TOWNE STILL IN POLITICS.

The speech delivered by Hon.
Charles A. Towne at Tammany's
Fourth of July celebration is conclu-
sive proof that he is still in politics.
He took imperialism as his theme and
IN the course of his remarks thus pre-
sented his views on colonial policy:
cat the same instant of time Spanish
tyranny was intolerable in two hemi-
spheres. Against it Cubans were in
revolt at our very doors. Against it
Filipinos were in armed revolt half
way round the world. Each sought
national independence, and we knew
it. Fellow citizens, when the inuuisi-
ton of after ages shall arraign us at
the bar of history, who shall answer
the question: why was a war for the
freedom of one people changed into a
war for the subjugation of another
people. You accepted the services of
the Fllipinos in conquring the Spanish
you gave them arms and ammunition;
you put them in your trenches; you let
them fight for you, bleed for you, die
for you; you know they thought your
object to be the independence of the
Philippine islands; why, when the
fleet of your common enemy was sunk
deep in Manila bay, did you turn your
guns on your allies and substitute your
own for Spanish rule when they were
equally opposed to both?
"Why did you denounce as traitors
millions of people not born under your
jurisdiction and who had never vowed
you allegiance? How can the descend
ants of the American revolution pur-
chase the bodies, the country and the
allegiance of ten millions of unwilling
people for twenty million dollars? If
you had already got them by right of
conquest, why did you pay twenty
millions of dollars for them? Why did
you not treat the Filipinos as you treat
ed the Cubans?
All! Americans, these questions can
not be answered consistently without
national character and honor We
must not, indeed, leave them to be ask
ed by future generations. We must set
ourselves right while yet there is time.
We who have done the wrong must re
pair it. We must not substitute for the
old American ideas the tawdry and
barbaric standards of the outworn
civilizations. We mist not barter the
mora! leadership of mankind and I've
sponsorship of human freedom for an
ignoble precedence in the ranks OF cor
rupt and despotic nations.'

1t might be interesting to some of the
News readers to know that Mr.
Lyndes' testimony was not absolutely
correct We give below, verbatim, the
testimony of Mr.. Lyndes in which he
tons with Mr.. c. d. Joslyn of Deer
Lodge, regarding the receipt of ten
thousand dollars by Mr.. Hopkins for
political purposes in Rosebud county.
This testimony is found on pages 453,
asa and ass of the official transcript of
the testimony and is as follows:
Q. You testify here as of your own
knowledge that the situation was such
that Hopkins must have been aware of
or know of these alleged schemes of
colonization of these imports. Upon
what do you base that statement?
A. He discussed the matter with me
himself, if nothing more.
Q. When did you discuss the mat
ter with Mr.. Hopkins?
A. think it was the night of the
Joe Dixon meeting here as I recollect
it now.
Q. Can you remember the date?
A. No sir, l do not. l know Joe
Dixon came along and talked with
Mr.. Hopkins the same time was talk
ing with him.
Q. What did Mr.. Hopkins say to
you in that conversation to make you
think that he must have been aware of
or knew of the existance of the SCENE
of colonization?
A. l think he had returned from
Helena and we were discussing the
subject as to him getting ten thousand
dollars. He asked me what l had
heard about it. 1 stated that l had
heard considerable in the west part of
the state, in fact more than I had
known about it until l went there.
think he characterized Carter as liar
for saying it and l told him l didn't
see Mr.. Carter but did hear it from
Mr.. Joslyn, who said that Joe Toomey,
chairman of the democratic committee,
said he had been given ten thousand
dollars for carrying the county. He
said it was tough for fellow to have
the reputation of getting ten thousand
dollars and not getting it, and there
the conversation ended.
9. That is the basis on which you
make the statement under oath that he
must have been aware of the scheme
of colonization?
A. Yes sir, in that conversation Mr..
Joslyn told me he had seen Mr.. Hop
kins three times in Butte and had
asked him If he had part in this
sending of men down and his reply
was that he knew very little about it.
This was early in the campaign but it
was plain that he knew and seen what
was going on If he had been around on
the street of Forsyth as resident of
Forsyth and had lived here for more
than thirty days.
9. What could he have seen that
was going on to impress him with the
fact that the county was being colo
nized?
A. He could have seen bands of
twenty and thirty men who had never
been seen in the community before be-
ing marshalled into the registration
office.
9. Who is this Mr.. Joslyn you have
reference to?
A. He is Joslyn from Deer Lodge
county now, or Powell, a tall, dark
man with a dark mustache;
got acquainted with him four years
ago. Mr.. Hopkins 1 knew him because
we were all working in the interests of
Powell and Rosebud counties.

