the villain on the jaw with a left and
give the "chink" a poke with the right

sidestep and duck me after they get their

makes the long spiel about being badly
abused would be pie for me all the time.

CHARACTER

Had the Anaconda wing of the
Clark and his immediate co-workers, it
would have made a more favorable i'm
preston upon the community than it has
succeeded in creating by accusing every
body who is not identified as a defender
of it's wing of the party with being
particeps criminis in the legislative de-
linquencies of last year. In it's attempt
to bullyrag and override the public, like
a Juggernaut crushing the heathen be-
meath it's wheels, h a faction of the DEM
ocratic party las attempted to literally
smash a large number of prominent men
in this state, who could not be coerced
into taking sides in a disgusting bourbon
row.
On the theory that all those who would
not enlist in its ranks, in it's warfare
against Clark, must necessarily be on the
other side of the fence-too narrow be-
tween the eyes to recognize the possibili-
ty of independence, If not indifference to
the outcome of a political dog fight-men
Of the highest character have had all
sorts of mud thrown at them by such
! vain-glorious sheets as the Standard.
Among those assailed was Hon. Joseph
K. Toole, the first governor of the state.
! Despite the fact that Mr.. Toole is an
| ardent democrat, and oftentimes carries
his political convictions to an unwarrant-
ed extreme, he is a gentleman above re-
proach. His character, in both public
and private life. is without a blemish

THE SHOOTING OF C0EBEL.

No recent event has caused more ex-
citement thar the attempted assassina-
ton of Goebel, late democratic candidate
for governor of Kentucky, which took
place today while the contest over the
gubernatorial hair was drawing to a
close in the legislature of that state.
While no apology can be offered for so
horrible a crime, Goebel was a man who
invited extremes Of feeling and acting by
the example he set. He robbed the state
convention of his party of the nomination
for governor, practically at the point of
the pistol, and was awarded the honor
of being placed at the head of the ticket
with the same propriety that a highway
man accepts a pocketbook from his VIC
tim.
In the election that followed, the self
respecting democrats Of that state re-
fused to support the distinguished bull
dozer, giving their fealty to a nominee of
their own. This resulted in the election
of Taylor, the republican candidate,
since which time Goebel has resorted to
every tactic which ingenuity could in
vent to dfsposses him of his seat
Having a democratic majority in the
legislature in his favor he carried the
contest into that body, with every pros
pect of winning through partisan fraud
that which was denied him by the voters
of his state. His, hackers and agents
have publicly declared that Goebel would
be seated, even if they had to wade in
blood to accomplish that end, and every
effort was made to inflame his supporters
to the fighting point.
The natural outcome of the situation
was the carrying Of weapon by the
champions of each side, and recently a
large number of republicans armed with
Winchesters camped in the state house
grounds, with the declaration that JUS
tice houl be done. In the meantime
Goebel's followers were preparing for
war. and for some days a revolution has
been imminent. The shooting of Goebel,
by some unknown person concealed in a
house across the street, will bring mat
the good fortune to prevent a riot of ex-
traordinary dimensions. they cannot hope
to head off the feud which is bound tc
develop from the situation and the assas.
sinations that may follow the unfor.
tunate events of today.

The Anaconda Standards struggle to

pitiable a collapse as one might witness
in the experiences Of a lifetime. 1t makes

Inter Mountain has not at all times OBJ

votes a column to the work of trying to
twist out of shape the unansWerable logic

showing that the Inter Mountain meant

the Standard makes a most lamentable

hoffman ON THE ISSUES.

State Senator Hoffman Of Gallatin
county, who has been prominently men,
toned in connection with the democratic
nomination for governor this year, takes
issue with the editorial folderol which
has unpublished the columns of the Ana
conda Standard and the Helena Index
pendent during the past year, relative to
the expansion issue. In an interview in
the Washington Post he says:
AS far as the expansion question is
concerned, it seems to me that the over
whelming sentiment of the country is to
hold what WI LAY acquired. We must
extend our commerce or get left In the
race. The most magnificent opportunity
of such extension is presented through
our ownership of the Philippines. What
~stupendous folly it would be to %renounce
that ownership. 1t would make us the
laughing stock Of the world, and it would
be an unparalleled act of national imbe-
cilty. tf @fJl1 %a1s 'eHa~. IT
This position on an issue Of vital i'm,
p%ortance to the country is in marked
contrast to that taken by Governor
Smith, who also aspires to the demo-
cratic nomination for governor. The lat
ter, in a public interview on the admis7
sion of Hawaii. favored expansion, but
Immediately reversed his views on that
question when the leading democratic
papers of this state came out against
the acquisition Of additional territory.
General Hoffman,, however, has refused
to temper his views to the passing
breeze. On the silver question the Gal
latin statesman Is also more candid thar
the balance of his party leaders in this
state. He recognizes the trend of politi-
cal events, and the position into which
his party is inevitably drifting. On these
points he says:
I have favored the free coinage of sill
yer, because. if enacted, the result would
be enormously beneficial to our people
locally. At the same time I recognize
that the people of the east, with tremen-
dOuS and commercial interests,
ought to know something of monetary
questions. At any rate, we lost the fight,
and yet Montana is in a highly prosper
Gus condition. Men who used to be
tramping about begging for food and
eager to work at any wages, are now
extremely independent, and take their
pick of jobs at high prices. When such
conditions exist people reason that it is
not wise to make a change and that the
party in power gets the benefit Of the
situation.
While General Hoffman is not quite az
~heterodox as the Anaconda Standard
and does not avowedly proclaim his be.
lief that the relative values of silver and
gold are fixed by the worlds exchanges
he nevertheless subjects himself to
democratic hauling over for admitting
that prosperity exists in connection witt
the single standard policy of the repub'
lican party.It is also noticeable that Gen
eral Hoffman says, II have favored tn
free coinage of silver" instead of II d.
favor the free coinage of silver. HI
had better get ready to dodge. for tn
Helena Independent keeps its howitzel
loaded for just such game. /. H.
