the administration at Washington by call

"thick-necked brute" Nice language for g
would-be Delegate in Congress.-Walker
vile News.
Sanders didn't promise, if elected, to dis
pose OF his stock and resign his director
ship in the Northern Pacific companies, die
he?-River Press.

the rules of the Timberline company for the
government OF their miners, that there is
not a laboring man in Montana who would
vote for Whipped Forever Sanders.-Cen-
terville Mining Journal.
II lay it down as a true principle, eener-
ally accepted in this land, that nc corpora
ton attorney, or agent, or representative
OF any land grant or subsidized railroad,
ought to become the representative OF the
people. whose interests are liable to come
in conflict with the interests OF the COM
pany. 1t is too much of a strain to put
any man.'-Major Maginnis.
Sanders, the poor man, who has the very
comfortable salary of SO. 900 per year, is
to abandon the best client in Mon.
tana for a seat in Congress at SIS, 200 Der

1t has been well said that Sanders ca
reer as a Legislator in the Territory began
and ended with the era of subsidy leeisla-
His only object in becoming a men,
Der of the House in 1876, and being re-
successfully until 1879 was to work
Tor railroad interests. Can any one doubt
that he was the paid agent of those corpo-
