Leighton of stands as a monument to the se - Boulder announced himself a can. didato for the position of state senator,' the most important' office to be filled at the coming election. he somewhnt flamboyantly called attention to the fact that he had previously served Jefferson county in a legislative capacity. The statement .was true. He was a member of the lower house during the tenth session. But the doctor hap not of recent date told his con- ' then). Some of us, well remember at ' the close of the emir\ to which , the doctor added eclat by his be- nign presence. the good citizens of Boulder tendered aleception to him upon his return to the comity seat. While the other member, of the legislature were invited, Dr. Leighton was really the supposed hero, and as such got into the limelight and stayed there the whole blessed evening. The tune of his political song on that oc- casion was that he was the great - eat parliamentarian of the age, for low and behold, he had succeeded in getting through the unfeeling and inhuman legislature arr appro- priation for it hospital building at the mute school for the deaf, dumb, blind and feeble minded at Boulder. All of which was told with such earnest unction that no person doubted the authenticity of the assertions and being firmly con vinced those present yelled them- selves hoarse for \Little Doc.\ But how rude the a - wakening! Plans and specifisettione were drawn, and our remembrance is that the contract was let for the building. Everything to this point in the procedureliad,slipped mer- rily by and it looked as if at last .he great state of Montana and Dr. Leighton were going to do the right thing by the unfortunate little tots who fell ill away from mother end home. Needing money the board of control made a requisi- tion upon the state treasurer fur the appropriation. Little Doe had been jobbed. There was no such appropriation ever made by the tenth' assembly, notwithstand- ing that, the gentleman from Jef- ferson, as the speaker would say. had carefully watched the bill, and had acted as special messenger to the governor, who signed the paper the doctor brought to him The above is nearly p complete history of the legislative services performed by the present cende date for senatorial honors front Jefferson county. We say nearly complete. Add to it the fact that he voted for Lee Mantle for U. S. senator, and you will have the complete' record of one who man- aged to be wrong all the time.

The question of bonds or %amino.; was not so very serious, but it was found as usual, when Senator Car- ter's bill was examined, it contain- ed R \joker\ tattling the cedilla' tion service over to the United States army. Senator Dixon denounces this and said upon the floor of the senate that in his opinion it would- be better to defeat the 1411 than ac cept the authorizntiog for these warrants, coupled with a propo- sition to turn the reclamation Fier - over to army officers, who know little or nothing about farm ing. Still the Missoula convention and the prems of the !HMO would have us believe that this measure was one over which Senator Car- ter has n right to feel proud.
