THE OLD STORY OF rREACHERY

Fusionists are industriously circulat-
ing reports that certain strong infiu-
ences are secretly supporting the inde-
pendent democratic ticket. The fusion
idea is thai this report will drive repub-
licans to the regular democratic or
fusion ticket.
There is no truth in the rumor. If the
republicans will do their duty they will
win. They have the fight won today.
They have the right cause and the right
ticket.
r. Let the democratic factions fight like
the7famous Kilkenny cats, till there is
nothing left of them III their tails of
woe.
Let republicans stand together and
pay no attention to democratic roor-
backs. They will be circulated at the
rate of sixty per hour till the polls
close.

was rendered by a jury in department 2.
MIR. Connolly and Mr.. Kelley. his chief

pealed the case to the Supreme court,
contending that the law was defective

case against the company, and the case
as decided is reported in the 23rd Mon

decision of the Supreme court, u%pholding
the law, the various mining companies
have complied with 1t, so far as known.

About Wages In Butte.

No mining company in Butte contem-
plates or desires or hopes for any re-
duction of wages. Every company is
satisfied with the existing scale. The
Butte Miners Union is satisfied with it
and abundantly able to maintain it.
The fusion orators who are predicting
a reduction, who are even discussing the
subject. are breeders of trouble and
discord and are the worst enemies Of
labor in Butte. They are seeking to
befool self-respecting and intelligent
Americans. They are doing nasty work
for pay. Their harangues are false from

The Mining Cage Law.

- The fusion democrats will have a big
parade tonight. According to a MORN
Ing paper. one of the ransparencies will

molly. with the question:: What did
Connolly do on the cage law?"
This is h Connolly did on the cage
law: In 1897. the legislature passed an
eaet for doors to. be placed on mining
0nges. In 1899. shortly after MI. Com
helly took his oath of office, a COM
plant was lodged against the Anaconda
COPPER Mining for a violation
of fhis law. The company commended
that the cages as required to be enclosed
by law would be dangerous to the min
ers. and many miners We're of the same
opinion. 1t was also commended that
the law itself was unconstitutional and
defective in it's title. Mr.. Connolly filed
a complaint against the Anaconda COM
pany in Judge H~arrington's office, and
after a preliminary hearing, the Ana
company was bound over to the Dis
trict court for a violation of the law.
On the 4th day of April. 1899. an infor-

A O O TIME COMING.

There is going to be a new deal in
Butte. The old tyranny and the ola
methods of the democracy are to be
wiped out.
The men in charge of great enter
prises here ask only a square deal; ask
only the protection of the law; ask only
justice in the courts; ask only a vote Of
confidence from the people.
Why should this community, which
depends on these concerns for seven
eighths of it's business, vote to run them
out of the camp. to repel their offers of
friendship and deny them the decent
treatment they naturally expect?
What wrong ave they done or what
human being ave they injured?

HIS LITTLE GAME EXPOSED.

The Inter Mountain has denounced as
Infamous f~alsehoods all the campaign
stories about the STANDARD Oil monopo-
lists being a factor in the Montana cam
paign. 1t has repudiated the malicious
yarns alleging any connection between
the republican party and the Amalga-
mated Mining company. 1t has asserted
that all these roorbacks We're invented
for political effect and were paid for out
OF the democratic barrel. The Dexter
letter which we printed yesterday fully
substantiates the Inter Mountains views.
That young man was to receive 81, 900
for filing a complaint alleging that the
Inter Mountain had been bought or con-
trolled by the Standard Oil octopus and
for uttering a lot of other f%alsehoods un-
der oath in order to mislead the people
of Montana. His game is exposed. The
democratic plan of campaign is exposed.

THAT EIGHT-HoUR CHALLENGE.

Thrice has the Inter Mountain de-
nounced the fusion e%ight-hour plank as a
fraud and offered to pay for a legal opin.

Thrice has the Butte Miner declined to

Thrice has the fusion committee de-
clined to agitate the subject on the
stump.
The only eight-hour plank In accord
with which a constitutional eipht-bo,r

nees are the only men who are pledgin

afford to by a copy Of Pearson's Maya
zine this month.
It contains an article on slavery in
the south just before Abraham Lincoln
and the republican party put an end
to it.
There is a colored orator somewhere
in Montana telling his brethren that it
is foolish to keep on voting for the re-
publican party just because it liberated
their race forty years ago..
There are 500 colored voters in Mon

light on the subject Of their political
duty in this campaign.

NATIONAL AID NEEDED.
But Each State Should Also Contrib
ute Toward Making the Good
Roads Movement q Success.

