After considerable talk Attorney
Bagley insisted that the prison board
was not looking for trouble but it
proposed to see that its orders we're
4 inforced. Ackley had been regularly
appointed warden of the prison and
the board intended to place him in
charge.s
After considerable talk, during
which Warden Perrine positively re-
fused to yield the keys or property
of the prison, it was mutually agreed |
that the attorney general and secre-
tary of state should apply to the
supreme court for writ of mandate
compelling Warden Perrine to sur
render possession of the institution.
Should Justice Stockslager, who left
the city for the east on the afternoon
train, be induced to return the hear
ing will be held this morning.
Otherwise it is probable that the mat
ter will lie in allegiance for time.
Warden Perrines counsel has sug-
gested to Attorney General Bagley
that the question might be argued be-
fore Judge Stewart, In the event
that quorum Of the supreme court
cannot be secured.
Dan w. Ackley was appointed as
guard at the prison during the adj
ministration of Governor Hunt. He
was retained in office by Warden Per-
rine and appointed captain of the
yard in May, 1903. He has proved
very efficient officer.
II have never had the slightest
fault to find with Ackley's conduct
or work, - said Warden Perrine. 81

Others in position to judge of Ack-
ley's ability spoke of him in high |
terms. He was guard at the prison
under Warden Campbell and had also
served prior to that at the peniten
tiary. His record is first class.

Republican Candidate for Legislature
Favorable to Important Legislation.
During his first term as member OF
the lower house of the Montana legis-
lature, Chauncey G. Bever, republican
candidate for reelection as member
OF that body, voted for every import-
ant bill favorable to the interests OF
the laboring classes His record in
that respect is exceedingly favorable
to that element OF the voters and the
effort making to discredit the candi-
date among the laboring men is bound
to fall fiat, if pains are taken by the
voters to call tor tAe record OF The
house journal.
Mr.. Bever has even gone further to
show his loyalty to certain proposed
Legislation, vital not only to the labor
ing classes, but to all voters who de-
sire legislation for the people and
taxpayers instead OF leg1slation.solely
for certain corporations. M
The candidate on the republican
ticket for the legislature wass
largely instrumental IN framing and
adopting certain planks in the plat
ton and upon which the party is now
making the campaign in the county.
Mr.. Bever appeared before the plat
form committee OF the convention anu
asked that the following be adopted:
I'VE pledge the nominees OF this
! convention to the support OF such
legislation as will give to the state OF
Montana railroad commission, with
/ power to protect the citizens OF this
state against the unfair and unjust
practices now imposed upon the peo-
| PIE by the railroad corporations doing
business within its borders.
1--WE are heartily in favor OF and
pledge the nominees OF this conven
/ ton to work for and support legisla-
tion in the state of Montana which
will establish and maintain just
and equitable fellow-servant law, and
| in this behalf we commend to the
lawmakers of this state the fellow
servant laws heretofore enacted and
1 now in force in the states OF Iowa and
| Texas
I'VE hereby pledge the support OF
the nominees of this convention tc
any and all measures looking toward
the establishment of the initiative
\ and referendum in this state.

of the eight-hour law enacted by thi
Eighth legislative assembly OF Mon
tana."

NAMES SUGGESTED TO iNvEsTI-
GATE NORTH SEA INCIDENT.
ENGLAND FAyoRs DEWEY
Russia Will Choose French Admiral
and sittings Will Be Held
in Paris.

London, Nov 2.-The negotiations
between the British and Russian gov
ernments in regard to the interna-
tional commission, which is to inves-
togate the North sea incident, are pro-
crossing apparently to the satisfac-
ton of both sides. The foreign office
stated to the Associated Press this
evening that nothing had been def
ntiely settled regarding the personnel,
date or place. The foreign office ad-
ded that invitations will be sent to
several powers to send representa-
tives, but to which powers and what
representatives is as yet undecided.
So far as yet decided Admiral Sir
Cyprian Bridge will sit only at the
board of trade inquiry at Hull
The foreign office further stated
that it knows of no hitch in the pro-
ceedings.
It is now regarded as almost GER
| tain that the commission will sit in
Paris and be composed OF five navaf
| offic GERS, one Russian and one British,
each power to choose another member
and the four to select fifth. Russia

(, koff and Great Britain Admiral Sir
Cyprian Bridge, although the latter Sc
lection is not absolutely settled
Great Britain expressed her intention
of asking that United States naval
officer sit on the commission, where;
upon Russia announced that she
would select a French officer. There
is a strong intimation that Great Brit
ain will invite Admiral Dewey to be
one of the commission. Ofticers OF
such character as those mentioneds
insure the acceptance of the findings
of the commission by both countries
and the world.
The Associated Press understands
that at the audience which Ambassa-
4 dor Hardinge had with Emperor Mich
.olas at Tsarerko-Selo October 80, and
the audience which King Edward
granted to Ambassador BenkendOrH
yesterday, both sovereigns expressed
satisfaction at the prospect OF a Fsatis-
factory settlement of the dispute.
At the Russian embassy tonight the
Associated Press was informed that
there had been no further develop
ments. Both countries we're elaborat-
ing the details of the commission, but
there was.no hitch in the proceedings.

ity upon it. For that reason 1t haG
invited fusion with the populists ana
the labor party. The past had shroWn
how dear fusion was and the future
would only emphasize the cost At the
Helena conventions had been men
who represented the Amalgamated
company and the United Copper com
pany and all had worked for the same
purpose and all had been eager to
bring about the same end This ac-
complished, they were now going
about the state and keeping up a pre-
tended fight against each other; still
all advised the people to support the
same ticket, that of the democrats.
Every one of the great corporations
whose power the people had learned
to know and fear was working for the
success of the democratic ticket.
Clark, HeinZe and the Amalgamated
were working for the head of the
ticket and the other candidates upon
it, while the newspapers owned and
controlled by them we're supporting
the same ticket. The question now
to be decided was whether the cor
porations, as represented by the dem
ocratic ticket, were to govern or
whether the people themselves were
to be their own governors.
False Pretense Exposed.
Mr.. Lindsay had something to say
about the claims of Governor Toole
concerning the credit due him and
his party for raising the railroad as
sessments. His opponent was telling
the people that because of the in
creased valuation placed upon the
railroads their own taxes had been
lowered and kept down, This was
manifestly not SO. Not a single reduc-
ton in the taxes demanded OF the peo-
pie had followed the increased assess
ment of the. railroads. This was
shown by the fact that the levy for
state purpose was constantly kept up
! to the constitutional limit and in addi-
| ton special taxes had been imposed
to keep up special offices created.
In proof of this. Mr.. Lindsay called
attention to the Office of game warden
.of the state. A special tax had been
levied to pay the increased cost re
sulting from the establishment of thai
Office, in spite of the fact that it was
lin violation OF the constitution. Tht
different counties had been orderet
Ito include the special tax in their reg
