HELENA, MONT, SEPT. 10, 1894.
TURN ON THE SEARCHLIGHT.

The republicans of this county, in
convention assembled last Tuesday,
selected eight gentlemen for the leg
islative assembly and selected several
other patriots for the various county
offices. The voters of Lewis and
Clarke county wear no political yoke,
nor do they go blindly to the polls and
vote straight for party nominees. On
the other hand, they are independ-
ent. conservative and discriminating,
picking here and there this name,
and that as best suit their notion
and wants. Hence 1t is that when
the returns are tabulated the result
reveals the elimination of this or that
Objectionable candidate. This is as
IL should be, and as it is hoped may
ever be. Just such independence OF
action and exercise of judgment make
political parties wary that none but
the best material be offered for the
suffrage of the people. AS people
il behooves us to be discriminating
and careful for whom we vote. 1t Is
our duty to scaa the varions tickets
carefully in search Of those who are
our friends-not campaign friends,
but all-the-year-round friends. With
a searching eye and an unsheathed
blade It shall be our duty to prune
out those who are not on record as our
friends, politics to the contrary not
withstanding. As people we should
rise above party and draw the line
and Select those who are our known
friends. Local politics no longer cut
figure with US as people. In other
words If one ticket has thereon some
friends, while the balance are on rec
ord otherwise, fill in the eliminated
names from some other ticket of men
likewise friends to us. We must be
record hunters If we wuuld be re-
spected. Whose lifteth his hand
against US 80 lift we our hands
against him. This is politics pure
and simple, if not the golden rule.
THE CoLoEED CITIZEN shall ever be
on the alert when race interest is at
stake, promising at all times to care
fully guard those sacred rights that
are most dear to US, and to poiut out
pitfalls that may be dug for our po-
litical remains.
With no strings to us, we are foot
loose and free to "speak right out In
meetin'" about all matters, persons
and things that shall appear detri-
mental to our race welfare. At all
times we shall have an eye single to
the betterment and upbuilding of our
interests-to the uncovering Of what
ever may have tendency to initiate
against us. The modern searchlight
will be turned in our interest, and let
those stand aside who cannot bear its
searching rays.

A QUERY.
The Da0y nOldupS Look SuspieiOuS-Is
Anaconda a Parteep Criminis TO the
Recent RObberieS!

The rumor ahoat that the recent
bold and successful holdups in this
city were engineered by hired corps
of expert crooks and criminals en-
ployed by Interested parties to smirch
this city With view to working up
sentiment against Helena in the
pending capital contest, is not en-
tirely discredited by a number of
close observers. That these robber-
les were most skilfully planned and
successfully executed goes without
saying. The fact that our city Off
cials have thus far been unable to ap-
prehend the robbers gives color to the
opinion that they have done their
work, got their swag, pocketed their
fee and skipped the state.

THEY BRISTLE WITH STRONG POINTS.


The republicans in the recent
county convention adopted an unusu-
ally strong and vigorous set of reso-
lutions. They unanimously resolved:
That they favor system OF protect
i've duty so adjusted that every Amer
lean resource can be developed by
American labor receiving American
wages, and demand a tariff that will
accomplish these ends. That they
condemn the recent tariff legislation
enacted by the present democratic
congress as unpatriotic, sectional in
its provisions and subversive of the
prosperity and happiness of the peo-
pie of the United States. That they
denounce the action of congress in
striking down the principles of reci-
procity. That they favor such re-
vision of our laws concerning emigra.
tion and naturalization as will pre-
vent the admission of aliens belong
ing to the pauper and criminal classes
of the old world. That they demand
the free and unlimited coinage of
both gold and silver at ratio of six
teen to one, and that both be clothed
with full functions of legal tender.
That they favor the granting of lib
eral pensions to the soldiers and sail
ors of the Union. That they testify
with grateful appreciation to the
ability, industry and loyalty with
which the interests of Montana have
been guarded and promoted in the
congress of the United States by Hon.
Charles s. Hartman. That they call
attention to the fact that the peoples
party affords no promise of rendering
efficient aid to the interests of Mon
tana. That this nation attained and
enjoyed its highest prosperity under
republican legislation and republican
administration. That they demand
efficiency of administration and econ
omy In the conduct of public affairs.
That they demand that our repre-
sentatives provide by law for such ex-
penditures by the country as are es.
sential. That they demand that our
legislative assembly, which has here
tofore neglected this essential duty,
reduce to form and order our chaotic
statutory law. That they favor such
am endment to the tax laws as that
the taxpayers shall be permitted to
pay their taxes semi-annually. The
laws appertaining to non-contractual
interest should be so amended as to
reduce the same to not exceeding 8
per cent. per annum, and the laws re-
lating to exemptions of property from
execution should be adapted to exist
ing conditions and made more per-
spicuous. That tehy earnestly pro-
test against all forms of party inf
deity.
Resolved, That we highly COM
mend the action of Gov. Richards in
refusing against the appeals and i'm
portunities of the democratic press to
convene the legislative assembly in
extraordinary session, to be again as
sailed by the corrupt and venal in the
hope that their candidates could buy
a seat in the senate of the United
States. And in efficient care of all
the interests of Montana we heartily
endorse the state administration.
