The fact that working class was
able to defeat a vicious franchise
deal at Livingston has caused the
papers of that town to make many
and various comments. The En-
terprise says the workers for the
company put up hard fight, and
worked like band of heroes, but
the odds were too heavy against
them. 1t also states that the first
and third wards, the home of the
socialists and working men gave
heavy majorities against it.
The Post says skiddoo" to the
franchise grabbers. 1t also says
that those who wanted no fran
chises played a game that would
make Brete Harte's heather Chinee
ashamed of himself. They talked
bIandly even lovingly to the fran
chise managers, but when they
came TO vote-oh, Lord"
The cold facts of the matter are
that Livingston is so impregnated
with socialistic sentiment and teach
ing, that the people are wise to any
gratis that may be practiced against
them. The working class is learn
ing that it may have political power.

GREAT FALLS

Strenuous Work of Party I'm That
City Brings Great.
Results.

The capitalist papers state that
the great surprise in the Great Falls
election was the doubling of the So
cialist vote. Its total poll was I64
votes against 70 last year. The So
cialists polled a little over II per
cent of the total vote. The prim-
airy law was also defeated in the
city vote by majority of ra3. The
socialist vote is as follows:
First ward, Geo. /. Dickinson,
al.
Second ward, Myles ]. Scallon,
81.
Third ward, w. N. Polsgrove; "A.
Fourth ward, Hiram l.. Hull, 65.

The reports of the conditions at
Hauserlake show no abatement of
the evils, the filth and the horrors
of that place. One of the chief
causes of discomfort is the Chinese
who are employed to do the cook
ing. Fourteen of these pig tailed
celestials attend to the culinary de-
partment, and the men describe all
their ways as unspeakably filthy.
Bedbugs are found in the cake, the
pudding is composed of embalmed
eggs, sour bread, and Chinese wigs,
the pan cakes are a delectable NOR
sci of raw paste scorched on the
sides.
In spite of numerous and bitter
complaints the company refuses to
dispense with the Chinaman al
though an offer was made to re-
place them with white women at the
same cost. Some impression pre-
walls that the Wisconsin Construc-
ton company is responsible for the
fearful condition that prevails.
Such is not the case: This com
pany has its own boarding houses,
with three white women in charge,
and the management is entirely
satisfa ctory. Ii is the Helena
Power and Traction company on
which is laid the heinous crime of
the sickness and death of its work
men.
1t is now stated that there are
probably.Iao typhoid cases, all told.
1t looks..like a case for the grand
jury. The Power Company must
be run by human brutes. 1t is said
they object to the decent method of
the Wisconsin company because
they will cause dissatisfaction among
the men.
The body of the man drowned
has notsyet been found. There are
no preparations whatever for caring
for injured men, no lint or medi-

at the preliminary vote the next day
when but one vote for the socialist
candidate appeared. The teacher
asked who cast the
vote.
An emphatic reproof followed,
and when it came to the regular
balloting no socialist ticket was pre-
pared to vote on.
The whole intent and purpose of
such a play as this upon innocent
children is to spot the socialists SO
as to make their life miserable for
them and undermine their .convic-
tions. Teachers have no business
to teach partisan politics in their
schools. The Socialist Party is to-
day the third party in the country,
comprising the ablest thinkers, and
scholars known in America, and the
attempt by an ignorant teacher to
so subsidize the minds of her pupils
is as great an outrage on political
liberty as the attempt to teach spec
ial religious beliefs is a violation of
religious freedom. The News de-
mands that the offensive teacher be
dismissed at once for such a flag
rant violation of the principles Of
American liberty.

HAVRE

The socialists of Havre put up
good fight. The party has not been
organized there long, but from now
on it will be recognized as a factor
in the field. The union men of the
Great Northern shops scabbed at
the ballot box. Had they known
their legitimate political program
they could have run Havre as they
wished. The socialist vote was:

