Hoodwinked, bamboozled deluded,
fooled to this great betrayal they may
henceforth watch as idle spectators the
play of those Aforces which preserve the
republic, but theyawill have no share or

direction. The pride of the common
wealth has been humbled and great
humiliation has befallen us ALL They

at the head of those rotten boroughs
which are the shame of all decent citi-

whip of scorpions to draw the line be-
tween debauchery and fidelity
ITO the four men who stood amid this
wreck and ruin, faithful among the
faithless, there is exceeding great re-
ward. Not in sordid gold. but in the
esteem of just minded men their action
stands forth like bright deed in a.
naughty world, like a rich jewel in an

Helena, Jan. 2S.-'Not for 100000
would stand in the shoes of anyone of
those IL republicans who voted for w.
A. Clark" said Representative William
Lindsay tonight. ''They will be exc
Grated by the republican party and de-
spised by all mankind
Already the Clark people, having
profited by their votes, and the people
of Helena generally, are treating the II
republicans with scorn and loathing.
Already honest men shun them. Clark
won out with the aid of these II repuo-
lican votes. He did not need all Of
them. He could have got along with
SIX But he thought he would buy
enough this time in case a few of his
purchased republicans should fail him
at the last moment, as was the case
six years ago. Now he would have
enough and to spare. He fell down
once and he would take no chances
again. 1t took a pot of money to do it,
but he had the pot. They came high,
them.
He wanted to be elected by democratic
votes if possible but he could not get
more than total of 3S democrats to
save his black soul. Moreover, he real
iZed that he had to be elected right
away if he was to be elected at all. The
few honest men who, under pressure
of various kinds, were voting for Clark
had grown exceedingly restless and
were right on the verge of mutiny.
Some of them had declared that unless
Clark was elected at once they would
break away and vote for Joe Toole. 1t
was to-day or never with W. A. Clark.
Late Friday night John B. Welcome,
the manager of Clark's Doodle fund,
was eloseted with several of the re-
creant republicans and fixed -, the
deal. 1t had to be made, else the Clark
boom would have collapsed as sure as
fate. All the week the Clark boodlers
have been trying to buy up the requi-
site number of democratic votes. Con-
rad and Maginnis men have been
offered during the last few days all
the way from $4,000 to ss5, 900. The
boodlers cannot deny it. AS a matter
of fact, they do not deny it. 1t has
been a nasty days work, but there is
one thing that the people of Montana
can take pride in and rejoice over and
that is many poor man was tried in
the balance of honesty and not found
wanting. There are men in Helena to-
night who are poorer by all the way
from $4,000 to $4,000 than they might
hace been had they voted for W. A.
Clark, but they are feeling better satis-
fed with themselves than many a man
who did take the money and did vote
for Clark. Especially have the four
republicans who resisted the devil and
stood loyal to their party reason to be
proud of themselves. They are receiv-
ing kilograms from republicans all over
the state praising and eulogizing them
in unqualified terms.
All told, Clarks election must have
cost him fully s75OOOO. Some estimates
place it as high as a round million.
But singularly enough it has been fol-
lowed by no enthusiasm in Helena. In
disputably public sentiment here has
been drifting away from Clark for three
or four days. The undisguised manner
