Special to the Inter Mountain.
Helena, Feb. 8.-State Superintendent
Carleton comes out over his his sigma
ture in an open letter in the Herald to-
night announcing that he proposes to
leave the populist party and become a
good republican. 1t was reported for
several months that he had this course
in contemplation and he makes himself
out pretty good republican.
The supreme court today affirmed the
action Of the district court of Silver Bow
in denying the Boston & Montana an
injunction to restrain the Montaa Ore
Purchasing company, F. A. Heinze and
others from passing through fractional
portion of the Johnstown mine in Butte
by means of underground working, pend
ing a trial Of the case in court. The
court passes upon the case as follows:
1--WE have examined the record in this
case and carefully considered all the
points made by counsel. It involves the
right of the plaintiff to an injunction,

straining the defendants from passing
to and from through a fractional por-
tion of the Johnstown mining claim be-

the application for an injunction PEN

pealed. 1t does not appear that the griev-
ance complained of will work irreparable
injury to plaintiff pending the determi-
nation of the suit. There was, therefore.
no clear abuse Of discretion. The order
Is affirmed"
The supreme court asked that in an

Clue to GOebel'S Assassin.

Peoria. ILL.,, Feb. 8.-The police of
Peoria have unearthed what they think
is a clew to the assassin Of Gov. Goebel Of
Kentucky. A young man arrived in the
city last fall, whose name was George F.
Ahlers, claiming that his father was a
member of the firm of Hoffman & All
lers of Cincinnati. He claimed Kentucky
as his home, and when under the in1lu-
ence of drink was easily excited and
would work himself into violent pas
sion while discussing politics. He said
repeatedly that it was his evidence that
acquitted Mr.. Goebel of the charge o.
murder. He was very bitter in his de-
nunciations of Goebel and offered to bet
large sums of money that Goebel would
be assassinated before he reached the gu
bernatorial chair. He said a near rela-
tive Of Goebel's victim was pledged to
kill the governor, but in case he failed to
keep his word others would not fail He
had left Peoria some time before the
Kentucky tragedy and his present where

Bryan Makes a Speech.

New York, Feb. 8.-During the banquet
of the society Of the Genesee at Sherry's
last night, Mr.. Bryan and his party en-
tered the ham while Oscar F. Williams,
ex-consul at Manila, was speaking on
affairs in the Philippines. Mr.. Williams
defended the Philippine policy of Gener-
al Otis and President Mckinley and clos
ed with an appeal to continue President
MCKINLEY at the helm of state, assuring
his hearers that such helmsman would
bring the ship to port safe and secure.
There were loud cries for a speech
from Mr.. Bryan and he finally rose and
thanked those assembled for the hearty
reception. He said:
with some of the things the speaker
has just said, earthly agree. When he
spoke of governing with the consent of
the people, by the people and of the peo-
pie I agree with him with all my heart.
But if that means that the people of the
Philippines are to be taxed without rep
resentation, then I don't agree with him.
I have my own ideas of the destinies OF
this country, of what government of the
people, for the people and by the people
means. Republicanism rests upon the
consent of the people. I don't believe
God ever created one nation to cross the
seas to seize and govern another.
agree with the speaker that we ought
to plant the seeds of our form of gov
erMnent in all parts Of the world. But
cannot see why we ought to do it with
cannon, nor why we should try to give
the people of the Philippines our form
Of government and if they refuse shoot
them down. The reason this country
cannot speak out as it should in the
British-Boer war is because of our
trea tment of the Philippines. We can
not condemn England for doing what we
are doing ourselves. And the more is the
pity, for believe the great majority ol
our people are opposed to the invasion OF
the rights Of the South African republics
by the monarchy of Great Britain. And
that they will be SO inconsistent as tc
take this stand of the matter of the
Boer war and to adopt the English pol
icy of aggression in the Philippines,

The granting of sucn extensive author
ity to the new commission and it's assign
ment to duty under the war department
marks important departures in the pol
icy of the administration. Members Of
the Schurmann commission have COM
planned that they were handicapped in
their work by the necessity Of subordin-
ating their action to the military. The
decision to place the Taft commission un-
der the war department means that the
archipelago is now considered domestic
territory. After the suppression of or

four grand military departments. Judge
Taft, as chairman of the commission, will

BY Associated Press.

Washington, Feb. 8.-Bickford, the
Butte lawyer, was again on the witness
stand in the Clark hearing today. Cross
examination brought out the fact that
Bickford had made visit to Stevens
willie to see Representative Wood before
the meeting Of the legislature. Also that
while Bickford was in the habit of stop
ping at the Helena hotel he stayed at the
Grand Central during the session Of the
legislature and that Wood, Black and
Carr also spent the winter at the Grand
Central. Bickford said he paid the ex-
penses Of some witnesses in the Welcome
disbarment proceedings. His best recol-
lection was that he had secured the money
from Roote, partner of Welcome and
an attorney for Clark. Roote had also
supplied the money for the payment of
lawyers fees IN the proceedings against
Whiteside at Kalispe1l.
Frank E. Corbett, of Butte, the princi-
pal western counsel for Clark, testified to
a conversation with Marcus DAILY in the
Netherlands hotel. New York. Dec. 25 or
26, 1885, just prior to the meeting of the
Montana legislature. He prefaced the re-
port of the conversation by saying he and
Daily were good friends notwithstanding
his relationship to Clark and that they
had been acquainted for thirteen years. He
said upon meeting DAILY at the hotel he
had asked DAILY if he intended going to
Montana to participate in the senatorial
contest. DAILY replied, Corbett said, he
was not going. He added he had gone
out of politics, and that he didn't care to
have anything more to do with political
affairs there, but his friends there swere
still interested and were keeping up the
controversy. Daily then said according to
/ the statement of witness:
| al want to say, too, now that II Clark
shows his head in the senatorial race. il
he is even nominated for the senate you
fellows will hear something drop that will
drive Clark and his friends out of politics
and send some OF them to the peniten-
tiary.'

Special to the Inter Mountain.
Washington, Feb. S.-Frank e. Corbett
testified concerning his conversation with
Marcus Daily in New York in which the
latter threatened Clark and his friends.
Corbett also explained his trip to Hell
ena on special train as a matter of pro-
fessional business, having nothing to do
with politics.
Samuel T. Hauser followed. He told
of a conversation with Clark in which
he advised the latter to enter the sena-
torial fight as the only means of saving
the state from the tyranny of Marcus
Daily. He suggested to Clark to spenS
his money in Montana instead of wasting
it on high priced pictures. (Great laugh
ter! Hauser told of the organization
and said that Daily. Clark, Broadwater
and man named Hauser contributed
forty thousand dollars each for political
purposes. His testimony was most in
teresting but it is doubtful whether the
committee will care to go into details of
history and expose the democratic
partys corruption in Montana.
Bickford's testimony was concluded
this morning. The cross-examination
was conducted mainly by members Of the
committee. Both sides expressed salts
faction with the testimony. Bickford
denied any authorized agency for Clark,
beyond professional. and he expended
only few hundred dollars for Clark in
q political way. He denied the testi-
mony Of Ector and others implica ting
him in corrupt transactions, thus rails
ing the issue of veracity between witness
and others.
The arrival of Senator Mats of Ana
conda last night greatly surprised the
leaders of both sides. He could a
tale unfold that would lower the price
of copper. 1t is reported that he was
summoned by the investigating commit
tee without consulting with the DAILY
committee or the Clark managers.
