LEE MANTLE OUT
FOR j. S. SENATOR

Senator Lee Mantle will be candi-
date for the United States senatorship
at the coming primaries on the repub-
lican ticket, providing an absolute veto
is not put on his present plans by his
physician, says the Anaconda Standard.
All of the plans to launch his boom
have been made by his admirers and in
answer to their reqnests for him to
enter the race he has told them that he
will enter the lists unless the condition
of his health prevents.
In urging his entry his advisors give
the following reasons:
Butte is the metropolis of Montana
and as such is entitled to one of the
leading offices. At present the United
States senators, the two congressman
and the governor are all from other
points. Mantle on account of his wide
acquaintance in Butte and throughout
the state would make an exceptionally
strong republican candidate. Mantle
has kept out of the warfare between
the progressives and the standpat ele-
ment. He would have a strong sup
port from BOTH
They urge that Senator Edwards can
not defeat Joe Dixon for the nomi-
nation in a straight two-sided fight,
and that the only way to defeat Dixon
IS to bring out some man like Mantle,
who can make stronger race than
either Dixon or Edwards.
The friends Of Edwards do not take
any stock in the claim that he cannot
beat the Missoula newspaper man, and
they say that they will welcome the
entry of Mantle into the race, as he
will draw from the same sources of
strength as Dixon and will make Ed
wards nomination certainty.
1t was eight years ago that Dixon
defeated Mantle for denomination as
the republican candidate. At that time
Ed Donlan was Dixon's campaign man.
ager and the forces that are now most
antagonistic to Dixon were the most
active in his election.
Time brings many changes in politics
and now these same forces, it is said,
would be glad to give Senator Mantle's
candidacy hearty backing.
With Edwards, Mantle and Dixon in
the race for the republican nomination
for United States senator and with Sen
ator Henry l.. Myers and Joseph Kirsch-
wing as the avowed candidates for the
democratic nomination, a lively contest
is promised in both the republican and
democratic primaries.
The contest of the democratic nomi-
lnees for lieutenant governor is devel-
oping also. The avowed candidates
now in the field are Lieutenant Gov
ernor Mcdowell, Senator P. M. Abbott
of Gallatin county and Judge Ayers
whose aspirations have been announced
by the Great Falls Tribune.
