A Montana newspaper column denounces alleged bribery claims by Republican lawmakers to favor W A Clark for senator. It demands named criminal prosecutions and condemns journalism that delays proof, urging accountability from the Standard and state leaders.
The piece accuses the Standard of trying to derail justice while urging immediate criminal proceedings against Republican legislators tied to bribery charges. It singles out Geiger for a $1100 payoff regarding House Will 132, calls for prosecutions if evidence supports the claims, and argues Democrats bore political responsibility for the Clark Conrad vote. It warns the Miner against aligning with Campbell and predicts party maneuvering ahead of nominating conventions.
The Butte Miner rejects any claim it announced support for Campbell in the congressional race. It states no recollection of such an announcement and says no other construction exists. The response follows a challenge from the Anaconda Standard and suggests disbelief of the alleged position.
The Inter Mountain urged Admiral Dewey to promptly deny his 1899 remark describing a democrat as a damned traitor in war and a damned foal in peace. The piece notes his recent denial and suggests a blanket denial to cover past and future statements, arguing it would aid his presidential prospects.
The Democratic state committee will meet on May first in the McDermott hotel not in the former Judge Bickford room but in larger parlors. The object is to fix a date, likely mid June, for the state convention to select delegates to Kansas City. Other political matters may be discussed as state politics gain attention.
