st He SIX" AGAINST HEARST
Democratic Convention at Great Falls
On the Seventeenth.

HELENA, Mont, May 13.-All eyes
of the democratic fold are turning to-
ward Great Falls. where, on the 18th,
will be held the state convention to
choose six delegates to the St. Louis
Montana politics, Heinze, the young
Butte mining millionaire. who has as
pirations to succeed Paris Gibson, in
the United States senate. is the I'M
known quantity.
A Well-knoWn democratic authority
asserts that Hearst win fail abjectly in
the effort to capture Montana's
delegation. Judging by the editorial
references in his papers to Bryans
Clark, who has heretofore been very
friendly to Mr.. Bryan, has given the
Nebraskan the cold shoulder. And
as Bryan and Hearst have gone
through the present preliminary hand
in hand, it is held that, in order to be
consistent, Senator Clark will also
have to pass up Hearst.
In addition to this, it is known that
Senator Clark bears no great personal
liking for the New York congressman.
On the other hand, the leading organ
of the DAILY faction has bitterly antag-
onized Hearst's candidacy from it's
inception. And with Clark and Daily
leaders fighting him, it is difficult to
see how Hearst can hope to capture
the delegation unless Henize should
control the convention, which is, per-
force, improbable.
The consensus has been summarized
by leading democratic politician in
this wise:
After a careful analysis of senti-
ment, I am inclined to the belief that
MOntana's delegation will be composed
of Parker men-not necessarily so in
structed. for the convention will hard
ly instruct the delegation, but Par
ker men at heart. l have seen what
purports to be a list of the delegates
and among them I can find no Hearst
men,"

few visitors, she continues to take
great interest in all matters affecting
the care of the sick or wounded and
those who nurse them. She has a very

most of the year at the home of her

NURSING MOTHERS

"A richer milk than milk "
is good food for nursing
mothers. SCOTS Emulsion is
the rich cream of cod liver
oil, and contains ten times as
much cream as milk does.
The nursing mother must
eat with the purpose of pro-
ducing good, nourishing milk
for her baby. A little SCOTS
Emulsion is often a very wise
addition to her daily diet. If
through nervousness or weak
ness her milk is a failure,
SCOTS Emulsion will help
make it a success.
The baby gets the benefit
too, when the mother takes
SCOTS Emulsion. The same
remedy brings new strength
and nourishment to both.

ABOUT SI,5OO BEHIND.
That Is What the Semi Centennial
Books VII IShOw.

A practically correct guess at the con-
dition of the treasury of the Semi-Cen-
tennial committee shows a deficit of
about 81, 500. Tuesday morning at ten
O clock the committee will meet in the
Commercial club rooms to audit the
bills and accounts and at that time a
definite statement will be made
This is better than was expected af-
ter the general resume of conditions
which was made at the meeting Thurs
day noon. At that time it was thought
that $4,000 would not cover the snort
age, but Friday night and Saturday
helped out in good shape. From the
Parker shows about 81, 900 was received,
of which $500 was for concessions. Fig
uring on the basis of the contract, that
the show company ahould receive fifty
per cent of the receipts at the gate,
eighty-fiVe per cent of Ine Pike re-
ceiptS, and fifty per cent of the money
paid for concessions, there is little doubt
but Mr.. c.. W. Parker hard something
to add on TO his bank account when he
left Topeka-in' spite of the bad weather
Just what the cost of running the fes-
tiyities will be cannot be determined
until all of the bills are in. On Thurs
day, Major Anderson had rough
statement showing the entire debit side
of the ledger to be over $4,000. When
asked this morning whether that state
ment has proven itself true, he replied
L
hard to figure UP just now how we do
stand, in fact absolutely impossible.
From rough guesses 1t is thought that
we shall be about 81 500 behind. But
that is not official, and will not be until
after our meeting Tuesday morning at
which time some definite information
can be given out"
It is thought by some of the members
of the committee that the bills won I
run over s4 900 and upon that they fig
ure the deficit of $1,000. But that, too,
is of course uncertain. Very few of the
accounts were in this morning, and it
! is question: BILE whether the exact con-
ditions of things can be arrived at in
! tomorrow's meeting.
That the assOcia tiOn is in the hole
/ is a fact, and the deficit can be charged
up directly against the bad weather
which ruined several days of the week
programme. Had the six days been fair
! the association would have easily beer
1 in the clear. The committee made
strenuous efforts to keep the Parker
shows here another week and that con-
Germ wished to do so, only Emporia
where they show this week insisted
/ fore leaving Mr.. Parker asked for a re-
turn date. Something may be done
about that tomorrow.
If the shortage does not run over ST.

nittee went around three weeks ago tc

ANTHONY WRIT GRANTED
His Case VIII Be Argued With Allen
BOWersOcl1 Controversy.

