THURSDAY APRIL 10, 1908.
A Muzz!ed Press.

Libby Western News, Rep.): The
Western News has for some few days
been carefully watching the columns
of the daily press of Montana for some
comment on the confession of Charles
w. Clark, son of United States Sena-
tor w. A. Clark, that he offered Judge
T.. w. Harvey of Silver Bow county a
quarter of a million dollars for a state
ment as to certain relations existing
between the said Harvey and f. Au
gustus Heinze. Or to speak more cor
rectly for a statement on the part of the
Judge as to certain supposed relations
existing between Harvey and Heinze.
Up to this time the most careful
search has failed to find any comment
one way or the other, with the eXcep~
ton of a summary in the Anaconda
Standard. The confession of Mr..
Clark appeared in the last two issues
of the Butte Reveille, and certainly
there has been a sufficient time inter
vening to allow the most careful edito-
rial writer on any of the daily papers
to thoroughly digest the confession and
to arrive at some kind of conclusion
for the benefit of their readers. Or in
the absence of editorial comment it
occurs that it would be but fair to the
people of the state who pay for these
papers to have at least published the
confession and let the people themselves
draw their own differences from that.
That there is not lacking in the con-
fession the elements of proper newspa-
per material is so apparent that 1t is
safe to say that in any other state or
territory in the Union it would have
been run at the top of the first page in
every daily paper and with headlines
in the largest type. Yet we find that
this has not been done. Instead the
matter is passed over in silence and
were it not for the Butte Reveille, the
people of Montana would not in all
probability ever have heard of the
matter except in the most indirect way
and in such shape that it would be Z
practically debatable question will
many as to the eXactness of what was
contained in the confession.
According to the Reveille the comics
sion was signed by Mr.. Clark before
notary public in San Francisco. Incl
dentally it will be recalled that Mr.
Clark is fugitive from Montana JUS
tice on account of having attempted t,
bride voters on the streets of Butte las
November. A careful reading of TIN
confession leaves the impression tina
Senator Clark's son was:a star per
former in one of the rottenest combina
tons of criminal circumstances in tn
history of Silver Bow icounty, and tn
full import of such a classification i
apparent to any one who is at al

familiar with the peculiar methods
employed by those who guide the des-
TIMES of the great rival corporations
i'll the big copper camp.
When a resident of Montana reads
that confession and recalls the fact
that the father of the man who makes
it represents this state in part in the
highest Legislative body in Christen-
dom, there is at least food for reflec-
ton. 1t does seem that the least SEN
ator Clark could do would be to resign
his seat in the senate, to in some meas
ure recompense the people of this COM
monWealth for the position we occupy
in the eyes of the nation on account Of
the action Of his son, and as an evil
dence that he appreciates the distiu
guished honor given him when he re-
ceiVed his certificate OF election to the
senate of the United States.
The reason for the action of the daily
press of Montana III refusing to take
notice of the confession is not apparent.
1t may be that following as it does in
the long line of scandalous proceedings
in Silver Bow county, which have from
time to time forced the good name OF
the state to run the gauntlet of public
contumely in other commemorative, it
stir it up. Or it may be that certain
influences are powerful enough to stitle
expression on the subject, or it may be
that other reasons can be put forward.
However, whatever the reason the
people of the state will take the posi-
ton that these newspapers have acted
unfairly in the matter and upon a
further reasoning the conclusion will
be arrived at that practically all OF
them are controlled by either Senator
Clark or persons who are friendly to
him and his interests. The result of
such treatment will be far different
from what those who own these news
papers anticipate, and when these
newspapers are classified among the
'mu1led press. " they will have abso-
lutely no cause for complai mt.
This newspaper is not an ally of the
people who own the Reveille nor O
those who oppose them, yet it does seen
that that newspaper has fulfilled its
: functions as d newspaper better thar
others more capable of disseminating
the news, and an inference can clearly
be drawn that by refusing to condemn
: the act of a son of United States sen
} ator in offering a quarter of million
dollars to a judge of this state, thel
: approve of such action. A muzzlet
t press is almost as blighting as cor
rupt judiciary.
: This newspaper holds that the actor
e of the daily press of Montana in refus
e ing to condemn such methods does no
S represent the sentiment of the people o
l this state.
