WHO ARE TRAITORSP

The Anaconda Standard in a column
article yesterday came to the defense of
the men who denounce President McKin-
ley as a military tyrant-a man seeking
he blood of liberty-loving F.lipinos in de-
fiance of the teachings of the fathers of
the republic, etc. The men so m%isrepre-
Eenting the president and encouraging
the rebels of Luzon the Standard regards
as patriots, going into history in sup
port of it's claims and regulating the
charge of treason which republicans are
making against them. Treason is defined
as giving aid and comfort to the enemies
Standard defends give to the Filipinos,
who are in armed rebellion, all the aid
and comfort within their power. The
Tagals are fighting with no other hope
than that which democratic orators and
organs extend to them in the event of
Bryan's election. General Lawton's let
ter to John Barrett proves it. Admiral
Dewey's authorized interviews prove it..
The proclamations of A%guinaldo and the
appeals OF the Hong Kong junta prove
it. The statements of the officers of the
First Montana volunteers prove it. Let
ters that are coming from Manila on
every steamship prove it. The war would
long ago have been ended but for the
belief of the rebels that the islands will
ne given over tn ra nina nv tho with
drawal OF the troops should the democ-
racy triumph in the next election. II
the men whose every public utterance
is an incentive to the rebels to light or
are not traitors to their country's cause
then what are they? What milder tern
can be applied to them, unless it be fool.
Or knaves?
But that is not a new policy with thu
democratic party. The Chicago Times
Herald quotes from the speech of Glen.
ent L. Vallandingham in congress on thu
l4th of January, 1868, as follows:
History will record that. after nearl,
six thousand years of folly and wicked
ness in every form and administrator
of government, theocratic, democratic
mOnafchlc, Ollgarch1c, deSpOti ant
mixed, it was reserved to American
craftsmanship in the nineteenth entur
of the Christian era to try the gran,
experiment, on a scale the most cost,
n gigantic in proportions, of creatin,
love by force and developing fraterna
affection by war; and history will record
too, an the same page the utter, disas
trous and most bloody failure of the ex
pertinent"
In that speech ~Vallandingham calle,
the president king Lincoln" and urge
the people to "come together at the ballo
box and hurl the tyrant from the throne,
Is not that the same sort of talk tn
democratic press are now hurting a
President Mckinley? And why? Simpl
because under a treaty which the senat
and Bryan himself approved McKinle
is seeking to restore order and safe
guard life I'M property in territory G
the United States, it's sovereign title t
Which no ane man has yet disputed
Had Mckinley pursued any other polio
he would have been open to the graves
criticism. AS chief executive of the ma
ton his duty was to put down rebellion
He had no right to abandon the island

A RUMP

Upon what argument will the minority
delegation to the state repubiicap con-
vention apply for seats in that BODY?
What honest man with a serious face will
summon the nerve to defend the action
of the minority and ask for the admis-
sion of the delegation headed. BY Hon.
John w. Cotter and Hon. G. r.. Leonard +.
The reasons if truthful, will have 70 be
something like these:
ID That the movement origina Ted vita
a minority of the county coalinit@,-who,
without reason or excuse bo1ted the
committee and called primaries of theiS
own.
tO Tina arrangements We're maHegwita
democratic mine owners for tho loan
of a few hundred democrats and popu-
lists for use at those orimaries.oa ~
80 That at the convention F~illegally
called and illegally held slxty-two. dele
gates We're chosen to represent the party
at the state convention.
(D That these men will applyafor ad-
mission and hold a convention of their
own with ether di%sgruntlsd gentlemen
and nominate a second state ticket or
support the democratic ticket if not ad-
mitted.
10 That although the delegation is OBJ
POSED to mining company dictation. it
represents q mining itself ana
nothing else.
IGN What t1>a Ia1 rn + TN = !, ~ - NV, -.
opposed to the idea Of mining mpa
lawyers being put forward to control and
regulate political conventions and that
Hon. John w. Cotter and Hon. 9. r.
Leonard will themselves explain tie dan
gsrous tendencies of such manipulation.
Other gentlemen will expose in all it's
naked ~hideousness the peril Of corpor-
ate dictation and denounce every man
having more than $40 as an enemy Of the
state and a menace to industrial enter
prise. They Will also warn the party
against lawyers on general principles
and point out that William S~callon. John
F. Forbis and W. II. Dewitt are three
Of the toughest propositions now at large
in this state and that they must be driv-
en- INTO the democratic party if possible.
90 That no compromise goes, that the
party must be divided and kept apart in
order to be successful and that in union
Is there weakness and disaster.
90 That the minority delegation must
be admitted in order that the republican
party may be compelled to take sides in
mining suits and become an instruner
in the hand of one company as against
another; otherwise there will be a bolt
in. every county in the state where
enough men can be found to make up a
trump ticket and the whole party from
Mckinley down will go to everlasting
smash. The rule or ruin faction of tn
republican party is now on deck and nus
be recognized or chaos will come again.
