NO, SUCH THING!

Tt is the people of Silver Bow county
against the Amalgamated Copper COM
pany-the same issue as in the state at
large.-Miner.
That is a most %egregious n fragrant
misstatement of the situation. The
Amalgamated Copper has
nothing to do with the case in either
county or state, and the people of Mon
tana will not accept the Miners state
ment of the issue.
The battle that is now on is between
the democratic party and what it repre-
sents and the republican party and what
it represents. That is the issue and that
is the only issue.
The republican ticket stands FOR the
administration of William Mckinley and
the principles set forth in the Philadel-
phia platform. It stands for Mckinley
and Roosevelt. In Montana it stands for
honesty in state government, for the I'M
PRODUCTION of business methods in every
department., for reform legislation, and
for legislation that shall be fair and
equal to all. In the county it stands for
economy and low taxes, for efficiency in
every county office, for the prompt and
just execution of the law, so that every
man, rich or poor, may be assured OF
absolute justice and the protection of
every right he possesses under the law;
for a sheriff who will treat all alike, for
an assessor that will assess all alike, for
judges that have brains and character,
for law and order and for peace and Sc
curity.
Thai is what the republican tickle,
stands for, and on that account does the
republican party ask the suffrage of the
people. The platform of the Silver Bow
republicans speaks for itself. The candi.
dates of the party stand squarely on tina
platform. Neither the county, the state
or the national ticket h anything t.
do with any mining company. The prop.

TooLE'S HUMILIATION.

1t is a fact susceptible of plain proof
and it will not be denied by n honest
democrat, nor by the nominee himself.
that Hon. Joseph X. Toole is a candi-
date for the g~overnorship of Montana
against the expressed will of the dele>
gates of the convention which first nomi-
mated him.
When the motion to call Mr.. Toole to
the platform was made in the Helena
convention last Monday evening was put
to the delegates, it was defeated by a
vote Of PA to 266, and Mr.. Joseph *.
Toole know it.
Notwithstanding hat fact, despite that
plain reproach and reputation. Mr..
Joseph X. Toole allowed himself to be
hustled to the stage and insisted on
making a speech of acceptance, while
more than half the convention was guy
ing, cat-calling and shouting MOI" at
him.
His %eloquence and nerve finally OBJ
tanned the mastery over the convention
llu Ia aSSCElollNC was oNNSk'1Nas eAN
Joe Toole, once the idol of the youns
democracy, the young Lochinvar of the
free trade party had lost his dignity, lost
his self-respect, lost the prestige which
an independent citizen always enjoys in
Montana.
Hon. II. L. Frank was the choice of
the convention the moment Joe Toole
declined and before. Mr.. Frank would
have commanded every democratic vote
in the state. There are no strings on
him and he would have made a business
like governor if elected, which this state.
the Lord knows, sadly needs.
But it was not to be. Mr.. Toole thrust
himself forward, ~disregarding the senti-
ment against him, unmindful of the vote
against him, oblivious of the ridiculous
figure he was cutting, and proclaimed
his acceptance.

LABOR IN MASSACHUSETTS.

There are a few democratic papers in
there has been an increase of either
wages or employment during the past
four years. Such ignorance. or men,
dacity seems incredible, and surely does
not mislead the public. Still we submit
the figures just prepared and printed by
H. c. Wadlin. chief of the Massachusetts
bureau of abor.a and statistics, his four
teenth annual report. It relates to 4,74O
establishments. representing IS ndus-
tries, and supplies information which
may explain why Massachusetts will give
10000 republican majority this year, and
also why every other state in the Union
where w~orkingmen are in control should
do the same thing:
The total amount paid in wage in the
4.740 establishments represented in the SO
industries increased 11.61 per cent In 1899
as compared With 1898. In the nine lead

The apparent increase in capital de-

with 1898. in all industries amounted to
S.l2 per cent. In the nine leading indus

his estimate of the common sense of his
auditors were we'll illustrated last week
during his trip to West Virginia. Some

Mckinley on account of his alleged ill
treatment of the Filipinos, asked Mr..
BRYAN chow about North Carolina ?'

franchised by the democratic party in
that state. Bryan, instead of making a
candid reply, resorted ar once to the

PEACE IN THE PHILIPPINES.

There are w reasons why the Philip
nine rebellion is not over.
The first is tina the rebels have re-
ceiyed such encouragement from the de-
mocracv that they confidently believe
thew will be accorded their independ-
ence unde an American protectorate the
moment Bryan, if elected, shall have
time to issue the edict.
The second is that thousands of ma
tiyes would only be too glad to accept
amnesty under the proclamation and
holm in the esta blishment of local gov
ernmen+ and so put an end to the war,
were it not that, fearing Bryan's elec-
tion. they are in terror lest the rebels
would murder every one of them accord
Ing to promise the moment Aguinaldo
and his hordes should be- free to do as
they please. "
1t is plain, therefore, that although
the suppression of the rebellion and the
establishment of government are max
ing good progress and will soon be accom-
plished, the present delay expense ar
bloodshed are directly attributable to thu
democratic party and it's leaders. TIL

A Brilliant Idea.

An eastern man has struck the
brilliant idea of pumping the surplus
water of the Mississippi upon the arid
plains to reclaim them. AT first this
seems the project of q crank, but after
all the future may pronounce the
project feasible. The Standard Oil
Company at present carries its petro-
leum by pipe lines from Ohio to the
Atlantic seabosrd, over the Ale
gheny and Blue mountains. Similarly
water could be carrie and pump
ed to New Mexico. Such
a pipe line and pumping stations would
not cost the government more than
it hasspent on worthless and impossible
harbors, and the future may see the
surplus water of distant rivers irrig at
ing the fertile mesas of New Mexico
and AriZona.-JournalD Democrat.

There can now be but little doubt
that an effort, at least, is making look
ing to the establishment of the pro-
posed Stillwell transcontinental rail-
way and unless some unforeseen event
interieree, the project will be carried
out.
In stating that the road would strike
the r o Grande some distance south OF

have the satisfaction of having given
correct Information, no matter in what
position on the line it may leave the
border metropolis.
