GUBERNAToRIAL TIMBER.

Red Lodge Picket: In a column of
deserved praise the esteemed Nilsson.
liam. everywhere recognized as one
OF the leading organs of the Republi-
can party of Montana. has launched
a g%ubernatorial boom for Chief Jus.
tice Theodore Brantley of the state
supreme court, whose present term
of office will expire next January.
In thus early presenting a candi-
date TO head the state ticket our Mis-
soula contemporary is doubtless &C.
tuated simply with a desire to feel of
the political pulse that beats with
Republican throb. and not with aEy
notion of slate making, for that Is oh.
nOXious to the electorate of all par
ties.
Certainly there can be no harm in
presenting for popular consideration
the lame of any man for any public
office, and especially does this apply
to such an important and exalted po'
litlcal station as that of chief execu.

Down in Nebraska the suspicion
prevails that Mr.. Bryan is friendly
to Hearst as a presidential candidate
although he is al present non-commit-
tai. However this may be Hearst is
not likely to get much support from
what there is left of the Popullst
party in that state. The Nebraska
Independent. the recognized organ Of
the Populists and which has given
Mr.. Bryan loyal support in the past,
is strongly opposed to Hearst. In a
recent editorial on his candidacy the
Independent goes after him in the
following s%corching

him by inheritance, a history of

EGoLESToNIAN PLATITuDES.

Considering that DIR. Eggleston
nearly stranded the Helena Independ-
ent by his anarchistic writings while
editor of that paper, ii was rather
strange that he should be selected
to address an assemblage of Demo
Gratis on the anniversary of Thomas
Jefferson's birthday. Eggleston does
not represent the Democratic party
in Montana. He is not a represen-
tatiye Democrat in any respect. He
is not connected with a representa-
tive journal. The Helena Press is not
a newspaper. II has no circulation
in the state and no influence among
the people. Eggleston is a prolific
writer of radical and u~ntruthful slush.
In his address published by our con
temporary there are numerous state.
ments to be found that are utterly
devoid of truth and as many o
that show an inconsistency which
must be apparent to any observer of
passing events. Here Is one glaring
instance of the hyberbolic bombast In.
dulged in by the writer. He says:
THE Republican party has gone off
on its wild goose chase for colonies
and world power, so as to turn the
minds Of the people away from the
problems here at home. II points to
its rainbow in the orient so that the
trusts can pick u pockets more sue
cessfully. The longer we stand like
gaping fools admiring that rainbow.
the iirmer grip will the corporations
have on MS when we urn to look at
things here at home"
The Republican party has gone on
no chase for colonies" The Phil.
ippines and Porto Rico zane into our
possession as a result of the war with
Spain. But for this war they prob.
ably would have remained under the
despotic rule of Spain for years TO
come. Porto Rico as well as Hawaii
will undoubtedly be held by this
country owing TO the advantages of
the islands as naval bases and coal.
ing stations. The Philippines will
eventually become the possession of
a people raised from barbarism TO
a state of civilization capable of free
government. Was il not as just a
var as ever a nation was engaged in?
Wouldn't il have been a crime to
have left the Filipinos TO the mercy
of Spain or to the rapacity of arr
ing tribes among their own people?
When before. or since, has the Re.
publican party been chasing after col
onics?
Now as to the trusts. Ii was q
Republican who drew up the anti.
trust bill, a Republican congress that
passed IL. a Republican president
who put IL into operation in the mer.
ger case. And yet. although the law
is conservative and constructed by
It's author, John Sherman, with great
care that il should stand the consti.
tutional test, every Democrat on the

The Hon. Tully Scott in his JEFF,
ferson day address said "Jefferson's
conception of government was indi.
vidualism in the supreme, and he
said that all men are created equal
Not equal in intellect, not equal in
physical form, but equal in govern
mental right and governmental priv
ilege." Now Jefferson may have be-
lievod this as he was opposed to
slavery. but modern Democracy does
o follow his teachings. What does
Mr.. Scott think Jefferson meant when
he said, all men are created equal"
Did Jefferson have reference to white
mon only? Mr.. Scott endeayored to
explain that it did not have refer
10 intellect nor 10 physical
form hut he was careful not to say
anything about color. Mr.. Scott
knows that the only hope of Demo.
cratic success lies in tnc south where
the black man has been deprived of
his constitutional right to vote. JEFF
fersOn also said taxation without
representation is unjust Yet thous-
ands of colored voters throughout the
south owning millions of dollars
worth of property are denied repre-,
s%entation and the right to vote. But
Mr.. Scott and his party preach
equal rights for ALL Either the
black man is not a man and citizen
according to the modern Democrat
ic view or he is ~unlawfully deprived
of his rights.
