A WORD WITH YOUNG MEN. In a recent speech lnator Fairbanks of Indiana addressed himiself particularly to the young men of the country who are just entering the political arena in that they are casting their first ballot. Not many years will pass until these same young men will be those who will Ie active in affairs and guiding the affairs of the nation. The fact was emphasized that the most sacred privilege of American citizenship is the elective franchise which is the heritage secured to all of the sons of the republic through the blood and sacrifice of our fathers. Not only is this elective franchise a privilege, but it should be regarded in the light of duty that demands to be intelli gently discharged for the best interests of the country. Young men who are about to step into the active participation of governmental politics owe it to their country to make a thorough and exhaustive study of the history of political parties that have played such prominent parts in the national affairs of our country. It will not serve the coun try to any great extent than a young man becomes a partisan because his father belonged to that organisation. Such a ol tower will not have the intelligent and convincing force of the man who joins his patty because he is convinced that it is right anA just. That party will gain most strength from the young men who have begun by consid ering governmental doctrines from a neu tral standpoint and investigated them by means of the scientific method. Such converts will come into the ranks of the party with which they cast their lot, with a fllness of conviction that will radiate a force and influence that must contribute to their party's potentiality. Considered dispassionately in this light we believe that it will be found by most young men that the republican party has tlhotght well and acted wisely in the past. It has mintaintained an unswerving position groiunded on sound politicis which have always looked ahead to future growth and national prosperity. Questions may have two sides, but only one of them can be right. As opposed to each other the democratic and republican parties are diametrically at variance. When the young man is investigating the history of these parties, let him not lose sight of this fact. lIe it remembered that since the accession of the republican party to power the democrats have never failed to be on the wrong side of the question. A cat neve fails to light on its feet, but the demo cratic party always drops wrong side up. Ilere is a vital point for the young men to keep in mindl. Since the republican party has always kept on the right track in the forty years of its exihtcnce, thlan which there is no grander period in the history of any nation, it is reasonable to believe that it will continue so. The republican party has factd mainy crucial periods and never been c,,lipelled to retreat. Like a valiant gen eral the republican party is alwsays moving forwarI. It knows no facing to the t:ar. Its ipolicies aim at progress anld secure prosperity. They safeguard the natiol 's ctlfare by mllealns of coilservative sltates Young i nii of Monltana as well as every other state in the uniom should join the fora'. of the reptubhlicant party and do th.ir )-ait in carrying forward its great wo k. Iteitry \t.t0 c. an, failure mark the cour.c of ,Imuocracy, while the path beaten by the onward march of republicaninsm is itn li cartel by unpalralleled achievement.i in the hadlanccememt and well- being of the Amcri C'tm l l, lc. FACTS FOR VOTERS. I('preset tative Otjen of Wisconsin has pile.cinted some facts that cannot fail to go straight home to every thinking voter. In a recent address to his constituents, he said that the productive energies of the people of the lUnited States for 1901 amounted to $S-o,66o,ooo,ooo. Of this great sum. $1,460,000,o00 found its way into Ioreign markets, while the remainder, $19, d n,oo00,0oo, was consutnLed in our honle markets. In ýi:her words, for every dollar of pro unctive energy of our people that went abroadl, more than $14 was expended here :' lhomne. Consequently good business sense would dictate a policy which will not in anyway imlperil the $14 market, and at the samne tmne it should also seek to extend the $I market by every known means, short of sace ificing our greater home market. Level healled Americans-business mnen and workingmen as well-are not likely to fall in with the tarilff tinkering shouter, when they grasp the true significance of the situation in this light. A little timte spent in sober reflection oil such striking facts as these must convince all intelligent voters that a protective tariff is essential to a continuation of our present condition f prosperity and well being. The lesson If experientce and its logical condition, de ;and that republican principles should be inlhicated at the polls for the preserva :in of peace and plenty, progress and i, sperity. In furtherance of this desirable end, the citizens of Montana should roll up a handsome republican majority next month. C. J. Stevenson, republican candidate for the importan( t office of justice of the peace, is worthy of the office to which lie aspires. lie is the personal candidate of no one and stands for honesty and integrity. HIe has lived in Silver Bow county for nearly twenty years, and during that period has been found to bIe an uplright, honorable t citizen. lie is a stationary engineer and 5 well fitted both by expe.lence and educa tion for the place. For county treasurer it is important that a man wvlho is responsible and able to per form the duties should be secured. The people demand that their strong box be kept clean and safe. The republicans pre sent the man for the place in the person of J. V. Long. lie has lived in Butte for more than twenty-five