SAAN4NOl
The following editorial from the
Western News, a strong Democratic
paper published at Libby, will give
our readers the real truth as to where
the America-First Democrats of Mon
tana stand in the coming guberna-
torial election:
"The Western News is a democratic
newspaper edited and controlled by
democrats. But as we have heretofore
asserted, ours is not the kind of party
politics that will follow the party
blindly, and with no independent
thought as to its destination.
despite the fact that some of Mon
tana's very able democratic leaders
have swallowed B. X. Wheeler and his
comic-opera array of non-partisan
democratic nominees, The Western
News has not swallowed them, and at
this writing has no intention of doing
so. All of Mr.. Wheeler's prostesta-
tions to the contrary, we firmly be-
lieve hat if elected governor of Mon
tana Mr.. Wheeler will assume the
powers of that office in a hopeless con-
dition of indebtedness to the radical
elements controlling the non-partisan
league and the even more radical ele-
ments controlling the Butte labor lea
que, and that it will be impossible for
governor" Wheeler to escape pay
ment. The coin in which he will meet
these obligations will be special ia
vors of the socialistic classes at the
expense of the majority of Montana's
steady, self respecting, all-American
populace.
We don't want a governor for only
a part of Montana's people. We want
one whose hands and conscience will be
free-one whose purpose and condi-
ton unite in making possible a fair
dea to all.
After reading the speech of Joseph
M. Dixon, which is printed in this pub
LEGATION today the editor of The Wes-
tern News believes Mr.. Dixon's the
kind of man Montana needs, and
should have, in the governors office
at Helena.
Joe Dixon condemns and defies the
seekers otter special privilege both
in the socialistic organizations and
the capitalistic corporations. He in
tends dragging the Butte corpora
lions away from their strangle hold
o. politics of this state. And he in
tends preventing Townley and Dunn
from taking their pace.
A governor for all all the people!
It's an inspiring notion. Dixon says
that's the kind of governor he will be,
and we believe if he is elected he will
make good on the promise. Anyhow
regardless Of his politics, we are will
ing to see him given the opportunity"
The Glasgow courier. [volume] (Glasgow, Mont.) 1913-current, 1920-10-01
is WHEELER A DEMOCRAT?


If B. K. Wheeler typifies the de-
mocracy of Montana then the demo-
cracy of Montana is identical with the
nonpartisan eague in principle and in
tends to put the nonpartisan program
into effect if it gains control by virtue
of the coming election.
The proofs of this assertio are am
pie.
Under the name of Burton K. Wheel
err on the ballots issued at the primary
election there appeared this declara-
ton:
"For the Nonpartisan and La
Dor League programs, and elm
i~nation Of corrupt politics."
To the editor of the Great Falls Call
an independent democratic paper re-
Gently come into being Mr.. Wheeler
said, according to the Call:
IF am elected governor of
Montana, which l will be l shall
put the Nonpartisan program in
to effect from top to bottom and
that goes"
Thus Mr.. Wheeler gave positive
assurance thar his declaration of
principles as printed on the ballot
was not put there unauthorized or
by an enemy, that it was put there
Intentionally and advisedly by him
self and that his determination is
unchanged.
Further. In his address at Wibaux
hall in Miles City recently Mr.. Wheel
er, who sat on the same platform with
Mr.. Townley at Roundup, appeared on
the same platform as Mr.. Taylor, who
first made an address lauding the
state bank and other Townley innova-
tions in North Dakota, and Wheeler
followed with a long dissertation in
which the various Townley schemes
were delineated and commended to the
people of this community.
That should be sufficient evidence
to convince anyone that Wheeler is to
all intents and purposes a N~onparti-
san. 1t matters not under what politi-
cal nomenclature he ranks himself, if
he is elected governor he intends to
put the Nonpartisan program in effect
in Montana "from top to bottom" as
far as he may be able.-Miles City
