of abandonment he now prays the

answer complaint of plaintiff and
on final hearing to grant him a
divorce, dissolving the bonds of
matrimony that exist between
them.

MANTLE ON THE WAR;.

Interviewed in Helena this week on
the war in the Philippines, ex-senator
Lee Mantle gave expression to these
patriotic sentiments:
The situation as it is, in my opinion,
is one that has been forced upon the
country, wholly without Dur consent.
The position in which we are placed
today is the logical evolution OF what
las preceded it. X y One mor
ing Dewey's guns doomed out at Ma
Mia and Spain's power to rule the
Philippines was forever broken. The
moment that was accomplished a great
moral obligation rested upon us respect
ing the citizens of Manila. We were
charged with the maintenance Of order,
the perfection Of the lives and property
Of the people there. We had destroyed
SPANS power to maintain order, and
by the requirements of international
law, the force Of which was admitted
by everybody, we were in honor bound
to preserve the peace until some from
of government had been established.
From that time there has never been a
moment, in my Judgment, when we
could have withdrawn our protection
with honor, dignity or safety.
There il an example of patriotism
for you that should Pat to shame the
Helena Independent, the Butte Miner
and the Anaconda Standard. "The
honor. dignity and safety" of the
United States are at stake in this I'M
fortunate war, and the newspapers that
are opposing it are attacking the honor.
dignity and safety Of u flag. They
will receive no encouragement, how.
ever, from the people Of Montana, who
are the most patriotic people on the
face Of the globe. They furnished the
first volunteer regiment for the war; it
has made the name Of this state glOr.
ious by it's gallant conduct and the
little American newspapers that are
constantly nagging at and finding fault
with President Mckinley are thus de.
tracing from the record made by our
brave troops. They are doing worse
than this; they are encouraging and
aiding rebellion and sedition. They
should pause and remember the posi-.
ton those newspapers were left in that
did the same thing during the civil
war in this country in the early sixties.

.ExPANsION IN MONTANA"

This newspaper. the other day, PRINT
cd this editorial paragraph:
Interior expansion is a subject this
county may take up some day. Is 1t
generally known that there are 7l,0OO,.
900 acres Of now arid, worthless land
in the country which is subject to q
state Of higher cultivation aud fertility
through irrigation? The water which
now annually runs to waste and causes
great foods. government engineers say
could be stored and used to reclaim
these lands.
And the Helena Independent, a few
days later, reproduced the above, under
the heading quoted, and commented
upon it, in part, as follows:
The esteemed Billings Gazette has
struck the keynote. If it will keep up
the argument future generations will
rise up and call it blessed. The Ga
zette is easily the leading republican
paper of the state and the party powers
that be will incline an ear toward 1t
when they would refuse TO listen to
like p%reachments from a democratic
newspaper. There is a field for good
work by The Gazette, as broad as the
whole irrigable west. Truer words
were never penned than these of The
Gazette. They are in line with the
article in the Independent a few days
ago, urging that the money now being
wasted in the Philippines could be used
xn S.,o,1o,c ,lunrtann an tho xUaGf
and northwest of the United States.
Support of our position by The Billings
Gazette is gratifying.
That is about as bungling an attempt
to commit "a patriotic newspaper to de-
clare against upholding the honor OF
the flag as we have ever seen. Our
editorial paragraph had no reference
whatever to the wal in the Philippines.
yet the Independent has the nerve to
say that support of its position by The
Gazette is gratifying, and goes on to
declare that the money now being used
to maintain the army in Luzon sis SC
much money destroyed"
Internal expansion, in the way of re-
claiming the arid lands of the west,
would be q great benefit to everyone,
which the Independent we'll describes,
but il those benefits are to be secured
at the cost at this government allowing
the flag to be dragged In the dust N

FRIDAY, JULY 2S, 1899.
To INSULT DEW EY.

II it is true. as reported, that Hon.
W. G. Whitney has left this country to
meet Admiral Dewey ell route and offer
him the democratic nomination for the
presidency, it will be al insult to the
worlds greatest naval commander.
Admiral Dewey, in the first place. has
emphatically declared that he would
not accept the presidential %nomintion;
that he has never taken any part IN
politics and never will. Again, for
the democrats to offer him the nomina.
ton, when that party proposes to at
tack in it's national platform the war
in the Philippines, which Dewey's
victory made a necessity, would be an
affront to that gentleman which should
not be permitted. Mr.. Whitney should
be muzzled if he has gone abroad with
any such intention. Admiral Dewey
is not a democrat, and if he ever had
been he would now be ashamed of his
party. As q party, it is doing every.
thing it can to discredit the admins
tration in the Philippines and to en-
courage the rebels. Its sympathy with
the rebels has already prolonged the
conflict; the democratic delay in the
ratification of the pece treaty, in fact.
is responsible for the war.
Besides all this, Admiral Dewey. in
drinking a toast to President Mckinley
at Trieste the other day, said: Good
health to him! I hope he will be u
next president. I really do hope that
Mr.. Mckinley will be our next presi-
dent" These three sentences irrevoc.
ably commit Admiral Dewey on the
presidential situation and it would
therefore be All insult to offer him the
democratic nomination. 1t would be
an assumption that he is not acting
in good faith; that he is q scheming
politician instead Of a noble patriot;
that he would dishonor instead Of up.
hold the flag that his hand raised at
Manila. If the democratic party is
willing to commit this reasonable act,
it should he restrained from attempting
to besmirch the record Of Admiral
Dewey by intimating that he would be
a party to it. He never will. and
should be spared the disgrace Of such a
proposal.
