A POLITICAL TUMBLER.

1t is astonishing to note the chang
es in the minds of great men, re-
versals often so sudden as to dizzy
the brains of an astonished public.
In 1893, Joseph K. Toole, now
fusion governor, and leader of the
Clark forces in the democracy of
Montana, gave vent to the following:
''No prudent or loyal democrat,
no populist or silver republican Of
intelligent conviction, can expect
this great heroic party (democratic)
to abandon its name, abdicatc its
power and prestige, destroy its
organization, and forfeit the we'll
earned confidence of the people by
assuming the name and submitting
to the leadership Of that tentative
political fungus called fusion, which
never fails to comprehend in no
small degree among its adherents
an aggregation of malcontents, un-
disciplined and incorrigible, who are
glad enough to conceal their identity
under the guise Of most any political
nondescript that means nothing,
speaks for nobody, and is responsible
to nobody. | believe in maintaing
separate and independent political
parties.
"Poesibly fusion might make more
certain the accomplishment of certain
desired results in certain states where
local evils need correction. but who
cannot foresee that victory won
under such a combination would be
freighted with hazards and followed
by train of evils that would
probably outweigh and outnumber
any possible advantage obtained.
Chief among these reckon that al
most uniform lack of responsibility
which a mongrel ticket feels for its
course and conduct. TO encourage
such, in my opinion, tends simply to
demoralize and destroy those patriot
ic forces accustomed to act upon
principle, and. substitute in their
stead that discordant, disappointed,
scrambling element that never rises
higher than 'expediercy' or policy,
the profoundest statetmanship of
which is employed first in salts,
factory division of the offices, and,
second, in devisihg ways and means
by which, upon the expiration of
their terms, they can divide them "a
gain,
This expression was delivered at
the democratic convention in Helena
only two years ago, when Mr.. Toole,
who wants to be governor, believed
that no amount of pie could equal
the value of principle. Now he
heads rabble which stands for moth
ing but pie. If there is grain of
principle in the demopopolaboratic
party, its microscopic periphery has
not been detected. But Joe Toole
is there. The great apostle of prin-
ciple and lifelong foe of "tbat tenta-
tive political fungus called fusion"
is at the soiree, ragging on the head
set. Q, Joe Toole, if you are no
fool, how could you do it?

TURN ON THE LIGHT.

Great Falls is after the hop joints

turn on some of that cheap light
which the Tribune was going to
furnish the citizens, they could see
their way to prosecute the offenders.

A REMARKABLY CONVENTION.

The state convention held by the
Montana democratic faction known
as the ''vindicators'' was remarkable
in many ways. 1t was made har-
monious by ejecting regular delega-
tions chosen in some of the counties;
it sought support by fusion with the
populists and labor party, and sue
ceeded in roping in the former by
conceding them some of the nomina-
tions; and it adopted a platform
which omits many things of great
interest to the people, of Montana.
There are several subjects upon
which the "vindicators" were expect
ed to declare themselves, and of
which no mention is made in their
platform.
The democratic state administra-
ton, for instance, is matter to
which the 'svindicators'' fail to
'point with PRIDE" AS the first
real democratic administration since
Montana became a state, Gov. Smith
and his fellow officials should receive
commentator or censure, but the
platform leaves them severely alone.
Lieut. Gov. Spriggs, who sacrificed
his personal and political reputation
on behalf Of the ssvindicators," is not
given word ofpraise. His appoint
menb of w. A. Clark as senator un-
der sensational circumstances pre-
vailing at that time, was an act of
heroism that certainly deserved rec
ognition at the hands of his friends.
The services of Tom Kinds, in per-
suading Gov. Smith to leave the
state and give Spriggs an opportun
ity to execute the job, also deserves
at least vote of thanks from the
convention.
1t was reasonable to expect that a
resolution of sympathy would be
passed in favor of Ex-Attorney We'll
come who was disbarred for partic-
pating i'll the carnival of bribery at
the last session of the Legislature.
A whack at the supreme court in
this connection would also have been
proper, but none of these thing ap-
pear in the state platform.
Neither does the state platform
challenge the justice and righteous
ness of the verdict of the senate COM
mittee, in declaring that w. A. Clark
had no right to a seat in that body.
The appointment of Maj Maginnis
as senator by Gov. Smith, is also a
subject upon which the platform has
nothing to say.
The platform denounces the Anal
gamated company as an enemy of
the people, but makes no mention
of the democratic measure known as
house bill No. 1872 under which
that corporation came into existence.
But the greatest and most signifi-
cant omission of allan omission
which tells its own story-is the
failure of the indicators platform to
say one word on behalf of those re-
publican members of the legislature
who supported the senatorial candi
dacy of w. A. Clark. If these men
performed magnanimous and hon
orable act, for which they have been
censured by their political associates,
why did not the democratic conven-
ton come to their defense? Were
they SO we'll rewarded for their SER
vices that the indicators concluded
there was nothing more due them?

snow don't stay ON he'll fetch you in the
buggy"
Afterward Mrs. GLADDEN. declared that
pa spent the happiest week of his life
getting ready for that couple to be re-
united. 1t never struck his warm and
innocent heart that anything could GO
amiss. He piled up special wood for
the parlor, he lowered around the two
bedrooms, he actually had his finger in
every pie and cake baked. He went to
the village store alone once or twice.
and after the last visit, wore an air of
the deepest mystery.
