In the Judgment OF tho New York
Evening Pos. the Republican majority
OF 1000 in St. Louis puts the state OF
Missouri in the doubtful list next year"
This is not the way the Evening Post
would like it to be. but unqucs.ionabIy
this is tho way it ls.
Other states hitherto Democratic will
DO in the doubtful list next year. We
do not include West Virginia in this
category. Vest Virginia ha, one into
tho list OF Republican states and in 1896
will give her electoral vote to the Re.
publican ticket. As m earnost OF good
faith West Virginia is now represented
in the Congress OF the United States by
four representatives and one senator OF
the Republican household OF faith.

Money In Political Campaigns.

Some Chicago Democrats think tina.
il their campaign fund OF $4,000 had
all been expended in tho recent election
they might have won; aud they want
to know what has become OF the money,
secured largely by assessing city IN.
ployes.
1t is almost uncomfortable that so
much money was raised for a city cam.
paign. Furthermore it is not probable
tina! $4,000 could have turned the
tide that ran against tine Democratic
nominees By more than 10. 1908 plurality.
Money accomplishes a great deal in pol.
itics. but there are figure, which it can
not rub out When the people get
started OF a certain limo money will not
stop them.
The Republican party could no, have
won in 1892 il i. had ten times AZ much
money as it did have. So with the Dem
ocratic party in 1891. There are limits
on the usefulness OF money in politics.

platform:
Resolved, That at the earliest mo-
ment at which it can be legally done,
and without in any way considering
the financial policy of any other ma
ton, or nations, and ignoring all adj
vice, suggestions or threats from any
and every source, our national govern
ment should return to the monetary
policy of the fathers of the republic.
and at the coinage ratio of gold and
silver at 16 to ! respectively, should
again permit to individuals the unlim-
tied coinage of silver and gold in our
national minis without preference to
either metal, thus again making our sill
Yer and our gold coin equal for ali pur-
poses in this country without discrim-
ination for or against either, thereby
again making our silver dollar. as it
should always have remained, a stand
ard unit measure of Values
No programme has been arranged for
the morning session, so the chairman
announced that the time would be oc-
cupied with voluntary speeches on sill
yer. A number of delegates represent
ing various occupations made brief adj
dresses in response to the invita- ton.
The work of the silver convention
was practically ended when the resolu-
tons were adopted. In the evening
number of stirring speeches were made
and the convention adjourned.

BOISE. Idaho. Aug. 21,-Political as
well as religious circles in Boise are con-
siderably stirred up over the news of
the charges brought against Rev. Daniel
Gamble, Of Moscow, a member of the

men, was instructed TO vote for Willis
Sweet for United States senator, and il
.wa5 asserted M openly avowed his pur-
Dose of so doing, prior to coming to the
legislature. After he arrived. however,
he threw Sweet off and voted first for
r. S. Browne, and then threw his vote
TO Shoup, without which the latter would
not have been elected when he was, if
at all. Gamble is a Presbyterian minis
ter. although he threw off the clerical
robe several years ago, and went to
farming, still holding his credentials as
a full-iedged minister of the gospel. He
is now charged with drunkenness, re-
fusal to partake of the sacrament, vio-
1ating the Sabbath, profanity and, last of
all. failure 10 keep faith with his fellow
men-this last with reference to the sem
atorial contest.
All the charges are signed by Sweet
men, and Gamble claims it is merely an
effort to ruin him because of his failure
t0~vote for Sweet.

are secretly taking testimony to be pre-
sented at the session of the presbytery
at Pendleton in October. It is also stated

MANY MILES BURNED OVER.
New Jersey Suffers Terribly from
Forest Fires-SeveraI Lives Are
Lost.

NEW YORK, Aug. 2t-The portion
of New Jersey bounded by the towns
of Pomona, Port Republic, Brigantine
Junction and Absecom, is either threat
ened by forest fires or already devas-
tated.
Hundreds of miles have been burned
over, houses and live stock consumed
and it is feared there has been con-
siderable loss Of life. Scattered through
out the burning country are numerous
houses, but it is impossible to send
them any help. Residents of Absecom
were called out of church Sunday tc
fight the flames, and it was only after
a hard battle the town was saved
There was hardly an inhabitanr but
bore some mark of the fight which had
waged from noon until midnight. FJy
ing cinders and burning brands had
scared backs and faces and their
clothes were in tatters. Others re-
ceived serious injuries, and MANY a
home presented the appearance of a
hospital after the struggle was over.
1t is reported that Port Republic is
threatened, but nothing definite can be
learned. although the glare of the fire
could be plainly seen from Atlantic
City last night.
