sEleNIoRAGE END VETOED.

President Cleveland has vetoed the
Seigniorage bill and In doing so has the
following 10 say In regard thereto:
Having referred TO some incidents
which deem relevant 10 the subject,
II remains for me to submit a specific
statement Of my objections 10 the bill
now under consideration. The entire
bill is most unfortunately constructed.
Nearly every sentence presents uncer'
tainty and invites controversy as to its
meaning aud intent. In my judgement,
sound finance does not commend fur
Their infusion Of silver into our currency
at this time unaccompanied by further
adequate provision for maintenance in
our treasury Of safe gold reserve.
doubts arise AS To the meaning aud
consaruction OF the second section Of
the bill. II silver dollars therein d.
rcctcd to be coined are AS the section
provides. to be held In the treasury for
redemption Of treasury notes, II Is sug-
gested that strictly speaking, ccrtin-
Gates cannot be issued ON such coin in
the manner now provided by law, be-
cause these dollars are money held In
the treasury for the express purpose Of
ieleeming treasury notes ON demand
II am not inscnsiblc 10 the arguments
In favor Of coming the bullion scign-
forage now In the treasury and believe
u could be done safely and with advan-
tagc II the secretary Of the treasury had
power 10 issue bonds at low rate Of In.
tcrest undcH authority In substitution
Of that now existing aud better suited
10 protection Of the treasury. hope a
way will present itself in the near future
for settlement Of this grave issue
1.-The bill is returned without my
approval"
Speaking Of the presidents veto, Mr.
Bland says: at is evident that nothing
can be done ON the currency question
without consulting the few people who
own the gold Of the world. These PEG
pl, have dictated the veto Of this bill
The fight from now on will be whether
Die people OF this country shall control

A LOVE AFFAIR IN EARLY DAYS.

A writer in the Boise Democrat tells
the following good story on Governor
Mcconnell and himself. and as the in
cidcnt narrated took place in the Pay
cite valley We publish It without preiu-
dice:
Years ago long before Bin Mcconnell
was thought Of for governor, and when
he was much more Of an Adonis than he
is now, and when he was a rattle-brain-
ed, harem scarem dare devil, 1.-THE Of
limb and active as panther and prob
ably didn't care whose horse he rode.
In the days when he preferred to mount
his horse-like the dude Of the present
degenerate times gets on 10 his safety
from the end and no difference which
pranks Of cupid and became ensnared
by the charms Of lady fair in a neigh
boring valley. Now the writer Of this
paragraph was also enamorcd OF the
fascinating young person, and they both
worshiped Mt the same shrine. though
alternately, and consequently never
crossed swords. The story however,
must be cut short. On one occasion
each Of the the smittcn men desired to
cscorle the young lady to a dance; each
discovered the others plans, and they
had race as TO who should reach the
home Of home of the sweet creatur,
first Both had spirited stceds and they
got OH about the same time though pur-
sucing different routes. One Of the
riders, believing that he was far in the
lead, dismounted at the Blockhouse for
refreshments Of the liquid variety, and
falling into the company of a lot Of con-
vivial cowboys and first class stimulants,
he become too unsteady 10 stick his
horse on rcsuming the race, and so fell
of and rested all night in the sagebrush
by the roadside, undsturbed by the
bowling coyote or anything else, until
the dawn of the following day. OF
course the other fellow, who was too in
tent upon getting there first to think of
stopping, got away with the race and
the girl. The defeated admircr took his
medicine Couldn't very well help it) as
became a pioneer, and meeting the sue
cessful rider few days later il was
mutually agreed that when one related
the incident he was to always let the
other stop at the Blockhousc. The man
who tumbled from the horse was Bill
Mcconnell"

hear Of them through the column which
gives accounts Of fearful quarrels and
desperate encounters which only reveal
the fact that the wild beast latent in the
souls Of men has been warmed into act

Another class, in their desperation, con-
clude that they have tried rs hard as
they can. and, having failed. the world
owes them living anyway, and they
appear under the head OF defalcations,

When great war strikes a nation, al

Of patriotism is awakened and men sub

" the INDEX had the slightest dispo-
sitlon to quarrel with the Statesman or
to attack the State Board Of Land Select
ors on their disposition Of the petition
from Emmett in reference TO those En-
NETT lands, we certainly have excellent
grounds for action in either case. But
rs we are not harrassed by desire to
roast anyone in this connection we are
disposed TO let the matter drop, not
withsianding the urgent requests OF
many who are displeased with the action
Of the board, not to do so, but 10 fire in
to them denounceation that will give
every member the buck ague, believing
that they were improperly influenced in
arriving at the conclusions they did in
the land matter. Others have been i'm
pertinent enough to inquire why the
Statesman came to the relief Of the board
before even one word OF displeasure had
come from this quarter. OF course the
Statesman had as good a right to speak
then as at any time but it gives such
palpablc indication Of being authoritative
~ that the old proyerb, IA guilty con-
science needs no accuser," is forcible
suggested.
