GHOST DANCERS TO
HOLD A P0W-W0W
HElNzE'S MEN WILL MEET TONIGHT
TO EAT AND TALK OVER
THE SITUATION.
AS TO THAT NEW PARTY
Probable Personnel Of the Ticket to Be
Put Into the Field-Muns for
Lieutenant Governor.

There is to be another ghost dance at
the rooms Of the Messiah Fritz Augustus
Heinze in Broadway tonight.
AT the dinner which will preced it, COW
ers will be laid for IL. The intention was
to have the entire Silver Bow delegation
to the egislature-except Larry Duggan,
of course, who refuses to wear Heinzc's
collar and John acGinniss-present In
tentions do not always go, however.
Rumors were rife this afternoon that
several members Of the delegation. here
tofore counted among the Heinze ghost
dancers, have revoltod and refused to fight
fair trial legislation at his behest. OF
course the revolters will not be at the
banquet.
Purpose OF the Pow-Wow.
The purpose Of tonight's pow-wow is to
get the delegation i'll line to carry OH
llenze's fight for him in the legislature.
II is to give the men their orders with a
suitably amount of champagne TO wash
them down, on which they are TO work at
Helena.
The plan is not to permit outsiders TO
be present. In fact secrecy has character
lied all the movements in the matter. By
no means is it to be so open or general a
gathering as that Of last Sunday night
AS to That New Party.
There will be some talk, OF course. about
Henze's proposed new party to be known
as the Octopus Busters. The men will he
told TO boost the movement along ard to he
present at the so. called mass convention
which Fritz Augustus will conduct at
Helena December 7.
However. this is but side issue. The
real purpose of tonight's meeting is to
cndeavor to get things in such shape that
fair trial legislation will be defeated or
blocked
Heinze's attempt to put forward his
Octopus Busting party is attracting much
interest and considerable merrimcnt
throughout the state. When A. G.
Gormley, who attended the Sunday night
ghost dance, returned to his home in
Great Falls he found that his action was
received by his political friends with any
thing but enthusiasm.
This moved Gormley TO publish a card
in the Great Falls Tribune Of Thursday
setting forth what he termed his reasoss
for joining the Henze movement.
Threatens TO Belt.
In effect this card declared that in case
lne tclHbCEtllt parry hIu ioi permit MN
and few others to dictate all nominations
he would bolt and fight the democrats
under the Eleinze red flag. 1t contained
much wind concerning Gormley's opposi-
ton 10 Corporation control Of politics,
but throughout was a virtual admission by
him that for his part he was perfectly
willing 10 consent to United Court and
Copper company's domination.
The Great Falls Tribune OF Friday con-
tains forecast Of the Heinze slate as
now made up. Here it is:
Congresses. G. Murray Of Missoula.

superintendent Of schools.
