munidcent salaries, the money OF the
people is to pay. We admonish the
people to beware at this time and
make no mistake. Whether Populists,

still Americans and as sure as God

of any error their ballots may make.

HEADQUARTERS.

Few people who visit the Republican
Headquarters at Boise realize the mag
nitude Of the work that is being con-
Quoted there. When it is understood
that between Eve and six tons Of litera-
ture has been sent out and between
four and five hundred letters written
every day, one may get some coneep.
ton of the work. And all this goes on
as quietly and orderly as q country post
office. The postage bill alone is be-
tween $50 and $40 per day. To the
genius, business habit and industry Of
Hon. Jos. Perrault the smooth working
of this political institution is due. Mr..
Perrault is at his post at 2 o'clock a. m.
and never leaves until 10 or II p. m.
Without any buster or noise he directs
the forces hither and thither. All
move with promptness and percision
that suggests machinery. Mr.. Perrault
is perhaps today the hardest worked
man in the state, but he rarely ever is
so busy and tired as to fail to greet
a visitor with a smile and hearty
handshake. Mr.. Perrault has been un.
usually wise in the selection of his
lieutenants. Col. IrYin, as secretary,
could not be excelled. He has a par.
ticular genius for organization and
methodizlng. With tho colonel things
must be just 80 and if they are not so
he will make them so. The coloneps
other duties have, however, been such
as to render 1t impossible for him to
give his entire services to the party,
hence Mr.. Frank Fem has been select
ed to do active work instead of the
colonel, And Mr.. Fem is simply an
ideal man in the place. He can work
1S hours day without batting an eye,
and during all the time he can be just
as affable and pleasant as anyone could
wish. Joe Beal looks after the speak.
ers schedules and sees to It that every
man is in the right place at the right
time. Mr.. A. A. Richards is in the
general clerical department, as also is
young John Gray. But we do not de-
sire to make a news item of this. Our
idea was to say, and give to it THE
TRIBUNE's authority, that the Republi-
can campaign is being conducted in
manner this year, it never before was.
MIR. Perrault has reduced it down to
business proposition; he has accom-.
plished complete aud thorough organ
ization on business principles, and &C.
accomplished work the good effects of
which will be felt for years to come.

SILVER AMI COMMERCE.
How Free Coinage Would IucOmmSde
Our Foreign Trade.

One of the first and most disastrous
effects ola change of the standard of
value in this country from gold to sill
yer would be the dislocatiOn Of our for
eign trade. Every merchant under
stands, thrOugh.itlS probable that thou
sands of his fellow. citizens do not,
that all trade done between nations
that are on silver basis is subject
to an enormous fine in in the shape of
losses incurred by reason Of the fluctu-
ations in rate of exchange.
Merchants understand and they
should now take the trouble to explain

will have any effept of all in Liverpool

What then would happen in shipping

ONE WORD TO DELEGATES,

Before another issue OF THE TRIB.
UNE comes out the Republican conven.
ton will have been held at Payett6.
We would like to say to the dele.
gates Of that convention that above
all they must put up as candidates
the very best material that can
be found among all the Republican
party in the county. Because the
chances OF success are meagre, they
must not slight the work. They must
show to. the people what kind Of men
the Republican party proposes to util-
re for office. They must make the
people understand that at all times
and under all conditions it is safe ana
wise To trust their affairs to the Repub-
lican party. Therefore we urge that
the standing of the candidates be made
just as high as though success were
assured. We trust this will be looked
to and that the general conduct of the
convention will be above reproach.

WHAT at first seemed only q mild
kick against Frank Steunenberg, as
candidate for governor, is developing
into a roar that portends disaster. This
roar emanatos from Democrats entire.
~ and IL continued will no doubt work
Mr.. SteunenDerg's defeat. In Boise it
is heard on every hand, and the only
Democratic paper there win probably
openly oppose him. Up at Nampa the
entire populace seems to be armed
against him and In his own town the
feeling seems to be so bitter in certain
quarters that it ID highly probable he
win be unable to carry it. 1t is alleged
that Dir. Steunenberg took an active
part in the county convention, and
manipulated It wholly for the benefit
Of certain personal friends. The can
didates who did not enjoy Mr.. Steun.
enberg's especial friendship are all out
kicking. They swear they viii neither
support him nor the county ticket put
up under his dlctatIon. The life Of a
candidate is anything but perennial
joy as our townaman will no doubt
soon discover.

Mckinley SURE.

If there be anything certain in the
political future, it is that WIN. Nc.
Kinley will be the next president of
these United States. From every d.
rection come reports of increasing fav-
orable sentiment. The workingmen
are organizing; the farmers are organ.
izing; the merchants are organizing:
the professional men are organizing,
and even the wheelmen are organizing
and all for Mckinley. Bryan's boom
shot upward, at Chicago, like a rocket,
1t has been coming down in sticks and
ashes ever since. 1t is good to feel as.
sured of the election of a Republican
president. We have all gone through
so much woe and misery during the
past three years, that it fills us with
rest and comfort to know the end is so
near and that good old Republican
times are on the threshold. But above
all 1t is eternally right that the Repub.
lican party should once again come in-
to power. 1t is the only party which
has demonstrated a capacity to run
this government; it is the only party
with a defined and agreed policy; In
short, it is the only party in the coun.
try. There is no Democratic party;
there is no Populist party. They have
swallowed each other up and the good
lord only knows which is on the out.
side. But Mckinley viii be elected
