Time Clark Elected in Wyoming
Culberson Succeeds Mills in Texas.

The millionaire's fight for the Mon
tana senatorship seems to be getting
pretty warm. The Anaconda Standard
of January oath, the personal organ of
Marcus Daily, publishes the following
dispatch from Helena, under the head
ing, Make Clark Put Up The CASH"
ITO every man who has sold or Is
getting ready to sell out to w A. Clark
greeting. When you make your deal
get the real stuff, cash in hand. Clark
has already parted with 100000 in
$1,000 bills, which has passed into the
state treasury. He suspects that more
of his bribery pile is likely to go the
same way, and in that he's right, If
he pays cash. Clark has fixed up a
deal, or tried to fix one up, whereby he
will hand you a check with some name
signed to it-any old name, John Smith
or Tom Brown-giving Herewith a
bond which will be a guarantee that
the check, however signed, will be paid
at once. This will make it easier for
Clark to cover his tracks and enable
him to avoid loss, if some of the men
yet to be bought turn around and pay
their money over to the state treasury
as some of them have already faithful
ly promised they will do, after having
played Clark. The bond deal isn't quite
perfected
The Associated Press dispatches from
Helena say:
1t is now believed that Clark will be
elected, inasmuch as he lacked but
eight votes today, and there are nine
scattering Democratic votes outside of
the Daily and Conrad opposition forces.
Today'S ballot resulted: Clark, So;
Conrad, 81 Hedger (R), Is; remainder
scattering; necessary AZ.
