WILLIAM II. WOODARD, the popular
young attorney of this city, has re-
ceived much encouragement in his
candidacy for the Republican nomina-
ton for district attorney. He has
made an active canvass of the county
and from nearly every quarter has
secured promises of support. His ex-
cellent standing as citizen and as a
practitioner is so well known, and the
personal impression he creates is SO
favorable, that it has become the quite
general opinion in the party councils
that he would add material strength
to the ticket, and his nomination is
therefore being urged on all sides.

AFTER several weeks of indecision
The Weltbuerger last week came out
with Bryan and the Democratic ticket
at it's masthead. This complete flop
from it's position of four years ago
shows naked degree of inconsistency
and is rather difficult to understand.
But perhaps the reward urged and
secured for it by certain Republican
leaders in return for it's support in 80
was not after all sufficient to hold it in
line now.

FOR ATTORNEY GENERAL.
Fergus County VIA Present the Name of
frank {. Smith for d Place on the
Republican State Ticket.

County attorney Frank +. ; NTH aspires
to he the Republican candidate for attor.
uey general this fall aud his canvass has 80
far progressed that he has assurances OF
support not only from many of the leaders
Of the party in his home county but also
prominent republicans 10 Northern and
Eastern Montana, as well as warm friends
among the slate makers Of the west side.
Fergus has never been granted a place
on the state ticket aud being one of the
most reliable Republican counties in the
state, it is quite time that it's claims be re.
cognized.
When this is done there is no one among
our leaders who has greater cl aims than
Mr.. Smith and it is hardly doubted that
the coming county convention will take
su III action as will ensure n solid delpga.
ton Tor the aspirant. In fact, it is reason
able to say that Fergus will demand the
nomination and endeavur by all honora.
BILE means To have Mr.. Smith named.
Frank T.. Smith has served six terms as
county attorney, having first been elected
when the county WIS created in 1856. lie
has been defeated hut once-by f. f. Mae.
Gowan in 1894. lie also filed out the nm.
expired term OF Cuunty Attorney Cheadie,
when that gentleman went with Com.
pany !.
Ia this time he has been very successful
and it is to be doubted il any prosecutor
in the state could show such n high per
centngs Of convictions. Certainly no coun.
ty attorney cau point to as great At mum
Der.
While he held the office sixty one offend
ers have been convicted by his exertious,
while hut twenty-eiGht cases have been lost.
OF these, tweniy-one were priorto January
1898, and a number were stock cases in
which it was almost impossible to secure a
conviction ia the early days.
To this record must be added a good
average Of convictions had during the term

cases were filed were permitted TO go free
after settling for the unpaid licenses or ior
checks illegally drawn or goods unIa wfully

IL is a record OF which Mr.. Smith may
well be proud. and as a candidate for at
torney general he should win much support
from those Of the opposition who appreci
ate nm honorable record.
His nomination would without question
strengthen the whole state ticket in centra

is scarcely a doubt but that the people o
the entire state would be satisfied with hi,

is our opinion that. with all its splen-
dor. the Republican convention or 1900
has a fatal lack. which appears no.
where more clearly than in the brill
liant speeches Of its two chairmen.
The conscience, the idealism, the glor-
ious fidelity to human rights, which
are now embodied by Hoar, Boutwell,,
Edmunds and the rest. are not there.
The materialism of Hanna, the cynical
political ethics OF Lodge. the swash-
buekler fervor OF Roosevelt-all these
are there. and they dominate every
thing. It is not surprising that the
proceedings are described as lacking
In enthusiasm. Nor Is II strange that
the great apostacy Of the republic in
the far East is left almost to a foot
note In the platform, while the con-
Vention orators hurriedly pass the
painful subject by.
