THE WAITING POLICY.

1t is evident that puDlc sentiment IS
strongly in favor of the suggestion made
in these columns when the charges Of
legislative bribery were first submitted,
namely, that the election of a senator be
deferred until the work of the grand
jury shall have been completed. That
sentiment is being respected by the joint
assembly, and unless some unforeseen
circumstances arise, it is probable that
the daily balloting will show little evil
dence of concentration Upon any par
ticular candidate until the atmosphere is
cleared.
The remarkable fact that the gentle
man against whom the charges of
bribery We're aimed has q~uadrupled his
initial vote as a candidate for United
States senator must be accepted as evil
dence that a large element in the legis-
lative assembly disbeIieve the statements
made by Mr.. Whiteside. To refuse to
place this construction on the vote re-
that the balance of power in that body
a very large percentage of its member
~ship-were not only Indifferent to the
law respecting bribery, but were actually
corrupt. This would certainly be a vio-
lent Interpretation that fair-minded men
cannot afford to entertain without proof
of the most convincing character.
It, therefore, follows that those who
are in sympathy with the charges made,
as well as these who disbeliave them,
have every reason to defer final action
until the grand jury, to which was rele-
gated the charges of bribery, shall have
made it's final report. For either side to
the controversy to employ extraordinary
measures to close the contest for SEN
ator in advance of definite knowledge
as to the corrupt practices alleged, is to
arouse a suspicion of weakness. The act
of the joint assembly in asking for a
grand jury to Investigate into the truth
confidence in that body to ascertain facts
important for the guidance of the legis,
lature in making its final choice.
The investigation presumably will pro
coed along various lines, for while Their,
is a divinity which doth hedge a king
no such restrictions are placed on
Montana grand jury. 1t has power to G
into the election methods which mad
it possible for some of the members o
the legislative assembly to sit in tina
body, and it ought to do so. AS long a
fraud, coercion and bribery go un
checked in the political affairs of tn
state, just so long will influences be sc
at work in legislative assemblies fo
"stratagem and spoils."
A wholesome and thorough airing {
some of the political debauchery of tn
late campaign, by a grand jury qualifie
to act, would be worth more to the futul
of Montana than any legislation prom
