RATIFIoATIoN.

Account of grand ratification meet
ing held at Nampa win be found in
this paper. It was broad guage, sin
gularly unconventional demonstration,
calculated to emphasize the sentiment
of Canyon county Republicans with re-
gard to the delegates who bolted the
st. Louis convention. Hon. Alexander
Robertson, one Of the Republican bolt
ing delegation, had just returned home
and it was eminently fitting that his
political friends should receive him
with every manifestation of esteem
and approval. Happily for the sue
cess and proportions of the demonstra-
tration, the exercises were not confined
to the narrow limits of the Republican
party. Indeed, there was a conspicu-
GUS absence of partisan flavor, which,
while it materially Initiated the distinc.
lively Republican character of the
event, gave it compensating quality
in richness of political diversity. The
speakers of the occasion were Messrs.
A. Z. Gipson, L. L. Feltham, @. w.
Cooper, Judge Galloway and John Da.
Wis, j. 9. one Republican, one silver par
ty man, one Democrat and two Popu-
lists. AS may be inferred, it was not
a distinctively Republican ratification,
but it was a ratification and satisfac-
torily unanimous. Nothing that &C.
Cured could be accredited particularly
to one political party or sentiment
more than any of the four in evidence.
therefore, THE TRIBUNE can not Justly
claim for the Republican party all the
honor that attaches to the occasion. 1t
was unquestionably though a pleasant
and successful expression of sentiment
and demonstrated beyond reasonable
doubt that Major Mckinley need not
expect comfort or support from Demo-
Gratis or Populists in Idaho.

abandonment of CONVICTION. In every
line of the judges letter is evidenced
the keen appreciation he has Of the del
icacy Of his position. To wrest Re
publican victory an anti Republic
can campaign is the task he has under
taken, and his letter is intended as a
gloss to cover the paradox and make it
appear not altogether unreasonable. In
effect Judge Sweet declares that the
Republican party has renowned the
paramount issue in politics, yet he
urges nomination of straight Republi-
can state and county tickets. Again
he says, the Republican party has been
cowed, bluffed and bulldozed by east
ern money lenders until it has sac
rificed us upon the altar of their aYar-
ice, and adds: "Let me urge of true
Republicans to stand by the principles
of their party, the chief principles of
which are protection and bimetallism."
This raises tile question, who compose
the Republican party, the 800 who re-
manned in the convention, promulgated
a platform and nominated a national
ticket or the % gentlemen who bolted
and are now lowering about without
platform, candidate or name. Surely
THE TRIBUNE spoke truthfully week
ago when it said, turn wheresoeVer you
win, the prospect affords nothing but
perplexltles. AS time passes on "true
Republicans" will come a very acute
realization of the situation and with
one accord, they will lift up their
voices and pray aloud for Moses to
deliver them out Of the Wilderness.

CONSTITUTIONAL AMEND
MENTS.

There is great danger that the people
of Idaho will utterly overlook consider
alton of three important matters unless
they begin to think pretty soon. AT
the coming election they will be reuuir.
ed to vote on three constitutional
amendments. The first and most i'm.
portant proposition is the enfranchiss-
ment of women; second, providing a
prosecuting attorney for each county,
and third, segregation of the offices of
probate judge and school superintend.
ent. THE TRIBUNE believes that all
these amendments should be adopted
and thinks there is no likelihood Of
failure except through thoughtlessness.
Last election the proposition to segre
gate the offices of probate Judge and
school superintendent failed of adop.
ton simply because two thirds of the
voters did not vote on the amendment
one way or the other. They simply
forgot all about it and it went by de.
fault. That mistake should not be re.
peated and therefore THE TRIBUNE
mentions the matter thus early.

MUSINGS OF BOILERS.

We are apprehensive that the Chi
eago convention is going to upset
our welllaid and very promising
plans. 1t was confidently hoped that
by boiling the st. Louis convention we
would solidify the Republican party in
Idaho, and at the same time draw
largely from Democratic and POpulist
sources. This would insure local Re-
publican success while materially as
sisting in permanent disruption Of the
Populist and Democratic organizations.
Indeed, the intention was to steal all
the political thunder that these parties
could make available. When the plan
was laid, nobody expectad that the ma
tional Democracy would declare for sill
yer, and, therefore, the outlook was al
together bright. AS mischance would
have it, the Democrats are doing the
entirely unexpected thing and thereby
thwarting our laudable design on their
institution in this state. We were
much encouraged at first, as both Dem
Ocrats and Populists fell into the net in
great numbers, which indicated that
they did not in the least suspect our
amiable motive. We really believe
that had the national Democracy pur-
sued that course which we confidently
expected it to, and which it gave every
indication of doing, the plan would
have worked out successfully. Now,
however, the prospect is not so hopeful
and the situation grows perplexing. In
order to maintain respectable appear
ance of sincerity, we will be almost
obliged to join the Democratic party
when the Chicago convention declares
for independent, free and unlimited
coinage of silver at ratio of l6 to l.
We did not provide for such contin-
gency and therefore anxiously hope that
something will turn up by which we
may get out of this unfortunate predie-
ament without appearing positively
ridiculous. We calculated on swallow
ing the Idaho Democracy, not being
swallowing by it, from which it will
readily be seen that the situation is ex-
asperatingly awkward. We almost re-
greet now having put free silver before
protection, because, while it meant moth
ing to us, as both principles are dear to
our hearts, it will be made a great deal
Of by Democrats. We can not see
though, that we are at all blameable
for this miscarriage, as our intentions
were certainly good. Nobody of ordin
airy foresight could anticipate the COM
plete overthrow of CleVeland's admin
tration by the Democratic silver organ.
ization. In one respect, however, there
was oversight on our part, we did not
give sufficient weight to the fact that
the Democratic party had nothing on
Gods earth to stand upon unless they
put down a free silver plank. We
ought to have weighed that matter
more carefully. However, we came
within an ace of capturing both the
Democrats and POpulists of this state
and though the scheme failed, we have
learned how delightfully."- susceptible
they are. Well, politics is uncertain.
and you can't expect to take every
trick. All, mel it's weary world.

THE DEMOCRAT CONVENTION

All the delegates to the Democratic
national convention have been elected
and there is no longer any doubt of the
overwhelming supremacy Of the silver
men. Indeed, the Democratic conyen.
ton will be about as strongly domi-
mated by silver sentiment as was the
Republican convention by sound mon
ey sentiment. THE TRIBUNE will not
attempt to conceal the pleasure it feels
in contemplation of the present out
look. We believe there is now fair
prospect of testing and determining
the sentiment of the American people
on the silver question. The Democrats
will probably put a pronounced silver
candidate in the field on a straight is
to platform and this will bring the
silver question sharply to the front.
There was until quite recently serious
danger that the administration would
be able to exert sufficient influence to
turn the tide of silver sentiment and
force a compromise, but it now seems
that that danger has been averted and
