The silver messenger. (Challis, Idaho) 1890-1912, 1896-11-17

The unofficial returns of Idaho
indicate that Bryan has received
a majority of nearly $4,000, while
Steunenberg, for Governor, is
not far behind. Every man on
the Peoples -Democratic state
ticket is elected by from 1000 to
5000 plurality. The race between
Gum and Borah for congress
was much closer, owing TO the
bitter A. p. A. fight against
Gum, but he is safe by over
1000 plurality. The complexion
of the next legislature stands as
follows

from conviction, and have fought
with all the zeal which convic-
ton inspires. Events will prove
whether they are right or wrong
having done their duty as they
saw it, they have nothing to re-

The Republican candidate has
been heralded as the advance
agent of prosperity. If his poll
cies bring real prosperity to the
American people, those who op-
posed him will share in that
prosperity. If, on the other
hand, his policies prove injurious
to the people generally, those
supporters who do not belong
to the office-holding class or to
the privileged class will suffer in
common with those who opposed
him.
Friends of himetallism have
not been vanquished; they simply
have been overcome. The bel

spiracy of money changers
against the welfare of human
rights, and until convinced Of
their error they will continue
their warfare against it.
The contest this year has been
waged under great embarrass.
ments and against great odds,
For the first time during this
generation public attention has
been conferred upon the money
question as the paramount issue,
and this has been done in spite
of all attempts upon the part OF
our opponents to prevent it. The
Republican convention held out
the delusive hope of Information

publican leaders labored secretly
for gold recommendation. Gold

employers; in spite of trusts and
syndicates; in spite of an enor,

and in spite of the influence of 8

has almost triumphed in its frs

Vital Importance was attached to the uni
form a hundred years OF so ago, for the
records of the company for 1872 sole1nlll9
assert THE members OF the company met
to consider some method to raise the spirit
and reputation Of the company and keep
up the honor they have so long sustained
After mature deliberatlon and discussion
it seems that the surest method to bring
about these praiseworthy resuss was -
change the uniform. and 1t was voted tnas
the new uniform should be "bluo coats a--
lapels, with yellow buttons. 1e cock =
the bat 70 be uniform with mlliLlA oalo=l77
wigs and hair to be dubbed
Two yeans previous to this solemn order
was sent out providing that every mem
Der of this company must provide himself
with a pair Of white linen sp-atteraas-.ea
against the next Artillery election day, the
buttons to be white and the straps OF knee
bands black %
It Is almost a pity that there Is no record
of the punishment inflicted upon the Ancient
who appeared on that occasion without his
white linen splatterdashes, or or Wnar nap
pened to the soldier who reversed the col2la
and appeared with black buttons and Waite
knee-bands.

taking It that Professor J. DusQuene lived,

School.
The professor was not only a Frenchman.
he was a Partisan. and a Partisan in mighty
hard luck He gave the first two items OF
Information in splendid English and the
visitor guessed the third. To let the profess
sor down easy at the start. the caller frankly
stated that he was not to be considered in
the light Of a prospective pupil. that he was
not politician. and that ne was candidate
only for an ambition to maintain a weekly
