APPLE SHOW PRIZES
ARE GOOD
THE PREMIUM LIST FOR THE
COMING EXPOSITION is
BEST EVER OFFERED.

81 49, &c.
Tomorrow afternoon there will be
held the. final meeting of the commit
tee which has in charge the prepara-
ton of the premium list for the West
ern Montana Apple show. to be held
in Missoula october IS to -, inclusive.
The list is all ready now except for
the arrangement OF a few special
prizes which have been offered by
agricultural implement dealers and
nursery men. These will be placed in
the list tomorrow. and then as soon
as the books can be printed the COM
plete details of the program will be i'll
the hands of the public.
The apple show is n departure from
the county fair which has been made
largely on account of the merchants.
The entire show will be held in Mis-
soula and not at the fair grounds. 1t
is yet to be decided whether 1t will
be held in the old Union theater or in
Il tent to be erected in the center of
town. There will be stalls and booths
arranged for the display of the fruit
and for rental to such merchants as
desire to make advertising displays of
their wares.
The premium list aggregates nearly
$4,000 and will prove an inducement
to fruitgrowers and farmers to bring
to the show the best they have in
their fields and orchards. The COM
mittee has received assurance that
there will be a generous response from
the Bitter Root orchards and farms.
A committee of the Hamilton Cham
Der of Commerce has in preparation
an exhibit from that section. and it
Is expected that other districts of TIN:
valley will fall into line.
An effort is being made to induce
the orchard men of Sanders. Flathead
and Lincoln counties to take part
along with those of Ravalli and Mis-
soula and make the show characters
tically a western Montana exposition.
1t will do the country much good and
will concentrate in Missoula display
of the products of this end of the
state that cannot fail to impress the
visitors.
The fair being held In town. there
viii he an opportunity for those who
cannot visit ii in the afternoon to see
it in the evening. There will be n
concert program each evening aEf
other side attractions to make a visit
to the show, doubly interesting. The
premium list has been prepared with
view to recognizing all of the most
prominent varieties of western Mon
tana apples. and if the fruitgrowers
enter properly into the spirit of the
show there will be an exhibition that
will be surprising in its size and its
attractiveness.
1t is expected that the irrigation
companies which are operating in this
field will make displays representing
the progress that has been made In
the reclamation of lands in this part
Of the state. There will also be an
opportunity for the dry farmers to
show what they can do. The show.
in fact, has been outlined to present
as comprehensively as possible the
wonderful resources of this part of
Montana.

Returns from South Peaceable and
Anxious to Be Forgiven by

Colonel Charles f. flaming is home as
pescable as a lamb. lie returned Friday
night from Hot Springs and confirms the
report that he still has his uniform and
that he hopes the governor will not ac-
cept his resignation as a colonel on the
executives staff, because he wants to go
to the Seattle exposition with the army
next summer. The colonel laughed at his
huff OF a month ago. when. he sent his
resignation to the governor and said there
was nc use in crying over spilled milk.
Colonel Tanning ayers that he has been
at Hot Springs and Excelsior Springs all
the time lie has been away and denies that
he ever even thought OF financing Cipriano
Castro and aiding that deposed despot to
regain his footing in Venezuela. Some Of
the colonels friends circulated the report
that he was going to help Castro, and in
the event the deposed president regained
his power. he was to give the colonel a
AXE or asphalt in return FOR the aid.

w omen Spear Men
With Rose Bushes
Tote the Prickly Briers Through the
Streets and Keep Male Per-
sons Afar.

Lovely woman has discovered a lew,
albeit an expensive weapon. wherewith to
make horrid man get out OF the way.
A sale of rose bushes was in progress for
some days at a Douglas street store. and
from that as a center the aforesaid lovely
women we're radiating in all directions
which coincide with public throughfsres.
The rose bushes were so large it was
practically impossible to carry them in any
way except transversely across the body.
two or three feet of rose bush covered
with fine. prickly thorns, extended back
of the shoulder almost as far from the
body as the big hats upon which tickle
fashion recently put, We are told, the
kibosh.
Thus armored and appurtenanced. the
purchasers of the rose bushes could and
did walk up the street, sometimes literally
cutting a wide swath. Mere men who
failed 10 step aside the distance due felt
a series OF stinEs upon the cheek and neck
like unto the bite OF a wasp, and one ex-
p~erience proved all sufficient in every case.
The progress Of the rose bearers proved a
sort OF running the gauntlet with reverse
English.

Ways. II would be even more easy for a
designing politician. n the ruling had been
the other way, to induce such a number
OF candidates TO come out that names for
this office could not be used upon the ma
chine. but must go upon the additional
paper ballot.
II ~ Unprecedented.
To adopt the method suggested whereby
q dual system Of voting should he neces-
sary would be TO ~inaugurate something un-
heard OF in my experience. II IL unprece-
dented that a portion Of the officials OF a
city should be chosen by one method and
another portion by another. The very sug-
gestion is repellant."
Following the decision Lysle |. Abbott
announced that the A~nti-saloon league can
didates-of whom he Is one-will carry the
matter to the supreme court, where il will
be heard along with the appeal taken by
Elmer Thomas on Judge Redick's decision
that the democratic and republican nomi-
noes for the Board OF Fire and Police Com
missioners should have the party designs-
ton on the ballot.

