pers comment with unbounded enthusiasm upon
the abrupt snub administered by Emperor Will
liam to Mr.. Kruger. which is all the more no
ticeable when contrasted with the Boer states
mans concededly successful visit to France
The snub is regarded further evidence of the
better relations existing between Great Britain
and Germany
Emperor Williams telegram to the German
Minister at Luxembourg was the outcome of
dispatch which Mr. Kruger sent to the Kaiser
on arriving at the German frontier:
On reaching German soil I hasten to express
to Your Majesty my sentiments of respectful de-
votion and cordial sympathy.
The official explanation offered through the
German press is that steps had not been taken
to ascertain whether Mr.. KrGger's visit would
be agreeable. The Boer delegates admit that
they have received a serious check, and Mt
Kruger is said 10 be extremely disheartened
There is a rumor that he has been requested 10
avoid Belgian territory.

If the voters in the other counties OF
the Copper State prove as enthusiastic in
the cause Of the. party of reform and
prosperity as are those of Silver Bow,
there is not the shadow of a doubt that
the November election will see the escut-
cheon Of Montana, so sadly furnished un-
der democratic misrule. restored to its
the state INDICATED in the eyes of the
whole country.
Following the successful local rally at
republican headquarters on Wednesday
evening, a meeting was held at Blume's
haM in South Butte last night which for
oratorical endeavor on the part of the
speakers and enthusiasm on the part of
their audience has never been surpassed
in the history of Silver Bow county.
Imperialism, the trusts, the financial
question. so-called Mckinleyism and the
errors of the state democracy were all
discussed in an earnest and convincing
name Keen, incisive logic a~lternated
with shafts OF wit and satire: the picture
of disgrace and scandal incident to DEM
cratic bribery inc corruption was
thrown on the canvas in vivid colors.
and a clarion note of warning sounded that
had its effect even upon the adherents
of other parties who ''graced the occas-
ion with their presence.
Alex LaiSt presided over the meeting
and the speakers We're JONI Kirk,
Charles Kohl. Prof. A. C. Newill, candi-
date for superintendent of schools, and
NJ. A. Berger, candidate for the legis-
lature. The latter two gentlemen were
not scheduled for speeches, but the au-
dience wished to hear them and they had
to respond.
So many persons We're present at the
rally that the hall was packed almost to
sutfocation and many We're unable to
secure an entrance. The humble of
chairs present was found insufficient to
accommodate two-thirds of the audience
and the county central committee has de-
cided to place more chairs in the hall
in anticipation of future rallies.
"A marked feature of the meeting was
the audible evidence Of appreciation
shown by the audience whenever a tell
ing point was scored by one of the speak,
ers. In fact, the enthusiasm was so great
that its effect was to spur the orators
on to further efforts.
$50 long as the American people IKE
the interest in politics they are taking at
the present time" said Mr.. Kirk, the first
speaker, in introducing his remarks,
Just so long need the calamity howlers
have no fear regarding the perpetuity of
institutions and the policy of
any administration. If the administra-
ton is unsatisfactory, the people will go
the polls and cast their ballots for a
change.

Speaking with regard to trusts, Mr..
Kohl escante at length on the indus
trial situation. He stated that If trusts
had m~onopolized everything 1t was queer
that so little Is heard concerning the poor
condition of the laboring class, which
must certainly obtain II things were as
bad as reported.
That there are trusts he did not at
tempt to deny, and asserted his belief
ina there always would be conditions IN
a civilized country when we will pool is
sues In an endeavor to save expense,
However, the republican party is in no
manner to blame for their existence and
can be depended on to do as much for
their regulation as any other party, and
perhaps more.
IF your memory serves you," he said
with a smile. there We're trusts during
the democratic administration. During

the Bourbon politicians that they had
been downed, but it wasn't long until the

themselves were underneath"

ered a brief, but forceful address upon
the political situation in this state.
"Ihere Is no question but that nation
al odium and disgrace has been brought
upon US by the actions of the democratic
party in this great state" he asserted.
and it is the duty of every true patriot
be he democrat, republican or populist
to go to the polls and help wipe the stain
from our shield.
There has been bribery; there has
been c%orruption; there has 'boodling;'
what hasn't there been? Nobody ever
heard OF such a state of affairs under a
republican administration.

MI. M. A. Berger being unexpectedly
called upo to address the assemblage,
discussed national issues briefly. He also
said his education had been along the
lines of practical business. rather than
as a public speaker. He promised, in the
