After Hanna's Sack Arrived.
On August % the Silver Blade
said this for Silver and BRYAN:

On August % the Silver Blade
said this for Silver and Bryan:
"Ihe Silver Blade always has been and now is
strictly silver paper On the money question
we differ radically with the national republican
party, and as that question is the paramount
issue in the present campaign, we can not sup
port the republican platform. We repudiated
the gold standard principles in these columns
in the issue following the date of The ST. Louis
convention. In the matter of the gold standard
against tariff for revenue only, we take
the stand which all true sincere silver men must
take, which is choosing the lesser OF two evils
and lend our hearty support to Bryan and Sew
all for president and vice president of the
United States"
On October 10, after the Hanna
sack had reached Kootenai county,
the Silver GU Blade endorsed the
following, and is now out against
silver, Bryan and Dubois
eve heartily endorse the republican national
platform adopted at st. Louis Mo-, July Is, 1896,
and the nominees of that convention, Hon. Will
liam Mckinley forpresident, and Hon. Garrett A.
Hobart for vice president of the United States"
awe endorse and adopt the declaration in the
republican national platform relating to the
financial policy OF this government.
BEFORE Hanna's sack reached
Kootenai county the Silver GU
Blade was calling everybody a liar

whom it trained were fighting silver
or Dubois. Anybody was a liar
that said they were for Mcconnell
and gold. 1t parrotted as follows:
els there any fight being made against sill yer in
Kootenai County? Certainly not. Is there any
fight being made against Senator Dubois in
Kootenai County? Certainly not
Now the Blade and its crowd can
say nothing mean enough about
Dubois. 1t is out for the gold
standard. 1t even wants to dis
franchise the silver voters of Koot-
enai county, the men who are foI
Dubois When the Rathdrum ring
republicans were accused of being
for Mcconnell and gold, the charge
was true and the utterances of the
Blade proves it. What miserable
lying sheet the gold bug organ is
The dirty, Safeguarding sheet has
published lie after lie in the pas
three months and all is proven by
its own utterances. The dirty rag
is a disgrace to Rathdrum.

DOWN GOES MCGlNTY
The Political Pettitoggers on the
Tobboggan Slide to Defeat.

The goldbug- Rathdrum-ri n g.
demo pop combinatian in Kootenai
county is growing desperate. They
see the honest voters deserving this
unholy alliance in every precinct.
They see themselves on the tobog-
gan slide of defeat They have
given up all hope of winning on a
fair expression of the voters of
Kootenai county, and now they are
resorting to trickery and petifog-
ging practices,
The first petifogging act Of the
unholy alliance will be to try to
prevent the ELECTORS Democratic"
ticket from being printed upon the
official ballot of this county. The
ground for this is some alleged
technical fault in the petition filed.
That a large majority of the demo-
Gratis of the county want to vote
such ticket is not denied, but the
object is to disfranchise them or
make them vote the silver republi-
can ticket (Which is the same in its
personally.
The next act of these pettifoggers
is to be an attempt to prevent the
names of the Bryan Electors from
appearing at the head of the Silver
Republican ticket. These Demo
pops ask the support of the people
almost, if not entirely, upon the
ground that they are FOR Bryan, SC
lust think of the inconsistency OF
their wishing to prevent the Silver
Republicans from voting for Bryan
by attempting to keep the Bryan
Electors off the Silver Republican
ticket! Does it not look like they
were out for office, and anything tC
get it, rather than for Bryan anC
Silver?
The acts of the Demo-pop leaders
betoken those of an aggregation
that was grasping at the last straw
Their maneuvers have been veal
and childish from start to finish
1t is no wonder that the democrat
are DESERVING the demo-pop combin
by the wholesale, as are many popu
lists as well. This is a year whel
men are throwing party considera
tions aside and preparing to vot
their patriotic impulses. A party
or aggregation, strictly out for tn
coon will not attract many vote;
especially when their purposes ar
as plain as those of the Demo pops

"A crowd of Silver Republicans
and Silver Democrats went out to
Naples last Tuesday evening to at
tend a political meeting. The
meeting was a successful one and
the precinct will give the Silver
Republicans a big majority. They
are for Dubois and Silver. Among
those who went out from here were
Capt. G. r. Gray, Mr.. J. c. Gala

Mr.. Sinclair and Mr.. T. Callahan.

An Intolerable Nuisance.

Protests come from great number
of citizens of this city, of the intolera-
BILE nuisance of ringing doOrbells for
hand bills, most of which, two-thirds
of the people are not interested in.
There is not the slightest advantage
to the advertiser since the bill could be
as readily slipped under the door,
where it would be found by the Occu-
pant of the house if of any interest t"
any member of the household, would
receive the same scrutiny and atten-
ton as if the bell had been rung to call
some one to the door. The practice
has long since been prohibited in the
cities as nuisance, and if it is unnec-
essary for the good of the city it is GER
tainly no less so for smaller town.
Whilst every citizen has not raised a
voice against this practice it is believ-
ed that every one would prefer having
it stopped Certainly very few, if any,
resident of this city, would answer
their bell if they knew before going
that the caller had nothing of more
importance than a hand bill. 1t is to
be hoped that our authorities, who are
ever watchful of the laws of our city,
will give this matter some thought
and furnish it's residents this much
sought relief.

A Thief Shot.

About two weeks ago, the meat
house of William Adams, of. near
Woodsboro', this county, was robbed
of two pieces of meat. Mr.. Adams and
his hired man kept a constant watch
for the return of the burglar, who did
not make his appearance until Thurs
day morning, the 4th inst. About one
O'Clock on that morning, man was
seen making his way toward the meat
house. He tried the lock and then
went to the wood shed, and returned
with the evident intention of forcing
an entrance. There were no lights in the
house and the hired man was at Win
dow commanding a view of the meat
house with a shot gun in readiness.
AS soon as the would-be thiefapproach-
ed the meat house he fired, striking
him in the left lung and hip. He
seemed to be dazed but managed to get
to his brothers, home about one mile
away, where he is lying ill and not eX-
pected to recover The name of the
Unfortunate young man is Irving Ash
baugh, who resides near Hunting
Creek. The brother of the injured man
is said to be very fine gentleman aud
the sad affair is greatly regretted by
his friends.

Mr.. Baumgartner Suicides at Mt.
Pleasant.

The community of Mt. Pleasant,
this county, was thrown into state Of
excitement on Friday afternoon by
the report that Mr.. Henry Baumgart-
ner, a we'll known farmer of that place,
had committed suicide. Mr. Baum
gartner watched an opportunity to Sc
cure the shot gun in the house with
out attracting the attention of any OF
the members of the family, and it is
supposed he placed the muzzle
in his mouth and pushed the trig-
ger with window stick which was
found 10y his side. The report
brought some one to him, but he
died before any assistance could be rem
dered. No definite reason for the rash
act could be given 10y his friends, but
it is presumed that recent attack OF
the grip had so affected his mind that
he was rendered temporarily insane.
Mr.. Baumgartner was ahput 80 years
of age and leaves widow and two
children. He was Il valued citizen and
his loss is greatly deplored by the conf
munity.
