MIR. Kelley averred that ii was with re
luctanee that he touched upon state j.
sues for the reason that His indignation
usually gets the better of his discretion
when considering that subject. But in
order to Justify his position and that @f
the independent democrats he would
give their reasons for not supporting the
, ticket in the state, labelled democracy
He WAS applaudea when ne said lhat
said ticket does not represent the demo
cratic constituency in Montana. He
continued: The independent dcmoe

Il is the only legitimate democracy in the
state ot Montana tonight. the only party
that lays aside personal feelings TO fur

q. s.. Hogan devoted his entire time to
a defense of his position before the peo-
pie Of the state, saying that he had 80

and at the demand of five thousand

concerning him made by the oppo

Hughes, who spoke here Monday night
for the Clark democrats, had been hired
BY the Butte financial department to sc
about the state and ruin his tIIogans

then II. L. Hughes was introduced. He
devoted the balance Of the time of the
meeting. something over an hour, to IL
scathing denunciation OF all things re-
publican. Hanna included. His speech
Was mostly directed to laboring men.
However, he declared that he was not a
tabor agitator. because he had never in
his life worked for wages and hoped he
never would have to. He also said he
had no record to defend and hoped he
never would have. He wa 4 printer by
trade and farmer by choice. He said
YOU could not find word in the republi
can platform OF in MclIinley,s speech of
acceptance in favor of the solution OF the
problems OF the lahoring men. tut. in-
stead of this the republicans talk of IA
larger army. They want every laboring
man. Mr.. Hughes said. to carry Il soldier
ON his back. He also described Hanna
sls the greatest Labor ca'as''er IN the
country.
Mr.. Hughes also proceeded TO show
that hc had no llsc for tine Analgamated
Copper company IN the least. He dis
euSsed that company more than amy
thing else, accusing thcnA 81 trying TO
gain possession OF all the governmental
machinery, ~ Wclas the Judiciary 81 the
state of Montana. lie also declared that
the republican party has sole out to the
n. k. Il. and the Standard Oil company
When the speaker had concluded
about half "a his harrangne hc stated
that lie would have something moro To
say in regard to the people who were
leaders Ut the independent democratic
movement. by this time d number OF
the people composing the audience, sur
fcitcd With the roast ~ corporations and
the Standard Oil company ia particular,
had left the hail. A large number Of
others, thoroughly disgusted With the
discourse and not desiring to hear any
more Of the gentleman \ remarks, began
to file out in squads until, at the close of
the meeting fully half Of the audience
had left. The remainder Was composed
mostly of ladies' Mr.. Hughes paid his
respects 70 ~. s.. Hogan, candidate for
governor on the independent democratic
ticket, charactcrizing him as, a dishonest

that Mr.. Hogan was attempting to dc
1 liver the labor vote of this state over to
the Standard Oil company and declared
that he was unworthy of the confidence
and the sulfragcs of the toiling masses.
The applause which greeted the re-
marks of the two speakers could hardly
lie said to have been very hearty at amy
time and, as whole, the meeting was
the most frosty Of any that haVe been
held ia Red Lodge duri..o TIC present

COAL STRIKE ENDED.
The Miners Win Out in the Great Antracite
Strike

Strike
PHILADELPHIA, Oct. IT, The great
strike of the anthracite mine workers of
Pennsylvania, which began Sept. II,
practically ended today when the phi;t-
dclphia and Reading Coal and Iron com
! danv and the Lehigh Valley Coal com
company agreed TO abolish the sliding
scale III their respective regions and to
grant an advance III wages of 10 per cent
net. the advance to remain in operation
until April /, 1901. or thereafter This
action meets the demands Of the Scran7
ton miners convention.
SCRANTON. PA., Oct. l3 The Joint con
venton of the anthracite miners which
began yesterday again went into execu-
!, tive session shortly after 10 o'clock this
morning. It is believed the convention
will get Trough with its work tonight
When the convention met this morning
no definite plan had been decided upon
a. far ;ls could be learned in regard 10
the operators offer of wage advance
| The two plans suggested yesterday, one
that the whole matter be left to com
mittee and the other that the national
officers he instructed to find a solution of
the complicated problem, Still find favor
among some delegates
! 4 >aJ,, fA
ing called to order plunged into the dis
cussion of the l0pcrcent net increase and
the wage scale in all its various phases
was thoroughly gone into by the dele
gates. Finally a motion was adopted
that committee on resolutions be APP
pointed for the purpose Of presenting to
the convention something tangible on
the wage scale and also on the other
grievances. The delegates were invited
to give the committee suggestions.
The committee was made up Of thir-
! teen members as follows:
| President Mitchell, the three district
presidents, Nichols, Duffy and Fahey,
and three delegates from each Of three
districts.
The convention shortly before noon
took recess until 1:;D p. m, in order to
allow the resolutions committee to pre-
pare set of resolutions to be prepared
for the afternoon session. w. T. Ryan,
secretary treasurer of the United Mine
Workers Of Illinois, addressed the con
vention during the morning session and
informed the delegates that the btu
minous coal miners are willing to render
them financial aid if necessary.
From what can be learned from the
delegates it is believed that most of them
favor the acceptance Of the offer of the
operators of 10 percent advance, proyid-
ing they will make concessions in the
grievance. It is not believed an agree
ment will be reached before night.

In unnistakable terms, although by
greatly reduced majority, for the Rspub-
lican candidates. As the night pro-
gressed It only served to confirm this
Judgement. The returns from Illinois
betrayed like condition. The Republi-
can plurality OF 1866 was greatly reduced,
but IL was still far too large to be over
ONE. On the other hand, the returns
from Indiana, Michigan, and the two
Dakotas, Utah and Wyoming, as well as
Nsbraska, seemed to indicate strong Re
