+ r you are a citizen of Montana and
if you keep up like a brave man
with the Montana procession, you
have every reason to carry forward a
kindly remembrance of the old year
and to anticipate with good heart the
Mate which the new year has in store
for you.
\ The year that has just made it's round
was kind to the people of our thrifty
commonwealth. 1t was a year that
brought blessings in temporal things
1t was prosperous year for mines, for
\ docks, for herds. All in all, it was for
nus a year of pleasanter experiences than
those with which the majority of the
communities in other parts of the world
were favored
I'm The stranger within our gates might
joyful for the Silver State, with silver
at fifty -nine-that was the closing quo
station for the year. But the average
stranger is not acquainted with the
splendid range of resources that are
giving enduring greatness to this state
The providence that equipped Mon
tana with it's limitless stores of copper
offsets and makes even more than good
the evil that befell the state as the re-
suit of the legislative crime which de-
prived silver of its rightful function in
n t1n of tc
who nicknamed Montana had it to do
over again, they might with propriety
call it the Copper State; the output of
the states mammoth plants would war
rant that designation.
Yet we are all glad to have Montana
known to the world as the Silver State
We glory in the name; we are girded
for our share of the work in fighting
silver's battle. There's no money for
any Montana mine in fifty-nine-cent sill
yer; it can't be produced here for that
the people of Montana that they can
live well and do well and be we'll
spite of the persecution of one
of their God-given resources and be-
cause of the variety of the states en-
dowment.
Thus the things present permit US to
hail with satisfaction the new year, and
to anticipate with the utmost confidence
the things to come, when silver gets it's
dues. Silver will get them. sure.

heat, each understanding the other,
each striving to help the other, as men
who are bearing common burden and
looking forward with a common hope
I know that this is the feeling of the

that it is the feeling of the people of

5 We can believe that when Senator
Hoar uttered these words he had In
mind the bit of history to
which we have referred-so, doubt
less. had many of his hear
ers. Senator Hoar is not the first
man of his line to visit the city of
Charleston. His distinguished father
was there before him. Samuel Hoar
who died forty odd years ago ranked
Massachusetts, man and an abolitionst.
In 1874 he was sent by the legislature
of his state to South Carolina to test
the constitutionality of certain laws of
that state which authorized the impris-
onment of free colored persons who en-
tered it. Mr. Hoar's appearance in
Charleston created a great stir. The
result was that on December 5 he was
expelled from the city, and on the same
q
day the legislature of South Carolina
passed resolutions authorizing the ex-'
pulsion.
The presence in Charleston OF this ex-
PEELED mans eminent son, for the
peaceful discussion of pending national
questions, is worth more than the wear
ing of dozen confederate badges in
proof of the fact that, happily, with all
American citizens some things are not
as they used to be.
The Anaconda standard. [volume] (Anaconda, Mont.) 1889-1970, 1899-01-01
1t All Depends.

TT depends on how you take it.
That confederate badge incident has
started a world of comment, espe-
cially in the republican press. And, as
that man in the Bible who proposed to
give a party, with one accord, these adj
ministration organs begin to make ex-
cuses. Somehow they seem to think
that in donning the confederate badge
the president did the thing he ought
not to have done-rather, they appear
to suspect that, in his recent swing
around the southern circle, Mr.. McKin-
ley overworked the reconciliation pol
icy, as far as the signs and symbols of
the late rebellion are concerned.
1t is pretty hard for such narrow or
gans as the New York Tribune, whose
editor is on the administration pay roll,
to say that the president did the right
thing at Macon. The Tribune felt
obliged to say something-all the news
Reid's editorial page went at it in this
gingerly way: "a great deal has been
said and written during the last six or
eight months about the completeness of
the reconciliation between North and
South which followed the demand for
united service against a foreign foe,
tn iel
men has contributed. The fact has
been recognized and proclaimed with
every appearance of joy and gratitude
in all parts of the United States, and
we see no reason to doubt that the ap-
parent satisfaction is real and deep and
practically universal. Now, if that is
the common feeling, we think it is fully
capable of enduring the pressure of the
Macon incident"
Which the same is faint praise. The
Tribune is one of many administration
organs which evidently wish the presi-
dent hadn't done it.
AS we said at the outset, it depends
on now you take 1t. More than that, 1t
depends on who does it. Bryan has re-
Gently made a talk or two before south
ern audiences. Suppose he had ap-
peared with a confederate badge pinned
to his lapel-just fancy it. By this
time the administration organs would
have worn themselves out with their
loud denunciation of him as a dema-
gogue. President Mckinley is a dema-
gogue; but he isn't clever about it.

