The weekly tribune., 1892-08-06

RIGHT now is good time for the peo-
pie to understand that the appropriation
bills as they passed the house of repre-
sentatives called for an expenditure OF
1864 100000. When these bills reached
the republican senate that body added
enough to the amounts first appropri-
ated to call for an expenditure of about
S500OO0,OOO. Republican journals i'm
mediately contended that the house
would be compelled to accede to what
they called the necessary amendments
by the senate or place the government
in the unenviable position of repudiat-
ing it's contracts. The extravaganza of
the last congress may make those large
appropriations necessary, but it is rank
nonsense to attempt to saddle the re-
sponsibility of making them upon the
democratic house.
The weekly tribune., 1892-08-06

The Omaha World-Herald devotes
space to a bit Of the history of Thomas
II. Carter and his "Footprints of Time. -
1t says that after Carter had gobbled
up all the farms and homes he could he
took eggs and chickens in exchange for
his territory. After he had cleaned up
the eastern field Carter struck out for
Montana for pastures new. And here is
what he said, as credited to him by the
Omaha paper, as the train pulled across
the bridge from the Council Bluffs side:
"Heres farewell to the Missouri river
and here's farewell to democracy. I'm
going to bury my democracy right here
in the waters of the old creek, and you
watch me and sec if | don't get to the
front in the republican party" Carter
got there for Carter is "a ''smart poll
tician.'

The very fast time made at the races
recently closed at Anaconda shows that
all the conditions for speed in horses
exist to a marked degree in Montana
Anaconda has good track, probably nc
faster than others in the state, but the
worlds record time for % of mile 81
seconds was made at that city. Re
markably fast time has been made upon
every track in the state. Cyclone broke
the worlds record for Geo yards at Hell
ena several years ago. The pure bracine
air Of our mountains develops wonderful
lung power in horses power which is
prominent shown upon the race track

For once the 10000 saloon-keepers of
Chicago are working in harmony with
the ministers of the gospel and other
ultra good people in tho effort to close
the worlds fair on Sunday. But they
work from different motives. The min
listers are working for the glory of God,
while the saloon-keepers are working for
the Sunday patronage of the 100000 Wis
itors who will be in the Windy city
every day in the week during the con-
tinuance of the fair. In the meantime
the christian senators have taken to
the Sunday closing idea, leaving the
wicked democrats in the house the alter
native of agreeing with them or of de-
feating the measure appropriating
S5000,0O0 to the fair. 1t looks as though
Chicago will have to get along without
the money.

through the house. He didn't do it
He didn't make move to do it. Again
the land grant act which is now the oc,
casion of SO much anxiety and embar.
rassment upon the part Of our miners
was conceived by republicans, introduced
in and passed by republican congress
and signed by a republican president. 1t
was left for democratic congressman
from Montana to take the first step to
undo the work of republicans performed
over twenty-five years ago That he did
not meet with SUCCESS at the first at
tempt is no discredit to him unless it be
shown he exhibited lack Of industry
and zeal in his labors. These cannot be
shown.

WILL CARTER BE RETAINED?

Since Mr.. Carter's election to the
craftsmanship of the national republican
committee certain little matters con-
cerning his record in Nebraska and Iowa
have been brought before the public and
now several questions are being asked
as to the effect the publicity given to his
record will have upon the president.
The questions are asked: will Harrison
retain Carter, agent for The Footprints
of Time at the head of the republican
national committee?' "Will the presi-
dent in this manner cOndone the conduct
of the man who some years ago through
sharp practice secured for his employer,
without warrantable equivalent, the
farms and homes of many honest citi-
zens in Iowa and Nebraska?" "Will the
president, said to be good and re-
spectacle man personally, consent to
employ in the coming campaign tool Of
this character? Will he deliberately re-
tain in the management Of party affairs
a man with bunko record?"
Among the journals asking these
questions is the Chicago Herald. That
paper in answering them proceeds after
this fashion: "Regrettable as is the con-
dition of affairs which renders it SO it is
probable President Harrison will do all
these things. Although reputable
man personally President Harrison polit-
ically has always shown queer predi-
lection for the utilization of rascality.'
The Herald then mentions Dudley, who
was despised for his misdeeds by all de-
cent people, but who has been at once
the presidents benefactor and bene-
iiciary. 1t also mentions the case of
Judge Woods, who prostituted his posi-
tion on the bench in condonation of
Dudley's ofiense, and who has been re-
warded with one of the most important
and honorable positions on the bench.
And says the Herald: at was from
Matthew S. Quay himself, acting in the
Office now filled by Carter, that President
Harrison received his vitiated title to the
presidency"
Continuing, the Chicago paper says;
1T is not to be supposed that Presi-
dent Harrison selected Carter for the
chairmanship of the national committee
because of his record in Nebraska and
Iowa. 1t may be that the president did
not know of that record. But there is
every reason to believe that Carter was
chosen because of the general reputa-
tion which he bore for sharpness,
shrewdness, trickiness and unscrupu-
lousness in politics. He is exactly the
sort of timber out of which the typical
chairman of the republican national com
mittee is constructed.
There may be something in the cheap
meanness of Chairman Carters career as
a book agent which will be offensive to
President Harrison, but the chances are
that the president will hold his nose
with one hand and his chairman with
the other"
The weekly tribune., 1892-08-06

