OF it, but what to do to get rid of the

BOOKER T. WAsH1NGToN,s PLAN.

The negro problem is coming to the
fore more prominently each year, and
the recent action of four Southern states
in disfranchising the colored men by.
constitutional amendments has brought
the issue squarely before the people.
Booker T. Washington stands as the
foremost representative of the colored
race in America today. He is one of
them and one with them. Just now he is
visiting in the north and last Sunday.
at Boston, he gave an address in the
Old South church. He said it was now
not so much a question what the whites
would do with the colored men as what
| the colored men would do with the
whites and our civilization. The negroes
were getting more proficient all the
time and were becoming land owners.

END OF A GREAT CASE.

Whatever may be thought of the legal
merits of the case, and whatever may
be the personal sympathies of the citi-
zens of Montana in all political parties,
it is evident that the holiday adjourn
ment of the senate on Saturday without
Its having taken action on the Mon
tana contest marks the end of the
greatest legislative sensation of the
century. About the time the senate
shall convene again after the holiday
vacation, the Montana legislature will
be in session charged with the duty
of electing two senators, one Of whom
will fill the remainder Of the term for
which Hon. w. A. Clark was chosen in
1898. The seat was occupied by Senator
Clark until the day of his resignation

THE CASE OF BOOZ.

The outcome of the investigation now
being conducted as to the existence of
hazing at West Point and its relation
to the death of young Booz is already
foreshadowed by the character of the
questions asked by the examining
officers and the testimony Of the cadets.
1t is clear that young Booz was not in
tended by nature or education for the
rough work of soldier. He was al
youth of deeply religious tendencies. and
his habits of seclusion and views of
things mundane rendered him unpopular
with the spirited, devil-may-care young
sters who deliberately choose the life of
a soldier for the fighting and excitement
it promises. Young Booz should have
been educated for the ministry, or at
least for professional life. Harvard
would have been better for him than
West Point. 1t is plain from the testi-
mony so far adduced that he had chosen
the wrong vocation, for a man who does
not like to fight should avoid the COM
business of fighting. The investigation
will amount to nothing, though all will
regret that so worthy young man met
such an untmely death.

cannot be blotted out or smothered. No
law can permanently hold an Individual
back when he is worthy. The worthy
may be inconvenenced but never de-
feated.
Replying to the question as to how
the negro is to be protected in the South
in the exercise of his rights, Mr.. Wash
ington says there is only one way, and
that is to make the colored man the most
useful man in his community. That, in
connection with the equal enforcement
o. the law will, he claims, constitute the
most lasting and potent protection. The
training that is to fit the colored man to
occupy his place, to teach him to do the
things at his door better than any one
else; to do a common thing in an un-
common manner, is what the Tuskegee
institute aims to do Through such train
ing, Mr.. Washington asserts the sou-
tion of the problem is to come. In con-
clusion he says:
Any individual who has learned to do
something better than any one else has
solved his problem.

a hundred acres of land in all Virginia,
of all the land in that state, and in some
counties there they own a full sixth
of all the real property. Statistics cited
by Mr. Washington show that the value
of taxable property owned by negroes
in Georgia is over $14O0O,OOO, the land
alone amounting to 1,675,OOO acres. In
general trade throughout the South, the
negro is becoming an important factor.
Presenting these facts as merely indi-
eating the progress made by the colored
people, Mr.. Washington takes up the
red problem. He says:
What are the signs of the past and
the present by which we can forecast
the future? In every section of the
South where I have gone, I have sought
AM answer to this question: How is the
black man who has secured property-is
a taxpayer, adds something to the we'll
being of the community, possesses edu-
cation and high Christian character re-
gafded in all the relations of life by the
white race? And almost without excep-
'ti0n the answer has come from both
races that such an individual is esteemed
| ami respected by blacks and whites in the
| community where he resides, and that
| the tendency is more and more in this di-
rettion. If the opposite were true, l ac-
| knowledge I should see little hope for
! the future. But so long as success COM
mands respect and confidence there is
little ground for doubt or dependency.
Let us see to it, my friends, that we
| teach the negro to make himself part
| OF the community where he lives, and
that in every straightforward, honor
| able manner he make friends with the
| white man who is his next door neigh
| bur.

