an exceptionally clean campaign was
smeared and daubed yesterday by the
'ribbers," who attacked Ben f. Mclean
in the most disgracefuI manner. was
q pity that they did. for the campaign
had been very clean up to that time. Des-
peration is a terrible thing when weak

reason why a campaign in city like
Wichita, where everybody knows one an
other cannot be conducted decentIy, even
in the desperation Of a situation.
But the ''ribbers viii De punished to-
day for throwing mud at a man so ex-
cepuonally clean and decent in private
and pubic life as Ben Mclean is.
BY the time the Eagle appears in its
next issue. the election win be over and
Ben Mclean viii be chosen as the next
mayor Of Wichita he win be selected
because the people of Wichita have con
hdence in Inn and in the people behind
him.

His supporters, every one Of them. should
be at the polls, and above all, they should
be there early. The heavy vote viii con
gest the polling places in the afternoon,
and it is essential 10 have the Mclean
vote in early.
The mind Of nearly everybody made

The Importance Of an early vote is

WHEELER HAS A FAClLE PEN
He's the Man Who Writes the PUTS
for the Northern Pacific
Road

NJ. N. Wheeler. advertising manager
of the Northern Pacific, the man who
writes all the fowery and glowing ctr
culars and other literature for that great
road, is in the city today, working west-t
ward on tour of inspection. He is gath
ering material for next years wonder
land and the book promises to be even
better than any Of it's predecessors. The
labor incident to getting up a new hook
for each year. one that will not dupli-
cate the features Of the other seasons,
is immense. and it takes all of a good
mans time to keep it going. Mr.. Wheeler
has been with the company for num-
Der of years, and is one of the best known
country.
A collection of all the literature sent
out by the Northern Pacific would be a
good start for very interesting story.
The printing has increased in excellence
year by year. but some of the old issues
are even more striking, as first opening
up to the world the possibilities Of the
great empire upon which the road runs.
The earlier crop reports are among the
most noticeable. Nowadays, people have
become more or less accustomed to hear
ing of wheat IS to 100 bushels an acre,
potatoes 1000 bushel to the acre, and
oats 125 bushels: but when these reports
of Montana yields were first sent out,
they seemed more like the wild dreams
of Baron Munchausen. Now, what goes
into such books and booklets, passes for
the gospel truth, which it really Is.

the allegation that in case pending in
the district court of Silver Bow county
in which Miles Finlen is plaintiff and F.

PENDANTS is as follows:
"You have exceeded your jur-
isdiction in committing E. w. Harvey
to the custody of the sheriff to be by
him imprisoned and detained; and xap-
pearing to our district court that in or
der to properly adjudge and determine
the validity of the said Imprisonment
it is necessary that the record Of the
proceedings before you be certified in
order that the same may be inquired
into and reviewed
I'VE therefore command you that you
certify to No. 8, July so. full true and
correct transcript of the record and pro-
ceedings had before you in the matter
of the taking or attempted taking of

The range cattle are expected to move
very shortly, beginning about the first of
August. This will be some weeks earlier
than usual. and the cattle are In much

because of the splendid feed on the
ranges. There will not be much unsafe

will be cleaned up as bare as at any
time for number of years. Prices are
good, and the stock will move freely,

Horses are going in good numbers,
and find a good sale in the central east
and central states. where horse breed
ing has been discouraged for some years
past If the horses were not branded
so as to be disfigured. as they general
~ are, they would bring better prices.
The range horses make ideal animals for
livery and driving purposes, and we'll
matched teams bring good prices Where
some care is taken in their breeding, and
in matching them for sale, they are more
profitabl than almost any other stock on
the range, as they are so hardy, and the
winter loss is almost nothing. The horse
industry of Montana is worth more at
tention than has been given it far few
years back"

tempt yesterday morning to commit sui
eide by cutting his throat with a pocket
knife is still at Murray & Freunds' hos

DR.. Murray stated today that the
young man is getting along nicely and
will doubtless be out within ten days.
The physician stated that Armstead is
still very reticent and unwilling to talk
of the affair to anyone.
George w. Fletcher, the intimate
friend of young Armstead, still refused
to say anything of Importance con-
corning the motive of his companion for
the rash act. Mr.. Fletcher is still in
Butte and will doubtless stay until his
friend is able to leave. He does not
know whether the trip on to the Idaho
and Dakota mines which the young min
ing engineer intended to inspect will be
taken or not. Mr.. Fletcher received
telegram from his father in Philadelphia
late last evening asking whether or not
he should send his private secretary on
to Butte Mr.. Fletcher answered that
his presence here is unnecessary.

PRISONERS TRY TO ESCAPE
Vlgilant Officers Must Keep Close
Watch on Police Court Prisoners
Who TRY TO Flee.


The repairing and general overhaulin:-
of the city hall is causing the officials
at that building no end of Inconvenience
and trouble at present.
Everything possible to- rush the work
to completion is being done, and in
the meantime the acting mayor, Tom
Bryant, and Chief of Police Reynolds
have abandoned their offices and can be
found on the steps in front of the hall
or sitting on barrel in the alley imme-
diately beside the Jail.
1t is necessary for half of Butte's
police force to be in attendance at each
mornings session of the police court,
owing to the fact that the court is now
held in the council chamber, on the third
floor of the building. which can only be
reached by means Of the front stairs
The prisoners are now marched out into
the alley and around the building to the
entrance. The motley aggregation is So
large of late that two men cannot keep
an eye on all of them. A white tramp
and a colored bad man attempted to
make a quick getaway this morning
while being taken back to the Jail, but
were unsuccessful in their undertaking.
Court Policeman Young nabbed the
would-be deserters and landed them in
line again. :.

in which the plaintiffs and defendants
have been dead so long that time has
obliterated all traces of their last rest

SHEEP WILL START FOR EAST
Idaho Flocks Will Begin to Move Soon
State Has No Central Wool
Market

w. c. Mcbride of the Rio Grande
Western leaves this afternoon for Rex
burg and st. Anthony. Idaho, where the
Shipment of fat sheep for the eastern
market is beginning. Some 800 cars of
the stock are all ready for shipment,
ana many more will be ready in the near
future. The sheep will go direct to the
block. for the most part. instead of be-
ing reshipped in the eastern states and
corn fed for one or two months. The
growers will thus get the top price of
the market. without having to divide
with the FEEDER. 1t will be good year
for the westerners.
Inc wool is pretty well cleaned out OF
ioano. though the manner of selling
makes it impossible to tell with SO great
certainty. There the wool men have no
grain markets. as there are in Billings
and Great Falls in this state. but the
product is sold and shipped from every.
little station along the roads. A move
ment Is on foot to concentrate the mar
ket somewhere, lessening the cost of the
handnng, and giving the growers the
gain. q

The Grand Carnival Ball.

The preparations for the Rex ball are
progressing rapidly, and the indications
are that it will be a great success. 1t
will surpass anything which has been
held in Butte for long time. Almost
all the society people in the city are
looking forward to it, and the list Of
dances, the music for which will be fur
nished by the Boston & Montana band,
assure the guests a fine time.
The programme is most unique in de-
sign-ground color, purple. with de-
signs in color peeping through from the
inside. The lettering on the outside is
rich gilt, and on the inside red and
blue.
