Bryan. Whether today's visit by the great Commoner had anything of especial political significance or not, it gave the people here far no greater purpose than offering an opportunity to shake hands with old friends, and to discuss the problems, the colonel's visit here is an event. For Butte this man came here in the old days, when his partisans were proud of his friendship and glad of an opportunity to give him their support. No man, not even a president himself, had a greater reception in Butte than Bryan had on the occasion when Bryan, the candidate, was greeted by cheering thousands. Bryan hasn't forgotten that day, and Butte hasn't forgotten Bryan. It has been charged oft times that Bryan's politics in recent years have changed. It had been charged that with increasing prosperity his old views were not as they were, that he had traded his political place and for dollars at the spirit of the Forum. Perhaps there is little in those times; for Bryan is a rich man. But if one were to judge by things he said in Butte today the change has been greatly exaggerated by his political opponents. To all appearances he is very much the Bryan of old—a chaser after plutes and still charging, as hard as possible, yet exerting a tremendous influence in his party and still remaining a charm all his own. The esteem of Mr. Bryan will be vastly greater than now apparent before he can come to Butte without receiving evidence of an abundance of hearty good will. --- ## EXPLAINING THE UNEX-PLAINABLE Colonel Roosevelt in June, 1911, wrote a letter to a newspaper man in which he made it very clear he had not pledged his support to any candidate for the office of president. At the same time he also stated that he would not be a candidate for the office in 1912 and declared that he felt certain that statement which he had often repeated. Soon after Colonel Roosevelt announced his would-buy last month, The Washington Star printed a statement in which it was stated that as a result of being in communication with the White House, it had learned that President Taft had been assured of the support of Colonel Roosevelt, who had also assured Secretary that he would not be a candidate for the office. Last Saturday it coming to the ears of the stenographer concerned that two cabinet officers, Stimson and Stimson, had been reported to have said that he had given the assurance that he would not run this year, he stated that they said many things that were not true and had not been said. On Sunday a portion of a letter written last June by Roosevelt in which he stated he would not be a candidate in 1912, was sent out by The Associated Press. This letter was not followed by a statement from the Colonel that the Associated Press story doesn't seem to have put a different face on it. Yesterday the Associated Press sent out the full letter which appeared in this morning's Inter Mountain. It would be difficult to see how the com- plete better changes the situation in any way. The fact is that eight months before Colonel Roosevelt wrote that he would not be a candidate, not very he was close to the office. In that letter of June 27, last, he stated that he had said Secretary Taft, and given other assurances to others, "just he had always said," namely, that he would not be a candidate for 1912. Why, then, could not these cabinet officers, his closest advisors, told as they had told their chief, President Taft, that Roosevelt had given them assurances that he would not be a candidate? Why, indeed, when Roosevelt writes that he did that very thing. Yet on Saturday the Colonel at Oyster Bay referring to the statement that Secretary Stimson and others had not had that assurance, said: "They never said so. They never said so because they could not." A man who talks too much may be de-classed ultimately. We have seen Colonel Roosevelt in rang and again in very clear, formal statements in which he said that "under no circumstances" would he be a candidate for a presidential nomination for the presidency. His attempt now is made to appear that he meant nothing more than that he would not maneuver to be a candidate for a third consecutive nomination is puzzling, particularly as only last June he put in writing that he would not be a candidate for 1912 and that in so expressing himself he meant "just exactly what he had said always." The celebrated Julius letter proved nothing that was not already well known. It became evidence of the fact that Governor Wilson, now enjoying the good opinion of Colonel Roosevelt toward whom he now opposes, was at one time appeared to be too great a Democrat. Roosevelt then hoped the Puritan Leader would be "knocked into a cocked hat" for the good of the Democratic party and the Republic. Moreover, Governor Wilson did not deny that letter and Roosevelt himself is not trying to escape its consequences. The whole episode is worth a million dollars. Here we have a man who was once president, who without exception was the best known citizen in all the land, pledging himself to keep out of the great public race, only to break this pledge six months later, on the party's manufactured pressure so he may be said to be forced to do it. And now comes the spectacle of this really great man jumping wherever he is hit, and explaining away the unexplainable that he finds himself in. In his financial remarks the Colonel is no more successful than any other man in explaining the unexplainable. --- ## NOT OUT OF PLACE Still a farmers' institute in Butte is no more incongruous than a mining congress in Nome. Because its mining overdraws has to outpace every other industry is no reason why the farming industry should not assert