For Clerk Supreme Court JOHN T. ATHEY For Railroad Commissioner E. A. MORELY While some of the impatient had began to despair of president Taft to accord the race the recognition which they expected he gives to them one of the very richest plums at his command in the appointment of W. H. Lewis of Boston as assistant attorney general. Chairman Waite of the State Central Committee is conducting a winning campaign and the election of the Republican State ticket is assured. Vote for Theodore Brantley for Chief Justice of the Supreme Court. We note a Republican meeting called for Wednesday night at the old Elks' hall for the colored Republicans with the usual refreshment appendage. It is also called by the Republican club. Inquiry fails to reveal just who composes this club or its officers. Now we have no objection to anybody calling a meeting and furnishing whatever they want rake-off and all; but if they do they should come out in the open. No meeting looks good to us called under cover, with a delicate hesitancy in saying who is calling and responsible for the same, now we confess as well as we are acquainted that we know of no Republican Club extant. But we will bide our time and find out who it is that constitutes themselves as the colored Republican Club. Work and vote for Albert L. Holter for the legislature. At any rate, with Walton to elect as Constable, the colored voters must avoid splitting up infactions, Independents, Insurgents and Regulars must all pull together. J. H. CARMICHAEL FOR COUNTY COMMISSIONER J. H. Carmichael the republic an candidate is the logical candidate to support for County Commissioner for the 6 year term. Four years ago he served a short term in that position and gave such satisfaction that his constituents were much pleased at his nomination by the republican county convention and are giving to him a loyal support, he is one of the foremost business men of the county and holds large interests. He will no doubt be elected and serve the people even more faithful for the 6 year term than for the short term. The masses of the people recognize in him a safe and reliable man who will in every way guard the interests of all the people and will give to him a united support so that his election will be assured beyond preadventure. Dr. B. V. McCABE FOR CORONER For Coroner of Lewis and Clark county, Dr. B. V. McCabe should receive a hearty support from all classes. He will play no favorites in that position, he is eminently qualified and the people are fortunate in having such a man who is aspiring for this place. Since practicing his profession in this city he has acquired an enviable practice and along with his paying practice he has went to the relief of many who were not able to pay for medical service, all of which shows the broad spirit of the man. The people at large will not fail to appreciate these qualities and there is no question of his triumphant election at the polls on November 8th. THOS. H. SPRATT FOR ASSESSOR. For County Assessor, Thos. H. Spratt who has so faithfully served the people as Auditor for the past four years is the Republican candidate. We have known Mr. Spratt ever since we have been publishing this paper and know him to be friendly to the progress of all the people and there should be no hesitation in giving to him a hearty support. Billy Wheaton, Republican candidate for County Clerk is one of the wide awake, hustling young Republicans of Lewis and Clark county, and the people could not lend their support to more worthy man for this position. ALBERT L. HOLTER FOR REPRESENTATIVE Albert L.. Holter republican candidate for the house of represntatives is a native Montanan, born in this city, in the year of 1874, he is a representative of the young element of the party and is in every way worthy of the support of all classes of the people. He is a representative of business interests and being reared here is thoroughly acquainted with the needs and wishes of all the people. He is conservative to a high degree and liberal in his views and we predict for him as a lawmaker to make in that position an enviable record. Mr. Holter is a plain straight forward business man easy of approach and the masses will ap preciate that same and give to him a loyal support all along the line. There is no question that with a legislative ticket which will have to vote for a United States Senator where we should line up, in this cast it is as Douglas said, the republican party is the ship and all else is the sea. Helena, Montana, Friday, October 28 1910 A. J. Walton for constable is receiving assurances of a strong support from all classes. There is no question of his election everybody get in line. Cap. Adamson maintains his big lead in the race for Constable and there is no question of his election. It is Adamson and Walton in a walk. M. L. Higgins for his second term as sheriff is making a winning fight and no doubt will be re-elected by a handsome majority. BILLINGS NOTES The campaign is raging hot and the colored voter is much in demand. Mrs. Theodore Carman has been very sick with the pneumonia at the residence of Mr. and Mrs. J. B. Reynolds under the skillful care of Dr. Chapelle and the careful nursing of Mrs. Reynolds is now convalescent. Work and vote for Albert L. Holter for the legislature. COLORED AMERICANS GAIN 14.397 ON U. S. PAYROLL Republicans Poine to Army of Negroes They Have Given Places— High Offices for Black Men. Claim Credit for Emancipation and Denounce Democrats as Unfriendly to the Colored Race. A direct appeal for the Negro vote in the coming Congressional election is made in the Republican textbook, mainly on the gorund that the party in power has shown "justice" to the Negro by appointing him to Federal offices. This discloses for the first time the extent to which Negroes have been given Government preferment. There are nearly 15,000 Negrose employed by the Government. They total salaries aggregating $8,255,761. Eleven are officials of the Diplomatic and Consular Service; 11 are officers in the United States Army; nearly 3,000 are employed in the Postal Service. The number employed in departments in Washington is 5,768,703 of whom are in the Treasury, 571 in the Government Printing Office and 421 in the Department of the Interior.

