MONTANA IN THE SENATE.

An esteemed cotemporary a few days
ago criticised the Inter Mountain for hav-
ing objected to any further neglect of
Montana's material welfare on account
of more legislative scandals. Neverthe-
less the Inter Mountain desires to reit-
crate every opinion it expressed on that
subject.
What good did the last investigation
accomplish? What principle did it
establish? What reform did it bring
about? What benefit did it insure?
While it lasted, and from it's finish to
the moment a full senatorial delegation
was elected, Montanas material inter-
ests suffered through insufficient repre-
sentation, two heads being better than
one.
The men who in the bitterness of fac
tional strife and the hope of factional
triumph began that investigation over
looked the neglect of public business
which must result from their personal
rivalry when carried to Washington.
Nobody suffered from the proceedings
except the common people of the state
and the state itself.
This year a duplicate scandal was
threatened. Men We're sent to Washing
ton to file papers and make trouble for
the state. Its chosen representatives
were to be again besmirched and their
influence for good weakened, regardless
of the facts, regardless Of the public in
terests, regardless Of the costs. The
plot was doomed to failure, but the hope
was to injure the reputation of the sem
ators and the state, and to that end the
barrel was opened and the agents were
put to work.
The Inter Mountain, recalling the
events of the last investigation and the
bitterness resulting from it, expressed
the hope that the people might be spared
another infliction of the same kind. It
asserted that no such agitation, based
on motives Of personal revenge or the
doubtful objects of itinerant reformers,
could possibly succeed It detailed hof
since the states admission to the Union,
there had been but four years of undis-
puted, peaceful and complete senatorial
representation from Montana. 1t asked
that the senators elected last winter be
allowed to serve out their terms in peace
and be given an opportunity to look
after their public duties without inter-
ruption and misrepresentation.
Montana has enough troubles at homo.
Let her reputation in the nations cap
ital be protected from further harm.

TIRE WORDS OF ROOSEVELT.

The Standard yesterday morning in an
article on political subject printed the
following language, which it attributed
to Theodore Roosevelt in a speech he de-
livered at Minneapolis on his western
tour during the campaign:
The democrats stand for lawlessness
and disorder, for dishonesty and dis
honor, for license and disaster a home
and cowardly shrinking from duty
abroad.
The Inter Mountains recollection is
that Theodore Roosevelt never used that
language. He was accused Of it by his
political oppon ants, but made a denial
SO emphatic and SO prompt that it was
never again quoted against him. That
he tersely criticised the policy and aims
of the democracy in his Minneapolis adj
dress is true, but his words We're garbled
in the first printed report, and a refer
ence to the stenographic notes proved
his utterances to be far less offensive to
the delicate and sensitive leaders of the
democracy than at first believed.

REPUBLICAN HARMONY NEEDED.

If there ever was a time when the re-
publicans of Montana should work IL
harmony and confidence for the triumph
of those principles they deem essential
to honest and efficient government. thai
time is the present.
Already plans which contemplate the
capture of the legislative and judicial
machinery of this state, and which bode
no good to the cause Of justice and de-
cency as advocated by all patriotic mel
whether they be republicans or demo-
Gratis, are in visible operation in various
counties of the state.
Last winter the republican members
of the legislature, cooperating with the
better elements of the democracy as rep
and his friends, saved the state from
much evil legislation by a narrow mar
gin. That cooperation may continue as
far as state affairs are concerned in the
next Legislative body, for. on some prop
ositions, all good citizens can agree. In
view of the senatorial election of 1904.
however, it behooves republicans to
bestir themselves and rally their forces
with a view to electing a republican ma
jority next fall, in order if possible to
elect full quota of hold-over republic
can senators as we'll as a majority Of
house members.
Every good citizen is personally inter-
ested in the purity of the various
branches of the state government.
Every good citizen should watch with
a jealous eye how each official dis
charges the duty devolving upon him
under oath. Every good citizen should
hold to strict accountability every
public servant whose course smacks of
favoritism. or neglect or wilful wrong
doing. The patriotic men of Montana
have a right to demand honesty in high
places, and when that is accorded, they
have a right to view with alarm the
plottings of those who would lower the
official standard by the nomination of
plant and unfit candidates to insure
private gain at the public expense.
Let the republicans nominate the best
men if they would succeed. They will
not succeed otherwise, for the people
know how to discriminate and they Will
give their SURFACES for the reelection
of honest, tried and true democrats as
against any men on the republican ticket
that may be lacking in the qualities Of
honor and capacity.
The record is now being made up, and
it's showing will not fail to be under
stood by the people.

1t was with no intention Of rejecting
injuriously upon the dramatic business
Of Manager John Mcguire that the Inter
Mountain printed a statement on Sat-
urday to the effect that the theatrical
syndicate companies would not be billed
at the Grand opera house. Many of the
best organizations on the road are en-
tirely independent of the syndicate, and
the public may rest assured that Man.
ager Mcguire will have his proportion
of the best of them. There is perhaps
no monopoly in this country at present
that finds less favor with the American
public than the theatrical trust, but
neither Manager Sutton or Manager
Mcguire is responsible for it's operations
or likely to be injured by it's rules.
Each is doing the best he can for his
patrons. and fortunately this town is
big enough to furnish a profitable bust
ness for both.

so THE FARMERS MAY KNOW.
A Telephone newspaper That Gives
Everv One the DAVIS Events,

At Z o'clock tonight farmers all over
Upton county will have the contents of
the Indianapolis News thrown against
their eardrums by combination of the
ingenuity Of Editor Postmaster w. s.
Pershing and the new farmers tele-
phone company. Every night thereafter
Upton county farmers living remote
from a railroad or postoffice will have
as full an understanding Of the worlds
in Indianapolis.
Editor Pershing'S scheme has passed
the experimental stage. He began it
after the first farmers cooperative tele-
phone line was connected up with Tip
ton, six months ago, and has gradually
improved on the idea until he now de-
livers to subscribers a complete news
paper every night.
AS soon as the last edition of the
News is received from Indianapolis Ed
itor Pershing or his assistants begin to
edit their strange paper. They take
headlines and enough text to give full
story of all matters of Interest. At
o'clock the farmers all over the county
are at their phones. Some have extra
long insulated wires, and have pur-
chased additional attachments, by which
they are able to fasten the receiver close
to the ear. They are able to sit at the
family table and repeat the news to the
family as it comes over the wire, or sit
out on the veranda in an armchair and
smoke while listening.
At prompt there are three rings. and
every farmer adjusts his instrument to
his ear. The report opens:
Good evening. Now, all quiet Wash
ington standard time, forty seconds af-
ter O'Clock. Weather indications for
the next thirty-siX hours, fair and cool
er, with probable rains tomorrow after
noon. Chicago markets-Corn, 60 cents;
wheat, oats. clover, rye, timothy, etc.
Local markets-Corn, 50 cents" etc.
Then follow the crop indications that
have local application, the quotation of
the stock market and other routine
valuable to the agricultural classes. AZ
ter this routine the foreign news Is
given; then comes state news, ard then
a grist of local matters of Importance.
When it is all over few minutes are al
lowed for farmers to ask questions and
to tell any news of Importance in their
localities. The service also includes
Washington gossip and political matters

There is sense in the suggestion that
the rich men and rich corporations of
the state should donate most of the
money for Montana's exhibit at st.
Louis. They expect to receive most Of
the benefit. The men who own mining
and real estate aud are anxious to de-
velop and sell their property are the ones
to bear the expense of advertising the

make up any deficit that might occur.
