CARLETON'S CHANGE OF FAITH
The State Superintendent of Public In
struction Rejoins the Republican
Party-He Declines to BE Alb
sorbed by Democracy.

E A. Carleton, state superintendent
Of public instruction, was interviewed
last week by the Helena Herald con
cerning the rumors of a political change
on his part. He freely admitted that
his resolution was definitely formed tc
rejoin the republican party. Mr.. Carle.
ton said
Eyes, it is true that have decided tc
identify myself with the republican
party in the future AS view it, one
of the two old parties will control the
governmental policies of the country
A third party has no show at ALL in my
Judgment. Its chances are lessenine
rather than increasing.
While [ supported Bryan in 1896, as
did many republicans in Montana, | an
satisfied that, from a party standpoint
it was political suicide. The people.
party very largely lost it's identity anc
prestige by fusion on Bryan
"lt is now proposed to nominate Brv-
an by the populists in advance of the
democratic convention. This, to NV
mind, simply means that the populist
party IS to be absorbed by the demo-
cratic party, or perhaps / should say
that the absorption so shrewdly begun
i'll 1886 is to be fully consumnated in
1900.
"F'or one | decline to be thus al S orbed.
Whenever it comes to choice between
the republican and democratic parties
choose the former. 1t appears to me
that one is forced to be either a republi-
can or democrat under existing cir.
c1mstancas. / was an ardent republi-
can until the defeat of Mr.. Blaine in
the Minneapolis convention, In his de-
feat l considered that the party had
turned down its ablest leader and the
greatest American living. The silver
question at this time was at the front,
and it, also, had weighty influence in
inducing many in the west to leave the
old parties and unite with the new par
ty whose battle cry was free silver at
l6 to one.
While still believing in bimetallism
"a double standard Of money as firmly
as ever, candor compels the admission
that most of the evils prophesied by
Mr. Bryan as sure to follow a republi-
;an triumph not only have not appeared
but the country has experienced
period OF great prosperity The result
IS that the democratic party will re'e-
gate silver to the rear and adopt an
other issue in the ensuing campaign.
Upon the question of expansion,
stand with the democratic party of a
arge part of the South and the entire
republican party of the country with
sew exceptions. Always protectionist,
find myself most in accord with the
party Of protection and prosperity, of
and expansion, and l intend to
support it,
'There are many populists in Mon
ana who will do:likewise. Logic and
price currents have convinced where
abuse and misrepresentation have failed.
eyes, | am glad to come back to my
I'D party, and feel better for returning;
)ut it should be mentioned that the
citizen has the same inalienable right to
change his politics that he has to change
lis religion or his residence, and we
nave no more right to question the one
han the other"