Says Republicans Freed Negroes The campaign book quotes extracts from the speeches of acceptance of Taft and Sherman to show that they "stand squarely on the equal justice plank," and in discussing the attitude of the Republican party toward the Negro the campaign managers say: "Prior to the advent of Abraham Lincoln and the Republican party about 4,000,000 Afro-Americans were held in bondage in the Southern States, then, as now, controlled by the Democrats, and when the Republican party elected Lincoln President thus setting the stamp of disapproval upon the Democratis desires, these Democratic Southern States seceded from the Union and attempted to set up a Confederacy, with human slavery as the chief cornerstone. "The Republican party determined that the Confederacy should be destroyed; that the Union should be preserved; and true to its principles and in keeping with his own declarations, the Great Emancipator struck the shackles from the limbs of the bondmen. Following the freedmon of the slaves came their enlistment in the army and navy, and by this act the names of 200,000 Afro-Americans were added to the honor roll. The leaders of the Republican party, feeling that their work was far from completed, framed and passed the Thirteenth, Fourteenth and Fifteenth amendments and the States ratified their action, thus making slavery impossible and confirming the civil and political rights of the Afro-American people.

Education North and South BUTTE NOTES T. J. Walker is a prima-a-favorite in the race for County Attorney. Charley Jones is a rustler around the political' headquarters. Quite a bunch came over from Anaconda to see the female minstrels and the big cake walk Quite a number of our people are for ex-Mayor MacGinnis, Roy S. Allen and H. Galloway for representatives and senator. THE FEMALE MINISTRELS PLEASE The Georgia Female Minstrels under the management of J. E. Taylor assisted by J. C. Brown at the auditorium on last Thursday evening were pronounced by all a success. They were greeted by quite a crowd and each number received a hearty round of applause. Worthy of special mention was the singing of Miss Savada Brown who seems to have had past experience in her favor, her voice was fine as well as her aptitude to stage work, she was heartily encored. Also Gertie Malone was a surprise to all with an excellent voice. She was also encored. J. E. Taylor proved himself the primer comedian of the northwest and his work all around was of a high order. The chorus was good and all acquitted themselves with credit. While the cake walk feature could be much improved, the couple Mr. and Mrs. Lewis fairly won the honor of winning the cake. Deacon Short Fenter was on hand looking over his flock he has not preferred charges yet, however. POLITICAL ADVERTISEMENTS. The articles under this heading are paid political write-ups. and open to all who care for newspaper space. ROY S. ALLEY FOR REPRESENTATIVE Roy S. Alley is one of the broadguaged citizens who is making a winning campaign for representative from this county. He was born in the state of Nebraska in 1876. And by hard work he attained the place which he occupies today as one of the leading legal lights of this section. He believes in fair play to all and those who know him are enthusiastic in giving to him their support and have enlisted for him quite a number of our people and predict for him a splendid success. FOR REPRESENTATIVE The colored voters of Butte will recognize in John Macginnis as the only Mayor which Butte has had in recent years that has accorded them recognition, during the time which he was mayor there was at all times on the pay-roll of the city a colored man. And believing in the principles to support those who helps the race, he is receiving a hearty support from the colored voters of this city. H. O. GALLEWAY FOR SENATOR There is no man in the whole county of Silver Bow more popular than H. O. Galloway, who is a leading candidate for the state senate, he also is receiving a strong support for senator. Ike Hayes, the old war horse says he is a sure winner and all the boys are lining up for him, he is broadgauged and progressive and will be among the winners. FOR COUNTY ATTORNEY OF SILVER BOW COUNTY Thos. J. Walker regardless of party lines is receiving a strong support for re-election to the office of County Attorney from all classes of the people of this county. He is a man of the people and has come to his present station the hardest way having worked in the mines and smelters in this vicinity. 25 of the 33 years which he carries he has spent in this city going to our public schools, graduating with honors, he was born in the Keystone state of Pennsylvania in 1877. He took a cours of law in the university of Virginia where he also graduated with high honors; was elected and served Silver Bow in the Lower House in 1905 and served as chief deputy under prosecuting attorney Healy from 1905 to 0% when he was elected as County Attorney and is now serving his first term. He has filled the position with signal ability and made an enviable record as the prosecuting officer of Silver Bow county. He has been fair to all classes and has not in any manner stopped to persecute with him it has always been a square deal for everybody and no one of whatever nationality, color or creed have had cause to complain of Tom Walker's conduct of the important office of County Attorney and as a consequence he is receiving a hearty support from all sources regardless of party affiliations.

