HOUSE AND SENATE COMMITTEES

The character of the Legislation to be
enacted by the present legislature will be
determined by two men. These two are
the president of the senate and the
and in accordance with precedent they
will name. in their respective houses. the.
committees to which all bills will be re-
referred. on being introduced. for investi-
cation and report. The first man named
on each committee, will be it's chairman.
Each committee is practically the artiter
of The Hills confided to its care. 1t can
pocket" them or report them favoraby
or unfavoraby or with anne ndment. The
report Of the committee is not necessa-
riy final and before It is accepted or re-
jected. the bill may be made the subject
on general debate and possible amend
ment in the open house. The report of the
committee nevertheless is Endorsed in
open session in the majority of cases,
the belief Of the legislators being, gener-
ally, that the members thereof having
had an opportunity to consider it's pro-
visions are best qualified to judge of its
merits. Only in exceptional cases there
fore is the report of house or senate
committee rejected or revised. For this
reason the personnel of the important
committees become subject of great
concern and is an infallible evil
dence of the real purpose of the
party in power The moment the house
and senate committees on Judiciary,
public buildings, mines and mining, etc
are announced, that moment the policy
of the majority is disclosed and the
people know whether they have been
film TANNED or not; whether the anar-
chists are in the saddle or the soup; and
whether the general trend of legisla-
ton is going to be directed in a spirit
of reason or treason, and whether the
men who love the state and respect
themselves or those who are Indifferent
to the state and who regard self respect
as a disease, are in charge of the legis-
lative band wagon.

THE SPAN OF LIFE.

The Inter Mountain this week an
Bradbury, of Maine. He was not only
the oldest of American statesmen but
the oldest of all living statesmen worthy
of the name. He lacked only one year
and five months of being a centenarian,
and two generations ago was promi-
nent figure. He was a close friend of
Webster, Clay, Calhoun and the other
giants and was the last survivor of the
one hundred men who served in the
United States senate between 1S47 and
1858. He graduated from Bowdoin COL
lege in 1925. having as classmates Long
fellow, Hawthorne and Abbott. Maine
was not yet state when he was born,
and he was young man when Lafay-
cite paid his visit to this country in 1894
and he helped to give the French patriot
welcome. He was a participant in the
semi of American independ-
ence and voted for every president of
the United States from Jackson in 1924
to Mckinley in 1900.
jefferson Davis was Senator Brad
burg's guest at Augusta, Maine, prior to
the civil war and during all the period
of his public career, the Maine statesman
was the associate of the most prominent
men, north and south. We are apt to
look upon life as a brief and fleeing
thing, and so it is; yet what vast ex-
perience, it may comprise! This one
mans life, which embraced the friend
ship of Lafayette. of LongfellOw. of
Webster and Mckinley, was rich beyond
the experience Of almost any man who
saw the dawn of the new century.

stituency which cannot be reached
through any other daily paper published
in this vicinity, hence an advertisement
in its columns is read and will bring re-
turns. Not only this. but this journal
stands upon its own merits as a news
paper. 1t has no mining companies or
corporations to boost it or to compel
employees or others to give it patronage.
We believe very few of the business
men. or the people of Butte, have kept
track of the growth of the Inter Noun
tain. Today it is in many respects the
largest and best equipped newspaper
between Minneapolis and Portland. 1t oc-
cupies five floors of the Inter Mountain
building. each being 100 feet in length by
20 feet in width. 1t has eight Mergen-
thaier typesetting machines. a complete
hindery which turns out the finest blank
books. complete job printing depart
ment. q stereOtyping department and a
most perfect illustrating and engraving
department which has just been in-
stalled. Such briefly is the equipment of
the institution and we invite a visit at
any time from any of our citizens.
AS to the value of advertising space
in the Inter Mountain we assert.
that it lis not excelled by any
of our competitors, and upon this uues-
ton We are anxious and willing to sub
patrons.

