Some Who Took Brides.

~ NE is not easily inclined to be-
lieve the story that Quay has
certain purchased democrats on
whom, when all else fails, he can
count report to this effect has been
current
1t cannot be expected that any demo-
crat would vote directly for Mr.. Quay
unless there should be a breakup and
an attempt to turn the democratic vote
to some republican candidate. In that
event it can hardly be doubted that
certain democratic members would I'M
prove the chance to vote for Mr.. Quay
for what there is in it. Quay himself is
ROT counting on any support of that
sort; he has intended a different style
of game. His favorite scheme has been
to make democratic help available by
getting number of democrats to be
conveniently absent some day. and then
get for himself a majority of those
present.
There have been two attempts in
Pennsylvania-one successful and the
other a failure-to corrupt enough
democratic legislative votes to elect a
republican senator. In both cases the
legislature was democratic on Joint bal
lot, while at this time it is republican.
There is nothing in the history of these
audacious conspiracies to warrant their

A DIRECT VOTE.
Bribery Methods Furnish a Good Argu-
ment in Favor of 1t.

Bribery Methods Furnish a Good Argu-
ment in Favor of 1t.
From the Western News.
In commenting on the recent most dis
graceful exposure in Helena, the Billings
Times makes some good points in favor
of an amendment to the constitution taxi
ing away from the legisla ture the selec-
ton of senators and leaving the selection
to direct vote of the people, 1t argues
that the cost of corruptng the whole
electorate of the state If such an undesir-
able achievement were possible, would be
too great for the most free-handed mil
lionaires to pay, and the people would
make as free a choice as for other offices
The spectacle presented in the senatorial
fights of Montana, Pennsylvania, Ohio and
many other states should suffice to con-
vince right-minded men that the selection
of senator should be taken from the legis-
latures, to which venal members are all
ways bound to be elected. The chief OBJ
lection is that the present method is pro-
vided for in the constitution and hence
it is the only correct way. The trainers
of the constitution had no reason to fore
see that this would become a land teem-
ing with millonaires Of inordinate ambi-
ton, and they, themselves, If it were now
in their power. in the light of this coun-
try's experience, would probably decree
that the matter be left to the people.

Helena if their candidates. were submit
ted to the vote of the state how many
would be seriously consdere>.. Take w.
A. Clark, for example. What, excepting
his immense wealth, is behind his candi-
dacy? What is there to recommend him
but his nefarious practice of bribery? 1t
is very doubtful if he could carry by pop
ular vote a precinct in the state. And

- ENDING the results of the hear
~ ing in the grand jury room
Representative Kelley of Silver
Bow brought in an Indictment, yester-
day, in the joint session, that surely
ought to have weight with democrats
who are honest in their action. Be
cause w. A. Clark could not control
the democratic party in Silver Bow
county," said Mr.. Kelley, ''he has
fought it with all the fury that tire
less energy and abundance of wealth
can command" Every democrat in the
legislature knows that this is true.
When, therefore, Mr.. Gibson of Madi-
son switched yesterday to Clark, on
the plea that this was his duty t'as a
member of the democratic party" he
dealt in sophistry that may satisfy his
own heart and conscience, but he
knows full well that no honest demo-
crat in Montana believes him.

In the democratic state convention held

in the democratic state convention held
prior thereto.
The democrats in the legislature of
Montana, in a former year, proved that
they would not let it be possible for
Clark to buy republicans enough to
elect him to the senate. They will sec
to it that he does not buy the senator
ship this year. The fight they have to
make is against million dollar bribery
proposition. It's a hard fight, but those
who are fighting Clark bribery-vast as
the bride is-will win out. And when
they meet again in state convention,
they will, as the River Press remarks,
point with pride" to that splendid
achievement.

kIPLiNC'S NEAT DEDICATION.

From the Pittsburg Dispatch.
Julia Marlowe received a Christmas gift
from Rudyard Kiplng in the form of
copy of his latest book Miss Marlowe
used to pass her summers a Four Winds
farm, an idyilic spot up in New Hamp-
shire, where she was neighbor to Mr.. Kip
ling on his Yankee estate.
The book is The Days Work. and on
the fly leaf in the authors handwriting
are these lines:
When skies are gray instead of blue
With clouds that come to dishearten;
When things go wrong, as they sometimes
do
In life's little kindergarten.
| beg you, my child, don't weep and wall,
And don't. don't take to tippling;
But cheer your soul with a little tale
By Neighbor Rudyard Kip!ing.

teach lesson of vast import.

iSpctiIioH' Dut, on the contrary, lney
teach lesson of vast import.
In the legislature of 1867 the demo-
Gratis had majority of five or six on
joint ballot. Their candidate for sena-
tor was John w. Forney, then by all
odds the accepted democratic leader of
the state. except Mr.. Buchanan, who
had just been elected president and who
desired the election of Mr.. Forney as
senator, on personal grounds. Three
democrats deserted their party in Joint
session and voted for and elected
Mr.. Simon Cameron. The treachary
and crime created great excitement in
the state and throughout the Union.
AS Montana we'll remembers and holds
up to infamy the names of the Coder
aggregation of republicans in w. A.
Clark's unsuccessful campaign of 1898,
so Pennsylvania keeps always in view
the name of Lebo, Manear and Wag-
gonseller. 1t was with difficulty that
these three We're saved from lynching,
lin Harrisburg. Said one of the foremost
newspapers in the United States, few
days ago: 1.-The case of these three men
in Pennsylvania was one of clear and
unquestioned bribery. They were dis
graced and dishonored men all their
lives. The money was dearly purchased
In the counties where they lived even
their innocent families were the victims
of reproach."
Pennsylvania politics has the record
of another attempt at bribery in SEN
atorial election. Again it was a Cam
eron candidacy and Charles r. Bucka-
lew was the democratic caucus nomi-
nee. In joint ballot the democrats had
one majority; this time they solemnly
resolved that they would not be sold
Quit was distinctly given out that
any democrat who betrayed his trust
would not be allowed to leave the capt.
tai alive. 1t was accepted as a fact
that this warning would be made effect
i've and there was no treachery on that
occasion. Bride money had been given

Current Comment.
Too Funny for Anything.

From the Chicago Times-Herald
1t appears that Consul General Wild
man was custodian of the Filipino indie
pendence fund, and he has been sued by
the Filipino committee at Hong Kong for
$4,000. which is said to have been left in
his care. When it is remembered that the
government was constantly warning him
that he must not commit himself in any
way to the insurgents the significance of
this latest revelation will be fully appre-
ciated. AS diplomat Mr.. Wildman is an
amoosin' cuss-but too cussed amoosin
for Uncle Sans consular service, which
is not menagere.

Bribery Hits Montana Hard.

FTOm the Forsyth Times.
The bribery charge that has scandalized
the legislative halls of our state is of a
character that justifies the outside world
in the conclusion that Montana is still
outside the pale of civilization and IAN
undesirable state" 1t is hoped and con-
fidently believed that the fullest investi-
CATION will be made to the emu that the
guilty may be punished and the stigma
removed from the fair name of the state.
