Joseph X. TOolc is announced. to
speak In LewistOwn tomorrow even
ing and at TIBET Friday evening. 1t
Is quite appropriate that the facts of
his nomination should bc laid before
the people.
When Clark made up his plans for
carrying Muntanu one oi the features
was the starting ot labor party
aud the revival OF the Pupulist party
each 10 serve his ends. Ii wus
promised that "workiugmnu"
should be nominated for governor.
When these conventions assembled at
Helena another corrupt dickcr" had
been made, and JOS. Is, Toulc was
fixed upon ~ the nominee for gov
ernur. Labor delegates and POpu-
lists denounced him ms n corporation
lawyer, the embodiment OF all that
was sought To he ovcrthrown. But
the Democratic whips would not
bulge. The Labor party refused To
accept him and nominated "A candl.
date Of their own. Secretary oiState
Hogan, whom the Populists desired
to nominate, said that he had been
offered four times the salary Of gov
ernor To get out oi the way, but that
neither the Amulgamatcd Copper Co.
nor the United N0rde had money
enough To buy him. But they nc
cepted Clark's j. X. ToOlc just the
same.
Mr.. ToOlc was nominated by the
Democrats Friday afternoon and de-
clined It. An adjournment untileyen-
ing ensued. When the convention
reconycned Democrat announced
that Mr.. Toole had changed his mind.
Mr.. Neill moved the appointment OF II
committec-one from each county
to escort Mr.. Tuole To the platform.
He was interrupted By the leader of
the Clark delegation from Silver Bow
Mr.. kilgallon-whO nominated Ii.
l.. Frank Tor governor, adding that
Mr.. Toolc had declined and Mr.
Ftank would agree to take 1t. Mr..
Ncill's motion was met 10y IA loud cry
OF "ancs. Chairman Cooper refused
to recognize Mr.. kilgallon and put
Mir. Neill's motion. He declared the
motion lost, which was IN effect a de-
eision that the convention wanted no
more OF Mr.. TOOlc.
4 division was demanded and the
roll OF counties was called, The vote

Mckinley g. Roosevelt Clubs
Started at Stanford, Utica
and Philbrook.
MAIORITIES SIGN The ROLLS
AT Philbrook Twenty of the
Twenty>one Residents in
Town Joined.

Mr., Cheadle, Mr.. Croft and the
other members of the eparty who went
to Phlibrook, Utica and Stanfordla
week to organize Republican clubs
in those thriving young towns
have returned to this city. They are
much pleased with the successful out
come OF their journey and are able to
report the formation of Mckinley
and Roosevelt club in each of those
places. Republican ideas have taken
a firm hold I'm each OF the communi-
ties visited by them. Even 10 Utica,
which in 1896 was hopelessly Demo-
cratic, the people are drifting away
from their old ideals and there are
healthy manifestations of great
change and a tendency to endorse
Republican methods and Republican
principles.
Last Thursday night a meeting
was held at Philbrook. There had
been but one day'snotlce OF this meet
ing given, through some oversight
or misunderstanding, but notwith-
standing the shortness OF the time ~
out Of the q residents of the town
Joined the club. The first meeting of
the new organization occurred on
Saturday evening, and ut that time
several new members were added to
the club roll. II. Montgomery was
selected AZ president, Thomas Wad-
dell as secretary, and c. VI. Goodell
was chosen to act as treasurer. Mr..
Goodell says they will be able to
double the membershipin very short
time.
On Friday evening Mr., Cheadlc de-
livered his lecture upon the Philip.
pines to a large and appreciatiye
audience in Utica. The meeting was
presided over ny j. q. Huntoon, the
well known Great Falls attorney.
The same night Messrs. Belden, Leh.
man, Woods, and the other organ
izers assisted In the formation of an-
other club at Stanford after thepolit-
ical rally held there that evening,
but, owing to the lateness OF the
hour, IA great many were not able 10
stay, and only II names were added
to the roll of the club membership
This list will be enlarged at the very
first opportunity so as to include
those persons who were not able tc
join before, and there is no reason
why twice the original number o
names should not be secured.
An especially large and enthusiastic
meeting was held at Utica on Satur
day evening, when i0personss stepped
forward and signified their willing
ness to enroll themselves as members
OF the new club. Mr.. Belden and Mr.
Cheadle made brief addresses after
the ceremonies oi organization had
been performed, their remarks being
well received. j. NJ. Campbell was
chosen president, Z. W. Korrell, sec
retary, and JEFF Tubbs, treasurer
The membership OF the Utica clul
will also be increased to twice IL.
present size within n very short time

FOUR VARS AGO.
Woolgro~ers and All Who Desire Pros
porous lines Should Remember.

