Next, Dan Boyle, Of Livingston was
nominated for railroad commissioner
for the six-year term. Mr.. Boyle, like

state, and his intimate knowledge Of
railroad affairs fits him peculiarly fo1
the Office. Z

The Gazette this morning pays its
respects to those newspapers in the

WHEN BRYAN DECLINES TO.
TALK.

IA few nights ago MI. Bryan stood
IN III q cart in the city Of New YORK,
smoke to a crowd. A mar who claimed
to be a union workman crowded for
ward and asked IL it was true that ne,
Bwan) had remarked that the labor
ing men were a lot Of beggars. He
stated that he was a union ironworker
and that he spoke in the interest OF
organized labor. Bryan refused point
blank to answer the question, insist
ing that it was the part OF a
Republican conspiracy.
Well, OF all things.
If Bryan did not say that "the work
men are a lot Of beggars" what harm
could there be in denying it? And II
the man who stood up in that crowd
had been sent there by the Republi-
cans, the quickest way to stamp the
falsehood would have been by brand
Ing 1t as a lie at that time.
But Mr.. Bryan said he did not pro-
pose to answer such questions, which
leads to the suspicion that he DID
make the statement, and that he re
fuses to deny it, for the simple reason
that the Republicans have caught hin
with the goods"
You NAV be certain that no presi
DENTAL candidate would refuse to deny
such a statement if it was false
Mr.. Bryan's refusal to discuss thu
matter leaves the mass Of the voter
to draw their own inference.

THE REPUBLICAN STATE TICKET

The state ticket nominated by the

cluded it's work in Helena yesterday.
is the strongest ever placed before
the people of Montana.
Every man on it is widely known
and is popular in the Treasure State.
That it will sweep the state in the
election in November, goes without
saying.
The men are well known to every
body. They have lived here for years,
and have helped to make Montana
great. They have the interest OF the
commonwealth at heart.
The ticket is geographically vel
distributed and the candidates are ex
cellent men, who have been careful
IL selected with regard to their ability
for the office for which each has beer

They are entitled to and will re
ceive at the hands Of the people OF the

STATE PRESS COMMENT.

The tact which the Democratic pres
idential candidate has taken in his
present campaign in the "enemyib
country" is interesting in view OF
his record, and his statement that
his popularity is growing because the
people have fallen in love with his
"ideas." Bryan does not specify In
great detail the ideas" and It is
interesting to know if he should make
a tabulation Of them where would free
silver and the government owner
ship find a place. But he has a new
lot of 'ideas" which he trusts will be
better vote getters than the old ones,
and he is working them to their full
limit.-Helena Record.

Bryan advocated and helped to frame

to our industries in the years 1894 t.

WHEN A coRBLER FOOLS AN
ARMY.

Alderman cobbler conceived the Idea
that the officers of the army did not
possess the entire sum of human
knowledge.
In appearance he resembled at least
one officer of rank. So he clothed
himself in the uniform OF a command
er, and boldly took charge Of one OF
the garrison troops. AS there was no
opposition to his intrusion, he conclud-
ed that life was easy, il only you know
how to take it.
It was but the work Of a few mo
ments to enter into an argument with
a number Of men. and q few moments
later he had the guard house full Of
officers. The men Of the rank and 6le
were SO completely deceived by his
resemblance to the commander that
they obeyed his orders without hesi-
tation, and, doubtless, with consider
able satisfaction.
With the officers out Of the way
the imposter then proceeded to rob
the treasury Of the troop, which he
cleaned out completely. He was ar
rested, and sentenced to a term in
Jail. BY this time the news reached
the Kaiser, who is nothing If not
original.
The humor Of 1t all appealed to him
so strongly, that he pardoned the shoe
maker, to the chargin Of the officers.
and the manifest amusement Of the
men of the line. 1t Is needless to
state that the Kaiser's act provoked
the greatest laughter on the part OF
the people. The officers made thus
the butt Of ridicule, were punished fol
the dereliction and gullibility in the
most public manner possible, for from
this time henceforth the cobbler may
hold up his head haughtily as he pass
es the shoulder-strapped men, and they
, will find 1t quite impossible to make
an exhibition Of pride at the same mo
ment.

the MONTANA REPUBLICAN
PLATFORM.

II makes ones heart swell Win
pride to read the platform adopted Dy
the Republican State Convention at
Helena. It is just the sort OF a plat
form an all-powerful, successful and
progressive political organization IS
expected to put forth.
1t pledges the party in the state 70
uphold the policies and principles OF
president Roosevelt, indorses the work
Of representatives in congress, and
declares against the alien contract
labor system, and for protection OF
the American workmen.
It pledges the congressional delega-
ton to continue the fight for the I'm.
provement Of the navigable inland
waterways.
The administration Of state affairs
by Republicans is pointed to with
pride, and the record Of pledges kept
Is referred to proudly for in the con-
duct Of one state Office alone, a mat
ter Of approximately $4,000 has been
saved to the taxpayers.
The work Of the railway commission,
the organization Of which was brought
about by Republicans, has already
brought beneficial results.
The platform pledges legislation to
assist in the redemption Of the arid
lands, and the extension Of the frriga'
ton system of the state, and declares
in most emphatic terms against the
infiction Of excessive punishment
either by fine or imprisonment, fol
contempt Of court.
The platform proposes the Inaugural
ton Of a systematic advertising cam
paign in behalf Of the state, to tn
end that reliable information with ref
erence to the resources Of the mines
