OREGON SHORT LINE ANNOUNCES
ARRANGEMENTS FOR CONVEYING
CROWDS TO SALT LAKE.
A MEAN MAN MAKES AN
INSULTING SUGGESTION
They Of the Antlers Are to Sleep in the
Specials at the Convention City and
Someone Suggested That Rockets Be
Fired Oh in the Dawn to Show Them
the Way to Their Own Particular Cars

II. o. Wilson, local agent for the Ore
gon Short Line, has just prepared cir
cular for the information of agents Of
other roads and for Elks throughout the
state, giving the schedule of excursion
trains for the meeting of the Grand Lodge
at Salt Lake. August IL.
As the time for the big meeting-now
only two weeks away-approaches, in
quiries are coming in from every direction
and the railroad has concluded that there
will be big attendance from Montana
ard, regardless of the Elks special, which
will leave the evening of the nth, has an
nounced special excursion rates for the
9th, roth and nth on trains lea.ing BUTTE
at s:o5 a. III. and so p. III.
Six Trains for Excursionists.
On these dates, Butte and Anaconda
agencies will sell excursion tickets to Salt
Lake and return at the rate of SIS Tor the
round trip, the final return limit being
August 80 with continuous passage i'll
each direction. This will mean six trains
capable OF carrying several hundred to the
big meeting.
On August nth, the Elks' special, con-
ssting of Pullman cars exclusively, will
leave Butte at o'clock in the evening ar
irving at Salt Lake at o'clock the follow
ing morning. Transportation OH this train
will be in charge of the Elks' committee,
who will pay for the equipment on the per
diem basis, retaining their cars while in
Salt Lake.
Best Is None Too Good.
Every effort is being made to give the
Montana delegation and their friends the
best equipment possible, as the Elks have
instructed the railroad people that while
the best is none too good for them. there
is nothing too good for their friends
AS the Montana Elks will keep their
cars in Salt Lake during the meeting, they
will not be troubled about hotel accom-
modations. When night falls and Elk-like
they will all turn to their quiet and peace
able beds, they will not have to bother
the hotel clerks about getting their keys.
They will simply make tracks for the Mon
tana Elks' Special which will be side
tracked at convenient place easy of ac-
cess.
An Insulting Suggestion.
OF course, it will not be dark when the
visiting Elks turn their faces towards their
Pullman homes. They will seek their lairs
before the shadows grow very long-in
the morning. A suggestion by an official
from one of the railroads, that rockets
be fired off from the position of the Pull
man coaches at intervals during the night
was met with the indignation it merits.
The idea of any Elk needing pyrotechnics
to find his lair.
1t will be merry crowd that will leave
the Short Line depot week from next
Monday. They will all be in time for the
opening exercises on the morning of the
12th and the following day being the I3th,
many have decided to remain in their
berths until late in the day. 1t is not
good for Elks to travel much in strange
pasture on the 18th Of the month.

THIS IS ALL MONTANA SOCIALISTS
DEMAND IN THE. PLATFORM OF
THE BOzEMAN MEETING.
SAY LAB0RiNG CLASS is
0UTRAGE0USL,y TREATED
Want All Wealth to Be Distributed and
Government to Pass Into the Hands
Of the Working People--lt Is a Red
hot Document and Still Is Not Couch
ed in the Terms Commonly Used.

Montana socialists have taken new
departure in the making Of their platform
OF principles and instead of the usual
rambling and too often verbose pointing
with pride and viewing with alarm custom
ary with the older political organizations,
they put their revolutionary ideas Of a
division of all wealth and all labor rather
tcrsely. In addition to this they add in
separate instrument what they term their
Immediate Demands" in which they very
frankly and calmly demand the whole
universe and the fullness thereof
The platform aifirms unfatcring adher-
ence TO the principles OF international
socialism, and asserts that labor produces
all wealth and that under present condi-
tions labor's share in the wealth it creates
is mean uncertain and precarious exist
ence. II proceeds to explain that under
the present economic system the capitalist
monopolzes the means of production, and
appropriates, through thc'wagc system, the
wealth created by the workers. and then
proceeds to explain the cause OF the con-
tinuous struggles between labor and capi-
tai, claiming that there is but one remedy
for the ills OF which they complain. and
that is the ballot.
The platform then declares that the
socialist party is forever unalterably op-
posed to any political party not founded
entirely and only in the interests of the
laboring class, and closes with an appeal
to everyone to stand by the principles and
demands Of the party.
The Immediate Demands
Then comes the declaration of "Imme-
diate Demands" in which demand is
made for the passage of constitutional
amendment in this state making the s.
hour law part of that document. They
then declare themselves in favor OF the old
populistic doctrine OF the initiative and
referendum.
Universal suffrage without regard to sex
is also prominent feature OF their some
what remarkable instrument.
Declaration is made in favor OF trades
unions and blacklisting is vigorously de-
nounced and demand made for The pass
age of an equitable and just employers
liability act.
In conclusion it is explained that while
these demands are made they are but the
temporary means to an end, the ultimate
object OF the party being TO transfer the
control OF all the machinery of government
to the direction of the working class-the
producers--and the substitution by them of
the socialist plan of collective ownership
| of the means Of prorduction and distribu-
tion in place Of which is termed "our pres
cnt system OF industrial anarchy

AN UNFl NIsHED STORY.
A Point Where in Telling II the Rev.
Or. Burrows Always Stop.

Chicago Record Herald: Rev DR..
John Henry Barrows president of OBJ
erin college, who formerly preached to
Chicago congregation, tells a little
story concerning an experience of his
own that may be Worth passing along.
N was at the time that DIR. Barrows
was making arrangements for the held
ing of the great congress of religions
here. He had an immense correspond
ence to take of, and found it necessary
to employ stenographer. The young
lady MAS pretty. 1t is not to be in
ferred thatthereare any but pretty lady
stenographers. but the one employed by
Dr. Barrows was especially comely
The doctor fitted up a workroom on
the third floor of his house. where he
and the stenographer toiled hard day
after day, undisturbed by callers and
we'll away from the noises of the
streets.
The work of preparing for the con-
gress was still going forward on the
l4th of February, when the doctors lit
tie son became excited over the send
ing and receiving of valentines. The
boy had been running about the neigh
borhood handing love tokens to the
children he knew and many had come
to him, when he remembered that he
had Il father up on the third floor, in
addition to the one in heaven. Going to
his mother. he proposed that they send
up a valentine.
Well said Mrs. Barrows. ut is very
nice of you to remember father. How
would it do for me to write valentine
for him and let YOU take it up?"
The boy was delighted at the idea
and his mother wrote upon a sheet of
paper:
please kiss the bearer"
This she placed in an envelope, which
WAS properly sealed and addressed to
the doctor. The boy started upstairs
With his valentine, but he had been
running around a good deal during the
mornng and his legs We're weary.
When he had reached the second floor
he met the pretty stenographer, who
had started out after postage stamps
or something, and asked if she wouldn't
be kind enough to hand the note to his
father
she took the envelope, gave the child
bat on the cheek and ran back up
stairs. where-perhaps prompted by
feminine curiosty-she waited while
DR. Barrows opened his valentine and
read iii his wife's handwriting:
please kiss the bearer.
Here is where DR.. Barrows always
cuts the story off.
