.IllS LART PLAY.

In the state conventions last week
at Anaconda. after the democrats
had declined a fusion: with the silver
republicans and populists unless they
could virtually name 'aH the candl-
dates, Charley Hartman accepted a
nomination for congress from the two
latter parties. Since that he has
written letter to Candidate Camp
bell Of the democratic party, making
the proposal that one or the other
get off the tickets, and that the deci-
sion as to which should withdraw be
left to Hartman's particular personal
friends, the national clairmen Of the
three parties. CampbclEturnedt the
letter over to the democratic cXecu-
tive committee, which refused the
request All this seems to be the
last play Of Hartman to get back to
congress, as he believes he will be
badly beaten under present circum-
stances. or course, all this was done
under the same old plea Of the vel
fare Of "the cause Of silver" but it's
inconsistency on Hartman's part is
shown by the fact that he ever ac-
ccpted the nomination rendered. If
as he now claims, he is actuated solely
by a desire to beat the republicans

THE CAUSE OF SILVER.'

For twoyaars the democratic press
of 1.-THE state have laudcd Charley
Hartman to the skies because he was
doing his level best to break up the
republican party in Montana and to
make possible the election of demo-
cratic office seekers. During the cam
pagn Of 1896 they fairly slobbcrcd
over Charley, and called upon the
voters to return him to congress in
the interest Of 'the cause Of silver"
That year the democrats had. no can
didatc of their own for congress, and
they, Of course, did not Wanta repub-
lican elected, 50 they called him the
':truc friend Of silver and "legged"
for his success. This year it is diff
fercnt. The democrats, believing
after the disatfection of so many re-
publicans last year they could retain
them to vote for the democratic nom
nees, put up 4 candidate for congress
of their own. particular brand and
stripe, and as, Hartman is also run
ming for reelection, the democratic
papers are turning their batteries on
him and are declaring that he is a
traitor to silver because he had the
presumption to take a nomination
for an Office they wanted for one Of
their own number. And they are
now declaring that their candidate is
the only genuine xxx brand cham
pion Of ''thc cause OF fsilyer''-because
he is a democrat. AS II rallying cry

The resolutions passed by the pop

not been published by any paper SO
far. The Hamilton Times which is
supporting the candidates nominated
on and pledged to that platform,
should certainly print it, SO that the
silver republicans who the Times is
pleading with to support the said
nominees could see what they are
asked to endorse. TO enlightcn these
silver republicans, however, we will
state that the platform re-af1irms all

Temptation.
A SHORT STORY.

1t occurred in the most unromantic
way, and amid the most prosaic sur
r~oundings. There Is probably no po-
sition In the world more fatal to ro-
nance. or more likely to crush all SUI
perfuous sentiment out OF q mans
nature. than that OF a parish doctor.
The scenes Of squalld misery he is COM
PEELED every day to witness are more
likely to blunt and exhaust the sense
of pity in the average man than to
develop 1t by exercise, especially when
a little experience has shown how
closely they are associated with vice
and deceit, and how certain is the man
who gives way to his first impulslve
instinct OF charity to awake sooner or
later to the knowledge that he has
been cheated and laughed at ten times
by specious rogues for once that he
has been OF any real help to the I'M
fortunate. And he is apt to become
cynical In consequence.

In certain incidents which gave us an

business proposition In the following

"Yes." Papa General Arolas) told

They are all bad. When we meet
them, do not ask them to lay down
their arms, for they will come back
again, and get them. and probably at
tack us. Just shoot as many OF them
as possible. You can then take their
arms and clothing, and l will cut off
their heads, shave their eyebrows,

never really forgave us for refusing to
enter into partnership with him on this
very liberal basis.
