Clinton Dotson's Crime the
Most Dastardly Ever
Known in Montana.
Special to The Journal.

Special to The Journal.
Helena. Mont, July 2O.-The trial of
Clinton Dotson at Deer Lodge on the
charge of conspiring to have his father,
Captain Oliver Dotson, killed, was con-
cluded late this afternoon, and the case
was given to the jury. A verdict of mur-
der in the first degree is expected.
James Macarthur, who did the killing
at young Dotsons instigation. for the
promise of reward, was convicted last
week and has been sentenced to hang on
S.pt. 6. Dotson is now serving a ninety
nine-year sentence for killing Eugene
Cullinane in the autumn of 1898. It has
been the theory of the prosecution in the
present trial that Clinton Dotson hired
James Macarthur, convict who was about
to leave the penitentiary, to kill Dotson's
father, leaving upon the body the alleged
confession of Elder Dotson that he and
not his son killed Cullinane. the idea
being to facilitate the pardon of Young
Dotson. The plot was exposed and Nc
Arthur convicted, and now it seems GER
tain that Clinton Dotson will also be
convicted. The case is without q parallel
in the criminal history of the state.

In comparison with the figure obtained
on the basis of last years directory
names, this is a gain of 5,231. While
these figures are well over the census
returns the directory people insist they
are close to facts.
The last sheets of this years book will
be delivered to the bookbinder Monday
morning, and the books will be ready for
delivery Wednesday or Thursday.
In the form of an introduction appears
this statement:
In the transaction of the business of a
large city it is generally admitted that there
is nothing more indispensable than a good
city directory. 1t provides the information as
to where man and his wares, either ma
terial or mental, may be found when wanted
which is the first requisite for the doing Of
business
The average citizen is accustomed to find
ing addresses of persons wanted by referring
to the directory, and does not think of the
| hindrance it would be, and the trouble It
would cause if there were no directory to
give him the information. In fact, it would
be impossible in many cases to find the
person wanted and the wheels of business
would be stopped between them
To prevent this stoppage, and to furnish

the means of communication between all
persons in our city is the main object and
purpose of this book. 1t is made as nearly
perfect as long experience and close attention
to all the details can make it and we be-
lieve it will serve well it's purpose

beauty and finish with any similar publca
ton elsewhere, and this years edition equals

better is expected tomorrow.

the democratic presidential nomination
in 1904. will be received with interest in
all parts of the country, independently of
whether Mr.. Lamont is likely to develop
into real candidate. There is so much
OF uncertainty entering into the situation
at present that the mention" of anv
prominent man is likely to attract atten-
tion, for nobody can tell where the light
ming will strike. Lamont is an interest
ing person, and his rise in the world OF
politics first, and then in the world of
finance, furnishes a chapter that every
young man can well afford to read. for it
shows that the right kind of ability will
always be recognized and rewarded, no
matter If It's Dossessor is at first un-
known and without influential backing.
1t was Grover Cleveland who discovered
Lamont, and the discovery was for
tunate for them both. Prior to 1882. in
which year Cleveland was nominated for
governor of New oYrk, Lamont was abb
solutely unknown. AS a boy he had been
clerk in small toy shop in Albany.
Then he secured position on the local
staff of the Albany Argus, where his work
attracted the attention Of his EMPLOYERS
and led to several promotions. He gradu-
ated from the. Argus and entered the
capitol at Albany as clerk in one of the
departments, at a salary of SIS per month.
Then 1t was that Cleveland was nomi-
mated for governor. Getting on the
train one day, shortly after the conven-
ton, Lamont went to Buffalo to see
Cleveland.
I want to be your private secretary, in
the event of your election" he said. ssT
know state politics thoroughly. and can
be of more help to you than anybody who
mas been private secretary for you in
Buffalo. And then Lamont produced a
letter OF introduction from Samuel ].
Tilden, under whose notice he had come
while IN the statehouse. Tilden thought
MIN young man of good promise and in
MS letter warmly commended him.
Cleveland liked the manner Of the
young man and at the end of long talk,
half promised to give him the place
during the campaign Lamont rendered
important service to the state committee,
In volunteer capacity, and secured the
good will OF the party managers. Cieve-
land sent him word that he was employed
as soon as the result of the election was
made known.
AS private secretary, Lamont quickly
developed great tact and executive tall
ent. He made many friends and no
enemies He seemd to know intuitively
just what to do and when to do it. Cleve-
land trusted him implicitly, and frequent
ly went to him for advice. He early
began to act as a brake on the wheel OF
Cleveland's high temper. Sensational in
