STAY WITH THE FACTS,

Carter, being a free coinage advocate, voted
and talked free coinage every time he had u
chance Is,ffe Inter Mountain.
That is n way of putting it, and
when the statement Is measured up
against the facts, it simply proves that
Mr.. Carter must have lost some excel
lent chances.
What is the record? Mr.. Reed took
pains early in June to his
hostility to silver by saying: "The
Northwest and especially the four new
states have been well treated by this
congress and IL is asking a great deal
to have a silver bill framed in their in
terest to the detriment of the East"
Thereafter, Speaker Reed proposed
TO push through the house, on two
days debate, a measure OnspicuOusly
u%nfriendly to silver and known as the
Mckinley proposal. by the exercise
of all the tremendous power he is able
to exert over legislation, the speaker
barely saved the bill, the vote being l20
TO III. At that critical moment Carter
was silenced. lie did not vote.
Eight republicans who declared
themselves 'out llatfooted for free
coinage" refused to be bOssed by Mr..
Reed, but Carter. Of Montana, was not
one of the eight. lie was scored for
his conduct in dispatches to iniiu-
entail republican newspapers in Den
yer, Salt Lake City and elsewhere. Had
he rallied western votes at that hour
with a 1.-THE of the energy he showed in
rounding up support for Reed when
he was candidate for speaker, there
isn't a doubt in the world that the
strength needed TO overcome the mar
row margin of three would have been
found and the opposition to silver
would have been eiiectually stampeded
then and there.
If Mr.. Carter is honest in his an
nouncement that he will not run for
congress this year, the vote he failed to
east for silver is not of great account.
Since it appears, however, that Butte
republicans are resolved to favor Hell
ena for another term i'm congress, it's
just as well to keep the straight history
of the case in mind.

" is o AN ISSUE.

The main issue of the coming campaign is this
state will be the retention or repeal Of the secret
ballot law. with the corporations, millionaires
and their slaves On one side and the independent
and self Respecting workingmcn and republicans
ON the other Inter Mountain.
We think not. Power and a few
other millionaire republicans want TO
change the law, but they have no fol
lowing for 1t, and the question will not
be in any sense a "main issue" i'm the
coming campaign. In fact il will cut
no figure ut all. The main issue is
going to be the fraud by which the
democratic majority recorded mt the
tunnel precinct was stolen by the re-
publicans.
IL il not easy 10 guess what purpose
there may be behind the reiterated an
management made by republican news
papers relative 10 proposed changes in
the ballot law. They have some mys-
terious intentions regarding il and IL
isn't n new scheme with them. In the
republican rump Legislature bills were
introduced providing for radical
changes in the law-there were Ger
tainly two of these: the STANDARDS
memory is that there were three.
Leave the ballot law alone. Itworks
hardships for democrats because il was
devised TO operate TO the disadvantage
of the democratic party in all that re-
lates to the registry of voters. That
fact was made very clear last Sep
TENDER. But that's all right: democrats
endured IL last year, and IL they are
willing TO try it again under last years
plan, we don't see where there is any
opening for republicans to interfere
with the law.
Undoubtedly Montana's election code
has its defects. II was adopted 10y a
republican legislature in undue haste
and il has its faults. IL lacks many Of
the eA = lent features which are a part
of the law recently adopted in many
states of the union: il is noticeably in
ferior 10 the New York law which vas
adopted several months ago and which,
i'm our Judgment, is incomparably the
best election code adopted by any state.

Powers pair, arranged by another
man with a senator who as far as yot-
ing is concerned is rs good as dead, is a
little incident which must be regarded
as eminently fitting. Power doesn't
squander any large fraction of his time
at the federal capital. lie discovered
weeks ago that democrats have singled
him out rs the one man i'm the senate
with whom il is not agreeable to pair.
Accordingly, he goes off just like a man
who doesn't regard his own vote of
account and, as a convenience, sena-
tors S him now and then as Mr..
Dolph used him yesterday.