IT. Mr.. Carter meet the same success
as chairman of the republican committee
which attended his efforts as a book
agent in Nebraska he will come out of
the campaign owning Harrison and half
the republican party. The people have
been assured by Bosses Clarkson and
Tom Reed that Mr.. Carter is a very
smart politician" but no one dreamed
the gentleman had taken such extensive
lessons in sharp practices as Footprints
of Time" afforded him. 1t seems, how
ever, some of the footprints ne made in
Nebraska are now appearing to disturb
him. But Carter will pay no attention
to Nebraska Or to anything which may
come from it, That state is lost to Har-
rison anyway.
The weekly tribune., 1892-08-06

The Minnesota state republican con,
vention ignored politics in candidates for
Judges Of the supreme court and nomi
mated the sitting members. one of them
being democrat. The true motive for
this will doubtless be found in the fact
that the peoples party OF that state
nominated three democrats as candidates
for the supreme bench, and by nominal.
ing democrat the republicans hope that
one of their candidates will slip through
to an election.
The weekly tribune., 1892-08-06

IT. Grover Cleveland is such weak
man before the people as charged by
republican journals they are very unwise
to say anything about it. Such remarks
may stimulate democratic central com,
mittees in work to strengthen him
Better say nothing about it. The people
may lose sight of him altogether by the
sth Of November and that would be &c
nice-for the republicans.
The weekly tribune., 1892-08-06

The political battle ground is trans
ferred this year to the west and north
west Illinois, Missouri Iowa, Mime
sofa and the Dakotas will certainly be
lost to the republican party unless radi-
cal measures be taken by its managers
to prevent them from going over to the
democratic and peoples parties. Can
Mr. Carter fry out enough 'fat" to Sc
cure their electoral votes for Harrison?
That is the question. The way matters
look at present Mr.. Carter's contract is
most discouraging one.

ANOTH CANDIDATE.

Butte, following the lead of Great
Falls, will announce herself as candi-
date for the permanent capital of the
state. A largely signed call has been is
sued for meeting to be held in that
city at an early date to take steps to
place the city properly in line for the
fight. With Butte in the field there will
be five candidates for the honor-Great
Falls, Deer Lodge, Butte, Bozeman and
Helena. 1t is a privilege they may all
enjoy. Others may enter the contest if
they see proper 1t is free-for- all race
this year, the two highest to be the can
didates in 1894 provided no one city re-
ceives majority of all the votes cast
this year.
The fight will now be for place for
among the multiplicity of candidates, no
one city can expect to capture majority
of the votes cast on the question. This
turn of affairs largely increases Great
Falls chances, and correspondingly les
sens those of its competitors. With Butte
in the field public attraction will be more
thoroughly aroused upon the question
and taxpayers and voters will study the
matter more closely and more accurately
determine the worth of each candidate.
In this general sizing up of places Great
Falls cannot suffer. Indeed her hope
for the prize rests upon intelligent com
PARSONS between her and her rivals. Let
the investigation begin at once.

lT may be true that high wages in
some departments were paid at Home
stead. That fact cuts no figure with the
principle involved. The Carnegie com
pany contend it cannot pay the wages
without loss to itself. But it did pay
the wages and Carnegies was nearly
Sl4,OOO day. The tariff is the tariff he
asked for and it protects him to the de-
sired extent. lie held he could pay good
wages under it. Now he admits he can't;
that he was mistaken in the effect of its
operation and virtually confesses that
protection does not create high wages
Workingmen will make note of this.

THE net result Of free trade in Great
Britain is one pauper out Of every thirty.
eight inhabitants. This is the condition
that the democrats invite us to bring
upon the country-Helena Herald.
The best authorities place the number
of tramps and idle men in the United
States at 100000, or one pauper out OF
every rhirty-one inhabitants. This con.
dition is brought about by republican
high tariffs.

the opening of Mr.. Harrison's campaign
will be signalizcd by the opening of a
war against labor organizations by those
who are the benefciaries of the tariff
policy of the republican party. and who
have been and still are large con-
tributors to its corruption fund. Mr..

THE fact that some London physicians
removed a button from the throat of a
child in which it had become lodged by
cutting to it from the outside is CON
sidered of sufficient importance to the
world to be telegraphed to the four quar-
tiers of the globe. The fact is the opera
tlon is very common one in America.
California physicians having successful
ly removed pine nuts from the throats
OF children years ago and it was not con
sidered such very difficult operation by
them neither. Surgeons nowadays can
come pretty nearly taking out ones in

and send their patient rejoicing on the
road to recovery.
