The people are not generally

Of the United States is one OF the
most expensive Legislative hodies
in the world. They know that each
Senator has salary of $4,000 a
year, which is certainly nor ex-
travagant; but that stipulated and
reasonable compensation constitutes
only part of the az g,regatr cost OF
the Senate. The expense apart from
salaries, is $4SS3 per member, that
is TO say, with the salary included.
each senator costs the country 50,
1874 per year, or $Ss9,470 for the
ninety senators. In Great Britain
and in Germany the same class OF
officials not only get no salaries hat
have to pay all their incidental ex
p4nses out of their own pockets;

CONVENTION RECALLED
Idaho Silver Republicans Will
Take Action.
Gust POpufi~r Candidates As the
PopuIists and a large Part of the
Democrats are Fighting Them,
p6ey VIII RetaIiate in Kind,

Boise, Ida, Sept 2o.-The silver re-
publican state committee tonight issued
the following call.
Boise, Idaho, Sept 70. 1896.
TIC the delegates of the silver republi-
can convention of Idaqo:-At the con
ven'ion of our party held at Boise City,
August 20, 1896, you were called upon to
lay aside your personal preferences in
the selection of candidates for office
upon you state ticket, and to select rep
Preventative men from the several politi-
cal organizations that were believed to
be earnest in their support of the silver
cause. This you did with that spirit of
true patriotism and devotion that marks
the loyalty of men who are honestly
devoted to principle.
Since then conditions have arisen that
make 1t imperative for the good of the
party that the convention be reconvened
1t isthcrefore ordered that you, the sill
yer republican delegates, again meet in
convention at Boise City, Saturday. Sep
TENDER 20, at II M, for the purpose of
transacting such business as may pro-
perly come before the convention.
By order of the executive committee |
of the silver republican party of Idaho.
MART PATRIE, Chairman.
c. ]. BAssETr, Secretary.
The object of the above is not given
out at committee headquarters, but 1t is
apparently the intention to take off of
he ticket all poPulists and such demo-
Gratis as are opposed to complete fusion
with the silver republicans. The popu-
lists are fighting the silver republicans
n every county in the state while the
masses are largely favorable
o the silver republicans. The with
travail of the populists will hold the full
liver republican vote for Bryan, and
will secure the support of a decided c
majority of the democratic vote for the /
liver republican state ticket when that v
cket is readjusted. When the icket is S
ompleted 1t will undoubtedly be made
p only of silver republicans and those
who are in sympathy with
lem. The silver republicans have -
ade arrangements for daily paper Il
ere the first number of which will APP u u
EAR Tuesday. =
