the RESCUE Al r

The Inter Mountains press service
brings news that the relief of the for
eigners in Pekdn is an accomplished fact.
The punitive expedition is made up of
Americans, English, French, Germans
and Russians and being but 20, 1000 strong
was thought by military critics to Pc In
adequate to work of marching 70 the
Chinese capital in the face of the Chinese
+hordes. FODDER valor and skill, however,
have made the expedition a success. The
Chinese forces seemed to melt away after
their first defeat and hardly a shot was
fired during the remainder of the jour-
ney. 1t seems incredible that a mixed
force of 20, 900 men should be able to die
tate terms to a city of a million people
and rescue prisoners who have been held
as hostages whose stories the Chinese
must know will inftame the civilized
world; yet that is the fact. Ii Hung
Chang tried hard to delay the foreward
movement, to save the dignity of the
Chinese government, by declaring a truce
till terms of surrender could be arranged,
but the nations were obdurate. The
American government itself was particu-
larly determined to brook no delay, to
have no temporizing but at all hazards to
do it's duty to the imprisoned Americans,
to rescue them first and talk afterwards.
The government at Washington desired
no Chinese territory, it favored no divi-
sion of the empire, it asked only an open
door for its commerce, but chiefly it de-
manded first to be put into direct com
munication with it's minister, and second
" it demanded his safety and that. OF all
other Americans at the legations The
American policy has t~riumphed. The
splendid frmness and courage OF the
president were never more successfully
displayed. In a few hours the world will
be thrilled by the story Of Minister Con-
ger and his friends. -g 80 80

MARK HAKHA rs ne Is.

No man in the United States has been
SO shamefully abused with so little rea-
son as Senator Hanna of Ohio. Follow
ing is a pen picture of him from the gifted
pen of Murat Halstead who has known
him for a lifetime:
Marcus A. Hanna has Deer the target

aimed their poisoned arrows. He Is not
the man the blackguard would have us
believe. l know h his labors and his
influence W. been in Ohio, and they
have been good TO rthe state and the ma
ttion. l think I know he entered politics
and too an active interest in public af-
fairs because he believed it was the duty
of business men to do so. That which he
has done proves he was right about it.
The country owes him a debt of graft
ing him. He is as unlike the nan SIAN
dered in print and in blather as he is in
figure and face a Tehuke to the cartoon
list. He mas thrived on rayening injustice
and Astounding abuse. 1t Is not money
that gives him power. He Ina the gift
and it is an inheritance of brains. I saw
him on a rainy night under a tent that

sister fell out Of . window and vas killed
while Its mother was out at work in a
clothing factory. The Independent does
not assert that the baby would not have
fallen out OF the window II Its mother
had been visiting a neighbor, nor does
1t, even claim that her wages were not
higher than -four years ago, so that, really.
the accident to the baby has no demon
strated connection with the republican sys-
tenn Of protection and the question Of
wages. In other respects, the argument
of the Independent Is conclusive.

rHf REPUBLICAN CONVENTION.

Let no republican In Montana be appre-
lest some corporation control
the nominations of the next republican
convention. 1t is a thing impossible. Tint
republicans of Montana are able and are
to control their own
ton and to nominate men without sus-
picion of connection with any corpora
ton. There are thousands of such men in
the republican ranks and some of them
will be the choice of the convention. Any
statement to the contrary is false, Is
made with intent to deceive, is put forth
in the democratic interest, is coldly cal
culated to disintegrate and d~isorganize
the republican party.
The Inter Mountain would be h first
in the state to warn repubh-
cans of the danger Of corporate control
and to condemn any corporation which
should undertake to secure such control.
The republicans of Montana own them
selves. They propose to assert and II
necessary fight for their rights. They
will present a united front against any et-
fort to hand them over to my corpora
ton. But they do not propose to be driv-
en- out of their own party by any alarm
sounded by the democracy concerning
a corporation that may not undertake
to assume any Objectionable attitude as
to the states politics. 1t will be time
enough to take alarm when there is some
evidence of danger. Forewarned Is fore
armed. but it is folly to begin shooting be-
fore the enemy appears in sight. The
democratic party is in far more imminent
peril of being swallowed by the corpora
ton monster than the republican party
and is far less able to resist it's ad-
vances. The republicans are able to take
care of themselves and they will nomln-
ate none but independent men.

JUST TRIBUTE TO STEVENSON

The modesty and seasoned states
manship of Adlai E. Stevenson stands
out in striking contrast to the bufoon-
cry and egotism of his competitor.
True, he has never written a magazine
article about himself, nor attempted to
belittle other men to increase his own
Importance He has never posed for
popular applause, nor stood upon a
pedestal and discussed the Immortality
of other men. In addr essing his fell
low men he has never found it neces-
sary to carry about a company of
clowns, armed to the teeth to impress
the people with his strenuous virtue.
In the good old way which character
lied the statesmen of an elder time he
discusses political problems with dig
nifty and judgement, He has grown
in the public service, and his greatest
ambition no doubt is to preserve the
republic of his youth. Mr.. Mckinley
recognized his craftsmanship when he
made him the Democratic member of
the bi-metallic commission. For four
years he served with dignity and i'm
partiality as the presiding officer of
the Senate, winning the admiration
and respect of all regardless of political
differences, Among his neighbors he
is idoIized. The address he made at
the nonpartisan reception given him in
Bloomington, Ill.,, was gem of beauty
and good taste. To emphasize the sin
cerity of his own views, he does not
find it necessary to denounce those
who disagree as "scoundrels" and
''cut- throats." Since his retirement
from the Vice Presidency he has ira
veled extensively in Europe, and his
political observations while abroad
have but confirmed him in his Ameri-
canisms. He is content to stand for
the old republic. Indianapolis Sentinel.
