The dispatches inform us that
the Republicans of California in
their state convention most en-
Enthusiastically indorsed Mckinley
for the presidency, and just as
enthusiastically demanded the
free coinage of silver at 16 to 1.
We happen to know the silver
sentiment is very strong among
California Republicans. In fact
that the people of the great
golden state of the Union in all
parties are overwhelmingly for
the restoration of silver. There
is no good reason to doubt the
bona fides of the most of those
who made this declaration in
favor of the white metal. But
their consistency is open to very
serious question. While they are
demanding free silver and Nc
Kinley. Vermont is demanding
the gold standard and Mckinley.
Hence the query Where does
Mckinley himself stand upon a
question that is bound to be
practically the sole issue in the
campaign of 1896 ? The Cali
fornia Republicans must certain
ly know that they cannot pos
sibly get their 16 to 1 with Nc
Kinley as the candidate. 1t is
absolutely certain that he can
not even be nominated upon such
platform. 1t is doubtful if he
can secure the nomination on
anything short of an out and out
gold standard declaration. If
anything at all be said ;'bout
bimetallism it will be a mere pla-
titude of the most general and in
definite character. Not only
this, but it is morally certain
that Mckinley will not get the
support of the Republican lead
ers of the eastern states after he
is nominated unless it be upon
the most positive assurance that
he will resist the 16 to 1 propo-
sition by every means in his
power. He voted squarely
against free coinage in the 51st
Congress, opposed it in open
house and in caucus, and he has
never uttered a word since from
which it can be inferred that his
liking for the free coinage idea
has grown any stronger. Nat

up in ignorance, to be influenced
even controlled-by the super
ior learning of those who had
been reared in creed and craft.
We fear for the safety of our
country under such an arrange
ment. The one is ignorance and
the other is very likely to ma
ture into tyranny. Let our
children be educated in a common
brotherhood in favor of univer-
sal freedom at the common
schools in the English language,
in mathematics in the history of
our country; in poetry and the
arts and sciences; and it will be
well with America. Otherwise,
we fear ignorance, superstition
and crime will reign. Never
trust to a division of the com
mon school fund. 1t would prove
a ruinous experiment.
Spring is coming on very slow
ly. 1t rains and SHOWS alternate
ly almost every day, and we can
see that the mountains in view
are crowned with heavier bodies
of snow than at the commence
ment of Spring.
District court adjourned from
Friday until Tuesday. There is
quite a little docket. One case
of larceny was tried against W.
G. Roberts, verdict not guilty.
There was no proof to convict
the defendant with the crime

gold dust stolen. They have IA
in Jail but it seems doubtful if
much comes of it. Theiving
seems to be the rage, if charges
are true. And there are more
tramps than you can think of.

Republican Convention.

The Idaho Republican conven-
ton which met at Pocatello on
the 10th was in the control of
the Dubois men by a large maj
GRITTY from the start to the finish.
After stormy session the fol-
lowing resolutions were adopted;
Whereas, The Republican Ma
tional convention of 1888 declar-
ed in favor of gold and silver as
the standard money of the Unit
ed States, and condemned the
action of the Democratic party
it's efforts in attempting to de-
monetize silver; and
Whereas, The Republican
National convention of 1892 sub
stantially reiterated the declara-
ton of 1888; and
Whereas, The question of
crystallizing into law the utter
ances of the last two conventions
named, and of every utterance
heretofore made by the Republi-
can party of this State, recently
arose in the United States Senate;
and
Whereas, Senators Henry M.
Teller, Fred IT, Dubois, Thomas
II. Carter, Lee Mantle and Frank
Cannon demanded the enforce
ment of said platform and utter
ances under conditions known to
Resolved, That we heartily in
dorse the action of Senator Du-
bois in joining with his associa-
ties named in behalf of the free
coinage of silver, protection to
American industry and recipro-
city, one and inseparable."
And be it further resolved,
acting under the necessity of the
trade conditions of our coast, we
earnestly present to our fellow
Republicans of the East the fact
that great commercial possibilit-
les are within the grasp of the
people of the United States if we
can but utilize the markets of
China and Japan, which now
open their doors to us, and which
we can fully control if placed in
a position to accept the only
money with which they have to
purchase our products. This
new condition strengthens our
demand for the resolution that
the United States, independent
of any other nation on earth, i'm
mediately reinstate silver to all
its rights, powers and privileges
as money at the rate of 16 to L."
The platform declares in favor
of protection and reciprocity as
being especially needful to the
industrial life of Idaho, and en-
phasizes the necessity of a duty
on wool and lead. 1t closes with

Shoshone, MoA II, 1896.

