every opportunity, they would have
been as popuar in this state as Sena-
tor LaFollette is in Wisconsin. and
Mr. Murdock, the house insurgent
leader, is in Kansas.
If these two representatives Of
Montana had done their duty by their
state and respected the wishes of
their people, the democrats in this
campaign would have had nothing
left them to do but endorse the
action of the two gentlemen in Wash
ington.
Both OF them, if they had served
their home people half as well as
they served Senator Aldrich and
Speaker Cannon, would have found
themselves in the some position that
Mr.. Hartman did in 1896, when the
democrats endorsed his candidacy.
Now, Messrs. Carter and Pray dis
cover that they have no standing with
the rank and file Of their home peo-
pie, whom they betrayed, and the
senator from Rhode Island and the
speaker Of the house cannot assist
them, except to the extent of seeing
to it that the republican committee
furnishes them with ample campaign
funds.
1t is related of Benedict Arnold
that after he betrayed his country the
English had no respect and very lit
tie use for him, and men OF high prin
ciple across the water declined to
meet him and refused to shake hands
with him.
So it seems likely that although
Senator Aldrich was very glad to
have Mr.. Carter's vote on all but five
Of the schedules Of the tariff bill, the
gentleman from Rhode Island in his
heart entertains supreme contempt
for western senator who voted
against the interests Of his own peo-
pie and to allow the trusts and COM
bines to levy tax upon everything
they purchase.
Mr.. Pray imagines, Or claims he
does, that Speaker Cannon has an in
tense admiration for him, because he
broke his pledge to the people of this
state by voting for Mr.. Cannon.
The chances are that Mr.. Cannon
has the utmost contempt for man
who could be SO weak as to break
state
All through history it is found that
the strong rascals never have had any
liking for the dupes who served their
purpose.
Even if this is not the case in the
present instance, did Senator Carter
make good exchange when he for
feited the friendship OF every loyal
citizen of Montana in order to curry
citizen of Montana in order to curry
favor with Mr.. Aldrich and the
trusts?
Was not the respect of his fellow
citizens worth more to Mr.. Pray than
the smiles of Speaker Cannon?
1t is too bad that both these men
who might have stood SO high in the
regard Of their Montana fellow citi-
zens, should have thrown away their
future and traded off principle for
such a mess OF pottage
The fate in store for these men
who betrayed their people, should
prove an object lesson to other weak
men who may be elected to office
after them.-Butte Miner.
CONSISTENCY. THOU ART A
Fergus County Democrat., 1910-11-01

Do the peoule OF Montana want to
perpetuate Cannon and Cannonism as
ruler OF congress? If SO, vote for
Charley Pray, who told citizens of
Lewistown that he would not vote for
Cannon for speaker, and who not only
voted for him but was one Of Cannon,
strongest supporters throughout the
entire session.

CARRIERS BETRAYAL.

Senator Aldrich's name beginning
wit hthe first letter Of the alphabet
and Senator Carter's with the third
when the roll Of the senate was called
upon any schedule Of the iniqutous
tariff bill, the gentleman from Mon
tana sat in his seat like a poll-parrot
and voted "yea" or may" just as the
gentleman from Rhode Island ind:
Gated he should do
There were 12o votes IN the senate
on the different schedules of the tariff
measure, and out of that number Mr..
Carter voted 12l times the same way
that Mr.. Aldrich did.
Five times the Montana senior sena-
tor voted differently from the senator
from Rhode Island, one of these oc-
casions being when Mr.. Carter out
Aldriched Aldrich by voting to place
tax Of 10 cents per pound upon tea.
Upon three votes, in which the in
terests of the trusts and combines
were not involved, Mr.. Carter failed
to vote but all the rest of the time
he was there like duck voting with
Senator Aldrich and New England
There was no proposition submitted
to tax the people of this state more
than they were paying under the
Dingley bill that Mr.. Carter was not
for.
He was not only willing, but
anxious that the citizens of this COM
monwealth should be made to pay
tribute to New England to the highest
amount possible.
He voted whenever possible to
place a higher burden of taxation up
on the people who had honored him
by sending him to the senate to repre-
sent them.
No one was spared.
The farmers that he now pretends
to love SO much were not considered
by him when this tariff bill was in the
making, and when he could have
helped them.
On June 26. when a motion was
made by Senator Bacon to put on the
free list plows, harrows, reapers, har
vesters, mowers and other farm ma
chinery, how did Senator Carter vote,
Was his voice raised in behalf O
the new settler batting with the virgi,
soil in Montana?
| No, he lined UP with the harveste
and agricultural implement trust ant
voted "nay."
i On May ID, when Senator McLauril
moved to put on the free list "al
kinds of farming implements or tools
carpenters and blacksmiths' TOOLS
how did Senator Carter vote?
Did he think about the Montan;
farmer Or the mechanics of his state
whose capital is made up largely o
the tools of their trade?
No. his thoughts were all with tn
Implement and tool trusts, and hi
: vote was recorded "nay."
One June p, when Mr.. Stone, o
: Missouri, moved to place boots an
. shoes upon the free list, how did Sena
tor Carter vote?
: Did he think of the Montana mer
women and children who wear boot
: and shoes, and who produce none o
either?
No, he thought of the boot and sho
combine and he voted may"

AMERICAN SUGAR
DAMAGED BY SUIT

The following cf interest locally was
published in a Boston paper Of Octo-
Der 4:
The threatened government suit has
this week driven American Sugar
shares to the lowest price at which
they have sold since 1907 At the
most this suit would mean some re-
organization of financial structures. AS
matter of fact the officials of the
American Sugar Company have re-
peatedly told the government that If,
upon determination of the Tobacco
and Standard Oil cases, the govern
ment's position under the Sherman
law were found to be sustained, the
sugar company would reorganize in
accordance with the spirit of the court
ruling. The government has not been
willing to bide settlement of these two
cases, but appears determined to in
| crease the cases for decision to three
instead of leaving them at the original
two.
In it's organization American Sugar
would not appear to lay itself open to
the charge of being a combination in
lrestraint of trade on the same grounds
that Standard Oil and American To-
! bacco do. This is because American
Sugar is an operating company so far
as the refining business is concerned,
while Standard Oil and American To
bacco are gigantic holding companies
owning the stock of a host of subsi-
diary properties. Only in respect to
it's minority investment in beet sugar
companies is American Sugar hold
ing company. In the event of an Ill
timately adverse decision, the segrega-
ton of the beet sugar and miscella-
neous investments from the sugar re.
: filming industry could easily be arrang-
ed. 1t would simply mean two com
panies with an identical set of stock
! holders and some diminution in the
assets ofthe present corporation.
American Sugar Company business
for the nine months ended September
80 is understood to have shown an in
crease in gross of between per cent
and per cent. Net profits from SUI
gar refining were somewhat less than
year ago, due to the narrowed mar
gin between raw and refined. For
1 months this margin has persistentlV
ruled under cent per pound, so that
deducting refinery cost there has not
remained over Lucent per pound of
profit, and at times even that has been
missing.
Whatever shrinkage has occurred in
refining profits, however, has been
very largely atoned for by an increase
in dividends from beet sugar com

IF she is a good wife and mother,
then she is a good woman. If she is
net a good wife and mother, then she
is bad woman. 1t is a very simple
way Of figuring the problem, but it
has one draWbaCk-it is not true.
There is no more reason why wom-
an should be a born wife and mother
than there is that a man should be
horn husband and father.
Nevertheless. If ] ask you what a
man is, you will reply he is q mer-

YOU ask a man what a. woman is, he
VIII reply she is So-and-So's wife.
