Meeting OF the Republican Judi.
cial Committee of the goth
Judicial Circuit.

Pursuant to a call the Judicial
Committee Of the Republican party
of the 59th Judicial Circuit, met At
Osoeola, Mo-, June ISth, 1904, to
discuss the necessity of calling a con
vention for the nomination Of a can
didate for Judge of the Circuit
Court in said district.
And whereas it appears that the
members Of the bar, both Demo-
Gratis and Republicans in the various
counties in the district have reques-
ted w. w. Graves present eneum-
bent to permit himself to be nomi-
mated for another term thereof,
and that the Republican lawyers
are in favor of the reelection Of
Judge w. w. Graves, Democratic
candidate, committee have deemed
it proper to adjourn this meeting
without a call for convention at this
time, and to call another meeting
when more extensive information,
discussion and wish of the Republi-
cans in SAID district may be more
fully obtained.
Therefore, the call is hereby
made for that meeting at II o clock
a. m. IN the city of Clinton. Mo-.
at the Burrell Hotel, thereof, for
Monday the Ist day of August 1904
at which time all the Republican
lawyers of the district as well as all
other Republicans interested are in
vited to be present, and advise and
consult as to propriety of calling
convention, and probability of secur-
ing a candidate, or endorsing Judge
Graves, or what is best to be done,
The Republican newspapers oil
the district are requested to publish
this call continuously until said
meeting. Done by order of the
committee.

Washington Letter.

Speaker Cannon has returned to
this city from his arduous labors in
Illinois, and has given the President
a thrilling account OF his wonderful
experiences in that live aud breezy
state. He says that owing to has
astute management in Springfield
he is now a ''subject for universal
e%xecration." He claims to have
jumped upon his Vice Presidential
boom and hattened il ont. Many
attempts were made to stampede
the convention after the old fashion,
ed methods, and Mr.. Cannon had to
suppress horns and drums; all sorts
of wild gyrations, banners, notices
and bowling deryishes, before the
delegates sober down and get to
W o rk. "And now" he says,
"there is not a man in Illinois who
will vote for me-" The President
was highly amused at this recital.
He knows speaker Cannon, and the
romantic way he has Of telling OF
his experiences. But Chicago is
the place to determine the name Of
the man who is to be the
next vice president and there
are many who believe Mr.. Cannon
| will be nominated.
Whatever discomfort was caused
among negro voters by the action or
inaction Of the President or Senate
IN the Crum case, seems certain to
be offset by the generous number OF
negroes admitted 10 the Chicago
convention mostly from the South.
] Not less than IS have already been
elected. including II from Georgia,
70 from Mississippi, and a large
majority Of the members from South
Carolina and Alabama. The
"Lily White" faction will contest,
but il will be sent to the real and
submerged in the enthusiasm which
the name of Roosevelt eyokes.
Strange that as soon as Attorney
Gen. Knox, who has been looking
after the trusts. was made a Sena-
tor from Pennsylvania, and Mr..
Garfield Of the Department of Conn
meree and Labor was about to hand
to the President his report on the
beef trust, the price should sudden
ly advance five cents a pound. Ex-
aelty why the COW decided to jump
over the moon at this juneture is far
from clear. One of the wise gov
eminent officials says cattle cost
more because they are scarce. But
the census returns and the estimates
Of the Dept Of Agriculture show
that there are as many cattle in the
land now As At any other time. and
the freight rates charged tor trans.

A STATES TRIBUTE.
Memorial Tablet to Dead Volunteers
Formally Dedicated.

Memorial Tablet to Dead Volunteers
Formally Dedicated.
At Helena last Tuesday was for
mally dedicated the memorial tablet
which grateful state has erected to
the memory of the men who lost their
lives in response to the country's call
for volunteers when a foreign foe
threatened it. The tablet occupies a
prominent position in the capitol and
its erection was ordered by joint
resolution Of the Sixth legislative ses-
sion. It is of bronze after a design
provided by J. H. Kent, of Helena, and
bears the names Of SO men of the
First Montana who were killed in the
Philippines or died subsequently from
injuries received while in the SER
vice.
About a hundred of the survivors
of the regiment were present at the
ceremonies incident to the dedication
and represented various parts of the
state. The annual reunion of the
Spanish-American War veterans was
in progress, which accounted for the
large number that were there. The
formal exercises were opened by Cap
tain William L. Hill, late member OF
the regiment, who made a short ad-
dress in which he paid soldiers tri-
butte to the memory of the comrades
gone before and commented on the
significance Of the occasion. At the
conclusion of his remarks he intro
duced Governor oJseph K. Toole, who
made the formal dedicatory address.
When the governor finished his
speech he stepped before the tablet
and pulled a cord which released the
flags and displayed the memorial At
its appearance the crowd broke into
cheers.

of the Yellowstone valley will be
made at the station of the Northern
Pacific The petition of the CONNER
cial committee for permission to erect
kiosk at the depot has been denied
by the city council.
The matter was taken up by that
body at an adjourned regular meet
ing last evening. While it was con-
ceded that such an exhibit was desir-
able and would probably be produc-
tive OF good results, the aldermen
deemed it advisable to deny the re-
quest. Their reason for doing so
was based upon the companys re-
peated promises to build new sta
tion, and it was regarded as i'll ad-
vised to permit the construction OF
any further buildings On the ground,
even of the ornamental sort proposed
by the petitioners. While the rail-
road people may have forgotten their
promises, the council has not, and in
tends to keep them constantly in
mind of them.
A resolution was adopted for the
creation Of special Improvement
district No. 8, to be composed Of
blocks 1872, 1913 and 1913. Tuesday
evening, October IL, was set as the
date and time for hearing protests
from the property owners interested.

The people residing in the western
part of town and CONTIGUOUS to the
Northern Pacific yards have griev-
ance and have invoked the council for
redress. About 40 of them united in
a petition requesting that honorable
body to intercede in their behalf with
the railroad people. They complain
that it occurs with annoying fre-
quency that the man In charge of the
railroad scales is absent when cars
are backed upon it for weighing At
such times the engineers Of the switch
engines make practice Of sounding
their whistles and creating deafen-
ing and maddening noise. The en-
gineers of departing freight trains arc
also complained Of for unnecessary
and nerve racking whistling. In the,
opinion of the petitioners, less
whistnng by the last complained OF
would answer all purposes, while the
installation of an electric device to
summon the weighmaster would do
away with the nuisance at the scales
instructions were given the clerk to
take the matter UP with Superintend-
ent Boyle and ask him to order relief
