ANARCHISTS AND
 SOCIALISTS FIGHT
TWO MEN ARE SHOT AS RESULT OF AN ATTEMPT OF ANARcH- IsTS TO PREVENT LEADING So- CiALiST SPEAKING.

Barre. Vt, Oct. 4-one dying man, an- other suffering from a serious but not necessarily fatal bullet wound, and a third under arrest charged with firing the shots, Is the outcome of the latest clash between the anarchists and socialists of this city. The feeling between the two parties has been intense for many months and conflicts, more or less serious, have been of almost daily occurrence.
 Dr. Giacinto Menotti Sereatti, editor of the socialist newspaper published in New York. had been invited to address local socialists, some fifty of whom had con- gregated in the socialists hall. While the audience was awaiting the arrival of the speaker. fifteen anarchists, headed by Eli Corti, made their appearance at the hall and declared they would not per- init Sereatti to address the gathering.
 During the fight that followed the threat, it Is alleged that Alexander Gar retto drew a revolver and fired point blank at Corti the ball lodging in the latter's stomach. The second shot went wild and the third struck Emilio Vochini in the arm. When the anarchists saw their leader fall, they sprang upon Gar retto and hurled him down stairs to the street. The fight ended only when large detail of police had reached the hall. Dr. Sereatti is detained as a wit ness and on a charge of breach of the peace.

A Wonderful Gathering.

And this is the most noteworthy when we consider that some twelve different nationalites, swayed by as many nation- al characteristics, were represented in the assembly. On leaving the Sistine chapel at the conclusion of the conclave. and contemplating the overruling action of the Holy Ghost on these heterogene- ous clements, I exclaimed, The finger of God is here.'
 Two ballots were cast each day in the conclave, one in the forenoon and anoth- CT in the afternoon. The votes for Cardi- nal Sarto steadily increased from the first to the seventh ballot, on which he

Candidate for Clerk Of Court.

J. f. Foxworthy of Ryno,
authorizes the REPUBLICAN TO
state that he is a candidate for
the Office of Clerk of the District
Court. Mr.. Foxworthy is no
stranger to the people of Custer
county. For the past sixteen
years he has been a resident of
Custer township and has been an
effective worker in the ranks of
the republican party. He served
as committeeman through the
long years of pop rule and did
his part in seeing the large pop
majority of his township trans
formed into republican MAORI
ty. On two different occasions
he has been made the standard
bearer of his township and won
out with handsome majorities,
showing something of his popu-
larity at home. At time when
the township had a majority of
40 populist he was nominated for
supervisor of the district against
John Conley and carried his own
township but failed in election
as the other townships in the dis
trict had populist majorities.
Last year he was elected town.
ship clerk over one of the most
popular men in the pop ranks.
Mr.. Foxworthy has won political
recognition and is worthy and
capable of the Office he seeks.
His candidacy is entitled to due
consideration by the republicans
of Custer county.

er for the educational interests of
the county. He has inaugerated
methods that have greatly i'm
proved and stimulated school
work by teachers and school
officers. He has increased the
standard of the teaahing force.
He has been untiring in his
efforts and has zealously guarded
the sacred trust in him imposed.
He is young man thoroughly
equipped in the latest and best
methods and a scholar of high
attainment. His experience the
past two years with his other &C.
quired attainments make his
services to the county of greater
value than could be that of any
one else at the present time.
There should be no question
about his denomination for the
second term, not merely because
it is due him. as a common
courtisie for the faithful perform
ance of duty but because of his
high moral worth, educational
fitness and valuable services to
the county. No new man can carry
olt the methods he has inauguer-
ated as can he. The republican
county convention can not do bet
ter than to make his renomina-
tion unanimous by acclamation.

should be.
