THEY WANTED HEINZE,

ification for the recent fusion vic
tory in this state was held last even
ing and was participated in by few
citizens from Missoula and Deer
Lodge counties and about 100 who
came over from Helena in special
train The proposed procession was
abandoned and only the band and the
flambeau clubs paraded the streets.
Big bontires were b,. in front of
both the Auditorium and Suttons
theater, and both places were crowd
ed with all the people they could
contain.
The Auditorium was beautifully
decorated with bunting and flags and
above the platform was large cray
chase of seat in the senate Montana
has indicated. On either side were
vile caricatures of Messrs. Hyams,
Carter, Hogan, Smith and others.
Some way there was a hitch in
the management of the meeting. The
parade was over and the hall filled
by s O'Clock, but it was nearly 8
O'Clock before the meeting was called
to order. The noticeable features
Of the speaking were the failure of
Mr.. ToOle to mention at all the name
of Mr.. Clark Or of Mr.. Heinze to ap-
pear at either meeting in spite of the
previous announcements and the loud
calls for him. At the Auditorium the
greatest demonstration of the even
ing was given at the mention of the
name of Heinze even exceeding that
accorded Mr.. Toole. Mr.. Clark was
also given a very demonstrative
demonstration, although for some rea-
son it was much inferior to that ac-
corded Mr.. Toole. The crowds how
ever, We're all with the ratification
there is no use in Disgusting that
fact, the only disappointment being
the failure of Mr.. Heinze to appear.
The arrangement was that Clark and
Toole should open the Sutton's, and
Heinze the Auditorium, ana the fail
ure of Heinze to show up was the
cause of the delay in the start of the
meeting at the Auditorium until near
ly 8 o'clock. The meeting, after it
had started, was over IN about an
hour. AS minute after minute pass
nI
managers grew very restless and the
band played several selections. After
each selection by the band there
would be another long wait. Finally
someone was dispatched to Sutton's
for Toole to have him come to the
Auditorium.
AS Mr.. Toole marched up the aisle
of the Auditorium preceded by
Charles w. Clark, there was great ap-
plause from the audience. George H.
Casey, who had been chairman of the
local committee, acted as chairman.
AS he called the meeting to order
there were cries of 'Louder!"
Gentlemen" aid Mr.. Casey, "for
the past six weeks l have been so
used to speaking in whispers and
confidential conversations that l have
lost my ability to speak loud.'
That caused laugh. Mr.. Casey
said that he attributed the victory
entirely to the people.
Mr.. Toole, the next governor, was
introduced. He spoke briefly and
declared that the victory was one OF
the people and not his own. It was
a fight against the trusts. He
thanked God that the blinds had been
pulled down from the company store,
and Ae hoped there would be no more
of it. He hoped to see statue of
labor on the pedestal in front of the
new capitol building at Helena.
James Donavan, candidate for at
torney general, spoke next, and de-
clared that if an eight-hour law was
passed by the legislature he would
see that it was enforced during the
| time he should be in Office. There
should also be passed law prohib-
iting a man from buying goods at a
company store and an employees lien
law. He pledged himself to see that
these laws, if placed on the statue
books, are enforced, and that there is
no such thing as their being uncon
stitutional.
