FIRE ALARM.

Last Saturday afternoon about
5 O'Clock the alarm of fire was
given to which the citizens of the
town responded promptly. 1t
was discovered that the blaze was
at Edwards gin and was extin-
guished before any serious dam
age was done. The fire origina-
ted inside one of the stands, the
first discovery being the lint on
fire as it came from the stand.
There were 10 or IA bales in the
gin at the time. The generally
accepted theory as to the start OF
the blaze is that a match ran
through the stand.

A SAD DEATH.

Mrs. James Fore died at her
home, five miles from Evening
Shade last Saturday, after an
illness of about two weeks. Mrs.
Fore was only 81 years OF age,
and had been married not quite a
year, He death will be deeply
regretted by a large circle of
friends who loved her and hon.
ored her truly womanly and
Christian character. She leaves
an infant child, a young hus-
band and a number of relatives
in sorrow, to whom the entire
community would extend sym.
pathy.
The deceased was a daughter
of Sheriff Jasper Hutchison, and
our people sympathize with him
greatly in this bereavement,
which comes upon him so aoon
after the loss of his wife.

DEMOCRATIC PRIMARIES.

Consultation with Democrats
Of various townships of the coun.
ty shows an apparent unanimity
in favor of holding our primary
and convention on the dates fixed
at the last state convention, viz,
the last Saturday in March for
the primary and the first Satur-
in April for the county conven-
ton. The state organization
having set these dates, and the
sentiment throughout the state
being so strong in favor of un i
form dates for primaries, it is
probable that the next, state con-
vention would refuse to recognize
the regularity of primaries held
on any other date. Therefore,
unless public notice is given to
the contrary, the Democratic
voters of Sharp county, and the
candidates for office, may UNDER
stand that the primary will be
held on Saturday, March 30, 1902,
and the convention on Saturday,
April 5, 1902. In due time a

ty Central Committee will be

Western R. R. Presidents
Soon to Get Together.
MANY PLANS HUNG UP
Alarm Is Felt Over the Attitude of
Western Governors.
WALL SITS cRUMB OF COMFORT
Found in Reports That Attorney
General Douglas Won't Act
Under State Law.

Chicago, Nov. 27.-The meeting of west
ern railroad presidents to be held in New
York on Dec 5, probably will be the most
important since the famous meeting of
presidents on J. Pierpont Morgan's yacht
in New York some years ago, when the
"gentlemens" agreement was adopted. 1t
is year since the last conference Of rail-
road presidents was held, and since then
the community Of interest" scheme has
made wonderful progress and the entire
railroad situation has been changed.
The original combination plans, which
of all the western railroads into three
systems, received a severe setback
through the fight between the Hill and
Hartman interests which eliminated in
the Northern Pacific panic last spring.
Since then efforts have been made to
harmonic the conflicting interests, and
the formation of the $4OO. 900. 900 North
ern Securities company was the result.
The latter action has aroused the hos
tility of the governors and people of the
far western states, which is causing con-
siderable excitement and bids fair to
lead to hostile legislation.
The railroad magnates have become
alarmed and further combination schemes
have been abandoned for the present, and
for this reason E. H. Hartman, George
j. Gould and James J. Hill have joined
in a call for meeting of the presidents
to the best measures to be adopted to
allay the hostile feeling and to provide
for the maintenance Of rates.

Another ofthe Great Northern Train
Robbers Is Taken, This Time
in Montana.
Suffered From Nervous Pr0stration
and Permitted His Secret to
Leak Out It's Hanks.

'Longbaugh. Longbaugh where did I
meet you? oh, yes, 1 know" he said.
Then for the first time it was remem-
bered the interest he had shown in the ar
rest Of Lcngbaugh. He would ask for the
papers while he was lying in bed. When
these were given to him he would scan
them over as though looking for some
thing in particular. He improved after
several days, and has been able to be out
OF his shack, but seems to be wasting
away under strain.
After a few days Collins, who had here
tofore worn a smooth face, began to grow
small mustache. This came out sandy,
just like Hanks mustache when he wears
one. After this Deputy Ledbetter con-
cluded to call to his assistance another
ma nto whom he had confidence. He
brought this man and Collins together
without introducing them himself, and
since that time they have been together
a great portion of the time.
Story Wrested From Him.
1t was during this companionship that
Collins told his story. According to what
came to Great Falls the latter part Of
June. He had no musiness here then, he
says, but simply came to look about the
city for a few days.
The day after his arrival he says he was
in the Mint saloon, where he was intro
duced to Harvey Logan alias Kid Curry
and Harry Longbaugh. Ee cannot re-
member the name of the man who intro
duced him, but says the fellow seemed to
know them well. After the introduction
he says they stood about the saloon for
some time and then went upstairs into the
second story, where they sat down and
talked over matters. They had several
drinks up there, and the two men quizzed
him about his habits. After awhile they
asked him If he would be willing to take
a hand in something that would get him
little money-probably make him
wealthy.
Plot All Fixed Up.
At first Collins says he did not under
stand the men or what they meant, but as
sured them that he was in fer anything
there was money in. Then he says they
took him in their confidence and the
robbery was planned. He says Curry and
Longbaugh told him they had positive in
formation that there would be a large
amount of money on a train arriving at
Malta on July 8, and they then asked him
to go in with them and get his share OF
the loot. He says he consented and from
that time until after the robbery and di@
vision Of the booty they were never sepa-
rated.

