Montana Congressional Representa-.
| tives
In contemplating the magnificent
services which the Democratic nation
al administration has rendered to the
people, it is with distinct pride that
we call the attention of Montana DEM
ocrats to the fact that through their
representatives in congress they have
contributed largely to the success
which has crowned the efforts Of
President Wilson. In Senators Henry
L. Myers and Thomas j. Walsh, and
in Representatives Tom Stout and
John M. Evans, the people of Montana
have given to the nation congress-
ional delegation which is of great
service to the country at large and a
source 6f qualification to the people
Of this state. In appreciation of the
service they have rendered. not only
to their constituents in the state of
Montana, but likewise to the president
In the larger affairs Of the nation, the
Democratic party has renominated
Congressmen Stout and Evans. and we
submit to all good citizens who believe
in upholding the hands of the presi-
dent in this hour of trial that. no more
effective aid can be rendered the
great man now in the White House
than by again giving him for the
house of representatives such men as
Stout and Evans, who are ready and
anxious and willing to follow his In
spired leaderships
Governor etewart Makes Good
\ We unQualIhedly endorse and ap-
prove the splendid, state administra-
tion Of Governor Samuel v. Stewart.
At time when Montana is growing,
by leaps and bounds and when new
problems daily demand the unceasing
attention of an alert executive, Gov
ernor Stewart has amply demonstrat-
ed his fitness for the position to which
he has been entrusted. He has striv-
en- earnestly and successfully for pro-
gress. He has insisted upon the re-
demptiol of every pledge made to the
people. He has, in every way possible
safeguarded the interests Of this state.
He has exercised . careful watch over
public funds, has insisted upon rigid
economy in public affairs, and BY his
care and intimate attention to details
has made his administration one
worthy of support and confidence.
We particularly endorse the firm
action of the governor In insisting that
law and order be maintained In the
city Of Butte, and regard with pride
the promptness with which he met
q situation which. had it been allowed
to grow. would have brought upon the
fair name of Montana everlasting
shame and disgrace. We congratu-
late the national guard Of Montana for
its quick response to the governors
call and for the efficient manner IN
which it performed the delicate task
assigned 10 it-restoring order IN the
states metropolis and giving TO lie
and property every protection without
the spillfng OF q drop Ct blood.
Railroad Commissioners
We commend the uniform courtesy
and efflciency which has character
lied the conduct Of the DemocFauc
state oaicials now IN the CAPITOL ana
submit that ID the history Ct the STATE
public affairs have never been in aoier
hands, and we would urge that = Dem
ocratic colleague with J. =. HAL oa
the board Of railway commissioners
through the election Of ]. =. Mceor
mick. would enable CARRYING out q
the reforms which Mr.. Hall has en-
deavored to inaugurate.
