REPUBLICAN STATE CONVENTION

Considering that there were but two
Offices for which nominations were to
be made the Republican state conven-
ton held in Helena last Saturday, was
one of the most representative and
largest in the matter of attendance
fully 500 delegates being present. The
members of the party gathered under
the most encouraging auspices and
the deliberations of the convention
were marked by genuine enthusiasm
from first to last.
The address of ex-senator Mantle
upon calling the convention to order,
was an oratorcal gem. His eloquent
tribute to the great leaders OF the
party from Abraham Lincoln to Theo-
dore Roosevelt brought forth tumult-
uous applause, as did his reference to
the great achievements of the latter
in his efforts to bring about reforms
in behalf of the people. Mr.. Nantes
statement that conditions might arise
whereby the demand for Theodore
Roosevelt TO again lead the party TO
victory would prove irresistible. was
greeted with the loudest approval.
Senator Carter and Congressman
Dixon We're happy in their remarks.
though they refrained from taking up
the time of the convention with eX-
tended addresses.
The contest for the congressional
nomination was of short duration ow
ing to the rapidity with which Charles
N. Pray's strength developed. Recog
nizing the popularity of his rival fol
the nomination. the Hon. Fletcher Mad
dox gracefully withdrew from the con
test and magnanimously offered to pre-
sent the name Of Mr.. Pray to the con
vention, which he did in neat speech

Song of the Souls That Failed,

We come from the war-swept valleys,
Where the strong ranks clash in
might,
Where the broken rear-guard rallies
For its last and losing fight:
From the roaring streets and high.
ways,
Where the mad crowds move abreast
We come to the wooded byways.
To cover our grief, and rest.
v ten We hear the plaudits thunder.
And thrill to the victOr's shout,
We envy them not. nor wonder
At the fate that cast us out;
For We heed one music only,
The sweet, far Voice that calls
To the dauntless soul and lonely
Who fights to the end, and falls.
We come-outworn and weary
The unnamed host of life;
Long was our march and dreary,
Fruitless and long our strife.
Out from the dust and the riot
From the lost. yet glorious quest,
We come to the wales of quiet,
To cover our grief. and rest.

unanimous choice as the nominee for
congress, is at present the prosecuting
attorney for Chouteau county. He IL a
young man of recognized ability In his
profession and popular wherever
known. In his remarks accepting the
nomination he pledged himself to work
constantly for the interests of Mon
tana if chosen to succeed Congressman
Dixon, whom he took as an example
worthy of emulation. Mr.. Pray Will
prove a fit representative of northern
Montana and the entire state. He will
stand on his own merit as man, free
from corporate dictation or strings Of
any kind II the people of Montana
want clean. able and industrious
young man to succeed Congressman
Dixon they will have him in Charles N.
Pray.
In the contest for the nomination of
an associate justice of the supreme
court, Fergus county had candidate
in Hon. Edwin X. Cheadle. and al
though the honor went to Henry G..
Smith. of Lewis and Clark county, the
Fergus delegation has every reason to
feel proud of the handsome vote given
its candidate. From first to last Judge
Cheadle and his friends carried on a
clean and honorable campaign for the
office, free from promises, trading and
petty devices to win support. The
with the dignity of the high office and
he made friends thereby which will
prove of value in the future, for his
candidacy for place on the supreme
bench of this state is only postponed,
not abandoned.
Judge Henry C. Smith, the nominee
of the convention, is one of the trial
judges of Lewis and Clark county. He
has been on the bench ten years and
had the advantage of an extensive &C
quaintance throughout the state in his
candidacy for the position. Judge
Smith has been very successful as a
trial Judge and is regarded as one Of
the most popular members of the Mon
tana judiciary. That he will be elect
ed by large majority goes without
saying.
The platform. which will be found
elsewhere has the true Republican
ring. whether dealing with national or
state legislation. 1t commends the
vigorous efforts made by President
Roosevelt to secure remedial legisla-
! ton for national evils as we'll as the
hearty support given him by congress.
The demand for additional legislation
of a corrective nature as regards the
state is timely and will meet with gen.
eral approval.
The Republican state ticket and plat
form are now before the people of
Montana and both should appeal very
strongly to the support of the voters
Of this young commonwealth.

MR.. BRYAN'S RAILROAD PLAN.

