bout an inch below the heart, and be-
coming lost in the flesh. The trouble

ed DR.. Vidal to proceed posthaste to the

E. X. ABBOTT, Esq,
Neihart, Mont.
DEAR SIR:-Yours of the 9Th came
duly to hand. The rush of work at this
office prevented that prompt reply which
in all cases we intend should he made.
We are always pleased to hear from oul
friends in the west, that are alive to the
situation at this time. We are passing
through the critical stage of the move
ment for the restoration of silver. The
public has at last begun to realize that
something is wrong, that tariff tinker
ing will not remedy. every letter that
comes in brings us a long list of names
of people who are on the anxious seat,
The demand upon us for literature
since the first of the year has been far in
excess of our ability financially to sup.
ply.
Our friends in Colorado are
realizing the necessity of vigorously
pushing our work now, since all classes
of our people are in more receptive con-
dition than ever before. The silver
cause can be won, but only by prompt
vigorous and decisive action. The move
to make now is to secure the election OF
men to the next congress, that are fol
the restoration of silver at the old ratio,
from start to finish regardless of the
dictum of president or party caucus
The work of organization is going or
rapidly and if we car have the where.
with to supply the demand upon us, We
will put an organization behind our con
gressmen and senators that will make
them stay.
. We will be glad to hear from YOU
often. Very truly yours,
J. M. DEvINE,
Secretary.

for mayor were called for.
Jack Wilson, NJ. F. Boland, NJ. T..
Lennon and 7. b. Gregg were placed in
nomination. The first two declined
very gracefully, and nobody present
knew if the last would serve, or make
the rum. An evident majority of the
caucus favored ~postpCrement of action
till a latea day until the field had been
more closely examined, that the light of
after reflection might help them to act
with more candor in the important act
of choosing their candidate. F. Scherrer
spoke vigorously for the above but upon
subsiding he was Immediately sat down
upon.
The vote VAS called which resulted in
q for Lennon and Ia for Gregg. 1t
was looked for that some of the more
enthusiastic would call for a vote to un-
animify the transaction but no such
action was taken. Lennon being de-
clared the nominee delivered a speech OF
acceptance as only he known how to
make. After naming the time and
place of the ward meetings the meeting
adjourned.
