BLAckFooT, IDAHO, MAY ., 1895.

THE situation OF the Idaho Senators
Is somewhat similar to that of the Colo.
RADIO men. Dubois takes the same
view Of the question as Teller, while
Shoup is Flooding along on the lines of
Wolcott. The relations of the Idaho
Senators have not been pleasant for
a year past. They are both from the
same section of Idaho and their polit-
ical interest clashed. Mr.. Shoup is
well advanced in years and wealthy.
He has long been identified with Idaho
and has large mining and commercial
interests in the State. Dubois is a
young man of much strength of char
acter and more than ordinary ability.
He is poor in the worlds goods, but
rich in resources and courage. He is
without doubt the ablest of the young
Republicans in the Senate, and has
done more to break up the oligarchy of
the New England clique that so long
controlled the Republican party in the
Senate, than any man in that body.
Dubois is sincere believer in free
coinage, and, while he aGheres to the
doctrine OF protection, he does not be-
ieve in McKinleyisn or in tariff wall
that would exclude competition. Mr..
Dubois term will expire with this
Congress, while Shoup's term win not
end until March 3, 1901. Dubois is ev-
identity convinced that the people of
Idaho are for free coinage of silver be-
fore anything else, He stands square
ly on Teller's platform; that is to say.
If the Republican party declines to
support the reconciliation of silver. he
will ally himself with any party that
does. These are evidences, however,
that the protective interests have been
getting in their work in Idaho, as we'll
as in Colorado, and that there is fire in
Dubois rear as there is in Teller's.
Idaho. like Colorado, has gold min
ing interests, but there is no doubt
that the white metal predominates in
both States. There is no doubt, too,
that if the st. Louis Convention de-
clares against free silver, and the Chi
cago Convention declares in favor of il,
Dubois will transfer his allegiance from
the Republican to the Democratic par
ty. Whether Dubois can carry his
State with him is another question.
He thinks he can; Shoup thinks not

WASHINGTON, d. G., May 4.-The
sound money men of South Carolina
propose to test Senator Tillman's
power in the State Convention. They
will advocate the adoption Of resolu-
tions against boiling at Chicago. II
these resolutions are defeated and Til
man is elected as delegate, they will
consider that as prima facie evidence
Of an intention to bolt, il necessary.
They will then hold convention and
elect contesting delegation pledged
not to bolt the nominee OF the conven-
tion. A large percentage OF the silver
men of the State are against boiling,
and these, with the old-time opponents
of Tillman, the gold men, may be able
to have the convention adopt non-bolt-
ing resolutions. Senator Irby, State
chairman, is leading the non-bolting
silver men, and believes his faction

Senator Tilman's friends to induce him
not to attend the Chicago Convention.
They argue that his threat OF boiling
have put him in an unenviable posi-
ton

growing fewer as well as poorer in