PROPOSED LEGISLATIVE OUT
RAGE.

The fusion members of the legislature
are reported to be contemplating some
,,isb handed outrages in order to IN
crease their majority in that oooE'
Threats are made of farcical lnVes'isa-
.i,rs of the election of republican mem-
bers. with a view of denying them sea's
:, which thew were lawfully and unde-
niahlv elected by the people. The object
of these proposed outrages is, first, TO
prevent the admission of certain fearless
and able republicans who would de-
nounce and expose. if they could not
prevent. the legislative outrages con'en-
mated respecting the rights and property

There are democrats who are not IN
svmpathy with these contemplated eject
ment proceedings. as they have proper
w themselves. and a sense of justice
and a sentiment of state pride. We be-
lieve Governor Toole and Lieutenant Gov
srnor Higgins. when sworn in, will sup
port these self-respecting democrats in
opposition to the brutal and illegal ex-
ercise of power by the fusion majority
in the matter of the proposed denial OF
legislative seats to the republican men,
bers- elect; yet the Inter Mountain takes
this occasion to warn them and all other
democrats that any attempt to unseat le-
sally elected republican members will be
attended with the most disastrous con-
sequences to the Montana democracy.
The decent men of that party would bet
ter call a halt before it is too late. A
legislature with fraudulent majority
may possibly elect two United States
senators, but it is somewhat more than
likely that a federal senate, composed
OF honorable men, might hesitate long
time perhaps four or six years, before
admitting to it's membership two Unit
ed States senators elected by such a leg
islature.
When this fact shall have dawned OF
the benumbed consciousness of some O
the democrats and fusion manipulation
perhaps they will think a while befor
denying seats to Hon. George 7. Baggs

M. Waldeck- Rousseau.

LAS far as have been able
to observe, your most famous
men of today are the mill
lionaires, who have done
nothing but amass great for
tunes. You have produced
men of talent, and men of
genius, and they We're IA
nous in their time. Today,
your chief product seems to
be millionaires.
Now, / have no right
whatever to pose as critic,
because l am not greatly ac-
quainted with American life
and conditions: but it seems
to me, and l think my opinion
is shared by many, that you
are giving too little attention
to the development of the
beautiful in life. This is an
enterprising age, and Amer
lea is the most progressive of
nations, undoubtedly, but it
would be sad if. in your rapid
movement toward CONNER
cial success. you forget to
cherish the gentler arts"

You certainly so it hard
over there. My friends tell
me sometimes, that I am
burning the candle at both
ends, but l tell them they
should see some Americans l
know. Such hurry, such bus
tie, such fine disregard of the
requirements of nature No
other nation but yours could
stand such a life of business
activity, and it is my opinion
that Americans must soon
learn that there are other
things than work in the
world. How many of your
people are discontented and
dissatisfied; one success is
not enough. When one thing
is accomplished there is al
ways something else to be
striven for. l have never
met an American who
thought he had money
enough, for instance"

In Paris l have been sur
prised. sometimes. by the pc
culiar ideas Americans seem
to have of success and what
the word means. l hear them
speak of Mr.. So-and-So being
eminently successful because
he is worth several millions
of dollars, and, when l men,
ton one of your artists or
literary men, they aStound
me by their woeful ignorance
of these men Of genius. Mind
you, | am not saying that all
the Americans l meet are of
this sort, but it certainly
means that the majority of
you consider wealth the one
great thing. 1t is said that
there is not a more general
appreciation of the men and
women who have accomplish
ed wonders in the fields of
art, science and literature.
Perhaps an excuse may be
found in the fact that the
United States is still young"
Daily inter mountain., 1900-12-22
Count Won Waldersee.

