Hartman on Expansion.

Hon Charles 8. Hartman Montana &
popular ex-congressman, delivered the
Fourth of July address at Hamilton,
and his speech was among the best
ever heard in Montana, says the Dillon
Examiner. One of its brightest gems
was his reference to the expansion
policy. Mr.. Hartman said: With APP
propriate apologies to those who, in
the name of manifest destiny pre-
pose to establish the American govern
ment in the slave business, | quote
from the language of the great emanci-
pator. L believe that this government
cannot endure half slave and half free. ;
Nor do I, my fellow citizens, believe
that the American government can
not endure half republic, half empire.
When the United States protects her
citizens, her property, her honor and
her dignity. she has performed her
duty. She is not charged with the duty.
as nation. of going to and fro among
the civilized or savage people of the
earth to force her peculiar kind of gov
eminent on them and inject her special
brand of liberty into them with 49,

Colonel Wallace.

The announcement of the appoint
ment of Lieutenant Colonel Bruce Wal
lace. OF the First Montana volunteers,
to be colonel Of one of the two veteran
commands largely composed of soldiers
serving for the past year in the Phil
ippines the 3Tth regiment of United
States volunteers), occasioned many
expressions OF cordial approval by our
people who know the man and are con-
versant with his splendid military rec
ord. says the Helena Herald. The dis
patch from Adjutant General Corbin
notifying Senator Carter Of the appoint
ment, as soon as it reached the public
through the Herald's news columns,
brought forth words of gladness from
everybody about town, for everybody
was intensely gratitied. The president
had determined to retain this splendid
officer in service with rank at least
equal to that capably and brilliantly
held in the magnificent Montana First,
but the way opened for a full regimen
tai command through the wise selec
ton of General Otis. and the president
without hesitating gave immediate as
sent to the appointment The home
folks here in Helena. neighbors and
friends who have known him from hoy
hood, are immensely reioiced over the
wired announcement from Washington,
and the people of the whole state viii
be just as heartily pleased when lii-
good news reaches their homes. Con-
gratulations to Colonel Wallace.

A Victory for Higher Education.

In the Endorsement of the special
election last Saturday of Mr.. Lose
kamp's free county high school bill, a
good sized majority of the votes cast
show that the people of Yellowstone
county are progressive in their ideas
and are ever ready to take advantage
of whatever offers along this line. says
the Billings Times. The result of that
election is a clear victory for the ad-
vocates of higher educational advant
ages in our own county. at our own
door. if you please, for the children of
the middle and poorer class of our
citizenship This is the class sought
to benefit by the author of the bill.
and the Times congratulates the farm
ers. mechanics and lab0ring men Of
the county whose children will partake
largely of the benefits to flow from the
establishment of this school in our
midst. and also John d. Losekamp.
who is not only the author of the bill
and who succeeded in passing it
through the sixth session of the Mon
tana legislature by practically unani-
nous vote. but who got up from sick
bed last Saturday and put in the whole
afternoon in getting voters to the polls
for the glorious success which has at
tended their combined efforts

When the BOYS Come Home,

At the risk of the displeasure of those
who revel in celebrations, whooping
and fireworks, the Whitehall Zephyr
says it does not see any real sense in
some of the plans to give the Montana
soldier boys grand and hilarious re-
ception. We preface the remarks with
the statement that, in the estimation
Of this paper, nothing is too good for
those boys who come back from Ma
Mia. But the good will and undying
friendship of the people can be shown
to returning soldiers in a better and
more substantial way than by noise
and fireworks. Nearly all of the boys
who went to war left positions or bust
ness. They will have to start over
again-most of them at least. They
will have to seek employment or begin
again in trade. In view of that fact
it seems to us that a plan that will
help the boys to positions or to bust
ness opportunities will be a more last-
ing testimonial than the biggest har-
um-scarum time that could possibly be
conceived. The private soldier, especi-
ally in foreign land, who lives upon
his paltry pay, is doing well. The
chances is that not one man in len Of
the Montana soldiers will have $50
when the troops arrive home. plan
that will aid the boys to step into po-
sitions without idleness that will eat
up their small savings, if they have
any, will be better scheme than any
ella borate or costly reception that could
be arranged. The show and tinse of
the average reception" soon passes,
and oftimes is a greater injury to the
honored than help. The efforts at
substantial aid may miSCarry. but the
aim is higher and the result usually
more satisfactory.

