Montana politics. Here is what a writer
for the Telegraph, who signs himself
1.-THE Disturber.'' says:
Colonel George Walker who manages
circuit of theaters in Texas and Is at
present in New York. tod me a rather
interesting story in connection with the
recent election in Montana.
"A little personal and political history
was made during the last campaign IN
Montana said he. e. ]. Frawley and
j. j. Blake. graduates of the University
of Wisconsin Law School, established 4
law partnership in Helena shortly before
the time for nominating candidates. They
were both democrats at that time. Soon
after the firm was established Frawley
surprised his acquaintance by throwing
off the robes of democracy and joining
the ranks of the republicans. He became
SO active a partisan that he was given
the district attorney nomination. Mr..
Blake appeared to be vexed. He stood
by his party, stumping the state for
democracy and free silver His services
were likewise rewarded by the nominal
ton of his party for the office CT district
attorney.
Being unable to agree politically, the
two lifelong friends dissolved their law
partnership and exposed each other
weaknesses to the public in their active
campaigns. The republicans won, and
Ftrawley secured the coveted office. The
heat of the campaign having passed, the
two old friends found that they had mis-
judged each other, came to an under
standing and went to prac.icing law
again in the same office. Now they d.

IT'S HIS FIRST SERMON
Rev. A. T. Osborne at the Meth
odist Church South.
is A FORCEFUL SPEAKER
Preached to Large Congregations-Four
characteristics of the Church Mill
tant-Four Faces In the
Vision.

Rev A. T. Osborne, the newly ap
pointed assistant pastor Of the NJ. E.
church south, preached his first sermon
In Butte yesterday morning at Odd Eel
lows hall, where the services of the
church are now being held pending the
erection of the new church. Rev. Os-
borne preached both morning and even
ing to congregations that filled the hall
on both occasions. Rev. Osborne is a
young man and a forceful and eloquent
speaker. His sermons yesterday were
able and he made a good impression.
At the morning service Rev. Mr.. Os-
borne spoke in substance as follows:
1.-THE old prophet of Israel was stand
ing upon the banks of the river Chepar
and looking down into the coming vista
of the church of God He saw certain
characteristics of those who were to be
members of the church militant in the
world Four of these characteristics
are forcibly illustrated by the four faces
beheld in the vision
Il. When God created this beautiful
world He looked upon the work and saw
that it was good, but when man, the
very climax of all creation. fell from
the plastic hand Of his creator, he was
pronounced very good. In His own
image created He him. Therefore,
when we study the face of a man. the
idea of intelligence, forethought, wis
DOM presents itself to our minds for
our consideration. Man is the wisest
creation God ever created, hence Ez,
when he saw the face Of man, saw
that wisdom would be a characteristic
of those who We're to become members
of the kingdom of God. The religion of
Jesus Christ makes possible unto the
sons and daughters of men the sweetest
peace and highest joy in this life and
purchases unto them eternal life after
a while. Therefore, we are persuaded
that the prophet was not mistaken
when he saw the face of a man and in
that saw that wisdom should be a char
acteristic of the people of God, because
it is truly the part of wisdom's way tc
accept that which doth bring the great
est good. The fool passeth on and is
destroyed, but the wise man consider
eth his way.
I'll The lion is the king of beasts
and the most courageous of all animals
and thus the face of the lion indicates
that the people of God are people
courageous, brave, true. The spirit OF
the lion characterizes the lives of the
heroes and heroines of the illustrlous
past in the history of the church of God
That is the spirit needed in the church
of to-day. To believe you are able /:
almost to be so. A good cause makes
brave heart and the spirit of the lor
is to bring us final victory.
iii The OK is the most submissive
of all creatures. and we learn lessor
of humility and of fortitude from him
The well trained oxen pull together, an'
the church must be united in her effort

IT COVERS MANY MILES
The Rocky Mountain Bell Tele-
phone Company.
FROM NEW YORK TO'FRlSCO
Omaha to Denver Is the Only Missing
Link-New Line to Salt Lake Will
Be Literally Patronizsd
ID by Butte People.

In speaking of the completion of the
Butte and Salt Lake line and the expan-
sion of the telephone service in the
Northwest, President Wallace of the
Rocky Mountain Bell Telephone COM
pany is quoted as saying:
There are 413,72O square miles OF
country covered'by the Rocky Mountain
Bell Telephone company. In all, 210
cities and towns are connected in the
states of Utah, Wyoming, Idaho and
Montana. In Utah every town Of 500
or more inhabitants, except u, has tele-
phonic connection, and in a year there
will be only two towns of 500 population
not connected. Every such place in
Idaho is served except four, and in two
years only one Idaho town of 500 will be
left out. Two years hence only nine
Montana towns of 500 people will be
off the line. while now II such towns
are not connected with the long-dis-
lance system.
when Omaha is linked with Denver
conversation can be carried on from
New York to San Francisco via Salt
Lake and the Northwest. You could
talk to San Francisco now, but the line
is so much in use that local lines will
have to be built here and there in Wash
inton and Oregon to make the through
wire practically independent before the
public can get satisfactory service from
it,"
President Wallace thinks the new line
to Salt Lake will be literally patronized
by the people of Butte. Based upon the
rate of a cent mile for use Of the
phone wire to Butte, the charge for five
minutes conversation will be 81 but
the tariff is graded down in proportion
for less number of minutes. A talk Of
one minute will cost $1.70. and for half
a minute IS cents. Telephone mileages
are less than actual distances. Two
hundred words a minute is the average
number of words spoken through tele-
phone. It is claimed that statistics
show that long distance telephone ia
cilities do not seriously affect the num-
Der of telegraph messages received and
sent, but it saves business people time
and money spent in railroad travel

