still burning fiercely in the interior of the
burned area, but danger of spreading

which they did to secure Ferguson's
nomination without distinct under

confirms this belief.

THANKSGIVING PROCLAMATION,

Washington, Oct. 29.-The state depart
ment today issued the following:
By the President of the United States of
America
A proclamation: 1t has pleased AL
mighty God to bring our nation in safety
and honor through another year. The
works OF religion and charity have every
where been manifest. Our country
through all its extent has been hiess ed
with abundant harvests. Labor and the
great industries of the people have pros
pered beyond precedent. Our commerce
has spread over the world. Our power
and influence in the cause of freedom
and enlightenment have extended over
distant seas and lands. The lives of our
Official representatives and many of our
people In China have been marvelously
preserved. We have been generally ex-
empt from pestilence and other great
calamities and even the tragic visitation
which overwhelmed the city of Calves
ton made evident the sentiments of SYM
pathy and Christian charity by virtue of
which we are one united people.
Now. therefore, I, William Mckinley,
president of the United States, do here
by appoint and set apart Thursday, the
18th of November next, to be observed
by all the people of the United States, at
home or abroad as day of Thanksgiving
and praise to Him who holds the nations
in the hollow of his hand. I recommend
that they gather in their several places
of worship and devoutly give Him thanks
for the prosperity wherewith He has en-
doWed US, for seed time and harvest, for
the Valor devotion and humanity off our
armies and navies, and for all His bene-
fits to US as individuals and as nation.
and that they may humbly pray for the
continuance OF His Divine favor. for con-
cord and amity with other nations and
for righteousness and peace in all our
wavs.
In witness whereof have hereunto set
my hand and caused the seal of the
United States to be affixed.

have deemed it necessary to wait until 20
minutes to IL o'clock on the last night for
filing nominations, to withdraw Fer
guson.
'Those men, many of whom at the con-
vention at Helena had declared that they

for governor, did not have the temerity
to ask me to withdraw in his favor, but

they could then withdraw Ferguson in
favor of Toole. I was perfectly well
aware when called upon by that com.
mittee of the labor party in Butte that
every arrangement had been carefully
looked after by Mr.. Heinze's and Mr..
Clark's financial agents. Even the little
pieces that some of the committee We're
to speak to me had been suggested and
prepared by the literary bureau of these
millionaire labor leaders. There was one
part of their instructions. however,
which the committee did not carry out,
and that was because their courage
failed them at the brazenness of the
task. They were instructed, I am satis-
fed, to notify me that the unions of the
state would repudiate me unless l yield
ed to their request, but no one knew bet
ter than themselves that that was an
unqualified falsehood, and they did not
have the courage to execute that part OF
their instructions. 1t is only fair to say
that there were on that committee hon
est and t ue union men, but they took
no part i'll the proceedings, AMI arc now
supporting me for election today. II
these men desired to be true to the in
terests of the laboring people of Mon
tana, why did they wait until the hour
of midnight on the last day Cor the
substitution of Mr.. Toole for Mr.. Fer
guson, and why was it necessary
for Charlie Clark and Frank Corbett to
furnish the patriotism that inspired their
act, for it is notorious in Helena that
Charley Clark and Frank Corbett were
in close consultation with the commit
tee and those candidates who withdrew
during two whole days prior to their
withdrawal.
Was it not because the knowledge of
their guilt made them afraid to act. and
they deferred action to the last? Was it
not they feared, and had cause to fear.
that you, the union men Of Montana.
would not sponsor such a barter and sale
and they kept you in darkness as to their
intentions until they We're forced to
speak? No false cry of Standard Oil
against me, no pretended devotion to la
boris interest, can shield those men from
excoriation which they so richly merit at
the hands of the laboring people Of this
state.
The statement contained in that ad-
dress that they have positive proof that

