for his haste in meeting the demand of
the abductors for S.5,OOo as a ransom
for his son. But they must put them
selves in his place for n few hours be-

The Helena Herald assume nm air of
great importsncc as a newspaper when
it tries to reply to any structures made
upon it, tr~cacherous course during the
recent campaign. 1t will he admitted
that it had an opening 10 become a
paper of power and influence in the
state. as well as in the Republican
party. but it has handicapped itself by
its peculiar obligations to w. A..
Clark. In its distress it quickly grasps
at anything and anxiously quotes the
sentiment of others to justify its own
course. Whatever the grievance Of
Col. Sanders, May and others, it is GER
tain that the former has nothing but
contempt for the Herald. If the Re-
publican party Of this state needs new
leaders it was in greater need OF a new
organ-a field which the Helena Record
is filing admirably. As will be seen
elsewhere in an editorial from the Inter,
Mountain, the sentiment of Republicans
generally is expressed in the paragraph
which reads; I'm any event If a RULES
TO be established for the party's re
organization, il should provide first OF
all that only those who were loyal in
this years campaign shall do the re.
organizing, and not the traitors And
again: ave wish we could say as much
for those who secretly betrayed the
party in the campaign of 1907 Pos
sibly the Herald in its obtuseness will
not regard this as a reflection upor
itself, but it a hardly have any Other
reference. Possibly the Inter-Moun
tain is also a cheap paper, but tn,
Herald will have hard work to max,
people believe that il has not been 10y
al to the party. The Herald did all i
could to defeat the Republican party il
the recent campaign and it cannot ge
away from the fact. An open enemy il
