COUNTING UP THE COST.

Senator La Toilette for the second
time has asked Theodore Roosevelt to
publish statement of his expenses in
his recent campaign for the presidency
and thus far Roosevelt ignores It,.
Wouldn't it be fair and interesting if
Mr.. Roosevelt would make public the
amount of money expenses and the
source from whence it came? 1t would be
somewhat progressive also.--St. Johns
bury CALIFORNIAN.
1t is extremely doubtful if Theodore
Roosevelt knows how much money was

spent in behalf of his candidacy before
the meeting of the Republican national
convention. Perhaps he has some gen.
eral idea of the amount which was re-
quired to finance his great campaign /;
but as for accurate details it would be
necessary to go to various men in many
parts OF the country to ascertain the
amount, chiefly to George w. Perkins.
Mr.. Perkins might be able to give US
some comprehension of the total amount,
and through him Mr.. Roosevelt should
furnish the information, just as the other
candidates should furnish information as
to the cost OF their campaigns. Senator
La Toilette is reasonable in his request.

SPEAKS AT ST. JAMES
DELIVERS HIS FIRST SERMON AS
RECTOR-cOMES FROM
WISCONSIN

Rev. George Hirst held his first SER
vice at St. James Sunday as rector,
although he was here during the sum.
mer as the guest Of Attorney l. b.
Kirkland and preached at the church
then.
Mr.. Hirst, after spending some time
here and looking into conditions and
the prospects for the future, finally
decided to cast his lot with Lewistown
and has taken up the work in his new
field with vigor.
He comes here from Chippewa Falls
Wisconsin, and his career as a priest
has been most successful one. Since
his ordination in 1899 he has labored
continuously for the church and built
four churches in Wisconsin, the last
one having been opened on Sept. 29
His family will arrive here during
the week, and the rectory has been
improved and made into a very com

BASE BALL MEETING
IS AGAIN POSTPONED
NEW DATE is NOV. 18-STEvENS
STILL THINKS STATE LEAGUE
WILL BE FORMED.

Captain bill" Stevens is back from
Butte, where he went to attend the
meeting of the Union League associa-
ton. "Bill" was prepared to make a
proposition, backed with the money,
to have Lewistown taken into state
league in case 1t should be decided to
drop Salt Lake and Ogden and add a
couple of Montana cities. For the
second time, however, a postponement
was decided upon, without any action
being taken, this time until Nov. 1S.
Mr.. Stevens says that Notwithstanding
the reports to the fact that state
league is not favored by the associa-
ton, there is an excellent chance of
one being formed, and he Is certain
that II this is done he will put Lew
istown in it.
Although much smaller than the
league cities, Lewistown is now recog-
niZed as better baseball town than
some of its larger neighbors.

CLAIMS DAMAGES AS
RESULT OF FALL
JOHN THEBERT SUES CRESCENT
ELECTRIC CONTAMINATION
TION FOLLOWS SHEEP DEAL.

John E. Thebert yesterday brought
suit in the district court against the
Crescent Electric company to recover
$1,000 for injuries received through a
fall while at work in the new Presby-
terian church as electrical helper and
wire man in the employ of the de-
fendant company. The accident, 1t Is
alleged, was due to the neglect of the
defendant, an elevated scaffold on
which the plaintiff was working giving
way and precipitating him into the
basement, distance of twenty-five
feet. The fall, it is set out, resulted
in dislocation of the shoulder, rem
dering the plaintiff unable to perform
any work. E. w. Mettler and Belden
& DeKalb are the plaintiffs attorneys.

TOTAL FOR FERGUS WILL STAND
AT ABOUT FIVE THOUSAND
THREE HUNDRED,
THE GAIN IS IMMENSE
Figures Given Are Exclusive Of Three
Hundred and Twenty-Five Women
Registered for School Elections
Getting Election Supplies Together
The Ballots.

The total number of voters regis
tered by County Clerk and Recorder
F. r. Cunningham was 5000, with be-
tween sixty and seventy more known
to have registered outside the city to
be added. On the last day, Saturday,
voters We're registered at various
points in the county by notaries and
justices of the peace and it will take
few days for the mails to bring in
all OF them, but the final total will
stand at just about $500.
Astonishing Increase.
When it is considered that two
years ago the total vote of the county
was 3,414 and that afterwards county
division reduced that total by 572,
leaving the vote at 2,S42, this result
is nothing short of astonishing. In
a word, the total registration today is
nearly double the vote cast in what is
now Fergus county two years ago.
Many Not Registered.
Well-informed men say that hun
dreds Of adult native-born citizens
residents of Fergus county, are not
registered, most of them failing in the
requirement Of years residence In
the state, they having come here with.
in the past twelve months. How many
of these citizens there are cannot be
ascertained, or even accurately esti-
mated, but 1t is agreed that there are
at least 500 Of them.
Women Registered.
The figures given are exclusive of
325 women who are registered in this
county in order to vote at school cleo
tiops. In most of the other counties
the reports of the number registered
have included the women, such figures
being misleading.
Election Supplies.
Mr.. Cunningham has already sent
out the notices of election to be post
ed in the various precincts and is now
getting the supplies together. The
ballot will have the candidates of four
parties on, so far as the county is con.
cerned, republican, democratic, pro
gressive and socialist.
