In the ballroom of the hotel-it was
called tavern in those days-before
the opening of the convention were
gathered the leaders, who were con-
structing the new party platform, Stat

doing other preliminary work. In q

RAPE FOR FEED.

May BE SOwn Late.
AS green feed for soiling-that IL,
cutting and feeding green-or for pas
ture rape stands unequaled among
crops suitable for swine. 1t should be
sown in rows two feet apart on stub
bic, fallow or well rotted sod at the
rate of three pounds per acre. 1t may
be sown any time. as long as there re-
main six weeks of growing weather
before severe frosts are to be expect
ed. Ii intended to be pastured the
pigs should be turned in before the
rape comes up to the top of their
shoulders. No greater area should be
given than they are likely to keep
down to that height or lower. If not
pastured or cut too close to the ground
1t will keep on growing as long as the
growing season lasts. Greater returns
may be expected from soiling than
from pasturing a given area. Feed
ing pigs will generally make moro
rapid gains when it Is being fed to
them in moderate quantities in pens
than when at pasture on 1t. Breeding
stock are likely to do better when they
can use it as pasture. Feeding pigs
receiving all the rape they will eat on
rape pasture should receive somewhat
less meal than they would If In their
pens. From one-third to f1ve-slxths Oh
the regular ration should be fed; the
more rapid the gain desired, of course,
the heavier the ration.-J. II. Grisdala

That is the business of his mother and
female relations, who visit several
marrAgeable girls and select one, with
whom the bridegroom then exchanges
a ring-by messenger. On the day Of
the betrothll contract an imam gets
the assent of the bride elect through
the door of the harem, and the two
families dine together, neither of the
two persons most concerned being
present. On the wedding day the
bl ide'S rousseau is taken to her hus-
bands house. while she is taken the
round of her relatives, and there is
much dancing at every house. after
which her male relatives exercise all
malign spirits with swords and spears
in dumb snow of fighting. Finally
evening draws on. the bride reaches
her husbands home, and everybody
clears out. leaving her and her hus-
band to see each other for the first
time and to scrape acquaintance as
best they can. UIHler the old Moslem
law even speaking acquaintance would
have been impossible. as the bride was
doomed TO absolute silence for whole
month. Now her husband gives her a
present at meeting, and she may speak.
There are few barbarous tribes in the
most benighted of continents where
courtship ard marriage are more gro

Turkish sutton that he need not even
pretend to be lover. No ardor could

In the nomination of Thomas J.

Democrats might have done worse. Mr.
Walsh is an able and conspicuous cor.
poration attorney of Helena, while Mr.
McClernan is one of the presiding
judges in Silver Bow county against
whom nothing derogatory can be said
1t is well that both parties have chos

further tend to take this Office out Of
the strife incident to the campaign
The Republicans have nominated III
Henry c. Smith a man who has had
long experience on the bench and
whose conceded ability and popularity
will entitle him to his full party sup
port and election. While Mr.. Walsh
stands high in his profession he is
cold, austere and repellant in his per.
sonality, a far different type of man
than Charles N. Pray, his opponent on
the Republican ticket. Furthermore
Mr.. Walsh stands for much that IL
vicious and detrimental to the inter.
ests of the American people and the
people of Montana. He would oppose
Theodore Roosevelt in his reform
movement in the effort to pave a way
for Democratic ascendency two years
hence. Antagonizing the administra.
ton, he would be able to accomplish
but little more for Montana than that

THE COUNTY TICKET,

Inc Republican county ticket is fast
gaining friends and supporters among
the voters. They realize that it is
made up Of strong and capable men
from first to last, and that they were
the free and open choice OF conven.
ton whose delegates came direct from
people, whose interests alone they
were expected to conserve.
The legislative ticket is composed
Of men of integrity, ability and char.
acter, men who are identified with
the great industries of the county,
men who, being richly endowed with
common sense, will see that laws are
enacted that will protect and pro-
mote all of our industries as well as
the individual welfare of the people
of this county and of the state. Fur
thermore, they will stand for some
thing more than any mans political
ambition, however creditable and hon
orable it may be. In the senatorial con-
test next winter they will stand for
Theodore Roosevelt in all OF his under
takings in behalf of the reforms al.
ready begun; they will stand for those
Republican policies which have
brought about the greatest era of
prosperity SLICE Tie organization OF
the government; they will stand for a
man who, in himself, will be a true
representative of the people and one
capable of accomplishing lasting ben.
efits for this young commonwealth
We want full representation in Wash
ington, not Misrepresentation. This is
Republican state and it should be
represented in the nations capital by
one Republican congressman and two
Republican senators. This fact should
be borne in mind by every member of
the party who may feel inclined to
give friend on the opposition legis-
lative ticket complimentary vote out
of friendship.
The balance Of the county ticket,
from sheriff to coroner, should re-
ceive the hearty support of the party
and Of all voters who want to see the
various offices conducted in an able
and business-like manner. In the few
weeks remaining before election many
of the voters will have the pleasure
of meeting the candidates on the Re.
publican ticket as we'll as an opportun-
ity to learn of their fitness for the
offices for which they have been
named. We believe their candid Judge
ment will be that the Republican cor
vention selected the best men for
the positions to be filled.

Wage Payments-In order to insure
the prompt payment Of workingmen'
wages in cash when due, Fl state:
have enacted laws requiring employ
ers to pay wages weekly or fortnight
ly, and in some instances prohibiting
a longer interval than one month be
tween pay days. Of these states Il
are Republican and six are Democratic
Protection of Members of Labor Or
actea laws, that are now in force
prohibiting employers from discharg
ing persons on account of membership
in labor organizations, or from com
pelling persons to agree not to become
members Of labor organizations as a
condition of securing employment OF
continuing in their employ. OF these
13 are Republican and two are Demo
cratic states.
Woman Labor-Next to the children
the greatest victims of abuse by greedy
employers when unrestrained by law
are women. Investigations have shown
that their condition is sometimes pitt.
full where employers are given free
scope in their employment. Their
protection, in the interest of humanity
and morals, has also been the subject
of legislation in nearly all civilized
countries. In the United States 80
states have legislated upon this sub
ject. OF these 80 states, ~ are Re-
publican, and II are Democratic.
Again it is interesting to note that of
the q Republican states regulating
women labor p provide for factory
inspection, while of the II Democratic
states mentioned, only four make such
provision.
While the above are only a few ex-
amples OF what the Republican party
has done and is doing in the way of
legislation for the betterment and up
lifting of the masses they should be
sufficient to convince every fair-mind-
ed man that the Republican party is
the true friend of the common people.
Actions speak louder than words.
What becomes of the demagogic claim
that the Democratic party is the la
boring mans friend?

why Mr.. Rae has not cast a vote in
Fergus county was because he was
called away to Chicago on business
two years ago and did not return dur
ing the registration period. Mr.. Rae
has been a resident of Fergus county
as long as the two candidates for the
legislature on the Democratic ticket,
Messrs. De Kalb and Easel, and his
interests in Fergus county are certain
ly as extensive as theirs. Aside from
his company connections at Gilt Edge
he is personally interested in mining
property at Kendall. If he had not ex-
pected to remain in Fergus county
he would not have accepted the nom-
ination for the senate.
