A lady of the Listeners acquaintance
who is of Plymouth ancestry, and is reas-
onably proud of il, attended the recent
dedication of the national pilgrim monu-
mcnt i'm that town. While she was i'm the
town she took ii into her head to- drive
with some friends to the Ccdarville neigh
borhood SO unwillingly advertised i'm the
misnamcd novel 'Cape Cod Folks" The
party travelled i'm n democratic sort of We
hiclc which put them at once into more or
less familiar relations with their driver,
who was "a native of Plymouth, and who
vossipcd on i'm n very cheerful way about
the old inhabitants of the town. He knew
every one on 'en, he said. The lady just
spoken of opened her genealogical heart
to this driver, AZ il were, and alluded to
her descent and her fanily's connections
with people of this. that, and the
name famous i'm Plymouth history.
"Oh yes,'' said the driver, ''the Stand
fishes; 1 knew them folks very well. There
was old Bradford Standish-nice n man
as ever you see."
.My fathers family were related" the
lady broke i'm, ITO the Aldens, too"
"Oh yes, i know the Aldens WELL" said

The lady suddenly lost her faith i'm the
driver AS n genealogical authority; and
the incident helped her to her conclusion,
which she had already partially. formed
as the result of her studies i'm the town,
that Plymouth gcnealogies are sometimes
better known and more highly regarded
outside the old mother town than they ART

FOR PARTISAN ENDS.

On the score of regist ratiOn the dem
ocratic press will not fail to put the
party before the people of Montana i'm
the right light. Democrats in the ter
ritory favor Il plan for registry which.
while guarding the ballot. will defend
the citizen against understandable an
yam and expense.
The sentiment of II party On this
subject is faithfully expressed i'm "a
plank of the platform adopted by the
recent state convention, which declares
that democrats flavor the enactment
of sue laws AZ will secure pure cleo
tions and throw all possible safeguards
around the ballot. In towns and pOpu-
lous districts registration is u check OH
repeating and fraud, but we submit
that the present law seems to have been
framed tn throw every impeachment i'm
the way of lawful elections" Added to
these words i'm the platform Is the dec
laratiOn made by the state convention
that the republican party, being a mi
nOrity of the voters i'm Montana, is
seeking to gain ascendency by depriv-
ing the people of u free and full cleo
ton.
Already the canvass has made il
clear that many voters living i'm remote
parts of the territory are likely to lose
their vote next October, and the curl
Gus coincidence is hat the hardship
operates almost uniformity against
democrats. Reports already published
i'm these columns verify this statement,
and added testimony comes as the cam
paign grows Older.
The democratic party is pledged to a
registry law. but il is not ambitious to
Use the forms of law as an instrument
with which to advance partisan inter.
ests. Ii is a dangerous thing for any
political organization to triile with the
rights of enfranchised men. and voters
in Montana will not fail to record,

THIS SETTLES IT.

On occasion, readers of the Helena
Journal discover i'm its column a pass
ing protest regarding what other news
papers are saying about MIR. Russell B.
Harrison. In many of its aspects the
comment concerning this gentleman is
matter of local interest only. involving
chiefly the newspapers published in
Helena, where Mr.. Harrison used to be
at home.
The discussion is rather interesting
in its way, for the reason that the
young gentleman in question holds n
place of prominence in republican poll
tics, and il regarded as the party's
sponsor i'm political business relating tn
Montana. The opinion is current that
he would be disposed to represent the
state of Montana i'm the federal senate,
and there is no reason why his aspira-
lions should not run that way. Blu il
vexes the Journal to read what the
Helena independent and other journals
say touching Mr.. H%arrison's experience
in shaping politics. or his adventures in
running against some of the worlds
famous people. Doubtless Mr.. IIarri-
son himself is vexed about ii.
We strongly suspect that some of
this unfriendly editorial comment is
written with purpose af~orethought to
poke fun at the young For in
STANCE. more tuan one newspaper mas
spoken in rather u jaunty way about
his visit to Queen Victoria. The
STANDARD is not of them, for the
reason that il does not recognize the
relation between Montana politics and
the experience of Mr.. Harrison i'm the
royal presence. Our own feeling i'm
this matter is APPLY expressed in "a sim
gle sentence found in the journal of
yesterday. which say that Mr.. Russell
Harrison was polite to n estimable
lady who is at the head of u friendly
government, and who. in compliment
to his father. was polite tn him."
We submit that this we'll dundee
sentence ought to silence discussion. 1t
does Mr.. Harrison full Justice. takes
good care of the Queen, and bars UNI
friendly comment.
We trust, moreover. that this utter
ance of our Helena contemporary ma
be stamped with the seal of Mr.. lIarri-
sons approval; and we sugges that Il
.l4narked copy be sent To the Queen.
E..:Au that the Butte Inter .uonHt0in
says regarding the absolute freedom of
the voter To follow his bent has the
hearty approval of the STANDARD. We
do not believe that there is in Butte OF
this city IA man who would presume to
coerce workmen i'm his employ. AT
