THE folly of the law making all
obligations payable in either gold or
silver is already becoming apparent
Several large loan companies have
Withdrawn from the state, and it is
doubtful if the state bonds author
lied can be negotiated. Eastern
capitalists do not care to invest their
money IN bonds and be forced to ac-
cept silver in payment when they be-
come due. Idaho can't force silver
to the front it must be done by
national legislation. -Ceur d'Alene
