The Kalispell bee. [volume] (Kalispell, Mont.) 1900-192?, 1900-10-31

A short time ago as business man
ager of the Libby News, Mr.. Samuel
B. Pratt was doing what he could for
republican success in this county. Now
Mr.. Pratt is doing what he can for the
success OF the Clark democracy in
this county as chairman of their cen
trail committee. incidentally, the
Libby News is also working fer the
success of the Clark democracy Mr..
raft takes the Libby News right along
with him INTO the Clark camp, and he
wants to handle the honest demo-
Gratis of this county as he handles the
Libby News. and take them into the
Clark camp also. Just how success
full Mr. Pratt will be in delivering the
goods to the Briber, will be apparent
when the returns come in next Tues
day.

MIR. Dooley On Joe Toole.

Did you ever hear Joe Toole make one
of those spayches of his'n, Hinnisy?
You've missed half your loife, Hinnisy,
and no mistake. Joe Toole's spayches
are composed of aqual pa-arts of Florida
water and kerosene. Oh can't say its a
mixture Oi relish, but ivry man to his
taste, Hinnisy. Joe Toole gifts up and
he says: ladies and gintlemen, friends
and fellow citizens: Me illic,ion names
nayther the vindicaton nor the condemn
alton OF any man but mesilf,' he says.
LAS for Mr.. Clark" He says "Oi don't
know whether he's a boodler or IA minis
ter of the gospel" he says. "Oi don't
know whether he's an arch briber or a
sister of charity" he says. "Oi don't
know anything about it, Oil be domned
if Oh do he says. "All Oi know is the
necessity of illicting me governor of this
fair, young commonwealth, or the oxto-
bust will continue giving implement to
thousands of min at $3.50 il day. Oh
have no use for such min, for they laugh
me and Clark to scorn,' says he. Such

If bribery continues in Montana
it will be the fault of the people of
Montana. They have the power to
stop it and the issue is squareiy pre-
scented in this election. If the people
want to give up the making of laws
and the administration o. them to
those who are willing and able to pay
the most for the privilege, they should
vote the Clark Legislative ticket. If
they want to put stop to bribery
and to maintain the equality before
the law Of rich and poor alike, they
must vote against the Clark legisla-
we ticket. There is no escape from
the issue. The voters in this election
are either for bribery or they are
against it.

SILVER, PIE AND DOODLE.

Has it escaped your notice that
the only one OF the county platforms
which makes a declaration in favor
of free silver is the Independent Dem
ocratic platform? That is the fact.
The republicans make no pretense
of being in favor of free coinage
and the omission on their part is
doubtless intentional. AS soon as Nc
kinley was elected and got control
of the federal patronage the repub-
lican sentiment for free silver in Mon.
tana Immediately began to give way
to strong republican sentiment for
pie" and under the fostering care
of your Uncle Thomas Henry Carter,
the pie" sentiment has grown
stronger each day among the Mon
tana republicans, particularly in this
county. The pie sentiment was
the most notorious feature of the
two republican county conventions in
this town during the past summer.
Those who had been Remembered"
by Your Uncle Thomas Henry Car
ter, were in full control of both con-
ventlons and, on the theory that
pie" is greater than principle. the
silver proposition was unanimously
turned down, and the pie" principle
given the place of honor EVERYTHING
in both of these conventions was made
subservient to Carter, the pie" dis.
tributor, by those to whom he had
given liberal slices of the administra.
ton pastry, SO that there was Meth.
err time nor inclination to think of
silver.
Ordinarily different course of
procedure might have been expected
to characterize the democratic con.
vention. The national democratic par
ty is in favor OF free silver if it is
n 4avor of anything, and the demo
cratic party in Montana is also in fay
or of silver when the interests of sill
yer do not clash with the interests n,
Briber Clark. This was demonstrat
ed at Kansas City when Hauser. il

