CARTER DENIES 1T.
Says He Never Offered lleillZe Anything
For His Mines.

Helena July TO- Yesterday conver-
ration which was started about other
matters, directed the attention of Senator
Carter to the testimony recently given
in court by +. A. Heinze, in the course
of which Heinze swore that he had re-
ceived from Mr.. Carter in behalf of the
Amalgamated Copper company, an offer
of $8,OOO,OOO for certain of his properties.
Regarding this matter, Senator Carter
said:
AT request of +. August Heinze,
had two interviews with him last Novem-
Der. had been retained to assist in the
trial of mining suit in the United States
court, to represent an interest adverse to
Mr.. Heinze. But as the case was finally
set for trial in December my official du-
ties in congress compelled me to with
draw from the case, as l could not
attend the trial without neglecting pub
lie duty.
"On the eve of my departure for the
east, late in November, Mr.. Heinze sent
me word through two different persons
that he wished to have talk with me.
| met him as he requested. | did not
represent the Almagamated company
nor any other company at either inter
view or at all in connection with any
conversation or negotiation with Mr.
Heinze. I distinctly stated to Mr. Heinze
at the very outset that had no author
ity to represent the people opposed te
him, and that the conversation would
therefore be purely personal if any con
vcrsation followed,
"Mr. Heinze said he understood this
perfectly, but wanted me to understand
something of the nature of his conten
tions so that if thought proper to aic
in bringing about settlement l might
be advised of the fact that there wer.
two sides to the matter. He requested
me to regard what he said as confiden
tial, and on that basis he proceeded t,
talk at considerable length.
II was silent listener Throughout
nine tenths of the time employed in al
the conversation we had. l asked Mr.
Heinze number of questions. Some o
them he answered with apparent frank
ness and others he declined to answer
No understanding was reached or as
sumed to have been reached. No prop
osition had been made by me of an,
kind, character or description. had NJ
authority from any person, company o
combination to make any offer to MI
Heinze, and did not make him an otfe
of 100000 or of any sum whatever.
1.-The statement of Heinze that l oi
Jared him sS,OOOOOO certainly must hav
been made by him in jest. That state
ment has no foundation in fact whatever
The two gentlemen who brought to m
the request from Mr.. Heinze for the in
terviews inform me that he said to then
that he merely desired to have friendl
; talk, and the interviews were OF tn

Jackson's withdrawal OF the deposits from

the stump there would have been no in
surrection What then? Are free born
Americans to withhold criticism of their
servants? Is public opinion to be sup
pressed because a president has gone
wrong? Are senator's who have sworn 20
support the constitution, to play false to
their oaths OF Office and by silence, il not
express approval, TO uphold policy which
their conscience and their Judgment con-
denim?
Things have come to a pretty pass if a
president or majority party can do no
wrong which the people or a minority are
permitted to openly oppose. As well say
that because the administration has ap-
piled the gold standard it is treason to
the Nations financial integrity to con-
tinue the free silver agitation. BY what
means. pray, is policy to be reversed nr
arrested if not by free discussion and pub
lie debate?
This intolerance is of a kind with the
other high handed proceedings of i'm
perialism. Not only would the president S
followers and henchmen strike down the
Filipinos for desiring freedom, but they
would muzzle every man and suppress
every newspaper that questions the right
or the eXpediency of conquest
Better we should lose the entire army
in the Philippines and suffer utter defeat
at the hands of the natives than that free
dom OF opinion and expression should he
abridged or that a dominant majority
should be allowed to overawe and coerce
a dissenting minority.
But the charges against Senator Hoar
ana other anti-imperialists may be an
swered In more pertinent way. II they

their startling departure from the princi-
pie OF Cuban reconstruction there would
have been no possible cause for war. as
there would have been no possible differ
ence of opinion among Americans.
The imperalists are entitled TO their
opinion that this sort of expansion is right
aud wise, that empire is in the lonstitu-
ton and that a henehcent destiny is pre-
siding over 1t all. but If they take the
credit OF this new possession they must
assume also the responsibility of the cost

During the American revolution there
were those in England and in parliament
who dared TO condemn the oppression of
lne colonies and to oppose the policy OF
hlng George. There are those in England
now who have no sympathy with the war
against the Beers and who frankly de-
clare that their cause is just So in the
United States there are those who believe
that the war against the Filipino is unholy

THE DEMOCRATIC OUTLOOK.


Washington. January Especial to At
lanta Constitution The democratic poll
tic!ars regard the South as absolutely safe.
with the possible exception OF Kentucky.
They acknowledge that the con lit.ons
there growing out of the Goebel contest
are such as TO make doubtful what before
was considered a certain democratic State,
but they still figure that their chances are
better than are those OF the republicans.
The States which they regard as certain
democratic with the electoral vote OF each
are as follows;
Alabama ii. Arkansas s. Colorado 4.
Florida 4, Georgia lS. Idaho g. Kansas 10,
Louisiana s, Mississippi ., Missouri II,
Montana 3. Nebraska 3. Nevada 3, North
Carolina IL, South Carolina Q, Tennessee
II, Texas Is, Utah 9, Virginia - total
of 1888 or the States they carried before
this list eliminates Wyoming with votes
which they do not expect to get; South
Dakota with 4 votes, where they regard
the chances against them; Washington
with 4 votes, where they believe they
have an even chance; and the ONE vol
each in California and Kentucky, which
went into the Bryan column, although all
the rest of the electors from those two
States were republican.
The democratic campaign is. therefore,
to be made principally in California.
where the Mckinley electors had less than
5000 plurality and where there are nine
electoral votes at stake in Delaware.
which is always close, with its three e,ec-
toral votes; in Illinois, where, despite the
great plurality for Mckinley in 1896 they
believe they have a chance to get the
twenty four electoral votes now that they
/ have control of the Chicago machira and
will have Carter Harrison as their canh-
date for governor; in Indiana, which is
always lighting ground, although the
chances there do not seem to he as good
as in Illinois; In Kentucky. with its thir-
teen electoral votes, of which they seem
certain; in Maryland where eight cleo
toral votes are at stake and where the
democratic machine is in control; in North
Dakota, which has three votes and a ma
row republican margin; in South Dakota
which has four votes and where the
have Il fighting chance; in Washington,
where exactly similar conditions prevail;
in West Virginia. with its six votes and
in New York. where they figure fighting
| chance as the result OF Tammany control
of the city affairs and the showing made
by the democrats in the fght agaln.t
Governor Roosevelt,
In their inner councils the demo era 10
leaders regard New York as absolutely
essential to democratic success. but they
expect to make, as they express it. M
sacrifice 10 principle in order to get this
Eastern vote. They feel that the expsn
sion and trust questions will necessarily
force themselves to the front in the con-
ing campaign in such way as to over
shadow other issues and they believe or
say they believe that the New York dem
ocrats will pull with them even ii the
platform does contain strong declaration
against the republican financial policy
based on the gold standard. in which many
OF the strong elements among Eastern
democrats undoubtedly believe.
