Of the London Sporting Life, who con-

The story is largely a series Of answers

upon the Hackenschmidt episode at Chit

Gotch said. And then he was asked his

The Wibaux pioneer. [volume] (Wibaux, Mont.) 1907-1919, 1908-10-08

No man ever nominated for a
prominent public Office in Mon
tana has awakened SO much ins
terest as Edward Donlan Of Mis-
soula who is the choice of the Re-
publican party for Governor. Be-
cause so little has hteherto been
known Of his past, he has been
looked upon as sort Of my ysterious
character. The real reason why
SO little is known of him is that he
is almost timid of personal pub
licity. Naturally taciturn, he can
not be brought to talk much about
himself.
Senator Donlan actually CON-
menced his Montana career as a
section hand at Monarch a little
over l9 years ago. He had even
then, after short experience in
the Michigan woods, desire to
60 into the logging business. He
was but Is years old when he ar
rived at Sheep Greek, now in Cas-
cade County, and got a job to float
logs down that stream, but low
water prevented him from working
there, and he became a day laborer
on the Monarch section. He went
back to logging that summer, and
his first drive landed him in Great
Falls in August, 1892. There he
hired out as a log loader and inside

Of three years he was a recognized
expert in his line.
AT this time his reputation was
high with all classes of his neigh
bors but it depended wholly Upon
his uniform good nature, his silent
sympathy with his comrades, his
indefatigible industry and the plain
decency ofhis daily life. Temp

he had succeeded in saving con-
siderable money and his mind was
already made up to go into business
for himself when, in 1892 he mar
ried Miss Josephine Ticker, Of
Green Bay, Wisconsin. His first
business venture was on a modest
scale but it grew rapidly under his
incessant care, so that in 1905 he
was able to establish comfortable
home i'll Missoula and supplement
his lumber business with a general
merchantile establishment.
Mrs. Donlan and their four chill
dren and a few close friends know
how proud Ed. Donlan is Of his
inevitable rise in prosperity and
eminence but he cannot be brought
to boast Of it and seldom refers to
his early struggles except wheh
chatting by his own fireside. The
DOMAINS have four children,
Christina, the only girl is II, Ward
is 8, Arthur 6 and Maurice is l8
months. That is the plain out
line Of the mans Montana life and
it is chiefly striking because of it's
almost elemental simplicity.

REPUBLICAN,
CANDIDATES
On State Ticket Will be
Here on Special Train
Monday, October ~.

Eastern Montana people are
going to have the opportunity in
the week beginning October II
and ending October II, to meet
the candidates OH the republican
state ticket. On a special train
Consisting. Of an engine. baggage
car, and tourist sleeper, the can
didates are going to visit the towns
along the line of the Northern
Pacific from Wibaux to Bozeman,
taking il the counties Of Dawson,
Custer, Rosebud, Yellowstone,
Carbon, Park and Gallatin.
On the trip there will be from
half dozen to dozen stops each
day and evening, and in addition
where possible, trips will be made
to towns off the railroad. All Of
the candidates desired to make the
trip to Eastern Montana, and after
consideration it was decided that
the only way they could do so, and
with the least expense, was to get
special train. With it they
can visit half dozel; places a day,
and the trip will take a week,
whereas by using the regular trains
it would take three weeks to cover
the same territory, and with much
less satisfaction to the people and
to the candidates themselves.
The candidates will be in Wibaux
from 10 a. m. to II o'clock a. m.
on the first day of their trip-Monday
October IL. Thus giving all the
voters of this section All excellent
opportunity to personally meet
and hear some Of the greatest men
of our great state.

next week, when fairly good sup

run for that month since 1904 and
$4,000 under the corresponding
month of last year. Supplies for

$4,000
PRICES IN GOOD GAIN.
The neat price advance Of 100
25c was scored last week for range
beef steers, in the face Of set back
for native grades of l5@25c, and
the westerns really brought rel
atively better rates than the natives.
However, lOc Of this advance was
ceded back at the start Of this week.
Local packers were the chief buyers,
orders on both eastern and export
accounts being less numerous.
Not many sales of beef steers were
made above $500, while bulk sold
at that price and down to $4.l5.
She stock met excellent demand
and rates gained 1O@15c last week,
transactions being very largely at
$3.25@4.25. Sales at the start of
this week were steady.
