A SALOON -BURGLARIZED

Ex- alderman Joe Sladish's saloon at
600 East Third street was burglarized
this morning between the hours of l and
b O'CLOCK. The building is situated at the
corner of Birch n Third streets. En-
trance was effected by the burglars
breaking a window on the Birch street
side of the building. The cash register
was opened and $40 taken therefrom.
About $50 worth of liquors and cigars
We're taken. The night bartender lock-
ed up at l p. M. and opened the saloon
again ait 5 a. m. He discovered the rob-
berry on opening up and notified Officers
Gardner and Bosanitz, but as yet there is
no clue.
Officer Gardner was on that beat last
might, but saw no suspicious characters
about that part of town. The police
confess that Anaconda has the presence
of a tough gang who have lately come in
and are no amateurs at their business.
1t now transpdres that several attempts
at robbing residences have peer made
within the past three days.

Mr.. Bertsch ran across the street and
as he reached the store, the man was
running into the alley. No policeman

He MET AND
ADJOURNED
-na
SECRETARY DAVE O'CONNOR WAS
THE WHOLE HILL DEMO-
CRATIC CONVENTION.
WAITED vAINlY FOR
DELEGATES TO APPEAR.
Janitor Seconded the Mo-
ton to Adjourn Sine Die
and It Carried.

Probably the most harmonious political
convention ever seen in Butte was held
this morning at the Auditorium. 1t was
the adjourned meeting of the 'hiil''
democracy. That wing had met some
weeks ago in Renshaw hall as the
lar democracy Of Silver O county and
named 122 delegates and 1872 a~lternates
to represent the county in the state con-
vention held in Helena last-week. Then
they adjourned to meet to-day.
Many changes have occurred since the
meeting at Renshaw hall. The state
convention met and recognized the
bankers" as the regular democracy of
Silver Bow county. Then. the 'hill"
democrats bolted and started a new par
ty to be known as the independent DEM
ocratic party" of Montana. The state
convention of the ley party will be held
next Monday and the county convention
next Saturday.
The convention to-day was unique in its
way. There was no pickering, no bar
tering for office, no oratory or long-wind-
ed speeches, no passionate appeals for
harmony, no motions for the appoint
ment of conference committees and 40
gun plays. Nobody even asked whats
there in it," which is said to be the key
note of the democratic campaign.
Dave O'Connor, the secrtary Of the
hill" democracy, was the first on the
scene. Then came two reporters and a
lone spectator, who refused to divulge
his name, and as there was 40 roll call
his identity remains a mystery. The JAM
itor of the building completed the dele
cation present. Dave O'Connor, who
was armed with all the documents neces-
sary to transact business, grew impa-
lent as the hands of the court house
clock toiled onward to the noon hour.
But the chairman came not.
Il move we adjourn" shouted Dave,
after a long wait.
II second the motion" replied the jan
itor, who was manipulating a broom on
the east side of the hall.
Then this convention is adjourned
sine de- said Dave and accompanied by
the two reporters and the lone spectator
the secretary-chairman strobe out Of the
hall and went to democratic ~headquart-
ers to write up the minutes of the meet
ing.
