New YORK, Jan. 2, 1905.
Dear Comrade: You will OBJ
serve that have changed my ad-
dress. Have been in New York
about two weeks and am located at
the above address working for my
brother.
Well, comrade, this is great
town-like great big bee hive with
all the bees working double shift
and all the time excited as if they
we're going to swarm. | guess
there is difference, too, for l be-
lieve the drones get the best of the
honey here. Puts one more in mind
of an ant hill when you kick it and
see the ants rush out and scurry
around hither and thither, not one
of them apparently knowing where
it is going.
To a person from the quiet
country they seem like lot of crazy
people, but it will not do to tell
them SO or you are likely to land in
the asylum, for they are in the ma
jority and the average New Yorker
is very touchy on the point of his
sanity. He thinks that he is the
sanest person on the face of the
earth, and it is the fellow who can
content himself a hundred miles
away from New York who has gone
plumb mad.
OF course we all know it, and yet
we don't seem to fully realize what
tremendous power the press is in
molding the minds of the people
until we get in big city. The city
man or woman cannot live without
the daily paper. You get into an
elevated train and every passenger
has a paper in front of him, most of
them reading of the trial of Nan
Patterson. You look through the
windows of a rapidly passing train
and all you see is a streak of white.
1t is very evident that we Socialists
will never be able to hold our own
in the big cities until we have our
daily papers.

to become members, for Socialism
does MT only improve and elevate the
character of man, but women also.
Let every Socialist try to agitate and
educate his fellow worker and wage
Garner along the lines of Socialism
and not waste much time with the
little capitalist because he will soon
be squeezed out of business by the
big capitalist; then they will have
plenty of time to study Socialism.
There are lots of wage slaves that
will readily become Socialists if they
can be induced to read and find out
what its principles are. The most
effective way is to get organized
wherever eight or ten or a dozen
can get together and then go cunning
with some Socialist literature, and
along with it scatter copies of the
Montana News which will show what
the Socialists are doing all over the
state. | think each local in the state
ought to make a special effort to in
crease the circulation of the News
for in future campaigns the Social
lists will need the help of it more
than they have in the past. Get
busy! Get your fellow wage slave
to read and investigate, and he will
make himself Socialist. There is
going to be something doing in the
political arena during the next twelve
months, not only In the United
States but in every nation that is
called civilized. The capitalists Sc
lect the candidates for Offices and
the wage slaves elect them. Why
not elect our own candidates? Work
ingmen you have got to emancipate
yourselves from wage slavery, and
you can do it by a thorough orga-
nization of your class.

Nothing was doing Friday and
Saturday, as most all of the capital
ist hirelings with both pockets
stuffed with free railroad transport
alton, which represents their treason
to the people of the state and their
fidelity to the corporations, took a
spin home and a rest after their
hard weeks work.
On Monday the 9th the senate
got the bulge on the house in the
matter of having all of its commit
tees appointed, and for the first
time bills were introduced. Up to
this time q bills have been intro
duced in the house.
Speaker Hedges named three
standing committees Immediately
on the opening of the house session.
That on labor is composed of Ross
of Missoula, Williams of Park, Met
calf of Granite, Wilson of Cascade,
Carriher of Deer Lodge, Hays of
Cascade, Wyman of Silver Bow,
Meunier of Silver Bow and Harring-
ton of Deer Lodge.
The only bill introduced last week
that might be criticised, was one in
troduced by Sander, a labor fusion
representative, to wipe out the
license proposition on business men,
excepting the saloon, tin horn,"
peddler and prostitute element. Why
labor representative is interested
in introducing a bill of interest to
the little business men, and how this
will help the worker any, is rather
hard to understand. But the work
ing jackass is the easiest thing on
earth any way. Elects men who
always go to the law making body
of the country to pass bills in the
interest of class that exploits him.
On Tuesday noon the 10th, the
first ballot on United States senator
was taken, Tom Carter receiving 20,
Lee Mantle 10. The democrat vote
stood fnr ~ y ra.I ,.L,I.
the fusion vote stood IS for Mac
Ginnis.
Tired out with their hard days
labor, they adjourn to meet the next
day when they will take another vote
for United states Senator.
Many of the peanut politicians
from over the state are here doing
all they can for the fellow that they
desire to have Cmis) represent them
at Washington. Among them is the
unclassified bird" of Fergus-S. S.
Hobson-who won the $50, 900 rep
utation in the state, the time he
voted for, and the time that w. A.
Clark bought his seat in the United
States senate. Suggestions from
men p of this sort are not amiss
in old party politics and especially
so at this critical time. 1t is said
that Tom Carter has skinned a mil
lion during his first trip to Washing
ton, and if reelected can probably
double that amount.
The farce comedy of demo-repub-
lican, labor taking reform advocates
will resume again today for about
20 minutes.
Montana news., 1905-01-11