itself in keeping and all the diversified lives that go with it. Indeed, we believe that farming in Montana is better than is generally known. Too high for certain parts of its area, and not as attractive to the act of progress to an extent little appreciated by those who have no actual knowledge of it, there are very many profitable side lines to farming also that cannot receive too high a premium treatment here. Butte leads in the production of dairy farms. Farming in Montana has not a few duties of importance; it appears that it goes garden stuff of a superior quality. One of the purpose of a farmers' organization in connection is to show the vantages of soil treatment in a particular location. Perhaps the most service of all will be the means of developing those lines of farming best adapted to this district. At least it must prove profitable to those who attend and hear the leading speakers, and this, the first institute held in Butte, should pave the way for others to follow. --- The fact that in June, 1911, a man will candidly say that he is not a candidate, and in February, 1912, he will accept the nomination, doesn't perhaps qualify him for anything more than nomination, but it at least puts him on the waiting list. --- Women lawyers of Massachusetts are seeking a change in the state constitution so they may act as notaries. Sure. A woman's oath of a notary would seem one of the essential elements of success. --- Two or three months ago Colonel Roosevelt wrote a Pittsburgh editor that he would support "any Republican who could carry the country." Mr. Taft and others had exactly the same way about it. --- The British public is beginning to feel that the hand that rules the cradle has much in common with the hand that rocks plate glass windows. --- In view of their performance, those British suffragettes should not expect to pay the suffrage in any well-regulated, sensible society. --- To the colonel of all out thoughts of political affairs, attention is again attracted to that unfortunate letter of June 27, last. --- While the endless chain is trying in any obvious direction, the British way it has been applied to revolution is the limit. --- Now that Roosevelt is foremost of a jury he might repair a verdict clearing himself. --- It must have been that the colonel had something good when he wrote that letter last June. --- Connecticut finds its senators on nine cents a day. Probably we wouldn't notice. --- ## Column 2 # MERRY EVENING AT GREGSON SPRINGS ## James J. Regan Is Guest of Honor at a Formal Affair. Gregson Springs did itself proud last night in its entertainment of National President James J. Regan of the Ancient Order of Hibernians and the do able Irish and Irish-American admirers who gathered round the festive board to do honor to the distinguished visitor and national chief. On the walls hung large oil paintings of Emmet and Henry Grattan, Marten Dean; Green and gold, stars and stripes, potted palms, flags of the two countries and the decorations of the Hibernians so used by Jimmie Harley as a decorative element that transformed the dining hall of the re-sort into a spot truly festive and beautiful. During the banquet an orchestra and a vocal entertainment was given and furnished. The menu card was distinctively character; each card expressing the attributes of different portions of the members-side. Personal favors were handed each guest as happy mementos of the evening. The speakers imbued with the spirit of the gathering paid tribute to the work of the order of which Mr. Regan is national head and the entire gathering was served enthusiastically. The party went from Butte at 8 o'clock and returned at midnight. ### The Program. John J. O'Meara, state president of the Hibernians, was toastmaster. Those who spoke to toasts were W. K. Dwyer of Anaconda, "Our Distinguished Guest"; V. J. O'Brien, "Our Beautiful Country"; Judge "My Impressions of an A. O. H. Banquet"; Attorney Martin Charles P. Carr, "Political Experience"; Attorney Maurice J. Walsh, "The Ladies"; T. E. Maguire, "American Citizenship"; Walter Breen, "Irish Characteristics"; Judge Jeremiah J. Lynch; Robert Emmet; Judge B. Crolkey, "The Press"; Deputy County Assessor Kelly; Congressman Doyle and the Rev. — Mr. Regan spoke on "Our Order." His address was a brilliant one. He held the Hibernians to the task that was expected of them and appealed for mutual support of Irishmen by Irishmen. Mr. Regan expressed his pleasure at the honor conferred on him by the distinguished citizens who gathered in Butte as president of the Ladies' Auxiliary presented a beautiful bouquet of carnations to her and Mr. Daly to entertain the national chief of the order at Gregson Springs. Songs were given during the evening by Michael J. Carroll, Dan Quigley, John Master Janey Daly, Thomas Considine, John Murphy, Mike Sheehan and Walter J. Shay and an Anaconda quartet. The merry-makers went home singing at the conclusion of the banquet by Miss Carrie Harley's orchestra. ### Church Represented. A recitation by Michael Carriger was one of the special features of the evening. Miss Mulcahill gave some piano selections. The church was represented by priests from the different divisions of the Hibernians in Butte. Many telegrams were received from absent members. Mr. Regan left this afternoon for Anaconda, accompanied by John J. O'Meara and other Hibernians. He will attend the meeting of the Hibernians in Anaconda this afternoon and this evening he will be guest in Hibernia hall, Centerville, at a big meeting of the Hibernians and the Ladies' Auxiliary. ### Those Present. The following were guests at the banquet board: James J. Regan, John