In Butte.

Butte, Nov. 2S.-The appointment

that he was to be the next president
OF the company spoke for itself the
esteem of the men who will in the
future be under his direction. There
is general feeling of satisfaction
among all classes that an eastern
man was not elected. Business and
professional men feel confidence
that matters will move smoothly in
the future. ScallOn was born in
Canada, 40 years ago, and
received his training and education
in that place. He came to Montana
in the early eighties, settling in Butte.
Shortly afterwards he went to Couer

SALARIES REDUCED.
BY Operation of LaW-Deer Lodge
Countv's Assessment Is Redueed


county's Assessment Is Reduced.
Helena, Nov. 2S.-The county COM
missioners of Deer Lodge county
have power to annul their action of
last September when in computing
the total assessment of the county
they made an error of 100000 The
board has the right to deduct this
amount from the total assessment.
Attorney General Nolan held to that
effect today in an exhaustive opinion
prepared at the request of Chairman
Walker of the board of county COM
missioners. This means that the
county will be fifth instead of a
fourth class county, as a reduction
of 100000 would place the valuation
of the property at less than $4,000, 900,
the amount for fourth class counties.
The total assessment of the county
according to the report to the state
board of equalization this year was
$S,OO0,923. If the 100000 error is de-
Quoted as the attorney general says

The Democratic Program for
the Coming
SESSION OF CONGRESS
Increase of the Army Will Be Opposed.
So Will the Ship Subsidy
Bill.

Washington, Nov. Ex-senator j
K. Jones, Chairman Of the democratic
national committee, has arrived in
Washington and statement Of the
attitude of the democratic party at
the coming session and it's general
plan of procedure has been obtained
from him The democratic steering
committee, when it meets in a few
days, will take up and undoubtedly
approve the program.
One of the foremost measures be-
fore the senate, from Mr.. Jones' point
OF view, is the bill for the construc-
ton Of the Nicaraguan canal.
THE canal BILL" said Mr. Jones,
"ought to be passed, and the canal
must be built, owned, controlled and
protected by the United States"
1t was plainly manifest from Mr..
Jones statements that democratic op-
position to the ship subsidy bill of
Senator Hanna ct al would be vigor-
GUS from start to finish. "That meas
ure,' he said "is un-American, and it
is useless catering to interests that
can well take care of themselves"
THE large standing army?" quer-
led the senator. I'VE have heard
much of that proposition for a per-
manent increase Of the regular army
The republicans, however, are bent
on having one. If the present policy
the Philippines is to be maintained.
1t may be necessary to keep Il sufi-
clent army over there, but the demo-
cratic party will oppose with vigor
and vehemence any increase in the
army for service in this county.
"lntoxicated with the recent vic
tory at the polls, the republicans
may attempt to run wild with appro.
priations and especially those which
relate to the army and navy. If
they do they will make a big politi-
cal mistake. So far as they are
able, the democrats will insist upon
scaling appropriations and keeping
them within bounds.
"Of course l for one favor reduc-
tlon OF war taxes. 1t remains to be
seen how far they can be reduced.
The reductions in all probability will
be upon those articles the public does
not consume. The removal of the
war tax from bank checks and a re-
duction in the amount of documen-
tary stamps will not relieve the mass
es generally"

GERMAN EXPORTS FALL OFF
1t Causes a Great Depression in In.

dustrial Circles.
"Ominous clouds which forestal nc
good are arising over the great iadus
trial states of Europe" says Ger
man publication in an article recent
ly published, translation of wh;c.,
Consul Winter, at Annaberg, has
transmitted to the state department
AS to the present crisis in German
industries, Consul Winter says TIA.
the real cause of depression lies in
the fact that German foreign n.:r.
kets have not increased proportions
ately with the increase of home pro
duction. During the past year, he
says German exports to China ana
South Africa have practically ceased.
The war in the Transvaal not only
put an end to German exports to that
part of the world, but cut off the i'm.
port of gold from South Africa st
the same time. The most powe full
factor, however, with which Germany
has had to contend, says the consul
has been the development of inde.cn
dent industries in those countries
where Germany as the exclusive pro
ducer, has always had her best mar
kets. That has especially been the
case in the United States, with all
textile products. For example, en-
sui Winter states that the export of
woolen goods from Greiz alone to tho
United States has made an alarming
drop of from $1,OOS,3 $3.50 in 1895 to hut
$4S,S94 last year.
Without question:" concludes C,n
sui Winter, ''the condition of the
German laborer is not as prosperous
as it was a few years ago. The
of idle workmen is increa ling
and hard-earned savings mus be
used. How long present conditions
will last remains to be seen."

Early in the present year the labor
organizations OF the Pacific coast, in

clusion act. The labor leaders be-
lleve that the exclusion act is being

The labor leaders want to do some
thing to put stop to this immigra.
tion, ami they appointed committee

Tie matter was put off for various
reasons until after election. The OBJ
Jcct OF the organizations is to OBJ
tan the cooperation of the immigra-
