CALDWELL LETTER.
Eprron INprx

The progress Of the trial OF the CONey-
ties At Boise City has developed some
very significant facts according to the
reports in the papers. II came out In
the evidence that the Wealers had been
encouraged and helped with money 10
leave Oregon and were impressed with
she belief that sufficient funds would be
furnished to send them through TO Kan
sas City. husiead Of that the Poftandcrs
gave them barely sufficient TO get them
out Of Oregon into Idaho and then left
them To their fate.
Now this city Of Portland Is one Of
wenlthicst Cities on the Pacific coast,
II contains republican bankers and
millionairs by the score, who control
the politics Of the state and send such
blood-sucking cormornnts as Senator
Dolph 10 the United States Senate and
elect such men ms banker Lord to the
Gcvcrnorship and do such other things MS
the lusts Of the flesh and unlimited
wealth may incline them to, but when
II comes 10 finding work for starving
men they make Joke Of IL aud cunning
Is cnticed them out OF the state. It
seems strange that the party that came
into power thirty years ago MS the friend
II the worlslnrman should breed such
children.
This party which has had unlimited
control Of the Government for at least
- years has bcgot some children that
for monstrosiiy has not been cquallcd IN
In any one century Of the Worlds his
tory. Its first born is named "Pntocrat'
aud Is the pride aud pet Of the party.
the scrond is named Tramp" and Is
such sorry pup that he is the butt Of
rdiculc In all regions and is so worthless
that even his paternity can't secure him
word Of commentator.
The third son is such peculiar nom
descript aud So unlike all other things
beneath the sun that he has been named
spindle legged dude" and while not
exactly the pride Of his parents is one
Of the lovely children and has TO be
sent TO Europe every summer for his
health. The fourth and last Is called
'Weaicr" and though only a sucking
infant the party is so ashamed Of him
that il Is trying to disown him and
shove him OIL as an orphan onto the
populisis
Now these four prophets Of unlimited
republican sway are SO familiar To all
ihe people Of the land that 1t is only
necessary 10 name them and their
parcntage Is recognized at once. But
the rarity is again cnccint and this time
,,s likely 10 be Il mule or more scientific
ally speaking hybrid. A cross Of the
mugwump and republican. a sort Of a

pup. what they will christen him Is
hard 10 say. The cross has been untricd
heretofore. but whatever IL may be
Rothchnd is to be its godfather. They
SAY that little Freddie Dubois is aspiring
10 be Maid Of ,hc bsd.chamhcr and Tom
Reed Is studying the ease up as chief
physician. The child Is expected TO be-
squally one and the republican papers
Of Idaho are already getting the pare
roric ready. Down east they want Ia
chrislen il "honcst money" aud out
west they want To call h "Wooly CusS'
but II won't do to name It tin the thing
shows It's coming.
