SHOULD ONE
CHEER FOR BRYAN

Stamford, N. Y, Oct. Ex-Governor
Roosevelt finished the second day of his
New York state campaign in Norwich
tonight. speaking to a large audience.
He Travelled today 159 miles and made
four speeches and finished his days
work in good voice.
The entire day was an ovation, the
crowds in comparison to the population
of the places being large. The three
largest places stopped at today were
Stamford, where he spoke in a hall;
Ononeta, where he addressed a large
outdoor meeting, and at Bloomville,
where he said:
Il want to call your attention to a
little incident that occurred last night
in New York. 1 think you can some-
times know "a man by the company he
keeps. You a sometimes tell some
thing about a candidate by the people
who are his most active supporters.
There was a Bryan meeting last night
In New York, in Cooper Union, l think.
AT that meeting the morning papers re-
port that the two people most en-
Enthusiastically cheered We're Aguinaldo of
the Philippines and Altgead of Illinois.
I think it was entirely proper to cheer
the one if o cheer the other. 1t was
entirely appropriate to cheer the man
who pardoned the anarchists in this
country and the man who has been
striking at our soldiers on the other side
of the earth. Now think of a party that
relies on that kind of support. SYMBOL
lied by the men who cheered for Altgeld
and Aguinaldo! AguinaldO as a great
apostle of freedom, and a few months
ago a certain Bryante alluded to him
as a second George Washington! You
may not be familiar with Aguinaldo's
history, so I will give 1t to you briefly
Continuing. Governor Roosevelt re-
viewed, as he had in several previous
speeches. the career of Aguinaldo. He
then said:
Now. gentlemen, think of a party
that is reduced to champion that type
of man.

BRYAN AND THE WAR TAX.

Bryan is descending to some very
coarse work in the last stages of his
campaign of desperation. He is not only
presenting arguments that would shame
a schoolboy, out is telling outrageous
falsehoods in order to create sentiment
against the the republicans. At Fred
erick, Maryland, yesterday, he said:
When You go to send a telegram you
will find hat l cent is paid by the man
who sends it, and when you go to an
other place you will find that 2 cents is
paid by the man who receives it. You
find the republican party has not had
time to reduce the taxes that have been
laid on the people, but the republican
party has had time to reduce the tax on
the national bank, and you ave to pay
it. The people will find that the repub-
licans are for organized wealth and not
for the w~orkingnen.
Every man who has any business with
a telegraph office knows that while the
sender of a dispatch pays a wal reyenue
tax of I cent, the receiver pays nothing.
Bryan's statement tina the receiver pays
2 cents is simply a bold falsehood.
Furthermore, the l cent tax on tele-
grams works nc hardship whatever On
laboring men, for they do not average
one telegram a year. The tax falls al
most exclusively on business men ana
corporations, Who do all the telegraph
ing in this country except an infinites-
ma fraction. But that is not the worst
phase of the argument of Bryan. He
is finding fault with a tax hat was inn
posed on the rich to pay the expenses Of
a wal for humanity and national honor,
which tax is still in effect in order that
the expenses of that war may be recov
cred as far as possible without calling
on the working classes for any par or
it. Still, the working classes would will
ingly ave stood it all rather han ave
the war fail for want of money to equip
the army and navy and send them forth
to battle for the flag.
Is Bryan growing "daffy' as the cam
paign draw to a close?

run 1t out of business in the interest Of
its rivals and their lawsuits? Why lis the
light against the company so bitter if the
fusfonists do not p to keep it ND
after the election, and compel 1t to sus-
pend operations regardless of the effect
In b or business and on property val
ues in Butte?
Let no MAN be mistaken as to the in
tentions of the democratic or fusion
party. 1t proposes, by falsehood and by
corruption to incite the citizens of Mon
tana against a concern tina employs
1900 men; directly supports 5000 peo-
Pile and indirectly assists nearly every
man. woman and chfld on the west side
OF the state, to say nothing of
those in Cascade, Carbon n Sweet
grass counties, and who number
in grand total no less than $4,000 resi-
dents of Montana. The figures prove it.
Every man can calculate it for himself.
In Butte the company's mining pay roll,
which is the proportionate basis of all
auxiliary business in the community,
represents seven-eights of the money in
circulation, and in such proportion the
value of all property and all business in
this city should be calculated. In ex-
actly the same proportion all property
and all business would deteriorate should
the mines of the company be closed, be-
cause the sole dependence of Butte is it's
mines. The concerns that are fighting
the A~malgamated and seking to embroil
the people in their personal affairs
| represent less than an eighth of the
eity's business in property valuation and
in inhabitants. the rest being to the
credit of such concerns as the Alice,
Lexington and other Independent COM
panies which have no interest in the con-
test, though they have played an inn
portant part in the growth of the COM
munity. Butte would be a city of less than
| 5000 people within six months from now
should the democratic plot to close dowa
all the Amalgamated mines succeed, and
it is on account of the people not the
company, that attention is called to
these facts. The republican party Is not
sponsor for the company. nor is the Inter
Mountain. The company is rich can
afford to wait for just treatment, but
the people are not rich and cannot afford
to wait-and it is on their account solely
that this presentation of the facts is
offered, in the hope that the laboring
men and business men will study the
situation for themselves, and accept no
dictation and no suggestions from hired
demagogues or men who nave only per-
n interests to subserve.

