Vote For a Republican For
United States Senator.

DuUUO, Aug AS,-1 uc IcSu SultiI IcpuUH'
can county convention was held here to-
day and nominated full ticket, except
one Judge. It is probable that there will
be fusion with other parties on the other
Judge. The convention was harmonious
throughout, there being but one candi-
date for most offices. Only one differ
ence of opinion arose and that was when
some one moved to let nominations go
over until September II, and at this
time choose only state delegates. Gov.
Richards opposed the motion strenu-
ously and it was overwhelmingly de-
feated. J. r. Grice was chairman and
Harry Cunningham secretary. AS most
of the delegates present were old line
republicans, the resolutions denounce
w. A. Clark and the Montana Ore Pur-
chasing company and endorse the eight
hour day law. The following is the
ticket selected: For district Judge,
Frederick w. Bacon; for clerk of district
court, G. F. Lloyd; for members of the
board of county commissioners, James
Davidson, Samuel J. Reynolds and G.
A. Evers; for sheriff, w. R. Young; for
county clerk and recorder, E. A. Ford;
for county treasurer, Byron H. Cook; for
members of the legislature, T. o. Miles,
William Dyer, G. w. Ellingwood, J. H.
Leyson, George Blinn. D. j. Girard,
Thomas Driscall George Pascoe, M. A.
Berger, T. j. Bennett, Sewell Davis and
George Clark; for coroner, G. E. Logan;
for county attorney, Charles G. Kohl;
for assessor, G. A. Lyferd; for coun-
ty superintendent of schools, A.
G. Newill; for county auditor, Her
man Strasburger; for public admin
istrator, Joseph Chauven; for surveyor,
T. T. Baker.
The portions of the resolutions which
refer to Clark Heinze and the eight hour
proposition are as follows:
I'VE condemn in unmeasured terms the
brazen and dishonorable attempt now
being made in Silver Bow under the
direction of w. A. Clark and the Mon
tana Ore Purchasing company, which
company two years ago was in full ac-
cord with and working for the success of
the democratic ticket, to divide the re-
publican party in the manifest interest
of w. A. Clark and the Montana Ore
Purchasing company. We assert that in
endeavoring to fasten upon the republi-
cans the odium of being controlled by a
corporation, w. A. Clark and the Mon
tana Ore Purchasing company have re-
sorted to most degrading coercion among
those in their employ to compel them to
carry out their wishes in an attempt to
disrupt the republican party.
1.-The republican party believes in gov
ernment by majority. We do, there
fore, indorse the theory of republican
caucus in senatorial election, and in
struct our legislative representatives to
abide by the action of the republican
Legislative caucus; and we further pledge
our candidates of the legislative assem-
bly, to at all times vote for republican
for United States senator.
1.-The republicans of state and nation
have always been in favor of the shortest
hours and the highest pay for the labor
ers of the country, and all laws which
have been placed on the statutes limit
ing the hours of labor have been placed
there by the republicans. We therefore
pledge the candidates for the legislature
this day nominated, if elected, to vote
and work for an eight-hour day law"