Our report of legislative doings
last week was up to and including
the 3rd inst. On the 4th the cap
italist body met for about 20 min
utes and arranged for a cafe at the
capitol, which proves conclusively
the Socialist theory that material in
terests rule the world.
Speaker Hedges of Fergus, who
has not had one of those partisan
honest crying fits as yet, appointed
Lanstrum, Canoll and Sanden to
arrange the pie counter.
Representative Lanstrum intro
duced house bill No. I. II is an in
itiative and referendum measure.
Dempster followed with house
bill No. ?, also an initiative and ref
erendum measure.
1t appears that the labor { p rep
resentatives fell short here after all
their bawl on the above mentioned
Socialist law, and let the old party
ties as usual beat them to the bat.
Speaker Hedges appointed his
first standing committee by naming
as committee on per diem and mil
cage, Potter, Stevens, English,
Wood and Sander.
The speaker was authorized to en-
gage an assistant janitor.
The house then adjourned unril
p. m. Thursday.
On Thursday afternoon Speaker
Hedges appointed the following
committees:
Rules-Everett of Choteau, Null
roney of Missoula, Blake of Deer
Lodge and Johnston of Yellowstone.
Privileges and elections-Lieper
of Dawson, Murray of Cascade,
Mulroney of Missoula, Everett of
Chouteau, Blake of Deer Lodge,
Teskey of Jefferson, Lanina of Sill
yer Bow, Starr of Lewis and Clarke
and Reel of Madison.
Then came the introduction of
many notices announcing that GER
tain bills would be introduced at the
proper time. That is, as soon as
they can lengthen their day to some
thing over 20 minutes.
The senate decided to change the
rule for the appointment of commit
tees, so that the committee of FISH
and game protection shall consist of
five instead of three members. The
senate adjourned after all this work,
done in one day by 20 frail men, to
meet the next day at IL a. m. You
will notice it is not case of an 8
hour day but a 30 minute or shorter
day at SO per.
This resolution was offered by
Senator Waite of Fergus, who
bought his seat in the senate for S.

it appears that his idea to change
the commission from three to five is

it is the intention of Mr.. MacRae to

1t is known that several parties who

that a trolley line will be run through

SHOT BY
Man Slot at Duck and n Shot Struck
MI. Dick Register.

While out duck hunting yesterday
afternoon. Mr.. J. f. Smith accidently
shot Mr.. Dick Register but fortunately
only one shot struck him and the
wound inflicted by that, although not
dangerous, is painful.
The two men We're hunting in one of
the rice fields near Wilmington and
each of them were in the small style
of boats used by duck hunters. After
reaching the rice field they separated
and did not meet any until after
Mr.. Register got shot. The two men
were quietly waiting in their boats for
the ducks to make their appearance
when Mr.. Smith saw twO ducks alight
by one of the bitches not a great dis
lance from his boat He slowly work
ed himself around in the direction of
the ducks and just as they rose he
fired and one duck dropped. Almost
instantly he heard MI. Register call
out that he had been shot. Mr.. Smith
was not aware of it, but Mr.. Register
was about 100 yards further down the
ditch when he fired. 1t is needless to
say that Mr.. Smith was badly frigh-
tened and it was a source of great re-
lief to him to see Mr.. Register sitting
up in his boat. He found that one of
the No. 6 shot had entered Mr.. Regis
ter's cheek and blood was gushing
from the wound. He took out his
knife and endeavored to extract the
shot but could not do so. The two
men then came to the city, and Mr..
Register went to see a physician.