In casting their votes for state Off
GERS there is one candidate whom
the voters will do we'll not to over
look, and tina. is Alex Livingston, of
Park county, the Independent Demo-
cratic candidate for state treasurer.
Mr.. Livingston has been treasurer of
Park county for the past -FOUR years,
and has made an excellent officer.
1t is not likely that Mr.. Livingston
will ue able to come to Flalnead coun-
ty and interview the voters person
ally, but they may res; assured that
he is entirely worthy of their support
and LAT they will make no mistake in
voting for him.
The Kalispell bee. [volume] (Kalispell, Mont.) 1900-192?, 1900-10-31

ton, declined to vote to incorporate
a declaration in favor of free coinage
was only saved by the vote of the del
egate from Hawaii. There cannot
be any doubt that Hauser is in favor
of Clark. When Clark ''loosens up
there is no need for free coinage so
far as Hauser and the other Clark
leaders are concerned. 1t was the same
way in the local democratic conven,
ton. The men who controlled it are
all in favor of free silver There is
no doubt of it. But they are also
in favor of Briber Clark and he and
his "vindication" needs are the "par-
amount issue" with them. Conse-
quently they forgot all about a declar
alton in favor of free silver. Doubt
less they felt that if they took care
of Clark he would take care of them,
SO far as the money question was con-
cerned
So, the voters of this county who are
in favor of the free coinage of sill
yer have but one platform to stand on
this year, and it is the platform of the
Independent Democratic party. The
Independent Democratic party also re-
gard Clark as the paramount issue in
this state, but while they are fight
ing bribery they also have Wound
time to renew their allegiance to the
free coinage of silver. You will find
it in the platform.

During the term of Mr.. Sidney M.
Logan's incumbency or the Office of
county attorney, the expense OF that
Office to the taxpayers was $t5,933.3S.
During his successors term the cost
to the taxpayers was $7,l50.S5. During
Mr.. Logans term the average cost of
convictions was $l,5S6, and during
his successors term the average cost
of convictions was $3.50. So that
under Mr.. Logan's administration of
the Office of county attorney it cost
81 800 more to secure Il conviction
than it did to secure a conviction un-
der Mr.. Longs administration OF the
office. Figures don't lie," and the
above are a part of the official records
of this county. They deserve the
grave consideration of every
taxpayer. Can they afford another
term of Mr.. i.Ogan's admins
tratiOn of the office OF
county attorney? Any taxpayer
who thinks that he can, should be pre-
pared to forever hold his peace con-
corning extravaganza in other de-
partments of the county government.

The election in this county is all
ever but the shouting. The republic
cans and Clark democrats have al
ready given up the fight and the sue.
cess of the Independent Democratic
tickt is conceded. The moral sense
of the voters has been aroused and
they are determined to make :. clean
sweep of the Clark boodlers a,id the
Carter boodlers next Tuesday. The
friends of the Independent Demo
cratic legislative ticket are especially
sanguine, and with reason. The
cowardice of the county republican
conventions in refusing to deal in
any way with the course of political
perfidy and dishonor of their party
by Jaqueth, Geiger and Bywator, has
disguised honest republicans, just as
the raw work of the democratic con-
vention in the interests of the Hiiber
has disguised honest democrats. There

SCOTT ANSWERS COCHRAN

The West Virginia Senator Shows
Fallacy Of Statement That the
Money Question Cannot be an Issue.
New York Sun: Senator Scott, at
I Republican headquarters, this morn
ing Issued q statement showing the fall
Z u of5 w. Bourke Cockran's decIara-
ton thatsthe money question could not
be an issue in this campaign. because!lt
cannot be affected by the result:
In the first place. said Senator
Scott. II has been repeatedly demon
strated that II Mr.. Bryan should be
elected there would be at least an even
chance that the mex. senate would be
Democratic, and the house would be so
without any doubt. Furthermore Sec
rotary Gage has shown that Mr.. Bryan
ms President would. be. able to- pay}alf
the coin obligations In silver. Mr.,
Cochran simply denies that this would
be done, because he believes iii Mr..
sBryan's, sincerity.
Thls,is very queer kind of logic.
II Mr.. Bryan is sincere, the very first
thing he:would do. as President, would
be to oyerturn the gold standard. Four
Years ago he declared that the DEM.
ocratic party had begun a war OF ex-
termination against that standard. AT
the Kansas City convention he insisted
on the retention of the free silver plank
as a condition of his candidacy. AT,
Topeka the other day he5reIterated his.
silver doctrines without modification In
accepting the Populist nomination. and
at Omaha, day or two later. he stated
iemphatlcally. that the. policies for
which our people stand are directly an
tagonistic to the policies for which the
Republican party stands.
Again. Mr.. Cochran says that II Mr..
Bryan intended to use the power of the
presidency to nulllfy. OF, pervert the ex.
listing monetary law. he would not hest:
tate to proclaim his purpose now. But
when he was asked about his purpose
+ in this matter. at Lincoln. a few days
ago. he uid not hesitate most decided
lly-in fact. he refused to answer, and
the public has answered for him. with
entire satisfaction. 1t Is indeed, sur,
