Dubois Made HIS Peint.

In the Senate last Wednesday the
Legislative, Executive and judicial
appropriation bill was discussed. The
matter of SO amending a certain sc c.
ton that the Surveyor General oil
Idaho would receive $4,000 for the
clerks IN mis- Office instead of $4,000,
called forth considerable objection,
but earnest work on the part OF Sen.
ator Dubois silenced all opposition,
and the amendment was agreed to.
In brief speech Senator Dubois
said that according to the report OF
Congressman Holman, two acres oil
unsurveyed Idaho land had been Ia
ken up to one which had been sur
veyed. In other words one. half OF
our people were living upon lands tc
which they could not secure title
About 10, 799,0l7 acres had been sur.
veyed and 2l,446,309 had been taken
up. In addition to that were those
grants of land which the Government,
gave us and which we cannot have
surveyed because we have not ap.
preparations for the Office work. Set
tiers were coming into the State and
were taking up the lands, deprivine
the State not only of the taxes which
It would collect when the lands were
surveyed, but depriving the State Of
the opportunity to take up the best
lands for Government purposes.

TniRD PARTY TAcriCs,


The Colorado delegates to the Ma
tional Convention are cross over the
silver I lank. They have right to
be. The silver plank promises moth.
ing; it advocates nothing that the
vericss goldite in the United States
will not joyfully accept. We believe
Colorado Democrats and Republic
ans alike are so crossed that they
would be ready to join = third party
It there was prospect Of doing any
good by % doing. We wish to warn
them that a third party this year
would do nothing except possibly put
the election where il would DO sure
TO result in Mr.. Cleveland's favor.
And when those Democrats say there
is no choice between Mr.. Cleveland
and Mr.. Harrison, we think that is
unfair. We believe that before No
vember President Harrison will dem
onstrate that he is better silver man
than any President Of the United
States has been since General Grant
went out OF Office. We have confident
hopes that in the next four menths
such disposition will be recommend.
ed by the international conference
that every man in the West will see
that il is the way up to the full settle
ment OF that question. We know
that President Harrison is urging on
that conference with oil the speed he
can. This being true, it is unfair 10
say that he aud Mr.. Cleveland stand
on the same ground regarding silver.
VI all the pronounced anti-silver men
who in public life have given their
views during the last eight years, not
one has been more offensive TO the
West than Mr.. Cleveland. More
than that, when he was elected Presi-
dent silver commanded price so
high that it did not look like injustice
Tor Congress to put the metals on
parity and TO give them an equal
chance. Under his management dur
ing his term, silver fell 10 per cent,
or rather gold appreciated 10 per cent,
which Is the same thing. And could
he have had his way, he would have
made OF silver simple merchandise
nothing more nor less. In pursuance
OF that, he sent continually abroad
such goldites as Edward Atkinson
and Hugh McCullock to mis-state
the position OF the American people
on silver, and to bring back to this
country the mis-statement of the men
OF England and Europe on the same
subject.
Mr.. Cleveland as q candidate is an
out and out burlesque to Western
Democrat. To ask a Western man
to support a man like him requires
an Immense amount OF cheek. Not
only is he crooked on silver, but he
is just as heartless on lead. The
platform he stands upon demands FREQ
lead, and there is not Democrat in
Utah, or in Colorado, Idaho, Mon.
tana, or Nevada, or any State of the
West, who does not know that could
he be elected, the tariff on lead and
on wool would be stricken off at
once.
lis only fair to look things square
IN the face, and to deal with them
accordingly.

TO be for free trade by its refusal, by
over a two-thirds vote at Chicago, to in
sert clause in its platform favoring
the protection of labor. On the uncon-
stitutionality OF the bill which bears

highest judicial body, the supreme
court, and referred to the action OF the
Congress OF 1889, OF which Madison was
u member. in passing protective

MIR. BLAIXE TALKs.
He Will Not Say Whether He viii Write
Another Letter.