You Americans deserve all
the success you have won in
the widely different fields
which you have made your
own. Every little while Eu-
rope is astonished at the
news of some new stride you
have made. You ask me why
l think you are so successful.
Wen. for one thing. you have
a new country, with new
blood and new thought.
There must be something in
the very soil and atmosphere
which makes you strive to
succeed and gives you ideas
and ambitions which no man
has ever conceived before.
Just look at the number
of American students in Ger
many. To my mind, the pres
ence of these young men and
women in all the art and edu-
cational centers of Europe is
a sign that you are destined
to progress further and fur
ther. You are gathering in
the art and science of the old
world, and adding it to the
knowledge you have gained
for yourselves: and the result
can be nothing else than a
generation of men and wom-
en- who will astoniSh the
world by their achievements.
AS far as l have seen it, the

ing to discourage him"

AMERICAN SUCCESS
SIX WORLD FAMOUS MEN GIVE THEIR IMPRESSIONS OF THE
AMERICAN PEOPLE.
LateLo Russo
The Late Lord Russell.

Your energy and persev-
erance are most surprising. l
used to wonder, before l had
met many of you, how the
American manages to accom-
plish so many wonders. Since
| visited America this sur
prise has given way to a
feeling of curiosity as to
what you are likely to do
next. Perseverance is the
chief characteristic of your
energetic people, and is the
main secret. l think. of your
success. Your typical Yankee
isn't easily discouraged. If
he fails in one effort he tries
again, and keeps on trying
until he has accomplished
his purpose.
LAS an Irishman, 1 am ap-
preciative of American gen.
ius for 'hustling.' 1t probab-
ly is true, though, that some
of your most successful men
work too hard. One reads
frequently of the men at the
head of your great enter
prises dying at the age of so
or 60. 1t simply isn't right
for the sake of accommodating
money. which. after all,
doesn't by any means consti-
tute real success, according
to my ideas. A man with
high aims and great ambition
to accomplish some high pur-
pose. will be wise enough not
to ruin his constitution in the
effort to make money. for it,
n itself, is nothing"

Joseph Chamberlain.

"Americans are proverbial-
ly successful in the things
they undertake, and no one
denies that the qualities
chiefly responsible for their
success are self-con1idence
and stick -it-iveness. AM
ericans, indeed, are frequent
r ly successful where others
have failed, and one cannot
but admire the indomitable
will which makes them so.
Haven't you produced great
authors and statesmen and
artists, to say nothing of in
ventors and scientists? You
have more wealthy men, per-
haps, than Iay other nation,
but you have also men who
are famous for something
else than money. If l had
time l could name dozens of
: men who have won for
America the respect of the
nations. Your young men
cannot do better than to
model after your leading
lights, some Of your leading

CHRISTMAS INTER MOUNTAIN.

The appearance of the Christmas num-
Der of the Inter Mountain yesterday was
distinctly the newspaper event of the
year in Montana. Business men and
hocked to the office all even
ing to leave orders for an extra supply,
more than a hundred neWsboys were
kept busy on the street selling papers
until 10 o'clock, while the carrier ser
vice was doubled, but still inadequate
to the work of supplying regular sub
scribers. Today the rush has continued
unabated and wagons have been called

used in the edition. The typographical
lish the great superiority of the Inter
Mountains mechanical equipment, and
| it's capacity to execute work in no way
inferior to that of the largest printing
| establi shments of the east, While the
quality and interest of the reading mat
ter reflected great credit on the Inter
Mountains reportorial staff. SPECIAL
praise is due Mr.. Frank Tra1nor and Mr.
f, w. WINS, who have done most of the
| writing. Cordial thanks are extended to
many able contributors.
The Inter Mountain will begin the new
century with bright prospects and a
firm determination to keep in the lead
of the newspaper procession. The bust
ness men of Butte now realize that the
circulation of the Inter Mountain is
larger and increasing more rapidly than
that of any other newspaper in Moli-
tana. Any advertiser who doubts this

the press room any day at o'clock and
ascertain the truth for himself. Thirty
five carriers, seventy-five newsboys and