The application for the writ of man
damus asked for by D. r. Anthony, jr..
to compel Secretary of State Burrow to
certify Anthony's name as the Republi-
can candidate for congress in the First
district. was presented to the supreme
court today and granted.
The case will be argued at the same
time as the Allen -BOwersock case from
the Second district either on Thursday
or Friday of this week. Most of the
questions of law in both cases are the
same. The cOnstitutiOnality of the law
creating the contest board and making
its decision final will be attacked-if
the court indicates that the boards de-
cision is final The authority of the
board to go behind the conventions Will
also be argued. In the First district
case the segregation of the Leaven-
worth Soldiers Home arises, which is
not in the Second district case. Whether
this also will be argued this week is not
known.
Congressman BowersOck is here today
to look after his interests in the Sec
ond district case. With him are his at
torneys, c. W. TrickStt of Kansas City
and F. r. Ogg of Olathe. D. r. Hite
and w. s. jerks are here looking after
Aliens interests. and Mr.. Hite also pre-
sented the First district application to
the court as attorney for Anthony.

OVER SlO6,OOO.O
State and Private Bank Deposits Tell
Story of Prosperity.

The partial story of Kansas prosper
ity is effectively told by a few figures
compiled today by State Bank Commis-
SiOner Albaugh in answer to a request
from a CORES SpOndent. They show that
in the last ten years the bank deposits
of Kansas have increased just about
800 per cent.
The last report of the deposits in the
state and private banks of Kansas was
made on March ID. At that time Mr..
Albaugh gave the combined figures for
that call and the report OF the national
banks made in January This gave the
total deposits for the state at approx
mately S103, 000, 900. Another national
bank report was made on March %,
however. and the figures compiled from
that report show considerable IN
crease. They are as follows:
Deposits in state and pri-
vate banks on March IA. .s51, ,2s0, ,291. rs
Deposits in national banks
on March 2S............... 50, ,300 $50. 81
Total bank deposits. .s106. .5s1 1S2. SO
little less than ten years ago, on
July Is, 1894. both the state and nation
al banks repcSted on the same date. All
the banks in the state on that date had
only S35, $50. .632.73 in deposits. Last
March they We're three times that fig
ure.
This does not. of course. begin to tell
the real truth of Kansas prosperity.
Ten years ago the state was covered
with mortgages owned in the east. Now
those have practically all been paid
off. This was done before the money
began to pile up in the banks to SC
great an extent. Then the farmers
bought more land. They sent money
east for rubber-tired buggies. They
bought new and improved farm ma
chinery. New houses We're built and
we'll furnished. Millions and millions
of dollars have gone into such improve
mentS, and on top of all that the state
has three times as much in the banks
subject as it had ten years ago.
Bank Commissioner AIbaugh says he
expects the next bank rep I to $
a falling off in deposits because this is
the season of the year when people
take money out of the banks and put
| it into inves tments and there is nc
great amount going into the banks OF
deposit. But a good wheat crop this
summer will probably make the depos-
its next fall jump forward again.

Cripple Creek, Colo, June g.
Seventeen miners were instantly killed
and eight or ten others badly injured
by an explosion which occurred at
2:26 o'clock this morning at the In
dependence station of the Florence &
Cripple Creek railroad. The cause of
the explosion has not been ascertained
but apparently it was the result of d
dastardly plot against the nonunion
miners on the night shift at the
Shurtlof. Findlay and Last Dollar
mines, who had just finished work
and we're about to return to their
homes. These men had no warning
whatever of their impending fate.
The explosion occurred beneath the
platform on which they were stand
ing hurting many of them high in the
air. destroying the adjoining depot
and rending a great hole in the earth
It is believed a large quantity of dyna-
mite had been laid under the platform
and that it was set off by means of
electricity or by the concussion
caused by the approaching train.
The train had not arrived at the
Independence depot, but was within
a short distance of it when the explC-
sion occurred. About As or so miners
from the Shurtloff, FIndlay and Last
Dollar mines had gathered al the
depot platform, and they were blown
into the air in every direction. One
mans body, cut in two, was found
100 yards from the scene of the ex-
plosion. Seven bodies are laid out to-
gether, and the remnants of others
are being secured as fast as possible.
On account of the terrible nature of
their wounds. identification is diff
cult.
