Henze has given up all hopes of elect

If Toole were sent to the senate, Lieu-
tenant Governor Higgins would take
the gubernatorial dais and administer
to the wants of the fusonocra ". The
political gossips have it that Nj. H;g-
gins is "friendlier" to Mr.. Heinze than
is Governor Toole and might assist him
in a number of ways. For instance. in
regard to the two added supreme court
justices that will ornament the bench
of Montana provided that bill now be-
fore the Legislature is formulated into a
law.

legislators are dead on to Mr.. Heinze,

Mr.. Conrad's boom has excited good
deal of comment, but it is believed here
THAI his supporters will not cling to him
when the time for the crucial test ar
rives. Mr. Conrad is known as a shrewd
business man, who in affairs of the
heart is guided by his head. He might
get complimentary votes, but that is
his limit.
Hon. II. l.. Frank seems to retain his
supporters right along. None of them
has yet cast a ballot for any of the
nther candidates, showing that they
mean to fight il out on Frank lines if 1T
takes the whole session. The general
opinion seems to be that in the end Mr.
Frank will attain his ambition.
Assemblyman Emerson Hill appears
to be the incarnation of discord He
has not only created feeling that the
time is ripe for him to consult ply
sician about his disposition but the APP
preparations committee. barring two
members, are al war with him. Sock
less Jerry Simpson, in all the habili-
mentS of his glory, never turned things
topsy turvy any worse or any quicker
than has this untamed son of the Rock
les.
While it is a we'll known paria-
mentary law that if committee adjourns
to given time, the chairman cannot
call meeting in THE interim without
notifying all the members, Mr.. Hill
took it upon himself to call meeting
on Friday last when four members OF
the committee We're out or town anG>
forced Mrs. Fea1herly to resign as clerk
of that body. Then he appointed some
one else to the position, though he we'll
knew that such course was against the
desire of majority of the committees.
AS a result the matter was called to the
attention of the house and Mr.. Hill was
given lesson in courtesy which he will
not soon forget 1t might be relevant
to add that Mr.. Hill is fusonist.
Assemblymen Fine and Kilgallon have
gone out of the florist business and no
more are the members of the house
amused by watching the Gala lilies ana
sunflowers of repartee sail back and
forth between them. Why they have
granted surcease Of these things is not
easily explained. and it is supposed that
they got that tired feeling"
Reading Clerk Gilligan is proving a
shining success in his particular capacity
and the house would now mourn his loss
very sincerely if President Mckinley
should send for him to come to Wash
ington on the next train. His sonorous
and melodious voice can be heard in
every corner of the room and spider webs
vanish as if by magic when his tones
begin to reverberate around the build
ing.

Judson A. Ferguson, the labor candi-

cussion, has received his reward for
withdrawing from the contest In 10 days
prior to the election He is now appoint

doubtless be satisfied that the oppro-

among the labor men was not too great
