E1Ou. H. ~ OI11lLD VI llt O1efSIaQQ ia
zette had in a public speech referred
to the flag Of his country as dirty
rag" that gentleman stood on his head
and tried to spit backward, and in his
lucid intervals hurled several kinds of
adjectives at his enemies and made
noise enough with his pen and mouth
for 16 men of his size.
Ordinarily a little thing like that
would have been passed by in silence.
but 1t so happened that Mr.. Smith was
a candidate for office, and if he did
not succeed in giving the lie to his ac-
Cusers and in proving that he is an ar
dent lover of Old Glory 1t was not his
fault. Nobody with an ounce Of brains
paid any attention to the charge; no
body cared rap whether he had abus-
ed the flag or praised it, for they well
knew that nothing that Mr.. Smith or
anybody else could say could detract
one iOta from it. But Mr.. Smith SEEM
ed to be Of opinion that the statement
evidently made in a spirit OF raillery
was an attack on his patriotism, and
he seems to have thrown a fit three
times a day until the day Of his cleo
ton to the legislature Of Ohio. Since
then he has been vindicating himself
in his paper, and roasting every other
fellow who has said anything against
the administration.
What boots 1t If Mr.. Fortune did
criticise President Mckinley? Is he
not now q good administration Repub-
lican? Isn't he doing as much or more
than Mr.. Smith is doing to secure the
reelection of the president? Is Mr..
Fortune a paramount issue in this
campaign? He is not a candidate for
'any Office, big or little, but just q
plain, aggressive Republican, with
views which he is not afraid to ex-
press, and he'd be a big fool If he
didn't change his opinions Of men and
things occasionally. If Mr.. Smith is
going to set himself up as a censor Of
the political morals OF his fellows and
draw the deadly parallel on all Repub-
licans, he'll find lots Of them who
have said things equally as bad as he
has said about the president and the
flag in the heat of passion and their
excess Of zeal, which they are now
willing to forget in the interest Of par
ty harmony. Personal attacks on indi-
vidual Republicans do not show good
judgment, wisdom or common sense.
Who cares what any man said or did
ten months or ten years ago? ''Wise
men change often, fools never" The
paramount question is, What does he
say or believe NOW? The eternal now
is worth a thousand yesterdays. Let
Mr.. Smith pull himself together and
take aim at the common enemy-the
Democratic party. There is nothing to
be gained in fighting Republicans.
The Hon. John B. Stanchfeld, the
Democratic nominee for governor OF
New York, is sUB-srANCHIALLY licked.
His votes In the legislature against the
labor interests and his speeches in IA

which is quoted in the New York Sun

New York. Nov l2-Marcus Daily Of
Montana, died, today, at the Hotel
Netherlands
Mr.. Days death has been expected
for weeks. He came home from Eu-
rope about the middle OF September
and soon afterwards was obliged to
take to the bed from which he never
again arose. His physicians informed
the relatives some time ago that MIR
Daily would die, and 50 dangerously Ill
was he that they would give no assur-
a1ce OF life only from day to day.
Bright's disease, complicated with
heart weakness, was the cause Of
death.
Marcus DAILY was born in Ireland in
1872. He came to the United States
early in lie and since 1876 had been a
citizen Of Montana. He became general
manager Of the Alice silver mine and
later came into control of the Amazon
da copper mine. AT the time of his
death he was president Of the Amalga-
mated copper mine.
In politics he was a Democrat. The
differences between Mr.. DAILY and w.
A. Clark have attracted much atten-
ton. The trouble started years ago
over some land in Iaitte which Daily
and Clark purchased together. Clark
secured water rights which DAILY want
