Sensible and Logical Speeches.
From Wednesday Daily.
The Scandinavian Democratic club held
q well attended AMI enthusiastic meeting
at Democratic headquarters last night.
President Swanson presided and intro.
duced Chris Doe, treasurer of the club, as
the first speaker.
Mr.. Boo stated that the presence of go
many Scandinavian Democrats afforded
MIN much pleasure and also gave much
food for thought, rs it was Indicative of
their independence and freedom from boss.
ism. For the last three years, he said, the
sandinavians OF Silver Bow had been led
by Republican politicians and herded like
40 many sheep and that. too, without q
word OF protest on their part. He was
glad that this was the case no longer: that
the Sc~andinavians were able to think and
act Tor themselves in political as well as all
other matters pertaining to their personal
welfare and ne longer tolerated themseIves
to be herded to the polls and after demos
ltlng their ballots to be c~ast,off and ignored
until the next election. He next
humorously referred to his elec. /!
ton as treasurer OF the club
at it's last meeting and then
closed by appealing to his auditors
to vote and work for the success of the |
entire ticket. Among the candidates for
county officers he especially recommended
+. Booth to their kindest consideration
Not only was Mr.. Booth an honest and
officer, he said, but also the most
and accommodating gentleman
who had ever occupied tue Office of county
and recorder, and should be re-.
beyond the shadow of a doubt.
Hans Doe followed, and after q few -.
marks pertinent to the principles at issne

When you come to vote on next Tues.
day remember that the Republican party
is the party of trusts. That a modern
trust means a gross injustice to the con-
sumner and an unreasonable profit to
those interested in the trust. 1t means
the determination of all competition in
the manufacture and sale of any given
article, so that the trust al charge you,
a consumer, any price it may name for
the article. That's protection as the Re-
publicans distil it.

Don't be Selfish Any More

II asked what, as the result OF my expert.
ence, is the greatest pleasure in life, l should
say, doing good to others. Not a strikinyly
original remark, perhaps, but seemingly the
most difficult thing in the world is to be
prosperous and generous at the same time.
During the war 1 asked a very rich man to
contribute some money to a certain relief
fund. He shook his head. 'Childs," he
said. 81 can't give you anything. 1 have
worked too hard for my money" That is
just it. Being generous grows on one, Just
as being mean does. The disposition to give
and to be kind to others should be incul-
Gated and fostered in children. 1t seems to
me that is the way to improve the world
and make happy the people who arein it.

CHINESE

Since the Harrison party came into
power the Chinese are again 1ocking to
u shores. This is due to a recent rul-
ing permitting Chinese tourists and
scholars to visit this country. John
knows a thing or two and he comes and
mingles with his c%ountrymen and his
identity is lost. He knows too, that the
Republican party is his friend. Benja-
min Harrison is worshipped by every
Chinaman in the United States. A vote
for the Republican party is a vote in
favor Of Chinese immigration and don't
forget it on Tuesday next.

THE BLUnAND ritz GRAY,

LII UNA h ~
The reunion of the blue and the gray
at the field Of Chickamauga last week,
and the interchange Of loyal and friend
y sentiment, Of which 1t was the occa-
sion, is another rose to bloom DER the
grave of the silent past and lend its fra
GRANGE to a smiling future. Long ago
the blue and the gray shook hands, and
in all of the many pleasant reunions
there has been a spirit Of good will be-
coming the soldier who has laid aside
the trappings Of war for the implements
of peace. And in his example the dema-
gogGes of party may read a lesson from
the pages Of true patriotism the practise
Of which will invoke a higher love of
liberty and extinguish forever the fires
of sectional hate.

the other a depression. 1t teaches a les

RATHER DISTAsTEFUL,

The record of the Hon. Thomas B. Reed
and the Hon. George Sheridan is rather
distasteful even to the rank and file of
the Republican party of Montana. They
are as astute as they are unprincipled,
and this is the reason the Republican
managers of Montana consented to accept
their services. The Democratic party
has no damaging facts to combat in this
campaign, but the lies demand attention
and they are receiving it.