THE FUTURE OF CUBA.

d. Senior Maxine Gomez, Of the Cuban
constitutional convention. is particular
ly active in his efforts against any SUI
pervision by the United States in the
cred, the Cubans are almost unanimously
in favor of utterly ignoring the United
most broadminded Cubans who are not
a whit less patriotic than the extremists;
Captain Thos. H. Wilson, of the Unit,
ed States army, a man exceptionally
Well informed as to Cuba and the Cuban
character has contributed some valuable
information regarding the present situa-
ton. He says that the political vagaries
of Cuba in the past are, in the light of
possible future developments worthy of
NOR than passing mention and the re-
cent death of Martinez Campos, ex- cap
tain-general of Cuba, recalls to his mind
the celebrated "Treaty of the Zonzon,"
in which this same MaXhmo Gomez
played a most important part. From
1860 to 1868, says Captain Wilson, the
island of Cuba was subject to a military
despotism. There We're no constitutions
al laws, an power being vested in the
captain-seneral mighty enough to do as
he pleased. About this period the people
began to show desire to obtain the
rights denied them by the Metropoli, and
such noted men in science and politics
as Jose Saco. Gaspar Betancourt Cisner-
os, Jose Maraais Lernus. the count nof
Posoo Dulles and others, really secession-
lists. petitioned the Madrid government to
grant reforms compatible with the adj
vancement of the colony. This pressure
caused Canovas del Castillo, then prime
minister Of Queen "Ysabel Segunda," I'd
publish royal decree directing that a
committee of the most prominent Gu
bans be appointed to appear before the
Spanish court and state what reforms
We're desired. The committee was duly
appointed and sent to Madrid, and in
spite of the fact that their case pos
sessed all the elements of right and JUS
| tice, the chickering's, jealousies and per-
sonal selfishness OF the members of the
| delegation led to disaster. Nothing faY-
oraible to the colony resulted; on the con-
trary, the taxes were increased, and the
imperial government announced that the
committee Of representative Cubans had

Is HE A GRANDFATHER

While the milionaires are contending
about the disposition of the senatorial
short term and many excellent gentle
men are mentioned. why has there been.
no suggestion of the possible candidacy
of Judge William Clancy of Silver Bow?
He is a populist. and his party has the
balance OF power in the Legislative as
sembly. His popularity was attested in
the last election. Mentally he is quite
as We'll equipped as some senators now
serving in Washington. His honor is a
man of imposing figure and good adj
dress. He has strong face. good
habits and natural dignity of deport-
ment. He has frequently extended help
to his friends who have now an oppor-
tunity to reciprocate by sending him to
Washington. If he has any enemies;
they would consent to spare him for a
brief period. SO that the short term
would just suit them, as we'll as him.
Has the populist party the courage of
it's convictions? If Judge Clancy were
worth a million dollars would it hesi-
tate to elect him? With Caldwell EG-
wards in one end of the national capt.
col. is it not the imperative duty of our
legislative assembly to place Judge
Clancy in the other end? The friends
of the judge made it possible for the
democrats to have one senator. If there
be decency or gratitude within the dem
ocratic ranks. they would return the
compliment. 1t is in no spirit of levity
that the Inter Mountain INDUCES in
these reflections. Judge Clancy's cleo
ton to the senate would be but natu-
raj and honest consequence of the fusion
campaign last fall and the approval of
the platforms of the two victorious par
ties. We assume that he conscientiously
believes in the principles laid down in
by the people after a full discussion of
the issues.
Judge Clancy comes from a state
whose citizens would rejoice at his cleo
ton to the senate and whose escutcheon
would receive no stain resulting from
his public service.
In the recent election nearly 10000
citizens of Silver Bow county voted to
place Judge Clancy on the bench.
What better endorsement could be asked
for any man aspiring to the senate?
\ few days ago the democratic press
of this city, fearing the probable candi-
dacy of his honor. undertook to side
track him by reporting his intended
early marriage. thus turning his atten-
ton to thoughts of love. The perfidy
of this plot is the more glaring because
of the fact that within the past four
years Judge Clancy has probably listened
to testimony in 1000 divorce cases, and
the democratic press knows it.
Has the populist party at Helena the
courage and honesty Of it's convictions?
