DEMOCRATIC COUNTY TICKET.
ANOTHER CONGRESSIONAL JuGGLE


Late last spring Congress passed a
financial measure, the ostensible pur-
pose OF which was the perpetuation of
che gold standard up,n the American
people. and since that time Republi-
can newspapers have pointed with
pride to the fulfillment of the promise
of the party, and leaders and speakers
have rejoiced and chuckled that they
had cheekmated the Democracy and
that even in the event of Democratic
success before the people the supre-
macy Of the yellow metal was assured
for at least six years to come.
It now turns out that the measure is
defective, and that the purpose sought
was not accomplished The bill as it
originated in the House was we'll call
culated to perpetuate the single stand
ard, but as 1t finally passed the SEN
ate 1t was far from identical.
Prot. J. Laurence Laughlin, of the
university OF Chicago, has made a
zeal and careful examination of the
assure, and as result he SAYS the
~ that 1t will maintain the gold
lard is delusion. He says in
regards the establishment of the
standard not only has practically
|hng new been introduced into the Sit
ION by this bill. but We have in general
new means of maintaining the stand
fu which we did not have before the act

critical and purely from the standpoint
OF dispassionate Investigator. Re-
ferring to this opinion the Boston Her
aid, in long review, says:
Prof Laughlin sets forth candidly in
his article, which is long and discriminat-
ing, the real good that Is contained in the
act of March H. But the important new
feature of his article is that the common
understanding that the act insures a per-
manent maintenance of the gold stand
ard applicable alike to public and private
transactions. is a delusion. This defect
of the act he claims to be due to the de-
signed weakening in the Senate of the
provisions contained in the House bill
The whole thing appears to be sim

some Interior purpose, and we'll cal

Reply to Roosevelt.

SlXto Lopez, a representative of the
Filipinos in London, has written the fol-
lowing open letter to Theodore Roose
velt:
Dear Sir: l have read your remark
able speech delivered recently at st.
Paul, Minn., in which you charge the
filipinos with being the precise anal
ogies' of the Boxers and Apaches and
our government with being IA bloody
Aguinaldoan oligarchy."
Let me draw your attention to the cir
cumstances as we Filipinos view them:
You come to our country. You call us
dear General Aguinaldo." You ask,
accept and profit by our aid in the defeat
OF your enemy. You deliver Spanish
prisoners over to our charge; you place
large number of your own sick and
wounded practically in our care. When
your enemy has been defeated you turn
upon us, shoot us down by thousands,
and when our resistance is greater than
you anticipated, you declare that we are
the precise analogies" of Boxers and
Apaches, and him whom you once STYLED
dear general when you required his
aid, you now refer to as "bloody Agui-
naldo." Honor bright, do you consider
all this as consistent with the conduct of
gentleman and soldier? There is
only one escape-prove your charges,
Look at it in another light: You are
powerful and wealthy. You can bring
to your task of determination the most
deadly weapons of so-called civilized
warfare. Your soldiers are we'll armed
we'll fed, we'll quartered. We, on the
contrary, are without wealth and without
single field piece. We have very few
arms and inferior ammunition, We have
only such food as our soldiers can find
IN forest and mountain and we have to
live in swamps and jungles, exposed to
every weather. N' "

The late republican convention of this

The late republican convention of this
county was a conspicuous example of
the methods by which the voters are
hoodwinked into doing the will of the
bosses. 1t bore all the earmarks of a
SLATE convention manipulated by a
little coterie of Kalispell men who are
not all republicans. There seems to be
an effort on foot to repeat the republican
"slate" performance in the democratic
convention next Saturday, the object
being to SO place the candidates that
certain ones will be elected on each
ticket. Whether the democratic coun-
try delegates will swallow the dose now
being prepared for them as did the re-
publicans remains to be seen, but present
indications are that it will not go down.

