PR MARY NOMINATIONS
FOR THE PRESIDENCY.

of legislation which will provide
for primary elections through
out the country at which the
voters of the several parties may
choose their nominees for the
presidency without the interven-

venture the suggestion that this
legislation should provide for the
retention of party conventions,
but only for the purpose of de-
claring and accepting the YER

ties, and suggest that these
conventions should consist not
of delegates chosen for this sin
gle purpose, but of the nominees
for congress, the nominees for
vacant seats in the senate of the
United States, the senators
whose terms have not yet closed,
the national committees and the
candidates for the presidency
themselves, in order that plat
forms may be framed by those

North Butte Acquiring
 More Property

A speclal to the Mining Age from Butte, Montana, says: At last it has been definitely ascertained that the wholesale purchase of claims in the southeastern part of the district is for the North Butte Co. For months Charles MattisOn, well known attor- ney, has been going quietly about se- curing shares of the Ida Montana and the Amazon Butte and other claims Tn the locality, and the deeds have been made out in the name of w. D. Thorn ton, president of the Greene-Cananea Co. At first the supposition was that Mir. Thornton was acting for MT. John D. Ryan, president of the Amalga- mated Co.,, but Mr. Madison denied the rumor and at the same time re- fused to say anything beyond what could be ascertained from the public records as to the recording of the deeds. Now the whole matter has leaked out through d person who was assisting ln buying up the shares of the Amazon. Butte under statement that if the property was not disposed of another assessment would surely have to be made to meet some cur rent expenses. The ground so far se- cured covers somewhere in the vicinity of 400 acres, and is regarded as being right in line with the rich ore bodies opened up in the East Butte within the past few months. It is claimed that engineers of experience have been at work for many weeks eXamin- ing the ground recently secured and that they have reported that there IS no question that the ore veins extend far to the east. The AmazonB Butte mine has also been explored and the opinion expressed that there is no question that only money to carry the shaft to greater depth is required to open up some rich ore bodies. All the ground sought has not yet been se- cured and it may be late this fall or next spring before any attempt is made to develop the properties by the North Butte.
