IT is hard to form much of an
idea what is going to be done with
the silver question in Congress this
session. Petitions are in circula-
ton among the anti-free-coinage
Democrats asking that the question
be allowed to rest until after the
next Presidential election, and the
free coinage men are circulating a
petition to push the measure to the
front and get it out of the way of
other important business as soon
as possible. Dispatches one day
say that the Bland bill will with
out a doubt pass the House, and
the next day news comes that the
Democrats are backing and filling
so that it will be almost impossible
to pass the bill. In the meantime
silver is lower than it ever was be-
fore and the mines and mills in
the silver producing States are be-
ing closed down and the business
of the country surrounding them
deadened. The poor people are be-
coming poorer and the millionaires
richer through speculation in silver,
a metal that was intended to be
the money of the country, and not
a commodity.
The Democratic majority in the
House is large, and that party has
always claimed to be friendly to
silver, in fact. the Democrats in
the House got there for the only
reason that they were supposed to
be for free coinage. Let THIN car
ry out the wishes of the people or
their party will be disrupted. More
money is what the people want,
and it is ridiculous to argue that
the more money put in circulation
the harder up will be the country.
Republicans won't give us free
coinage, and it seems to be doubt
full about Democrats doing so, and
for the life of us we don't see how
the people are going to get what
they want until the feeling becomes
so strong that both the old parties
will be swept aside and honest peo-
pie form a great American party,
the fundamental principles of which
shall be: Free Coinage of Gold
and Silver; the Suppression of For
eign immigration, and Protection
to American Industries.

A COMPARISON of the immigration
statistics for 1890 and 1891 shows
that the immigration for the latter
year shows an increase of more than
20 per cent. over the former. The
total for 1891 is over six hundred
thousand. Germany, Russia and
Sweden are sending larger num-
bers than ever before. The great
influx from Russia is the phenom-
enon of the year. Most of these,
it may be assumed, are Jewish ref
ugees. Another remarkable feature
of the immigration for the last year
is the marked falling off in the
italian influx. The decrease has
been sexty-three per cent. This is
not to be attributed to the New
Orleans affair, which is now almost
forgotten, but to the policy of the
italian government to try to dis
courage further immigration, and
the possible diversion of part OF
the Italian emigration current tc
South America.

If there was Society for the
Prevention Of Cruelty to Animals
in Idaho it would have Its hands
full of business now. Cattle and
horses are freezing and starving by
the hundreds because no precaution
was taken by the owners of the
herds to have food and shelter for
the dumb animals in the case of
heavy storms and severe cold wealth
er. Stockmen should not have
more cattle and horses than they
can take good care of in any emer-
