Helena, Sept. 5.-Samuel J. (Uncle

for the democratic nomination for
governor at the recent primary, but
who failed to make the grade in that
race, viii be a candidate Of the far
mer-laLor party for lieutenant COVER
nor in he general election, unless he
declines % permit his name to go on
the ballots.
Under the "writing-in" privilege
Mr.. Hampton was made the nominee
of the farmer-labor organization for
lieutenant governor, that fact being
brought out in the canvass of the cleo
ton returns by the state canvassing
board Friday.
Sheridan County, where the heavi-
est farmer-labOr vote was cast, gave
Hampton 167 votes for lieutenant gov
ernor and it is understood in Helena
that this vote was the result of a de-
liberate movement engineered by some
of the farmer-labor leaders. Wether
it was done with the sanction Of
Hampton is net known here.
VOTE TOTAL
UNKNOWN.
The total vote for Mr.. Hampton has
not yet been ascertained for the rea-
son that the clerks in the office of the
SECRETARY ofs state who are engaged
in tabUlating the scattering vote are
considerably behind the progress
which has been made by the state
board in .canvassing the returns of the
regularly nominated candidates as
shown by the county abstracts.
1t has also been demonstrated that
through this "writing-in" method, the
democrats have been provided with
candidate for clerk of the supreme
court, for which no filing had been
made prior to the primary.
This candidate is L. E. Chopuette, of
Havre, who received about 200 votes,
insuring him nomination. That Mr..
ChOquette will accept the nomination
and make the race for election is evil
dent, as it is understood here that
stickers bearing his name were issued
from Havre for use in the primary.
MCKAY
MAKES CLAIMS
John Mckay, the former socialistic
state senator from Sanders county,
who filed fer the democratic nominal
ton for congressman from the first
district, claims to have received the
nomination on the farmer-labor ticket
for that Office, although defeated for
the democratic nomination.
Tabulation of the scattering vote
has not reached a stage which will
prove his nomination, but Mckay, who
was in Helena, Friday, endeavoring
vainly to get a seat in the party con-
vention, states that he received about
100 votes which would give him the
nomination. Mckay states that he
abandoned his campaign for the demo
cratic nomination about six days be-
fore the primary and thereafter de-
voted his efforts to obtain votes on tho
farmer-labor ticket.
The canvassing board on Friday
completed the checking of the alb
5 stract from various counties, with tn,
exception of those from Cascade, Car
ben and Sweet Grass counties, which
have not been received.

STEEL ORDERS CLIMB RAPIDLY Estimate $9, ,O00,O 900 Placed In Last Few
 Days

Rail orders have been placed during the past five days with steel workers in all districts totalling over S9,OOO,OOO, according to statistics obtained here Tuesday.
 This record is considered the bes. that has taken place in the past several months and indicates that the railroads that have been hesitating about buying have decided that nothing is to be gained by further delays in placing their 1925 requirements. The orders in volving the above sum were placed with the Bethlehem, Illinois Steel and Tennessee company, and includes the G2,0O0 tons of the Louisville and NasL- vile as announced here Tuesday morn ing.
 Asa further indication of the buying movement it was announced also that the International Great Northern rail road has placed an order with the Tennessee company for 7,500 tons of rails aud that the Manchurian rail ways have indicated that an order for 5,200 tons will be given the Tennessee company during the next few days. :.
 The rail mills of the East have shown an increase durnig the past few weeks of between fifteen and twenty per cent over the schedule of the summer. And while the Birmingham plants are operating at 100 per cent. the betterment of conditions in the east finds reflection in this district.

BRYAN BUGABOO IS SET FORTH
 BY J. W. WEEKS
It's Coolidge Or Charles w. Says Secretary In
 Radio Speech
lRx Associated Press l