Have you heard about it? John c..
Lyndes the purifier.
Rosebud County news. [volume] (Forsyth, Mont.) 1901-1906, 1903-07-23

upon Jos1sn's statement that Hopkins
! had been asked about the colonization
and he said he didn't know anything
about it?
Mr.. Joslyn is a republican, was
member of the last state republican
central committee and is an honest
man. Mr.. Joslyn has always stood
for purity in politics so far as can be
had, but he couldn't stand. for Lyndes
testimony. When Mr.. Joslyn was told
of the evidence give, by Lyndes. "The
purifier of politics., he declared it abb
solutely false and following we give
his sworn affidavit regarding the
matter:
State of Montana, CO
County of Powell.
c. d. Joslyn of Deer Lodge, Powell
county, Montana, being first duly
sworn on oath deposes and says that
he has read the testimony of John c.
Lyndes attached herewith, given upon
his cross examination before the COM
mission appointed and sitting to take
testimony in the senatorial contest in
Rosebud county, Montana, entitled
Clarence r. Lane plaintiff and con-
testant, versus James S. Hopkins, de-
fendant and contestee, which testimony
relates to certain alleged conversations
had by said Lyndes with this affiant.
| This affiant further says that he
never had any conversation with the
said J. G. Lyndes in which he told
Lyndes that Joe Toomey, chairman of
the democratic committee, had said
that ]. S. Hopkins had been given $1O,-
900. 90 or any other sum, for carrying
the county of Rosebud or any other
county.
And furthermore, that he has no
recollection of ever having had any
conversation. of any kind with said J.
c. Lyndes regarding ]. S. Hopkins,
or the acceptance of any money by ].
S. Hopkins for the colonization of Rose
bud or any other county.

We wouldn't for the world accuse
Mr.. Lyndes of perjury. In all prob
ability he was mistaken when he testi-

But this is not all the testimony
which Mr.. Lyndes gave. Lack of
space prevents us in this issue from
referring to more of it. We will take
this up later.

with conscience which would have to
be spread out thinly to cover ten
cent piece; who would cut the word
friendship with the sharp edge of a
silver dollar, and who has no concep-
ton of the rights of any man except
himself.
Mr.. Lyndes appeared before the
court in the most unfavorable attitude
in which man could possibly appear.
He appeared as attorney, witness and
republican leader. Is a man under
such circumstances to be believed?

THE "opEN SHOP, DISCUSSION.

1t is. Of course. a foregone conclusion
that the American Federation of Labor will
pronounce against the "open Shop most
emphatically during its present meeting at
Boston. For those unfamiliar with the
terms used in this discussion of labor man
agement now becoming so widespread. ii
may be said that the "closed shop or
union shop is one in which union men
are employed exclusively: the "nonunion
shop is one in which no members of unions
are employed. and the ''open shop is one
in which both union and nonunion men are
employed: in other words. that no questions
relating to a mans membership or nom
membership in trade union are asked
1t is one of the cardinal principles of
every labor union that employment shall
be ''by card;" that is. that no man not
able 10 show a card of member ship in a
union shall be employed. They do not. of
course. make this an invariable rule.
Where they are weak in town, in a shop
or a line of trade, they have no objection
TO working with nonunion men until they
can become strong enough to control, but.
as soon as that stage is reached. the de-
mand is at once made for the CLOSED
shop
The contention of the various employers
associations that have sprung up recently
The Indianapolis journal., 1903-11-13

