The silver republicans of this state are

WEBSTER DANS.

While tine democratic newspapers are
printing the beautiful biographical
sketch Of Webster Davis it Is a fact
worthy of note that they carefully omit
one OF the most tragic events of his life.
They say nothing about the time when
in Kansas City on a dark night he shot
his hat full of holes and. s%hrieking that
he had been assassinated, swore that his
assaifants were Catholic priests in order
to stir up prejudice against the religion
they taught. What must be thought of
political party which places on a
pedestal such a hypocritical miscreant,
actually invites him to address it's rep
resentatives In national convention, and
boasts of his conversion to the glorious
principles eff democracy? IT was a proud

Webster Davis, Charles A. Towne. and
General Weaver-that is the precious
trinity upon whom Mr.. Bryan largely de-
Ponds this year for election TO the presi-
dency. Davis left the republican party
because it would not involve this country
in a war with Great Britain on behalf of
the Beers in South Africa. Towne left 1t
because the people of the congressional
district he once represented refused to re-
elect him. Weaver is a g~reenbacker and
was once the populist candidate for the
presidency. He is a disgruntled crank
and supports Bryan because the demo-
cratic platform is just such a patchwork
of crazy and impraoticable ideas as he
himself would advance were he write a
platform himself. These three men were
among the most prominent of Bryans
advisors at Kansas City, the other three
being David B. Hill, a pronounced gold
bug, Richard Croker, one of the chiefs
of the American Ice trust and the very
embodiment of political ward heelerism.
and Senator Tillman Of South Carolina.
a man who publicly glories in the sup
preston by force of several million col
ored votes in the south, while, with the
voice of a bull, he denounces the admin
~istration for seeking to establish govern
ment in the Philippines without the con-
sent of the governed" What democratic
paper in Montana will deny that the six
men here named, Davis, Towne, Weaver,
Hill, Croker and Tillman, were the lead
ing spirits at the Kansas City convention
this month and that they will dominate
the administrator of Mr.. Bryan in the
event off his election? The Standard and
Miner may shout Hanna" and trusts
until they are black in the face, but that
will be no answer to the proposition that
the democratic leadership is now in the
hands of six of h worst and most dam
gerous men in the United States. What
has become OF the old time democratic
leaders? Where are Cleveland, Carlisle,
Thurman, Hoadley, Campbell, Whitney,
Hewitt, Morton of Nebraska, and scores
of other democrats who erstwthile sup
piled the brains, responsibility and money
for democratic campaigns?

THIS PAPER'S POSITION.

The Gazette is gratifed to note the
political course of the Butte Inter Noun
tain in the present campaign. Although
published in a community which was the
hotbed OF 16 to / four years ago, to which
cause that newspaper was then welded,
the Inter Mountain has now fully iden-
tilted itself with the party of progress
and prosperity and is daily dealing out
ssledge hammer blows against the nomi-
nees of the Kansas City convention. Elk
Senator Nantes newspaper is not only
widely read throughout the state but it's
power for good in the republican cause is
equal to the immense circulation which
the paper enjoys among the voters of the
state.-Billings Gazette.
The Inter Mountain appreciates the
friendly sentiment which prompted the
foregoing. 1t is quite true that four
years g this newspaper led in the fight
for silver and did all that lay in our
power for it's restoration. We did this
in common with fully seventy per cent
felt that in doing so We were redeeming
our pledges and the pledges made by the
republican party, and that we were serv-
ing a patriotic purpose.

have not regretted the course they then
followed because they have the consola-
ton of knowing that they were actuated
by high and unselfsh motives. What
they do regret is. that the party with
which they temporarily allied themselves
should have proven itself so utterly un-
worthy of the confidence they gave it
n thus rendered the sacrifices they
made u%navailing.
Silver Is no longer an Issue of any sor,

BOSTON PATRIOTISM

The Miner copies approvingly the fol-
lowing from the Boston Traveller:
Every soldier from the Philippines that
can BIT crowded into a transport shouid
be dispatched for China Immediately. Let
the Philippines take care OF themselves,
let them go if necessary. The ffrst DUTY
is to save the Americans at Pekin. Drpio-
macy should be alloWed to go hang ana
the aid of Japan or any other nation
should be accepted ITO make the march to
China's capital.
The above suggestion is too silly to de-
serve republication. There are ten times
more Americans in Mamie than in Pekin.
Aguinaldo and his rebels would massacre
the entire white population of Luzon's
capital Within "a hours after the with
drawa1 of the American troops. The rebe
leader is waiting for the election of Bryan
in the hope of being given a free rein. 1t

Traveller are willing to help him in his
mLrderous designs by suggesting the
withdrawal of the UNITED States soldiers.
