ENTHUSIASTIC
MEETING.

About the same number as greeted
William Lindsay assembled at the
opera house Tuesday evening to listen
to Hon. John M. Evans and Jessie
Root, who spoke from the democratic
standpoint.
Mayor T.. Newman introduced the
speakers in words that showed the sim
cerity of purpose with which the
Democratic cause was viewed by the
people. The meeting was enthusiastic
and the Havre city band was COM
plimented on the musical numbers
furnished. Mr.. Evans was the first
speaker and showed how the president
had allowed citizens of Colorado to
be deported and outraged without
protest on the part of the admins
t alton. He exploded the argument Of
the Republicans that the president
was without authority to protect a
citizen whether within or without
the confines Of his native country.
He showed how the lumber lands OF
the Feathead reservation were to be
sold to the highest bidder, and OBJ
jected to. the bill for opening said re-
servation in that manner: maintain
ing that the timber land should have
subject to entry under appropriate
laws, instead Of being sold to the big
sawmill interests of the country. lie
read from Mr.. Dixon's the Missoulian
an article which advocated the driv-
ing out Of citizens who did not agree
with it, and that the doctrine adyo-
Gated was put into practice in Col
orado within 80 days after such doc
trine was promulgated by Mr.. Dixon's
paper.
Mr.. Roote discussed national issues
and made a most convincing argument.
showing how the national expenses
had increased under the present
administration. He said the present
administration had violated the con-
stitution and Declaration Of Indepen-
dence, and all written and unWritten
international law in recognizing the
republic of Panama within "a hours
af.e r bakers dozen Of adventures
had issued a proclamation of reyolu-
ton, and that such action was taken
in the interest of few financial
schemers in Wall street.

COMMERCE and INDUSTRY

with the subway strike. This lockout
involves nearly $4,000 skilled workmen
and laborers in more than dozen diff
ferent trades and affects places with
in radius of twenty-five miles around
New York. Prior to this additional
strikes had been ordered against the
Fuller company by the Building Trades
alliance, and the Brotherhood Of Paint
ers had strucl 'or 81 day. The order
was expected to be met by solid wall
of unionism in sympathy strike.
Photographers on Strike.
Railroad traffic on the Missouri, Kan
sas and Texas systems was crippled
Aug. 1 by the strike of 1000 teleg-
raphers. The strike followed a fail
ure to adjust differences on hours and
wages.
Teamsters Aiding the Butchers.
Two new factors entered the beef
strike last week. One was the decision
of the Teensters union to discontinue
delivery Of ice to the meat dealers.
The effect of this was to embarrass
many Of the dealers by limiting their
supplies. The other factor was the ar
rival of a train load Of immigrant
strike breakers direct from Ellis island,
New York. The freight handlers were
also ordered by their leaders to refuse
to handle beef trust goods. The pack
ers continued to do business on about
a 30 per cent scale, and 400 union men
returned to work. In the neighbor-
hood of the stockyards there were
daily collisions between police and
strikers. At Omaha Governor Mickey
went among the strikers dressed as a
laboring man, and then decided that
there was no need for sending state
troops at present. The department of
commerce and labor began an investi-

A Story of Matt Carpenter.

Matt Carpenter. the famous Wis
consin senator. was pleading case be-
fore the supreme court. Before he had
got half through with his argument the
judges had made up their minds that
his case was without merit, and, more
over, that he was unprepared. When
he finished his argument and counsel
for the other side got up to reply the
judges whispered to each other, nodded
and then the chief justice said, 81 don't
think it will be necessary to hear from
you, sir" Carpenters opponent was
deaf, and he could only tell that the
chief justice was addressing him. He
turned to Carpenter for aid. "What
did the chief justice say, MattY' he
whispered. "He said he'd rather give
you the case than listen to you," Car
penter bawled in his ear.

HATS OF STRAW.
China Gets the Credit For Having
First Made Them.

China Gets the Credit For Having
First Made Them.
The earliest makers OF straw hats
were unquestionably the Chinese.
Their work was by no means rough
in character, but plated and sewn to-
gether with considerable skill, as may
be seen today in the neighborhood of
Canton.
In Europe hats were first made in
Paris by a Swiss so early as 14O4, and
we find mentioned among the entries
Of an inventory Of the effects Of Sir
John Fastolfe, 1859 -four strawen
hattes," showing them to have been
great rarities. Coryatt mentions them
as worn in Provence with a hundred
seams. lined with silver and curiously
worked.
Tuscany, with Leghorn as a center,
took up the work early in the fifteenth
century and has maintained it with
considerable skill ever since. Bedford
shire, with Dunstable and Luton as
centers, has been the headquarters of
the industry in England ever since the
early part of the seventeenth century.
