rHE DUTY OF THE HOUR.

Men from the beginning of the world
have always differed, and from the
foundation Of this government to the
present time, there have been different
ideas as to how it should be run in or
der that 1t subSorve the best interests
OF the whole people. In this country
rs In most all other countries, different
ideas find expression through parties.
In this country in this election there
are only two great political parties, the
Republican and the Demo Pops. They
are the only parties that have follow.
ing 10 every state in the union, and the
only parties that win have controlling
voice in the national legislature. In
the eastern states the National Demo.
Gratis have quite q following; and In
nearly every state the Prohibitionists
have a sufficient following to nominate
. state ticket But it is reserved for
the great states Of Utah and Idaho to

or silver Democratic ticket. It is not
ticket of national Importance and is
inspired wholly in the interests OF a
few petty politicians, and run BY Lead
ers for personal interests and personal
gain, and it represents no principle Of
government or economies that is not
espoused by other political parties. In

THE REAL CRIME.

Much stock is laid by a series Of
statements made by silver advocates,
called the crime of 1873. Whether it
was a crime or not has nothing to do
particularly with this article. Senator
Stewart and Gordon Clark says it was
a crime; Senator Sherman and Horace
White say it was not. Both sides pre-
sent multitude of statements and
quotations from leading men of that
time as well as from the Congressional
Globe. The burden Of proof as we see
it is on the side Of Sherman and White,
but as we haven't three or four vol.
umes Of the Globe around the office.
we would rather not express an un-
qualified opinion on the matter. But
we hardly think the average reader
cares a continental whether it was
crime or not. There is one thing about
which there is no Question-silVer was
demonetized. And while nearly all
| admit that silver was demOnetized.
there seems to be quite variety of
opinions as to how it should be remon-
etized, and there is quite following to
the thought that it should remain as it
is. In 1878 the silver dollar was sim
ply dropped from the list of coins, but
1t was really demonetized in 1884 when
the ratio of pure gold to pure silver
was changed from 10 to to 16 to /, I'M
derValuing silver. All our silver went
abroad, both bullion and coined. In
1873 when silver was said to have been
demonetized there was less than a mil
lion silver dollars in circulation. In
fact, for over twenty years before 1873
little or no silver was coined at the
mint. So when that crime, so called,
was committed very little money was
affected. But we have a few people
around these parts who think a great
crime was committed, when the truth
of the matter is the worlds production
of silver at the time it was said to have
been demonetized was only $S1, OOO,O 900,
coinage value, while today the United
States alone produces nearly that much
of silver every year, and the worlds
production in 1895 was nearly three
times that amount. But the thing we
want to get at is this: Before 1871
when all the nations of the world, ex-
cept England, were coming silver, if
the change of few grains in the ratio
Of the two metals, caused rush of sill
yer from this to other countries, be.
cause silver was undervalued, then it
seems to us that the generalization of
silver by making the ratio 16 to l, when
none of the nations of the world are
coming it and when the market valua.
ton is 80 to /, would have a tendency
to swamp this country with that metal,
or cause the silver dollar to be taken at
90 cents. If such should be the case,
the crime of 1896 would be l6 to / |
greater than that of 1873, and 81 to 1 |
greater than that of 1884. This would |
be the real crime.

But to our subject. We think the
most rampant coercionlsts in the east
are among the laboring men them
selves. In Chicago recently q number
Of men calling themselves wage earn
ers were gathered before a building,
the windows Of which were full Of
placards announcing meetings called
in order that workingmen may de-
nounce the attempts of employers Co
ereing them into voting for Mckinley.
Many Of the crowd were noisy. and
certainly none of them were being CO.

men usually work in the middle of the
afternoon. At least they did before
the country came under the fun enjoy
ment Of Democratic prosperity. To
one of the noisiest of these passing
workman spoke thus:
"You are not afraid to say you are
for Bryan? Nobody is 'coercing' you
into the talk that / have listened to p
mo, said the Bryanite wage. Garner.
Well, | am for Mckinley; do you
suppose that any one 'coercing' mel"
"Say," roared the Bryanite, "here's
one OF the fellows that the bosses have
hired or frightened into McKinleyism."
When forthwith there was such a
commOtioR that would have BODIED III
for the workman who had dared speak
for Mckinley had a policeman not re-
stored order. Now the honest, truth
seeking man after reading this win
come to the conclusion Immediately,
that the pseudo laborer is about the
worst cOerciOnist the true workman
has to contend with. With this the
coercion business ought to cease. The
fellows who are crying lOudest 'coer-
cionl coercionl" are the fellows who
are trying to coerce, or would like to
try. But they will fail. The best and
largest body Of workmen are with Nc.

coERoIoNIsTs.

One of the stock arguments being
urged BY some Of our learned contem.
poraries is that the laboring men are
being coerced by the big employers in
the east. We think there is a lot OF
rot in all this. Every man be he q
millionaire or workingman can vote
exactly as he pleases, and, unless he
chooses to tell, no one will know how
he votes. But then there are some
men who can not do business very well
unless they can dig up a conspiracy OF
two. 1t is in the air. 1t seems to be
one of the most convincing arguments
that can be produced. A cause can 90
ambling along two OF three years with
no success; tack conspiracy TO it and
it starts out on dead run to success.
The crime of 1873, so called, being des.
ignated as a conspiracy has been the
means of converting more men to the
silver cause and keeping them within
the silver ranks than all the other
statements and arguments that have
been produced for that side, We some.
times think there must be a flaw in
the character of some men, when thew
smell in everything something that
smacks Of conspiracy. We wonder
these men ever sleep for fear they win
wake up in the next world through a
league with hell and a covenant with
Great Britain.

Three men are asking to be sent to
COngress-John T. Morrison, w. E.
Borah and James Gum. Before. he
goes TO the polls on the 5rd day of Nov.
ember, every man in the state ahould
first consider which of the three men
would best represent his interest in
congress during the next two years,
and then vote accordingly. If Ia man
believes in free trade, free wool, free
soup kitchens, and in fact, free trade
generally, or even free raw materials
he should vote for Gum or Borah; it
makes no difference which, both stand
on free trade platforms. But if he be-
lieves that the best interests of Idaho
demand the protection of her infant
industries protection is the best for the
country in general, then he should cast
his vote for John 7. Morrison. Mr..
Morrison is true blue Republican.
He will work and vote to protect the
industries Of the state, and is an able
champion of the silver cause.

IN 1890 few Republican patriots in
congress thinking to help silver, passed
bill known as the Sherman law which
provided "That the secretary of the
treasury is hereby directed to purchase,
from time to time, silver bullion to the
aggregate amount of 100000 ounces,
or 80 much thereof as may be offered
In each month at the market price. I"
This provided for the purchase of all
the silver produced in the United
States at that time and It was thought
that it would permanently enhance the
price. 1t did bring the price Of silver
up to $I.O4 per ounce and then imme.
diately declined in value. That was
only S50I0o00O0 worth of silver a year
1t didn't benefit tho government, but II
helped the mine owner for a time, but
when silver began to decline in value.
they were as anxious as any one else
for its repeal. Now IL silver could not

and Central America, we're open to its
coinage, and the government of the
