ed. No silver republican, worthy the
courage that made him battle for the
right in 1896, will surrender his views as
age, in order to kiss the unwashed feet
of democracy gone astray: nor will he
forget the obligations that rest upon him
as a citizen and a man, when questions
vital to the welfare and prosperity of the
nation have blossomed into life over the
grave which tickle bourbonism has dug
for the free coinage of silver.

WHERE WAS CAMPBELL

The Hon. Adonis Jehosophat Campbell.
of Montana. did not vote against the re-
publican currency bill in the house yes
terday.
He was absent from his post of duty,
and was paired on that measure.
Some years ago when Senator Carter
was in the house he was paired on a finan-
proposition, II the democratic press
of this state finished the job of pairing
by skinning him in their editorial col
INNS.
Now comes the accredited congrassion-
al representative of the Anaconda Stand
ard with the record of an absenteetwhen
the vote was taken on a bill to lesalize
the single gold standard! =
Why was not Mr.. Campbell on the floor
of congress trying to prevent that meas-
ure from becoming a law? .
Why did not his silver tongue pour
forth a little melted lava for the adorn-
ment of the situation? &
Why did he leave the field of battlA
when the crisis was on?
Was he absent to assist in the work Of
preparing a silver republican kick against
the passage of a bill which he refused to
stand up and fight to its face?
Or. was he too busy signing a%fidavits.
showing the corruption of the democratic
party in Montana, to remain at his post
of duty when the climax came?
Is it possible that he recalled the bibli-
cal injunction to "Remember thy Gre
ator in the days of thy YOUTH and had
enough respect for the Amalgamated
Copper trust to abstain from casting his
vote against the gold bill?
Montana silver men would like to find
out why Congressman Campbell did not
remain at his post of duty when the gold
standard was being fastened upon the
country.

TIE ELECTION or Mr.. MANTLE.

The following excerpt is from the
| Flathead Herald-Journal, published at
Kalispell:
Personally we don't know whether
none was used to elect w. A. Clark to
the United States senate or that money
! was used to defeat him. Our belief on
that score cuts no figure. Like all good
citizens we would be glad if politics could
| be purified. would rejoice if our officers
from top to bottom could be elected on
account of fitness, ability and integrity. :
s. g IS st We have not the slightest
doubt but that W. A. Clark was as fairly,
honestly elected to the United States
senate as was Thomas Carter, Lee Mantle
or their predecessors.
The Inter Mountain has no objection to
the Journal having any opinion it may
choose respecting the subject of the cleo
ton of w. A. Clark as United States sem
ator, and whether his election was
brought about by bribery or not. Upon
that subject there is a wide divergence
of opinion in the state and the Inter
Mountain, in common with the disinter-
ested people of Montana who belong to
neither faction of the democratic party,
will await with keen interest the outcome
of the full and complete investigation
promised by the senate committee, at
which it to be hoped all the facts will
come out. In the meantime it cannot be
denied that a very serious doubt has been
the serious charges which have been
preferred against him and which are be-
ing aggressively followed up.
The Inter Mountain, however, enters a
most vigorous protest against the whole
sale grouping of names in the foregoing
excerpt.
The Journal admits thai it s'does not
know whether money was used to elect
Mr.. Clark to the senate but it has not
slightest doubt but that he was as
fairly and honestly elected as was Thorn
as Garter or Lee Mantle or their prede-
In other words, if it should de-
yelop that Mr.. Clark's election was secur-
through bribery. then, according to the
Journals logic. every one of Mr.. Clark's
was elected by the same
So far as Senator Mantle is concerned,
we venture the assertion that it has nev-
er been SO much as whispered that he Sc
cured his election by the corrupt use Of
money. On the contrary, the universal
comment at the time of his election was
that one United States senator, at least.
had been honestly elected to represent
Montana, against whom no charge of bril-
berry or corruption could lie. Mr.. Mantle,
himself, took great pride in the generally
acknowledged fact, and when the gov
ernor presented him With the certificate
Of election before the assembled thou
sands, he replied that 'it had come to him
~unstained by a single act which need
bring the blush of shame to the cheek Of
any friend or supporter of his"
It is not the purpose of the Inter Noun
tain to reflect upon any gentleman who
has filled the high office of United States
senator from this state, but SO far as MI.
Mantle is concerned we do not propose to
permit any reflection upon his election.