If she hopes to succeed. In unity there
Is strength The OK never does his pest
until he gets on his knees and so the
church never does it's best until, like
the OK, it gets upon its knees. Some
oxen become i'll and kick at everyone
and everything that comes about
Sometimes an old OK in the church fol-
lows the example and kicks at every
thing which is attempted unless, per-
haps, he is asked to be the leader. 1t
occurs. too, sometimes, that a true ano
trusted OK will get sullen. You can &c
nothing with a sullen OK. The pest way
in the world to manage them Is just &c
go off and leave them alone. l never
worry much about a sullen churcf
member. l just leave them alone, and
they soon get all right There Is one
feature about an OK which is always no.
ticeable. When he gets sullen he al
ways has his tongue out.
Nv. The eagle has been chosen as
our national emblem you see 1t printed
on documents belonging to the United
States. Before I became a minister l
used to see the eagle stamped on com.
The eagle illustrates in our lesson the
spiritual liberty of a child of God. AS
we love national liberty and are willing
to fight for it. let us love spiritual lib
erty and work to that end. If the
spiril of Christ shall make you free
you shall be free indeed.

r opics Of
the Town

One Of the hottest games of the pins
yet played in Heilbronner's bowling al
ley occupied the boards for short time
Saturday evening. There were three
teams of two men to team,
each team representing po-
litical party. Tom Kinds and
Swede Murphy were for the populists.
Jack Hammill and Harry Ayrshire for
the democrats, and Ike Heilbronner and
Mr.. Lovejoy for the republicans. In
the first game there was close finish
between the democrats and popul1sts,
but the democrats finished neck
ahead. In the second game the demo-
Gratis had an easy time, rolling up near
ly as big a score as the populists and
republicans combined. The republicans
finished second in this game. Murphy
remarked that the reason the populists
made such a poor showing was that
bowling is too much like work and pop
ulists are no good at that.
Florist Mitchell has made such a splen-
did success the past season with the
cultivation of flowers at Columbia Gar
dens 1t should encourage all resi-
dents of Butte to try once more to raise
flowers and grass in their yards The
ga dens are visited by Butte smoke
probably as frequently as the resi-
dences in the western part. Of the city,
yet never were flower beds more beau
tiful or abundant than those at Co
lumbia Gardens. 1t is hard to make
things grow in Butte, but 1t can be
done.
Yesterdays gentle fall of snow was a
pleasant reminder of winter which dis
appeared from Butte the latter part Of
August. 1t was feared that Butte might
be subjected to the annoyance of a
long and dreary summer, but that is
not to be. We have only had the tedi-
UNI of about a months summer and
can welcome the return Of winter once
more.
Bad weather, by the way, Is the only
thing that can prevent the return of
| the Montana regiment to Butte from
being the greatest event In the history

enough, food enough, soldiers enough,

all UP to the weather.
Several societies are arranging tic

London Markets

London, Oct. 1.-The stock exchange
last week was almost at a standstill ow-
ing to the suspicion regarding the Trans
vaal situation. A few remained who have
not given up hope, but the general i'm
preston is that the sooner hostilities be-
gin the better it will be for the market
as the uncertainty is killing business and
causing prices to dwindle daily.
Business except, perhaps, in Americans
and West Australians, has been practical
~ paralyzed for some time. Within two
months, according to the Banking Maya
zine. the values of 300 representative Sc
curities have deprecated, some to the
amount of millions sterling. while it is
impossible to say whether the bottom has
yet been touched.
In some quarters the theory obtains
that the effect of the hostilisies has al
ready been discounted by the fall in
values which has already taken place and
that prices will recover after the first
shot of the actual encounter. But, as
we have entered upon a period of dear
money. it is likely that prices will fall
further before there is a permanent re-
covery. The gloom of the market is pro-
found and everything is more or less
down. Consols last week touched 103%
the lowest figure in several years. Many
other gilt-edged securities went dowr
from a to per cent. Americans are suf.
fering from the same cause, as we'll rs
from realizations, and from New Yorl
selling due to the sharp rise in money
The fall in most cases last week was
from a quarter to a half.
Money was unsettled. The rate on Mon
day was Az per cent. on call, and 4@41i
per cent. on three months bills.