Last Saturday, the people of
Shoshone took trip to Hager-
man. The Republican county
convention was held at that place
to choose delegates to the State
convention to nominate, or, rath
err, elect delegates to st. Louis.
1t resulted in the election of Lit.
Gov. Bierbower, Jas. Fuller, DR..
Ball, w. w. Priestly and Frank
Gooding. This squints little
towards wool and Mcconnell
against Dubois, probably; al
though some of our Republican
friends advise us that that is not
in the issue really; but some 9th
or man with Dubois. The poll
tics, however, of this part of the
country seems to be, as it is in
Pocatello, largely colored with
American Protective Associa-
ton thoughts. We were greatly
surprised to find this so all alb
sorbing-everybody seems to
have a word of praise or de-
nunciation of these peoples
views. They claim to be Ameri-
can in their theories. That is
good. They claim to believe in
no division of our common school
fund; that is good; they claim to
believe in no interference of
State by Church; that is good.
What else they may believe in,
if anything, is unknown to us,
and, of course we cannot express
an opinion. However, we sup
pose, as matter of course, as
do all other orders and churches,
they prefer in civil and political
affairs-all things being equal
their brethren to those who are
not with them. We would have
to know some of their vicious
tenents before we could denounce
them; and we know no more of
their good properties than those
we have named above. We be-
lieve in keeping strictly in the
line of good faith toward all
those we have welcomed to our
shores; but we are equally of the
opinion that our welcome has
been too large in that line; that
our citizenship has been and is
being lowered from the excess
of our desire for numbers. We
had better pause. In short, we
are strictly Americans. For
higher-a nobler citizenship and
civilization for America instead
OF doing what will make us a
superstitious, bigoted and de-
graded people. And we are UNI
willing to leave the question of
schools without a word of ex-
PLANTATION. Our common school
fund is raised to enable the child
rem of America to have o suffi-
Gent amount of learning to en-
able them one and all, to become
efficient members of society, and
to enable them, farther, to under
stand the principles of a Repub-
hcan and Democratic form of
government-and to go thereby.
Now, if the Hebrew can divert
per cent. of this fund to his es-
pecial use, why not the Metho-
dist, being more numerous or
ganization, divert twenty five
per cent. to his use; and the Bap-
list seven per cent. and the
Catholic twenty per cent. and
the Presbyterian eight per cent.
In all this seventy per cent. of
our great fund is absorbed; but
the remaining fund through
which the thirty per cent. of the
citizens of all other denomina-
tons, as well as those who have
no religious faith, are left with
moderate means for the educa-
ton of their children. This
would leave perhaps more than
the per cent. suggested to grow

THE PROPERTY MAY BE SOLD.
Decision Of Appellate Court in Pierce
Heirs Controversy.

The decision OF the Appellate Court In
the case OF James A. Tifnay ct al. vs..
Philip A. Munroe ct al. was held today.
The opinion was written by Mr.. Justice
Stiness and Is to the effect that the trus-
tees under the will of the late Lyman
Pierce of this city may dispose OF the
principal of the estate to carry out the
trusts appointed by the will.
Lyman Pierce died in 1891 and he left
considerable property, some of which he
disposed of by legscies of religious and
ftmily nature and the remainder he d.
rected should be KEEP. 10y his trustees in
tact as long as possible and from the IN
come of the same there should be paid
certain sums to his wife and daughter
monthly. Mrs. Mary Pierce, the widow
OF the testator, In January 1882,
asked the municipal court for an al
lowance and received s400. Then she ex-
pressed dissatisfaction with the terms OF
the will and the provisions made therein
instead OF dover, and stated that unless
$500 was paid her abe would insist on
her dover. The children OF Mr.. Pierce
compromised the matter by paying her
S725. There were provisions in the will
for the sale of parts OF the estate.
in Decent er. 1895, the trustees adver-
ised lot of land tnat is situated on
Main street in PHwucket for safe In efdef
to raise money TO pay certain debts arls-
ing from the trusts under the will. AS
soon as the advert sement of this sale
was made James +. Iiffnay Of Cossack,
West Australia; Harriet l.. Morgan,
wife OF William Ill. Morgan, and Eliza
bth A. Tiffnav, wife of Henry l. Tiffnay,
both of the city Of Providence, children
of Adeline +. Pierce, deceased daugh-
ter of testator, brought bill in equity
against the trustees of the estate, Philip
A. Munroe. ana Philip A. Manroe, ,Jr., +, and
the daughter OF the testator. This ILL
sought 10 prevent the trustee from sell
ling the portion. OF the estate referred to
above.
In their answer the trustees and Sarah
j. Burr, Freelove Williams and Vienna
b. Plummer, daughters OF yman Pierce,
said that the payment of the sum of
Sl125 tn Mrs. Pierce so reduced the estate
and the income Of the estate that the
trustees had to advance money for the
o.. the deceased the sum of $50 a month,
were forced on this account to sell the
Pawtucket property, and that such sale
was perfectly proper under the provisions
of the will. temporary injunction was
issued at the time restraining the sale.
The decision OF the court is to the effect
that the property advertised can he sold,
for the testator intended his property
sEoula 60 to his children, and that even
IL the estate should he, as the complain
ants contend, exhausted by sales, this Is
nothing more than natural under the
circumstances of the case.