Squier, acting ebief signal officer, are authority for the statement that efforts to obtain funds from congress at the pext ses ‘sion, for an equipment of aeroplanes, would be doubled. This decision has just been reached, following the conclusion of the signal office that the aeroplane in {ts present state “Is recognized by every power to oF Yi eer ; ee a erat HEU be a satisfactory complement of its military and naval services.” ‘The amount wanted will be $500,000, according to Major Squier, although this estimate may be increased at conferences to be held in November between Secretary of War Dickinson ‘and Secretary of the Navy Meyer.

It is an im strument of offense and defense, and, disassociating {t from militarism, ite ‘good qualities and services will be of untold benefit to humanity. “Just at present, while congress has designated the signal office as having authority over aeroplanes and dirigt- bles, we have neither the funds nor the required number of men for an organized aerial corps. “We shall again submit a roquest for an appropriation, and {f congress considers {t favorably we shall not lose much time in bringing ourselves to the front. Aeroplanes have changed in mechanism since two years ago, if not in general contour, and those of today are vastly superior to the ones ot the recent past. There is less guesswork about traveling in them.” Asked about the possibilities of fir ing or dropping projectiles from an aeroplane in flight, especially at a high altitude, Major Squier sald: “Byidence so far in our possession shows that the chances are favorable to the aeroplane.

They clinched the big pennant fast Sunday, seven runs to two for the Chicago Nationals, and it was a. big overflow crowd that saw it, Five games Lave been played, and the 'easterners took four of them by outbatting, outficlding and outrushiug the Veteran Chicagoans. ‘They got the ‘*jump’” at the start, and although Chi cago punctuated their program with a defeat yesterday, it really did not change the situation a bit The Philadelphians were due. They won the American league banner in 1902, but there was no world’s serics that year. Five years ago the New York Nationals were too strong for them, So in this year of grace it was not on the eards that they were to be denied, Big Money for Players. ue the series was not the most profitable ever played, it helps to’ sim: plify the high cost of living problem confronting even such heroes as the Philadelphians, to say nothing of the Chicagoans, with winter eoming on. The players’ share of the money amounted to $79,071. Of this 60 per cent, or $47,443 goes to the winners, and $31,628 to the losers. As there are 23 players on each team eligible to par ticipate, each of the Philadelphians i entitled in round numbers to $2062, and each Chieagoan to $1375, ‘The players shared in today’s re ceipts by courtesy of the management of the two clubs, who conceded that i today’s receipts should be larger that those of any previous day the smalles receipts should be eredited as aceruing to the fifth day, and the Sunday receipt accredited to the fourth contest, the last in which the players had a financia share, The total receipts for the series wer: $173,980. The two clubs get $38,75: apiece, while $17,398 goos to the na tioual commission. The total attend ance was 125,219 persons. Coombs the Hero. ‘The performance of Coombs in piteh: ing and winning three of a five-game series is probably unique. He had but one day’s rest between the second and third games and but three days inter vened between the third contest and today’s exhibition, He had better con. trol today than in the previous eon tests and foiled the opposition batters when hits meant runs. Brown, for Chicago, pitehed excellent ball, except in the locally disastrow: eighth, and the holocaust of that inning was by no means entirely his fault, The day was bright and the weather of the Indian summer variety. Ground rules, as usual, were necessary. Chieago’s failure in the series ean be laid to one eause—the weakness uf the pitehers. Facts of the Series. Games won—Philadelphia, 4; Chi cago, 1.