WHAT THE PRESS OF MONTANA
FINDS TO TALK ABOUT

Ex-senator Lee Mantle is already in
active training for the gubernational
race next year, says the Dillon Ex-
aminer. He will be the candidate of
the now thoroughly harmonized and re-
united republican party and has the
full support of Senator Carter and the
administration pie brigade in Montana
OF course, Lee Mantle and his personal
organ, the Inter Mountain, have gone
over to the gold bug camp, body and
breeches, and for this reason his can
didacy should and will prove accent
able to the administration followers
including our senior senator. who knows
thing or two about practical politics,
eNenifhe did not make a bowling sue
cess as chairman of the republican com
mittee in 1892 Carter, who is an avow-
ed candidate for reelection next year
probably figures that Mantle would
strengthen the republican legislative
tickets in the various counties and
thereby insure at least fighting chance
for an increased republican represen-
tation in the next legislative assembly.
1t would be sort of ''bimetallic' plan
of campaign. Mantle could 'whoop her
up" for silver, while slippery Tom
would be engaged for still hunt for
gold bug support, and in this way both
kinds of game could be successfully
duped and bagged OF course, Nantes
election as governor will not material
ize for the simple reason that there is
not enough gold bug voters in Mon
tana. Carter undoubtedly realizes this
fact very well, but he has some hopes
that with Mantle at the head of the re-
publican state ticket enough silver
votes will be cast for republican legis-
lative candidates so as to elect a few
more and thus give that party a re-
spectacle numerical strength in the
next legislature. Then, in case of n
prolonged senatorial fight or deadlock,
Carter would avail himself of every
opportunity to slip back into his sena-
torial seat He can be relied upon to
do that trick successfully should the
least chance present itself. Mantle, in
the meantime, will have fallen outside
of the breaStworkS.

The Hasty Quarrel,

There is a new-made grave in the
camp of Jardine, and beneath the fiinty
bosom Of mother earth sleeps Mark Ter
rell, who died by the hands of violence,
receiving his death wound amid the
hasty words and blows of a sudden
and heated quarrel. says the Living
stOn Post. Too often the pages of the
Post have been given over to accounts
of such deaths as his. Stretching back
through the years of Park county's life
IS a long train of these grisly horrors,
most of them black with the foul stain
Of murder and all of them causeless
and bitterly regretted as deeds done N
the heat of passion must ever be. Men
complain because so many. who have
imbrued their hands in another's blood,
have gone scott free and unwhipped Of
Justice The reason for this is plain
most of the crimes being the result Of
sudden heat and the fruit of the ever
ready revolver. There have been few
cold blooded murders. Nearly always
when the deed is done everybody is
sorry, the Culprit is a good fellow, and
the perverted public sympathy turns
the man loose. The remedy for such
evils as bore its bitter fruit at Jardine
on the night Of July 4 is not hard TO
md. Do away with the practice of
carrying fiTearms without a permit

REGARDING Gun IrAnS.

The question of whether or not a man
has a right TO set a gun trap to protect
his property, is one which is now being
agitated by the people of this commu-
nifty, without much show of an mmedi-
ate solution, says the BOzeman Chron-
icle. Those in the negative argue that
the taking of a human life is not JUS
tified because stealing is lesser Of
Tense than that penalZed by death.
On the other hand. those in favor argue
that Adams, whose case is in point,
had been harrassed for months by
thieves who broke into his cabin and
stole what little he had. 1t wasn't
much. but it represented great deal
to him. Being obliged to work away
from home, he decided that he would
protect his property and he set about
to do it in a way that meant death to
intruders. Others would not have in
vented so violent a safeguard, but
Adams had dealt with tramps who in
fest the railroad, and he concluded
that one of their lives wouldn't count
for very much. AS is usually the case,
Adams succeeded in killing a good man,
and there is more condemnation poured
upon him than otherwise would have
been. Indeed, it is a noticeable fact
that when the killing was first reported
and it was presumed that hobo had
been removed, public sentiment was
dormant; but when $500 was found,
public opinion veered to the side of the
money in proclaiming Adams crime
sufficient to place him in the penitenti-
airy for many years. There appears to
be no law in this state against the gun
trap. If a man decides to protect his
property in that way apparently the
law is with him. We believe that it IS
an inhuman and monstrous thing to
do: but, at the same time. we are also
of the opinion that Gallatin county
would have difficult and costly under
taking were it to bring Adams to the
bar of justice in the hope of convict
inc him

An Old-Fashioned stitch.

popular this season. A new floss too
that is heavy and silken in appearance,
but is not so expensive as the silk floss,
is used to work out these simple but
artistic and effective designs. In table

from the court. Inforce the law and put
away the death dealing arsenal which
so many carry to their sorrow. Then
no crime of this kind will be known,
and when a murderer, with the chill of
malice in his heart, does his deed OF
darkness, he will get no sympathy, as
the man wronged in hasty quarrel
who excites the compassion of men Of
temper who would probably have done
the same thing themselves.