J. O'Meara, John J. Brien, Kennedy; the Rev. Father McCormack, the Rev. Father Barron, the Rev. Father Jones, John J. McLough, T. E. Maguire, Judge J. J. Crowley, Henry Cronly; James T. Tighe, Charles Carr, John Murphy, Michael Nevin, Barney McCrady, J. V. Dwyer, M. --- ## PAPE'S DIAPEPSIN SURELY PUTS THE STOMACH IN ORDER As there is often some one in your family who suffers from Indigestion, Dyspepsia or some form of Stomach trouble, why not keep a sure, quick remedy like this handy? No pretension bloating will digest everything you can eat without the slightest discomfort, and overcome a sour, gassy stomach almost instantly. Tell your pharmacist to let you read the formula plainly printed on each 50-cent cover of Pape's Diapepsin, then you will readily see why it cures Indigestion, Sour Stomach, Heartburn and other distress in five minutes, and relieves all symptoms caused by Excess Acid, Gas Eructations of sour, undigested food, Nausea, Headache, Dizziness, Constipation and other Stomach disorders. Thousands are trying to keep to heal relief from Indigestion and Dyspepsia or rather the drug store and even the morning papers advertised that they have already made up their minds that they have found the nearest thing to a certain cure for a case of Nervousness, Gastritis, Catarrh of the Stomach, etc. This, no doubt, is a serious mistake. The food we eat does not digest itself after digest; instead, it ferments and sours, turns to acid, Gas and Stomach poison, which causes all these disagreeable sensations, and besides poisons the breath with its gases. A hearty appetite with thorough digestion, or if you suffer from pain, discomfort or misery of the Stomach, is waiting for you as soon as you decide to try Pape's Diapepsin. --- ## Column 3 # A HEALTHY, HAPPY OLD AGE May be promoted by those who govern themselves thus: Even now and then, when in need of a laxative remedy, by taking the ever refreshing, wholesome and truly beneficial Syrup of Figs and Elixir of Senna, which is the only family laxative generally approved by the most eminent physicians, because it acts in a natural, strengthening way, and warms and tones up the internal organs without weakening them.

Wife—How nice it would be if all music in this world would work in harmony. Hub—Wouldn't it though? For instance, that would go up and down with the thermometer. --- ### Simple Home Remedy for Wrinkled Faces *(From Popular Monthly.)* Thousands are spending fortunes in futile efforts to remove the signs of premature age from their faces. Such women usually become easy accomplishments for worthless wrinkle removers, of which there are many. If they only knew it, the most effective remedy imaginable is a simple, harmless face wash which can be made up at home at very little expense. The prescription is: to get an ounce of powdered sanalite and ghee; a pint of witch hazel at the drug store, and use this mixture twice daily as a refreshing lotion. The effect is almost magical. Even after the first treatment a marked improvement is noticed, and the face gets a strong, firm feeling that is most pleasing. --- ## INTER MOUNTAIN'S DAILY FASHION HINT A FASHIONABLE SPRING COAT.—The coat made without a collar and with open sleeves is the latest spring fashion.

San Antonio, Texas, (March 5.)—Nat Parks, Brunswick agent of the Galveston, Harrisburg & San Antonio Railroad, has returned from El Paso, to which city he came from the battery of United States artillery. He witnessed the fight which preceded the occupation of Juarez by the rebel forces and said he never knew before if was possible for such a panic and terror, to be spread. Parks said: "The battle was a farce. An army consisting of not more than fifty men dragging a single field piece approached the town. Possibly eight of the men were mounted, the others on foot. A few scattered rifle shots were exchanged between the assailing army and the city's defenders; the cannon popped once like a big fire cracker and immediately a white flag was run up in Juarez and the rebels entered without further opposition. No one was hurt and apparently no one's feelings were hurt either." --- ## THE MEN WHO SUCCEED As heads of large enterprises are men of great energy. Success, today, demands ability as well as effort. It's often folly for a man to endure a weak, run-down, debilitated condition when Electric Bitters will put him right on his feet in short order. "Four bottles did me more real good than any other doctor's I ever took," writes Chas. B. Allen, Sylvania, Ga. "After taking them I felt the rheumatism, liver trouble, stomach disorders and general debility give way to the thanks to Electric Bitters, sound and well." Try them. Only 50 cents at Swallow Drug Co's. --- ## SIXTY DAYS IN PRISON. London, March 5.—Two of the suffragettes who took part in last night's window-smashing campaign in Victoria Street, near the houses of parliament, were sentenced to two months' imprisonment with hard labor today. The magistrate said there are nearly a hundred still to deal with; by all those arising from the disturbances of last Friday, when they accused caused damage of $25,000. After a fight described as an American residing in Paris, was sentenced today by the magistrate sitting in the West London district, to six months' imprisonment with hard labor on a charge of window-smashing. All the other women who engaged in the raid yesterday in the west end received the same sentences. The addition of hard labor to the term of imprisonment is a departure on the part of the magistrate, and has caused dismay among the women. --- Miners Savings Bank and Trust Company is a United States depositary for postal savings funds.
