DEMOCRATIC FACTIONS BEFORE THE MONTANA SUPREME COURT [SPECIAL TO INTER MOUNTAIN.] Helena, Oct. a2.--Warring factions of democracy of Silver Bow county appeared before the supreme court in force this morning, each determined to prove that it i the only party so designated. With a dozen or more lawyers came not less than So witnesses, members of rival central committees and workers in the ranks of the two factions. The insufficiency of the accommodations for the supreme court was made evident by the crowding of the room to such an extent that it was hilgossible to seat the MEMORY RETURNS AFTER TEN YEARS GEORGE FRASIER, LOST TO MINDS OF MEN, RECOGNIZED ON BUTTE STREET. HAD WANDERED AWAY AND NEVER BEEN HEARD FROM Family Mourned Him as Dead, Until an Old Friend Meets Him Begging in This City-Does Not Recollect How He Came to Lose His Money, or Where He Has Been All These Years. One of the strangest cases of mental derangement on record came to light this morning when George Frasier, who has lived without mental record of the past to years, suddenly recovered his lost memory on meeting a friend of his younger days face to face on \Vest Park street. Warped with age and paralysis and de- pendent upon the charity of strangers for a wretched existence, George Frasier has wandered for so long years through the mazes of a mrental mist that shut out all memory of wealth and home, loved ones and friends who have long since mourned him as dead. Even his own name and Identity were lost in the shadows of his clouded mind. But the fates had not for. gotten, as the sequel shows, and the tangled threads of his past have once more been gathered up and woven into the lives of those who knew and loved him in the long ago. In 1885 Frasier moved away from the East and established himself on a small cattle ranch in the Indian Territory; near Claremore. Hard work and ceaseless in- dustry brought their reward, and in time he became recognized as one of the wealth- lest cattlemen in that section of the coun- try. Aumong the adornments of his happy home were a wife and only son. A Cheery Good-bye. Then came a time, 1o years ago this fall, that Frasier bade his family a cheery good-bye and started for El Paso, Texas. to buy some fancy cattle. He carried $io,ooo with him. Three days later he wrote his wife of his safe arrival, but that was the last ever heard of him. Mrs. Frasier was distracted with grief; she and the friends of the missing man made every effort to locate him, but they proved fruitless. Finally Frasier was given up for dead, the theory being that he had been murdered for his money. Mrs. Frasier mourned her husband's loss for three years, and thinking he was dead, married R. F. Gibbes, a wealthy cattleman of Claremore. This marriage did not prove a happy one and a divorce court did the rest. The Years Went On. So the years went on and Frasier's niche in the world was filled and all but forgot- ten until this morning. J. H. McSweeny, a commercial salesman of Claremore, I. T., arrived in Butte a week ago on business, and while walking down West Park street from the postoffice, he was accosted by a beggar. The mendicant was a pitiful ob- ject with his tattered clothes, twisted limbs, staring eyes and features pinched and faded by the pangs of hunger, but McSweeny was in a hurry and continued on his way with only a passing glance. A second appeal, however, brought him to a sudden halt, and he looked around. There was a lurking echo in the poor old beggar's voice that awakened haunting memnories. Then McSweeny was startled by the likeness of the old beggar in the long missing Frasier. "I know you now I You are George Frasierl" exclaimed McSweeny. A gleam of uncertain memnory flashed for a second in the vacant eyes of the old paralytic and then died out again. Shak. lng his head slowly, as though not sure, he said: "No, I am not George Frasier; miy name is John Evans." McSweeny, however, was not to be con- vinced, and, positive of his recognition, he telegraphed to Claremore for F. H. Wilson, an old friend of the demented man. "Think I have found Frasier," thIe tele- gram read. A Gleam of Memory. Wilson arrived in Butte yesterday, and. he and McSweeny found the old beggar stationed at the corner of Main and Park soliciting alms. It took but one look for Wilson to recognize the friend of his childhood days. Somehow the voice and look of Wilson seemed to make a rift in the clouds of the old man's mind, and he, too, recognized his friend of the past. The shock was almost too much for Frasier, but he was tenderly removed to a hotel, while Frasier penned this short telegram to the "It is Frasier." Last evening Frasier's long-lost mental faculties seemed restored by his recogni- tion of Wilson, to whom he told the story of his wanderings, so far as he could remember them. Hle has no recollection of what became of the $ro,ooo. His memory gradually failed him in El Paso, where he was taken ill to years ago with mountain fever. Frasier will be taken home tomorrow to his wife and s6n, who is now a sturdy lad of 17 years. It is hoped that by the most careful treatment he will be restored to his/ good health and that his mental blank will never return. REGISTER TODAY. Butte delegation. As soon as court convened the hearing began, all other business being put oil for the case. McHatton was first to