MORE STRENGTH
FOR CLARIFIES
SENATOR'S FORCES VICTORIOUS
IN SEVERAL COUNTIES ON
SATURDAY.,
DAILY WING TREATED
TO SEVERAL SURPRISES.
Deer Lodge and Missoula for Clark
Majority in Convention With
Silver Bow Seated,

The result of the primaries held in the
! various counties throughout the state
Saturday evening has greatly added to
Senator w. A. Clerks strength in the
state convention which will bs held n
Butte next Wednesday. The Clark men
now claim a clear majority, with the
DAILY delegation from Silver NV seated
In the preliminary organization.
The DAILY men were treated t. several
! surprises Saturday. Deer Lodge city, in
the home of the Daily democracy, went
for Clark, while Missoula county, where
send a strong Clark delegation. Granite
and Ravalli counties are claimed by both
wings. Jefferson is also claimed by the
Clark people. but it is likely that the del
egation will be divided.
The warning elements of the democracy
concede hat much depends upon the Sc
lection of the temporary chairman next
Wednesday,. Which ever wing secures
him will control the convention, as he
will AVE the appointing of the commit
tee on credentials. I'm the interest of
harmony the DAILY men have made
OvertureS to the Clark supporters looking
to the selection as chairman Of a man
who was not identified with either wilg
Of the democracy, but the Clark people
fear some kind Of a carhop. and will in
! sist upon the selection of a man who IS
known to be loyal to their cause
The DAILY people are supposed 70 have
a few cards up their sleeves for use IN
the great game at the Auditorium Wed
nesday. In the meantime the Clark poo
/ pie are jubilant and celebrating in adj
vance of the victory which they see IN
sight. The two factions of the democracy
are implacable enemies n the state
convention will not be in the nature OF
a owe feast. From present indications
it will be "war to the knife and the knife
to the hilt."

EIGHT HOURS IN THE NIPPER.
JUDGE CLANCY GRANTED RE
RECEIVERS PETITION TODAY.
All Underground Workers Given Eight
Hours at Old Rate Of Pay.

Hereafter Thomas Mclaughlin, receiv-
err at the Nipper mine, will work his
miners only eight hours per day, perm1S-
sion having been granted him by Judge
Clancy this afternoon to do SO.
There is an interesting legal contest
now on in the courts between Michael
Hickey and others IN one side backed by
F. Augustus Heinze, who has a fighting
interest in the property, and the Parrot
Mining company or the other, and IT
was through this contest that the eight
hour proposition for the Nipper came
about. The Parrot company IS a branch
of the Amalgamated or DAILY interests
and a portion of the Nipper is owned by
it. The controversy among the owners
necessitated the appointment Of a re-
ceiver. a motion for which was made by
F. Augustus Heinze. A receiver is an o.
fcer of the court, while acting as recelv-
err, and therefore the receive Tor the
Nipper, backed by the plaintiffs, applled
to the court for an order for the adoption
of the eight-hour system.
The order made by Judge Clancy TO-DAY
winds uD as follows:
"Ordered that eight hours constitute a
davis work for all miners working un-
foreground in the property now IN charge
of said receiver, and that such miners
receive therefor the same wages they
now receive for 10 hours work. Ihls
order takes effect Immediately"
