THE BOOMERANG AT WORK.

The enemies of silver must be some
what dismayed by the conditions which
accompany it's fall. They have told us
all along that when the coinage of silver
was restricted, new confidence would
follow in money circles and business in
speculative centers would improve be-
cause of relief from this so-called bur
den.
What is the result? In London, the
financial hub and clearing house OF the
world, the drop in silver is followed by
a heavy drop in American securities
This reaches New York and causes a
fear that all but turns into q panic,
while in Chicago comes in turn the
| most significant feature OF all, slump
Of two cents in wheat. This carries out
the free coinage doctrine that when
silver is high the price of wheat is in
proportion and vice versa. According
even to the gold bug Associated Press
''the drop in silver in London demoral-
| lied the market" in New York. 1t is of
some consolation to the people OF Mon
tana to learn that this silver panic acts
| as a boomerang on the men who started
it. 1t will hit very much harder if CON
gress decides to shut off the metal from
circulation. Its effects will then reach
into the industrial and agricultural
classes and utter decentralization of busi-
ness will follow. Time is all that is needed
to complete this vicious work unless it
stopped by the sound sense of the peo-
pie.
Yesterdays quotations, while showing
another heavy fall, would indicate that
the bottom is at least in sight. While
tho ruling price was 60 cents 60 cents
was offered for thirty days delivery.
The latter figure would seem to show
that there are n few goldbugs willing tc
! buy silver, with confidence that it will
not fall lower within the coming month
If the depression continues, however
mine owners miners and laborers of ali
classes in the vest will join in the hope
that tho humping process will contn ue
in Wall street until tho spectators who
thought they saw prosperity in slver's
ruin are hoisted by their own petard,

The fellow who tells us show to see

bore, but the Cincinnati Tribune's cor
respondent unconsciously ndds a pleas
ing dash Of humor to his suggestions.
He snys:
The dancing In the Turkish and oriental

Chicago and downtown theaters, for they

This mans advice should be half
'copperea." Leave the oriental thea
ters alone il they are disgusting, attend
one of the city theaters, where the best
OF American actors may be seen, attend
church on Sunday and the fair, too, if
you feel like it. In any event, don't
sandwich disgusting exhibitions with re-

A CONVENTION OF SILVER MEN,

A convention Of Montana mine own
ers and others interested in the silver
industry will be held at the Hotel
Broadwater on Thursday of next week
The stirring call to be found in another
column indicates the purposes, while
the subjoined names show that it will
be thoroughly representative meeting.
We hope that every town and mining
camp in the state will send its best cit
izens. There are no regulations rs to
the method of choosing delegates, for it
is intended that the sessions shall be
open to discussion from all who may at
tend. Let all come with the determin-
alton that Montana shall henceforth be
found in the front rank Of workers for
justice to the white metal. Let there
be no further delay, for the situation
has reached that crisis where nothing
but the best energy can bring silver
whore it belongs.
More than two years ago THE INDE-
PENDENT advocated such convention
as is to be held. 1t argued that in view
OF the persistent warfare in money CEN
ters, the silver producers should organ
ize and work together on campaign
methods. If this had been done the
people of these states would have been
prepared for the attack which came like
Il whrlwind and is designed to kill the
industry wherever it is found. Tt is
high time now for action. When con-
gress meets the enemies of silver will be
assembled en- masse, not only to wipe
the Sherman law from the statutes, but
to prevent any legislation that may
give even a fraction of the right
which silver demands. This work is
already well under way. The gold bug
newspapers of the east are banded to-
gether for the creation of a great pub
lie sentiment against any government
recognition of silver, while the bankers
and manipulators are daily besieging
the president and his cabinet with let
tors urging this purpose. The silver
men must be on the ground to meet
them. The alarm has been sounded
and all must respond.
1t is earnestly hoped that the visitors
to the convention in Helena will come
armed with plans, methods and sugges-
tions. No time should be lost in useless
discussion. Nothing is to be gained by
wholesale denunciation of gold bugs.
however much they may deserve it. We
are all for free silver in this country,
but in order to win we mrs5 have less
wind and more work. Many gatherings
for good purposes fiuke out because the
delegates neglect busines to hear the
sound of their voices. The purpose of
this convention is to arrange systematic
work and its deliberations should be
confined to that line alone.

There is but little of important
Legislation being accomplished in Con-
gress. There appears to be a
disposition in the Senate on the part
Of the Republican members to do as
little as possible pending the change
in the administration and the possible
change in the political complexion of
the Senate itself. Leading Republican
Senators say that outside the passage
Of the Appropriation bills there will be
almost nothing done at this session.
They say it would be useless for them
to attempt any partisan legislation,
as it would not go through the House
and the calendar would only be filed
up with mass of bills that could
never become laws. The Democratic
leaders in the House make similar
explanations of the lack of action on
the part of that body.

THE WEISER SIGNAL.
THURSDAY, JANUARY 10, 1898.

Taken on the whole, the present
Idaho legislature is very intelligent
body of men who evince a very
decided disposition to accomplish
something. 1t appears their unan-
imous desire to push work ahead
without useless delay and enact some
good laws. Though having just
spent several days in Boise, our time
was so taken up with other matters
as to allow little time to take
observations that would be interesting
to the public. One would need to
have his attention unocupied by other
things in order to study the under
current which always generally flows
beneath the outward appearance of
things. There is a very extensiv e
lobby working for the passage of
different bills in which they are
interested. There appears to be a
very strong combination existing
between members from the northern
and southeastern part of the state
which it is possible may in the end
have some bearing on the location Of
the agricultural college and other
matters. 1t is to be hoped that there
is no COLLISION of sufficient strength tc
carry legislation, through sectional
interest, that would be detrimental
to the interests Of the whole st ate.
At present the college situation is
decidedly in favor Of Weiser. The
battle has narrowed down until Idaho
Falls is our only opponent. The frs
actual trial of arms took place las
Tuesday afternoon. Both the Bling
ham and the Washington county bill'
for the college had advanced to the
time for third reading, the Bingham
bill coming first. Had the Idaho
Falls people got the bill read ant
put on its passage, there is but little
doubt but that at that time it woulc
have carried. A motion was made to
defer the bill to Feb. 1st which caused
lively sklrmish and finally resulted
In the motion being carried, which
made the Washington county lobby
feel jubilant; but our bill was also, {
few moments later, laid over unit
Feb. I'd. Mr.. johnson shortly after
in the senate, gave notice that hi
would on the morrow in troduce bill
in that branch locating the college a
Weiser, and the bill probably had its
first reading yesterday. This turr
again puts US in the lead of the Bling
ham people.