Dan Batter aud His star Get No Rest
Under DeriaIon.

Dan Butter aud HIS stan Get No Hest
Under Decision.
II you want TO see a busy boy cast your
eyes on Mr.. ID. Butler, city clerk.
The courts ruling at this late day to
place the names OF all candidates for all
offices on printed ballots and vote at Tues
days election under the old Australian sys-
TEN, -discarding the voting machines en-
tirely, is causing no end of trouble in the
office Of the city clerk. II will also com
pel.a- force of printers and pressmen to
work night and day from now until late
Monday night and there will be no Sunday
rest for the clerks in the clerks office or
the printers who turn out the ballots.
The slips and charts for the voting ma
chimes. together with the poll books. have
all been printed and prepared for delivery
to the several booths but these will all
have to be thrown away. This little
change in the program will cost
the city. about 5000. New poll books
will have to be printed and. bound and
about $1,000 ballots, including official and
sample, must be printed, counted, sealed
and delivered to the fifty-four voting pre-
cincts before $50 O'Clock Tuesday morning.
Carpenters will have to be pressed into
the work and booths constructed at most
of the polling places. as the accommoda-
lions are not sufficient for an election
where the vote will be many times heavier
than at a primary.
The ballot will be four feet long and six
inches wide. the official ballots to be on
white paper and the samples on pink
| paper. They will contain an even 100
names. There are three candidates each
for mayor, clerk. comptroller, attorney and
building Inspector, thirty-six candidates
for the council; five for city engineer and
forty-four for the Board of Fire and Po-
lice Commissioners
There will be one column on the ballot
and the name of one candidate in a line.
The democratic nominee for each office
will appear first on all ballots and the
names will not rotate as at a primary cleo
ton. The clerk is a democrat and he
naturally gives his party the preference.
At the head Of the ballot will appear the
names Of the candidates for mayor
Dahlman, democrat; Breen, republican;
Vaughan, socialist. rhe will come the
candidates for clerk-Butler, Greenleaf and
w~eetman-and following will be the can
didates for comptroller, attorney and build
ing Inspector, the democrat being named
first, republican second and socialist third
The five candidates for city engineer will
come next, then the thirty-six candidate,
for the council on the three tickets anc
at the bottom will be the candidates fol-
the excise board. The democratic nominee,
for this board will appear first within a
bracket and then the republican nominees
in the same form. The other thlrty-si
candidates, including the four endorsed b,
the Anti-Saloon league, will follow withou
brackets, as the league is not a party.
City Clerk Butler says It will take abour
a week to count the votes cast under tn,
Australian ballot law.

sod for All Anti-SslOOn
LcnEue Appeals to SUI
IRENE COurt.

',uag machines will not be used al the
ity election Tuesday.
Judge Troup granted Saturday morning
he mandamus against City Clerk Butler
prayed for by the republican candidates
sor city engineer and the excise board.
The Australian ballot. according to the
crms OF the courts order, will be the
,nly election device used.
Judge Troup declared that not only the
Nv. nut common fairness to the candidates
md all OF the candidates and to the voters
and the integrity and fairness of the cleo
ton itself require that the prayer OF the
petitioners he granted
The decision was based upon section 10,
chapter 81. Of the General Laws OF Ne
brasks. This provides:
That at all elections where voting ma
chimes shall be used the voting machine
shall be regarded and treated as q sliostl-
tute for the paper ballot and ballot boxes
heretofore used.
THE plain intent Of the legislature, de-
clared the court, was that the voting ma
chine should replace the ballot in entirety,
not in part: that It should be a substitute
Cor the paper ballot as a whole. Moreover,
almost I'm the next breath the Legislature
said that official ballots OF the kind here
tofore used shall not be furnished when
AZ any election voting machines are EN-
oloyed.'
Va Merit In the Contention.
1T is claimed that the petition came too
late: that the time is so short 1t is i'm
possible that these ballots can be prepared.
Il goes without saying there is no merit
n this contention. II any one should have
known OF the multiplicity of candidates II
ought to have been the city clerk. He
would have known OF It as soon as any
one else or sooner. While the clerk, I have
no doubt. has acted in the utmost good
faith, nevertheless the consequence fol
lows and results rest upon that officer or
account OF whom the rights of the candi'
dates and voters should not be prejudiced
nor the election itself possibly rendered
Illegal.
Counsel for the defendant has raised
the point that a ruling such as I have in
, dictated would make 1t possible for a de
signing politician to induce such a number
Of candidates to come out at every cleo
ton where voting machines are to be useC
that 1t would knock out the use of thu
machines each time. 1t is apparent tina
this argument is a sword which cuts TIVE
