Silver Hddress.

THE SILVER MESSENGER is in
receipt of the following silver
address to the people of Idaho
from Governor Mcconnell
To the People of the State of Ida
no 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 consideration of every
citizen. The nearly empty trains
which, ghoul-like, fiirt across the
continent, the broken windows
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 unemployed in our cities evi-
dence in language more convinc-
ing than words that the time has
arrived when intelligent and
patriotic action must be taken
by our people to meet the condi-
tions which confront US. The
mantle of partisanship must be
laid aside and instead we must
don the garb of manhood and
womanhood and resolve ourselv-
es into what we should be-
Americans. For two years Pres
ident Cleveland and his cabinet,
with congress in sympathy with
their views on political economy,
have been, I believe, honestly
trying to better the condition of
our country. His first important
act was to cause the repeal of the
purchase clause of the Sherman
law promising as result the re-
vival of confidence and business.
Time has demonstrated that
his prediction and those of his
advisors were wrong. He next
brought about a change in our
tariff laws, and that, too, failed
to bring the promised relief. II
is, therefore, time that the people
of our state should, as is their
duty and right, prepare to assert
themselves in the conventions
which will be held next year,
and they should determine as
nearly as possible without party
bias the cause or causes which
have contributed to our present
depressed condition.
I believe, in common with,
think, more than nine-tenths OF
the people west of the Missouri
river, that the prices of every,
thing in which mankind deals as
a commodity, whether it be the
product of labor or labor itself
is caused by the enhanced value
of gold, brought about by the
demonetization of silver. Nc
. considerable number of people
in the west will differ with me
on this question. 1t therefore
becomes our duty not to waste
time abusing those opposed tt
our views, or arguing with one
another, but rather let us pro
ceed at once with such intel
, ligence as we possess to restore
the white metal as a money o.
final redemption at the ratio o.
16 to 1.
A call has been issued by Gov
ernor Richards, of Montana, fol
a meeting to be held in Salt Lake
City on Wednesday, May 15tl
t next. He has written to all gov
ernors west of the Mississippi
{ requesting them to be presen
and send three delegates from
: each state. The call was timely
and he has received an assuranc,
5 that all the states will be repre-
| sented. The object of the meet
ing is entirely non-partisan ant
will be held solely for the pur
, pose of effecting an organiza
ton, and devising means of dis
tributing silver literature in the
eastern states. All the politica
parties will be represented, no
as partisans, but as loyal citizens

w. G. Fritter departed fol
Salmon Saturday Of last week in
the interest of the New York

Fritter made out about eighteen
policies while here, and he will
return to Challis again in few

considered the most reliable
company in the world.
Fred Vogler, of Blackfoot, is
in Challis very low with what

1t looks as though we would
have a wagon road to yellow
Jacket in the near future. Johr
Stephens and j. M. Jackson O.
the committee, have been outfol
the past week surveying th,
proposed route. 1t is understood
that some reliable man will b,
hired as overseer, and said over
seer to have charge of construc
tion and empowered to hire an(
discharge men. The route viii

will start at point near JOIN
Stephens house. Work will un
doubtedly be commenced on the
road In snort time.
We learn that James Hooper

