Physician Heal Thyself."
As Seen by an Ohio Bimetallist.

EX. Com. OF Timetable Union OF Idaho,
in the NUeoET Of Sept. 2S, concluded
he was looking too far away from home
in order to get in his missionary work.
While there is a good opportunity OF
getting in the work that he has in view
in the East, the question arises wheth-
er there is not great need oft right 10
the State of Idaho, and even greater
than in the State of Ohio.
The people of Ohio look out for their
interests. The great manufacturing in
terests are at Columbus and Washing
ton to secure legislation favorable to
their interests. The Standard Oil Co.
have been there and everybody knows
it. Those wanting appropriations for
rivers and harbors are on hand; towns
and cities that want public buildings
press their claims also, and the wool
growers, butter-makers, coal and iron
men are not found mapping. and all get
there, and that is what Idaho should do
in regard to silver, as should all silver
producing states, and if the citizens of
those states do not take a consistent
course in regard to their greatest
interest, how can they expect people in
the East will, who are not interested in
the profits of its production.
Your Governor put himself on record
last fall, in his canvass, as a champion
for freer use of silver as per his
speech at Silver City and the part he
took in the meeting, last summer, at
Salt Sake was on that line. If he was
in earnest and honest he should keep
such company, that in preference to
any other if his cause is of the magni-
tude that he represented it, and there
is no denying that it is; how can he
quietly and peacefully keep the com
pany of John Sherman, Governor Nc
Kinley, Grover Cleveland, Secretary
Carlisle, R. G. Horr and hosts of other
men of wealth and influence in the
East? How about your Senator, who
was reputed as going to attend the meet
ing at Cleveland of the National Repub-
lican League, not with sabre in its
scabbard, but drawn and in the fight
for freer use for silver and that the
word should 90 out from that meeting?
But when the eastern influence pats
him on the back and says, "Don't kick!
Keep quiet! There is a hen on. You
wait another year and we will make it
all right with yea fellows.p Now that
is not the kind of vertebra for genu.
inc true silver man to have. There are
lots of them in Ohio that have better
stuff in them. Every man woman and
child in the state of Idaho, should
be unit on this one and all important
subject, to the better development OF
the possibilities of the Seen of the
Mountains But if belonging to this
Or that particular party is hinderance,
then they should, to serve their best in
'erests, get together as surely as magnet
attracts particles of iron or steel bit.
This should be the gospel in silver
Itates; you must or should be found on
he right side. You can't ''serve God and
nammon," and ifthe people of idaho
Won't stand up to the rack it's certainly
lngracious to ask the people Of the East
o do the work that they are expected
0 do.
There are great numbers of true
riends of silver in the East, and they \
re hard at work for the cause and p
peakers and literature are proper to be t
sed here, but you can be assured that v
is already being done. The fight is c
n, it's earnest, but it Is not being done
y either of the old parties. Not bit
The 'Lord help those who help them
elves" Mr.. Bryan, are the voters Of
daho in line in this matter? Wilson
tor Dubois, Governor Mcconnell, At
'rney Borah, of Boise, and the sup =
orters Of the Republican party, keep :
ompany with John Sherman and his
in Ohio, and their names are
gion, as they are in other slates? a
hose who are in favor Of freer use of O
liver look to the silver producing states =
n them to move to the front solidly on
lis line and the cry in the East is, 1--WE
e coming, Father Abraham" We
ave money and literature here in the
asst and it is being freely used. Con-
'rt the heather in your own midst be-
re you send your missionaries out
ire. Still, there is a great field to
ork in here. We have the votes, to
sure, and ifthe silver states will be
lie to their interests and be consistent,
will accelerate the movement here.