speak, appearing in behalf of that faction controlled by Heinze and self-styled as democratic. Mc- Hatton made a long argument. As a starter he demurred to the petition of the opposition, alleging that two things were sought in one application, a writ of man- date and an injunction. To permit of pro- ceeding with the case the court overruled the demurrer. Then the argument began. Mcllatton asserted that the court had no jurisdiction Mantle Arouses Enthusiasm (Continued from Page One.) indorsement in any way reflected on the character of Mr. Holloway. Upon opening his address Mr. Mantle said: "This campaign marks another effort to redeem this splendid commonwealth from the sordid grasp and the blighting influence of that aggregation of incom- petency, inconsistency and greed, which styles itself the 'fusion party of Mon- tana.' "Four years ago a conglomerated mass of political odds and ends, welded onto the old ttme-honored democratic party of this state to serve purely selfish and personal ends, and held in place solely through the influence of the barrel, has dominated our affairs anid controlled our legislation to the inijury of our material prosperity and to the eternal shame and disgrace of our good name in the eyes of the world. We Have Been Abused. "For four years andi more, while the country at large has felt the invigorating impulse of a great national revival, moral, material and intellectual, our own state has been compelled to grovel in the mire of personal and factional hatreds, and to become the jibe and the jeer and the laughing stock of all our neighbors, a by-word and a reproach throughout the length and breadth of the land. "While other states have risen to the height of their splendid opportunities and have joined in the great triumphal march of prosperity and progress made possible by republican dominance and republican policies, Montana alone in all that tier of grand commonwealths extending ftom the Atlantic to the Pacific on the Canadian line, is lagging in the rear, borne down by the incubus of millionaire and cor- porate dictation, of greed and incompe- tency in office, of disgraceful quarrels, of disreputable bargains anld of bribery and corruption, which have covered the state like an Egyptian mildew, benumbing the moral sense of many of its people aind setting an infamous example to the rising generation. As a result of these condi- tions today, the state of Montana, rich beyond compare in possibilities of great- ness in every view of life, stands with downcast eyes and averted face, shamed and humiliated in the presence of her splendid sisters, enjoying the proud dis- tinction of being first at tile tail cud of the great procession. They Had Their Chance. "The democratic party and its fusion allies have had it in their power by a wise and patriotic administration of our affairs during the past six years, to re- flect honor and credit upon the state and upon themselves, but I think it will not be denied, even by themselves, that they have been unequal to the splendid opportunity which was theirs. They have permitted personal and factional quarrels to divide and array them against each other, with the result that tile public business has been neglected, sworn duties have been violated, taxes have been in- ceased, the money of the people squan- dered. Public offices have been prosti- tuted for the use and gain of one faction at the expense of the other and every public interest betrayed for selfish and factional purposes. "And our democratic friends will not themselves deny that the public morals have been openly debauched, that party faith and party allegiance have been broken under circumstances which justify the worst suspicions. They will not deny that political corruption has run riot and that in the vote of perjury and bribery and which has held sway many reputations have been ruined, and the good name of the state and its citizenship has been dragged in the mud and mire of indi- vidual and party scandals all the way from the capital at Helena to the capital at Washington. "And what is the paramount duty of the people of Montana today? It is to lift the state out of the disgraceful rut into which it has thus been sunk, and to place it upon a higher plane of oflicial purity, political integrity and public mor- ality. This is a duty which the honesty and respectability, and intelligence of this state owes to itself and to the common- wealth. And fortunately for those who are willing to set themselves to the per- formance of this high resolve, the result is placed beyond doubt by the present un- happy and divided conditions of the demo- cratic party and its former allies, and by the splendid character and qualification of those who are bearing the republican standard."

Then he as- erlted that in county affairs the county convention rules, not thile state organiza- tion. Con Kelley and R. l.ee Word replied. Their position is that the state convention dercided for the Clark faction and being the highest organization of the party should be recognized as having a right to decide disputes within the party. Authori- ties were produced in support of both con- testants. Kelley argued principally against the motion to strike front the peti- tion everything pertaining to the lloaeman convention, Mellatton claiming that it had ilothing to do with the case.

