SOCIALIST JUDGE SLANDERED

Red Lodge, Mont, Nov, 26, 1906.
Editor of the Montana News
Would you permit me once more to
reply to another dirty capitalists
tool S attack on me, as police judge,
in last week Carbon County Repub.
licani Who wrote the dirty lie, / do
not know but F. j. Johns had it print
ed. II was probably dictated by his
boss. As TO the article | will repro
duce it and show the public the diff
ference between the truth and lie.
"In a hearing given Hans Miller
last Friday afternoon Police Magis-
trate Lucas fined the accused S25 and
costs.
Miller was charged with the opera
tion of gambling game in violation
Of city ordinance. The prosecution
was conducted by City Clerk and At.
torney Geo. w. Burke, the defense be-
ing represented by w. +. Meyer. No
jury was subpoenaed, and the vindica-
tion of the majesty of the law and the
aforesaid city ordinance rested solely
with is honor, Judge Lucas.
Three witnesses were introduced
by the prosecution; two of them vague.
ly surmised that there may have been
gambling, while the third entirely re.
futed the allegations and established
an excellent case for the defendant
The proprietor of the room where the
offense is alleged to have been com
mitted testified that his room is only
used for the storage of stock, that he
carried the keys thereto, and that he
knew nothing whatever of the viola
tion of the ordinance as charged by
the authorities.
With the prevalence of such eondi
tions an appeal was, of course, promp
ly taken TO the district court, and tn,
question will now be adiudicated by
Judge Henry"
This clipping appeared in the Car
bon County Republican of Nov. 90
1906. As Ia Hans Miller fined 49,
and costs for running a gambling gam,
that is true. But as TO a jury not be
ing subpocnacd, the law is plain on
the matter of a jury not being allowed
before a police court so the said jury
was not allowed in this case
AS to the three witnesses. they wer,
sworn and two of the said witnesses
Montana news. [volume] (Lewistown, Mont.) 1904-191?, 1906-12-06

testified that they bought dollar s
worth Of chips of Hans Miller and
payed stud-poker with them until they
lost them. Those two witnesses names
are respectively Rely Lay and Geo.
Anderson, both reliable citizens.
Also the pen pusher speaks of the
witnesses not knowing anything about
a game being run in said saloon Of
Minass 4 Dovan, that they just sur
missed that there was game being run
there, which is falsehood in the
broadest sense. The third witness was
one Axtell Lingreen. He entirely re-
futed the allegations This Axtell
Lingreen is the man the two other
witnesses testified played in the game
with them and pushed the rake-off in
the hole, supposed to be the per cent
age for the house. The said witness
seemed to have lost his memory at
that particular time. In other words
he seemed to this court to be an un.
willing witness. The pencil scribe says
the defense established an excellent
case for the defendant.
Now, as a matter of fact the gentle.
men with the big knowledge of the
said trial was not there nor any of his
representatives, except his boss.
As long as a man has no more sense
of honor than to abuse another fellow
man on behalf of some political capi-
talist shyster in order to hold his job,
you cannot expect anything honorable
or noble from such character.
/ am very sorry to have to appear
in print like this, but as the capitalist
grafters have put on their war paint
so j also will paint up little. We
may expect TO have such capitalist
tools ~ the pen pusher of the so
called republican paper of Carbon
county. He is a full type of all the
job holders Of the capitalist class.
would rather beg from door to door
than be dirty tool for some capital
list boss or II political shyster. Those
political bosses Of Carbon county know
we are on their trail. so it is no won
der thsv have their tools at work
slandcriug and lying.
Their schemes won't work. Trtl
will pr vail.

SENT WIRELESS
TO PUGET SOUND
THE SAN DIEGO STATION ACCOM-
PLISHES FEAT UNPRECEDENT
ED on PACIFIC COAST.

