VOTE COMING IN VERY
SLOWLY IN THE SEVENTH

Men came out to vote slowly III the
Seventh and the most Of that wards vote
will he polled between I o'clock and the
hour at which the polls close. The line
of men before the ballot boxes was kept
solid from 10 o'clock on. Before that
time there was n spasm OF live ballot cast
ing when the polls first opened. As seems
to be the case right through on the fiat,
the voters in this ward are saying little
and are getting away from the polls soon
after they have east their ballots without
making any comment or remark 10 indi
cate which way their ballots went.
AT ~ o'clock the vote in the Seventh
stood trinc less than 900. II is ex-
pcctcd that the full vote OF this ward will
be cast withou, much difficulty. although
owing to the fact that a large laboring
mems vote comes in this ward a jam is
looked for toward evening.
No trouble in the way of challenges
came during the morning in the Seventh
and the best of order was observed at the
polls.

DUGGAN'S SUPPORTERS
SAID TO BE GOING

II was said in the Fourth ward in the
morning that Duggan's supporters were
dcserting him and going to Mueller and
Mullins. the citizens candidate getting
most Of them. Men standing around the
voting place and listening to the voters
talk said that there was a decided dcfcc-
tion in the ranks Of the laboritc mayor
atty candidates followers. and il was
argued by many observers that Mueller
would bc the chief beneficiary.
In the Fifth ward in the morning every
thing was very quiet and orderly. So far
rs could be heard or seen the voting vas
going along in a business-lke way, and it
was evident that nearly all or quite all of
the registered voters in the ward would
cast votes.
During the morning hours there had
been few challenges in the various wards.
with the voters swearing in their votes,
but no serious trouble. There was at that
time a decided lack OF accusations of
fraudulent voting. but as was rcmukcl
here and there. il was little early to eN-
pcct that sort of Thing to develop in a
yirulcnt form.

FIRST PRINCIPLE OF
PATRIOT is DEVOTION

"What great purpose they accomplished.
Devotion to nation is the first principle of
all Americans. 1t is the idea and ideal
of all Americans 1t is now the idea and
ideal of us all, men and women of North
and South alike"
Assistant Secretary Sanger sad "In
the absence of the secretary of war it is
my privilege to receive on behalf of the
United States these monuments which have
been erected to perpetuate the heroism OF the
soldiers of Indiana. 1t is fitting that the
state should make enduring record of the
part which her sons took in battle, and
the courage and devotion with which they
poured out their life's blood.
The federal government in accepting
these monuments becomes charged with
the duty OF guarding them and keeping
fresh in the memory of the people a rec
ord of the deeds which they commemo-
rate. In creating and keeping these ma
tional parks, the country is not merely
perpetuating the fame of brave men, it is
not merely recording with landmarks OF
granite and bronze the gallant acts SOL
diers OF both sides took in the contests of
the civil war it is not only emphasizing
the fact that a united country thinks with
pride of the valor of all heroes who fought
in that struggle, but it is prepetuating in
visible form the conviction that the ex-
amples of brave and faithful performance
of duty should be honored throughout.

BATTLES TO BE FOUGHT
IN TIMES OF PEACE

1--WE should never forget that the les
sons of war are but imperfectly learned, il
we think of them as only helping us to
bear ourselves in the face of an armed
enemy. In times of peace, there are bat
ties to be fought and victories to be won,
the effect of which upon the destnies of
the men are as far reaching as the results
of an armed conflict. Honor, courage in
tegrity, devotion to principle and the
truthful performance of duty are just as
essential to the greatness of free people
as courage and self-sacrifce are to the
success of fighting army.
"The principles upon which our gov
ernment rests do not of themselves in
sure good government. They merely
give to the people power to have that kind
of government which the people desire,
and they can make il as good or as bad as
they wish. As patriotic Americans we
shall not be discouraged because there is
need in SO many directions of faithful
work in improving existing conditions.
From these impressive scenes we can
draw inspiration and help for the better
performance of the duties which crowd
up as American citizens.
"The memory of the brave soldiers who
fought on this and other battle6elds will
never die, for so long as the country en-
dures, their example will help the men
and women in the years yet to come to
strive courageously toward that high
standard to which every American should
aspire"

