do the business of the world. IF all the
known silver in the world was coined and
given to our people there would not be
more than sixty dollars per capita. Ger
tainly this would be Of no damage to us.
But would the nations do this? / say
no. Because they could not spare their
silver. What would the nations do for sill
Yer while we had it? Business would at
once be paralyzed in such nations, as the
silver coin is used in the payment of the
small and daily transactions of their peo-
pie.
Again, after such silver was coined,
whose money would it be? The man who
brought it to the mint, what would he do
with it? Carry it to his foreign home?
If so, what would he do with it there?
We must remember money has no value
to the holder only when he parts with it..
If such bullion owner kept the money
in America, it could never affect trade
until he commenced to invest it in prop
erty and in Industrial enterprises This
is the very thing the democrats want We
want industrial enterprises to open up, so
that the millions of idle men may have
profitable work. their children educated
and then homes made comfortable and
property be saleable. ~
Will any sane man contend that any
nation would send it's silver to our mints
to be coined when our ratio is 16 to l and
all Europe's is less than this ratio? Men
of sense don't propose to lose one per cent
on coinage ratio, and in addition pay to
per cent for transportation of their sill
yer to our minis The operation of the
Bland law showed the fallacy Of such
contention of the gold men.
The people of Alabama can't be fooled
by any such performances as are being
carried on by the Palmer-Buckner crowd
We know "bushwhacker" and "horse-
holder" when we see him, and as a fact
showing we spurn "bushwhack ers" and
''horseholders" Alabama will send up
majority of 10000 for Bryan.
After the election we will read in the
papers substantially such an advertise
ment as this:
Lost, Strayed or Stolen"-Two old
dromios that answer to the names Of
Palm and Buck. They did their duty as
well as their feebleness would admit dur
ing the last campaign to elect Mckinley
Since McKinley's defeat, they have been

further use for them, no person will be
prosecuted for harboring them.

The Birmingham nata torium is now

well-known to the sporting world.
The New York Herald has four-col-

feats and diving of Mr.. Balmes. together
with a patented device for learning any

Balmes, 1.-THE trouble with great many

he makes the natural strokes. A few

knowing no other way, when turned

He is now putting UP one Of the trolleys

Mr.. Balmes is quite an Intelligent and

The Corvallis Gazette says:
Lincoln county also gives Tongue
a fair plurality" Let's see about
that. Two years ago Lincoln
county with $50 less voters gave
Hermann 1872 plurality. That
might have been called good, or
extra good. This year with the
increased vote it gives Tongue just
I3 votes plurality. This the Ga
gette calls fair" If that is a
'fair" plurality we would like tc
know what poor one would be.

The Indian Vote.

Ever since election day there has
been more or less talk concerning
the legality of the vote cast by the
Siletz Indians at the recent election.
In this connection it might be we'll
to simply say that the matter of the
citizenship of Indians OH allotted
lands has already been passed upon
by United States district court, in
the decision known as the Bellinger
decision. Judge Bellinger based
his decision in that case upon the
laws of the United States, the Sec
ton applying being Section 6, of
the General Allotment Act, which
says:
THAT upon the completion of
said allotments and the patenting of
the lands to said allottees, each and
every member of the respective
bands or tribes of Indians to whom
the allotments have been made shall
have the benefit of and be subject
to the laws, both civil and criminal,
of the state or territory in which
they may raside; and no state or
territory shall pass or enforce any
law denying any such Indian within
its jurisdiction the equal protection
of the law. And every Indian born
within the territorial limits of the
United States to whom allotments
shall have been made under the
provisions of this Act, or any law or
treaty, and every Indian born with
in the territorial limits of the United
States who has voluntarily taken
up, within said limits, his residence
separate and apart from any tribe of
Indians therein, and has adopted
the habits of civilized life, is hereby
declared to be a citizen of the United
States, and is entitled to all the
, rights, privileges and immunities of
such citizens, whether said Indian
0 has been or not, by birth or other
. wise, member of any tribe of
0 Indians within the territorial limits
of the United States without in any
0 manner impairing or otherwise
. affecting the right of any such
, Indian to tribal or other property" /"
Under the construction of the
0 above law as interpreted by Judge
Bellinger the Indians exercised the
0 right of franchise, which was one
OF the rights guaranteed them. All
8 OF the conditions on their part hav-
ing been fulfilled the state was pro-
0 hibited from Withholding the right
of suffrage. The lands had been
0 allotted, patents had been issued
0 therefor and are of record in the
0 office of the county clerk, and tribal
3 relations had been voluntarily sur
0 rendered. The law of the United
0 States, which no state or territory
5 can contravene. declared and guar
. anteed that they should be "en-
o titled TO all the rights and privileges
" " ofsuch citizens"
10 The further talk that the Indians
" escape taxation is entirely without
20 foundation in fact. The records Of
~ the county show that both the rea
and personal property of the In.
20 dians were assessed last year anc
20 were carried out on the taxroll.

is the only town Of any size
in a radius of 100 miles. A
gentleman from Oregon in
looking over the town this
week remarked that, cit had
more advantages for trade
than any town of it's size that
he had ever seen. In fact it
ought to be several times it's

estimated population of 200O.

Montpelier has arrived to
that point where it can no
longer "hide its lamp under a
bushel. - Some method will
nave to be taken to advertise
its possibilities and the re-
sources of the surrounding
country. It wants new enter
prises and there is a favor
able opening1for these. Par
ticularly we might mention
a creamery, wool securing
plant, cheese factory, etc.
The stock pens need arrang-
ing SO that all of the sheep
and cattle of this section will
be shipped from here. All
these will help the town and
we believe they can be had
with a little rustling on the
part of the citizens.

one member suffers or 10 benefited,
all the members suffer or rejoice
with it. So when Utah comes in
to the Union with everyone free, it
is not only Utah that is benefited
but we and all the world. AS the
stars at night come out one by one,
so will they come out one by one
on our flag. till the whole blue

We expected it of the men of