KIDNAPED CHILD REVEALS STORY Boy Caught in Omaha Compelled t | Walle Across Several States ‘With Captor. Dewey Victor Wellman, 11-year-old son of a widow in Seattle, Wash., who was kidnaped from his home on July 16 last, was found by the poliee in Omaha Saturday. The little boy was with H. Schuman, a Seattle eontraetor, who, the boy says, took him from his home. According to the boy's story, the pair walked all the way from Nevads to Omaha. Sometimes they were hun- gry, but despite the Ind’s pleadings, Schuman refused to take him home. Schuman was eaught here when he applied to the Associated Charities for work. He confessed stealing the child. ‘The boy himself told the story of his capture. “He said he had gone for a boat ride with the man, whom he had soon on the street many times. They got in the boat and Schuman refused to re turn. With tears streaming down his face, the little fellow told how he had ‘tramped over miles and miles of dusty roads. They would stop at a farmhouse and Schuman would work a while and then move on, he said, Finally they Jeame to Omaha, The pair will be taker to Seattle at nee and the ehild re stored to his mother, KING APPLE'S GREAT POWER.

America’s air army is ready for busi- ness. Jobn Ryan, son of Thomas F. Ryan, founder and commodore of the United States aeronautical reserve, ia a signed statement says: “*We have 3,500 men, situated in every state in the Union, enlisted in the aeronautical reserve to act as scouts in time of battle, Officers of the army and navy have been assigned to eo- operate with him in the organization of an aeronautical reserve corps, “The aeroplane will eventually make war s0 full of horrors, by its inevit- ably increasing power to destroy forti- feations, as well as ships and towns, that it will be one of the greatest means of bringing about peace among nations.

The reserve intends to put its services and resources at the disposal of the government in times of war. «Up to date very little has been done in this country ‘toward testing the value of the aeroplane in naval war fare, Perhaps this has been delayed somewhat on account of the strenuou: efforts that are being made to produce more efficient vehicles.

A. nation-wide scandal may result from the manner in which the cor- poration tax law has worked out. With the official announcement by the treas- ury department at Washington that the total paid in as the result of the tax is only & trifle more than $27,000,000 Wall street financiers are convineed that an extremely clever job in hiding profits has been carried on by somebody. ‘This federal tax is 1 per cent of the net yearly income of a corporation tax from all sources over and above $5,000—exclusive of all amounts re- ceived by it as dividends on the stock of other corporations subject to the tax. * Two Biggest Payments. The two biggest concerns in the country, the Standard Oil company and the United States Steel corporation, ave paid into the government more than $2,000,000, or about one-thirteenth of the entire tax. This, the financiers say, is preposter ‘ous, inasmuch as many of the big eom panies have admitted total earning of 7 per cent or better on their capita! ization in their reports to their stock holders, The prediction made in fluancia circles is that as the result of the ap parent evasion of the tax law, the lav will be strengthened by eougress u the near future so that the treasury de partment may readily detect those why fail to meet the requirements.
