JUDGE TURNS DOWN
INJUNCTION APPLICATION

The case of J. H. Geiger VS.. the
city of Libby was called for hear
ing in the district court last Thurs
day. Court was called and the
arguments started. Just then Judge
J. Erickson received a telegram
telling him that his mother, who
lives at Eureka, Kansas, was ser
iously i'll and asking him to come.
Counsel for the city submitted two
afidavits setting forth the facts in
the case and the judge took the
matter under advisement promising
to let the people of Libby know
when he reached a decision.
The fore part of the week the
clerk of the court received word
from the judge together with his
decision in the case. He dismissed
the temporary restraining order
and denied the application for an
injunction.
The city council can now go
ahead with the work of installing
the sewer system. This delay
causes considerable inconvenience
but with due diligence and a lot OF
hustling the work may be com
pleted before the ground gets badly
frozen.

Presbyterian Church Doings

The Silver Tea at Mrs. Herbst S
last Friday was somewhat inter-

no means failure.
The church pews have arrived
and we hope to have them installed
so as to have services in the audi
torium next Sunday.
Rev. Reed returned Tuesday
evening from Deer Lodge where he
attended synod meeting. He will

Lincoln County Fair
Gives Great Exhibition

The Lincoln county fair closed
last Saturday evening at Eureka.
When consideration is taken of the
many handicaps placed upon the
management by reason of the un-
finished conditions of the buildings
and grounds, the exhibition was
singularly successful. The attend
ance was not so good as it should
have been; the efforts of the man.
agement and the attractions pre-
sented justified a much greater at
tendance. The exhibits were, in
many departments, of the finest
quality. The fruit display, while
not extensive, was one Of the best
in quality ever shown in Montana,
Some of the live stock would be
entitled to premium in any of the
big shows of the country. The
display of dairy products, fine
arts and needle work were credit
able. Every effort was made by
the men in charge of the fair to
provide a program of sports and
pastimes that would entertain and
edify the people in attendance, and
their efforts were successful. The
Indian sports and dances, the horse
races and athletic contests dew an
interested crowd.
The people OF Eureka put forth
every effort to entertain the crowds
and all visitors we're the recipients
OF every evidence of hospitality.

county, in convention assembled,
adopt the following declaration of
principles and policies:
1. We approve of the platform
adopted by the national democratic
convention at Baltimore; also of
the platform adopted by the state
democratic convention at Great
Falls, and pledge ourselves to the
democracy of Lincoln county, to
loyal and enthusiastic support of
Wilson ard Marshall for president
and vice-prcsident; the Hon. L. ].
Walsh for u. S. senator; Hon. Tom
Stout and John M. Evans for rep
resentatives in congress-; Hon. Sam
V. Stewart as governor of Monta-
na; and all of the other candidates
named and presented by the state
democratic convention held in Great
Falls.
2. Especially do we endorse the
nomination OF Hon. ]. +. Erickson
as judge of the district court in the
eleventh judicial district of the
State of Montana, in and for the
counties of Flathead and Lincoln,
and We ask for him the unanimous
support of the people of Lincoln
county as a mark of the high es-
TEEN in which they hold him for
his consistent rectitude and fair
mindedness, shown by all his rul
ings and decisions from our district
court bench during the past eight
years.
3. We approve of the admins
tration of their Offices by all the
democratic officers of Lincoln
county for the past two years and
commend them for their excellent
services rendered to the people of
Lincoln county, and especially do
we commend the record and works
of Senator James +. Leary as state
senator from Lincoln county.
d. We favor the most economical
administration of county affairs
consistent with good service. Be
lieying that the welfare and speedy
development of this, our new
county, will largely be determined
by the facilities OF transportation
through our midst. We most
heartily approve of such a road
construction policy to be carried
out by our county commissioners
as will afford our people means of
travel on good county highways,
back and forth throughout our
county to the end that we may
unity and so'idify the general COM
mercial Interests of the county as
much as possible, and we pledge
our candidate nominated for county
commissioner to stand for such
road construction policy and to
favor insofar as the financial means
of the county will consistently per-
nit, the greatest possible amount
of road and bridge construction
work. Especially would we COM
mend the plan that has been fol-
lowed with such success in some
counties of Montana, where differ
ent neighborhoods III rural districts
hove taken it upon themselves to
provide liberal contributions Of
labor and team work to go with
the contributions of money furn-
ished by the county for better de-
velopment of certain district and
neighborhood roads. Such d pol
icy bespeaks high order of intel
ligence and patriotism in these
neighborhoods, which is in every
Way commendable.
S. We pledge our candidate for
the state legislature to sign state
ment number one by which he
agrees to vote for that candidate
for United Safes senator who re-
ceives the largest number of votes
at the hands of the people for such

Libby last Saturday was about as
harmonious as any convention eve,
pulled off where representative
delegation attended from all parts
of the county. Only three contests
all told.
The one trouble of the conven-
ton was to place a man on the
ticket for the legislature. We have
plenty of good material but the con-
vention seemed to think c "A. We'll
OF Eureka was the man to fill the
job and gave him the nomination
by acclamation. After the smoke
and the shouting had died away
Mr.. We'll refused the nomination.

trail committee held meeting and
selected Herman Bockman, ST., TO

Columbus, o., June 3-The att
tude which United States Senator
Theodore e. Burton will take in his
keynote speech as temporary chair
man of the republican state conven-
ton today was the chief topic of dis
cussion among the delegates who ar
rived yesterday. Senator Burton on
his arrival at once went into confer

man of the republican state central
committee and manager of Col Roose
velt's campaign in the state. Follow.
ing this he held a long discussion
with Lewis o. Laylin, manager of the
Taft forces in the state.
Mr. Laylin claimed that the Taft
delegates will control the convention
and the election of the six delegates
at large to the national convention at
Chicago with more than 400 of the
754 delegates composing the convenl
ton. Mr. Brown declared again yes.

ran Taft closely for second place in
the preference vote. He stumped
Ohio and New Jersey, yet the latter
weathered it without serious loss.
The nature of some Of the support
given Roosevelt is enough to prove
fatal TO any other candidacy. Start
ing out as the avowed enemy of "spe-
cial privilege" and the buster of bad
trusts, his campaign has been finan-
ced largely by magnates of the Stan
dard Oil, the Steel and Harvester
trusts. The identity of these men
and the amount of their contributions
is no secret IL would damn any
other mans chances, but ii doesn't
seem to dampen Rooseyelt's. He as
sails the bosses and the machines;
yet he has bosses and machines OF
his own. little If any more entitled to
credit or standing, But all this es-
capes the acclaiming multitude.
Roosevelt has the administration
against him, with its power of patron
age the regular party organizations
in most of the states the oldtime
skilled politicians; the bulk of the
public press; the national committee,
and the substantial business element
of the country. Up against such a
combination, what show would an
ordinary man have?
But Roosevelt is no ordinary man
his worst enemies must admit this.
He has elements of strength never
before equalled in a single personal

on the people that no one since Bo-

IL is idle to talk that Roosevelt's

populistic offshoots for years, but
they have not amounted TO much. Nor