Minneapolis Journal; Mr.. Bryan's
fantastic dual, state and national own
ership of railroads has been before the
public less than two weeks. but in
that short time the peerless one has
received an impression that it is pure
ly his own doctrine and not to be
forced on the democratic party.
When he invaded kentucky yester-
pared statement in regard to the rail
road question which showed that he
had been touched by the unpopular re-
ceptiOn of his plan. He does not ex-
pect it to go in the platform unless al!
the democrats want it. This is very
fortunate for the democratic party, for
if they once put it in their platform
Mr.. Bryan could be depended upon to
see that it did not come out again, no
matter how impracticable it might ap-
pear to be. Free silver was inserted In
the platform of 1896 and Mr.. Bryan
kept it there in 1900. He would not
let go of the issue. though he had
been decisively beaten upon it and
the country had declared as loudly as
IT could that it preferred the single
gold standard. Every argument that
mortal voice could voice was used to
get Mr.. Bryan to consent to the drop
mir Gil
that question was that the democrats
might Leave out of their platform if
they liked, but they should in that
event. leave his name off the ticket
This was the sort OF free voice the
democrats had in their platform max
ing in 1900
In 1904 Mr.. Bryan went to ST. Loui.
and fought for three days against drop
ping free silver from the platform. H,
succeeded finally in compelling thu
convention to stultify itself by maxim,
no allusion to the money question. Il
1906 Mr.. Bryan returned from a tri

his burden. The weight of free silve
rolled from his shoulders. He parte
with it in almost the same words pre-
posed by the convention two years be
fore and stopped him. This show
democrats the danger of putting an
fantastic Bryan doctrines in their pla
form while he lives for he will neve
let them be taken out again until tn
party has been churned in the mire @
defeat. Then he will rise up with al
other word-surprising issue to tax
the dead ones place.

issue is settled until it's settled righ
Mr.. Bryan is the greatest issue in tn
democratic party. and the party wi

Possibly the Democratic convention
passed up Samuel Anderson like a
white chip because they didn't want
another candidate from Lewistown,
but you can't make Mr.. Anderson be-
lieve it. The cards were stacked
against him early in the game. Mr..
Marshall has been defeated once for
assessor, while Mr.. Anderson has
never before sought an office since be-
coming a resident of the county He
is an Ord resident of the state and has
always been a steadfast Democrat. He
is not only competent to fill the posi-
ton but had he been elected the office
would have proven great financial
benefit to him in his advanced age. For
some reason the Democratic bosses
had it in for him.

Speaking of The candidacy of B. c.
White for state senator. our contem-
porary says: ''B. c. White has been
untiring in his devotion to the cause
of Democracy. Year in and year out
he has travelled over the county preach
ing the doctrine of Jefferson. Many
times he knew that the fight was hope
less but that did not deter him from
everlastingly -ammering away at the
Republicans This is refreshing and
should be inspiring to every Democrat
who is not we'll informed. We would
not for d moment accuse Mr.. White of
assuming the character of DR.. Jekel
and Mr.. Hyde. for he is a gentleman
for whom we entertain a strong per.
sonal regard. But candor compels us
to admit that Mr. White has been a
tower of strength to the Republican
party Of Fergus county. The doctrines
and policies of the Democratic party
when partially put into practice were
SC destructive of the industry in which
he is engaged that an innate sense OF
justice and fairness compelled him tc
admit that Republican policies snatch
ed him from the verge of financial ruin
and placed him on the path that lead
to wealth and prosperity. Now thai
Mr.. White is seeking political honors
at the hands of his party he cannot be
expected to exercise the same freedom
of utterance he otherwise would wher
only his financial interests We're con
cerned. But Mr.. White is on record
The best speech he ever made in hi:
life was at the Jeffersonian banQue
held in this city several years ago
For the benefit of those Democrats wht
have not read this address. and for tn
purpose Of adding to the gayety of tn,
campaign, we shall reproduce it at al
early date.

Even this brief recognition Of the
gentleman from Paris" did not pass
unchallenged. Delegate Besn1er, Of
Kendall, at once took exceptions to the
resolution. He asked the very peril
nent question, "What has Clark ever
done for Montana, except to spend q
few millions to buy his way into the
senate" Mr.. Bernier saw no reason
for endorsing Clark and his methods
and moved that the resolution be
stricken out, but his motion was over
whelmingly voted down. Mr.. Bernier
is undoubtedly an honest. conscien-
tious citizen and he was correct in his
estimate of w. A. Clark, but he did
not readily discover the motive of
those who framed the resolution. They
probably have the same opinion of
Mr.. Clark. but the latter had promised
months ago to take an interest" in the
campaign and it was with the hope of
getting some of the swag that the
poorest excuse for an endorsement
ever written of United States sena
tor found a place in the platform.
But it was more than was deserved.
Then, again, it is possible w. A.
Clark may be candidate to succeed
himself in case the legislature is Dem.
ocratic. 1t behooves every Republi.
can to stand Loyalty by his legislative
ticket in the coming election If he
wants to make sure of avoiding the
disgrace the state has borne for the
past six years.
