This is from news story:
"In view Of the fact that the re-
publican convention is likely to be-
come a feroeious affair, the democrats
are getting into frame OF mlnd
where they believe it would be advan-
tageolis to them to have their conyen-
ton something of tea party, with a
cut and dried program. Such mar.
monious convention, they feel, would
impress the country that the demo-

largely for this reason that such des-
perate efforts are being made to avoid
a fight over the prohibition issue IN

Edwards will head the New Jersey dele

uncompromising opposition to the

Mr.. Bryan will be in the convention,

his state, as well as by the drys of
other states, that the eighteenth
amendment would in some way and
terms be brought under fire at San
Francisco.

shipment, tram having been built to
convey the rock from the mine to the
road that skirts Palmer lake, at the
foot of the mountain.
A shaft is being sunk on the Four
Metals, a silver lead property near
Nighthawk, and considerable bodies of
ore have been exposed. The Kaaba, an
other slver-lead property near Night
hawk, is also being prOspected. This is
an old discovery that has been worked
internationally for number of years,
but never before as Systematically as
at the present time. The owners are
preparing to ship ore to the smelter.
The old Lone Pine, now being develop
ed by new company, has good
showing of ore, and shipment from it
to the smelter is planned to start soon.
Finally, 75-ton flotation plant is
being erected at the Ruby, another old
prospect. This mill is designed to save

RETURNED TO LOOMS.

j. M. Richmond was in town from
Loomis Friday last, consulting ply
stefan as to his physical condition, and
naturally was feeling much relieved
to learn that there was nothing of an
organic nature to bother him. For
many many months Mr.. Richmond was
employed at ship yard in Seattle,
where he held a very responsible po-
sition, and commanded most attrac-
tive salary. A few months ago Mr..
Richmond's brother-in-law. Tom
Pierce, who owned store at LOOMS
in conjunction with John Melcher, Jr.,
died, and most of the property of the
deceased was left to his sister, Mrs.
Richmond. Now, Mr.. Richmond has
had much experience as a merchant,
and it was decided by him that it
would be more conducive to the gem
eral happiness of the family if he
could arrange to join them at the oil
home in Loomis, so he closed a deal
with Mr.. Melcher by which he came
into possession of the Loomis mercan-
tile stock. Mr.. Richmond is now in
charge of the store and will continue
to conduct the business henceforth. As
Loomis is still Ian excellent trading
point Mr.. Richmond will undoubtedly
do well with his new venture, espec-
tally as he is no stranger to the peo-
pie of that locality, as he conducted a
store in the old mining camp for "A
number of years prior to the time the
late Mr.. Pierce took over the business

Sheriff James P. Burns and his
deputies made strenuous and uneffect-
ual efforts Tuesday to get trace Of
Wendell Everett and Robert Albert
son, the two who escaped from the Cas-
were several facts developed that added
material interest to the story. The es-
cape had been planned and discussed in
the Jail Monday and that it was general
" known by the prisoners, 1t has devel-
oped. The prisoners who escaped had
even talked Of what they would do
after they had escaped, it being plan
ned that they would blacken their faces.
Everett and Albertson both were feder-
al prisoners and Everett was awaiting
transportation to the federal prison at
fenced for Is months for introducing
habit forming drugs on the Flathead In
dian reservation.
Slip Out Behind Jaiier.
The opportunity to escape came when
.Jailer Joseph McClintock went to the
Jail to arrange for feeding them. There
were nine in the big pen and when he
opened the door and went in he was
asked to close window which it was
claimed the prisoners could not reach.
: He complied with the request and that
took him across the room from the
| door which remained unlocked while his
back was to it, giving the two who
| sought it the opportunity to get out.
They had previously taken their shoes
off so they were able to slide out quiet
| ly and were gone when the jailer got
through looking after the window.
The story of Tony Stipech, the trusty
| who claimed to have been assaulted by
the escaping prisoners, was substantial
ed so far as the use Of the bottle in
the assault was concerned. for there
were half dozen or more bottles avail.
| able for that at the point where he
| claims to have been slammed over the
head when he tried to head off the Jail
delivery.
Seen Running West.
It has been established that Everett
and Albertson ran west through Third
| alley north until they crossed Third
street and then passed through private
property, probably going between the
home of f. H. Cooney and that of DR.,