is not for "nonunion shop" but for the
''open shop" where no discrimination is
made in employment on any other ground
than ability to do the work satisfactorily.
There are doubtless many extremists
among employers that would like to see
the unions smashed altogether, but the
broader and more intelligent men among
them do not agree that the unions are
wholly bad. There is a necessity for some
force TO resist the tendency, born of self
interest, to reduce costs by reducing wages,
and the labor union offers the only possi-
BILE solution of this question for the indi-
vidual worker. II is necessity for him,
and herein lies the answer to the conten-
ton Of the labor leaders that the closed
shop is essential to the very existence of
the unions. 1t is not at all essential. They
never have it while they are gathering
strength, but only after they have grown
strong enough to control. The union never
gathers strength so rapidly as when ii is
lighting not merely for its own members
but for all the workers in trade. This
was amply demonstrated by the anthracite
strike, from which the United Mine Work
ers emerged with twice the membership in
the anthracite fields it had when it entered
on this movement.

COARSE EFFORTS TO BE FUNNY.

An editor of a publication at Delphi, in
an effort to make coarse jest on the sub
ject of local wedding. ran afoul of the
thereof pleaded guilty to federal indict-
ment. The incident calls attention to the
fact that a very large class of people
throughout this country carry the time
honored wedding jocularity altogether too
far. and while they seldom go to indecent
lengths in their efforts to be funny, as in
the present instance, their humorous at
tempts usually smack of a coarseness that
is entirely out of harmony with the civili-
zation of the day.
The charivari, or "shiveree." as II is
commonly called, is an institution of his
toric antiquity. and when confined
to a drumming that compels the re-
turned groom to produce barrel of cider
and the pipe Of peace, is interesting and
harmless enough but the efforts to embar-
the newly married couple before
strangers is q different proposition. Start
ing with the harmless old custom of throw
ing rice for good luck, it progressed to
the matter of playing tricks with the
groom's clothing, to tacking ribbons on the
travelling trunks, and. finally, to the send
off, at the train, where some humorist
announces to the assemblage of travelling
men and other strangers that these peo-
pie have just been married, and another
idiot distributes handbills to the same ef-
feet, embellished with remarks more or
less impertinent or imbecile, as the case
may be. The only possible effect of such
performances is to make the bride and
groom miserable and cause all other pas
sengers blest with good sense to feel fool
ish.
The line between laughter and disgust is
a very narrow one. and the amateur come
dians essaying great jocularity on the oc-
casion Of their friends marriage almost in
variably overstep it. 1t seems a pity there
is no way for the aggrieved ones to reach
the great majority of them as the Delphi
editor was reached.
The Indianapolis journal., 1903-11-13

The Journal trusts the declaration of City
licenses is not the same quality of make
believe as the declarations of Mr.. Holtz-
man in regard to Sunday liquor selling and
winerooms have thus far proven to be. The
interminable tangles in regard to licenses
that have developed during the past year
afford a very good illustration of the dan
ger Of stretching the law instead Of Oob-
serving it to the letter. Whenever par
ticularly bad case Of law violation by
saloon keeper came UP it developed that
he was merely operating the saloon for
somebody else, or that by some hocus-
pocus he had no license to revoke. This
state Of affairs would be impossible if the
state law regarding the issuing of licenses
were strictly observed, for great safe
guards were thrown about this end of the
business by the Legislature. The law con-
templates that the saloon shall be con-
Quoted by the person to whom the license
is issued. The license is not a part of the
saloon property, but a permit issued to a
particular person to engage in the sale Of
liquor at particular place. The law fur
ther provides that this person must have
been a resident of the township a certain
length of time, that ne must be of good
repute and that he must file bond, signed
by two freeholders as sureties. All this in
order that any violation of the law may be
punished by revocation of license and that
there may be recourse to civil damages by
any person injured by such violation. The
controller has under his jurisdiction IL
cense inspector whose business it is to see
that the law regarding licenses is complied
with. 1t is his province, not that of the
County Commissioners, to see that the sa-
loon is conducted by the man holding the
license, or, to put it the other way, to see
that the saloon is closed If the man con-
Quoting it has not a license in his own
name and in proper form.
