v volune ".

This number begins the fifth volume
of the NUGGET. It Is with no small de-
gree OF pride that we claim that the pa
per has always faithfully represented
the best interests of Idaho and of Owy-
hee county especially, and we believe
has merited the liberal support which
has been given it by mine owners and
business men. 1t has faithfully repre-
sented their best interests and proposes
to continne to do so. It's accounts of
the Owyhee mines have always been
carefully written, and what itmay have
lacked Of giving faithful reports from
all the districts has been due more to
the want of interest in such matters
from mine and claim owners or their
neglect to give us correct reports. The
NUeeET has by its course made some en-
emies, but never one Intentionally that
was worth calling friend. Because 1T
has been free in its method of showing
up the tough element which has given
one section of our town a very unen-
yiable character, it has been supported
in so doing by the better people and
gained the ill-will of the to9ghs. The
businessmen in that end of town are
are beginning TO see that we have been
right and we tender them our advice
that the sooner they take measures to
rid their places of number Of charac-
.ters infestiDg them the better they will
be off.
One boast OF the NUGeEr is that dur
ing the four years of ito existence has
not nauseated it's readers with patent
medicine or fake ads.
We have, this week, sent out stack
Of notices, asking delinquent supscrib-
ers to pay up. We have on our books
numbers of names of men interested in
mines aud properties in this county
which has been faithfully represented
by the paper and for which the owners
csc much to the good We have done
them in the way of advertising their
properties but have neglected to pay up
even the small amount oftheirsubscrip-
tions. They should respond promptly
to our civil reminder that q paper can
not be run on their commend ations
alone.

In the Governors circular letter, pub
lished in this issue, he suggests that
contributions in aid of the campaign of
education should be made by every
voter in the state, and that all news
papers should receive such contribu-
tions aud forward them to the State
Treasurer, who has been suggested as
custodian. In compliance with this
suggestion the NUGGET will receive con-
tributions and publish, weekly, the
amount received and forwarded to-
gether with the names of the contribu-
tors. But knowing from experience the
apathy of the people here toward form
ing club to aid in the cause of free
coinage, we will leave such an effort to
other persons, simply offering to pub
lish such announcements and informa-
ton as may be required.
DeLamar should make larger con-
tribution than any other place ofits
size in the state to aid the cause of sill
yer and meeting should be called and
club formed for that purpose. There
is not miner employed here who can
not afford to make a contribution which
snould not be less than one dollar and
every man in town can contribute
something. Pride in our camp should
be our incentive, but direct personal
Interest a greater one.
One copy of Coins Financial School
placed in the hands OF the proper per-
son in the goldbug stronghold should
make at least one silver vote and may
serve to convert whole neighborhocd.
Twenty-Five cents in the hands Of the
Silver League would be used for this
purpose or for some purpose in the in
terest of the cause.

At the risk of being called moss
back, the NUeeET must enter its protest
against the efforts of Governor Nc
Conneli and Chicago spectators to
locate colony of Bohemians in South
ern Idaho. We will always be found
ready to encourage the settle
ment of English speaking COM
munities in the state and ready to well
come any honest and industrious for
eigners, but we never want to see them
come here and settle in communities
where they will keep up their foreign
customs and habits; and in fact, thers
being SO many desirable Americans in
the east now looking this way to secure
homes we prefer to see all Of Idaho's
splendid lands occupied by Americans,
and her boundless resources developed
by people who have grown up and
educated under American laws and Gus
toms. Desirable lands are not so abun-
dant in America that we can afford to
encourage all the world to come and
occupy them. Germans, Irish and
English all make good and patriotic
Americans in time, but the writer can
point out town in old and rich Mis-
souri, where only few years ago row
was stirred up over the question Of per-
mitting the English language to be
taught in the public schools. America
for Americans, and Americans for
Idaho, is our motto.

