the states will be represented.
The object of the meeting is entirely
nonpartisan and will be held solely
for the porpose of effecting an or
ganization, and devising means of
distributing silver literature
throughout the eastern states. All
the political parties will be repre-
sented, not as partisans, but as 10y
al citizens determ ined in their eff
forts to promote the public good
Money will be needed to pay for
whatever literature the meeting de-
termines to circulate. Idaho can
not afford to take back seat in
this movement. We will be ex-
pected to furnish our pro rata of
funds which will be absolutely
necessary to carry the conflict on
to a successful conclusion. In
furtherance of this object, l have
outlined the following plan, here
by appeal to the citizens of Idaho
to cooperate with one another in
carrying it out. | especially APP
peal to all newspapers within the
state to unite in accomplishing this
object. Drop your differences with
one another. They are trifiing at
most compared with the great
triumph which united action will
bring. If you have grievances with
me, political or otherwise, score me
as l may deserve but in the &C
comphshment of this one object
let us be unit, sinking all .our
human selfshne IS into oblivion. =
My plan is to make~-the state
treasurer, Charles Bunting, the
custodian OF the silver educational
funds, to whom all moneys collect
ed should De sent; the publisher of
every newspaper in the state to be
a collection agent who will from
time to time publish the names of
the contributors and funds received.
All banks will be expected to
furnish exchange for this purpose
free of charge. By a general con-
tribution such as we may expect
the donation of any one individual
need only be small. l therefore
suggest that appointive and elective
officers state county and municipal,
contribute only dollar each, and
that every voter who is not an offic-
er donate % cents. Mine owners
and other persons of means need
not hesitate to give such additional
sums as their circumstances may
permit. The delegates who meet
in Salt Lake City on May 10Th will
at once organize and elect their
executive officer who will proceed
Immediately to open the education
al campaign, and if we act prompt
ly in the manner indicated, Idaho
will be prepared to sustain her mer-
tied reputation as one of the loyal
silver states of the Union. Realiz-
ing the importance of the magnitude
of the task, l appeal to each an d
every citizen to send to your local
paper, no matter which when there
, are more than one in your city, the
: small donation asked.
Yours respectfully,

to the People of the State.

THE HERALD is in receipt of the
following able document from
Governor Mcconnell:
To THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF
IDAHo:-The depressed condition of
the industries of not only our own
state but all over the United States is
such as to command the serious con-
sideration of every citizen. The near
ly empty trains which ghoul-like fit
across our continent, the broken win
dows of our silent mills and factories,
the grim tunnels and shafts of our
mines, which send forth from their
weird depths no sound of life, the
wan, pinched faces of the unemploy-
ed in our cities evidence in language
more convincing than words that
the time has. arrived when intelli-
gent and patriotic action must be
taken by our people to meet the con
ditions which confront us. The
mantle of partisanship must be laid
aside and instead we must don the
garb of manhood and womanhood
and resolve ourselves into what we
should be-Americans. For two
years President Cleveland and his
cabinet, with congress in sympathy
with their views on political econ
omy, have been, | believe, honestly
trying to better the condition of our
country. His first important act
was to cause the repeal of the purch-
ase clause of the Sherman law
promising as result the revival OF
confidence and business.
Time has demonstrated that his
prediction and those of his advisors
were wrong. He next brought
about change in our tariff laws
and that, too, failed to bring the
promised relief. 1t need not be
stated that confidence is sorely
shaken in the present national ad
ministration and the theories by
which it is governed. 1t is there
fore, time that the people of our state
should, as is their duty and right
prepare to assert themselves in the
conventions which will be helC
next year, and they should deter
mine as nearly as possible withou
party bias the cause or cause!
which have contributed to oul
present depressed condition.
| believe, in common with,
think, more than nine-tenths of tn,
people west of the Missouri river
that the low prices of everything
in which mankind deals as a com

of labor or labor itself, it caused b,
