A Dog in War.


The publication of the statement that
the Germans are training dogs for war
recalls the fact that soldier Of Col
Bowen's regiment, in the Confederate
army. had large dog, which inyaria-
bly, accompanied him on any duty
whatever aud was as good as a coui-
panion. The dog was as ardent u
rebel as his master and somehow or
other seemed to have a preternaturally
quick nose for bue-coat. When the
man was on picket duty his dog was
always nosing about some distance in
the front, and if there were any Fed
erals within half a mile he would find
them ont and bark. He never vent
ured 10 attack them. but. like a cav
alryman. took to the rear when an en-
gagement was in progress; but after
the battle was over he would reappear.
The man WIS finally killed while on
the picket line by going TO a spring
after water in spite Of the warnings OF
the dog, and the men of the regiment
tried to keep the animal. but he went
away. lie had no esprit du corps. His
devotion was purely personal 20 his
master. ST L0Eis Gi0bc- Democrat.

Senator PETER declared in recent
speech in New York that the far mers
demanded cheap money, since which
time the proposition has met with a
storm OF ridicule and abuse from the
partisan press. The animus of this at
tack should not be misunderstood or its
effects underestimated. Ridiculeis often
more potent than argument and is usu-
ally resorted to when argument fails.
The true meaning OF the term cheap
money has been purpOsely misapplied
in order to deceive and confuse. SEN
ator PETER did not allude 10, neither
does the alliance demand cheap
money" in the sense in which it might
be applied to the politicians or editors
who are seeking 10 force this miscon-
ception upon the people. Far from it:
the demand is for the best kind OF money
instead OF the poorest, as is alleged.
The alliance asks for the only money
possible that has basis beyond doubt
as to its complete responsibility and suf-
iciency. There is a wide difference be-
tween cheap money and inferior money.
The first is money for the peoples use
without the present extOrtionate cost,
while the second is deprecated, unsta-
bic and worthless. 1t is not a cheap
quality In money that is demanded. but
money that will not require so much Of
the product of labor TO obtain. The al
lance demands an increase in the
amount Of good money in circulation in
order to bring about this result, well
knowing that an increase of moor worfit-
less currency will have an opposite ef-
feet Those who are crying ou. ''cheap
money know full well the true situa-
ton. but their purposes are better served
by misrepresenting the facts and there
by misleading and befogging the peo-
pie.-National Economist.

AN ADDRESS TO VOTERS.

issued by the National Executive Com
mitteo OF the Peoples Party.
The address OF the national executive
committee Of the peoples party has
been sent out from Milwaukee by sec.
eotary Schilllng. 1t starts out with the
statement that the times which try
mems souls are here once more. The
descendants of British tories and other
European and American capitalists
have Nbound the country in chains
The declaration of independence from
British arrogance needs to be supple
mented by declaration of independ-
ence from the power Of concentrated
wealth. the political independence
gained by the revolutionists is but a
sham unless our country con secure in
dustrial independence.
The address enlargeston the subtle
power of money TO oppress the poor and
then declares the railroads of the coun.
sry are capitalized at 5000, 600, 600, and
the great majority of their stock is
held by the people in England and other
foreign countries who have 40 more in
terest in the United States than the
vampire has in its victim.
Atareasonable estimate foreigners in
vested 10000, 600, 900 in our country.
What value have they given us in re-
turn? They did not give us gold or
silver because these metals have been
carried abroad by the ship load and are
auined here, not in Europe. To get
ahis valuable property these foreigners
have merely loaned us their credit in
bank checks. drafts and notes, and
they are paying these with the divi-
dends they draw from our people.
Comparing the foreign capital invest
led here with the total wealth of the
country the address says that reckoned
iat compound interest the former will
reach the amount represented By the
Ratter in less then twelve years. The
statement is made that the Western
Union Telegraph Co. is capitalized at
300, 600 600 and makes per cent, but
that its plant could be duplicated with
ISl5, 600 600, showing that the actual
rate of interest is 30 per cent, and that
the same applies TO many other corpor-
aiions.
The policy of the government in pay
lng high premiums for money TO take
up bonds not due, so as to dispose OF the
accumulation Of the treasury, is de.
nounc9d, and reference is made to the
inability OF the treasury department to
redeem $50, 000 900 of A per cents about
due.
The address states that the treasury
contains $4,000, 000, but that the bank
ers who control the department fear
the release of $50, 600, 900 would break
down the money market and ease the
grip that unproductiye capital has upon
the country.
''If the billions OF dollars of bank and
corporation paper, mortgages and
other evidences Of debt issued by indi-
viduals are good enough for the extor-
TONERS and the usurers, paper notes
issued by all the people jointly in the
form Of government notes are bet
teri
The address then calls for the control
Of the telegraph by the people the same
as the postal system, and says the peo-
pies party does not propose to stop at
the reform proposed in the platform, as
it is a progressive organization.
Au earnest appeal to the people to
Join the organization closed the ad-

Our Sans Brother.

Hon. Joseph Travis received letter
Yesterday from R. H. Scaddan, of Afri-
ca, stating that his brother, John Scad
dan, died in that country, Of fever, on
the 30th of last March, while on pros
pecting trip. Deceased was for many
years a resident af this county. The
letter was dated johannesburg, q. A. R.,
July 5th.-Idaho World.
Mr.. Scaddan left Banner for Africa
about five years ago. He was well
known both on Wood River and in
Boise Basin. He died within twenty
four hours after being attacked with
yellow fever. He was an elder brother
of Sam Scaddan, one of the owners of
the Sheridan, Ophir and other claims
on DeLamar mountain.

Outside of our public schools, the Sun
day school is the best institution ever
devised by human society. One has
now been started in DeLamar. 1t is to
be hoped that it will be so conducted
that it will attract, and so instruct every
child in town,tbat they will all be eager
to attend. To make 1t all that it should
be it is to be hoped that parents of chill
dren will take a proper interest in it
and give it substantial aid and encour-
agement. There are here enough intel
ligent young people to supply the school
classes with excellent teachers. There
is also material here to form good BIZ
BILE class. We hope the young people
will not only consider it their duty, but
will also regard it pleasure, to attend.
While regularly attending a properly
conducted Sunday school, they will not
only improve themselves, but will be
doing good by giving encouragement to
others.

Our highly esteemed old friend Judge
Lyman, came down from Silver on Fri
day to spend few days with his friend
Ludwig at the Stoddard mine. Judge
Lyman has passed the seventhieth mile
post of useful life and has now laid
aside all his business cares to take his
ease. 1t is much more than year
since he has visited DeLamar, and the
growth of the town and the improve
ments made, much as he has beard
them talked of, were a surprise to him.
This was his first sight of an elecric
light plant. We are sure he is enjoying
himself up with Lud. and we hope he
may continue to enjoy himself always
while he is going down the grade of his
declining years. The Judge made one
grand mistake in life, in deciding to go
it alone. He had no business to be an
old bachelor.
