The call for the Democratic pri-
maries in Sc. Mary's has been 10
sued and 10 printed in this issue of
the BEACON. We hope that it will
be generally read and will be an
swered BY large turnout on the

nothing to gain By factional con-
tests. The issue before them 10 the
selection Of . candidate for Gov
ernor who combines popularity with
the Jeffersonian qualifications Of
honesty, intelligence and Democra-
cy. Select as delegates to the
County Convention men of force
and character and Jon may depend
upon them to send proper represen-
tatives 10 the State Convention.
!, II the fountain be pure, the stream
will run clear. The time has pass
ed when "any old thing would do''
and We need 10 select our best and
most unselfish men. Let rs get
together, keep together, aud, laying
aside prejudices, disappointment
and preferences, fight earnestly for
Democratic success.

WASHINGTON LETTER.


WASHINGTON, ID. c., July 10, '9s.
The Alger- Pingree muddle has
been thickened By Alger's positive
denial that he had made deal with
Pingree and saying that Pingree
had merely offered to support his
candidacy for the Senate because Of
his dislike for Mcmillan. Later
Alger denied that. This sort Of
thing 10 regarded by some as indi-
eating the truth of the story told in
Washington few days ago, alleg-
ing that Mr.. Mckinley intended to
support Alger and oppose Senator
Mcmillan, but others-many 9TH
ers-regard it as nothing more than
frantic efforts Of Alger to retain his
hold upon the War portfolio. The
best informed men in political cir
Giles regard break in Mr.. McKin.
ley's Cabinet a. inevitable. Il may
not be Alger, however, who will 20
ont. It 10 we'll known that the re.
lations between Secretaries Gage
and Alger, never very cordial, have
almost reached the fighting stage,
and not believed that oil of Mr..
McKinley's admitted knack of mol.
LITIGATION can succeed in keeping
Two men 90 antagonistic, in his
official family. Secretary Gage
would have resigned last winter IL
the powerful financial interests hs
represents had not insisted on his
remaining in the Cabinet. He has
never entirely forgiven Mr.. Nc
Kinley fer not recommending the
financial legislation he advised in
his annual report, instead Of merely
commencing the report to the CON.
slderation OF Congress. Mr.. Gage
considers himself the only financier
and regards Mr.. Mckinley and the
other members Of the Cabinet an
mere amateurs. Mr. Mckinley
wishes Secretary Gage to remain in
the Cabinet until after the Presi-
DENTAL election, anyway, because
ne knows that il he retires before
then, IL will bring about . material
reduction in the republican cam
paign fund.
The highest rank held during
the civil way BY Hon. d. d. Hen.

Years Ago Surprised

Thirty-two years ago, when Montana
was a wilderness, a stage station was es-
tablished up the Warm Springs canyon.
three miles above the present site of
Anaconda. 1t was called "Leavengood'
station, and was presided over then, and
is now, by Peter Leavengood and his es-
Unable wife, who came from Kentucky
and are known far and wide for their
hospitality. There was a time when
postage stamps at Leavengood's sold at
10 cents apiece, and the nearest postoftice
was Virginia City. There was also a
postoffice at L~eavengood's, which was the
halfway house between Silver Bow and
Philipsburg and Deer Lodge and Philips
burg. The place has long since ceased
to be a station or tavern, but many a
weary traveller still finds shelter there,
and the parties which have enjoyed Them
never grown less, and probably never
will, as long as Mr.. and Mrs. Leavengood
are alive. They are now growing old in
years, but have lost none of their gayety,
surrounded as they are by numerous
children and grandchildren. Mrs. T. J..
Fleming of this city is their daughter,

to the residence of her parents. The num-
Der which attended was 43, and all rode
in one sled. drawn by six horses, manip-
ulated by Mr.. Flemming. The evening
was one of untold pleasure at the Leaven-
good mansion, with songs, music and
other amusements, while a feast for the
gods was spread. A quartette, composed
of Messrs. George Martz, Ben Morgan,
Ed Davis and Robert Bell, rendered
scores of melodies, and these gentlemen,
with Frank Hill and G. Douglass, COM
posing a mandolin club, made music
galore. The party was composed of these

NINE COCKTAILS.

time industriously shopping. Nothing in

1t was brought her. Five minutes later
she rang again and ordered another.
Scarcely had the boy retreated when an
order for a third cocktail startled the
office. Within the neXt half hour she had
four more.
The office was Thoroughly excited by
his time, and when the ninth cocktail
went up to the young woman authority
went. too, and politely conveyed the in
formation that her room was needed for
another guest.
The girl turned pale and her innocent
eyes widened with urprise.

"But 7 insist upon an e~xrlanation,''

Then she was told frankly that the
Blank hotel did not care 10 entertain

mantel.

what did you want them for?"

A TRANSFERRED CHUCKLE.

Worcester Gazette: A nan who lives
somewhere down Bloomingdale way is not
Dragging any more about an easy way
to get home, a way which he invented and
for some time enjoyed. 1t was his prac-
tice to go into the railway yards, and
when an engine started down toward his
way he would mount the ~cowcatcher, and
was often carried as far as the boiler
works, sometimes further. There are so
many engines, switching back and forth
in that n~eighborhood that he was nearly
always sure to catch one. A few days ago
he went to the yard as usual, and, seeing
an engine starting out in an easterly di-
%rection, he boarded it. The engineer wink
ed to himself. He knew what the man
did not know. The man sat on the cow
catcher and chuckled as he thought of
his friends paying their little five centses
to the Consolidated Street Railway COM
pany. Then he painted f%anciful pictures
of himself sitting in his window looking
out and smiling at the men who had
started for home before he had as they
trudged YEARLY homeward, and he con-
tinued to chuckle.
The engine had attained a considerable
degree of speed when it reached the boiler
works, and the man thought that he was
going to ride further than usual, in which
he was right; but he chuckled again, and
in this he was wrong. The engineer in
creased his speed, and then the chuck!es
passed from the man on the cOWcatcher
back over the boiler into the cab, and
We're picked up and ~assiduously cult
waited by the man at the throttle and his
fireman. The man looked back appealing
ly, but he did not yell, for he knew it
woul do no good. The engineer did not
see the appealing look, for he was toe
busy chuckling. He was going to Farm
ingham. The man thought Of jumping
when the engine began to pass the lake
but the cowcatcher of a rapidly moving
locomotive is not a nice place to JUMP