MEMORY RETURNSAFTER TEN YEARS
GEORGE FRASIER, LOST TO MINDSOF MEN, RECOGNIZED ON
BUTTE STREET.
HAD WANDERED AWAY ANDNEVER BEEN HEARD FROM
Family Mourned Him as Dead, Until anOld Friend Meets Him Begging inThis City-Does Not Recollect HowHe Came to Lose His Money, orWhere He Has Been All These Years.
One of the strangest cases of mentalderangement on record came to light thismorning when George Frasier, who haslived without mental record of the past toyears, suddenly recovered his lost memoryon meeting a friend of his younger daysface to face on \Vest Park street.
Warped with age and paralysis and de-pendent upon the charity of strangers fora wretched existence, George Frasier haswandered for so long years through themazes of a mrental mist that shut out allmemory of wealth and home, loved onesand friends who have long since mournedhim as dead. Even his own name andIdentity were lost in the shadows of hisclouded mind. But the fates had not for.gotten, as the sequel shows, and thetangled threads of his past have once morebeen gathered up and woven into the livesof those who knew and loved him in thelong ago.
In 1885 Frasier moved away from theEast and established himself on a smallcattle ranch in the Indian Territory; nearClaremore. Hard work and ceaseless in-dustry brought their reward, and in timehe became recognized as one of the wealth-lest cattlemen in that section of the coun-try. Aumong the adornments of his happyhome were a wife and only son.
A Cheery Good-bye.Then came a time, 1o years ago this fall,
that Frasier bade his family a cheerygood-bye and started for El Paso, Texas. tobuy some fancy cattle. He carried $io,ooowith him. Three days later he wrote hiswife of his safe arrival, but that was thelast ever heard of him. Mrs. Frasier wasdistracted with grief; she and the friendsof the missing man made every effort tolocate him, but they proved fruitless.Finally Frasier was given up for dead, thetheory being that he had been murderedfor his money.
Mrs. Frasier mourned her husband's lossfor three years, and thinking he was dead,married R. F. Gibbes, a wealthy cattlemanof Claremore. This marriage did notprove a happy one and a divorce court didthe rest.
The Years Went On.So the years went on and Frasier's niche
in the world was filled and all but forgot-ten until this morning. J. H. McSweeny,a commercial salesman of Claremore, I. T.,arrived in Butte a week ago on business,and while walking down West Park streetfrom the postoffice, he was accosted by abeggar. The mendicant was a pitiful ob-ject with his tattered clothes, twistedlimbs, staring eyes and features pinchedand faded by the pangs of hunger, butMcSweeny was in a hurry and continuedon his way with only a passing glance.
A second appeal, however, brought himto a sudden halt, and he looked around.There was a lurking echo in the poor oldbeggar's voice that awakened hauntingmemnories. Then McSweeny was startledby the likeness of the old beggar in thelong missing Frasier.
"I know you now I You are GeorgeFrasierl" exclaimed McSweeny.
A gleam of uncertain memnory flashedfor a second in the vacant eyes of the oldparalytic and then died out again. Shak.lng his head slowly, as though not sure,he said: "No, I am not George Frasier;miy name is John Evans."
McSweeny, however, was not to be con-vinced, and, positive of his recognition, hetelegraphed to Claremore for F. H. Wilson,an old friend of the demented man."Think I have found Frasier," thIe tele-gram read.
A Gleam of Memory.Wilson arrived in Butte yesterday, and.
he and McSweeny found the old beggarstationed at the corner of Main and Parksoliciting alms. It took but one look forWilson to recognize the friend of hischildhood days. Somehow the voice andlook of Wilson seemed to make a rift inthe clouds of the old man's mind, and he,too, recognized his friend of the past. Theshock was almost too much for Frasier, buthe was tenderly removed to a hotel, whileFrasier penned this short telegram to the
"It is Frasier."Last evening Frasier's long-lost mental
faculties seemed restored by his recogni-tion of Wilson, to whom he told the storyof his wanderings, so far as he couldremember them. Hle has no recollectionof what became of the $ro,ooo. Hismemory gradually failed him in El Paso,where he was taken ill to years ago withmountain fever.
