MONTANA BATTLES
TODAY POR RIGHT
TO RULE HERSELF
Equipped it last with the power to achiwe .their political freedoni, the
people of Montana today do battle with the "invisible government" for t
control of the commonwealth.
Upon the success today of popularly-initiated laws depends in no small i
degree the future delfiire of the state,; for by their treatment of these measin
urea the himen peple of Montana will show whether or not misgovernmlnt o
in the past has.schooled them into sufficient distrust of the clever fabrica

the invisible government has spread misinformation about the initiative v
measures into every corner of the state. The fight has been backed by all V
the wealth of a powerful business combination, and has been guided with all
the craft of an organization that has ruled legislatures and sometimes the
courte of the state for decades. C
Self-government is the issue. If the voters bof Montana have learned by e
experience the worthlessness of the advice of Amalgamated newspapers n
they will pass consolidation, compensation, suffrage and farm loan measures
tomirrow eand .by so doing will show their ability to use against a power- C
fuli enemy the powerful weapon. provided by the Initiative and Referendum
law.
Pearless, uncontrolled,; .fficient university; justice to injured working
men; the vote of the voiceless half of the state; financial help for the farm
er-these are the things the people of Montana may give themselves today
if they will;. these. are the things the invisible government ~a fighting.

GERMANS MAKE SACRIFIC ES ALL IN VAIN
NO APPRECIABLE ADVANCES BY INVADERS
London, Nov. 2.-The grand vizier of de
Turkey has apologized on behalf of th
his government for the warlike opera- Il
tions of the Turkish fleet under Ger
alan commanders in the Black sea,
but it is said authoritatively this even- I
Ing-that the pOrte will have to go very
rnu6h further than this before the B
po*ers'of the triple entente will agree Il
to rembuire friendly relations with the ft
Ottoman government.
It was dlsclosed In a statement
issued by the French government this |.
evening that Turkey, in reply to a o
note presented by Russia, France and T,
Englatd 'on Friday last, agreed to bI
recall hli~ fleet from the Black sea; lo
but refutied to dismiss the German
officer' ffotr her ships and, that as IIt
was believed she could not maintain
a passive attitude without doing this, m
the ambassadors of the entente at
powers demanded their passports and/i
left Turkey. ,
There is every reas6n to believe
that, despite the apology of the grand
vizier, which, it is understood comes
from the peace party In the Turkish al
cabinet and may not be adhered to by
Enver Pasha, the minister of war, and
his young Turk followers. France, hC
RuSsia and Great Britain not only to
will demand reparation but will insist ti
that Turkey's entire fleet, or at any at
rate the cruisers Goeben, BreNla and
Hamidieh, be put out of commission it
until after the war, Turkey's security
being guaranteed in the meantime.
This would give Russia such su
periority in the Black sea that there a
would be no',danger of Turkish rains.

NORTHI SEA'S STATUS.
London, Nov. 2.-The entire North
sea has been declared ta military area
and merchant vessels entering it will
be exposed to the gravest dangers
from the mines and from the warships
which are searching vigilantly by
night and day for suspicious craft.
This action has been taken as a reply
to the laying of mines by the Germans
in the waters north of Ireland.
GERMANY AND GREA BRITAIN AGREE TO LET

demanded, which would mean that
those troops which have crossed the
Egyptian frontier must be withdrawn.
Bulgaria Prepares.
Meanwhile a report comes from
Constantinople of the seizure of an
other Russlsan steamer and also that
Bulgarla, which had been asked to
choose tlio side on which she would
fight, had commenced to mobilize her
second line troops.
The Germans continue to striko
hard blows on the allies' lines in their
endeavor to get through to the coast.
Thi.s far they have found every road
blocked, but apparently disregarding
losses, they continue to attack. Flood
ed areas, the Belgian army and the
British fleet, having barred their way
southward along the coast, the Ger
mans are now striking on a llte
stretching from Ypres in Belgium to
La Basso further south in France, but
seemingly with no more success.
Nothing Gained.
The stubbornness of the fighting
along this line may be gathered from
the fact that the town of Messines,
which the Germnns now occupy, has
been taken and retaken no less than
four times since lhtt Saturday. each
time with enormous losses in killed
and wounded.
Attacks also have been made along
the entire battle front as far east as
the Vosges region, but according to
the French report, with the Germans
haviig no more success than in the
northwest.
May End Soon.
The belief is growing here and it
also has been expressed by those re
turning from Belgium that the Ger
mans are making a last effort to get
through to the coast and that if it
fails they will fall back to positionl,
in central Belgium.
Although fighting is continuous on
the east Prussian frontier, in Poland
and in Otlllcia, there is no important
change in the situation and it believed
none is likely until the Russian
armies come up with the Germans who
Sare retiring from the Vistula toward
the Warthe river. On this river it
is considered likely that another big
battle will be fought.
In South Africa.
The backbone of the rebellion in
South Africa seems to be broken.
Colonel Marltz's commundes in the
north of the province have been com
pletely defeated. Several of the lead
ers and most of their men have been
captured. General Boyers is in flight
and General DeWet has opened nego
tiations for surrender, it is said.
The German cruiser, Karlsruheo has
added three more British steamers to
her list of captures in the Atlantic,
one of them, thie Van Dyke, being a
vessel of about 10,000 tons.
There were reports today of naval
activity in the straights of Dover. A
dispatch from Dover said a iritish
torpedo boat desti'oyer was observed
to be in action, apparently against a
German submarine.
ALLIED FLEET GOES

Amsterdam, Nov. 2.--(via London)
A dispatch from Constantinople says:
"According to reliable news an
Anglo-French fleet yesterday entered

miles west of Smyrna, where the small
Turkish gunboat Berak Reis and the
Turkish steamer Kanili-Adda were
anchored. The Commander of the
Turkish gunboat sank the steamer and
blew iup his own vessel, to prevent
their capture by the allied fleet."
In the same connection the state de
