For Vice President CHARLES W. FAIRBANKS, of Indinoa. 810 PAPER HAS FLOPPED. Declaring that the democratic party is still dominated by William J. Bryan uJ hie followers, the Chicago Chron icle, the leading coueervative democrat ic pape, of the went, hae comeodt eqnarely for the republican national ticket. Un der the caption, “The Chronicle Repub lican,’* the following editorial an uonncement wan made: “When 1,000 men, roprceenting the democrats of the United Statee, most of them chosen with much difficulty ae representatives of what is called con •ervative democracy, permit a mere dem agogne to bully them into wrong doing, it must be that the demagogue k great er than the party. “Two-thirds of the delegatee to the national convention voted for Judge Parker on the first ballot —the man whom Mr. Bryan bad traduced for three months; the man whose friends Mr. Bryan had villified; the man who Mr. Bryan said should not be nominated and could not be elected. “When the cowardly committee repre senting these delegates brought in a platform which was silent on the money questiou, not one appeared in defense of elementary democracy. Mr. Bryan not only graciously permits the democratic party to name a candidate whom he has done hie best to defeat in advance, but be places him on e platform with a hole in it big enough to drop the entire party through. It is bad enough to have Mr. Bryan dominating radical democratic conventions. When Mr. Bryau is able to silence a ‘conservative’ democratic convention the siluvtion becomes intol erable. A mixture of William J. Bryan ism and David B. Hillism is unsapport ■ble. Bargain House ■f “The Chronicle is not in sympathy with Mr. Bryan’s ideas. For eight years it lias refused to believe that Mr Bryan’s ideas were acceptable to the real demo crats of the country. The result nt St. Louie appears to end the discussion. He and Hill are in control. He and Hill have named the ticket and made the platform. “A timid eastern democrat who fondly imagined that he could be nominated ae uu unknown hire been placed on the ticket with an octogenarian tree eilverite from West Virginia and supplied with a platform which amounts to an endorse ment of the platforms of Chicago and Kansas City. The populistic west and the reactionary south are again in alli ance, with a new leader, it is true, but with no change in principle and pur pose. The ticket bears the stamp of populism. There is not a plank in the platform wllfch was not modified by pop ulism. ‘‘The democratic party is attached to Bryaniem. It is subservient to Bryan. It has been persuaded against its natur al inclinations to nominate an unknown candidate whom Bryan hae antagonized, but it has permitted Bryan to do the rest. The democratic party is Bryan, and there is no reason to suppose that its triumph under the leadership of a man who voted twice for Bryan and free silver and boasted of it would be any thing else than a triumph for Bryan. Disagreeing fundamentally with this lender and his party in most things and agreeing with the republican party in the essentials of its,creed, the Chronicle dakes leave of the democratic party and allies itself with the republican. “As at present constituted and led, tho democratic party is a menace to ths peace, the prosperity and the integrity of the United States and their people. It has discarded democratic principles and taken up with the radicalism of the populists and socialists, and the ob structionism and cowardice of wreckers and .demagogues. No good can come of it. With a blank for a candidate and a blank for a platform it will become more aod more a contemptible inetru- FOR THE NEXT 6o Days our Bargains in FURNITURE will be unexcelled See Them y *.■ |Q ^FRENCH TRADING COMPAN Y# - HARLEM, IVIOIVT. ■pWtaUoo of Wil* ot dNna- "Tho (XttOaiolo believes that the re publican party, while not free of fault by any meana, offers the American people at this time the only prospect of efficient, intelligent and honeet government that is anywhere to be seen, and, so believing, it will do what it can to advance its principles and strengthen its candi dates.*’ A i,ooK of Bryan's pair has been sold soy $65. There are democrats who would give a good many times that sum for .what hair David B. Hill has left, with the sculp attached.

The Times is one of the brightest country papers in Mont ana, and lye are pleaeed to see it give such substantial evidence of prosperity.

Supposing he invested the money in Wall street—then his “cake” might be “dough,” and being a loafer, his kneads would drive him back to the bake shop. The News has been requested to call to call the pttention of cattlemen to tho tHfet that, whenever they desire to make a shipment, they should give ample notice of the time and place to a gov ernment inspected A shipment will not be permitted to go forward until the cattle shall have been inspected, at the j place of loading, by an officer of the bureau of animal industry and found free from all evidence of scab. It is ex pected that several inspectoes will be sent over the state at onoe. The ad dresses of those now in the state are probably known to the state veterinar ian. .

The offer is made to give SI,OOO worth of counterfeit bills for SSOO in good money. The claim is made that the bills are so near the real thing that treasury agents are puz zled to tell them from the genuine thing. Several of these letters have been re ceived in Harlem recently. From reports received recently in re gard to the shooting scrape at Rooky Point it eeems that the wounded cow boy, whoeo name yet remains a mystery, come into the saloon where Bill Brown and several balfbreed Indians were play ing poker and commanded them to throw-up thiir bunds, .which they all did. The cowboy got five dollars in sil ver from Brown and seventy cents from an Appraboe Indian. Before be could mount b's pony and ride away Brown went to a wagon, picked up a rifle and shot the ooa bey through the stomach. He was arrested and was acquitted later, and at the present lime it is reported that the cowboy will soon recover from his injuries The growth pf the Montana State fair has been phenomenal. Last year over 18,000 square feet were occupied for ex hibits ot fruit, horticultural and agri cultural products. Every inch of avail able space was taken. This year many people who exhibited last year have ask ed for more th in double the space, while counties making exhibits have asked for three times the space, and in one case, five limes. The indications are that the state fair of 1904 will be \nore than double of last year. The added space that is absolutely required has necessitated the erection of seven new buildings on the fair grounds, which are now being built. These comprise a cattle barn, 60x150 feet, which will accomodate 300 stallions; a sheep and swine shed, 30x126 feet, and an addition to the main exhibit hall, 40x132 feet, two stories. ✓ The Beet Beer in the city is Lorelei, a Montana production, at the Club Saloon.'