TERRIBLE
WRECK

Special to Inter Mountain.
Livingston, Mont, Oct. 29.-The
eastbound Northern Pacific passenger
No. 4 met with an awful accident at
De Hart, a small siding seven miles
east of springdale, at 11:15 p. m. last
night, caused by the spreading of a
switch. The Following is list of the
killed and injured:
Edward Cameron, Raymond, South
Dakota.
W. J. Reifenrath, Billings.
Lester Pendleton, Mount Hope, Wis.
Or. G. G. Hathhorn, Livingston.
Miss M. F. Tracy, Bozeman.
Two unknown women, one supposed
to be from Bozeman and one from the
Warm Springs.
Only two were badly injured, one Of
whom was Sheriff Barker Of Billings.
Ten others had slight scratches and
bruises. The dead and injured were
brought to this city at noon today by
a special train.
DR.. G. G. Hathhorn,, of Livingston,
who was killed in the accident, was
we'll and favorably known Here. On
the same train was w. J. Reifenrath,
who was engaged to Miss Montana
Hathhorn, of this city, DR.. Hathhorn's
sister. This double tragedy makes it
very hard for the Hathhorn family to
stand, who have the sympathy Of the
entire community in their terrible be-
reavement.
The injured will be taken to the
Missoula hospital for treatment. Only
five cars were derailed, which was very
fortunate. This is the worst wreck
that has even occurred on the Montana
Division of the Northern Pacific in
point of the number of lives lost. The
dead and injured are having every
thing done for them that could be
desired by anybody.
The wreck was caused by the break
ing of the connecting rods of the
switch. The train was making up lost
time, and when the engine struck the
switch it's weight and momentum of
the cars behind it caused the rails to
spread, allowing the smoking car and
one other to leave the track and fall
over on their sides. There were not
many passengers in these cars, which
accounts for the fact that no more were
killed.

Helena, Oct. 29.-Thomas S. Hogan
hits back at his traducers who attacked
him in the statement" issued Satur-
day by Dan Mcdonald, John Wyman,
j. A. Ferguson and other leaders of
the labor party, in which he was ac-
cused of a betrayal of confidence. He
issued an address this afternoon to the
union laboring men of Montana, which
is as follows:
ITO the Union Labor of the State of
Montana: I'm taking the liberty of ad-
dressing this communication to you,
have no desire to urge upon you any
claim for personal support. My justifi
cation in addressing you at all is that
the state central committee of the So
called labor party has seen fit to issue
an address to you, and in that address
have passed criticism on me as a uni IN
man and citizen To be truthful,
cannot say less than that I firmly be-
lieve the said address signed by Dan
Mcdonald and John Wyman, as chair
man and secretary of the labor party
committee. and approved by J. A. Fer
guson, F. M. Nickerson, Otto f.
-Schoenfeld and r. D. Myles is as
fraudulent document as has ever ap-
,pealed to public patriotism, charging
where there has been no betrayal, while
1t is itself inspired by the debauchery
of a sacred trust. The intelligent union
men of the state of Montana cannot be
deceived by so flimsy a pretext as this,
behind which the grossest criminality
attempts to shield itself.
THE accusations made against me in
that address are but the inventions of
men who seek to turn public attention
from their own base betrayal of a sacred
trust by attempting to cast reflections
upon me. Had any union man in Mon
tana, up to the time of the withdrawal
of the labor ticket, believed that the la
Dor ticket reported the bona-fide union
sentiment of Montana, they must now
certainly see that instead it was the cul-
mination of the reign of corruption which
has prevailed in this state. 1t will be
remembered that after my nomination
by the independent democratic party
committee of twenty-five waited upon me
in the city of Butte and asked me to re-
sign in favor of Ferguson. / told them
then what / have firmly believed at every
moment since the adjournment of the la
Dor convention in Helena, that Ferguson
was not nominated for the purpose of
election or even an attempt to elect him,
but because of an understanding to with
drawn him in favor of another candi-
date Mr.. NJ. P. Hagerty, who acted as
chairman of that committee, assured me
with all the solemnity of a man about to
make a declaration under oath, that Fer
guson had pledged his word of honor as
union man and a gentleman never to
resign the nomination, and that it was an
insult to Ferguson's integrity to even
suggest that he might withdraw. Had
they succeeded in inducing me to With
draw from the ticket they would not