THE The Bryan club of Kalispell
BRYAN has adopted constitution
CLUB. and rules and regulations.
Section 9 reads as follows:
The objects of this club shall be:
10 preserve the constitution of the
United States, the autonomy of the
states, local self government and freedom
of elections.
To resist revolutionary changes and
the Capitalization of power
To oppose the imposition of taxes be-
You'd the necessities of government eco
nomically administered.
10 promote economy in all branches of
the public service.
10 oppose unnecessary commercial re-
strictiOns for the benefit of the few at
the cost of the many.
70 oppose class legislation, which de
spoils labor and builds up monopoly.
To protect the American laborer from
ruinous competition growing out of the
importation of cheap labor from Asiatc
countries, and we demand such legisla-
tion as will insure to American citizens
fair and remunerative employment in
the construction, repair and manage
ment of all enterprises both public and
private.
To maintain inviolate the fundamen-
tai principle of equality
before the law" and to cooperate with
the regular organization of the demo-
cratic party in support of democratic
men and democratic measures.
The foregoing declaration of princi-
pies is not by any means original with
the Kalispell Bryan club, but that fact
does not detract in the least from their
value or the aptitude of their applica
tion to the present political situation,
They deserve the thoughtful considera
tion of every good citizen at this time
The spirit of them is above mere party
lines. They are an epitome of what con
stitutes the basis of all good government
When carried into practice they are the
insurance of life, liberty and the pursuit
of happiness and they merit the defense
and support of all men who love liberty
without regard to party affiliations.

unimpeachable title to the lives and
property of the Filipinos. Referring to
his position upon the Paris treaty, he
said he had voted for it because he
wanted to bring the war to a technical
as we'll as to real close. He had, how
ever, only. consented to give his vote
after securing the presidents assurance
that it was not his purpose to perman-
emily occupy or to hold against the con-
sent of the inhabitants the Philippine
islands, that it was his purpose only to
restore law and order by American arms
in the contest that was then being waged
and to prevent foreign interference in
the affairs of the archipelago
THAT was my understanding and upon
that promise I voted for the ratification
of the treaty. Without my vote it would
not have been ratified. The treaty was
ratified, but the promise of the president
was not fulfilled. l will do Mckinley
justice. When he gave the pledge he
intended it should be kept. But, sir,
that intention faded away against the
malevolent influences that have pursued
this administration and made themselves
felt"
Senator Wellingtons statement agrees
very we'll with the estimate the Ameri-
can people have been obliged to make of
Mckinley. His intentions have doubt
less been good in most cases, but his
actions have not been governed by his
own ideas as witness his change of face
on the Porto Rican tariff. Mckinley
has been a mere tool for the forces upon
which his election depended and upon
which his reelection must depend. He
has allowed himself to be made the cats
paw of the monied interests in every
of Importance during his
and his complaisance is
the reason for the ardent desire of those
interests for his retention.

fault with Congressman Campbell be-

to exposing the political methods of w.

his way into the United States senate as

republican press of Montana is never
done deploring the corruption in Mon

the democrats out of power because of
it. If they are right, and the most i'm

this state is whether the franchise may
be debauched and positions of honor
and trust bought and sold as in the days
of declining Rome why is not Congress-
man Campbell entitled to all possible
credit for his efforts to defeat the ends
of those who have made Montana poll

crying aloud for an opportunity to do
what Congressman Campbell has DONE

THE DOG? local democratic ranks who,
while protesting repugnance and opposi-
ton to the efforts of w. A. Clark to buy
his way to the United States senate and
to degrade and ruin those who stand in
the way of his success, are yet willing to
concede everything asked for by the
local representatives of Clark and his
Doodle, in order to allay opposition to
their own aspirations to get themselves
or their friends on the public payroll.
These gentlemen apparently forget that
there will be other and honest influences
in the coming election quite as potent as
Mr.. Clark and his Doodle and that they
cannot expect to carry water on both
shoulders successfully.
It is undeniablc that the democratic
party in this, as in other counties of the
state, is not unit on the question of the
right of w. A. Clark to control the
party by the weight of his money. Hap
PLY, however, there is only very small
minority of democrats in Flathead county
who approve of Clark and his methods.
Small as that minority is, though, it is
entitled to fair representation on the
local ticket. Only in this way can
united front be presented to the common
enemy. But any deal which contem-
plates allowing the minority to dictate
to the majority who they shall place
upon the county ticket, or which involves
surrender of the principle for which the
majority have been contending, will be
resented by the voters at the polls, and
the Bee proposes to stand with the
people in this contest.
