Live Issues Left Out.

~ OVERNOR BOB SMITH has been
o. in tight quarters a good many
times. but yesterday he had the
closest call Of his life. What would he
have beer this morning, and where, If
the resolution discussed in the Silver
Bow populist convention yesterday had
prevailed; that was a resolution the
force and effect Of which would have
been TO put the governor out Of the
populist party. 1t would have been all
up with the governor-he had a mighty
close call.
But what difference does II make to
the people Of Montana whether these
Silver-Bow populists praise Bob Smith
or "trow him down. as was attempted
yesterday? The convention, remark
able as it was in it's methods and utter
ances. was immeasurably more remark
able for what It didn't do or say. The
most conspicuously prominent populist
IN Montana to-day is State Superintend-
ent Carleton. What does the partisan
Inconsistency Of a populist governor
amount to, compared with the official
derellction of a populist sniper who, in
disgracing this states system Of pub
lie education. has made Montana hang
its head in shame?
What odds Is Smiths politics, now, to
the people of Montana? The meanes
sort OF onense has been charged against
the populist superintendent Of public in
struction. and after hours Of formal in
v~estigation. which he solicited, he
couldn't persuade the state board Of
education to vote him a clean record.
No matter about Smiths politics.;
what about Cartoons record? The pop
ulists wasted their wind over things that
are not essential.

there would still be serious objection

The Anaconda standard. [volume] (Anaconda, Mont.) 1889-1970, 1898-09-18

The Standard is inclined TO think that
to the great majority Of these people
the sprinkling Of battleships is no more
Objectionable bar the sprinkling Of
streets.
AS 10 whether Il shall be water or
wine tastes differ. Some people prefer
the one and despise the other, and
vice versa. Miss Letter has shifted the
responsibility over onto Governor Tan
ner. She says she will use whichever
material the governor directs. The
Kentucky. IL will be remembered. was
officially christened with water. but
informally with whiskey. dozens of
patriotic Kentuckians hurting their
whiskey tasks at the b~attleships
sides. Possibly the people Of Illinois
can agree upon a similar compromise.
The christening Of American battle
ships seems TO be becoming a grave
religious question-to some people. To
others the controversy is simply
mdicrous. The christening by cham
payne is a time-honored custom. If ii
is TO be preserved at all, the custom
should be preserved in the regulation
alcohol. Christening a ship by water
is nonsense-iust as christening a per-
son by champagne would be idiocy.

the fact remains that Maine was ex-

Current Comment.
Doubt as TO who Won.

From the Louisville Courier-Journal.
There Is a general impression that at
considerable cost to ourselves we have
had a war in which we whipped Spain
and in which she lost every foot OF Cuba
and Porto Rico. Hostilities were certainly
terminated on that understanding. And
yet Americans are not permitted by Spain
10 enter Havana, unless through special
favor; Spanish exactions on American
trade are not only continued, but in
creased, and charitable provisions for the
starving of the island are not allowed to
land without paying to the Spaniards an
exorbitant ''rake-off.'

That is a rather shrewd reply of Joseph

About the time the United States has
settled all the difficulties she has tackled

with a wink, presumably. The moral of

1t has been found that the highly

or disease n little more quickly than men
who nave never been especially distin-
guished on the athletic field. The doctors
are of the opinion that the long and Sc

athletic contests put too great a strain on
the vital organs. and leave them in a
condition not ft for the demands of pro-
tIacted hardship and privation in the
