he came to make his appointments, and
remembrance of this fact led the dem
ocrats to make firm demand for the
governorship this year. The populists
also insist on having the head of the
ticket, offering in return to support the
democratic senatorial candidates in the
legislature. AS this plan is understood
to be agreeable to the millionaire aspir
ants for the United States senatorship, it
is not improbable that fusion agreement
may be brought about on this basis.
Among those mentioned in connection
with the gubernatorial nomination are
II. l.. Frank, of Butte; Secretary of State
Moore, and F. G. Higgins, of Missoula.