The Butte inter mountain. [volume] (Butte, Mont.) 1901-1912, 1903-04-06

Election day in Butte was characterized
by display of great interest in the event
on the part of the entire community The
day opened quietly, so far as the gathering
at the polls was concerned, but by noon
crowds were on the streets and around the
polls. and there was plenty of noise and
music and excitement.
From the way the election started, it
was evident when the polls opened that
there would be a big vote in every ward
in the city There was great deal of
voting done quietly and without remark,
and for that reason 1t was difficult to
gauge the situation as to the chances Of
election of the respective candidates.
Nevertheless the citizens party candi-
dates and their friends had reason from all
the indications to take a hopeful view
of the situation. AS usual, there was all
kinds of talk pedded out by the work
ers of the different parties, and every man
running for Office was elected and defeated
a hundred times during the day-to hear
the different prophets tell il.
The citizens who supported Henry Muel-
Ter for mayor and voted the citizens
party ticket went to the polls and voted
without much demonstration, and IL was
stated by people who looked closely into
the days work that heavy vote for
Mueller and his fellow nominees was cast.
There were those on the streets who con-
hdently predicted the victory OF the citi-
zens' party ticket in the main, with a
good majority for Mueller.
The day passed without serious disturb
ances anywhere-that part OF the day pre-
ceding the time the paper went to press.

M0FFETS TENDER A
DUAL RESIGNATION
At LIVINGSTON
Professor and His Wife
Leave Schools and Re-
turn to the East.
spEcrAL TO THE INTER MOUNTAIN.


Livingston, April 6.--i'roi. Mark Mof-
fet, principal of the Livingston public
schools, has resigned and stepped out, ac-
companied by his wife, who held posi-
tion as teacher.
For long time there has been friction
between the professor and the trustees,
and one Of the issues of the school cleo
ton Saturday was the retention of the
Moncts.
This was, in fact, the main issue Of
the campaign, and the fight was waged
with considerable bitterness. The battle
went against the Mofiet ticket, which was
beaten nearly 2 to !.
When the result was made known the
professor and his wife promptly rendered
their designations, which were accepted
without delay.
The position of principal will be allowed
to remain vacant until the end of the
present term, when a new man will be
chosen. No one has as yet been selected
for the place
Prof Molfet and his wife will go east
at once, where it is understood they have
been rendered excellent positions in an
educational institution.
The objection to the Moffets was for
the reason that charges had been made
against them. They were alleged to be
overbearing in their demeanor, and with
trying to run things to suit themselves,
instead of as the authorities of the dis
trct wished.

Efforts Of i. Aug. lcinze to have re
duccd TO IS a day the $500 a month com
pcnsaion paid 10 Gen. John S. Harris,
receiver OF the Snohomish and the Tram
way mines, has failed
Judge Knowles Of the United States
court, after hearing number OF wit
nosses this morning, decided that $500
was little enough for the receiver, and
incidentally mildly rebukcd the Heinzc
interests for attempting to secure re
duction.
THE various courts OF the country
have held" said the judge in making his
decision, that the value OF the services
OF receiver cannot be determined by
the physical work he does.
In the case under consideration it is
the reliability and the responsibility OF
the receiver that should be paid for, and
! want to say right here that he has
performed work that no mining supcrin-
tendent in this district would do for
any $500 month.
Responsibility and Ability.
THE testimony introduced by the wit
nesses for Mr. Heinze amounts to moth
ing, so far as showing the value of the
work done by the receiver amounts to
the true test is the responsibility and the
ability shown.
''for the present the application for a
reduction in the compensation paid the
receiver is denied. What may be done
later on | cannot say, but nothing will
be done at this time to change the amount
fixed originally by this court"
J. NJ. Denny, who appeared for Mr..
Heinze, asked for and was granted stay
Of IS days in which to perfect an appeal
in case he wishes to do so.
Attorney Burleigh represented the re-
ceivcr, who was the first witness called.
General Harris told of his appointment as
receiver and detailed the work he has
done in connection with the two mines.
He maintained an office, he said, had two
men looking after the mines, and from
them received daily reports.
Handles Big Sums.
II now have on hand" he said, "the
sum of $4,000, and since taking the re-
ceivership have handled nearly million
and half of dollars. | have not had time
to attend to any other business, and have

ership matter.