NEW YORK, Oct. 21.-Declaring in a radio address here tonight that the balloting on November will result either in the election of President Coolidge or the election being thrown into congress, Secretary Weeks pre- dicted that in the latter event Charles w. Bryan, the democratic vice presi- dential candidate, would be President by a coalition of democrats and radi- cal clements in ts,e Senate.
 The voters of the country therefore the war secretary urged, are confronted with a choice between the two men.
 "The voters know what the Presi- dent is doing" Mir. Weeks said. "His record speaks for itself. The voters know that President Coolidge is man of common sense, calmness, high chai acter. courage and honesty. They know that he will give them the honest and efficient administration they demand.
 Known As Brother
 "Very few voters know anything about President Coolidge's principal op- ponent, in this campaign, Charles w. Bryan. To the vast majority of the voters he is known only as the brother of William Jennings Bryan.
 Tt has been said that Mir. Davis, the democratic candidate for the presidency, personally selected MT. Bryan as his running mate in order to secure the supposedly powerful support of the William Jennings Bryan element of the Democratic party to whom Mir. Davis was not acceptable and to nullify as much as possible the effect of the bit ter attacks made against him in the convention by William Jennings Bryan. This statement has never been denied.
 MT. Bryan's position on national is sues is unknown because he has not participated in national political dis cussions; in fact he has hardly done so in this campaign. Although a candi- date for the vice presidency, the demo- cratic campaign managers are keeping him very much in the background. They have not permitted him to speak in the general industrial section of the east, which was called enemy territory by William Jennings Bryan during one of his campaigns. The democratic cam paign managers are apparently unwill- ing to take the chance of letting Charles W. Bryan arouse into active opposition the unpopularity of the Bryan brothers, in these sections"
 Holding that through their 28 years of political and business association, the minds of the vice presidential candi- date and his brother must be assumed to have been one on importan political issues," Mir. Weeks reviewed the para mount issues upon which the latter has conducted his three presidential cam paigns. His defeat in each of these campaigns, the secretary asserted, shows that "there has never been a man in public life of this country as persis- tently and consistently on the wrong side of great public issues as William Jennings Bryan and his brother, Charles W. Bryan"

appointments would be made tomorrow and that the investigation would be under way by Thursday.
 More Deaths Feared
 Twelve men injured in the explosion still are under treatment at the naval hospital, four of the sixteen brought from the cruiser having died after ar- rival. Practically all are suffering from face burns and the doctors in charge describe such burns as particularly serious because of the danger that the victims have inhaled smoke or flames, in which case pneumonia is likely.
 Several of the patients complained of hoarSness during the day and this symptom was regarded as unfavorable. None of the men are out of danger, 1t was stated. some had their eyebrows and eyelashes burned off and it was feared their sight might be affected.
 The Trenton was practically un- damaged by the explosion, officers de clared today after an inspection visit.
 Lieut.. John Arthur Sedgwick, Win throp, Mass, who rescued two of his shipments when he and five others were hurled overheard by the blast, insisted upon regarding his injuries lightly. He is burned about the face and head and is suffering from a sprained wrist.
 Tt was little hell, that's what it was" the officer declared in comment ing on the explosion. There was fire and smoke everywhere and I thought everybody on the ship would be burned. But the men were looking out for their mates. There was no everybody for himseIf in that gang of real men,

TRADE OUTLOOK
 FOR ENGLAND
 DECLARED GRAVE
Pearson Paints Sorry Pic ture For Coming
 Winter
lBy Associated Press)

CdlCAGO, OcI. Al.-OHdI1cS O' Pearson of Liverpool, member of the wartime allied purchasing commission, told the members of the Institute ot American Meat Packers today that the trade outlook in England flor the com ing winter is grave"
 He cited statistics to show that when he left home a month ago, There were unofficially 100000 unemployed, and unfortunately, those figures are mount ing weekly as the winter advances"
 ''With these figures of unemployment before you," Mir. Pearson continued, you do not want to be told that trade is bad in fact, the outlook for the coming winter is grave. Financially, England has made great sacrifices and since the war has become compar- atively poor nation. but only temporar- fly, we hope, as I believe our recupera- tive powers will again make good.
 Taxes Halt Trade
 'The greatest hindrance to trade in England is the crushing taxation, which is a legacy from the war. Any one earning $10,O0O yearly pays from 2S to 30 per cent of it back in state taxa tion alone. In addition, his city or mu- nicipal rates and taxes are practically 75 per cent of the full amount of his rent, so when you take office and home into consideration, you can imagine what this means"
 Experience has proved to the meat packing industry the wisdom of talk ing the public into it's confidence c.. r. Swift, vice president of Swift and company, said in presenting his report as chairman of the committee on pub lie relations.
 How Regards Public
 The report pointed out that until re- cent years the packing industry had not attached as much importance to it's rela- tions with the public as it does to- day, owing to the fact that the indus try was growing rapidly and attention was directed to more pressing prob lens.
 F. N. Wentworth told the institute that "the livestock industry is enter ing a phase of diminished production, a markedly different situation than has existed since the war. We have just closed two years of the heaviest hog runs on record @nd are just beginning to feel the diminished runs of cattle"
 Oscar G. Mayer of Chicago was elected president of the institute at to- days session. succeeding Charles r. Herrick of Chicago, who had held that post for two years. Others elected to office include: Treasurer. John T. Agar, Chicago; directors. Mir. Herrick, E. A. Cudahy, Jr.. of Chicago, G. F. Swift, of Chicago, W. H. White, IT,, of Atlanta. and F. Edson White of Chi cago. Thomas F. Wilson of Chicago was reelected chairman of the institute plan commission.
