never been sen there or elsewberu. The
Hlomeltako company went in to win on
thl same plan on which the Anaoollda
cormpany"s capital campaign is being
fought. It was a boodlo election
ha ,lle and fraud. The onlmestake com
ipnll'a dander was up and it spent
money aitli a lavish hand. Whisky

Ipign till the c'lLe. (langl of meni were
blrnlght in froi all direotions and

Th'lhro was in registration law and the
Ihi sty le of balllots wre used, so there
S:Ra nothing to prevent Illegal voting.
'IliosT 1tiuteilers hlid oon organised by
the iiompaniy's agente, and their price
IedI lrong in advance. They came in
ginge aid they voted in gangs. They
were ranged in lin nat the ballot box,
'oie aglen'!t IIof the company givnlg out

The Co:&pRIl~qtlny' luiyoa 1uwore ranged
In liue in the samle Iunnr, haid thoir
tiLckots handed to the in ,y it comlpany
boss, while another baes stood at the
baihot box to mauko overything suira.
Not only were the company's men and
gnil&e of illegal voters from outsidtle
poiuts managed in thus manner, but
every man residing in the distriot whose
vote 'ould be b ought received the price
and delivered his vote under the inspec
tion of a company agent.
It was the most shanieful pectncle
over witnessed at an Anmer:can election.
'There was no concealment no preten
etn that votes were not being bought
and illegally cast for the Ilomestuke
compuny. Rufilans and rowdies crowded
the voting places and any protest
against the outrages there being per
petrated was at the risk of one's life.
The result was an overwhelming ma
jority for the Hlomestake company
inmore votes being cast than the entire
number of men, women and children
living in the whole district.
I'romn this description one can form a
faint conception of the kind of power
the llomestake company is-a power
identical with that which is now seeking
to gain control of Montana's capital.
This is the same outfit under a different
name. In the background sits the
same Jas. 3. laggin pulling the strings
and putting up the boodle. The plan
of campaign is the same so far as the
conditions admit. Boodle, booza, and
bulldozing are its chief elements-but
the greatest of these is boodle. Furtu
nntoly, however, for the independenoe of
Montana, the Hlaggin corporation hasn't
got the strangle hold upon Montana
that was then held upon the Black
Hillls section; and the decent citizenship
of Montana has become so fully aroused
to the significance of the groat corpora
tion's attempt that the danger of it
succeeding is now practically past. A
fair vote and an honest count will
assure the result that Montana's capi
tal will never be turned over to the An
aconda company.
THE2 NEW CALAMAI PARTY.
Poor old g. o. p.! From being a party
of ideas and progress, formulating meas.
ures and carrying them into operation,
it has settled down in its last days into
a party of calamity. Its orators are go
ing up and down the country offering
no solution of existing problems, no
moeasures of tinance, no relief from the
burdens that oppress the people.
I'rom llarrilon and McKinley and
RIoed down to Weed and Largent and
Mantle they are a lot of dismal croakerd
and calamity wallers. Tom Reed made
a speech in New York the other night
in which he dodged the silver question,
sneered at democratic efforts at tarif
reform, and played tLo buffoon generally.
But in all his two-hours speech, he did

AN.t( oNDI)%£Ita IUTO.NISm.
That Anaconda feels the desperate
ness of lcr situation finds further proof
in the fact that it has been necessary to
enll to h lr assistance the ohief of the
l'irtIkrton detective agency of Chlcago.
This individual has been sunlmoned in
hIt haute to take I eronal charge of the
forso of l'.nkertons who hare been do
ing service for the Anaconda oommlttee
for the past three months. lie bha just
arrived in Montana, and his first work
will be devoted to secrot conference
with the Anaconda committee. As
aould naturally be iuferred from the
position he bolds, he is the smoothest
of the smooth.
The indopendent voters of Montana
will naturally speculate somewhat upon
the meaning of the injection of Pinker
tonism into the capital election. They
know well enough ahsat these men hare
been doing here thus far-that they
rhav acted as Anaconda capital sple
to mark the friends and the opposer, of
\Anaconda. yit it will be found there
was a further purpose--to spy upon the
actions of individuals in order to gather
material for capitalistic blackmail
Many of the best men of the state who
are earnestly opposing Anaconda from
patriotio principles will hear from these
imported thugs before election day.
They will find that their business con
dition has been nosed Into, and if there
is any weak spot Anaconda will know of
it and be prepared to force them to
terms if such a thing is possible. They
will find that their walks and their talks
have been spied upon and that Anacon
da has in its possession material which
by the skillful manipulation of the
Pinkertons can be made to appear dan
gerous matter to reach the home elrcle
all of which can be avoided by ceasing
to openly oppose Anaconda's game.
And when election day has come it will
be found that the Pinkertons-largely
reinforced from the slums of Chicago
will be on hand at the polls to help
carry to full fruition the Anaconda com
pany's assault upon the independence
of the voters, the purity of the ballot,
and the honesty of the count.
This is evidently the brilliant finish
which the Anaconda crowd has been
promising for the wind up of the capital
campaign-a Pinkerton finish. The
people of Montana have heard of Pink
ertonism before, though very tet of
them have had any personal experJlnoe
with it. But they know pretty well
what it means. They have read of it at
Homestead and elsewhere on occasions
when it was desirable to corporations to
prevail with might over right-occasions
where the law was too decent to force
the ends which corporation greed de
mended. Yes, Montana people are pretty
well informed on Pinkertonism, and
they rate the ruffians who practioe it as
properly belonging to the class which
thirty years ago in this country gained
a precarious livelihood by holding up
stage coaches and in kindred pursuits.
Montana applied n very vigorous remedy
for the cure of roadagentism and can be
depended upon to study up something
equally efficacious at the present day it
illmporte 1 thuglem becomes too annoy
ing to the rights of respectable people
anol espo.'ially if it attempts to interfere
with honest elections.

That is to say, the matter is held in
abeyance by the Anaconda Mining
company until athe the November elec
tion in Montana, when the shutdown
wail be ordered. There is no question
about this. The company is rapidly
shaping its affairs to that end. Word isi
already being passed around that a
stoppage of work may be neceesary,
"for a few days," in order to give oppor
tunity for making "repairs." Every
business man knows what that means,
and so do a great many worklogmen
who have learned by past sad experience
that the shutdown for the purpose of
regulating price is ua inevitable as
death.
\Wr note that the price of votes for
Anaconda is still quoted at $35O by the
Iutto Miner. This is the West Side
prico. There seems to be gross dis
oraminution against the East Hide in
this matter. Here in Helens, Anaconda
strikers are paid only $50) to $100 each.
Unless the East 8:dser combine and
strike, we do not see how they are go
ing to get as much money as the fellows
who vote for Anaconda in Butte.
WE suppose that merchants at Great
Falls who favor Anaoonda for the capi
tal do so because Marcus Daly and Mr.
Haggin would immediately establish
ompany stores in their town when the
refinery is built at the Falls.
Tiu Anaconda workers vaunting'y
boast that "the Czar has taken the sad
dle." We have no doubt of it, and he'll
take the brldle,the horse and the stable,
if he is not watched.
Ten Anaconda Standard's editorials
on the capital question for the last few
days have the the true ring to them. That
is to esy, they sound like a death
rattle.