The agricultural department calls
attention, in recent circular, to the
fact that 81 states have created labor
tics, while but half dozen have high
way commissions with jurisdiction
over road affairs.
The average state legislature is start
lingly prolific in measures for regulat-
ing almost every conceivable BUSINESS
that is carried on within the state.
1t does not stop with regulating the
takes shy at the laws of nature, sus-
pending them or repeating them ac-
cording to their own pleasure. Singu-
larry enough. the most important ques-
tion that vitality concerns the indus
trial prosperity of the state-that Of
good roads and how to provide for their
constructions almost entirely ig-
nored by the legislatures. Some of
the states whose legislatures put in
their time fixing passenger rates for
the railroads provide nothing but mud
roads on which the farmer must haul
his products to the market.
The first steps in the Inauguration
of a good roads movement in each state
should be to legalize bureau of high
ways or the appointment of a nonpar-
tisan highway commission, whose du-
ties should be to establish a capable
engineer in each county, to systematic
local laws and locate suitable material
for road purposes. The system Of
working out road taxes" should be
abolished and the poll taxes should be
collected in cash. This, combined with
the principle of state aid, is the only
practical solution of the good roads
problem. In addition to this work on
the part of the state congress should
appropriate funds for the offices of
public road inquiries or the establish
ment of national highway bureau to
cooperate with the states in educating
public sentiment concerning the i'm
portance of good roads and how to
construct them.-Chicago Times-Her-
aid.

WORK IS NEVER DONE.
Horticulture, When Pursued as q
Business, Requires Close Appli-
cation and Hard Toll.

Horticulture, to be profitable, must
persistently be followed. 1t requires
close application and everlasting vigi-
lance. Insect pests, fungus diseases,
ETC., are busy doing their work, in sea-
son and out of season, it sometimes ap-
pears. The fruit grower must meet the
emergencies, apply remedies and COM
bat all foes. If he becomes slack in his
work he may be defeated. There is not
a case on record of an orchard or fruit
farm being worked to death or given
too much attention. At the same time,
an all-round farmer, having variety
of agricultural interests to look after.
may not be able to give his fruit trees
the attention of fruit specialist. But
small orchard and a small berry
patch will require no more time and at
tention than the ordinary farmer gen
orally is able to bestow, so that his
efforts, if properly directed, will bear
fruit. We look for greater specializa-
ton in all lines of agriculture. but so
long as we have small farms, and the
number is increasing, we shall have
the farmer who, while he may be spe-
cialist, will grow fruit sufficient for
his own use. and to do this will bring
into exercise both brain and muscle
every year. Horticulture, finally, has
its ups and owns. the same as any other
business. but those who stick to it
through thick and thin ultimately will
win the prize that faithful. untiring
and intelligent efforts merit.-Farm-
ers' Voice.
Williston graphic. (Williston, Williams County, N.D.) 1895-1919, 1900-06-21
A FEW DAIRY POINTERS.

Use great care in turning to pasture.
Give good feeding of hay in the morn
ing and do not leave them out all
day.
Do not leave the herd out in the
showers. The rains are cold in June
even, and loss will result if careless in
this respect.
Take the world over, there are more
good cows and sensible men than there
are poor COWS and fools. The trouble
is to get the wise men and good cows
together. When we do this fewer men
will be complaining that ''dairyin' don't
pay"
Sour milk may not be relished quite
so much by calves at first, but it is a
good thing to raise calves on if they
cannot have it sweet invariably. A
change of food from sweet to sour &C.
casionally is detrimental to growth,
and often begins scours.
1t should cost you about seven cents
a day to feed your cow-S25 year.
Ifyou practice good principles of farm
ing, her manure should offset the cost
of shelter and labor. Now, if you don't
get enough to pay for the feed, don't
keep her.-Farm Journal.

THE GLOUCESTER APPLE.
(Three-FOurthS Natural Size.)

fng illustration will show, but it is
small enough to meet the require
ments of the fastidious table deco
rator, ana besides is exceedingly
handsome in appearance. The skin
is almost as glossy as satin, and the
creamy white ground color with a
brilliant pinkish blush on one side
shows off the apple to great advan-
tage.
The flavor is mild slb-acid, the flesh
is almost as white as chalk and very
soft and tender, yet juicy and crisp
enough to be pleasant to eat. Among
the other good points is the fact that
it may be kept for the Thanksgiving
and midwinter holidays as far south
as Kentucky. The tree is also said
to be very productive and a regular
bearer, which cannot be said of the
Lady. Those who wish to plant a few
apple trees for the strictly fancy
trade should endeavor to get some of
the Gloucester.-Orange Judd Farmer.
