Boise Wednesday morning and va
received with the grandest ovatio
that was ever rendered any publ
man in the state of Idaho. Nj
Dubois was met at Nampa BY q Re
ception committee headed By ]. b
Hawley and David Heron. Their
the Silver City band boarded tn
train, together with = large numbe
OF people from the different town
near by.
When the train arrived 1t tb,
Boise depot there was large Grove
waiting and when the train came e
. stop the crowd sent ND thre,
hearty cheers and waved their hat,
in an ecstacy of enthusiasm.
Senator Dubois and Congressman
Wilson were escorted to q carriage
by the committee and rode in the
procession behind the Silver City
band.
The reception Was rendered like
wise to the delegates of the Repub.
lican, Democratic and Populist
conventions.
The evenings train brought in
hundreds of visitors. A large pro-
cession was formed and marched
through town, bringing up at the
court house yard, whore tho speak
ing was held. Afterwards there was
q grand torchlight procession.
Among the transparencies carried
in line were the following: who's
in the S(h)oup?" Hanna pus the
kettle on, Mckinley wants tea I"
Money can't buy the people :"
"Silver has no politics this year."
William Bryan, the idol of the
people," "Palouse Bill will now
lay still" For the special benefit
of the Statesman a youth stood in
front of the Statesman office hold
ing up q transparency bearing on
one side the picture Of . man turn
ing a somersault, and on the other
side the words, "Subslded newspa-
pers cut no ice."
Senator Dubois and Congressman
Wilson both addressed the people
at the court house. Dubois, in the
course of his speech, said: ut is
not necessary for me to join the
Democratic party, nor do I intend
to do SO; but 50 long as the Re-
publican party advocates the single
gold standard just 80 long will
refuse that party my support, but
will give my adhesion to those ma
tional candidates who most truly |
represent the free coinage of silver"
Congressman Wilson said in part i
1.-THE Republican party, for the
first time in its history, has declared
against the free coinage of silver
and in favor of the single gold
standard. l believe such q system |
as it proposes means constantly |
falling prices for everything which |
labor produces. / believe it means

Some of our worthy contemporaries
who have been ridiculing Senator Dubois
have suddenly quit poking fun ut Fred
Wonder if that manifesto shut 'em upl-
KeystOns.
Freddy u good on manifestoes. Now
let him issue that manifesto of his giving
his reason why the Populist party is not
y silver party, and why he can never atfil-
late with it.-Neses Asnsr.
It's not q fitting time to cavil
about party affiliations. 1t matters
not what reflection Mr.. Dubois has
cast upon the Populist party in the
past; there are men in our own
community who were, and are now
for that matter, antagonistic to the
Populist party, but are to-day good
silver men. The silver cause knows
no party lines. Its leaders are q
band of patriots who have enlisted
for the great financial battle in re.
spouse to the appeal of the op.
pressed and suffering masses. Fred
T. Dubois had the courage to repu.
date the Republican party because
that party repudiated the people at
the National convention. Every
friend of silver in Idaho or any
other State should applaud Mr..
Dubois for his honorable course
and the sacrifice which he made
when he left his own party to enlist
in the great army of patriots who
will march forth on the ides of No.
vember to pour shot and shell into
the ranks of the goldbug tyrants
and free the white slaves Of the
country from the letters of poverty
and want, which are thousand.
fold more CALLING than those chains
which bound the black slaves Of
the South.
We say all honor to Idaho's Sen
ator. He is a patriot and cham.
pion of the peoples cause. The
was all right and so is
Mr.. Dubois.