On December IA the Masons of the
United States will generally observe
the anniversary OF the death of
George Washington, who died Decem-
er IA, 1899. On that day delegates
from all the Masonic bodies in the
country will assemble at Mt. Vernon,
the home OF the first president and
father of our country, where most
fitting and elaborate exercises will be
held. 1t is probable, also, that various
lodges throughout the country will en-
joy special programs on that day, but
thus far the local lodges have taken no
steps towards its observance. The
grand master has decreed that on this
day all lodges may have the right to
publicly parade, and march in regalia
through the streets to any hall or
lodge room, privilege seldom accord
ed the fraternity. 1t may be, that the
public will be invited TO listen to some
OF the programs at points throughout
the state, and such privilege would
doubtless be enjoyed by many, who
never tire of hearing of the great and
good man who was first in peace,
first in war, and who is and ever will
be, first in the hearts of his country
men.

BUYS THE 1PEAVINE"
Burlington Finally Gets the o., FIT.
M. g D. M. Railway.
TRANSFER MADE SEVERAL DAYS AGO
Rumor That the ssPeayine', Would be
Absorbed by the Burlington Finds
Confirmation From Rec
liable Source.

The Burlington has absarbed the
I c. Fit. NJ. & d. NJ. railway, the transfer
taking place in Boston several days
ago, according to reliable private in
formation received by the FIT. Madison
Democrat. AS told in the Courier a
| few weeks ago the. matter has come to
the point where in a few days the fact
that the sale has been made will be
public property. To just what use the
Burlington will put the road can only
be conjectured but it can be very con.
lveniently used to complete the double
track from Batavia into this place, pro-
| vide shorter line for south bound
traffic and reduce the competition the
Burlington has hitherto had into this
lefty. These are REASONS enough for the
Burlington buying a controlling inter
lest in the "Peayine" but the only mys-
terry in the matter is what induced
the "Peavine' to sell or the San
ia Fe, which is popularity supposed to
have controlling interest, to let loose
| of the property.
| TIL exclusive information given in
the Courier few weeks ago to the eff
| feet that overtures had heen made to
the c., Eft. M. & d. M. Railway Co., by
! the Burlington looking to the latter
road absorbing the "Peavine" turns out
to be exactly as stated and the Fit.
Madison Democrat says the sale has
actually taken place. The democrats
statement follows:
From unofficial sources it is learned
| that the rumors of the sale of the c..
F.M. & D.M.railroad, between here and
Ottumwa, were not altogether ground
Hess. The sale was denied by; many
under-officials but not from the foun-
Itain head. and therefore people pre-
ferred rather to believe the rumors
Ethan anweals denial However. that
I-may be the sale of the controlling in
lterest in the road has certainly been
effected and the Burlington is the pur-
chaser. Reliable private information
from Boston, Mass, says that the sale
took place several days ago in that
Lefty, though there is yet no official evil
dence to confirm it.
| Fort Madison railroad people and
lcitizens generally have been watching
Eagerly for some authentic information
on the subject. Not many of, them
] who heard the rumor doubted that
such transaction had taken place or
WAS about to transpire, yet they passed
/ it quietly by in anticipation of some
thing more tangible at an early date.
What the transaction may bring
forth for this city or the future of the
Fort Madison" cannot at present be
determined, and doubtless the purchas-
ers do not know themselves, as the
''best laid plans o mice and men gang
aft aglee."

be embarrassed by a supertiuity OF as
pirap1s for the Office of state labor
commissioner, he might be saved con-
siderable trouble by submitting the Sc

would rest the credit or otherwise for
