With the fight in North Da kota over for the present, interest in the Non-Partisan league's efforts for the time being centers in Montana. Hero the struggle presents a dif ferent angle than that shown in the native state of the league. Mining and stock raising, not wheat farming and socialism, are the principal in dustries of Montana. This being irue, me league is xorcea 10 mane. a different appeal, and to capture, not the republican party as was the case in North Dakota, but the democratic party, which is at present in the ascendancy in Montana. Here, too, is found a situation that naturally complicates matters for an agrarian - organization, such as the league represents itself to be to its North Dakota followers. Montana is the home of the Butte miners' union, one of the strongest and most radical of labor organizations. It has. too. the Montana Federation of Labor, as a strong factor in the politics of the btate. and it is making its principal appeal, not to the farmers of the state, but to the organized miners and laborers. Radical Law Proposed. This appeal has taken form in an attempt to repeal the present work men's compensation law and substi tute therefor a law which for social istic scope is not equaled in America. This law, while it has many; of the basic features of both the Oregon and Washington laws, so far outstrips them in awards and drastic provisions as to make them .seem almost re actionary. During the last week 3500 ranchers whose names were secured to the in itiative petition for this measure, have withdrawn their signatures and it is believed that the. measure can thus be blocked. While the business men of Mon tana, like those of Oregon and Wash ington, have been asleep to the dan ger . which confronts them through the advent of the Non-Partisan league, they are thoroughly aroused now. They have a real organization, not a hit or miss association, such as carried on the fight against the league in Minnesota - League Opponent Organize. Here in Montana they have done what the people of every northwest ern state must do If it does not want the Non-Partlsan league brand of so cialism fastened upon it. They have organized. In 70 per cent of the pre cincts of the state the Montana Loyalty league has a precinct com mitteeman. They have members of the league In every precinct getting before the voters the result of the league's programme in -North Dakota They are printing a weekly news paper that gets into the hands of the voters with the arguments of the league's opponents. That is a most important factor. The lack cf such a paper is the prin cipal cause of the league's continued dominance in North Dakota. , Panera Are Stifled. ' So successful has been the league in stifling the opposition papers in North Dakota, so persistently have the league papers branded all the oppo sition papers as "liars" that the truth cannot be told them, or if told to league members has no force or effect. On the other hand, no matter , what appears in the columns of the Non partisan league papers it is accepted as the truth. While the Non-Partisan league plans have not been fully revealed in Montana, the opposition will be ready to meet them. If necessary, plans are being prepared now to consolidate the republican and democratic party sup port upon one ticket -for state offices and on county and legislative offices, too. This, with 'the deflection of the Montana farmers from the Butte rad ical labor programme, is counted upon as certain to win in Montana this fall. DEBS TO FIGHT FROM JAIL "Front Cell" Campaign Is Proposed for Socialist Candidate. DETROIT, July 10. Plans for the "front cell" campaign of Eugene V. Debs, presidential candidate of the socialist party and who is now serv ing a sentence at the Atlanta federal prison on a charge of violating the espionage law, were drafted here to day at a meeting of the national ex ecutive committee of the socialist party.

Y. Keller. 316 East Seventy-sixth street north, was yes terday continued until tomorrow aft ernoon, owing to the departure of Mr. and Mrs. Keller from the city Immediately following the double fu neral Friday afternoon. The official death certificates gave acidosis as the cause of death. It is the intention of Dr. George Parish of the health bureau to ascer tain the symptoms exhibited by the children and thus arrive at the prob able cause of their death. . "I do not believe," said Dr. Parrlsh yesterday, "that the death of either of the children was 'due to infected milk, as the milk supply of the city is tested several times weekly and thus far has always been as nearly pure as possible. The city health of flee, however, can do nothing more than make a thorough investigation of the matter and thus establish the cause of death. Acidosis is usually merely a condition which attends death and is rarely the actual cause of -death." ' The Keller children died within six days of each other, the little girl. Marie, dying on the day first set for her infant brother's funeral. Ammonia Prevents Ice Famine. ROSEBURG. Or., July 10. (Spe cial.)
