CLARKS COUNSEL OPENS UP
DenOunces the Oppss tiOn and Al

DenOunces the Opp0s tiOn and Al
leges Conspiracy Expects VindicatiOn
Washington, April 5.-Attorney Birney
continued his argument in the case of
Senator Clark of Montana before the SEN
ate committee on elections today. He was
followed by Roger Foster. in Clarks be-
half. Fosters plea was quite sensational
in its denunciation of the prosecution
against Mr.. Clark. Congressman Camp
bell was denounced in unmeasured terms,
as was Whiteside, Attorney General No
Ian and Speaker Stiff. There was an eff
fort, he said, to make it appear that
Clark was more prohigate and more cor
rupt than any Of them-a veritable Count
of Monte Cristo. But this. was all I'M
true. Montana was not modern Sodom
and Gomorrah and these people were
bringing upon themselves the deserved
condemnation that falls upon the head
of the bird that fouls its own nest. as
they do in thus casting asDersions upon
their own state" Foster then turned his
attention to the law in the case. He as
serted that if all the testimony taken
were true it would not affect Clark's right
to his seat in the senate, and proceeded
to sustain this position by an elaborate
presentation of authorities. Continuing,
Mr.. Foster said the defense would not be
satisfied with mere acCuittal. They
wanted and expected a complete vindica-
ton. He then made an effort to prove
conspiracy, which charge, he claimed, was
supported by proofs of threats before and
after Clarks election and by it's proba-
bility to satisfy an ancient grudge. Fos-
ter had not concluded when the commit

the realm of doubt and uncertainty into
that Of settled law We adhere to the
doctrine that the territory acquired as
a result of the war with Spain is under
complete control of the government of
the United States and subject to such
laws as congress may from time to time
enact. We favor the prompt establish
ment Of such permanent government in
this newly acquired territory as viii pro-
mote civilization, education and COM
merce. In the formation of such govern
ment we advocate the home rule princi-
pie. We oppose any backward step on
the subject of expansion"

WANTS TO BE A DELEGATE
Cd Wrightman CT FL Reno Has Ambi-

~
Guthrie, o. T., April 5-Hon. c. ].
Wrightsman. a prominent attorney Of
Pawnee. is in the city today on legal
business. Mr.. Wrightman is a candi-
date for delegate to the national Demo-
cratic convention and expects to secure
the honor. "Pawnee county" he said,
has never been accorded the honor of
naming a national delegate, and this year
We naturally look forward to being rec
ognizeG in that respect. Under normal
conditions our county would be over
whelmingly Republican, but with fusion
the party advantage lies with the COM
bined Democrats and Populists. Yes,
think there win be fusion this year, as
the officeholder. who naturally wants to
succeed himself, is in favor Of it and it
is my experience that the of1ceholder
usually controls party sentiment"
Mr.. Wrightman's mission to Guthrie is
to consult with Attorney General Strang
regarding the work OF the Auti-Saloon
League in Pawnee county. The league"
said he, lis strongly organized and is
raising so many technical objections that
it is well nigh impossible 1,r a liquor
dealer to obtain a license, even though
complying rigidly with the law"

CHINA BEST UNRROKEN
The Rev. nr. u, z. gheA1siU fOT tlltrs
TX ,,eArs Q plisSionaSy m China, ur9ess
In the Heptember Century that the
Middle Kingdom ought not to be Dill v
imembered. .ssiisS
It u easy to say that 1t 10 better that
China be broken up and its people re-
formed in it's social institutions than
that the past corrupt and ant diluvian
order Of society continue; but Is disin-S
tegration or continued stagnation the
only alternative? What are the prog
pective dangers accompanying the DIS
solution Of the Chinese government?
The territory and people would be di-l
ivided up between England Russia.
this order Of things continue? Az a
necessity Of government the Chinese in
large numbers would ultimately re-
iceive western military training and ac-
squire skill and experience in military
evolution. Under proper conditions
of discipline and direction the Chinese
are courageous and hardy soldiers.
The nation has a deep reverence for Its
ancestry, strong race attachment, a
:porfound regard. for its customs and In
stitutions. If the people are broken
apart by foreign power in the time of
their weakness, they will come together
again in fierce collision with that power
when they have in some measure re-
covered possession of their strength.
China is too great prize to be divided
up among the nations of the west, to
become an added element of jealousy
and rivalry. The suggestion of the di-
vision taxes the diplomacy of the ma
|tions to the utmost to preserve peace in
their relations. 1t Is doubtful If 1t can
be accomplished without war, and il
successfully accomplished the possess
sion ard government of this vast disin-
tegrated territory, with its people rest
less under the wrongs they have suf-
fered. would increase the present inter-
national tension and continually jeop-
ardize the peace Of the world.

state. who pledges Is himself to vote
against free silver. and becasas Of such
pledge and similar plsdeDs the free sil-
yer law can not be afIirmAtiveiy passed,
the executive will then have the power,
40 have stated, to force free silver
upon the country.
But 1t may be predicted thAt the same
forces that would repeal the law of last.
session would be brought TO the point Of
passing a free silver law. All the nla-
chinery OF the two houses would be In
the hands Of free silver men.
Now IL 1t be true, a. we all believe,
that our present standard OF money 10 q
significant element in our progress, and
In our prosperity, and that free silver as
proposed in the democratic platform
will bring disaster and distress to our
people, and TO all OF them, there 10 such
a menace to the country In the election
of Mr.. Bryan that 1t becomes every
voter who believes in sound and stable
money and its necessity to our contin-
;ued prosperityto cast iais vote for Will
lam Mckinley and Theodore Roosevelt
at this election, and to vote for MEM
beers Of congress who will uphold With
out reservation the law protecting and
EQeIeHNlHS tHal SldHQdfQ pdSSSU ny 8CUtie
Tgress at its last session.
MUST HAVE CONGRESS WITH HIM.
But these votes for free silver in the
senate are also essential to Mr.. Bryan
II he is to carry out what he calls his
Philippine policy. He must have these
same votes in the senate or that policy
will fail, as he must have at least a
change OF the number of votes have
described in order that his policy as re-
spects the Philippines shall have the
slightest chance of success in the senate
during his administration. and assert
lit as my belief that the chances are
muct better for him to secure with his
election majority in the senate for
free silver than to secure majority for
the plans and purposes he has marked
out with reference to the Philippine
islands. Therefore it is plain that IL
free silver is not an issue In this CAM
lpaign because Of the political complex
ion of the senate, it is also true that
}.imperialism," as defined by Mr.. Bryan,
can not be an issue, and if one is not
| to be discussed why discuss the other?
