HERE is WHAT HURTS

The Stewart administration has
defeated itself All that is required
of the republicans to win sweep
the people. The record of democ-
that is indefensible.
First comes extravaganza and
waste of public funds. This is shown
by the number of new offices Great
ed and which give but little or no
service-numerous enough, accord
ing to high democratic authority, "to
fill to overflowing forty vacant
rooms atthe capitol" Then there is
the horde of deputy game Wardens,
deputy sealers and weighers, deputy
examiners and, Lord knows whom
else. While the state educational in
stitutions are overcroWded and lack
the necessary facilities and funds,
the business of increasing the num-
ber of political hacks, as part and
parcel of the Tammany machine,
goes bravely on. Millions for polit-
ical spoils, but not one cent of in
crease for the necessary requirement
of the consolidated university. The
The governor and the board of eX-
aniners veto necessary expenses for
education, but never fail to approve
waste OF funds on political spoils-
men.
Second is the failure of this ad-
ministration to add to decrease of
state trust funds and decrease taxes
by loanine said idle funds to farm
ers and ranchers on first mortgage
security, the highest form of security
The present administra ton has been
intensely hostile to such wise and
safe investment of trust funds. Why
1t is ur to them to explain and de-
fend their vicious conduct in this be-
half. Why do Stewart and his CO.
officials of state fight so strenuously
the increase of income to trust funds
of state institutions, and why are
they so vindicatively hostile to farm
ers and ranchers obtaining money at
reasonable and just interest rates by
borrowing these idle funds? This
conduct alone is sufficient to defeat
the entire democratic ticket.
Third is the gross misconduct of
democratic state officials. They have
commercialized the state Offices
They have made merchandise of
them. They have used them as a
coin of advantage for their own pri-
vate gain.
There is the public bonding and
surety monopoly for private gain.
The petty and conteemptible auto tin
tag graft, yet amounting to an aggre-
gate of several thousand dollars
year There In the malodoraus and
disreputable Northwestern trustee
Company Of which it has been pun
lshingly said by the grand jury and
the judge of the Federal court, that
men in 'high on cial sstation,' as
prevalent practice" "sold the use
of their names for shares of stock"
Finally the utter failure of this ad-
ministration to correct and punish
these abuses and enforce the law.
This is the record the Stewart ad-
ministraton is trying to hide and es-
cape from. 1t constitutes damning
record of condemnatory facts. There
is more of it, but this is enough with
no additions.
NO wonder they wish to muddle
and obscure the issues. 1t is certain
ly record of disgrace and shame.
The Republicans need not misrep-
resent, exaggerate or denounce. A
plain recital of the record suffices.

Amenable, Docile, Plastic
and Very Tractable

The present Stewart democratic
administration has always been am
enable, docile, plastic, tractable and
compliant to the demands and re-
1uremonts OF big business and OF
invisible government" in Montana.
When has it ever opposed such de-
mands When has it ever had a CON
f1ict with such requirements? When
have big business and invisible gov
ernment ever had cause to complain
OF, or oppose the Stewart admins
tration? 1t was satisfactory to then.
when chosen in the election of four
years ago, it has been satisfactory
ever since, it is satisfactory now.
They seek and want no change They
desire above all things four years
more OF the Stewart administration
When the interests OF big busi-
ness come in conflict with the inter-
ests OF the people under the admin
istration, big business has always
had it's way and the rights O fthe
people were baseely betrayed and
surrendered. Think, if you can, of a
s1ngl. exception to this course of
conduct.
When the farmers of Montana
clamorcd for a farm loan mortgage
law, SO they could obtain loans OF
idle state funds at reasonable inter
est rates, and thus escape the clutch
es or the money loan sharks, biz
business opposed such salntary re-
lief and Stewart and Kelly and Poin-
dexter and Rae said ''no" to the far
mers and fawingly obeyed the behes.
of big business.
1t was the same with transporta-
ton abuses, grain inspection and de-
mands for equal and just taxation.
lhere have been no exceptions. The
democratic administration has al
ways been the plant servant and
tool OF big business. And why?
Because, "The OK knoweth it's
owner, and the ass his masters crib
There now come from authentic
sources report that at least one of
the great railway transportation
lines in Montana is engaged in an ac-
tive campaign to elect Stewart gov
ernor and to defeat Frank ]. Ed
wards for that office. Other huge
corporations are reported to be
about to follow the same course.
This pernicious intermiddling of
big business with local government is
both shortsighted and lamentable.
1t is to be sincerely regretted, but
not feared. Such intermeddling with
he peoples business inevitably
brings just and condign punishment
upon the offenders. If the voters
learn that big business and invisible
government. for their own selfish
purposes, are fighting Edwards and
working and boosting for Stewart,
the victory for Edwards will be a
certainty.
NO one is making war upon this
great transportation line, nor is any
war threatened, Or intended. All
1hat Edwards as governor will re-
qulre of big business is that it pays
air and deals justly with the people
1'hat he will uphold the Just rights
OF the people al all times is a GER
ta1nty, and even big business must
acknowledge such a position to be
right
But Edwards will never be the
TOOL OF big business. He will not
take orders from it. If tool in the
governorship is what it asks and re-
qulres, Edwards will disappoint it.
But the wrath of the people ex-
tends far. Their retort is drastic
punishment. Why needlessly incur
that wrath? Why wantonlv start
you are certain to regret?

