ALL ARE ANXIOUS
ALL FOUNDRY MEN LOOKING FOR
THE WORST.
WHO WILL BE POSTMASTER ?
Most Absorbing Political Topic of the
City-Several Good Men in
the Race.

The employees at the foundry who re-
manned at their respective places after
the walkout OF the machinsts last week
are on the anxious seat and many OF
them are wondering where they are go
ing to end up.
The maChinists show no inclination to
lay down ask to be reinstated in
their old places, neither has any compro-
mise proposition come up to be sub
mitted 70 the head of the foundry de-
partment. The men are making stub
born fight. although they have made no
progress towards Il settlement of the
difficulty. The strikers seem to be-
..eve that they have Il mortal cinch"
and that the foundry can never start up
again unless some recognition is given
to the union.
But the longer the maehinsts prolong
tleir controversy the more nervous those
st;ll at work, in the various depart
ments. seem to get. The accumulation
OF work is gradually being cleared up,
olGers received sometime ago are pretty
well filed ard no new ones are being
accepted, so the chances of cutting the
forces in all branches of the foundry are
growing more apparenG each day, and
1t is possible there will be a complete
shut down.
1t is to be hoped for the good of the
town that the unpleasant difficulty be-
the machinists will soon be brought to
an end but the chances are that it will
not be, as both sides are determined,
neither are disposed to give in at the
present time.

the city hall this morning and begal
the registration of voters who will ex-

There are good many voters in Ana

that it will not be necessary for them
to reregister for the city election.
This opinion is erroneous. and City
Attorney J. r. Boarman sale shis morn

every voter sees to it that his name is
on the registration books again. The
registration lists of last fail do not hold
good now, and all who neglect to see

tered last fall or not. will be denied
the right to cast their ballots.

NOW FOR THE POSTMASTER.

Now that the short term senator has
been elected at Helena, the legislature
has adjourned and the lawmakers from
Deer Lodge county are making their
way home, the most absorbing matter
before the people of Anaconda is the
question 'Who is going to be appoint
ed postmaster"
The four-year term of Postmaster
DeVine terminated on the End inst, but
his successor has not been appointed
and, of course. until he is, and quail
fed, Mr.. Devine will hold over. although
he has expressed himself as being heart
lily sick and tired of the job.
The position has been extremely con-
filming to Mr.. Devine during his incum-
bency in the postoffice and he is very
anxious to get out of it and take
vacation.
The suspense has been awful to some
of the candidates and they long for some

GIBSON A SURPRISE.

The election of Paris Gibson Of Great
Falls to the United States senate by the
legislature this morning was a great
surprise to many Anacondans, yet a
goodly number of citizens have been
heard to say that almost anything might
be expected of the general assembly
which has been in session in Helena
lately.
But no one thought for a moment that
Paris Gibson N/nld be the man. Day
before yesterday Frank money was easy
and plenty of men could have been
found who would have wagered almost
any sum that the Butte man would get
enough votes at the eleventh hour to
elect him. Yesterday certain ones We're
willing to take chance that enough OF
the fusionists would flock to Carter to
elect him. Others took the view th:t
Il dark horse would finally succeed, but
no one ever dreamed that the Great
Falls man would carry off the persm-
mons. In all the talk INDUCED in over
dark horses Mr.. Gibson has not been
mentioned. But there is a feeling of re-
lief in Anaconda that the contest is
over, that events of the legislature have
passed into history.

The hunters from the interior of
Labrador had not heard of the death

from the woods a few days ago. No
