M0K7AKA'S DEMOCRATIC cEsSPoOk.

Helena Herald: The senate committee
on privileges and elections has begun its
investigation of the charges of bribery
made in connection with w. A. Clark's
election to the United States senate. The
whole world will soon learn Of demo-
cratic politics as practiced in this state.
The press of the nation will soon be dis
cussing the disreputable democratic fac
ton fighting in Montana. The desperate
Daly-Clark imbroglio is now on exhibit
ton at the capital of the nation. Mon
tana is now being made a subject of
criticism and shame because she fell SO
TAR from grace as to elect a democratic
legislature. She is the subject of OBJ
loquy n ignominy by reason of her
peculiar type of democracy. Every
abominable and infamous charge that
has for years been banded back and
forth between the Standard, the Miner
and the Independent will now be thor
oughly ventilated n published to the
world. The state yves this disgrace and
shame to the democratic party, and may
her people never forget 1t.
That these democratic scandals should
be ventilated, probed and published is
q great humiliation for our state. But
that Is really only a minor matter. The
great. the damning fact about the whole
matter Is that there should be SO much

DEMOCRATIC LEADERS WORRIED.

to what they will do with the political
situation after Senator Clark is expelled.
If Governor Smith the

who elected Clark may take a notion to
do it over again, by way of indicating
themselves. =
In the words of a distinguished Mon
~tanian, that would "settle the cat-hop.'
1t is not at all improbable that the
legislature would do this.
If this danger is escaped, through the
refusal of the governor to call the legis-
lature together, then the Anaconda wing
will be charged with creating and main
tanning a vacancy, leaving the state to
be represented by only one senator, and
he a republican. s
The, democratic party will register a
vigorous kick against this sort Of q

over of all the receipts and disburse-
ments of the State Treasury, Secretary
of State, Warden of the P~enitentiary
and other departments receiving and
disbursing moneys. Hon. Rudolph w.
Mueller of St. Charles, a contributor
to the Republican Campaign Book of
this year, was the Republican member
of the last committee. Mr.. Mueller's
report, like all others made to the Leg
islature since the Democrats regained
control of the State, speaks in highest
terms of the business like management
and the thorough honesty of the State
departments. But there are other re-
ports which are on file at the State
Capital. Col. Flory is not ignorant of
them He knows they tell the dark
story of Republican ~rottenness in Mis-
souri,. Here is one of them, made to
the Republican General Assembly of
1870, by a Legislative Committee COM
posed of Two Republicans and one
Democrat:
1--WE are forced, reluctantly, we con-

agement Of the ~penitentiary has been of
a most reckless character and highly
detrimental to the interests of the
State. Indeed, the penitentiary and
the supplies purchased ostensibIy for
its use. seem TO have been regarded as
legitimate prey of almost everybody
connected with it in an official capaci-
ty. and in some, If not many instances,
favored friends we're invited into the
ring to share its spoils. In addition
to furnishing supplies to prisoners, as
l~egitimately authorized by law. the
families of nearly all the officials,
guards and employees, as also the fam
lilies of some of the State officials, Gov
ernOr, Auditor, Treasurer, ETC., and
the families of others not connected
with the prison, obtained a large por-
ton of their supplies of beef, flour,
bacon, corn, hay, wood, coal. etc.
from the prison store. 1t is in evil
deuce that quite a number of prison
officials, employees, etc, as we'll as OF
the State officials, have built during
this period some very comfortable
houses, with convict labor. We find
that the Deputy Warden had in Guilt
walton one and a half acres of land in
the year 1868, from which he sold to
the penitentiary, lettuce, onions and
cabbage to the amour of $1,215.5 So.
Ordinarily, in order to arrive at the
net profits, we would have to deduct
from the same the cost of production,
