The Anaconda standard. [volume] (Anaconda, Mont.) 1889-1970, 1899-11-07

=" quotes on this page the re-
narkable manifesto that ap-
speared yesterday morning in the form
of an editorial in the Butte Miner.
iMr. Clarks newspaper announces that
the charge against John B. Welcome,
NOW under hearing before the supreme
court, is that ''he is guilty Of prac-
ftices dangerous totthe standing of the
bar of Montana, in his efforts to secure
votes for Hon. w. A. Clark
To beginnwith, that is not a suffi-
GENTLY descriptive statement. The
charge in fact is that John 3. Well
come criminally used money in
amounts that aggregate a fortune for
..the bribing of members of the Mon
tana legislature in the interest of
Clark. That is the serious charge
At remains to be seen whether in the
Judgment of the court these significant
accusations are made good.
1 Mr.. Clark's newspaper characterizes
Mr. Welcome as IAN attorney second
to none in the state of Montana and
measuring up in ability and integrity
Ito any in the metropolis Of the state"
This much Mr.. Clarks newspaper
tndisputable fact is that this estimate
of Mr.. Welcome is one which, just at
this time and without satisfactory evil
dence, the people in Montana refuse to
approve-the best light they have COM
pels them to hold a different opinion.
g The accusations against Mr. Well
come involve not the bar alone but the
integrity of the state. If. indeed, he
is innocent, the supreme court may be
-Hrusted to attest that fact, and some
thousands of the citizens of Montana
will then cheerfully stand corrected
The marvel is that Mr.. Clark's news
paper and Mr. Clark's retainers have
fought step by step the movement
that will have it's climax in Mr.. Well
comes vindication. If to that he is
entitled At the present writing these
thousands of citizens may be pardoned
IL they do not accept w. A. Clark's
certificate of good character for the
accused.
!, 1t is quite true, as Mr. Clark's news
paper, with strange lack of adroituess,
implies, that the integrity Of Mr. Clark
himself is, to degree, involved in the
WELCOME inquiry. That is perfectly
well understood by the public; we sup
pose that the supreme court was not
standing in need of a suggestion from
the Miner on that score. No man sus-
poets that the big bundles of one
ahousand-dollar bills deposited with the
state treasurer are Welcomes own.
This money is said to be Clark's. The
Miner declares that it is Marcus Days.
The Welcome hearing may not settle
this disputed point, but the sequel to
the Welcome case can, and everybody
knows that.
I The wonder is that the whole Clark
outfit has so persistently Stunned pre-
liminaries which, like the Welcome
trial. will serve to open up the way to
other significant inquiries. These peo-
pie have resisted all attempts to bring
the truth to light. They have fought
fhe jurisdiction of the courts; they
have sullenly refused to testify: they
EoaX in in Sfn SlN oh a2
themselves. Indeed, till yesterday, it
did not occur to Mr.. Welcome himself
that the supreme-court proceedings
were worthy to be dignified with his
personal presence. Time after time
his case has been up in court. He

Equal to Anything in New York.

From the est. Louis) Ad-Writer.
One of the most remarkable news
papers in this country is the
Standard of Anaconda, Montana.
While it is published from the third or
fourth town of the state. it is undoubt
eddy the leading paper of the state and
is not surpassed by any paper in the
West. The tenth anniversary number
Of the Standard was so replete with fine
engraving and all up-to-date illustra-
tions and literary features as we'll as
news features, that it would do credit
to New York. the foremost newspaper
city in the world. Away out in Mon

the big papers in New York, Chicago
and st. Louis and the East. AS a
monument to real push and enterprise.
the Standard has no equal. May it
continue to flourish.

Triumph of ENTERPRISE,

From the Billings Gazette. -
The beautifully Illustrated edition Of

even the newspapers of New York city,
which are acknowledged to be the best
in the world

THE FIGHTING BLOOD.

Tn the Philippines).
He stands in the soggy trenches,
He fights in the broilng SUM-
He'll march while the tropic rain
drenohes,
An he'll keep it up until he's done.
He doesn't care much for expansion
There's never danger he heeds-
But he'll march or he'll swim
With countenance grim,
Wherever the officer leads!
Wherever the officer leads, boys
The ping of the Mauser he likes,
And he cheers and he jeers
Till he shivers their ears,
And the scared Filipino "hikes."
Gin the TransvaaD.
Wot does e care for the di'munds?
Wot does e care for the gold?
e pockets Victorier's shillin'
An does wotever e's told.
It's chin red line o. 'eroes''
Cut up by the shells O. the Krupp.
In the trenches e lies,
An cheers as e dies,
While the orficer-'e stands up!
1.-The orficer-'e stands up, boys.
e stands like 'e's on parade.
An we'll die where we lie.

It's the Irish blood that is thicker than
water,
The Irish and Scotch and Welsh
The English-the Anglo-SaSon-
That faces the lannon's belch.
It's the thin blue line of courage
That cheers in the mouth of the Krupp,
It's the thin line of red
OF the heroes that bled-
"An' the orficers-they stand up.'
It's follow the officers lead, boys:
It's shoot whenever you please"
Leave your fear in the rear
An give us a cheer
For the brother who fights over the
seas.
It's the blood of the fighting people
That flows at its countrys call
It's the blood that cares not for the rea-
son,
Nor asks for the reason at all.
Each flag has its white and its blue
stripes;
Each flag has its bright stripes of red,
That are dyed in the flood
OF the brave fighting blood
Which hunts for a chance to be she'd
Then here's to the blood that's for
fighting,
Till every stained war flag is furled-
The blood that means fight,
Be it wrong-be it right
The best fighting blood of the world.
