Some silver leaders in Washington are
not surprised at the course of events in
Idaho where the Populis,s and Demo
crats have fused. leaving silver Repub-
lcans to flock by themselves. One who
has recently returned from the west
says the result b. largely due TO the
course senator Dubois has pursued in
Idaho Instead OF cutting loose from
the Republicans Senator Dubois and
his friends went into the Republican
committee and carried II by one major.
iiy and instead Of organizing as a silver
party or Inviting fusion, maintained
their organ cation as Republican. The
Populists and Democrats claimed that
any Repuh lean organization ought 10
be FOR Mckinley u Il Is claimed there Is
anything Ia the name aud insisted that
Dubois must leave the Republican
party as Teller and Pcttigrew have
done Thors has been a great deal Of
hostility between Dubois aud the other
two parties and the Populists and Dem
ocrats say II they elect Dubois senator

EDfToR EAGLE:
In you daily issue Of the 18th, saw
reported from liillsboro, Texas, the
case Of larmer named Elan, who was
on the eve Of losing bis farm-"the Ia
Dor Of whole lifetime" on account Of
the free silver agitation. The story
goes that be owed q last payment on
bis farm, nov about due, and that on
account Of "short crops" be was unable
Il meet the payment, and on account
Of the aforesaid agitation, unable 10 get
an extension and therefore would lose
his farm" the labor Of a whole life
time" The piece goes on 10 say that
Sir Elam was a sensible man, q gold.
standard advocate aud the best posted
one in the county.
The glldbugs tell Us there Is plenty
OF money in the country, and that any
body can get i, who can give good Sc
curiiy. Elam's case seems 10 eon'rO-
diet that claim. II bis farm represents
the labor of a life time" 1t ought 10
be pretty coed security for that last
''las. payment" especially II be would
give the goldbug ,eamps a new note
payable In gold dollars Of the present
weight and hneness, aud being a stanch
believer In he gold standard himself,
he ought not TO object to giving a note
especially II by doing so he could
save the ''lahor OF whole lifetime. y
Besides, think Il very cruel and heart
less for the goldbugs 10 persecute theiI
brother goldbug Elan, because some
one else Is agitatiug Tree silver. But
want TO ask Elan q question OF two;
II the gold standard Is such glorious
institution, why is It that under that
standard be has labored for a ie.time
aud filled 10 pay for home, and why
l. Il that under gold standard he Is
about b lose his farm when he had
nearly paid Il out''2 I'VE all agree
That We have had the gid standard for
% years; John sherman says We have
had Il about 100 years.
Farmer Elam says he is unable to
meet this last payment on account Of
"short crops and low prices" II the
gold standard is such a grand thing
why is II that even with short crops
prices are - low he cannot live and
meet this small payment
Il seems 10 me that the case Of Elan
is strong authority for the free silvel
people. Il is applicable to their side
and not in point as a goldbag argument
J But itis alter all no weaker than th'
J average goldbus slush. II Is Tor exam
