"Satisfied that the people or Mon tana believe in justice and fair play, 1 have come into your commonwealth no: to seek revenge; not to enter into a controversy with men in whom I once had every confidence, but to ask for a fair deal. There is no malice in my heart; I am not here to invoke the strong arm of the law. My veracity has been attacked by men residing in this community. They have rullen into evil hands and the temptation was too great. They have sold their birthright for silver and there probably was more than 30 pieces. "I am here to give my version of the Mt. McKiniey controversy and then leave my case In the hands or an honest jury the people of the great state of Montana. I will ac cept their verdict." Attempts to Stenl His Glory.

"Hamilton and Missoula have early shown their disapproval or this bat tle of Injustice. Your ralrness and your fulth is a pledge or human na ture worth more than' millions thrown Into the hell or bribery. Bring Proof From Summit. "For the present I am willing to trust my case to the citizens ot Mon tana ns a jury. Arter you have read the mass or testimony which my counsel has collected. I am ready to abide by your verdict. Then, with a new expedition to Mt. McKiniey I will guarantee our ruture position.

Sixty homesteads ot 20 acres each on the Umatilla reclamation project In the west end ot this county are to be thrown open ror settlement some time during the winter.
