Factionalism in Montana.

When the opulent Marcus DAILY died
eighteen months ago 1T was generally
thought that Senator Clark. even more
opulent than his old-time foe, was left
in absolute control of the Democratic
party in Montana. This probably would
conditions that even money and pres
tige cannot always control, to Wit, the
desire of F. Augustus Heinze to be
reckoned with in Montana politics and
the fact that there are many more
Democrats in the State than Republic
cans. Mr.. Heinze is getting enormous
ly rich en- Montana minerals. and until
few weeks ago was Republican lead
er In that part Of the country. When
ne announced his conversion to the
Democracy it was suspected that Sena-
tor Clarks troubles to hold the State
would be revived. Heinze failed TO
carry the recent State convention. He
now has started new party which he
calls the antitrust Democracy. His
avowed object is to elect certain men
to the bench in Montana. which. it may
be remarked not altogether tmperti-
nently, introduces a new and strange
contention into contemporary politics.
Judges are supposed to be non-partisan-
But if Mr.. Heinze insists upon electing
his men to the bench the inference is
natural that he is proceeding upon the
belief that the men nominated for the
bench by the Clark faction are pretu-
diced against his interests.

crown princess.
Thus. before leaving Brussels. after
peing driven from the bedside Of her
dead mother at Spa, Princess Stephanie
paid long visit to her uncle and aunt,
the Count and Countess Of Flanders, at
their palace at Brussels, and was well

Spa would lead one to believe that Prin-

indignity to which Leopold subjected her
sister, 1t is only fair to her to state
that she is on the most affectionate
terms with the ex-crown princess. She
did not arrive at Spa with her father,

moment of the latter's death. She had
welcomed her sister Stephanie on the
latter's arrival, and was kneeling with
her at the bedside Of the dead Queen

curtailed as possible.

was the absence of relatives and repre-