sides being a gallant captain OF
the Macon Volunteers, he had
been Mayor Of Macon, and was
universally beloved. His remains
were brought back under an es-
cort of honor, and they now rest
in Rose Hill.
The regiment remained on
guard duty at Monterey, guard
ing trains and performing any
duty assigned to it. Later it was
sent to Iampico and Vera Cruz.
Eager as were these soldiers to
fight, enlisting for that purpose,
they were never given an oppor-
tunity to engage in battle. After
the battle of Cerro Gordo, and
while on their march to the City
OF Mexico, their term of service
expired and they were dismissed.
Same Loyalty Now
1t is from Buffers history OF
Macon that L get the above facts.
SO it appears that the Volun-
teers and Rifles may yet go to
Mexico. The members of these
gallant companies are just as 10y
al to the flag that floated at the
Alamo, in Palo Alto, or Chepul-
tepec seventy years ago as were
the young men of 1916. They are
soldiers and they know their duty.
But what a difference in the
times There we're but few rail
roads and army training in those
days amounted to nothing more
than the manual OF arms and
stout legs for marching And the
difference in the arms And in the
equipment!
Many Improvements in arms,
munitions and methods of warfare
have been made in the past seven
ty years.

AMERICA AND MEXICO
FIGHTING 70 YEARS
AGO THIS MONTH

Mayor Bridges Smith, of Ma
con, writing in the Telegraph,
gives some interesting history of
the Mexican war Of seventy years
ago, in which a volunteer COM
pany OF that place served for a
short time. He writes:
Seventy years this month, the
war department at Washington
called on Georgia for her quota
OF troops to enlist in the Ameri-
can army on the Mexican border.
This was in 1916, and war with
Mexico was brought on by the
anneXatlonof Texas. AS soon as
the news was received in Macon
the Macon Volunteers, under
Capt. Isaac Holmes, offered their
services for six months and at
once began making preparations
to. leave. The Floyd Rifles were
as quick to respond to the call,
! but in the midst of their prepare
tons it was discovered that the
war department would not receive
troops for less than a years SER
vice uness the war closed prior
to the expiration of that TING.
/ The Volunteers and Rifles were
made up OF the best young men in
Macon, and the news of their 60
ing to Mexico was received with
many heartaches and tears from
their families. In those days
Mexico was far distant land,
by reason of inadequate means
of transportation and the Mexi-
can bore as unpleasant a name for
Itreachery as now.
Raises Volunteer Company
Then, when it was learned that
these companies would not go,
the young soldiers were disap-
pointed, Capt. Holmes, in his
eagerness to respond to his coun-
try's call, he being a thorough
soldier, decided to raise COM
pany among tile young men who
were not connected with the mil
ltaEy, but were ambitious to serve
in the army. This independent
company was named the Macon
Gtards, and Capt Holmes unani-
mously given command.
One hundred men enlisted in
three days. The ladies of the
city preseHted the company with
a flag, which was feelingly receiV-
ed. Under escort of the Volui-
teers and Floyd Rifles, the new
company marched to the Bhb
campground, at the foot of Rlae
street, where a bountiful supper
had been prepared. There the
company camped that night.
After the organization of the
regiment, it marched from Colum-
bus to Chehaw, Ala, where they
were transported by rail to Mont
gomery, thence by steamer down
the Alabama river to Mobile. AS
they approached that city the
citizens were celebrating the
Fourth of July, and the arrival Of
the boats bearing the soldiers ad-
ded an unusual feature, that Of
celebrating the Fourth on the riv-
er.
The regiment remained in Mo
bile ten days and then embarked
on the steamer Joseph Day fer
Brazos Island, near the n1outk of
the Rio GrdAde. On this Island,
the regiment encamped about two
weeks, and then marched to canp
Belknap, up the river. Here hey

Fuel Boxes for Collins

There was much sickness among
the troops while encamped at
Camargo, which was very un-
healthy place, an many soldiers
died. A new supply of guns were
received here, and the boxes in
which they had been shipped were
used as collins for the dead. The
regiment marched to Monterey,
guarding money train carrying
100000. Writing from Monte
rey, under date of October II,
1916, Maj. Charles ]. Williams
said:
THE ranks of our regiment
have been terribly thinned. We
marched across the Chattahoo-
chez river with 910 men and off,
GERS, and today the regiment, all
told, barely numbers 600. Though
we have discharged many from
sickness and disability, still we
have deposited nearly seventy be-
meath the chaparral, all in the
short space OF four months. We
have now arrived at a healthy
place, and health blooms in every
cheek, though 1880 soldiers, from
every part of the United States,
are here, -encamped within the
short space of two miles"
This was seventy years ago, be-
fore the laws of sanitation were in
vogue in the army.