On our inside page We publish cir
cular letter from Governor Mcconnell,
in reference to the silver conference to
be held in Salt Lake on the 10Th inst.
The object Of this conference is to de-
wise means to further and assist the
campaign of education now going on in
the east, upon the question Of free coin
age. 1t is now only a year until the
delegates to the great national conven-
tion will be chosen and the goldbugs
will, and are already, beginning to exert
their energies to control both of
those conventions in the same man
ner they did them two years ago. They
have the money and the influence of
the subsidized press to back them and
the only course the friends of free coin
age can employ to defeat them ia to
show the people how the money kings
of the world are trying to enslave them.
To do this vast amount of money will
have to be raised to be used in circulat-
ing educational literature. This money
must be raised by asking every friend
of free coinage to contribute his amount
to the fund. The purpose of the Salt
Lake conference is to effect an organic
aticn to collect this money and place it
in the hands of an organization to
use it.

While the NUGGET force, individually
and collectively, are decidedly OF Re-
publican proclivities, we want it dis
tinctly understood that we are uncom-
promisingiy free silver, at the ratio Of
16 to 1, frst. and we have no hesitation
in saying that we will pocket our poll
tics, for the time being, and support
any party that will, unequivocally, de-
clare for free coinsge. As the mariner
trying to make port IN storm lays
seide all preference and khinks only OF
safety. so we, in the present financial
eruption and disaster, seek the pro-
lection of that party which will give
the country relief and prosperity by de-
cIaring for free silver, bs they kepubit-
cans, Democrats or what not, and there
are thousands Of others in the same
position.

Two of the most harmless old blather-
sixties in the Senate are Senators Palm
er and Vorhees. Palmer was repub-
lican inst at the time he ought to have
beeu democrat and vice versa, and
now be lie an arrant goIdbug when an
Illinois democratic convention isalmost
sure to declare the party in that state
in favor of the free coinage of silver.
Vorhees was free coinage advocate
until he sold himself to Cleveland for
patronage. Now be has declared him
self free coinage man again because
be wants to be reelected year from
now and has had his ear close to Indi-
ana ground recently. 1t don't matter
much what be lie.

The goIdbugs are now giving defini-
tions for ths words "bimetalist," "free
silver" ''free coinage," etc. They as
sert that the free coinage of silver in
this country simply means silver mono
metalism. Admit that it does mean
only that, putting this country on ash
yer basis alone would mean placing it
in position to command the trade OF
Mexico and all the other American re-
publics, China and Japan and to bring
the single standard gold countries to
terms forthwith. But free coinage of
silver in the United States does not
mean Silver monometalism. 1t meane
bringing silver in the briefest time up
to parity with gold and bringing the
entire commercial world back to the
double standard which it departed from
when the great crime of 1873 was per-
petrated.

A CONCILIATOR.
Uncle Sam as a Peace Maker is Re.
garded as Invulnerable.

The Bible says "Blessed are the
peace makers for they shall see
God" The United States, since
the foundation OF the Government
has acted according to the above
Scriptural injunction, on several oc-
cassions, not only between other ma
tions, but has taken the pacific side
in its own affairs, ana while it has
not exactly shown the white fea-
ther," on several occasions, it did
not display red one the becoming
color that the time or times de-
manded. This being known of all
nations, it is not strange that for
eign countries who have a griev-
ance, one with the other, of which
nature does not call for a resort to
arms, should call on our Uncle Sam
to have say as to how the difficult
ty should be settled.
The United States has again been
asked to act as mediator in an in
ternational complication. This
time the trouble is between France
and Venezuela, resulting in COM
plete termination OF diplomatic rela-
tions between them. The French
Minister at Caracas recently was
given his passport, whereupon
France sent two warships to take
away her minister and all the lega-
tion archives. At the same time
France handed to the Venezuelan
minister at Paris his passports and
he summarily departed,
The request for the meditation of
the United States is now made by
the Venezuelan Government
through its Minister at Washing
ton, Senor Andrade. He was in
structed by the Venezuelan Min
ister Of Foreign Affairs a short
while ago to request that the Unit
ed States Ambassador at Paris, Mr..
Eustis, be asked to act as interme-
diary in restoring friendly relations
between the two countries. The
United States legation at Caracas
was also notified of the desire Of
the Venezuelan Government and
sent recommendation to the State
Department that the Office of in
termediary be accepted. Depart
ment officials will not discuss the
subject aud it cannot be learned
whether instructions have yet been
sent to Ambassador Eustis.
