A Very Slow Coach.

In these days OF swift times it would
seem that a mile an hour was very
slow pace. And yet it took about fifteen
hours for livery man to drive from
Evansville to Edgerton. Eight ladies,
members of the w. r. G. went to Evans
vile Tuesday to attend a convention.
They started for home at seven o'clock
in the evening and reached here in the
middle of the forenoon Wednesday. The
roads were heavy, the team was balky.
the ladies were weary and the driver
was simply unable to drive any faster.
Just how many stops were made depo-
nent saith not, but it is sufficient to
know that it took about fifteen hours to
drive from Evansville to Edgerton.

STOUGHTON TOO STRONG.
Our High School Team Beaten by a Score
of FL to @.

OF TO
The Edgerton High School foot ball
team was clearly outclassed by the
Stoughton aggregation in the game at
the Driving Park on Saturday afternoon.
Outclassed in weight and in team work
and IN most every other point where sci
ence is supposed to enter the game. The
score q to @ just about indicates the
relative strength of the teams. While
the home team entertained but very lit
tie hope of winning they believed they
might hold the score down to smaller
hgures than were made. Stoughton mad
the ball most of the time leaving the
work of our team a defensive one
throughout, and they were not heavy
enough to stand the rush of line pound
ing of their opponents.
The game itself was interesting. The
two teams were quite evenly matched
except as to weight, the Edgerton boys
being lighter. Early in the game the
Stoughton boys manifested their super
iority. They played together, charged
hard and low, and on the whole were
more aggressive than their opponents
They made their distances easily and
had no offense. Nevertheless Edgerton
played plucky game to the last minute
and fought for every yard. In this par
ticular little Marsden, of Edgerton, did
fine work, his desperate tackling cutting
short many a we'll started play. The
only casualty of the game was the frac-
turing of the collar bone of young
Kroken of the Stoughton team.

The Republican county ticket is
acknowledged to be one of the strong
est ever placed before the people.
Those nominated are gentlemen of in.
tegrity and proved ability. The peo.
pie are not so much interested in the
fortunes of individuals as they are in
the discharge of official duties. If an
officer is competent and thorough in
his work il goes a great ways in sat
isfying those who contribute towards
meeting the expenses of county gov.
eminent. Whenever a change in coun-
ty officials is made a should be
taken that the high standard of ex-
cellence in the conduct of the offices
is maintained. Natural capacity and
experience are essential to the proper
discharge of such duties. The idea
that a public Office is something that
should be passed around through per-
sonal or party considerations. without
due regard for qualifications, Is very
dangerous. II the taxpayers weigh
this point carefully they will concede
that the Republican ticket is compos-
ed of men thoroughly competent to
perform the duties OF the offices for
which they have been nominated.

ering Foxy Joe's recent disgraceful al
lance with Heinze and his S0,000,-
900 New Jersey corporation, now seek
ing to debauch and prostitute the
judiciary of the state. The deduction
is that Gov. Toole is not opposed to
corporations when they will assist him
in his political ambition.
The plank relative to a third term
or rotation in office loses its effect by
the action of the convention in nomi-
mating a candidate for a third term.
The Populist fad, the initiative and
referendum, might do in thickly set
tied communities, though it Is of
doubtful merit anywhere. In Mon
tana it would prove an expensive un-
d%ertaking. Delegated representation
or authority Is less cumbersome and
has served the peoples demands since
the formation OF the government.
They will be slow to accept anything
in its place. or in addition thereto.
The plank relative to the Montana
railroad is far-fetched. Why not men,
ton perpetual motion and wireless
t~elegraphy? But then, the resolu-
tons aimed to mention everything
that Democracy doesn't stand for,
hence this little diversion will be over

Our contemporary will not have the
nerve now to say anything about a
third term" When a nan tries to
step from one office into another in
order to perpetuate his official ex-
istence he does something that is far
more Objectionable than an officer
who succeeds himself. The latter. by
experience. has become thoroughly
competent and having given excellent
satisfaction has some claim upon the
people for his stewardship. While
Mr.. Shaw has filed the sherif's office
acceptably 1t does not follow that he
would do as well in the Office Of treas
urer. He is a third term seeker in
the very worst sense.
Fergus County argus. [volume] (Lewistown, Mont.) 1886-1946, 1902-09-24
THE PLATFORM M.