Hooper is one of Custer county

in this movement. We will be
expected to furnish our pro rata
of the funds which will be abso-
lutely necessary to carry the
conflict on to a successful con-
clusion. In furtherance of this
object, | have outlined the fol-
lowing plan, and hereby appeal
to the citizens of Idaho to CO.
operate with one another in
carrying it out. especially ap-
peal to all newspapers within
the state to unite in accomplish
ing this object. Drop your diff
ferences with one another. They
are trifing at most compared
with the great triumph united
action will bring. If you have
grievances with me, political or
otherwise, score me as I may
deserve but in the accomplish
ment of this one object let us be
a unit, sinking all our human
selfishness into oblivion.
My plan is to make the State
Treasurer, Charles Bunting, the
custodian of the silver educational
funds, to whom all moneys col
lected should be sent; the pub
Usher of every newspaper in the
state to be collection agent who
will from time to time publish
the names of the contributors
and forward to the Treasurer
the funds received.
All banks will be expected to
furnish exchange for this pur-
pose free of charge. By gen.
eral contribution such as we may
expect the donation of any one
individual need only be small. I
therefore suggest that appoint
i've and elective officers, state,
county and municipal, contribu te
only a dollar each, and that every
voter who is not an officer donate
25 cents. Mine owners and 9TH
er persons of means need not
hesitate to give such additional
sums as their circumstances may
permit. The delegates who meet
in Salt Lake City May 18th will
at once organize and elect their
executive officers who will pro-
ceed Immediately to open the
educational campaign, and if we
act promptly in the manner in
dicated, Idaho will be prepared
to sustain her merited reputa-
tion as one of the loyal silver
states of the Union. Realizing
the importance of the moment
; and the magnitude of the task !
appeal to each and 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,
: w. J. MCCONNELL,
Governor.
A hough we may N t agree
with Governor Mcconnell in a
political sense, we cooperate
with him in this movement. All
partisanship should be cast to
: the winds and all join in harmony
: and re-establish silver at the old
ratio. With our forces divided
we are helpless. Party is of
little consequence when compar-
ed to goldbug slavery. We have

their donations to this Office (no
! matter how small) at once, as we

The Hay Crop.
Editor Florida Agricu1turiSt:

Wnat TO 90 dDOuL Gne nay crop IOF IulS
year. Crab grass and crowfoot are COM
ing along nicely; there is time yet,
though none to lose, to sow millet, beg
gar weed, field peas, ETC., for fall gath
erng of excellent fodder. Let us look
at this matter in the most practical
shape that we are able thus to do. 1t
hardly matters whether every one of
those who have some fenced in land
keeps horse or more, or COWS. or other
kind of animals requiring hay or fodder;
for there is near-bv home demand for
all, or more than will be gathered. Sup
pose it does not sell for 81 per 100 pounds
it is quite likely to bring sixty to eighty
cents per 100 pounds and this will do
pretty we'll for a grass crop. What is
meant here by grass crop is one that
can be made up into hay or fodder and
leaves the soil full of roots readily avail
able for the next crop. The writer's ex-
perience has taught him that grass
crop is most excellent forerunner 70,
almost any other crop which may be de-
sired to follow in the line of cultivation.
The abundance of small roots filling the
soil with vegetable matter creates a
humus as soon as the same begins to
decay.
The farmer whether fruit grower
gardener. or engaged in other lines of
cropping, will always find it pay him to
make some kind of grass crop whereby
to reinvigorate his land for other kinds
of crops. In the four or five course sys-
tenn of cropping in practice among Eng
lish farmers the grass crop is made a
compulsory one for tenants.
In Florida. above almost any other
state, we need to cultivate the grasses
indigenous or otherwise; even i the
soil is too light and thin or worn down
and needs good spread of fertilizer to
bring anything, let this be given with as
liberal hand as the tiller can afford.
The writer remembers we'll an old i'm
poverlshed field that from his childhood
on for twenty years or more hardly bore
crop enough of any kind to hide the
ground. The farm had changed owners
frequently, but after time a certain
owner coming into possession plowed up
this field and applied a good, liberal
spreading of bcnedust and sowed some
crop with grass seed mpanying it.
A year or so later the writer in passing
over this same field was astonished at
the thick, heavy cushion-like mat of
grass which had come to possess this
piece of land. 1t was simply wonder
full change from almost complete bar
renness to growth of the most luxu-
rant character the reader can we'll i'm
agine. 1t is the height of folly to sup
pose that grass will not grow with luXu-
rance in this State. Too many proofs
to the contrary have been already made
manifest. 1t is doubtful If there is any
other line of cropping 50 particularly
useful to the land workers in Florida as
that of the grasses, and to ignore this as
many have done is by no means WISE
More grass means either more animals
or more money lett In our pockets More
animals means more meat and milk and
butter and cheese, etc., of our own pro-
duction.
By all means let us give the grass crop
