keep the Creamery. aise.n.

A Canadian dairy instructor says:
am sorry to say that the ereameries
of Canada are not being improved as
much as they should be, particularly
ton, in providing suitable store
rooms which can be held at low tenn
perature for storing the butter in. A
great number of the summer creamer-
les are being run on the cream gather
ing system. This necessitateS an
abundant supply of cold water which
is oftentimes allowed to run over the
floor, or in open cutters, and has
tendency to keep the room damp and
prevent the ehurn and butter-worker
from becoming dry, and the result is
that they soon become foul smelling.
The remedy for this is to conduct the
water away in pipes, and also attach a
hose and a steampipe. After the
churn is thoroughly washed, close the
lid and insert the end of the hose in
the buttermflk outlet, and then steam
thoroughly for twenty minutes. The
intense heat will destroy all germ
life, and leave the churn dry and
clean. This is also an excellent de-
vice for steaming the butter worker
and utensils, and also the cans or
tanks used in drawing the cream.

MR.. JOSEPH HENwoRTa.

One of the sensations of the campaign
was sprung by the Miner this morning
when it printed an interview with Mr..

The fact that Mr.. Joseph Henworth is
the excellent foreman Of one of the NJ

M. Q. P. company is very anxious for
the success Of the fusion ticket, particu-
larly the judiciary nominees, is no ref1ec-

You talk of buying the Filipinos and

CAN'T MISLEAD REPUBLICANS.

Some of the fusion leaders have sought
to obtain aid for their local ticket by
promising support to Mckinley and
Roosevelt.
Not one of them will vote for McKin-
ley and Roosevelt. They have no sym
pathy with the forces of law and order
in the nation any more than they have
in the state and the county, and so they
will vote against the republican national
ticket. Let no republican be misled on
that point. Men who abandon their own
principles to enter wretched fusion for
spoils alone, as Joe Toole explained, are
not to be trusted on any proposition.
They are against Mckinley and Roose-
velt just as they are against every prin-
ciple of good government, justice, per-
sonal liberty and security of property
rights, progress, enlightenment and ex-
pansion. Trust them not.

Report of the Death of New York's
Ex-Mayor.

New York, Nov. 2.-William L. Strong,
the last mayor of the old city of New
York. died suddenly at 3 a. M, at his
residence in this city. Mr.. Strong had
not been at his place of business for sew

different firms until January l, 1870 when
he organized the firm of William L.
Strong and company. Th firm soon grew
to be one of the prominent business
houses in the city. He also Interested
himself If in banking matters and was
president of the Central National bank.
Mr.. Strong one of the leaders of the re-
form movement in this city was elected
mayor on the republican citizens union
ticket in 1894. He was the last mayor Of
the old city of New York before consoli-
dation with Brooklyn anu the other bor-
oughs composing the present city.
Mr.. Strong had been in poor health for

JUSTICE AND EIGnT HOURS.

The republican county ticket Is the
best ticket, representing the best princi-
pies and pledged in good faith to carry
them into execution.
1t is pledged to eight hours. to econ
omy and efficiency in local government,
to justice to all mining companies
through the courts and not at the polls.
1t is pledged to policy that will keep
all the mines in operation and all the
miners at work. 1t is pledged to law ana
order, to equality, to honesty in handling
public funds.
The democratic or fusion ticket simply
represents some extensive litigation and
hostility to a great mining concern,
which it proposes to close down by per
secution, outrage and robbery. 1t is
a ticket made up of men generally
unknown, and of whom not even the
Miner has yet said kind word. 1t is
a ticket that stands for greed and noc
for the public interest. The effect of its
election would be to reduce the value OF
real estate IS per cent in this city and
cut down the population to 5000 people.
for that is as many people as the two
companies which propose to close the
Amalgamated could support with their
present payrolls.
The independent democratic ticket sim-
ply represents one man and feud. II
seems to have been nominated more to
defeat the republican party than to win
itself. 1t has no chance to get better
than a 'place" at the finish, and its lead
ers will probably join with the fusion
lists in mutual condolences when the vote
shall be counted. '9.'''i'''

The attorney for that trust is the Hon.

workmen will lose their employment
until the manufacturing business of this

That will take years, during which the

why William J. Bryan and Joseph X.

Major Burke, however, besides being a
Inopoly in all it's forms, has always been
"a tpublic-spirited man. 1t is only six
years ago that he, in company with San,

! BREAD AND BUTTER ISSUE

The Butte mines which the fusion par
ties propose to keep open because they
are not connected with trust, employ
all told, an average of 1000 men.
The Butte mines which the fusion
party proposes to close, and is pledged to
close because they are said to be con-
trolled by trust, employ $500 men.
That is the business view of the situa-
tion. That is the view taxpayers, props

bankers, railroad employees, professional
men and all others who depend on the
general business of this great city should
take of the present political situation.
The basis of Butte's prosperity is its
payrolls. All the money in circulation
here starts from the Offices of the mining
companies.
