For Senatorial Honors Along
With Clark.
IS FOR CLARK FIRST.
After the Boodler Is Given a Certificate
H. L. Frank Will Push His
Own Claim.

H. l.. Frank has avOwed his candi
|atorships, which the next legislative
assembly will have to bestow upon
two of the faithful. Mr.. Frank in
formed the Record that he would be
a candidate, and authorized the an
nouncement. He also desires it un-
derstood that his candidacy is not
antagonistic to that of w. A. Clark,
and if he should be one of the elect,
the honor must come to him after
Clark has been chosen.
"You can say for me-" he said, in
reply to the Records question, that
my name will go before the legis-
lature as a candidate for United
States senator. | had practically
made up my mind to this end some
days ago, and this announcement is
made at the request Of my friends,
who were of the opinion that it was
best for me to do SO. l am in the
fight, and will use all honorable means
to bring about my election.
In reply to question as to whether
or not he would support Mr.. Clark,
Mr.. Frank said:
Indeed, Twill, l am for Mr.. Clark
first, last, and all the time. After
he is elected I will take my chances.
l confidently believe that Mr. Clark
will be elected on the first ballot,
and if | thought that my candidacy
would have any effect upon the re-
suit, as far as Mr.. Clark is con-
cerned, would not permit the use OF
my name. But it will not. Mr.
Clark's election is as certain as
though he had his certificate in his
pocket now.
Mr.. Frank spoke in complimentary
terms of other candidates, but de.
clined to enter into any discussion
as to their merits, or the claims upon
the democracy of the state.
Il can only speak for myself" he
said II have been in the harness
for the democracy Of Montana for
quarter of century," lie continued,
land basing my claims upon this fact
| think | am entitled to some con-
sideration. have done all in my
power to promote the success of the
party, and this the democrats of the
state know. A number of the mem
bers of the legislature have been kind
enough to assure me of their support.
and l feel hopeful as to the outcome.
The announcement of the Frank
candidacy would indicate, to those
who are thoroughly familiar with the
Situation, and the relation of those
most interested, that there will be no
Clark candidate from the east side.
and that the candidacy of Frank
who is Clark's intimate friend, has
official sanction. 1t is also in the
nature of notice to Mr.. Heinze, the
leader of the fusionists out side of
the democratic element of the COM
bination, from Clark, to be good, and
check his vaulting ambition.
w. A. Clark, accompanied by Adam
Underwood, his private secretary,
leaves for the east tomorrow. He

on some business pertaining to
his railroad project in the southwest,
and after a short stop in New York,

Angeles, the proposed western term
inal Of his railroad, and expects to re.
turn to Montana about the time the
legislative assembly convenes.-Hel-

the bride of witness horse and tried
to reach him. He slid off his horse
and McCabe catching him around the
neck, hit him on the side of the jaw,
raising large lump. While McCabe
was holding him in this manner, wit
ness drew his pocket knife and cut
McCabe as often as he could until he
was released. Then he jumped on his
horse fearing that McCabe would do
as he promised he would do, get a
gun and catch him before he reached
home.
Roy Truman, the boy who accom-.
panied Inglis, said that there were
no words spoken either by himself Or
Inglis during the fight. He was sill
ent witness of it@all but did not see
a knife used.
E. B. Truman was introduced by
the defense to prove that about two
months previous to this McCabe had
attempted to assault Inglis, taking ur
an axe as a weapon. Witness told Nc
Cabe to leave the boy alone and take
a man his size. McCabe had then
promised that he would catch tn.
defendant alone sometime and fix
him.
Frank Davis for the prosecution
said about year ago, just after tbs
land contest between Inglis and Nc
Cabe, in which the latter was sue
cessful, Inglis had declared he woul6
kill McCabe if he ever got a chance
that he would cut his heart out"
e. L. Dyer, D. Hoover and H. S
Cannon were introduced to prove the
previous good character of the de
fendant after which McCabe was re
called to testify that at the time he
had threatened Inglis with the axe, e
B. Truman and Inglis had both at
tackled him. Truman had club a:
a weapon and to keep him off he hat
taken UP an axe. He had told In
glis, the next time he met either one
of them alone he would fight them
County Attorney Gray made ths
opening argument for the prosecu
tion in a short address. He was fol
lowed by Mr.. Noffsinger for the de
fendant. He urged that Inglis beins
the smaller man had perfect righ
to defend himself with a knife O.
anything he could find.
Grant Swaney closed for the prose
cution after which Judge Smith de
livered his charge to the jury.
The jury handed in a verdict thi

PENDANTS not guilty. This decision
was reached about l o'clock thi

The Tax Commissioners In their report on the
table Of equalization say: THE increase of 1854
95S2s Of the aggregate assessed value of property
IN this State the previous year is very largely
attributable to the notable advances in valuations
made last year in New-York and Richmond coun-
ties and TO growth in all the counties comprising
the city Of New-York. This increase of values
found by the local Assessors in metropolitan coun
ties decreases the proportion of direct taxation for
State purposes TO be borne by the other counties
The figures given show II this State very nearly
seven and one-half times as much of direct taxa
property while Intelligent belief holds that in vol
une and IN value personal property equals II
not exceeds realty value.
THE special franchise valuations upon property
IN public streets and places appear fer the first
time upon the local assessment rolls Of 1900 for
sl the purposes of local taxation. They will not
enter the table Of State equalization until one year
hence; but being upon local rolls. they will
share in the actual payment Of the taxation based
upon the equalization table now before
Assuming the court stamp of approval upon the
integrity of this law and that local assessors
maintain the assessments of corporate property
outside the streets, the gain TO the assessment
rolls viii approximate, in round numbers. S170o00.
GOO over the local assessments OF the same prop
erty in 1899.
AT an average tax rate of "a per cent this gains
S3S50.000 in taxes to be paid almost entirely
into local treasures. It is not practicable to give
the precise gain in figures. because heretofore II
has been the local custom in many instances to
make the assessment masse, without distin-
outside streets. Our annual report four months
hence will permit further and fuller treatment of
this important subject than is here and now peril
nent."

DEMOCRATIC LAWYER AGAINST BRYAN

Charles L. sicardi, lawyer at No $50 Nassau
St. said yesterday:
Although have been Democrat since cast
my nrst vote, am now constrained to believe that
L ceased to be one in 1885, when. In company with
Fl goodly number Of voters who have been desig-
mated as Gold Democrats I cast my vote for Mr.
Mckinley and sound money With many others
discern that the Democratic party has changed its
the creed taught by its founders. The heresy Of
the silver doctrine Is evidently still dear to the
heart of the Democratic candidate, and although
he may discreetly maintain silence when asked
pointed questions to his of action regard
ing the payment OF public moneys, his very silence
creates distrust and the suspicion has grown into
conviction that If he had the opportunity the
alleged corpse OF silver would come to life quickly
Personally, as trustee of several financial insti-
tutions whose deposits largely made up of the
earnings OF people of small means. I consider that
l would be untrue to my trust If did not oppose
by my word and vote any policy whose success
would eventually permit the repayment of the de-
posts OF any institution in our land In deprecated
currency.
