mentioned in that connection. The news

for the Democrats to meet IN convention

Walker has been leader in his party

standpoint, than any Democrat mention

SAVE THE JEWS.

The deliberate and announced plan Of
the Russians to kill Jews in that country
on the Russian Christmas day early next
month as part OF the festivities OF the
day is an outrage on Christian civiliza-
tion, and the man who docs not raise
his voice against such wholesale and un-
warranted murder is neither Christian
nor a civilized member Of society. The
nations Of the earth have duty to
perform in this connection and it is ur-
gent that they not promptly and con
certedly. The powers OF modern civili-
zation should hunt up their ammunftions
OF @ar and wipe Russia off the earth, if
THAT country attempts such awful butch
cry. The United States should not be
the last to iHtcrccle for these helpless
people. Warships ought at this moment
to be on their way to that country to
prevent any such outrage upon humanity
as is contemplated by the Russians.

some Republicans for office to the neg

Siders Indignant That Any Change

K. M. Goshorn, Il. A. Churchill and
Harry Fine We're appointed by the
county commissioners Saturday, to
fill the vacancies on the high school
board.
There will be a meeting held to-
night for the purpose of accepting or
rejecting the offer of the Kalispell
Townsite of a location on the east
SIDE for the new high school build
ing. The old board did not favor a
change from the site now occupied,
and it is said that the quiet and snug
corner in which the school is now
located is great advantage.
If the site should be changed it
would be an injury to many people
who have bought property and built
dwelling houses in The vicinity of the
present high school, solely because
Of the fact that the school is there
Since the high school was built there
las been dozens Of lots purchased in
that vicinity, ana many handsome
and commodlous houses have been
erected. When the site was accepted
i was with the understanding that it
was to be permanent, and so the old
board understood it, as did the gen
eral public. For one or two members
0! the present board to get in and
work for change of location has
aroused the Indignation of the people
Cf the west side, who are financially
interested in the high school staying
where it is.
The chief objection of the east
s;ders is the distance their children
have to walk to attend school, but
they don t stop to consider that if

James 3. Marcum Shot by an Un-
Known Assassin.
AT COURT HOUSE ENTRANCE
Has Been Regarded as Marked Man
for the Sympathy He Extended to
the CockreIl Faction-A Similar
Murder Which Occurred Last July
on the Same Spot.

Lexington, KY, May Aust after
he had finished filing briefs opening
the contested election case of Breat-
hitt county, James B. Marcum was
shot and killed by an unknown assas-
sin. He fell in his tracks at the
front entrance of the court house, at
Jackson, KY, and never spoke, death
being instantaneous He fell within
few yards of where Town Marshal
James COckrell was shot down in
July last, the assassin being sta
toned in the court house in each in
stance. Marcum was counsel for the
fusionists who are cOnteSting the Of
fees of sheriff and other places now
held by the democrats, the result of
his efforts and his sympathy with
the COckrell faction in Hargrave-
Cockrell feud. He had for year
generally been regarded as a marked
man. Marcum's body lay for 10 min
utes untouched, even his friends
feared to approach the place or to
touch the body. 1t was finally picked
up by friends, who took it to a drug
store opposite, and from there it was
taken home. Some say that they
saw the assassin run out of the rear
door, and it seems certain that he
has made his escape during the con
fusion. It is generally believed that
the assassin was recognized by sew
eral persons, but no one thus far has
had the courage to name him.

Butte, May 4.-Despite the fact
that all the evidence adduced at the
inquest last night went to show con-
clusively that George Bentz ended
his life in his room, No. IS in the
Paumie block, early Sunday morn
ing, the jury for some reason re-
turned a non-committal verdict, as
follows: THAT George Bentz came
to his death as the result of pistol
wound, whether self inflicted or not
the jury is unable to determine from
the evidence. Coroner Egan was sat
isfied that Bentz was suicide, and
Immediately after the verdict was re-
turned ordered the discharge of En-
ma Kennedy and Ruth Hayes, who
had been held in custody by the po-
lice on Suspicion. Bentz was infatu-
ated with the Hayes woman and
killed himself because of unrequited
love.

He saw the outside door open, and
with Hilton made a search of the
cells, resulting in the discovery of
the escape. There is no light in the
cell room, and as Jailer Hilton is
quite deaf, the two men had no trou-
BILE in giving him the slip.
They left behind them their knives
and the two bars, and there was no
trouble in finding the means used to
escape. An immediate pursuit was
made, but without success. The men
displayed infinite patience in saving
through the bars and must have been
aided by the other prisoners, as it
would be impossible for them to have
worked any length of time without
some of the prisoners knowing CT It.
AS the bars were close to the floor,
the men could have hidden the saw
marks through the day by smearing
soap over them and unless the TAIL
er's would get down on their knees
and examine each bar there was lit.
tie danger of discovery.
McCourt and Black were two of
the men arrested several weeks ago
for holding up section foreman on
First avenue west. and robbing him
O. a considerable amount of money.
McCOurt was arrested the next
rorning, but Black escaped and was
picked up several days later Davis,
the third man of the trio, is now in
the county jail The trial of the
three men was to have been had
this week.
1t is thought that the escaped Jail
breakers have added horse stealing
to their other crimes. as two valuable
horses belonging to James Fuzee. a
resident of Helena Flats. were stolen
some time last night. and as McCourt
and Davis are acquainted with the
surroundings at his ranch, suspicion
has fallen on them. Beyond this
slight clew no trace of the men has
yet been found and their chances for
escape are bright.
