over their grand and petty larcenies.
si.t they reckcd little at tearing
away the iilmy guaze which at least
preserved them from the public

So the whole fabric Of the Rcpub.

THREE

The times are big with events today.
At Helena three state conventions are in
session.
There are the democrats, 10Th wings,
breathing fire and smoke, talking peace
n waving hatchets.
There are the populists, who have lost
their Importance in state politics except
as a possible balance of power, and
chiefly anxious to make a deal with
what is called the "bank" wing of the de-
mocracy, if the inducements are suf11-
cient.
There is the new labor party, an un-
known quantity. If it is guided by good
sense it will disband and it's members
will vote the republican ticket. Only by
that course is it possible for labor to
achieve the reforms it seeks and insure
good government and equal rights. The
party may fuse with the populists and
one wing of the democracy in the event
of a split. But that will not bring the
best results to organized labor in Mon
tana.

WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 10, 1900.
THAT RECORD AGAIN.

In view of the democratic record on
silver, what could be more dishonest or
idiotic thar the Anaconda Standards
criticism of Roosevelt because being a
single standard man he has the courage
to say so?
The Anaconda daily is a single stand
ard newspaper, but lacks the courage to
say so. hat is the difference.
Grover Cleveland and a democratic
congress repealed the purchasing clause
of the Sherman law and closed every
silver mine and mill in the west. Who
doesn't know that in Montana?
Not long ago it was the Standard
which editorially repudiated the very
essence of the silver cause by declaring
that it cared nothing for the ratio,
which, it added, should be regulated by
the worlds exchanges!
Then came the democratic convention,
with it's majority against silver, a three
days discussion to decide whether even
to mention it or not, it's majority of two
votes in the committee on resolutions,
the refusal of S. T. Hauser, the Montana
member, to vote for silver or go on the
record; and later the editorial statement
of the Standard that silver had to "step
aside at Kansas City to make room for
Imperialism.
Such are the facts. That is the living
truth. 1t is the record and had to be
gulped down by the Standard and Miner
every time they assail some man like
Theodore Roosevelt for not being him.
self an advocate of free coinage.
There IS not a well posted man in the
United States who honestly believes that
the democratic party or its western
organs are honest friends of silver.

PUBLIC
MEETINGS.

AT future republican meetings in this
county a committee Of one hundred
should be appointed and stationed at
various parts of the hail to throw out
the cheap loafers who hire out to dis
turb political gatherings and embarrass
public speakers. The sight of a few Of
these creatures disappearing through
the windows and doors propelled by hob
nailed boots of standard make would
have an educational effect as to the
rights of American citizens peaceably. to
assemble for the discussion of public
questions without being annoyed by paid
rowdies whose employers and masters
are afraid Of the effect Of reason on the
public mind. The reputation Of Butte as
a civilized town is involved in this mat
ter. TO have it reported that a stranger
from the east can not deliver an address
on politicical issues in the metropolis Of
the northwest would be an indelible dis
grace upon our people, n would justify
Grover Cleveland's remark about unde-
sirable states. =,
AT the same time we recognize the fact
hat when suburban do not
themselves treat strangers within our
gates with a decent amount of courtesy
and seek by indireetion to stir up a hos
tile personal feeling against them, re-

unconsciously played in the discovery of
America. The capture of ConstantinOple,
we have seen, supplied the last incentive.
Blu Constantinople was captured by the
Turks, and the energyr that inspired the
Turks was far from being entirely ag-
gressive. The c%onquering force Of
Mohammedanism had largely spent it.
self. Lik the great incursions of the
Goths and the Huns in Europe, the at
tack Of the Turks was caused by thu
pressure from behind. The organization
of the Mongol tribes In northern Asia by
Ghenghis Khan had made a conquering
people, and under Kublai Khan and Tam
erlane they overran nearly all Asia. I'm
able to withstand the pressure on this
side the Turks made their attack on
Europe.
But who was Ghenghis Khan, who or
ganized the Mongols as they We're never
organized before. and have never been
organized since? The answer to this
question, according to DR.. William Ell
lott Grriffis. is supplied by a chapter
from the history Of Japan. 1t appears
that about a thousand years ago there
existed in Japan a feud that manifested
itself in q manner in which that be-
tween the houses of Lancaster and York
manifested itself in England not much
later. In other words. between the tenth
inc the twelfth centuries Japan had it's
Wars of Roses. At one epoch Of this
series of wars it appeared that one of
the rival factions was nearly EXTERN
mated. The beautiful concubine Of the
leader escaped with three children. After
wards she returned and saved her own
life and that of her children by marry
ing he conqueror. Two of the children
were boys and when they We're grown
they rebelled. BY the genius of the
younger they conquered. 1t Is an inter-
esting fact tina the final battle of this
war was one between fleets in the straits
Of ~Shimonoseki, an important s~trategical
point in the history of Japan.
But when the victory was won the new
monarch had no further need of his tall
ented brother. Whether his suspicious
were correct or not does not matter.
The hero of the war escaped with some
of his followers and went to the MAIN
land of Asia. He was received with open
arms by the Mongols. Was made their
leader. He led them to victory. From
his Chinese name he became known to
Europe as Genghis Khan.