New YORK, Oct. 17.-Mr. and Mrs.
Blaine arrived at the Fifth avenue
Hotel at one o'clock this afternoon.
They were met by their son-in-law,
Walter Damrosch. The arrival Of Mr..
Blaine interested politicians who loiter
about this place. The Republicans
seemed delighted, but the Democrats
appeared quite the reverse. 1t has
been reported that Mr.. Blaine would
write another letter. The second COM
munication was intended for the Irish
American voter it Is said.
When Mr.. Blaine heard OF these
stories ne laughed and TO reporter for
the Associated Press said: II am in
New York waiting for Mrs. Blaine. She
will probably be here tonight or
tomorrow. Soon after her arrival
we will journey to Washington where
l will spend the winter. That's all the
politics there is in my visit to New
York"
"Have you seen any of the politicians
YETI" was asked.
~ have not"
"Will you write another letter or
make other speeches in the campaignT
II would not want to answer that di.
rectly. II l say no. 1shall be besieged
by the people who will beg me to do
something for my party. If say yes,
1 shall be requested to go here and
there and everywhere, and / wont
know which way to turn. So you see
there is only one thing for me to do.
That Is to rest l am Obliged to take
good care Of my health. That comes
before politics."
Mr.. Blaine looks better than he did
before he went to 0phir farm. His So
lourn with the candidate for the vice
presidency on the Republican side has
benefited him.

New YoRE, Oct l7.-Moro than the
usual activity was apparent in and
around Republican national headquar-
ters this morning. Tho members OF exc
cutlye committee were present and the
reception room was filled with peopls
awaiting the opportunity to be admit
ted to the sanctum upstairs.
Robert Lincoln, minister to the Court
OF st. James; U. S. Senator Eugene Halo,
of Maine; John Brennan, OF Iowa, and
ex-Congressman John r. Lynch, OF
Mississippi, and Minister Egan were
among the early visitors and each Of
them had long private interview with
Chairman Carter.
Minister Egan had this TO say in
regard to recent publications endeav-
oring to create sensation over an
alleged attempt on his part to snub
Mr.. Blaine at White Plains:
"Being called upon to speak without
preparation, omitted to make the re-
ference that / ought to have made to
the manly and patriotic manner in
which Mr.. Blaine stood by me through
out all the attacks made upon me in
the Chilean affairs. One Of
the greatest compensation for
the difficult times had
in Chile was the fact that my entire
course OF action was cordially approved
by MIR. Blaine, as well as by the Presi-
dent and all the members of the cabi-
net. From Maine to Texas there is
mono who mas higher respect and
regard Tor Mr.. Blaine than ! have, In
fact my sentiments towards him amount
toatlection. Therefore the statement that
/ intended to in any way disparage Mr..
Blame is made out OF the whole cloth.
The statement to the effect that said
in Washington that certain dispatches
were signed by Mr.. Harrison is on the
face of it absurd. The President never
signs any such dispatches"
Serious charges come from Repub-
lican headquarters Of frauds in natural-
ization. 1t Is charged that runners
from Tammany bring in droves OF
Hungarians, Poles and Italians who will
vote the Democratic ticket at the
expense of whose naturalization
is paid and issuance OF papers facilitated
and it is stated that the combination to
guage applicants for naturalization and
cut down the Republican naturalized
vote has been operating for more than
three weeks with the full knowledge OF
the officers OF the courts. On Saturday
it is charged eighty.fve Republican
applications for naturaliSations were
rejected, most ofthem on outrageously
insufficient grounds, after the men had
spent from six hours to two days in the
effort TO reach the clerks Office behind
the crowd of Talnmany heelers, who
had passed in ahead OF them.

however, that this is impossible; and l
am unwilling to make the trip, which,
from beginning TO end, despite all eff
forts on my part, would be regarded az
a political tour made by candidate Tor
the presidency. My general aversion
to such trip is overwhelmingly in
creased in this particular instance when
recall the affective dispensation which

another candidate for the presidency.
thus frankly state the reasons
which constrain me to forego the sat

sympathetic sentiment, which ought to

considerations will be deemed abun-
dant justification of my act.

The trade OF this company extended as
