In the appointment of Maginnis, Gov
ernor Smith admits that the resignation
of Senator Clark was a valid one. II
the report of the committee is correct,
Clark's resignation was not valid, for
there was nothing to resign, no valid
election having been held by the Mon
lana legislature. Therefore, the APP
pointment of Maginnis is a protest
against the adoption of the report Of the
committee, n a plea in favor of recog-
nizing the validity of the election of
Clark by the Montana legislature.
Otherwise the appointment of Maginnis
is a farce, and Governor Smith bho
a farce just as much as nature abhors a
vacuum.

KEEP THE RECORD STRAIGHT.

In his address before the republican
state convention the temporary chair
man of that body inadvertently made a
statement inconsistent with we'll known
facts, and which the Inter Mountain
deems it a duty to correct. In referring
to the reunion which has happily been
affected between the two wings of the
republican party, giving that o~rganiza-
ton a positive strength that will ensure
its triumph at the polls, the gentleman
remarked: "Four years ago, thousands
of republicans, decoyed by the beguiling
influences of the democratic party, left
us. to fight the battle alone"
In order to keep the records straight,
and place the silver republicans in the
proper light, it is necessary to say hat
those gentlemen We're not "decoyed by
the beguiling influences of the demo-
cratic party in 1896. The republican
party of Montana had always taken a
firm and unyielding stand for silver,
electipg it's candidates on a silver plat
form and pledging it's delegates to the
national conventions to the interests of
the white metal. For the first time in
its history the republican party of this
state repudiated the silver issue in 1896,
in order to get into line with the depart
ure inaugurated by the national
ton at st. Louis. This action led those
members of the party who believed the
silver issue to be paramount to all others.
to cast their political fortunes, for the
time being, with other parties which adj
voeated that idea, in the hope that free
coinage might again be brought about as
the financial policy of the nation.
There was no "~decoying' or 'beguil-
inc" about it. The silver republicans
merely sustained the position which had
heretofore been consistently advocated
by the republican party in this state.
Nor does their return to the original
party organization imply the confession
of a mistake. They believed then, as
they believe now, hat they pursued the
proper course in 1896 in vindication of a
principle they sincerely believed to be
right, and for which they stood ready to
invite the penalties which the whilagig
of time might prescribe.
TIL silver republicans return to the
parent party, not because they regret
the action taken in the last presidential
campaign, or are willing to concede
that their views on the financial question
We're fundamentally incorrect, but be,
cause a change in conditions in the af-
fairs of the world has destroyed the free
coinage issue, ~relegated silver to the rear