A Real Token.

~ HERE is bit of history that is
made Of passing interest by the
a fact that Senator Hoar was
one of the orators at the banquet of
Jh,he New England society, given a few
yhts ago in the city of Charleston.
JAl that occasion Senator Hoars speech
II .ealt for the most part with the expan-
Hision question. He is opposed to con-
I, quest schemes, as everybody knows
who keeps in the current of public af-
fairs. He made pat remark, in ad-
dressing his southern audience, when
he said: I'VE have not yet solved the
problem how men of different races can
dwell together in the same land in ac-
cordance with our principle of republ-
can rule and republican liberty"
However, Mr.. Hoar's speech did not
ignore the domestic question which re-
ceived a new impetus as the result Of
President McKinley's recent speeche
At Charleston the senator said: The
best evidence of our complete reconcn-
iation is that there is no subject that
we need to hurry by with our fingers

West, may discuss any question Of pub

the war of 1912. Mr.. Morrill, opposed
the measure--it became known as a
free-trade tariff, but he did not have
in this opposition the united support
of the men, who, in later years, became
the sponsors for republican tariff legis-
lation. Charles Sumner and Henry
Wilson voted for it. Mr.. Seward
voted against it, but his colleague,
Hamilton Fish, voted for it. The two
Washburns, Schuyler Colfax and
John B. Thompson were among
the prominent members of the
house at that time. Nathaniel p. Banks
was speaker of the house; it all seems
so long ago.
Later on, but back in a past whose
actors have disappeared, Mr.. Morrill,
was among the men in public life who
hoped that the slavery question could
be compromised and war averted. He
had plan of his own, suited to that
era of temporizing. He proposed a
measure. in the session of 1S6O-61, de-
claring that neither congress nor any
territorial government shall pass any
law establishing or prohibiting slavery
in any territory until it shall have suf-
ficient population to entitle it to ad
mission to the Union. 1t was, like scores
of the schemes of that day, weak sug-
gestion and, like the rest of the plans
for compromise, it went down. Henry
Winter Davis, Thomas Corwin and
Powell and Crittenden of Kentucky
were among those who figured in the
debates of that day.
When the civil war came, Mr.. Nor
rill was a congressman with such men
as his associates, in either house, as
Zachariah Chandler, Benjamin F. Wade,
Lafayette Foster. Lyman Trumbull,
Henry B. Anthony, Charles Sumner,
Francis P. Blair Thaddeus Stevens,
Reuben E. Fenton, William d.
Kelley, Daniel w. voorhees,, Sam
uel S. Cox and others. These were
those who make up the present gener-
alton Of Americans read about in history
these are looked upon as men Of a
former time, the conspicuous exception
being Galusha A. Grow whose presence
in the house of representatives to-day,
after he had been quarter of cen
fury in retirement, seems like second
time on earth for that veteran.
Yet, to this country's older citizens
the events in which Mr. Morrill, figures
seem as yesterday. Had Abraham
Lincoln lived until last week he would
have been Morrills senior in age by
only fourteen months. In truth, this
republic makes history so fast that each
passing of a New Year milestone serves
to separate us unnaturally far from
men and events which are essentially
part and parcel of the times in which
we live