At the same time the Montana law Is
good enough for present purposes. II
can be helped by amendments by and
by. but there's no hurry about that.
The best course is TO test the law In a
series Of elections and then give IL the
amendments which experience may
suggest.
But, under all circumstances, the
election law ought to left alone for this
year. Republicans may attempt to
make II a ''main issue" but the thing
won't work.

MORAL HORSE RACING.

"SNNN 'S'
A few weeks ago Rev. j. w. Army,
pastor of the Methodist Episcopal
church mt Saranac, Mich, announced
| that he was going to give "A horse race
| conducted on strictly moral principles,
to which his church and congregation
and the public generally were cordially
invited. Pastor Army proposed to show
| by practical demonstration the vital
difference between a moral horse race
and one Of the old fashioned, ungodly
variety. lie desired To work a revolu-
ton i'm horse racing. For many years
il had been under the ban. II was a
synonym for the world. the flesh and
| the devil. IL was considered in fact as
one of the chiefest and most unpar-
donable of sins. Dancing, novels,
theaters. billiards and tobacco were
Mt one time dangerous and truly de
plorable vices, vet none of them ap-
preached in real wickedness and
genuine d~eprayity, unrelieved by the
thinest excuse, the rank and riotous
crime of racing horses. Any church
member found aiding, abetting, at
tending or otherwise encouraging such
exhibitions wa "A tit subject for eXcom-
m%unication. Any brother discovered
in the act of speeding a horse on the
highway even. whether the animal was
his own, or borrowed from a friend, or
rented from "A livery stable, was open
to the suspicion of having fallen from
race or at least being so carnal minded
as To merit prayerful censure and re-
proof. Horses that could do better
than four minutes were possessed of
the devil and were to be stunned ac-
cordingly.
Rev. Mr.. Army saw that this was all
wrong and courageously determined to
effect a change. lie observed that dur
ing the past quarter of q century the
church has adopted a much more toler-
ant view of dancing, novels, theaters,
billiards and tobacco than il formerly
entertained. Even the circus has come
in for its share Of moral elevation. an
advance to which Il is indebted almost
exclusively to the efforts of Mr.. Bar
mum. who by simply advertising his
aggregation as "a great moral show"
worked a change in public sentiment
that is little short of marvellous. No.
body, however, had performed a like
service for horse racing. There IL re-
manned in the category of sins, with
none TO lift il out and place it among
the list of amusements which man may
patronize without most serious and
alarming consequences TO his SOU.
What Barnum has done for the circus
Pastor Army would do for the horse
race.
Mr.. Arny's grand moral meeting
came of as scheduled last Saturday in
the presence of a large and enthusiastic
congregation. The pastor had an
nounced that he was prepared TO trot
his horses against all corners, and al
though one searches in vain i'm the re
ports for any mention of purses il APP
pears that the challenge was ac.
copied with a~lacrity by numerous
brethren who thought their horses were
fully equal to the dominie's. Nor were
sinners barred. The wicked and
ungodly came with their unregenerated
nags. and were cheerfully accommo-
dated in any class they might elect.

Bronco Bill, the story of whose flight
and capture. is detailed i'm the local
columns of this mornings STANDARD,
appears to be an unusually accom-
plished and versatile specimen of the
genus cowboy. His latest exploit has
raised a very interesting question of
law-whether a man can steal his own
horse. 1.-THE courts hold In the ailirma.
tive, there is still a moral aspect of the
ease to be considered. A horse thief
who steals his own horse is surely not
SO black a criminal a a horse thief
who makes way with the equine prop
erty of another. The present ease is
productive of additional legal compli-
cations by the fact that Bronco Bill
has given his horse to his lawyer as
payment for defending him. Now if
Bronco Bill stole the horse. u charge
against the lawyer for receiving stolen
property would lie. II is not likely
however that the county attorneys
sense of professional courtesy will per-
init him to prosecute Bronco Bills
learned counsel. The Deer Lodge bar
doesn't do such things, whatever the
Silver Bow bar may do. IL is enough
that Bronco Bill should lose his own
horse and go tn the ~penitentiary be-
sides. such punishment should amply
satisfy the demands of justice.
