Denounced Trade Commission Bill

0SsSONss~SO st0U0 ~OSJIttutSSuOU Dill
Washington, Feb. 1O.-Denouncing
the administration trade commission
bill as opening up the "loveliest graft
of a century," and as "surpassing Rus
sian inquisition," James E. Bennett
told the house committee that such a
law would drive small corporations
out of business. Representing a num-
Der of corporations, he questioned its
constitutionality.
"This bill as at present drawn" he
said, would give the vital secrets of
the small corporation to its big COM
petitor. 1t would show up the weak
points of the small concern and open
it up to the attacks of it's rival. This
bill would open up the loveliest graft
that you gentlemen ever saw"

REMARKABLE PUBLIC CAREER

The remarkable public career of the
late Senator Thomas H. Carter is the
subject of review by the Butte Miner,
a democratic newspaper which was
the originator of a movement to erect
a memorial to the distinguished Mon
tanan to whom that journal was po-
litically opposed. In referring to
Governor Stewards call for a meet
ing to form a Carter memorial asso-
citation, the Miner says:
OF all Montana's adopted sons,
there has been o who filled so
many prominent positions in national
life as Mr.. Carter did in his career.
He was a mar who never stopped
growing mentally.
The Miner we'll recalls when he
first became a successful candidate
for the lower house of congress, and
his speeches at that time were moth
ing like the masterpieces of his later
years. He was graduated from the
house to become commissioner of the
general land Office, a position which
gave him the opportunity to show his
understanding of, and friendship for
the west.
1t was after this, as chairman of
the republican national committee,
that he became prominent in the pub
lie eye, and from that time forth
there was no reader of the newspa-
pers who did not know of this dis
tinguished son of Montana.
He was elected to the United States
senate in 1895, and he soon made
himself felt there and was noted for
always pouring oil upon the troubled
waters of the high tide of debate, for
he had a great faculty of suggesting
tory means of settlement seemed like
ly.
After serving his first term in the
senate, he became the head of the
federal Louisiana fair commission,
and there he displayed not only great
executive ability, but a most happy
talent for ~after-dinner speaking.
After this he spent six years more
in the senate, and became one of the
recognized leaders of that body, and
also an adviser of presidents.
At the time of his death, he was
at the head of an important COM
mission to settle boundary and water
right controversies with Canada.
In discussing this memorial, the
Miner at all times has been careful
to eschew, as far as possible, any
political reference, but it cannot help
saying that it has always been its
belief that if he had lived to take III
active part in the organization of the
last republican convention at Chicago,
he would have found a way out for
his party through his wonderfully de
veloped faculty of originating com
promises.
1t is remarkable to think how Mr..
Carter climbed the ladder of life to
such great height without powerful
influences behind him, but simply rs
a result of his own exceptional attain
ments, coupled with untiring energy
and perseverance.
His name was always associated
with Montana by the people of the
United States. and he brought no lit
tie renown to this commonwealth.