years, and is much respected and hlonored. lie is a man of good ability and in every way competent. A Profound Secret. [Fliegende Blaetter.] "I suppose your engagement to the bar oness is still a secret?" "Yes; only my most intimate creditors r know it," PEOPLE WE MEET. THOMAS M'TAGUE. C OIONEI. ''IIOMAS McTAGUE, th well-known and popular prison cot tractor of Deer Lodge, is in the city today shaking hands with his many friends. Asked as to political matters in Powell county, Mr. McTague was non-committal as to the chances of the respective tickets. "I am a democrat," said the genial colo nel, "and, of course, I am for the demo cratic local ticket, but I realize the fact that Powell county is close and that the republicans have put up a very strong ticket. For instance there are few more popular men in the state than Conrad Kohbr, candidate for the state senate, and the better he is known the more popular he is. The democrats have also a strong man for the same place, Mr. Ed Scharni kow, and the vote between these two will show the relative strength of the demo cratic and republican parties. "No," said he in reply to a question, "we are not afflicted with any other party-the repnldicais and democrats will fight it Mr. Mc'Tlague is conservative in politi cal affairs and as Powell county is a ttew county it is yet to be determined which party has the majority. STATE BOARD OF M.EN WHO AUDIT OUR BILLS Examiners Meet in Helena and Put Out a Lot of the Money They Have Been Raking Up in Taxes. hil {'Il \ n. 10 INiiS R M t NI.I N.] Helena, ( ict. zi.--'The state board of examinei.rs met yesterday and allowed a large number of bills. The accounts of the con:tractors of the prison and insane Asy lt, were large on account of the fact that five'weeks had elapsed since the date of the first meeting of the examiners. A bill of l)r. Peter F1. Mussigbrod for $i1,664.00 was ordered paid. The bill of Conley & McTague, state prison contract ors, was allowed, but not ordered pauId, owing to the fact that it cannot be met until the fund from wshich it is to.be dra:wn has been replenished. The fund has bcen d' pleted during the past few months, and ii is thought that thw contractors will snot be able to get their money for at least three months. A question has arisen as to vwhat claim for interest the firm can make on the back bills. It is believed that tais problem will have to be met by the incom ing legislature. THEY THINK MILLER IS LEADING THE RUSTLERS Man Arrested in Livingston Is Said to Be Responsible for Cattle Stealing Done. [sPECAI.L TO INTER MtOUNTAIN.] Livingston, Oct. 2i.-L.ew Miller, wllo is believed to be the ringleader of a gang of cattle thieves operating in the upper Yellowstone valley, has been arrested by Sheriff Beley on a charge of cattle steal ing. Miller was known to be in hiding in the timber around Rail creek, and a warrant for his arrest on a charge of misdemeanor was issued, the penalty being only $5o. The ruse worked well, for Miller hearing of the charge and the light penalty, camne in and gave himself up. When the case came up for hearing 'the charge was changed from that of this demeanor to one of grand larceny, hnd Miller was up against it. He was bound over to the district court and his bond fixed at $S,ooo. OIR NEW CRUISERS ARE NOT GOING TO BE FAST Naval Board Thinks Speed Had Best Be Sacrificed to Armament in Ships to Be Built, lli' ASSOCIATED PRlies.] Washington, Oct. 2r.-The naval board of construction has finally decided upon the features of the armored cruisers au thorized by the last congress. Speed has been sacrificed in a measure to power. Chief Melville's proposition to have the ship a5.0oo horse power and speed of 23 knots at a minimum was rejected and the horse power will stand at 23,ooo, which he estimates will actually bring the speed down to about ar1/ knots. The new boats therefore will be three and one-half slower than the famous En glish armored cruisers of the Drake class. To offset this lack of speed, the Tennessee class will have a much more powerful bat tery, namely four so-inch guns in two turrets, against two o-inch guns in the main batteries of the British ships. The Tennessee class also will have more pro tection. BRITISH SEND WARSHIPS Mean to Find Out Why the Chinese Do Not Avenge Death of Missionaries. [IBY ASSOCIATED PRESS.] - Shanghai, Oct. a2.-Four British Pgi boats have been ordered from here to the Yangtse Kiang, to IIankow, because of f the failure of the Chinese authorities to deal with the murderer of Bruce and L.ewis, the English missionaries who were killed. It is said that the Chinese authorities are alarmed at Great Britain's step anid that Prince Ching, president of the forein office, will confer in the matter with irl s Ernest Satow, the British minister to. China. WHAT HAPPENED TWENTY ONE YEARS AGO TODAY? Why Just Read These Extracts From the Files of the Inter Mountain of That Date and Be Made Wise.

"Under the Red Robe," in which James Ncill and the splendid Neill company will appear in this city next Sunday evening at the Broadway, is a remarkable costume play, adapted by Edward E. Rose front the novel by the same name. The story is one of death, hazardous intrigue, love exposure and matrimony. In the palmy days and olden, when Richelieu held sway in the French.empire, he forbade dueling, but Gil de lBerault, a gambler and noted swordsman, could not follow the edict, but quarreled while at cards with one Sir Thomas Brunt, who falls a wounded victim of the sword of Gil de Berault, better known as the "Black Death." lie is imprisoned, but at one time having saved the life of Riche lieu, the cardinal does not condemn the swashbuckler to death, but leniently sends him to a neighboring province on a most dangerous mission to obtain jewels and a desired prisoner.

