gates, we're too cowardly to
ratify either Dubois or Alex
Robertson. The inference is
that Governor McConnell's tele-
gram congratulating Mckinley,
represents the Republicans of
this city also.LCaldwell Record.
The view taken by the Boise
Statesman is that free coinage
can be most surely obtained by
electing goldbugs to fill the high
est Offices .-Idaho World.
The Republican is not in a
position this week to either en-
dorse or reject the ticket and
platform that we're put up at st.
Louis last week. In fact like
thousands of Republicans in the
west, we are astride the fence,
in which position we will remain
until after all the national con-
ventions have been held.-Mt.
Home Republican.
Governor Boies lives at Water
loo, Iowa; Governor Mckinley
was nominated for president on
the anniversary of Waterloo, so
there is to be a Waterloo in the
coming campaign for somebody.
-Blackfoot Nes0s.
Keep your eye on the Demo
Gratis. K Times.
The Governor says 1--WE will
vote for Mckinley" He should
have first countermanded his in
structions to the voters of Sho-
shone county to organize a citi-
zen ticket.-Genesee NeaOs.
There are Mckinley men in
Moscow yet, although the Sweet
crowd are doing everything to
force them into the traitors col
nmn. -Moscow Mirror.
The editor of the Bimetallist,
like those who left the conven-
ton hall, has also been a Repub-
lican in principle ave since he
was old enough to think, proud
of the origin of the party, proud
of its achievements and proud of
the great names it has emblazon-
ed in imperishable letters upon
the pages of our country's his
tory. But the glories of Lincoln
and Seward and Chase and Grant
and Garfield and Blaine can
never atone for the shortcomings
of the party in 1896. He cannot
swallow whatever a lot of sub
servient politicians attempt to
put into his mouth merely be-
cause Lincoln Was a grand and
noble character. Lincoln was a
friend of the common people, a
humanitarian ia the truest and
purest sense, but the gold stand
ard is the instrument of despotic
wealth and the oppressor of the
poor. Believing that the cause
of bimetaliism is the cause of
humanity, the most important
issue before the people of this
country, he is left no alternative
but to follow the example of the
illustrious senator from Colorado
and regretfully but firmly say,
good bye.-Bimetallist.
The Statesman has gulped
down it's mess of crow, bones,
feathers, and all. But that sort
OF gormandizing is second nature
TO the Statesman; it would swal-
low the devil head first if there
was a color of gold in his cloven
hoof.-Double Standard.
They we're talking about the
Moscow horror" the other day,
and some one with no fear of the
devil, suggested that this was
the first time he had ever heard
Poker Bill called by that name.
-SilUer Hammer

ton to ST. Louis out of the Re

mitted. Well, we shall see about
that later on. The Statesman is
a companion RATHER to our gold
bug Governor, and both of them
will soon learn that the mass of
the electors of Idaho do not pro-
pose to uphold any man or party
opposed to her paramount inter
est-free silver. -Ceur d'Alene
Miner.
Party should cut no figure
whatever in the campaign, and
the man who advocates voting
the Republican ticket for the
sake of party is a fit subject for
the asylum. Mckinley should
not receive a single vote in the
fair state of Idaho, and if every
county in the state will be as
true to principle as Fremont, his
votes will be mighty scarce
Market Lake Sentinel.
Gold and greed win. McCon-
nell stands pat for pie.-Elmore
Bulletin.
Free silver Republicans here
utterly repudiate Mckinley and
the goldbug platform.-Salmon
Recorder.
While we admire the bravery
of the twenty three silver dele
gates, who bolted the ST. Louis
convention, we cannot help but
renounce their action as unwise
and Improbable, and injurious
to the cause of silver more than
to its Advancement. -Paris Post.
What an interesting time the
Boise citizens will have in at
tempting to read out Of the Re-
publican state convention all the
delegates that will be there ready
to pass resolutions condemning
the national goldbug platform
DeLamar Nugget.
We are not a gutter in the
fight for silver.-Payette hide
pendent.
Let all silver men join hands
and victory is ours. Divide us
into three different organizations
and goldbug Mckinley will be
elected.-SILvER MESSENGER.
Join hands and fight for silver.
-Ketchum Keystone.
If a free coinage bill is passed
during William McKinley's term
as president, he is good enough
silver man to place his signature
upon it, and don't you forget it.
-Lemhi Republic.
So far as our recollection goes
Mckinley is the first presidential
nominee indorsed by the English
press. At last they admit that
they own the Republican party.
Boise Sentinel.
We have it on good authority
that the "Rousing Mckinley
ratification meeting" at Boise last
week of which the Statesman
gives such a glowing account,
was composed of II men and Is
boys. If that is a fair represen-
tation of McKinley's strength in
Boise, God pity him in the rest
of the state. -Emmet Mde0.
We all want to fight for silver
but we want to preserve our or
ganization and fight in party
lines-at least where there is no
division on that subject. Lewis
ton Teller.
The good old man Shoup must
have presented a very lonesome
spectacle sitting alone in the Ida
no seats in the st. Louis conven-
ton, after every delegate had
left those seats at the bidding of
the almost unanimous voice of
the Republicans of the state
Pocatello Tribune.
Senator Shoup will pass

enroute to Boise. He will be
met at the depot we are told by
good strong delegation who will
cheer him to the following.
