stock farm in Montana he spent sl,Ooo, 900 a year. On this ranch-one of the most beautiful in the world-he raised the famous racers Ogden, Hamburg and Tammany. Giving away fine horses was one of his fads. Should friend take a fancy to a horse, Daly would say: Take him he is yours"
 Clark" said to an old Montana mi ner. must be a bright man to have come out here with nothing and cleaned up S100, GOO 000."
 Nothing so very bright about it." an- swered my friend. He was here; it was here; they got together. Somebody had to do it."
 Do you know the senator?' asked.
 Know him? We'll, I guess yes. banned in the same placer diggings with him down here in the Jeff Davis Gulch, close to Dillon. He was born in Pennsyl- vania and teached school in Missouri This made him close listed l guess. lie comes out to Colorado and then up here to Montany in '6S He held on to the first thousand he got and went down to Salt Lake and bought stuff, and freight ed in and sold 1t to the boys. Flour got scarce and he sold 1t for $1.50 pound. Then he got little log stor; then bank: then he got lot of copper claims; and now. If 1t hadn't been for Marcus Da- ly. he'd have the whole d-d country.
 "But didn't you nave Just ds BVou chance as he did?" I asked
 sure: but I arguyed what's theuse of hayin' it unless you git somethin' out of It? Like the most of the boys l blowed mine in for booze and chips. Still l ain't got no kick comin'. Montany's been pretty square with me. I've had a good time-bettern' Clark, I expect
 Clark made use of his chance. He was in the richest mining camp in the world. As can be done in many other places today-even In Butte-for small amounts he got interest In claims. He went to Columbia university and studied metallurgy. He examined mines for him self he did his own assayfng Others could have done what Clark did; but Clark did 1t.
 Clark Is one rich man who knows what he is worth. He pays strict attention to every detail of his buisness. He is one of the busiest men in America. He owns many mines outside of Butte. Of the United Verde, at Jerome Ari, the rich est of copper mines he is the sole owner. He has sugar beet farms In California, coffee plantations in Mexico lumber camps. coal mines, stock ranches, busi- ness property, and just recently has built railroad from Salt Lake City to Los Angeles Aside from this he has found time to study French and German and to collect fine paintings
 Heinze Is a Wizard.
 HeInze is wizard. He is the brightest man Butte has produced. In the last few years he has made millions. He struck Butte at the age of twenty Tn S9 He was first an engineer in the Boston and Montana mine, controlled by Lewis sohn Bros, of New York It Is said that they turned Heinze off. He organ ized a company to smelt ores for inde- pendent mines He made money out Of this. Then he filed claims right In the midst of the big working mines. A law of Montana allows the one who owns the apex of vein to have the ore wherever 1t may drift. Heinze knew the ground He got a valuable apex and brought suit for property worked by others. He won This brought on between Helnze and the Amalgamated the great fight which is not yet finished
 But Butte without rivals in 1t would not be Butte. The greatest feud that ever existed there was between Daly and Clark. Although they were brothers in-law 1t lasted until Daly's death,
 This feud on account of which Daily and Clark squandered millions, began they say, over horse race. In one race Dalys horse beat Clark's. Clark ran in racer and skinned Daly. Then war was on When Daly had spent great deal on his Anaconda shelter, Clark cornered the right on all the water near by Daly had to pay him bonus of over $100,000.
 This was the dearest $100,00o that Clark ever made In S7 Clark ran for con- gress against Thomas Carter. Clark thought that Daly would support him. They were both democrats. This would | mean his election But early on the morning of the election Daily went to his foreman and to his men in the mines and to the boys in Dublin Gulch, and said: By, your ould frind Marcus wants
