CAMPAIGN OPENS At MEADERVuE

The Meaderville end Of the Silver Bow
county republican campaign opened last
evening with an enthusiastic boom meet
ing, which was held in Gunderson hall.
The hall was well filled with repubh-
cans and few democrats at the COM
mencement of the speaking, but at the
close they We're all republicans. Several
candidates for county offices occupied
seats on the platform.
The meeting was called to order by Will
liam Stodden, chairman of the Meader-
Vile republican club. Mr.. Stodden in
troduced the speakers, Messrs. J. r.
Grice and Thomas A. Morrin. The ad-
dress of the gentlemen We're we'll pune
tuated with applause throughout and
commanded close attention from the
large audience.
Mr.. Morrin spoke first. Having once
been a resident of Meaderville, the au-
does to water. "Silver Bow county is the
best county of the best state in the

installing Grover Cleveland as president
of the United States and the experiment
was as costly as the task undertaken by

erty and happiness. For half century
! democracy in the United States has been
opposed to everything progressive, while
on the other hand the nation has had to
depend upon the republican party for it's
advancement. After the war of the re-

his mention of the "snake that would

that this candidate for the support of the

hour law and against free text books

lature.
McNally rising in reply, said he held
no personal animosity against any man,
least OF all against the person making
such charges. In 1896. he was elected to
the legislature, obtaining the third high
est majority on his ticket. He explain
ed his connection with the populist eau

books until there was a rider put on the

there was in it. To-day you have free

McNally concluded inviting any person
to ask questions concerning his stand on

LABOR PARTY NOMINATIONS IN DEMAND

One thing was noticed by far-seeing
politicians as the labor convention last
night that appears ominous. There was
a considerable slump in the attendance
of delegates. There was that lack of en-
thusiasm and aggressiveness which char
acterized the first convention and the
state meet at Helena, when liberal
share of the delegation fought hard for
a clean labor ticket from top to bottom
and against the varioloid affliction now
thrust upon them through fusion. The
men to whom "all corporations and mill
lionaires look alike took little or no
part watever in last nights proceedings.
In fact, many of them did not show up at
all. To express it in the meter of Bin
gen on the Rhine there was no cry of

John l.. Davies read the report of the
conference committee, Introducing it by

of the only genuine republican party and
representatives of the horny handed sons

presented for ratification were. Sam NJ.

"No man that got a nomination there
stands the ghost of a show of getting

hour" and differentiated his faction and
honest men, but he got there, however.
Joseph Vogler's defense of Lewis-that
he had been placed upon the "Amalga-
mated ticket" without his knowledge or
solicitation-proved futile, and Lewis
was left in statu quo.
When the order of business was con-
cluded the conference committee was en-
powered to inform similar representative
