JIBBERING EDWARD.

When William p. st. John ad-
dressed the national convention Of
bankers at Atlanta, his remarks were
heard in GOODNESS. That was because
MIR. ST. John, although a brother
banker and New York banker at
that, spoke in support of the free
coinage Of silver. When Edward
Atkinson addressed the same audi
ence he was loudly applauded That
was because he brought forward a
proposal for an immediate additional
bond Issue Of $50, 900, 900. Ed.
Atkinson, you know, is the great
economist. He can figure out how
the American working man could live
on eight cents day. When the
plutes saw this it struck them to per-
lection. They realized what won
derful scientific economist he was
and at once picked him up for their
darling own Edward. Economy in
the cost of labor's existence meant
less wages to pay and was therefore
economy for pampered plutes. But
his economy seems to have lost itself
when he gets to the other end of the
line and he wants 80 million dollar
extravaganza. Economy on the part
of the government at that end wouldn' t
feather the plute nest any 1t is at
this point that st. John becomes an
economist, and Atkinson shows the
sole goal of his own wonderful, aston
ishing, magnificent, admirable eco
nomical abilities to be the benefit of
the plute pockets.
Go way, Ed, you are fraud as a
statistician; you are the paid advo-
cate of the creditor class of New
York, Boston and London. The
harm of your dark and sinister work
makes us shudder. Vim. 2. st. John.

Judge Hubbard, of Iowa, says it

George Gould says it is the hostil-

The silver men say it is the action

WATCH THE SMALL HOLES.

In the hot campaign now on in

mering the anvil for its entire party

natural. But as journal anxious

wonder if it has lowered its telescope

his views, but still he does now and

the people, because he is otherwise a

1t is bad. We must carry this des-
perate fight for human welfare into
the very smallest hooks and corners.

When in Rome do as the Romans do,

a goldbug wherever we find him.
Don't even let him get in for coroner.

This battle is as desperate and we
must push it to the bitterest end.

Powers of Congress.

The great Webster held that the con-
gress had no power to demonetize
either gold or silver. It was a gross

destroy either silver or gold as none v.

said warrant redemption fund.
The one per cent provision meets
the condition Of this county, and in
accordance with it the commissioners
in September levied special tax Of
20 cents on the one hundred dollars
for redemption fund. The fact
that provision was made for such
special tax to redeem old warrants
indicates the legislature expected the
counties to use current revenues for
current expenses; and the fact that
our commissioners levied the tax in
dictates that they so intend to con-
duct Washington county affairs, in
fact they have stated as much.
For the purpose of getting all pos
sible information that might tend to
hold up the price of warrants held
by the public, the SIGNAL Monday
evening wired Attorney General Par
sons at Boise:
Should the regular 95 revenues of the
counties be applied to the redemption of
90 warrants regardless of older issues?
Will you kindly mail opinion by Wednes

reply the next morning:
General Parsons is in Lewiston Will
be absent one week f. a. FEM.
So that was as far as could be gone
this week.

for this year is to not part with them
for less tnan 95 cents on the dollar.
