OpES THE FAIR ~ NDiYS.

This paper has used some pretty strong
language to express its adherence of the
narrow blgotry of the men who are try
ing to force the closing Of the worlds
fair on Sundays, but all that it has said
is mild when compared with the com
mcnts of some of theeastern press. For
instance the Washington Post says:
This is a free country-not a land Of
ecclesiastical ~despotism. Not the dun
geon. the rack, the thumbscrew or the
stake could compel men in ages when
their privileges were few. Why will men
undertake in this enlightened age and
this home Of human liberty to accom
plish what Knox. Calvin, and Torque
mazda could not accomplish in the dark
and bloody past! Let Col. Shepard 90
home and be as good as he can. lie
will not be held accountable for any-
body clse's wickedncss at the day of
judgment. 1t is perfectly clear to our
mind that congress will grossly invade
the liberties of the people and violate
the spirit of the constitution when it
begins to enact rules Of conduct for the
individual. No one in this country is
W u 10 'il i" 10
neighbOr; no lawmaking body can leGis-
late men into church. The founders Of
our liberties fled from Just such tyran-
nical and Intolcrable tyranny as Col.
Shepard and his coadjutors are now en-
dcavOring to inlet.
But the fanatics are as active as the
friends Of liberty, and it will require "A
constant and vigilant warfare to thwart
them. 1t is time for the people to insist
that congrcs, shall repeal the Sunday
closing act. This they a do by pet
tons or by personal letters to their rep
rcscntativcs in congress.
Montana is almost a unit in favor of
an open Sunday at the fair, and the
state legislature might very properly
send a memorial to congress on the sub.
jcct. Let some enlightened member
propose it. He will get support enough
to carry it through.

BLAINE Is DEAD.

James G.. Blaine, after a lingering i'll,
ness has paid the penalty of nature, and
passed on to that higher and better state
of existence where he will meet man!
more of the great ones Of earth.
Although not exactly Il genius, Blaine
was Il man of fine natural abilities, and
these were ~prudently trained and hus-
banded in the school Of experience. The
biographical sketch we print of him this
morning shows that his tendencies were
always upward and onward; that he
possessed the foresight, insight aud
courage of a born leader. and that he
was often a length ahead of the other
leading spirits of his party. lie was an
American to the core. and rose to q pin
nacle of greatness in the esteem of his
contemporaries as high as was possible
in the Republic at this epoch. He was
always found on the patriotic and prog
rcssiye side of every question, with the
single exception Of the silver question.
and it is not to be doubted that his fail
ure in this instance was due to false in
formation and the imbibing of prcjudices
which have been general for many years
among the politicians and capitalists of
the country.
New times require new men, and it
may be that nature provided this fact
and death to offset each other in the
economy OF the world. For his genera
ticn Blaine WAS a nigh orier of man, but
a higher order is needed and fOrthcom.
ing. Cleveland is the link between the
old order and the new, and Blaine dies
Just as the portcullis falls which shuts
off forever the era Of spells and corrup-
ton in public office and opens the way
to honor and rcuown in American poll
tics, which now bids fair to attain to the
Of statssmanship.
Men finish their work and lay il down
to he taken up by others. Blaine has
pointed the way for much useful effort
for Il generation or two to come. Ills
good works Will live after him, and his
will live when the last page of the
republics history shall be written.

Anaconda Standard:
The River Press characteriZes Mr..
Collins as one of the most ungrateful of
men, because he has dared TO enter the
contest for United States senator against
W. A. Clark. The paper asserts tina
when the democratic state convention
was held at Great Falls last Septembci,
there were two candidates for governor;
that when all delegations had voted OK
cept Silver Bow without a choice. the
Silver Bow delegation Withdrew for a
caucus, and hat Mr.. Clark persuaded
the delegation to vote solidIy for Collins,
thus nominating him. The River Press
has been misinformed as to the facts in
this case. 1t is true that the Silver Bow
delegation turned the tide in favor Of
Mr.. Collins by voting for him. 1t is not
true that Mr.. Clark persuaded the dele
CATION to vote for Collins. The Silver
Bow delegates to the Great Falls con-
v~ention held no less thar three caucuses
in regard to a nominee for governor. At
each of these caucuses Mr.. Clark and his
licutenants opposed Mr.. Collins. al
though the sentiment of the delegation
WAS undoubtedly in Mr.. Collins favor.
Owing to this opposition, the delegation
had not definitely agreed on its choice
when the vote was called. The Silver
Bow delegation was forced To retire in
order to caucus. Mr.. Clark and his par
ticular friends in the delegation will not
claim that they ~'.persuadcd' the dclega-
ton to vote Tor Collins, or even that they
voted for him. 1t was NOT by the help
of Mr.. Clark that Collins received the
support of the Silver Bow county dele
CATION, and consequent nomination.
Here is food for thought at this stugc
of the senatorial contest.