The platform OF resolutions adopted
by the Democrats in convention last
Saturday were a masterpiece Of dem
agogic art. II there is any question
they did not treat upon it was due to
oversight or lack of time. With much
posturing, stress and grandiloquence
the author and finisher of this mighty
production would have those present
belive that the Democratic party
had done marvellous things for the
state of Montana.
1t would be impossible to take notice
of all the inaccuracies and inconsist-
encies contained in the resolutions,
but a mention of a few will suffice.
In the first place the platform
makes no mention OF national issues.
The peerless leader" the Kansas
City platform and the divine ratio"
are passed in silence, showing how
quickly a party issue and a once idol
lied leader can fall into bad repute
by the memorable test of time and
experience. Having no national e C
ord of any good works in behalf Of the
people it is not strange that no
reference appears. There were too
many among the delegates who suffer
ed under Grover Cleveland's last ad-
ministration to cause their bosoms to
swell with pride at its mention.
The nearest approach of any ref
erence to national legislation was the
praise given Senators Gibson and
Clark for their labors in behalf of the
national irrigation law. While no one
would belittle their efforts in that d.
rection, the fact remains that the bill
was passed by a Republican senate
and a Republican house and sign
ed by a Republican president.
The only man to vote against the bill
in the senate was Senator Berry, Of
Arkansas. whose politics ii is not nee
essary to mention. To President
Roosevelt's earnest efforts, as Senator
Gibson admits, is the greatest credit
due for the passage of the irrigation
bill.
AS regards the eight hour law in
Montana 1t was strongly supported
by the Republicans. Not only that,
they favored an eight hour law to
apply to all kinds of labor. which was
rejected. In this connection 1t is per-
tinent to say that no party. clique
or faction which may control the next
legislature would dare Il modest the
eight hour law as II now stands and
when Mr.. Heinze ins.nuates that al
attempt will be made at its repeal he
is taking the benefciaries of that law
for chumps. and is simply working
them for votes.
The resolution patting Governor
Toole on the back for his attitude
regarding the railroad merger and on
railroad taxation was ill-timed consid-
Fergus County argus. [volume] (Lewistown, Mont.) 1886-1946, 1902-09-24

vague and irresponsible way Of stat
ing a thing. There is not a man on
the Republican legislative ticket that
would not oppose tampering with the
eight-hour law in any way. Every
one oil them stands squarely on the
platform OF the Republican conven-
ton, which reads as follows on that
question:
That we heartily endorse the ac-
ton OF the last Republican state con-
v%ention in its declaration for an
eight-hour day labor, and also the ac-
ton OF the last legislature in passing
the law now upon our statute books
upon that subject. We deplore the
talk on the part of some men in the
state In favor of the repeal OF that
law, and we do hereby pledge u
representatives and senator in the
state legislative assembly to the ear
nest and active opposition to any
measure looking to such repeal"
There Is no evasion or ~equiyocation
in the above plank. 1t says what 1t
can and means what it says.
Furthermore, this question has been
raised by F. Augustus Heinze alone
to curury favor and secure the sup
port Of laboring men. And he in
suits the intelligence of those whom
he seeks to control by endeayoring
to make 1t an issue in the campaign.
No legislative body that could be
called together in Montana would
dare attempt a repeal of the present
eight.hour law. II is in the statutes
to stay and those enjoying its bene-
fits can rest secure in its remaining
there. Let no laborlng mar be mis-
led by an alleged" statement, but
demand the facts and trace down
false rumors that may rise during
the campaign.