Cabinet Member Has Strange
Idea Regarding Its Cher

Special to The Journal.
Washington, Nov. PA member of

All the leading high protectionsts of the
country have seen the presidents message,
and all are satisfied with it. Undoubtedly it
will strike many readers as q strong reci-

will be susceptible Of an Interpretation that
will give cheer to every protectionist in the
country who has been fearful that something
will be done about reciprocity in the COM

be unkind to his memory and impolitic. But
We can get down, and we will; and by the

WALL STREET REJOICEs
Financiers Seem to Believe That
Douglas Is Beaten.


Douglas Is Beaten.
Special to The Journal
New York, Nov. 27.-It is said in Wall
street to-day that the statement made
by Attorney General Douglas in st. Paul
last night shows plainly that he cannot
find any state law upon which to base an
attack on the Northern Securities COM
pany, and feeling akin to jubilation pre-
walls among the Hill-Morgan following.
Douglas opinion that the Sherman act
applies does not scare Hill, who says:
NO law, federal or state, has been violated
and none will be violated. The Northern Sc
curities company is a purely financial affair
and has nothing to do with the management
of the railways 1t will do business here
as it is now, and not in Minnesota or any
where else N the west. Like all New Jersey
corporations, it has dummy office in Jersey
City. but all the business is done in New
York.
Hill thinks Governor Van SAINT is going
to a great deal of trouble for nothing,
unless political claptrap is his aim.
Neither is any stock taken in the Wash
ington story that Attorney General Knox
is ready to begin a suit against the North
ern Securities. The charges, if any, will
have to be carefully formulated, properly
presented to the attorney general and
then carefully considered before any
action is possible.
The Minneapolis journal. [volume] (Minneapolis, Minn.) 1888-1939, 1901-11-27
GEN. DOUGLAS WORK
Until He Reports the Governor Will
Not Act

Attorney General Douglas now holds the
key to the anticonsolidation campaign.
Governor Van SAINT has referred the whole
question to him for a legal opinion, both
as to whether the law has been or is to
be violated, and as to the question of
procedure. Until Mr.. Douglas has made
thorough examination and informed the
governor of his deliberate judgment, no
further steps will be taken.
The attorney general has not selected
counsel to assist him, and probably will
not until he has gone over the question
thoroughly himself 1t may be two weeks
before the question reaches that stage
Governor Van SAINT will proceed with
business-like caution. He has seen the
suggestion in Washington dispatches com
ing from the United States attorney gen.
erals office, that he make formal com
plant to that department and set it's
wheels in motion against the Northern
Securities company. That suggestion may
be adopted in due time, but not now 1t
will depend on what the attorney general
says. That official has not gone far enough
with the question to give any hint Of his
intentions.
A friend of the governor said this morn
ing:
The governor may not move in this matter
as swiftly as some Of his advisers would like
to see. He is not going to go out and tear up
a section of Great Northern track, nor is he
going to plunge into a contest without being
sure of his ground.
Mr.. Hill has been planning the consolidation
Northwestern railways since 1895. and per-
haps farther back. He has had the benefit
OF frst-class legal talent at every step, and
has worked out his scheme gradually, with
great care not to lay himself legally liable
1t is only fair that in opposing Mr.. Hill
c., ,L,D
amount of time to consider and prepare for
the struggle, which means SO much to the
people of the state and country. He is not
going to do anything hastily.
The only hasty thing the governor has
done was to announce that he was going
to fight The haste Of that announcement
had an ned in view. 1t was done to alarm
the financial world for the safety of the
big deal and to block its consummation.
