this man, w. A. Clark, tamper with the
Montana legislature so successfully as
actually to suborn it's majority?
And it it is true that the Standard
has addressed its recent word of warm
ing to democrats in the legislature. 1t
is not within the range of possibility
that w. A. Clark, fresh from a violent
and vicious and bribe- giving attempt
to wreck the democratic party in the
great county of Silver Bow. can COM
mend himself to the democratic mem
bership as man who deserves demo-
cratic support for the senatorship.
That, we affirm, is not within the realm
of possibility.
1t simply remains to be seen how far
w. A. Clark can get in a raw, reckless,
-blooded. unblushing attempt TO
buy men. He has failed at it in former
years: just as certain as men fear God
he will fail again. But it is right and
proper that this newspaper should
raise it's voice with decent citizenship
everywhere in Montana, in protest
against this vllainy.
The Anaconda standard. [volume] (Anaconda, Mont.) 1889-1970, 1899-01-06

to resort to epithet, is that no good
comes from the abuse of silver's friends
and that you cannot silence the six and
half million citizens who supported
Bryan simply by sneering at them
Presently the expansionists will dis
cover. likewise, the error of their eX
pansion campaign by epithet.
1t will at least be admitted that the
radical departure from this country's
traditions proposed by those who are
raising the expansion hurrah presents
a question that has two sides. 1t will be
found, when the time for sober second
thought comes, that the mere, indis-
crimnate waving of the American flag
is not convincing argument. The state
ment made by Senator Vest sets forth
the serious objections to the annexation
plan and presents the question from the
standpoint of those who believe that our
government will make a radical and
far-reaching mistake if it commits it
self to the policy Of Philippine anneXa-
ton. 1t is a contribution to the study
of an important problem which we'll
merits careful reading.

You don't have to come within seeing

Marshal IS. 1t is not a boisterous
laugh, it is rather a joyous, mellow,
tenor laugh, but it has the penetrating
qualities of a Mauser bullet, and it
carries even farther. 1t is something
new in acoustics. 1t rolls, and ripples,
and radiates: it flies out of the hotel
lobby and goes dancing down the street

cause for gayety it is not visible to
the naked eye or audible to the naked
ear. Perhaps, though, the idea that
the IA republican members of the leg
islature are going to vote for Tom

after that look out. According to one
story, $250,000 has been set aside for
the purchase and delivery of 10 repub-

needed, when they are to be swung
in a body for Clark.
The people of Helena in general are

q EVERAL newspapers in large
~ fields are sounding the poll
ticians with reference to the
presidential possibilities for the year
1900. In its edition for January l, the
New York Herald printed scores Of
answers in reply to inquiries it had
addressed to republican and democratic
state chairmen.
Practically, these returns are all one
way; rather they are two ways-the
consensus among the republicans is for
Mckinley, while opinion is without
an exception in favor of Bryan among
the democratic state chairmen. AS for
the chairmen who declare for McKin-
ley, the Herald's list represents New
York, Florida, Vermont, Wisconsin.
Illinois Texas. Nevada, Georgia and
the groups of states of which these are
representative. The declarations from
state chairmen who favor Bryan repre-
sent Missouri, Illinois, Kentucky. Ne
braska, Colorado, Virginia, Texas and
other states where Bryan was strong
in 1896.
Incidentally. the Herald sounded the
spokcsmen of the other parties that
figure in national politics. 1t also asked
those whom it interviewed to say
whether. in their judgment, the war
had brought out any soldier who is
likely to become a presidential favorite
for the next election.
The Herald sums up it's answers thus:

the next presidential nomination; Will
lam j. Bryan is almost without a rival
| among silver leaders as the democratic
| candidate for the presidency; the re-
publicans will make issue upon the
financial question, the tariff and the
| questions arising out of the war with
Spain; the democrats will force the
| free coinage of silver to the front as
| the paramount issue; the members of
| the silver republican party will CO.

| the nomination of William j. Bryan;
| the gold democrats, or members of the
| national democracy, are inactive and

1t Is Worth Reading.

~ ENATOR VEST is everywhere
~ recognized as a man of brains,
~ as a cogent speaker and as a
crisp writer. He is known, too, as a
vigorous opponent of the annexation
projects that are Matching. The senator
has made the proposed conquest of the
Philippines the theme of a timely and
instructive paper which appears in the
January number of the North Ameri-
can Review.
This paper the Standard cordially
commends to those whose wish it is to
merits of the proposed annexation pro-
ject. No matter what your present no.
ton on the question may be, you can
be helped to intelligent conclusions if
you read both sides. The trick lately
taken up by the expansionists is not I'M
like the one TO which at first the enc
mics of silver resorted-the programme
is to silence the opponents of annexa-
ton by the process of epithet and ridi-
Guile; the man who hesitates about rush
coward who lacks patriotism because
he won't admit that this country can
do anything under the sun; he is also
denounced as an old granny" because
he declares that it is we'll worth while
to pay heed to the teachings of the
fathers of the republic in what relates
to foreign entanglements.
If you keep track of the comment of
the expansion press and of the talk of
the Pacitic-empire boosters you will
have noticed this parallel in methods
of attack on silver and on those who dc
not propose to be swept heedlessly on
ward into schemes of imperialism and
militarism. Those who fancied that
they could break down the free-coin-
age movement by resort to satire and
abuse, discovered their error; the warn
ing now raised by scores of goldbug or
gans, which, themselves, were the first
