TO KILL ONE CANDIDATE.
Anarchists Plan to Kill Either Nc
Kinley or Bryan.

New York, Oct. IA dispatch to the
Journal and Advertiser from Rome.
says: The anarchist Bertollani, arrested
at Milan as a suspected accomplice of
Bresci has made a confession about an
archist plots.
II have known about these plots for a
long time" he said. "It was 1 who sent
the letter to the crown prosecutor at Ma
pies warning him in advance tina alien
anarchists were coming from America to
kill the king but they paid no attention
to my letter.
AT an anarchist meeting held at Pat
terson, N. j., sever men We're selected to
kill kings and chiefs of state. One of
them was allotted to kill Mckinley or
Bryan during the presidential campaign.
I do not know the name Of the man who
was assigned to this duty.
"Therecent Chicago plot was independ-
ent of that Matched at Patterson. I be-
lieve other plots with the same object
have been organized in the United States.
Anarchists have killed kings and
queens, now they should kill a president
of a republic to shOw the world that for
anarchists there are neither monarchies
nor republics, n that a king is as cheap
as a president"

FOLSOM AND

Tomorrow night at Anaconda David
E. Folsom and Col. w. F. Sanders will
address the people. Each of these gen.
tlemen has something important to say
to them. Mr.. Folsom will tell them Row
their interests will be best subserved by
supporting the republican ticket. Mon
tana needs a business man in the execu-
tive chair; it needs a man who will give
his exclusive attention to Me affairs of
state instead of playing politics and
practicing law, as Governor Smith has
DONE. David E. Folsom will give the
state a safe, clean, progressive admin
istration, and when the legislature shall
be in session he will stand like a stone
wall against the efforts that will be
made to advance one interest at the ex-
pense of another in this state, or enact
laws contrary to public policy and COM
mon justice. He will be the right man
in the right place and will insist on a
square lea for all classes of the people.
He will tell the people these things to-
morrow night, and at the conclusion of
his remarks Colonel Sanders, grand, pe~
culiar. but not gloomy, always e%loquent
n interesting, always original and
unique, will submit some observations
on the national outlook.

COMIC POLITICS.

-T-T- HTEH7 49,
HON. T. w. BACORN.

The Inter Mountain takes great pleas
ure in putting a quietus upon the latest
democratic campaign lie. 1t relates To
Mr.. F. w. Bacorn, republican candidate
for Judge of the district court, who IS
accused by professional democratic DE-
famers of being under obligation to John
E. Forbis; ESQ.,, counsel for the Btst9he
& Montana company, for an appointment
as receiver for the Golden Sunlight .AyPR,>
critics in this state.
The story is false in every detail OF
it's makeup. Mr.. Bacorn is receiver yfor
the property. under the order of fudge
Knowles, and with rare executive abit>
ity has so managed it's affairs as to
change it from a losing to a paying prop,
osition. He was one of the orr ginal QWnf
ers of the property. as a member 4fsthe
American Development & Mining COM
pany, which disposed of it to eastern
capitalists, who worked it for some time
and found it Improbable. Later, com
plications arose which rendered the ap-
pointment of a receiver advisable. The

Der to Montana to investigate the affairs
of the concern. These gentlemen had
frequent consultations with Mr.. Bacorn,
in whom they had the utmost confidence.
Finally they decided to apply for a re-
ceiver, and asked Mr.. Bacorn if he would
act in that capacity. He told them he
would. 1t thus became necessary to en-
gage an attorney to draw up the papers
and make the application to the court.
The visiting stockholders asked Mr.. Ba-
corn to recommend a lawyer for that
work, and Mr.. Bacorn suggested Mr..
Forbis, who was accordingly retained.
Mr.. Forbis applied for a receiver in
Judge Knowles court. and it having
been explained to his honor that the
owners of the property desired Mr.. Ba-
corn to be appointed, the necessary order
was made, and Mr.. Bacorn became re-
ceiver, and has acted in that capacity
ever since. Il LtR
Thus 1t will be seen that instead Of Mr..
Bacorn owing his position as receiver to
Mr.. Forbis, Mr.. Forbis yves his employ
ment as attorney in the case to Mr.. Ba-
corn. 1t was a common, everyday bust
ness transaction, and would have been
no reflection on Mr.. Bacorn ever If the
story originally started We're true, as he
Is too honorable a nan to be subject to
any suspicion of undue influence in any
case. The simple facts of the case as
here related, as n IA can verify by
inquiring of Judge Knowles, should be
fully understood. not so much because
OF Mr.. Bacorn. but to illustrate the
methods of the men who are supporting

FRIDAY, OCTOBER II, 1900.
ILLUSTRATIONS OF BUSINESS
CONDITIONS.

The fact that for at least forty years
it's success-nay, even almost for it's ex-
istence, on depressed business conditions,
on poor crops and riots, has been re-
marked so often as to become tiresome.
That the protective tariff and other bust
ness principles of the republican party
lave had much influence in allowing the
merchants and manufacturers of the
country to take advantage of favorable
conditions, and to minimize the effect of
adverse ones, has been so often proved
that by this time the truth ought to be
evident to the most unreceptive demo-
cratic mind.
Yet the old cry continues, and not only
the general business condition of the
country is brought into their superficial
arguments, but also they charge up to
the republican party exceptional matters
that are evidently temporary in their ma
ture, and can not be considered a part
of the general tire ad of events. The more
the people at large learn tina no man
or set of men can control the laws of
nature, but that wise men can avail
themselves OF them for their own ad-
vantage, the more desperately does the
democratic party mold the republicans
responsible for the laws themselves. It
Is highly probable that before the cam
palgn Is finished they will be driven to
such a pass that they will charge the
republicans with criminal carelessness in
allowing the city of Galveston to have
been built in it's exposed position, and
of downright righteousness in trainins
the whirlwind upon Texas in an attempt
to wipe out the democratic majority in
that inpregnable stronghold.
II our democratic friends would be
consistent 1T would not be so BAD. But

A JOINT CONFERENCE.
Miners and Coal Railroad Men Talk
It Over.

New York, Oct. 11.-Representatives of
the coal carrying companies have met
representatives of the coal miners in Sc
cret session. These railroad men were
present: President Walter, of the Lehigh
Valley; General Manager Lathrop, of the
Lehigh o company; President Stearns,
of the Delaware, S~chuylkill ana Suspue-
hanna; r. M. Olyphant of the Delaware
and Hudson, and w. H. Truesdale, of the
Lackawanna.
The miners names were not revealed.
It was learned that there was a pro-
tracted discussion as to what policy
should be pursued after the Scranton
convention had issued us decree. None
was agreed upon positively.

Why Miners Are Interested.

Twenty years g the population of
Butte was about 5000. The number OF
men erlpioyedsin the ~mines was 1880.
The population of Butte is now so, 900,
and the number of men employed in the
mines is 5000. &c
According to the last annual report. of
the state mine Inspector the mine en-
ployes of the Anaconda and allied con-
Germs numbered Over 5000. They num-
Der now not less tbs 1000.

That is one of the issues to be Settled
by the coming election, and the laborinr

Should the democracy win and should
the Amalgamated company be set upon
by the courts, by the legislature and by
the governor, according to programme
and should such persecution result in
the closing of the company's properties,
Butte would retrograde to the position it
occupied twenty years ago.
1t would have fewer men employed

Yet the fact remains that seven men
