Militarlsm Opposed.


We oppose militarism. 1t means con-
| quest abroad and intimidation and OPP
preston at home. 1t means the strong
arm which has ever been fatal to. free
citizens have fled from in Europe. 1t will
impose upon our peace-loving people a
large standing army and unnecessary
ace to their liberties. A small standing
army and a we'll disciplined state militia
are sufficient in time of peace.
This republic has no place for a vast mil.
itary service and conscription. When the
nation is in danger the volunteer soldier
is his country's best defender. The ma
| tional guard of the United States should
ever be cherished in the patriotic hearts
of free people. Such organizations are
ever an element of strength and safety.
For the first time in our history and coe-
val with the Philippine conquest has there
been a wholesale departure from our time
honored and approved system of volun-
teer organization. We denounce it as I'M
american, undemocratic and unrepub-
lican, and as subversion of the ancient
ana fixed principles of free people.
Monopolies and Trusts.
Private monopolies are indefensible and
| intolerable. They destroy competition,
control the price of all material and of
producer and consumer; they lessen the
| employment Of labor End arbitrarily fix
terms and conditions thereof, de-
| ital of their opportunity for betterment.
| They are the most efficient means yet
devised for appropriating the fruits OF in

satiate greed is checked all wealth win be

National Control.

| unceasing warfare In nation, state and

After the call of states was completed
the secretary began to call the roll on the
ballot for the presidential nomination. AS
the roll call proceeded the shouts of APP
prevail of the unanimity of the vote seemed
to increase. All of the large states were
cheered heartily as one after another they
cast their votes for Mr.. Bryan. The list of
states and territories was completed with

announcement by Chairman Richardson
that Mr.. Bryan had been nominated for

After the nomination of Bryan the con-

The leader., 1900-07-11

Believing that our most cherished in
situations are in great peril, that the very
at stake and that the decision now to be
rendered will determine whether or not
our children are to enjoy these blessed
and honored, we earnestly ask for the
foregoing declaration of principles, the
hearty support of the liberty-loving Amer
lean people, regardless of previous party
affiliations.
The leader., 1900-07-11

We denounce the lavish appropriation
Of recent republican congresses, whici
have kept taxes high and which threaten
the perpetuation of the oppressive wa
levies. We oppose the accumulation of {
surplus to be squandered in such bare
faced frauds upon the taxpayers as tn
shipping subsidy bill, which, under TIN
false pretense of prospecting American
shipbuilding, would put unearned million
into the pockets of favorite contributors
to the republican campaign fund. w
favor the reduction and speedy repeal o
lne war taxes and a return to the time
honored democratic policy of strict econ
omy in governmental expenditures.

Edward Streicht returned yesterday
from a weeks outing spent near Ham
ilton. During his absence he visited the
Bitter Root stock farm, owned by Marcus

Days racing .iorss and prospective
racers. Among others was Hamburg. the
animal for which Mr.. DAILY paid $40, 900.
and then won the amount in purses hung
up at eastern tracks before bringing the

are several promising youngsters at the

when they have reached a racing age.

GREAT FALLS WON IT.

The winning streak OF the Butte Dalt
tossers was suddenly checked yesterday.
Great Falls did the trick. and came within
an ace of shutting the home team Outfalto-
gether. 1t was only in the last inning that
the Buttes took a brace and scored their
only runs. Great Falls did not play its
last half, having won by a score Of ito z
without it. 81
The game was largely a pitchers battle
between Jones of Great Falls and Beyille
of Butte. While the former had a shade
of advantage, honors were nearly even as
between the pitchers, the victory being won
by superior all-around playing on the part
of the visitors. ,
1t was a miserable day for ball playing,
clouds of dust sweeping over the diamond
at intervals and almost binding the men.
