The leaders OF the republican party,
the office holders within the party
and all those who subsist by reason
of party patronage, do not act wisely
when they fail to demonstrate against
the brazen effrontery of the mayor
and city council, not only in the mat
ter of extravagances but also on ac-
count of their arbitrary conduct in
combating public improvements.
Here in the matter Of street paving
for Bessemer, for instance, is where
the leaders could do some good if
they would. The action Of the mayor
and aldermen is losing votes to the
party every day because of their
stubborn. unres sonable and outrage
GUS conduct in regard to this matter,
and yet never a word of objection is
made by the political leaders and NO
effort to induce the city administra-
tion to change its policy of resistance
and do Justice to Bessemer.
1t is to be hoped that this hint will
be followed up and that some good
may result from it.
A burning question among the local
politicians on both sides is, who shall
be the Pueblo delegates to attend the
respective national conventions at
Chicago and St. Louis? There is some
honor attached to such position and
plenty of our political diplomats will
be willing to make the sacrifice. 1t is
limited that Simon Guggenheim. who
has aspirations to go as delegate to
the Chicago convention, will ask to
be named from Pueblo, but IS his
home is in Denver there is . strong
element at work here to head off such
movement. Bro W. ]. jackson of

the time to spare to attend the demo

In speaking of the prospects for

Hobson said that they never we're

his opinion they should leave il as 1t
Is. The country is prosperous now
and wool is bringing good prices and
there would seem to be no benefit re-
suit from a change In the tariff on
wool. He compared this with that of
free wool during Cleveland's admins
tration and said that some of the wool
growers were clamoring for free wool
and when they got II the manufactur-
ers a to shut down from causes re-
sulting directly from the tariff reform

his product. Mr.. Hobson received a
telephone message Saturday from a
buyer who is operating for a large
Boston house, along the line Of TIE
Great Northern. and this buyer said
that he had been doing well contract
ing for wool until he was stopped by
a telegram from his house in Boston
telling him not to contract for any
more wool as there was talk Of "tink-
ering" with the tariff, and they would
not take the risk The prices for wool
will be as good, IL not better, next
year, as they were this in Fergus
county. II the same conditions prevail,
in Mr.. Hobson's opinion.

The citizens of Lewistown have al.
ways contributed literally to the fire
company whenever they were asked
to do so, but this year the boys had
a definite object In view and they
made unusual efforts to make thu
ball a grand success. The plan was
to raise enough money to furnish the
quarters in the new city hall, which
have been allotted to the fire depart.
ment. A carpet had to be bought and
numerous other pieces Of furniture
and the members of the company
thought it was no more than right
that the people whose buildings they
protect from fire should help to meet
these expenses. The credit for the
succe Of the ball is due, in a great
measure, to the efforts Of Fire Mar.

floor filled with dancers, but the
chairs were all occupied by those who

GAMBLING is STOPPED.
Sheriff Of Park County Sends Out the
Ediet That Camhlers 4 eave Tovun-

Sheriff OF Park County Sends Out the
Edict That Gamblers Leave Town.
The edict has gone forth that gamb-
ling must cease in Park county, and
almost without exception all places
where it was possible to bet on the
red, as the saying goes, closed volun-
tarily during the week, says the Liv.
ingston Post. II Is safe to say that
il a greenhorn were to seek out q
roulette wheel today he would have
a pretty big job on his hands, though
| all the gambling machinery so lately
in use in Livingston is still within
the confines Of the city.
The motive for this sudden quiet
ude in the gambling fraternity, for
this cashing in and withdrawal OF
checks and chips, may be found In
a notice that emanated from the sher
ifs Office Monday, to the effect that
IL the proprietors of places where the
unconcerned exchange of money was
allowed did not shut down tight, pros
%ecution would follow within a very
few days. Unhesitatlngly, every place
shut down, and the machinery so deal
to those who have had a sudden
"hunch" was removed to the cellar
or the vault.
When the legislature meets in Jan
uary not a wheel will be turning in
/: any part of Park county, and 1t Is
| very probable. to judge from reports
| elsewhere, that a simila, condition Of
affairs will exist throughout Montana
Heretofore gambling has been in pro
gress in every part of the county: to
day there is none, and the sudder
post-election activity in the sherins
Office is responsible. In years goni
10y gambling has ceased altogether, a.
now, for a few months at a time. only
70 again resume at a more propitioa'
time under the same old favorable
! conditions. The present edict. how
ever, bids the gambling fraternity t.
seek other fields. and it Is quite pos
sible that If the law is fully compiled
with, it will be a thing OF the pas
in this city and county.