SAN DIEGO. December i--Messages
were exchanged yesterday by the gov
eminent wireless station at Point Lo-
ma with the government wireless sta
ton at Puget Sound, 1900 miles away
This is the longest distance any Wire
less station on the coast has ever been
able to talk and rivals easily the long
est distances that the stations on the
eastern seaboard have been able to
bridge with their messages to trans
Atlantic liners.
The latest achievements by these
stations has been to keep liner per-
petually in touch with the world on
her way across the Atlantic, and
even this has been accomplished but
recently. 1t is not an everyday
achievement. either, so that the rec
ord of the local and Puget Sound sta
tons while easily distancing every
thing that has ever been done on the
coast ranks with the best that has
been done i'm the east by the stations
hat are continually making efforts to
increase their range and make their
instruments the most perfect in use
and the most valuable.
| The station at Puget ''ound Is one
of rather recent construction, al
though the San Diego station itself
has not been running for many months
There are now seven government wire
less stations on the coast two of which
are just nearing completion.
In the course of the conversations
during the day the wireless was in
formed from Mare Island that the Pa
ciic squadron would sail for the soutf
for target practice Wednesday OF
| Thursday Of this week. On its way
south it is supposed that it will stoT
at Santa Barbara for a short time ant
will then come to San Diego for stoT
of about a week.
From San Diego the squadron vii
go to Magdalena for target practice
which will occupy perhaps two o
maybe three weeks. The return to Sal
Diego will then be made, and tn
greater part of the remainder of tn
winter it IS thought, will be spent II
San Diego. The members of the flee
are Charleston, Chicago, yorktown
Paul Jones and Preble They probabl
will be joined later by the Boston,

DRIVEN OUT BY
THE JAPANESE
AMERICAN PATENTS STOLEN AND
THEN ORIENTAL MARKETS ARE
CAPTURED.

WATERBURY, Comm, November
27.-In an interview today, President
Grover of the Colt Patent Firearms
Company of Hartford, declared that
his concern had lost practically all its
market in the Far East to the Japan
csc, who had stolen the company's pa
tents and were making all manner or
American arms for both Government
and private use
Grover added: when the Colt Com
pany found it's market in the East dis
appearing, it secured the services Of an
English army officer to investigate. We
found in Southern China a Japanese
factory in full operation, turning out
gatling guns, Colt automatics and other
armament, great and small. The Chi
nese Government apparently fostered
the enterprise and the Colt Company
got nothing"

TO TELL
OF FLEETS COMING
NAVAL STATION APPARATUS
LITTLE HEARD OF NOW, BUT
BIG ASSET IN TIME OF NEED.

The wireless apparatus at the United
States naval station here has little to
call it into use at present, although it
is in commission and ready at all times
to receive intelligence from ships of the
United States or any other navy that
may carry wireless apparatus The
apparatus at the Honolulu naval sta
ton has communicated with a vessel as
far out as $50 miles nd is serviceable
at any time for so miles, a notice to
mariners all over the world announcing
this fact.
The local naval people look forward
to the time when these islands will be
in wireless communication with the
mainland states, but this is some little
distance in the future.
In the event of the approach of a
fleet of American vessels the naval sta
ton would be the first to know of their
coming.
There could be a pretty play of In
struments i'm the event of Japanese and
American vessels simultaneously near
ing these islands, supposing both fleets
were provided with instruments. The
American fleet sending a message to
the local station could easily have that
message intercepted by the apparatus
on the boats of the other fleet, so warm
ing them.
1--WE have the apparatus" said Lieu
tenant Cushman this morning, at the
naval station, land all mariners are
aware of the fact and they can make
use of it if they desire"

an attempt was made recently t.

THE SOUTHERN MARYLAND Ma
TIONAL BANK.

Elsewhere in our columns will be
found the Charter of the Southern
MARYLAND National Bank of La Plata
the Southern Maryland Savings Bank
converted. There was no need of a
change of the Bank in this town from
State Bank, as the former was thriy-
ing and making money for its stock
holders and amply supplying the needs
of bank in the County, but the
change was made to satisfy the wishes
of popular demand. The management
of the Bank is not a class to yield to
the demands of any absurdity, but as
| National Banks seem to be the fad
throughout the nation, it has acceded
to clamor and had the conversion.
| Now it is up to the people to literally
support the new venture that our
lCounty may keep pace with progress
and show their appreciation of the
limited quantity of zeal, enterprise and
public spiritedness that exists among
us. We are informed that savings
department will be continued to be
attached to the Bank to encourage lit
tie ones and others of small means to
save their small earnings for 'rainy
day" and to encourage them that in
the saving of pennies the foundation
for prosperity and wealth is to be
found and pecuniary success is surely
attained The Southern MARYLAND
National Bank is purely local enter
Iprise the present management start
ed it almost single-handed and alone ;
as a success it has the endorsement of
the National Government, and should
receive the stamp of approval of the
people of this County as one more step
to the summit of advancement that our
