1.-THE TRUE ~PRiKcIPLE."

Under The foregoing caption the Ana
conda Standard eloquently proclaims the
following:
BY every principle of right if the
American flag flies in full sovereignty
over any territory the people thereof
should be considered as American cft.-
zens entitled to all the blessings and
immunities which the constitution and
laws of the country guarantee. ets.
This sounds as convincing, coming from
the source it does, as would an address on
political liberty from an Anaconda min
ing boss. But despite its glittering gen.
eralities and ~high-sounding adjectives.
it isn't good democracy. The American
flag floated in full sovereignty over the
territory acquired through the Louisiana
purchase, but from that day to this a
large number of 1.-The people thereof"
have not been considered citizens .enti-
tied to all the blessings which the con-
stitution and laws of the country guar
antee." It never occurred to the demo-
cratic party during the long years OF
democratic rulership IN national affairs,
ante-dating the civil war, to apply to the
red Indian of America the doctrine now
enunciaIted by the Standard. Yet in the
face Of such history the Standard adds:
In taking its radical departure from the
| honored principles and traditions of the
country, the republicans have opened a
| Pandora's box for themselves. p
The fact is. the republican party Is
taking no radical departure from the hon
| ored principles and traditions of the
! country, in it's dealings with newly &C.
quired provinces. 1t is merely following
the example set by the patriarchs of, the
democracy, and is trying to adopt ways
and means for the most sensible treat
ment of new propositions which the cir
substances will allow.

When the Anaconda Standard begins
to brag about it's circulation it is pretty
good evidence that it feels the need OF
a little bracing up. The fact ID, that
paper has hoodooed itself with every
man who respects the good name OF

TOOL'S TVRP7vDE.

A few more witnesses for The prosecu-
ton like John r. Toule will settle the
senatorial controversy in Mr.. Clark's
favor.
There have been. a number of highly
distinguished liars on both sides of the
contest, but, as a rule. the witnesses
acted within the lines of discretion and
made enough admissions to Indicate a
desire to be fair.
Had the defense denied the expendi-
ture of any considerable amount Of
money during the legislative session, the
falsehood would have defeated the justi-
fication it has in view.
In the face of the evidence brought for
ward by the prosecution as to the prob
able expenditure of money, it was the
wiser course of the defense to acknowl-
edge the expenditure. but show that it
was not improperly used.
A showing Of candor was thus made.
which amy other course would " de-
stroyed.
Had the prosecution been equally ''up
to snuff' it would have candidly ad-
mitted the cooperation of certain prom
inent men in the democratic party in an
effort to defeat the political aspirations
of Mr.. Clark, ON the grounds Of that gen.
tlemanIs moral turpitude.
This would have explained away the
conspiracy theory and greatly strength
ened the prosecution.
But the prosecution wants to pose as
is over-playing its hand.
The testimony of John r. Toole was
, positively ridiculous, and it will tax his
excellent nerve to the utmost to here
after look a Montana hen-roost squarely
in the face.
Although he was the political general
of the Anaconda wing of the democracy,
and had planned its campaigns and en-
gineered it's coups, he swore positively
that he knew nothing abou the coercion
of it's employees. the colonization of
wards. the packing of primaries in Butte,
or in fact any Of the sins Of omission and
commission which are laid at the door
Of the political forces under his COM
mand, and with which the public is as
familiar as with Butte smoke.
He was as innocent as a newborn babe
of all the political treachery and fraud
and freebooting which characterized the
Anaconda wing of the democracy in
1898.
He swore that he favored fusion, while
every man in the city Of Anaconda dur
ing the period of the state conventions
knows that it was his fine italian hand
which spiked the proposition and made
corporation an impossibility.
In a political rough-and-tumble fight
between multi-millionaires, in which
paid %claquers are dancing to the music
of money on both sides, there is such a
thing as being entirely too good.
The Clark men apparently recognize
this fact, and freely confess to the ex.
penditure of large sums for h con
summation of the ends they had in view
But the Anaconda faction is trying te
work the Sunday school dodge m the
senate committee.
A man fresh from the bosom of Abra.
ham could not have been more guileless
than John R.. Toole.
He was altogether too good.
A few more witnesses of that type will
convince the senate that Clark was JUS
titled in spending a little Of his small
change in an effort to preserve the stat
piety.
