THE

The United Daughters of the Confed-
eracy in convention assembled have de-
cided to erect monument to Captain
Wirz of Andersonville, who was COM
mandant of the prison at that place
during the civil war. 1t had been bet
ter. in our opinion, il the United
Daughters of the Confederacy had con-
tented themselves with monuments to
the men that they have been proud
of-such men as Lee and Stonewall
Jackson. But to raise a monument to
the man who was the commandant of
the worst hell-hole of prison in the
south is not altogether matter of
congratulation. That prison and its
commandant are the worst things of
the bloody struggle. 1t is true that
the prisons of the south were Ill kept
and provisioned because not even the
armies of the south had enough to
keep them in food
But the condition Of prisoners in the
Andersonville prison was not alone a
question OF supplies. 1t was q question
OF bad treatment and the record of
Wirz Is not spotless. The southern
prisons are the last thing which should
be matter of memorial except as a
record of horror. The women in the
south have no cause to better by rails
ing monument to this man at the
prison OF blood, starvation and pesti-
lence.

This state Of things. leaving aside
the fact that the plan OF the schedules
is SOME twenty-five years out Of date
and that pins are still listed with au-
tomobiles, calls attention to the fact
that II the committees OF congress
cannot handle the information there
should be some other agency which
can handle it. It will not be possible
in all probability at the special ses-
sion of congress which il called to
consider the revision of tariff to pro-
vide for tariff commission or bur-
eau. This plan Is the one hope for a
real tariff in this country il we are
to successfully compete with the ma
tons Germany, England. Japan and
France) which have a tariff based on
scientific principles.
Until we, too, have tariff based on
facts and not on pull and insufficient
knowledge we shall strive after the
worlds trade with handicap
The people of this congressional
district have the assurance of their
representative about to be-Judge
Barnard that he will vote for real tar
iff revision and a tariff commission.
If he keeps his promises when the
chance comes, that is all that the peo-
pie in this section of the country need
worry about. Taft will do his part.

IN THE MATTER OF the JUDI
GARY AND POLITICS.

Montana is struggling with the prob
lem OF how to keep separate the ju-
dicary and party politics. To do this
they are going to try to make it i'm
possible for any party to have the
power of nominating Or Offering for
election a judge on the party ticket
connection between party and candi-
date is a matter of speculation. Is it
possible in a country where the whole
plan of government is based ON the
party system to divorce even the ju-
dietary from it's operations: It is to
be hoped SO. The theory is what
should be hoped for in this country.
Whether the state OF Montana can do
it Is a thing that other states should
be interested in finding out.
In the smaller courts the matter OF
politics often enters into direct cor
ruption as has been proved in New
York and Chicago time and time
again. It has been one OF the f,lnda-
OF a machine in getting the
support OF the lawless clement. In the
higher courts it has been generally
supposed that the matter Of party was
more or less a blind in many cases for
obvious steals through the courts in
the corporation cases. Would this be
changed II politics, or rather II party,
were eliminated? It is to be hoped,
but the wiles of the corporations are
many.
