JUDGE MACK AND DOUGLAS,

In the local columns in a commune
cation by Aft Cha1tz to the Genoa
Courier which charges that the citizen
of Douglas county propose TO take a
hand in sweeping Judge Mack off the
bench because of his fearless perform
anCe of duty last winter in the tbeT
lynching case. Is this charge is true
it shows a state of affairs that every
law abiding citizen will! deplore.
If Douglas county attempts such a
course it will simply insure the return
OF Judge Mack to the Bench for the
citizens of Storey, Lyon and Ormsby
county will not stand idle and see
such an outrage perpertrated, nor will
they permit a further exhibition o.
the disposit on of the lawless element
to run the community.
These people may have the power
to run a part of Douglas county, but
thev cannot control the other counties
of the District to the extent of punish
ing a Judge who with NO personal
feeling ii the matter did his whole
duty i'll this case.

h view of the case has led to a
hunt for the precedents I'm our naval

from the annals Of the civil war.
George Henry Preble was summarily
dismissed from the navy when i'm COM
mand OF the Katahdin because he
failed to prevent the Confederate
cruiser Florida from running out of
port and escaping to sea. His fleet
officer did not get the blame for the
escape n more than he would have
claimed the credit had Preble been so
fortunate as to destroy the Florida as
Schley destroyed the feet of Cervera.

whatever betide in this war, Dewey
Is going to stand unmatched. But the
theory is to make Sampson as good a
second as possible. Spite of officialdurn,
public opinion manifestly will not have
1t that way. Until lately the public
held Admiral Sampson in unstinted adj
miration: h public plays no favor
ites:" the public's good wishes were all
with Sampson.
But that Fourth-of-July-present dis
patch never did set right with the peo-
pie. and there is no hot-house process
that will grow for Sampson a reputa-
ton he did not earn on his ba%ttleship's
deck. No man questions Simpsons
qualities in the fighting line. But Ger
vera furnished to his enemy the oppor-
tunity of a lifetime, and Sampson
missed it.

annexation was not discussed because
Spain was not at war with America.
Since this war, however, all our people
are with America. At a meeting IN
July IL we decided to assist the United
States Internationally. The majority
of us favor annexation. Any talk of
the revolutionary party of Porto Rico

nonsense. I was at the meeting held

to make a republic of Porto Rico.
meaning as 1t does an internal strife,

There are some who are against an
nexation. but Tor who would counsel

Have IL Up To Date.

JUST as the house of representa-
tives was about to adjourn. at the
end of the session of congress-, a
member from Kansas attracted atten-
ton by asking that a resolution be
passed instructing the clerk of the
house to furnish for the speakers desk
a United States flag having the full
number of stars, before the opening
of the next session of congress. This
Kansan had made the discovery that
the flag behind Speaker Reeds desk
tigation in Anaconda and. through its
several offices in the state, in other
towns, the Standard has lately discov-
cred that many of the flags flying In
Montana do not carry the representa-
tive number of stars. Your flag ought
TO be up to date-if 1t is very badly
short of the full quota you have no
star for Montana on your colors. For
n reason or another. a citizen may
especially cherish a flag which has long
been in his possession or which is as
ISOLATED with memories well worth
cherishing, but, at any rate, the flag
that flies over a public building or that
is typical of town or municipality or
state. ought to be right up to date. and,
by all means, 1t ought to carry forty
ave STARS

As to the Bench.

ia GERELY by way of sugses-
I'M ton and to stimulate DISCUS
] sion." the Great Falls Trib-
une' in a well-written column Of edi-
torial comment. has advanced the
proposition that it would be a good
thing for Montana to keep its supreme
court organized on the non-partisan
plan. Practically. our supreme bench
is now on that basis. There is a popu-
lar superstition that there is. or was. a
leaven OF populism in the component
parts OF Chief Justice Pemberton's poll
tics; Justice Hunt is a republican: JUS
tice Pigott, who holds by appointment.
Is a democrat.
OF the present bench the Tribune
most justly remarks: Thus il can he
said that the three great political par
ties are at present equally represented
on the supreme bench. and at the same
time there is not one Of the number
who will not be conceded by all fair
minded men OF all parties to be amply
qualified by ability, character and
learning for the place he holds. Under
sHN pOAtNo SsSNtib VI stltGtlnE Judges
Of the supreme court We cannot hope
always to be so fortunate. Indeed past
experience has taughr us that much.
The future is liable at any time to em-
phasize the fact"
Giving it's views a practical turn and
writing with reference 10 the action of
future state conventions. the Tribune
adds: Let the three party conven-
tons. democratic. populist and repub-
lfcan. agree on the principle. and that
each of the parties shali nave one Judge
on the bench. as they have al present.
Then let them agree that zach conven-
ton will endorse the nominees OF the
other two conventions for supreme
court Judge, with the one sole proviso
that h men presented TO IL for en-
dorsement shall be men Of such per-
The Anaconda standard. [volume] (Anaconda, Mont.) 1889-1970, 1898-07-23

sonal character and attachments as
shall qualify them for the place. II the
candidate of any political convention
shall fail to meet the appreciation of the
other two parties whose endorsement
he seeks, then his party will be in duty
bound to withdraw him and offer an
other name for the consideration of the
conventions. In his way II is true that
only men satisfactory TO all three po-
litical parties could be nominated and
elected to the Office of the supreme
court. but on the other hand the voice
Of the people would be more potent
than ever in the selection of the court
and il would therefore be a step in
the direction of practical democracy.
In practice it would secure the reten-
ton of able. upright judges"
The plan thus proposed by the Great
Falls Tribune is nc novelty. II has
been tested. and the states that have
tried ii are not inclined to depart from
IL. On the contrary. the constituencies
that live under the plan become its
champions. The Tribune's suggestion
is attracting the attention of the state
press. The Helena Independent speaks
a~pprovingly of the non-partisan theory.
and applies 1t to the situation in these
words: IF the people of Montana de-
sire it. and we believe they do, the sit
uation is now favorable to inaugurate
the non-partisan system. The three
parties are represented in the court.
Judges Pemberton. Hunt and Pigott
command the confidence OF the people
and 1t is generally recognized that the
supreme bench as now consti-
tuted ranks high in comparison with
that of other states in the union. The
integrity and honor of the members
are above suspicion and they possess
the qualifications demanded by hat
high position"