MANTLE ADDRESSES BIG CROWD IN DILLON (Continued from Page One.) the republicans is to lift up the fair name of JMontana from the rut of degradation and place it on the pinnacle of prosperity." Here he paid a fine tribute to the gentle men who are on the state ticket nomi nated by the republicans. No Demoo.ates Left. The speaker grew eloquent when he said that he did not believe there was a true democratic party in the state of Mon tana. There was, however, a political camp, divided into warring factions, which 'have seized the political machinery of Montana and are using it to promote the selfish aims of millionaire capitalists or corporations. "The democratic party has descended to a party without an issue and no party like that can look for the support of honest people. It is only a matter of time until the bung-hole in the .barrel is closed and the source of inspiration will be dry, for .even the fortunes of multi-millionaires have sometimes an end, and especially when the aim for which the Montana millionaires have been striving for has been gained. "The republican party will insure a pure judiciary, a pure legislature, a pure ad ministration of public affairs and will once more make the name of'Montana respect at home and abroad." As to Joe Dixon. The speaker said he knew Joe Dixon personally and that he is an able man, there is no question. He said Montana needed a man in- congress who would be in accord with th- administration and one that could catch the speaker's eye and not be a nonenity in the halls of con gress of whom nobody ever heard, or one who would have to be introduced j the doorkeeper, as it was a year or so ago. "Send Joe Dixon to \Vashington, and not only every man in the house will know him, but he will become known all over the land." The speaker had not seen Edwards' name more than once or twice during the two years just past, and he doubted if there were 5o people in the house who knew the name of the repr . sentative from Montana. Mr. Mantle made an earnest and win ning appeal for Judge Holloway, paid a high character to his ability as a jur ist and a man and refuted the silly stories mouthed by the democratic press in their denunciation of his indorsement by other parties and said the democrats should he the last to raise a cry of this kind, for they owed their place in'Montana politics today to the various fusions which wrested the state government from the republicans six years ago. IIe said the populists and labor parties showed the only grain of sense they had ever shown in their ca reers when they indorsed Judge Holloway. In enumerating the different brands of democracy in Montana, he said there were so many of them that he would have to read them. Hie could not remember them and this is the list that he read, and its reading caused great amusement in the audience: "lDaly democrats, Clark democrats, Heinze democrats, independent democrats, Amalgamated democrats. Joe Toole democrats, social democrats, trust democrats, anti-trust democrats, democrats for revenue only and the real simon-pure, unwashed and unterrified democrats," He said that a picture of interest is presented to the people of Montana, that of Clark and his ancient enemy, John Toole, sitting on a barrel smoking the pipe of peace together. Behind them stands Ileinee with a stick of dynamite in one hand and a lighted match in the other and the earnest prayer of the re publican party i* that he would light the fuse before the 4th of November. He Goes After Evans. The speech which Judge Evans made in Dillon some short time ago came in for a raking over the coals and one that will be remembered by the Dillon audi ence which heard it for a considerable time. The part which Mr. Mantle went after was the assertion that the flag should be pulled down from the Philippines and that it would have been better for the country had Dewey, after destroying the Spanish fleet, turned his fleet towards San Francisco and let the Filipinos have their island in peace. The speaker showed that if the flag was pulled down it would be a rebuke to the body of young men who, when the alarm of war was abroad in tile land and the appeal for volunteers was made, offered their services here in Montana t: the government-the first in all the land to arm and equip and say "we are ready to fight for that flag." If Dewey had sailed away, it would have violated that law of nations which says that a victor who destroys a government must maintain another government and protect the non combatants. They Will Grow Wiser. He made the prediction that ten years from now a man could not be found who would or will admit that he wanted the flag torn from the Philippine islands or who will say he was ever opposed to expansion. This has been the history of every expansion of our nation and no one who has ever come under the folds of that starry banner has ever a desire to be taken from beneath its pro tection. It floats over the Philippines as a beacon light of humanity and will never be torn down. The lamented President William Mc Kinley came in for an eulogy and of him it was said that he changed the map of the world and he added a new era to his country. The mention of President Roose velt's name set the audience wild and the assertion that no power this side the grave could keep Theodore Roosevelt from be ing our next president, elicited applause which fairly shook the building. Other national issues he touched upon but lightly, saying that the tariff was a settled issue. The county republican ticket came in for a deservedly favorable men tion. After the speaking, an informal recep tion was held in the headquarters of the Beaverhead club and at midnight the for mer. senator returned to his home in Butte. The Heinze Hippodrome. [Helena Independent.] Mr. Heinze took in several Easters Montana towns yesterday, but he will be unable to take in the people of Montana. Greatest Union Labor Party.