While the Democrats OF Montana in
the wool growing districts are doing
everything within their power to
again turn the state over To Bryan
do they stop for n moment to con
slider what the election OF Bryan
means To the wool industry alone?
-Four years ago with a Democratic
president in the white house the
wool industry, the second largest In .
dustry In the state was completely
paralyzed. Many OF the growers
could not at that time get an offer
on their product, while in most in
stances growers were forced to sell
their tleeccs at 4 ana : cents IA pound.
Ii Is almost unnecessary To call the
attention Ui voters to 'he changed
condition ol affairs In the sheep in
dustry ~ compared with four years
ago. Then nearly every man who
was n sheep owner was ON the verge
OF bankruptcy while now most of
these very men are completely out OF
debt aud have money in the banks To
their credit.
But the average Democrat will tell
you that there are comparatively
few men engaged In the sheep indus
try In Montana aud why lcgislate In
favor Of a few against the masses?
Theman who makes this kind Ui an
argument does not Ur will not real
ize that every town with few exccp.
tions lying east OF the mountains in
Montana has prospered during the
past four years largely on account Of
the prosperity OF the sheep industry.
That industry has been brought out
OF the stagnant pools Of depression
into which it was thrown 10y u Dem
ocratic president and the proper
safeguards thrown around It by a
Republican president and congress
and brought up to the standard Of
value in which Mr.. Cleveland found
il when Mr.. Harrison turned over
the reins of national government.
The continuation OF the prosperity
OF the sheep industry in Montana
will mean the continuation Of pros
porous times for every merchant,
mechanic and laborer who lives in
the towns in Montana where sheep
husbandry largely makes up the
rural occupation. Destroy that ia.
dustry ana you destroy the prosper
ity Of the cities aud towns Ia this
state adjacent 10 the live stock
ranges.
The Democratic politician or the
Democratic newspaper in Montana
sending forth appeals to stnnd by
Bryan and especially 50 in the wool
producing districts, does that which
has for its ultimate object the depre-
citation Of the nsscssable wealth in
half the counties III the state aud the
curtailing Of the volume of business
annually by ut least fifty per cent.
And still there are people, sane upon
all other subjects, who will encour.
age and applaud this Democratic
programme of destruction.

The Republican campaign in Fer
gus county was actually opened at
Stanford Friday evening, when Hon.
S. G. Murray and Hon. W. III. Smith
addressed as many as could be gath
cred In the school house. But the
grand opening was in Lewistown
Saturday evening, Culver's hall being
packed with probably six hundred
gentlemen, many accompanied by
their ladies.
The plan to have torchlight pa
rade was evolved during the after
noon and very few knew OF it until
the band struck up ut the fire station
in the evening. But, notwithstand-
ing SO few We're prepared and conse-
quently did not join until the process
sion reached Main street, probably
upwards of one hundred and fifty
carried torches and assisted in the
constant cheers for Mckinley and
Roosevelt which marked the progress
of the procession; which was led by
the band.
The hall had been beautifully deco
rated and the audience which assem-
bled was so large that "A great num-
ber were compelled to stand. Many
ladies were prominent in the rows
nearer the stage.
On the stage were seated, beside
Chairman Brassey, the speakers, Mr..
=. G. Murray, nominee for congress,
and w. II. Smith, OF Great Falls, sew
eral of the local candidates and other
republicans.
Edward Brassey acted as chairman
OF the meeting and in introducing the
speaker of the evening said:
Ladies and Conference.-The most
important political campaign since
the campaign OF 1864, which occurred
at the close OF the civil war and ter
minated in the reelection Of the first
Republican president, Abraham Lin
coin, Is before us. When we talked
OF Lincoln he was considered the en-
bodiment of Republican ideas and
principles; hut l have been reading
the Democratic papers for the last
three or four months, and | would
infer that he was Democrat. do
not believe that the election OF Mr..
Bryan four years ago would have
been nearly AS disastrous upon our
country as his election this fall, for
the reason that, thanks tofour years
Of Democratic administration, we
were then just about as low down as
it was possible for us to get. We
were selling bonds for the current ex-
penses OF the government, our treas
ury was depleted, our finances, do
nestle and foreign, were in Il state of
Generalization. Now it Is different.

tion and now, instead Of selling bonds