A REMINISCENCE,

The Inter Mountain does not believe
that because a laborer sells his labor to
a mining company he is under any polit-
ical obligation to that When
he has done his days work and received
his pay the account is squared. Yet in
the mutual interests of b and capital
they should cooperate when a political
party undertakes to array them against
each other without cause, or to invoke
a spirit of discomfort for the purpose of
smashing a great Industrial enterprise
for personal or political ends and MOTH
ing else.
In the dark days of 1898 in Butte there
copper mines, for copper was low and
the profit had disappeared. Mr.. Marcus
DAILY, one of the chief owners of the
Anaconda properties. as he is now chief
stakeholder in the Amalgamated, his
holdings being valued at 5000, 900, was
ordered by his associates in the east
to lay off THE men at the mines, mas
much as wages could not be reduced
and he would not listen for a moment to.
such a proposition. Instead of closing
the mines, however. he hired all the
business would justify, giving the pref
erence to married men, and at the same
time let contracts for the grading of
the B., A. & P. railroad, which CAV en-
ploynnent to thousands more during the
crisis in Butte's business and labor
circles.
That was his answer to the suggestion
from the east to close down. The miners
of Butte will have no trouble in recall
ing it. We mention the fact only to
show that the fusion office-seekers and
I~itigants who are now trying to close
down the A~malgamated by means of the
labor vote in this district and the bust
ness mems vote have undertaken more
than they are likely to accomplish, and
tina all the money and all the false
registration and all the. appeals of hired
demagogues will amount to nothing
when the legal voters of Silver Bow
county get to the polls.

TRUST THEM NOT.

Let no republican be deceived as to
the apparent hostility of the two demo-
cratic factions. They may yet agree to
vote solidly for certain agreed candf-
dates, and if in the legislature the two
factions together control a majority they
will divide up the senatorships and give
the republicans the laugh. Such things
have happened before in this country,
and thus the forces of reform and good
government have been defeated. In this
state the game can be blocked if the re-
pu~blicans will stand together and vote
their own ticket straight. regardless OF
all personal considerations and all in
div!dual friendships and animosities.
1t will be observed that the democrats
are not fighting one another very saw
agely. In Bozeman last night. accord
ing to a Standard dispatch. Spellbinder
Donovan, a regular democrat, mildly
roasted Governor Smith, Hartman and
Collins" In Helena. Hartman vote
most of his time to a denunciation of the
republican principles. In Lewis and
Clarke county the independent demo-
cratic convention Endorsed some of the
legislative candidates of the regular
party ticket. On this side of the range
some indications are equally suspicious.
The Miner has scarcely mentioned the
name OF Caldwell Edwards. the fusion
candidate for congress, and certainly
never recommended him as a man fit to
be a member of congress from this state.
Perhaps it y Kelly. On the other
hand, the Standard has not editorially
affirmed it's belief in the ability and
character of Mr.. Thomas Hogan, the in>
dependent candidate for the governor
ship. Perhaps it favors Toole.
Whatever may be the facts. however,
it would be Well for the republicans OF
Montana who would redeem the state
from democratic rule and democratic
corruption, and place it in line with the
intelligent and progressive states of the
republican north. to vote their straight
party ticket, by putting a cross in the
circle.

The democratic policy means the loss

lican policy in that it not only means
a loss of our Asiatic market, but the free
importation of Asiatic products into our
own country by means of the abolition
of the tariff. which is as great a menace
to American labor as Chinese immtgra-
ton itself was before the repub.t IAN

That must have been a grand turnout
at Missoula last night. The republicans
and many democrats from all parts OF
the county were present to greet Sem
ator Carter and ex-senator Mantle, who
divided the time to the evident satisfac~
ton of the audience.
Their speeches dealt in no coarse per-
sonal abuse. They understood that
something more important than any
mans ambition, viz: the prosperity Of
all men, and the reputation of the stats
as a field where capital is safe and
where the law is supreme, was involved
in the pending contest.
They naturally denounced the demo-
cratic party for it's crimes, for it's crank
cries and it's imbecilities, for the great
wrongs it had committed to the loss and
disgust of all the people, but chiefly they
platform and defended the patriotic pur-
poses and policies of the republican
party. They put principle above men
and the prosperity of all above that OF
the few. They showed the opposite re-
suits of republican and democratic rule.
They exposed the democratic and inde-
pendent democratic game in Montana
and called upon all good citizens to re-
deem the states good name, to discour-
age he barrel in politics, to repudiate
the democratic attack on property and
to ignore democratic %falsehoods by
