Laboring Men All Over the
State Indignant.
WAS BASE BETRAYAL
Withdrawal Insures Hosan's Election-He
Will Get the Solid Labor
Vote.

Butte, Oct. 27.-There is great re-
joicing in the camp of the Independ-
ent Democrats today. All day long,
from earliest morning till late tonight,
kilograms of congratulation have been
pouring in from every county and city
gladness in the announcement of the
withdrawal of Ferguson from the race
for governor. Ferguson's resignation
is looked upon, not alone by Independ.
ent Democrats, but by other conserva-
tive citizens, as meaning sure vic
tory for Hogan. The pulling off of
Ferguson was only another of the
hundreds of blunders Clark's agents al.
ways make, and which always end SO
disastrously for their chief. Never
has Clark been in fight of any kind
but that some of his incompetent work.
ers have put their foot into it so deep
that Clark has always been the suffer
er by the miscarriage of the schemes
which, in the narrow minds of the
boodler's managers were to astound the
world by their ingenuity. Doubtless
Corbett, Neill and the rest of the Clark
managers putting their massive nrains
to work, evolved the grand and gloriou
idea that the withdrawal of Ferguson
would be the coup of the campaign,
the overwhelming blow that would lay
low their opponents.
But while Corbett and Neill we're
engaged in conceiving such a stunning
piece Of political cunning they over
looked the fact that all of Ferguson's
strength was to come from the labor
ing men and that just the moment Fer
guson was no longer a factor in the
campaign that the same labor
strength was going to Hogan, and it
was going to him with a rush. That
was little bit the Clarks overlooked.
Today from every country chairman
In the state, the Independent Demo
cratic headquarters has received tele.
grams of congratulations. Every mes
sage was to the effect that the with
drawal of Ferguson insured an in
creased the majority for Hogan.
But laying all that aside, Ferguson
today is the one man in Montana who
is feeling the burning scorn which is
being heaped upon him by his fellow
men. Labor people had faith in Fer.
guson. They placed their confidence
in him and believed he would be true

THE UBIQUITOUS DEWET.
Still Causing Bobs no End Of Trouble

Still Causing Bobs no End of Trouble.
London, Oct. PA dispatch recei7-
ed at the war Office from Lord Rob-
erts, dated Pretoria, Friday, Oct. 26,
referring to the fighting of Gen. Bar
tons column with General Dewet's
forces on Oct. 25, says: "R-itish losses
were heavier than at first reported
One officer and twelve men were killed
and four officers and twenty-three
men wounded. The Beers left twen-
ty-four dead and nineteen wounded
on the field, and twenty-siX Beers
were made prisoners. Three Beers
who held up their hands in token OF
surrender and then fired on the Brit
ish forces were court martialed, con
victed and sentenced to death. have
confirmed the sentence"
The dispatch also refers to minor at
fairs in which the troops of General
Kitchener and General Methuen weri
engaged and tells of serious Incl
dent between Springfontein and Fill
opolis, Orange Colony, where fifty cav
| airy men were ambushed and captur
| ed by the Beers, rwenty-seven of the
| party escaping. Another dispatch
from Lord Roberts says: Burton ha
attacked the ubiquitous Dewet nea
Frederickstad. Beers were scat
tered in all directions.

to them. This belief was strongly
aided by the constant protestations OF
Ferguson tnat he was in the race To
win and would never withdraw. What
was their surprise, chargrin and humil-
iation therefore then this morning they
read the announcement that Ferguson,
the man whom they had trusted, had
betrayed them most basely Some OF
the labOring men would not believe the
news without confirmation. After
time, however. the fact began to dawn
upon them in it's full significance and
they came to the realization of the
upon them, in a measure at least, by
the man whom they had regarded as
unpurchasable, as honest and up
right. AS soon as full appreciation
was upon them of what Ferguson had
done, their surprise gave way to in
dignation.
"The scoundrel," said they. ito sell
us out in this way. Well, if Ferguson
and his buyer, Clark. think they can
push Toole down our throats they are
awfully Off. The labor vote Of the state
will now go to Hogan solidly. OF course
Hogan would have gotten a big major
ity of the labor vote anyway but he will
get every single man of us"
The laboring men were free in eN-
pressing the sentiment that they al
ways looked with more or less suspic-
ion upon the nomination of Ferguson
anyway. Suspicious carvings on at
Helena, when Hogan was turned down
in favor of the comparatively unknown
Ferguson, was source of irritation
to them from the first and openly re-
sented. Now, however, they are per-
fectly free to vote for real friend Of
the laboring man. A man who has
stood up for them always, who re-
fused to sell out.

