In the senate the balloting was not
interrupted by any speech making or
other incident. The senators had al
ready had their fill in the discussion
of the Connolly resolution
In the house there were two speeches
made. When Hedges, rep. of Fergus,
cast his vote for T. c. Marshall he pre-
faced his ballot by saying:
II cast this vote, not as an empty
compliment, but for the principle that
is represented by the man for whom. 1
vote'
Judge Stephens of Missoula made a
lengthy speech when his name was call
ed. He said
Il rise on this occasion to cast my
vote for w. G. Conrad, 1 want to say
that I am personally acquainted with
| him and that l have been for great
number of years. He is a gentleman
and will, l am sure, do his duty if
| elected. He is a gentleman who will
be recognized by members of the legis-
| lature as clean man with good
record. l am certain that he will give
| the state what it needs and that he will
| be faithful to his people and to bis
party. I want to say right here that
| there have been warning factions in
| the democratic party too long, and that
it Is now time that this strife should
cease. Under the circumstances in
which the events of this morning have
| placed us, it is essential that we should
bring up a new man, one who has not
been in any way identified with this
| factional strife. Such man is W. G.
| Conrad
| Judge Stephens then continued for
some minutes, urging a united democ-
racy, democracy that will stand firm
ly together and will be invincible. His
| speech was received with applause and
| even if it was little longer than some
of the members wanted, it hit the nail
on the head and has been favora bly,
commented upon this afternoon. These
| two were the only speeches that were
| made. When Mr.. Speaker cast his bal
| lot, there was ripple of applause
| which was ended by the announcement
| of the result of the ballot and then the
| first voting for senator was ended. w.
| A. Clark has disappeared from the
field and a new democracy had sue
ceeded the party that his vile and des-
| picable methods have trammeled so
| long and have more than once come
| near to wrecking. All members of the
legislature, except those whose conduct
has placed them on the anxious seat,
are well pleased with the result, and
the subsequent ballots for senator will
be something more than a register CT
| purchased votes.
