ran up against II hard. Mathewman
had conclusively ruled out confessions,
when Williams brought Mr.. Haysel-
den on the stand. In answer to Will
liams question as to where he first
met Soto, Hayselden promptly replied
that he had met him when he took
him to the spit where he killed the
Chinese and made full confession OF
this affair. The court notified Williams
that confession testimony was ruled
out and fined him $40 for contempt.
Williams proceeded to go on with
his case but was told that he must first
purge himself from contempt The
unfortunate attorney had consequently
to ask for fve-minute recess during
which he borrowed the amount OF his
fine and paid It over. 1t was later on

ON PARTISAN LINES.

Quite a number of democrats and
republicans in Montpelier have ex-
pressed themselves as being in favor
of drawing party lines for the COM
ing city election and each party
nominate a ticket. The Examiner
Is in favor of the proposition, not
because the paper Is now advocating
the cause of repnblicanism, but be,
cause we believe that it will be for

the best interests of the city. Mont
peller has reached the point where
it is about to take on a new growth,
and whether or not the government
of the city during the coming four
years is controlled by democrats or
republicans, we believe that it would
be best to have one of the two
parties responsible for whatever is
done.
With a non-partisan administra-
ton the people have only the indi-
vidual members of the adminlstra-
ton to blame. while If a city is con
trolled by onc party or the other,
the people can hold the party re-
sponsible for any sins of omission
or commission of which the admin
~istration may be guilty.
When non-partisan tickets are
named, it is seldom that any sort OF
a platform is ever adopted, and the
winning candidates GO into office
with no fixed policy in view and
with no pledges to carry out looking
towards any municipal improve
ments that may be needed. On the
other hand, if partisan tickets are
named each party would adopt reso-
lntions setting forth certain policies
that they would deem to be for the
best interests of the city, and the
successful candidates would take up
the burdens of city government
with some fixed ideas to work upon.
Then if the administration failed to
redeem the pledges made during the
campaign, the people know upon
whom to fix the blame and at the
next election thew would have the
privilege of placing the administra-
ton in the hands of the other party.
"A campaign Oh partisan lines can
be conducted just as clean as upon
non partisan lines.
As the question is being agitated
and as the republicans are in the
ascendency. both in the state and
county, 1t will naturally be up to
them to take the initiative in the
matter. We therefore suggest that
a meeting of the republicans of the
city he held some night next week
to discuss the question ard decide
whether or not they will place a
straight ticket in the field for fhe
approaching city election.

before the committee on privileges
and elections. We think that in
either case no cause for lnvestiga-
ton ever existed. If Scarf did
make the statement attributed to
him or If Archbishop Ireland really
advised the people publicly to sus-
tain Mckinley, as he is reported to
have done, we see no cause for ra1s-
ing a disturbance any more than we
see cause for the periodical cry
against Mormon church influence.
1t is u opinion that the influence
of Archbishop ireland and Mormon
church authorities is far more com
mendable than a great many other
influences which often control cleo
tlons, and tor our part we a to
both preach and teach politics the
same as other citizens, observing the
limitation which any person must
observe of leaving the people free
to accept your advice or not, Just as
they may prefer.
If Scarf, to fulfill his guaranty,
had used all the Catholic prelates IN
America we have no objection, pro-
viding the peoples free agency was
not destroyed.
We have no unfriendlness for
Catholics, in fact We tolerate freely
In our feelings every religious de-
nomination, and II suggestions of
last week were simply to call atten
ton to what would appear consist
ent for congress to do if all church
influence is to be eradicated from
politics. Personally, we believe
that the church influence complained
of is simply a bugaboo-and that the
american people are too sensible,
too independent to refrain from ex-
ercising their political privileges.
We did state that "the opportun-
ity (for investigating the Catholic
church) should not be missed which
is a sentiment we recommend to the
consideration of those persons whose
extreme observation-disclosures views
oblige them to admit the propriety
of the suggestion.

AN EXPLANATION.

In last weeks issue we took occa-
sion to refer to the statement of
United States Senator Bard of Cal
%ifornla to the effect that one, +. L.
Scarf, a professor in the Catholic
University at Washington, had APP
preached him with the proposition
that if congress would appropriate
$500 600 for two years to the Cath
olic Mission Schools which are es-
tablished at Indian Reservations the
said Scarf would guarantee that
twenty doubtful congressional dis
tricts would 60 republican. Senator
Bard declared that this proposition
to rendisr assistance in politics was
made to influence legislation for the
benefit of Catholics, and in our
article referred to we endeavored to
point out that if the statement of the
senator is true-which we neither
affirm o deny-we have evidence
that the Catholic church is interest
ing itself in politics with a view to
assisting it's schools.
IN view of the extreme care exer
cised by the professionals against
Senator Smoot to show that the
Mormon church dictates the politics
of several states. we stated that
there is now a like occasion for as
certaining the political workings of
the Catholic church, presumlng as
we have a right to do that the inter.
ference Of the Catholic church in
politics IS as inimicable to the inter
ests of free government as interfer-
ence by any other denomination.
We further stated that if an attempt
were made to investigate the Catho-
lie church for alleged political
activity, and the scope of the in
curry was as extended as in the
Smoot hearing, we might be en-
lightened upon many matters per-
tanning to Catholicism which had
no relation to the question supposed
to be under investigation, a few Of
which matters We suggested. We
are informed that some of our
Catholic friends are grieved at our
statements and consider the spirit
of the article %unfriendly. We wish
to state that we had no other motive
than to point out the existence lf
the senator's statement is true) of a
condition so much objected to when
the Mormon church is concerned,
and TO snow that the same cause ex-
lists for investigation as Is alleged
TO have existed when Mormon lead
ers were summoned to Washington