O'Brien Lumber Co. Has Not
Yet Decided. >
MAY BE CALLED OFF.
A Prospect That the Sawmill May Not
Be Built Near Here-Some People
Want the Earth.

1t turns out that the announce.
ment in yesterdays Bee that the To-
cation of the proposed sawmills on
Flathead lake had been definitely
settled was incorrect and that Mr..
Burns was taking" for the purpose
of throwing somebody off the scent.
The parties interested in the pro-
ject are very reticent, but enough has
been learned to enable the Bee to say
positively that the site question is
still open, and that anyone of a half
dozen equally desirable locations
may finally be decided upon. Mr..
O'Brien, however, says that if the dis
position to hold up" the enterprise,
which has been encountered in sever.
al quarters, continues to be shown,
there can be no DOUBT that the deal
will be OF. There are several
places in the west where the most al
Turing offers have been made for the
mill, and in view of them, the O..
Brien Lumber Company feel under no
necessity Of being bled by short
sighted individuals in Flathead
county. Last evening Mr.. O'Brien
was so dsgusted that he had just
about made up his mind to call the
whole thing OF. and. if he does, the
averice of few people will have re-
suited in retarding the lumber indus
try of this county for many years.
The establishment of the propos-
ed mill will be to the advantage of
every property owner in this coun-
ty, and Is to be hoped that Mr..
O'Brien may be induced to go on
with the enterprise.

BY A BACK WAY.
Ferguson's sneaking Return to His
Own Town.

Missoula, Oct. 27.-Never did man
feel his disgrace more entirely than
did Judson A. Ferguson, the disgrac.
ed and debauched leader of the So
called labor party, when he returned
to his home in this city today. Fergu-
son got off the train on the far size
and sneaked home by back way,
afraid to face the scorn of the men
who had placed their trust in him, who
had stood by him, who had expected
him to be loyal in return and whom he
has SO basely betrayed. The Clark fol-
lowers had been instructed to hire a
band and get their crowd to meet
Ferguson at the depot and escort him
in triumphal procession to his home.
The band did not appear, however,
but there was quite crowd at the sta
ton to welcome, and some to jeer the
purchased man. The train came in
but Ferguson did not appear. There
was much wonder at this. but it was
afterwards learned that Ferguson had
disembarked on the further side of the
train, gone to the rear, and, with
stealthy steps had hurried to his horne.
Thus has Clark's gold blighted the life
OF another man who once was con-
sidered worthy of trust by his fellow
man, and thus did Ferguson, in sname
and humiliation. return to ihs home.
Ferguson heard the jingle OF Clark S
gold in his pocket, but who will say
that as he sneaked like a whipped cur
through the back streets mat he would
not have thrown the clinking pieces
into Clarks face in return for but a
single nandshake of an honest man.
such as he used to be greeted with
when he came home from trip?

Great Falls. Oct. 27.-At the repub-
lican rally last night, addressed by
Col. Sanders and Col. Copeland. COL
Sanders took occasion to say: "This
disgrace and infamy ought to be en-
blazoned on the hillsides in the val
leys and on the mountain tops. There
ought to be pursuit of any body
who dares to debauch an elector in this
state, SO persistent and so tenacious
as to be an example during all the
centuries to come. In like manner
and from all of Montana's mountain
peaks and from all her valleys there
should roll up a week from next Tues
day majority that shall reinstate this
great commonwealth in the good opin-
ion of mankind. Then can we enter
the new century with loyal and pa
triotic PRIDE"
