IT,. Is no time ior the people to lG7:
slider the personal ambitions of Tom
Watson or any other man who places
his own success above the great issue OF
free silver. Watson is showing himself
TO lie demagogue instead of states

Sewall, demanding his withdraw al from
the ticket, are simply disgusting to the

God, Gold and the Missionary in Poll
ties.
The following communication shows
the depths to which the Mckinley po-
litical managers will drag the christian
religion in the interest Of gold. Minis
tiers who think more of their job than
the religion they preach are easily con-
yer ed to the gold standard, as was the
poor, hylo teal mortal to whom the
communication refers. Such men are
religious frauds and when enc of them
attempts to preach politics to his

of the church without ceremony:
BONNER'S FERRY, Oct. :, 1896
EDITOR PRESS:
AprOpos the publication in your last
issue of the appeal from the Mckinley
managers of the east to the Idaho
clergy, the following incident ma. not
be without interest:
| had occasion some weeks since to
travel through the southern part OF our
state. As the train pulled out of Walla
Walla clerical looking gentleman
entered the car and happened to take a
seat next to the one occupied. We
soon fell into conversation, which grad
ually took political turn. The good
man OF the cloth said lie had always
voted the democratic ticket, but this
year he would cast ballot for Mr. Me
kinley. He gave as his reason for this
change that he believed in the gold
standard. | expressed surprised that
any western man should take the posi-
ton he occupied on the money issue.
He thereupon admitted he had been,
before the nomination Of the two can
didates for president, of different
mind on the money question, but had
come to the conclusion that the eastern
capitalists knew more about it than the
people of the west, and in Difference TO
}lsir financial Judgment he had yielded
his own vnws. lie then showed me a
letter from one Of the home missionary
societies advising him to support Ne
hlnley and Hobart, a. the representa-
tiyes of sound money. The 'fStttt5T 'weffl
on to advise this missionary that the
success of free silver would destroy
business confidence in the east and this
in turn would lead to the curtailment
Of the missionary fund. The effect of
this. the minister naturally assumed,
would be the loss of his job and the
cessation of the work Of civilizing the
people Of the west.
When had read the letter and re-
turned it he carefully folded it up and
restored it to his valise as if it were an
inspired document on some grave
religious or moral question. In the
face Of that letter said he, how can
any GOdfearing lover Of Jesus fail to
vote for Mckinley? ?" | dare say the
pious fool prays nightly for the CONVEX
sion of all the friends of silver

or even farms. These towns live and
grow on the most Elusive and unstable Of
foundations. They are built on hope
and live on an expectation. Their hopes
have been realized in measure past
dreaming or expression. Their expecta-
lions may collapse in night The very
foundation beneath the houses is shifty
and unstable. The gas mains bend and
snap under ground, for the very noun
tains groan and travail because of the
greed of men, Some day the town will
sink into the grave that lies so deep be-
meath its streets and the people will flee
away to safer lands, leaving hotels, halls
and dwellings empty in the wilderness.

gineering. this gigantic capital spent in

strange how, before certain buttons

STOP IT.

There is one thing that must be
stopped. Every man of decent SEN
sibilities in Weiser should make n
roar against the dumping of garbage
and other truck all along the river
bank near the depot. We have n
lovely river. Not only is it magnetic
to draw the visiting stranger out
there for short stroll but we who
live here sometimes desire to wander
where the ripping waters flow. If
that can be done only when armed
with set of patent nostril suffers,
the romance is all gone The river
front is no fit depository for the scav-
enger. 1t must be stopped and the
people of this town must see that it
is stopped, and that what is there
now is soon cleaned of. 1t is not
only nasty but it is damagingly dis
graceful to Weser's good name
Travellers have a little way of 'shoot-
ing their mouth Off about the places
they visited and no compliments are
paid where they are not deserved.

THE DAY OF REMEMBERING.

Blessed be the days of peace, of
love and of remembering. Such a
blessed day was last Saturday when
the songs of the spheres came little
nearer to every Weiser ear and each
one felt little easier for the blissful
suspense from the cold and ceaseless
grind of the world. The leveling in
licences of Memorial Day make all
alike, both high and low, and Yields
bond between great and small,
gives birth to a harmonious chord
between the bullet scorched soldier
who score Of times felt the very
breath of hell and the springing scion
who knows naught of battle din save
in his dreamy mind One year ago

on the hill near Weiser to decorate
ms there were last Saturday, but we
believe there was but one more old
soldier, Mr.. Ross But while only
one more here has joined the bivouac
OF the dead, yet over the great ma
ton they wrought out of chaos many
and many are the last tattoos that
have been beaten since one year ago.
Those who babe defiance to the bullets
and sabres of the foe cannot defy the
great and grim reaper, and as each
