MONTANA'S NEW SOLON
MULTI-MILLIONAIRE CLARK A Sill.
VERITE OF THE BRYAN STRIPE.
He Is Also in Favor of Protecting Raw
Materials-On the Fence Re-
gardizg Expansion.

HELENA, Mont, Jan. 29.-Cnted States
Senator-elect William A. Clark is a free
silver man and although a Democrat is a
protectionist as far as raw material is con-
cerned. Mr.. Clark was asked to-day
to define his position on the financial ques-
ton. Il stand" he said, for the restora-
ton of silver to its former status before its
decentralization in 1873 and at the ratio of
l6 to l. In the arrangement of the tariff
schedules the producers of raw material
such as wool, lead, sugar and other prod
ucts of the Western States should be amply
and fully protected The present tariff in
cludes sufficient revenues to meet the ex-
penses of the government and in the read
justment of the schedules, while it should
be provided that the manufacturer should
receive protection against cheap foreign
labor, which is eminently proper and just,
they should be content Herewith and not
seek an unfair advantage over the produc-
ers of raw material as has been the tendency
heretofore"
Mr. Clark declined to say i'm specific terms
whether he was an expansionist or not. We
may be well proud" he added, ''of having
driven the Spaniard from the western hem
lsphere and from the islands of the Pa
cifc ocean and on having lifted the yoke
of oppression from the necks of y 100000
people, yet, elated with this marvellous sue
cess, we must pause to consider with the
OF the people who have been liberated and
provide for them a just and appropriate tenn
porary government, bearing in mind the
danger of foreign diplomatic entanglementS.
1t is an experiment that will put to the
test the highest craftsmanship, but | be-
lieve we can safely rely upon the abilities
and patriotism of the people of the United
States to solve the problem with justice
and satisfaction to all concerned.
