Ask Their Support.
''The farming capabilities of Mon
tana are a fact. They will be dis
covered sooner or later by a great
land hungry, home seeking popula-
ton. The paramount question before
the business men OF the state and
those who desire it's best and swiftest
development is, shall this information
be advertised and exploited to the
world, and the state rapidly settled,
or shall this great possible develop
ment be retarded? This question is
for the people of Montana to answer.
The National Irrigation association
is working for the development OF the
west, not of any particular locality,
not of any particular state; but OF
the west. Montana has vast agricul-
tural advantages. We are willing and
anxious to exploit these advantages
to eastern h~ome-seekers and settlers.

SHELTERS FOR COOKE.
Two Companies to Build Works Next
Year,

Livingston, Oct. 20.-R. G. Kerr OF
Cooke was in the city yesterday on his
return from Carbon county, where he
took his family for the winter. Mr..
Kerr says that a few days ago he
had a conversation with f. G. Byrne,
president Of the Rocky Mountain
Shelters company, the concern which
was said to contemplate putting
shelters in Cooke City last summer.
According to Mr.. Kerr the PROPOSE
ton has by no mean been aban-
doned, Mr.. Byrne stating that the ar
rangements are now complete and
that the smelters will be installed
early next spring. Should this be
true, Cooke will be well supplied, for
the Cooke City Shelters company, an
organization OF Seattle men, are al
ready taking active steps to put smell
tiers in Cooke next summer.
They have a gang OF men now
working on a ditch and will send in a
saw mill outfit at once. George b.
Allison, president Of the company, has
filed on 1000 inches OF the waters OF
Republic creek for water supply for
the smelters. 1t seems reasonably
certain that the latter company means
business and the Cooke miners feel
greatly encouraged. They confidently
believe that a railroad will not be far
behind the smelterS.

of Locomotive Firemen, who is want
ed on the charge of embezzlement. 1t

Walmer came to this city about eight
months ago, and has been secretary
of the local branch of the brotherhood
for nearly all that time. Walmer was
last seen in the city this morning
about 4 o'clock, and it is said that
he and a companion checked two
trunks to Havre on the early east
bound train. The sheriff's officec has
wired to all important points in the

BLIND MAN MAKES STATEMENT.
Denies Having Deserted Hayworth
Boy at Butte.
From Saturdays Daily.

From Saturdays Daily.
o. E. Bleiler is the name OF the
blind man who is charged by the
newspapers of Butte with having de-
serted a small boy at that place. Mr..
Bleiler, like the boy, is a resident OF
Billings, and is we'll known to many
persons in the city. The %aftiiction
affecting him is of but recent occur
renee. To The Gazette he made the
following statement:
81 did not desert the boy, as l am
charged with having done, and l did
not let him stand on the sidewalk
while l went into a saloon. l took
him inside with me, as he was acting
as my guide. He had occasion, to
leave the room and upon attempting
to return he lost his way and could
not find the place where l a He
was not lost, in the literal sense, for
he knew where the o was where
we were stopping. When l discovered
that he could not find the place
where he had left me I notified the
police, who promised to take care OF
him over night if he fell into their
hands.
"The next morning l called at the
police station and was confronted by
the state humane officer, who took
charge of the boy and left me without
a guide. Now, ii it was humane to
take him from me, would not it also
have been humane to have provided
me with another guide, as 1 can do
very little without one? Taking the
attitude assumed by Mr.. S~choenfield
it is very evident that he thinks a
blind man has little right to exist.
There was no complaint or objec.
ton on the mothers part when l pro-
posed to take the boy with me. l had

| existed as to what ] was to give the
boy. I was to be permitted to give
! him voluntarily what l regarded as
proper in the way of clothes, and any
statements made to the contrary are
false. The mother is able to support
him and it was an act of humanity on
her part to permit him to accompany
me, as I had no one to lead me and
only wanted him for a short time"

MILES COMING TO MONTANA.
General May Stump State for the
Democrats.

From Miles City comes the report
that General Nelson A. Miles, re-
tired lieutenant general OF the army,
and formerly stationed at Fort Keogh,
will probably make a stumping tour
of Montana in the interest of the dem
ocratic national ticket. Although not
yet definitely decided upon, it is said
that he may be looked for sometime
during the latter part OF the present
month.
The general is still "sOre" at the
administration, particularly President
Roosevelt, and should he decide to
make the campaign the subjects upon
which he is to talk will be the atti-
tude of the United States toward the
Philippines and of the administration
in regard to the establishment OF a
general staff to direct army affairs.
General Miles is well known in the
state and if he carries out his credited
intention will undoubtedly draw large
audiences. although little confidence
is felt in his ability to turn votes.
The people have come to regard him
as a scold, with a personal grievance,
and while they may be prompted by
curiosity to turn out and hear him, it
is admitted that his influence will
not be very strong.

RoUsING REPUBLICAN, RALLY.
County Candidates Address Large
Meeting at MusselsheII.

A ~ - A~e
the republicans held a big meeting at
Musselshell Crossing, which will be a
memorable one in the history of polit-
ical gatherings in hat bustling little
burg. The democratic spellbinders
had held a meeting here Tuesday
evening, and it was rumored that the
republican candidates would have
nothing to work on upon their arrival
But the voters came from far and
wide with their families to hear the
other side of the discussion and the
spacious hall was we'll filled, a much
larger audience being present than
greeted the opponents of democracy
a couple of evenings before.
w. C. Grant, committeeman for
Musselshell precinct, presided in a
most able name The hall was
beautifully decorated and the stage
was a veritable bower of ported plants
and flowers. The national colors
were becomingly draped above the
platform and the effect was very
pleasing. The Musselshell orchestra
furnished the music and made a de
cided hit with the Billings visitors.
For the number of instruments, the
orchestra is undoubtedly one OF the
best in the country.
After a few preliminary remarks,
Chairman Grant presented the Honor
able G. c. Bever, who was roundly ap-
plauded as he arose to speak. MI.
Bever confined himself entirely to
state and county politics, and more
particularly to those matters of es-
pecial interest to the people Of the
Musselshell country. He commented
at length upon the respective candi-
dates on the republican county ticket
and paid a tribute to each one, mod
estly excepting the head OF the ticket,
however.
Mr.. Bever's speech was exception
ally well received and at it's conclu-
sion he was accorded generous ap-
plause.
The chairman then introduced
Harry l.. Wilson, candidate for county
attorney, who delivered a stirring
half-hour address.
After briefly reviewing Mr.. Bever's
record in the last legislature, Mr..
Wilson dealt solely with national is
sues and commanded the closest at
tention throughout his address. He
injected a couple of stories in illus
trating certain points, and these
served to liven up his discourse to
the huge enjoyment of the audience.
He was frequently interrupted by ap-
plause and had his hearers with him
from the start.
At the conclusion of Mr.. Wilson's
address the chairs were showed to
the sides of the hall and the orches-
ira struck up a lively waltz. From
then until the wee small hours the
light fantastic was tripped in a hilar-
| ious manner by everyone who ever
possessed the slightest inclination to
indulge in this innocent pastfme.
The candidates who spoke, as well
/ as Warren Evans, Mrs. Strang and
Frank Summers, were very much in
evidence throughout the evening and
| enjoyed the social side of the Mussel-
SHE'LL campaign to the limit.
A banquet followed the dance.
The meeting was a decided success
every way and did much for the repub,
lican ticket in that locality. A SINH
lar one will be held at Roundup this,
Friday, evening.