TEACHERS BROWBEAT CHILDREN

A matter has come to light in
connection with election events that
has placed one of the teachers of
the Hawthorne school in position
so opposed to all principles of free
government and American institu-
tons, as to merit her summary dis
missal from public service. Before
the election the Hawthorne school,
Miss Johnson, principal, announced
that vote would be taken in the
school on the city candidates on the
following day. The teacher then
asked il there we're any socialists in
the school. Four children held up
their hands. She thereupon gave
them a lecture against harboring
such ideas, and told them there was
no socialist ticket in the field, and
they were not to vote anything of
the kind. One of the children
asked her father il there was no So
cialist ticket, and he told her there
was. After she had related what
occurred at school he told her when
it came to vote to write the name
"Fairgrieve" on her ticket, but not
to let any one know she wrote it..
She did as her father directed her

The Amalgamated company
failed in its nefarious purpose to
fasten the incubus of the primary
law upon the workers of Cascade
county, March a7. The vote stood
4so for, to gas against. There was
a majority against the law in every
precinct of the county. The Great
Falls Tribune, with spiteful fling
says, "all the socialists in the county
and all the professional politicians
have been against the law at all
times" The Montana News has
been the only paper that has con-
Quoted a campaign against the law.
1t has been circulated throughout
the county in quantities by the com
rades. The primary law leaflets
put out by the News under the head
ing, BE prepared on the Primary
Law" we're also distributed by the
socialists with liberal hand. This
victory in one of the deepest dyed
corporation counties of the state
shows the power of a press pub
lished in the interests of labor.
The wide spread publicity that
the News gave to the evils of the
the proposed measure has been the
means of defeating the petitions in

BOZEMAN

Bozeman had candidates for al
derman running in only two wards,
the First and Second. This is Mon
tana's military town where the
young men are trained to shoot
strikers, and where the Montana
militia holds its annual encamp-
ment. We cannot expect a very in
telligent working class vote from
such a place. ID. E. Frazier, cand-
idate for alderman in the First ward,
received IL votes, Hyrum Olsen,
,sndidate fer alderman in the sec
ond ward, received votes.

Red Lodge carries the socialist
banner in Montana. The election
was a bitterly contested one and has
SO been heralded in the capitalist
papers for over two weeks. The re-
publicans and democrats combined
against the socialists. The Finnish
coal miners were the ones that de-
cided the victory, voting the social.
ist ticket almost to a man. In the
silk stocking ward even, the citizens
candidate won out by only 3 major
ity. The result was as follows:
Ray Austin, socialist. is elected
mayor by vote of 400 to I6I for

STEVENSVILLE

Stevensvi.le socialists we're in the
city race also although we did not
get the word in time to publish
their ticket. w. G. Dobbins was
the candidate for mayor. The
hundred campaign numbers of the
News that were sent in with Com
rade Kings reply to the attack
made upon him by the local editor,
which the latter refused to publish,
acted like bomb shell in the ranks
of the enemy. They made all sorts
of propositions to pull Comrade
Dobbins off the ticket, but he was
not the pulling off kind. Stevens
vile also had water fight on. The
question was whether the city should
build and own her own waterworks,
or whether she should vote twenty
year franchise. The old party can
didates. were about evenly divided
on the issue, which gave the social
lists the balance of power. AS a con-
sequence every effort was made to
pull off the socialist candidate for
mayor, and the plutes even offered
to guarantee his election for alder
man in the second word. But"
the word came to the News he
lust smiles and saws wood"

The Independent said Falrgrieve
was ineligible for the mayoralty.
He would have to work. This is
the sort of ignorant insult that the
capitalist class is accustomed to
throw at labor. OF course it is the
CRATER class that does the work of
society.

He came to this country about seven

UPHOLDS CLAIMS OF
BERTHA,DOLBEER'S CHUM
By Associated Press.

By Associated Press
SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. S.-Judge
Coffey today rendered his decision i'm
the Dolbeer will contest, upholding the
will that left the bulk of the estate to
Eta Marian Warren, the close friend
and companion of Bertha Dolbeer.
The contest was brought by Horatio
Schander of Sacramento, an uncle of
the deceased.
over a year ago the will was con-
tested by Adolph Schander, another
uncle, on the ground that Miss Dolbeer
was of unsound mind when it was
made. He received adverse decisions in
both the superior and supreme courts,
having appealed to the latter.
The suit decided today alleged in
sanity and undue influence.
A third contest brought by the heirs
of Adolph Schander on similar grounds
is pending and will be submitted to
Judge Coffey for the decision on the
evidence taken in the previous suits.
