There are some things, In this connection, that tlie Honorable gentleman has failed, ao far, to touch upon, that might easily be construed into patriotism of a high order. A a lt Is, the silence of the honorable Fred can only be ascribed to a sklm-milk quality of sluuneJaced poltroonery. Mr. Whiteside, in his personal organ the “Hee,” would apparently slur the reputation of E. M. Hutchinson, be cause the latter attended the special sesalon of the last legislature nearly a year ago, “Riding on a pass,’’ and chattfnjf tlie State something orer $ 100.00 for his services. It Is made to appear that many members of that legislature had agreed to attend the special session free of charge. The opinion of most people would indicate that Mr. llutch inson received no wore than the others lor his services on that occasion. If Ihe State of Montana is in the market tor the services of citizens who' can afford to work for nothing, let Mr. Whiteside himself be the first to vol unteer. During the regular session of the legislature under discussion, Whiteside was present most of the time, But not as an accredited REPRESENTATIVE OF THIS ELECTOR ATE. Members of the House and Senate whose statements can easily be believed without the proverbial grain of salt with wliicli Whiteside’s utterances have usually to be swal lowed, have said that the Honorable Fred was lobbying for the Amalga mated Copper Company at that time. That is, like a mongrel puppy in a back alley, he was skipping about trailing a chunk of putrid garbage along with him and courting the in clination of whatever cur lie could find to help him play with It. Again, he was seen behind the speaker of the house, visibly direct ing the course of whatever legislation happened to strike liis fancy. Does Mr. Whiteside expect any nor mal minded man, or boi’y of men, lo accept without comment— that minus the necessary credentials from the people of Flathead couuty—he was ectorate on’ ' these occasions? For whom and for.what particular por tion of tills community was tlie gen tleman’s penchant for intrigue and liis well worn political acumen be* Ing expended?! Notwithstanding his declarations and hysterical vocifera tion to the contrary, but one explain ation will hold water, and that is, Mr. Whiteside’s abilities on these occasions were subsidized by a con stituency foreign to Flathead coun ty, Montana. In this connection, it may be well to suspect—even to hope—that the subsidy he received was commensu rate witli the tliumbrinarking which i much benefit. Mean candidate for the legislature, declared when nominated at' tlie county convention. Mr. Lewis is a pioneer of this section of the county, being at one time . a farmer a. short distance south of town and for more than twenty years has been In close touch with tlie needs of tlie farmers. If elected he declares that lie will | work for and aid in every way possible legislation that will enable the agricul- I cultural lands in the forest reserve to be thrown open to settlers,and if he is successful in gaining tills legislation this part of the county would receive in Joint debate wltli Mr. Whiteside and discuss his record, and there say the things concerning him, to his face which lie alleged I had said behind his back, or lie would brand me as lacking in courage. This challenge was promptly accepted hy me and uiy committee, wlien Mr. O’Connell ana M r. Whiteside promptly backed out, on the pretext that they wished at the same time to discuss, my record and that of Mr. Hutchinson. I am perfectly willing tliat my recordshould he discussed by anyone who desires to do so, but 1 refuse to take part in that discussion myself. I was not aware then and neither am 1 now, that my record or that of Mr. Hutch inson had been assailed. Hence they need uo. defense. Aud should It be assailed by Mr Whiteside, 1 should not take the trouble to reply. 1 apprehend all that would be nec* cessary in a contest or debate or trial -whatever the same may be— ss de manded by Mr. O’Connell and Mr. Whiteside in their so called challenge, ViOu.ii 11 - U.e imruducLioii uf evidence of Hie tiles oi your paper of 1 MW and 18911, in oidei to siihtaiu i lie charges that are juade against iiiui.

Signed, G< H. GRUBB. Does the above nad like tiw declar ations of a coward or a man afraid to attack his own shadowy Whiteside is fortunate Indeed to have escaped the lash of Mr. Grubb’s arralnginent, which in joint debate lield In public and backed by tin merciless logic of knowledge acquired through long ac quaintance with Fred and his career, would put tlie eternal kibosh on tfial versatile gentleman’s political aspira tions, rorever. As it is, Whiteside will tie beaten at tlie polls; after that, let him slink back to ilie feet of his master and beg anotlwr kerosene cocktail. tlie gentleman’s reputation lias suf fered as a consequence. Speaking of liouse Bill 100, the In famous corporation bill, so called, tliat the Bee is so anxious to use as in an Indictment of Mr. Hutchinson. Johnny Moroney, an Amalgamated legislator, during tlie last session, got up on the floor of the lioune and gasped: ‘‘I ’d rather lose 50,000 cold Iron plunks than see this bill killed.” Johnny was pretty full at the time, so goes the story; but Whiteside, who was evidently acting, not only as a lobbyist, but a kind of Amalgamated slieap-lierder, promptly collared the stupid Johnny, liad him packed liome in a hack and put on ice. Johnny ain’t a bad chap after all; chances are he made it allright with White side. Tliasli good feller, Fred—Thash alright! Mush ’bligslied ’m sure ol man! Sliee you get something for trouble. Leave your transom open to-night; throw shomthlng over V you ol man. X. K. Stout is wandering about the county trying lo convince tlie people that lie, the “Baby of tiie Bar’’ with fewer weeks of experience than his Oh, dear to my heart, Is the old open transom; The transom that punked all the greenbacks on me.

O’Connell, chairman- of the democratic committee, a declaration that the much talked of joint debate between Mr. Whiteside and myself was declared off by his committee, for the reason that our committee would not allow Mr. Whiteside to discuss my record or that of Mr. Hutchinson. If that Is the true rea son, I now give them full authority to discuss my record from every stump and platform in this county, and be lieve that they have the same right to discuss that of Mr. Hutchinson. And I promise them in advance not to reply to anything Mr. Whiteside may say concerning me. 1 venture further to suggest, that if Mr. Whiteside or Mr. O’Connell know anything derogatory to my record or that of Mr. Hutchinson, it is tlielr plain duty to advise the vot ers of it. In tlie communication of Mr. O'Connell, herein referred to, lie lias given his version of the failure of the proposed debate to take place. Here are the fads: Mr, O'Connell issued a challenge to me to . appear being held open awaiting tlie result of November 8 th, T h e C o r o n e r J. E. Waggoner, the republican can didate for coroner, was born in the town of Brownville, Oregon, In 1861. He received his professional training of J. P. Elnley ft Son, Portland, Ore gon, one of the best known undertak ing establishments on the Pacific Coast. Mr. Waggener came to Kalis pell five years ago and entered upon tlie practice of his profession, and two years ago was made the republican candidate for the office lie now holds defeating Mr. Sherman, the demo^ cratic candidate, who was then the encumbent. During the twenty-two months Mr. Waggener has been cor- oner of Flathead county, he has held six Inquests, as compared with twenty, one held by Mr. Sherman during the same length of time, no small saving to Flathead county, as inquests cost money, and wherever unnecessary should be dispensed with. Mr. Wag gener lias attended every call and has kept a complete and concise record of every case coming under his charge. He has proven ■ himself a competent economical and wllllingpublic servant and deserves a second term. For, lo these many years, X. K Stout has fed at the Public Trough’ Occupying the softest snap in tlie Eleventh Judicial District at a salary almost equai to that of the District Judge, he has waxed fat and conli- dent. And now he has the idea, or rather llie hallucination, that, untrained and untried lie is competent to lill the oillce of legal advisor lo the county of 1< lat head.
