NEW MACHINES ARRIVE.
Three Franklin Cars Added to Lis,
of Automobiles in the City.

Lewistown now boasts with pardon
able pride of having more fine auto
mobiles than any town Of its size in
the state, or perhaps in this section
of the west. The latest added to the
list are three fine new Franklin ma
chimes purchased by Messrs. J. T..
Lane, ]. d. Waite and II. c. Brown.
They arrived the latter part of the
week and may be said to be marvels
of beauty. The addition of the latter
cars brings the total number Of ma
chimes now up to 20 and by the mid
die of the summer there will be a
material increase, as number of local
people have already placed orders or
have in contemplation the purchase
of machines
There is no country in the world
where there is more scope for auto
mobiling then here and persons who
can afford it find it the greatest
recreation out A number of the real
estate men are also figuring on pur-
chasing cars within the near future.

GOES TO PEN.
Bolts Gets Fifteen Months for
Forperv

Forgery.
Alfred Bolts, charged with forging
the name of R. w. Noble to $45
check, almost had an attack of heart
failure when he read the startling
news the other evening that he had
been sentenced to IS years in the
state prison. He had almost lost all
of his self composure until he had
heard later that it was only Is
months Because of the fact that
Bolts pleaded guilty., thus saving the
county expense, Judge Cheadle had
decided on giving the offender year,
which sentence would have been inn
posed had not Noble endeavored to
misrepresent certain things to the
court.
When asked for an explanation of
his misdeeds Bolts said that he was
badly intoxicated at the time and did
not know what he was doing The
judge then called for the forged in
strument and found that the sigma
ture had been written in very
steady hand and that it was good
attempt. Further Bolts had engaged
the services of another to cash the
check, showing that he had planned
the forgery carefully.
The family of Bolts is in poor cir
cumstances but the judge informed
the prisoner that they would be cared
for by the county during his term in
prison.

CANDIDATES ARE NAMED
Democrats Of LeWiStoWn Hold Primaries and Sc.
leCt Good Men for Aldermen-.-Reply
to Republican Central Committee.

The democrats of the city held en-
thusiastic and harmonious primaries
in the respective wards last Satur-
day evening and named three alder
manic candidates for the coming
election.
The democrats are almost unani-
nous that such a ticket should be
named and they have put in the field
ticket of exceptional strength.
In the first ward NJ. L. Woodman
was chosen as the candidate for al
derman. Mr.. Woodman says that
owing to his numerous private in
terests, he does not think that he will
have the time to devote to the city
affairs which they naturally demand
and the central committee will meet
within the next two or three days and
name some one in his stead.
In the second ward, David Jones
was named. Mr.. Jones holds a re.
sponsible position in the First Ma.
tional bank and is especially vel
fitted for the position. He is a very
popular young man and his election
is foregOne conclusion.
F. ]. Hazen, assistant cashier o1
the Empire Bank and Trust company
who is now member of the council
by appointment, was nominated ir
the third ward. No better man fol
the place could be named and Mr.
Hazen is also sure winner.
The democrats generally express
the utmost satisfaction with the
ticket. The following committeeman
were chosen for the respective wards
First Ward, Julius Petersen and
Georee Anderson.
Second Ward, L. P. Slater and Joe
Gallagher.
Third Ward, H. L. DeKalb and E,

Democrats Make Statement.

Washington, March 26. = Repre-

of the minority in the house of repre-
sentatives, issued to the press today
a written statement defining the atti-
tude of the democratic party in the
house toward legislation urged by
President Roosevelt in his message to
congress at the present session. The
statement describes what republican
legislation the democrats will support,
what they will oppose, and what con-
cessions they demand on the part OF
the majority at the price of refraining
from an organized flibuster through
out the remainder of the session.

A procession headed by the men,
