The Supreme Court.

From the Great Falls Tribune.
The average voter appears to take more
interest In the question of who shall be
sheriff or treasurer I'm the county he lives
In than he does OF the question of the
personnel of the supreme court of the
state. This should not be so. There is not
a place or the ticket which will be voted
at this coming election which concerns
the voter more closely han the supreme
court bench. The Tribune has a firm con-
viction that the supreme court as at
present constituted Is all right. IL has
shown conclusively that II Is just as ready
to protect the poor man I'm his Just rights
as II Is to protect the millionaire corpora
ton from injustice. II Is not a cour that
allows musty precedent or fine-spun legal
technicalities TO obscure its %steadfast pur-
pose to search out the equity of the case
brought before II. The Tribune earnestly
hopes that Judge Pemberton and Judge
Pigott will be reelected to the positions
they hold. and II would say the same
thing IL Judge Hunt. the republican mem
Der of the bench. were running for re-
election this year, as he will do two years
from now. II Is not because Judge Penn
berton and Judge Pigott are on the dem
ocratic ticket that we appeal to our read
ers to vote for them. but because they
have been tried and found not wanting
when the interests of the people came
before them with no influence to back
them except the Justice of their cause.
We are sorry TO add that in these latter
days of corporate influence, not many
states can boast a supreme bench so far
above suspicion OF Influence by the money

these are the two points that are worth
the public's attention respecting the In
ter Mountains course:
First. the Inter Mountain Il de-
~nouncing Campbell because he voted
against the eight-hour bill. but when
the senate OF which Campbell was a
member defeated the eight-hour bill
which never had found a line OF sdvo-
papers Indifferent announcement was
h it's well TO let well enough alone.
Indeed. the Inter Mountains words
were that "the senators who killed the
eight-hour bill evidently proceeded on
the idea that Il is well TO let well
enough alone"
Secondly. he Inter Mountain de-
nounces Campbell. in the much-pro-
famed name OF labor. because he voted

nected with the states statistical bureau.
From FIRST to last during the entire leg
i.iatlve session, when this matter was
debated, the Inter Mountains total
comment about IL is In these two
sentences. which we quote from the In
ter Mountains file: "A few men In
Great Falls have petitioned the legisla-
ture against the abolition of the Office
of labor and immigration commissioner
The petition vas started by a man who
wants the appointment. and II Is signed
by those who know nothing about pre-
vailing conditions"
Mr.. Campbell was an active and in
f~uential member Of the senat thai
killed several bills which the Inter
Mountain at this late date has sud
denly become interested in. The Inter
Mountain supported not one of these
bills when they were before the legis-
lature. But 1t took frequent occasion
to praise the senators who killed them.
Thu work Of voting them down was dis
tinctively The senate's work. n In
high praise Of that work the Inter
Mountain said. on he day OF the legis-
lature's final adjournment: The Inter
Mountain is pleased to note the emil
nentIy conservative bearing Of the state
senate during the session OF the legis-
lature just closed. That body was COM
posed OF very able gentlemen whose dis
tinguished services were marked e
lures of the session. II is also quite as
pleasant to note that the same conser-
vatism. the same wisdom and the same
ability which distinguished the senate
this year will. in part. be transferred 10
the next session of that body" How
does II strike you?

From the New York Evening Post.
The task of obtaining the ideas for Sun

are ~ subjects which always pan out"

scandal, fads. freaks. hideous animals,

From the Dillon Examiner.

one Of the states leading Industries. Its
continuance will benefit. Indirectly at
least, every other line OF business carried

tion Of the voters TO the immeasurably
greater benefits to he derived from the
enactment INTO law Of the great policy adj
vocated by the democratic ~party-the free
coinage of silver at the ratio of l6 to l.
Who can successfully dispute that
free silver coinage would mean for Bea-

ministration was to dc all that in Its
power lay to save middle-west con-

were stump performance.
President Mckinley, with equal pro-
priety. might have Included New York
