from him that he will sup
port d. b. Henderson for the Speaker
ship of the next Congress.
If your member of Congress refuses, or
is non-cOmmittal, knock him out at his
next nomination. We want our comrade
for Speaker, and intend to have him
there. If we should not get him, we shall
know who voted against him, and so
voted against us. Let us show the peO-
pie that the old soldiers, "back numbers"
though they may be accounted by some,
are still powerful, and can WELD a potent
influence that will be felt now, as it was
in the days from '61 to '65.

if we don't help each o;her, who will?"
Another, in Iowa, after asking for copy
of the bylaws, adds: 81 think we could

From one of the largest cities in Ohio a
comrade writes: 81 am Vice-President and
ex Commander of the Soldiers and Sail

A second Michigan comrade says he
read about the League movement in The

would like to have the bylaws, for all we
get is promises and slurs for what we

IT WAS LIKE A LOT Terry
Lively Bidding at the Express
Company's Sale.
SOME STRUCK BONANZAS
Government Bonds and Rolls of Bills
Have Been Found in Dead Pack
ages - 1t Was Quick
Sale.

Much interest was aroused yesterday
in the auction sale of unclaimed ex-
press packages by the Northern Pacific
Express company. The sale took place
in large office in the Mantle & Biel-
enberg block, the rear of which was
piled nearly to the ceiling with boxes,
trunks, valises and packages of all
kinds. The sale started at 10 o'clock
and was over soon after o'clock. Su
perintendent Hay, who has had charge
of such sales for many years, said that
it was the quickest sale he ever saw,
and as much again could have been
sold if they had 1t. The entire accum-
ulation of the company could have been
sold by 6 o'clock.
There was just enough of lottery to
the sale to arouse Butte's gambling
spirit and the bidding was lively. No
one could tell whether there would be
prize in his package or not. The arti
Giles We're bid on unopened. The pur-
chasers sometimes opened their pack
ages in the hall and sometimes carried
them away to examine them beyond the
view of joshing friends. The fact that
in previous sales rolls of bills and gov
eminent bonds have at times been
found gave zest to the sale.
Everything was sold. The sale in
cluded the accumulation of the COM
pany between Chicago and Butte. Up
ward of $4,000 was realized by the com
pany on the sales. These sales take
place every two years at some point on
the company's line. This is the first
time the Northern Pacific Express COM
pany has had a sale in Butte, but the
Pacific Express company had one here
few years ago.
Boyle acted as auctioneer He held
up three packages and % cents was bid
and they were struck down. The pur-
chaser claimed he only meant to offer
rs cents for all three packages, but the
auctioneer claimed the bid was rs cents
for each package. The purchaser finally
paid the six bits and found his moneys
worth in one package
The packages brought all the way
from % to so cents, the valises from 81
to SO and the trunks from So to SIS.
Shabby yalises and trunks brought
quite as much as more serviceable va
Uses and trunks, the idea of bidders be-
ing that valuable articles are more
likely to be slowed away in shabby
than in more presentable receptacles.
A voting machine billed at 1915
brought $3.50.
A package marked of the value of
SIT was struck off for 40 cents.
Three new Hotchkiss guns, worth ST.,
were sold for $3.50 each.
Three trunks on which the express
charges alone amounted to $50 brought
from $12 to $14 apiece.
John Whitesides, bought set OF
sleigh bells for 80 cents.
Ike Heilbronner bought bale of San
Diego marsh grass, assorted colors for
16 cents.
Sixty-five cents was paid for a small
package which was found to contain an
Elgin watch in gold filled case.
The company did well on the sale,
and while some of the buyers got little
for their money, most of them got its
full value and some struck bonanZas.

usually large expense. Rents are high
and such quarters as the association
needs are very hard to find. The mod
ern association needs a somewhat ex-
tensive plant, to include gymnasium.
educational class rooms, extensive bath
rooms, social and game rooms. etc.
THE present association plan is the
outgrowth of over so years experience
and is vastly different from the plan of
20 years ago.
THE association is now intensely
practical and, as a result, the great
buildings all over the country are
crowded with young men, eager for the
educational and social advantages Of
fered. Thousands of young men are in
the evening schools, where they are
taught the practical things that will
help them in their daily employment
Thus they are not only kept from evil
ways but actually advanced in their
position in life.
1.-THE association has taken up many
lines of work for special classes. The
College Y. M. C. A. is the largest col
lege society in the world and exerts
powerful influence on college morals.
The Railroad association is established
on most of the great systems in the
country, the Northwestern lines being
the chief exceptions. The corporations
give the chief support to this line of
work and over so per cent of the rail-
road mileage of the country is now
contributed annually to the work. At
the present time associations are being
equippel at the division points of the
Union Pacific, buildings being erected,
mainly at the expense of the corpora
ton.
le late Cornelius Vanderbilt was
lifelong friend of this work and per-
sonally contributed s235.O00 to it. He
was an active member of the interna-
tional committee.
1T is well known fact that the ma
tional government committed the social
and religious work in the army to the
association in conjunction with the
army chaplains and that a hundred
tents, fitted up with association con-
veniences and manned by $50 secretaries,
were the popular places of resort in all
our great war camps. crowded day and
night with thousands Of soldiers. Gen
erals Miles, Brooke. Lee, Colonel Bryan
and all the prominent officers agree that
the association was their chief reliance
in maintaining the morals and disci-
pline of the army.
1.-THE association has proved it's adapt
ability to every class of men and has
won support from the most practical
business men. To-day it owns more
than 2O,00OO00 Of property in buildings
and is gaining a million every year.
The city of any consequence without an
association building is now an excep-
ton. These buildings multiply the
power of the organizations and make
them the leading institutions in main
tanning the moral standards of the
cities.'
Mr. Ward said that he was hopeful
concerning the outlook in Butte, but
has yet to test the question of financial
support. Unless that is liberal, it will
be impossible to meet the conditions in
this city

A GOOD OUTLOOK
FOR THE Y. M. C. A.
Secretary o. the International Com
mittee Is in the City Looking
Over the Ground

c. S. Ward, secretary of the interna-
tional committee of the Young Mems
Christian association, IS in the city,
in response to a request made last win
ter when the question of organizing an
association in Butte was discussed. At
that time the matter was postponed by
advice of the international committee
in order that, when organized the asso-
citation might be on the best and most
permanent foundation. Mr.. Ward said
that the previous efforts to organize an
association in Butte had failed princi-
pally because the city had been SO far
removed from the supervisory agencies
of the association, there being no state
organization in Montana and the head
quarters of the information committee
being at New York. Recently. however,
the committee has established offices at
Chicago, Kansas City and Minneapolis
and Mr.. Ward, with headquarters at
Minneapolis, is in permanent charge of
the Northwestern work, including Mon
tana. Thus he expects to have per-
manent relation to the work in Butte.
Relative to his mission. Mr.. Ward said
yesterday:
Butte is the largest city in America
that has no Y. M. c. A, and it prob
ably has the largest number of young
men, in proportion to the population, of
any city. Other cities of this size hava
not only well organized associations,
but association buildings costing from
S25,o00 to 100000. There seem to be a
hne lot of young men here ready TO
organize and there is, apparently. no
dlff1culty in securing a large member
ship, which will pay fair membership
fee towards its maintenance