Frasier will be taken home tomorrow tohis wife and s6n, who is now a sturdy ladof 17 years. It is hoped that by the mostcareful treatment he will be restored to his/good health and that his mental blank willnever return.

McHatton was first to speak, appearingin behalf of that faction controlled byHeinze and self-styled as democratic. Mc-Hatton made a long argument. As astarter he demurred to the petition of theopposition, alleging that two things weresought in one application, a writ of man-date and an injunction. To permit of pro-ceeding with the case the court overruledthe demurrer.

indorsement in any way reflected on thecharacter of Mr. Holloway.
Upon opening his address Mr. Mantlesaid:
"This campaign marks another effortto redeem this splendid commonwealthfrom the sordid grasp and the blightinginfluence of that aggregation of incom-petency, inconsistency and greed, whichstyles itself the 'fusion party of Mon-tana.'
"Four years ago a conglomerated massof political odds and ends, welded ontothe old ttme-honored democratic partyof this state to serve purely selfish andpersonal ends, and held in place solelythrough the influence of the barrel, hasdominated our affairs anid controlled ourlegislation to the inijury of our materialprosperity and to the eternal shame anddisgrace of our good name in the eyesof the world.
We Have Been Abused."For four years andi more, while the
country at large has felt the invigoratingimpulse of a great national revival, moral,material and intellectual, our own statehas been compelled to grovel in the mireof personal and factional hatreds, and tobecome the jibe and the jeer and thelaughing stock of all our neighbors, aby-word and a reproach throughout thelength and breadth of the land.
"While other states have risen to theheight of their splendid opportunities andhave joined in the great triumphal marchof prosperity and progress made possibleby republican dominance and republicanpolicies, Montana alone in all that tier ofgrand commonwealths extending ftom theAtlantic to the Pacific on the Canadianline, is lagging in the rear, borne downby the incubus of millionaire and cor-porate dictation, of greed and incompe-tency in office, of disgraceful quarrels, ofdisreputable bargains anld of bribery andcorruption, which have covered the statelike an Egyptian mildew, benumbing themoral sense of many of its people aindsetting an infamous example to the risinggeneration. As a result of these condi-tions today, the state of Montana, richbeyond compare in possibilities of great-ness in every view of life, stands withdowncast eyes and averted face, shamedand humiliated in the presence of hersplendid sisters, enjoying the proud dis-tinction of being first at tile tail cud ofthe great procession.
They Had Their Chance."The democratic party and its fusion
allies have had it in their power by awise and patriotic administration of ouraffairs during the past six years, to re-flect honor and credit upon the stateand upon themselves, but I think it willnot be denied, even by themselves, thatthey have been unequal to the splendidopportunity which was theirs. They havepermitted personal and factional quarrelsto divide and array them against eachother, with the result that tile publicbusiness has been neglected, sworn dutieshave been violated, taxes have been in-ceased, the money of the people squan-dered. Public offices have been prosti-tuted for the use and gain of one factionat the expense of the other and everypublic interest betrayed for selfish andfactional purposes.
"And our democratic friends will notthemselves deny that the public moralshave been openly debauched, that partyfaith and party allegiance have beenbroken under circumstances which justifythe worst suspicions. They will not denythat political corruption has run riot andthat in the vote of perjury and bribery andwhich has held sway many reputationshave been ruined, and the good name ofthe state and its citizenship has beendragged in the mud and mire of indi-vidual and party scandals all the wayfrom the capital at Helena to the capitalat Washington.
"And what is the paramount duty ofthe people of Montana today? It is tolift the state out of the disgraceful rutinto which it has thus been sunk, and toplace it upon a higher plane of oflicialpurity, political integrity and public mor-ality. This is a duty which the honestyand respectability, and intelligence of thisstate owes to itself and to the common-wealth. And fortunately for those whoare willing to set themselves to the per-formance of this high resolve, the resultis placed beyond doubt by the present un-happy and divided conditions of the demo-cratic party and its former allies, and bythe splendid character and qualificationof those who are bearing the republicanstandard."

convention rules, not thile state organiza-tion.
Con Kelley and R. l.ee Word replied.Their position is that the state conventiondercided for the Clark faction and beingthe highest organization of the partyshould be recognized as having a right todecide disputes within the party. Authori-ties were produced in support of both con-testants. Kelley argued principallyagainst the motion to strike front the peti-tion everything pertaining to the lloaemanconvention, Mellatton claiming that it hadilothing to do with the case.
