gian hare industry. The whole commu-
nifty seems to have gone crazy on the ques-
ton of raising rabbits Tie Belgian hares

whole page of advertisements of the Bel
gian hare industry, of rabbits for sale, and

breeds. and a distinct department devoted
to Belgian hare news"
The rabbits are always we'll patronized

Idaho, a democratic executive, summon
ed the federal troops to Wardner and
Governor Smith of Montana permitted
the authorities to take miners back from
this state to the ''bull pen.'' Gov
ernor Smith, to be sure, is no longer
a member of the dominant wing of
Montana's democracy, but he is yet
a democrat if he is not a %populist,
which is the same thing. Steunen-
berg's administration of state affairs in
Idaho was praised and endorsed in the
speech of the temporary chairman of
the Idaho democratic convention and
Steunenberg's supporters in that conven-
ton only lack two votes of a majority
on the question of seating the opposing
delegation from the Occur d'Alenes. So
even in Idaho there is almost an equal
division on the question of democratic
blame and democratic responsibility for
the Wardner affair. It prevented fusion
and it split the party. Montana papers
had better let it alone.

ACUIFALB5'S GOODNESS.

The Helena Independsntssof yesterday
tended to show thai A%guinaldo is 4 great
and good man and that the government
is wrong in attempting to enforce respect
for it's flag and obedience to it's laws
in the Philippine stands. OF course the
Independent, like all the rest of the anti
American and pro-Aguinaldo sheets,
quotes literally from every possible
source to prove it's contention and to
show what a merciless and inhuman
pack the administration and it's riends
and supporters are because Of their de-
termination to maintain the honor and
dignity of the nation and to SUPPRESS
armed rebellion in territory which be-
longs to the United States.
The trouble with the Independent is
that it ignores all the essential facts
| connected with the Philippine question,
our acquisition of the islands and the
causes and incidents which led up TO the
! attack upon the American soldiers by
| Aguinaldo's followers. 1t deals in a lot
! of maudlin sentiment but totally ignores
the practical and logical side of the ques-
ton. 1t prefers to take the word OF
| Aguinaldo and his supporters to that OF
such men as Dewey, Prof. Worcester,
/ Prof. Schurman, Hon. Charles DENLY and
brav We General Lawton. But we think
that an overwhelming majority OF the
American people will prefer to take the
| word Of the latter.

TIE PARTIES AND The 7HUS7S,

The trust question is not an issue in
upon a point whereon the parties are
agreed. The efforts of the democracy to
monopolize the opposition to unfair COM
binations of capital, it's purpose to dis
credit republican legislation, state and
national, for the control of trusts, and
its sneers at the republican platform
against the evil, all tend to prove that
the democracy is not sincere. 1t is sus-
pected that the democracy, in need of an
tissue or of more than one tissue has
merely utilized a great public question
division of party Or public sentiment. 1t
is probably the intention of the Bryan
ties to use the slogan down with the
trusts as a ~vote-catcher among the
classes who are opposed to capital in any
form and who will not recognize the right
of capital to combine by honest methods
for honest purposes. To be sure the
democratic platform distinguishes be-
tween righteous ana u~nflSnteOuS COM
binations, just Is the republican plat
form does, but the righteousness of CAPT
tai in n form will 0 be proclaimed
with much fervor from the democratic
stump.
The republican condemnation of "all
conspiracies and combinations intended
to restrict business. to create m%onopolies,
to limit production or to control prices
and the republican declaration in favor
of .such legislation as will effectually
restrain and prevent all such abuses, pro-
tect and promote competition and secure
the rights of producers, laborers and all
who are engaged in industry and COM
merce'' are a sufficient arraignment OF
the trust evil and an undeniable promise
of it's abatement.

s.monopolies are indefensible and intoler
able is a postulate. No one will defend
