Ratification in DeLamar.


On Tuesday evening the citizens of
DeLamar, irrespective of former party
affiliations, turned out almost unani-
monsly with badges, banners and brass
band and formed in parade to express
their approval of the Chicago nominal
tions and platform. A number of Sill
yer City people came down and partici-
pated. Alarge number Of ladies turned
out to view the parade and hear the
speakers. Addresses were made by
Hon. j. G. Watts, Hon J. J. Bennett
and J. A. Pollard, Esq. A shower fell
after the parade was formed but it
failed to dampen the ardor of the peo-
pie or to prevent the people from show
ing their enthusiasm for the candidates
who viii come within less than q dozen
votes of carrying old Owyhee unanim-
ously. A want Of proper arrangements
created some confusion in assembling
the crowd and somewhat marred but
did not prevent the people from show
ing how they felt or how they would
vote.

silver city's Ratification.


The enterprising and enthusiastic
democrats Of Silver City had a glorious
ratification meeting, last Saturday
night and the most interesting feature
about it was that they did not crowd
the republicans of that town into back
seats, but let them in at their jollifca-
ton on equal terms. During the day a
self constituted committee had plat
form erected in front of the court
house and decorated with the national
colors, and also had prepared number
of transparencies, and an announce
ment of meeting made. At night, led
by the Silver City Band, about two
hundred people fell into line. After
parading the streets, the people halted
in front of the platform, and Hon. J. G..
Watts opened the proceedings in an en-
thusiastic speech, which was followed
by addresses by Messrs. Pollard, Hall,
Nugent and others. Loud calls were
made for a speech from Mr.. Borah, and
that gentleman responded with a neat
apology for his appearance on a demo-
cratic rostrum and a reiteration of a
statement formerly made that heWould
not vote for any candidate who stood
upon a goldbug platform.
1t was the most enthusiastic and the
most harmonious meeting we ever saw
in Silver City. Fully as many repubh-
cans as democrats wore Bryan badges,
and the two lone goldbugs reported to
have beenin town, but who reside in
Boise, kept back in the shadows.

AS about ninety and one-half
per cent of the republicans of Owyhee
county propose to vote against the St
Louis platform and candidate, it is
time they we're beginning to consider
where they are at. Are they prepared
to move their whole outfit over into
the democratic camp and take up their
home with the enemy, surrendering
their political faith to them, or viii
they keep up their organization? We
are in favor of holding our county and
state conventions, nominating full
tickets, as usual, for county and state
offices and, at the state convention
simply declining to name electors from
the state to represent US in the elector-
al college.

The Silver City Amatuer Minstrel
Company gave an entertainment in
DeLamar, last Wednesday night, to a
full house and pleased everybody. It
was fine show and demonstrated that
that mountain camp can show up
as great versatility of accomplish
ments as any town in Idaho, The per
Torrance was clean and genteel, the
songs and instrumental music were fine
and the funny business was very laugh
able. The NUGGET was glad to see SO
large and genteel an audience present.
Some of our people went to Silver City
not long since and were treated royalty,
and did only the proper thing in giving
the boys from up the gulch, hearty
reception. We hope to see that show
again.

Mat MARI, DeLamar's erstwhile shoe
dealer, who is now recupeTating his
health in Canton, Ohio, writes that he
is getting quite well again and had re-
turned from trip to Washington and
New York, just in time to take in all the
fun at McKinley's home, following his
nomination as the goldbug candidate.
He says the town has gone wild and
that the hotel and business men are
making so much money out of the fact
that that town is now the Mecca of the
banker and plutocrat, that the bust
ness men have disuaded Mr. Mckinley
from making contemplated trip to
the sea shore and remain at his home.
He says he was present when the com
mittee to notify Mckinley of his NOM
nation called upon him and heard the
gentleman say, in his address, that the
platform had his unqualified endorse
ment Mat, being a strong silver man,
did not endorse Mckinley for that ut
terance. Mat adds: 81 tell you the
silver sentiment is growing right here
in Mcl1inley's home. Where people
were talking nothing but sound money
three months ago, they are beginning
to think now, and even in the atmos-
phere of the little Napoleon's own town
one can see that there is a cyclone com
ing, which promises to sweep the coun-
try in November"

friend, John F. Nugent, of Boise, offer

Mining Comany, at a salary of $4,000
per year. For some reason Mr.. Nugent
did not receive the letter until it was a
month overdue. He at once cebled Mr..
K, who replied that he was too late,
but instructed him to come to London
at once as he held a good position open
for him in Australia. Mr. Nugent
came to Silver City, on Monday, to bid
his father good bye. and has started
this week for London. He was an en-
ployee of Mr.. Kemp Van Ee's at Rocky
Bar and Silver City, and as Kemp is a
man who stands dy his friends, he has
doubtless secured for him good posi-
ton. Well, John deserves it. He is an

proud and we all wish him prosperity.

Silver City business firm sending an
order to a Boise print shop for bill
heads, letter heads, etc. The Avalanche
Office is within earshot of the house
from which the order was sent, and
does more to help the business of this
firm every week, than all of Boise does
in year, and the Avalanche turns out
as fine job printing as any shop in
Boise. There is at least one business
firm in Silver City whose members are
very short on business sense. Were it
not that we learned of this order
through confidential source we would
give the name the firm.

The following New Hiawatha"
written by some unknown author
seems to apply we'll to the st. Louis
platform.
Thus they make Mckinley platforms,
Of mixed lumber make the platforms
Make them silvery on the outside,
Make them golden on the inside
For the people on the outside,
For the goldbug on the inside;
Putting silver on the outside,
Putting gold upon the inside,
They change the inside outside,
Change the outside to the inside
Inside outside, outside inside.
These will swear the inside's outside,
Those declare the outside's inside.
Thus they make Mckinley platforms,
OF mixed lumber make the platforms.

The Pioneer Press is struggling
with the efollowing Mexican and Ameri-
can problems touching its financial
notions. A Mexican farmer and
farmer of the United
States are each owing $500. Each
produce 1000 bushels of wheat. The
one in the United States sells his for
$500 and pays this debt. The Mexi-
can soils his for $1,000, with $500 of
which he pays his debt and has $500
left, which if he desires he can ex-
change for $3.50 of the gold which the
Pioneer Press worships. And this
difference between Mixico as a free
silver country and the United States
under tho financial dominion of En-
gland is the problem that it is devot-
ing columns to without throwing light
on the question which its logic
tries to obscure.

A Fatal Accident.

A very sad accident occurred at the
home of Cnas. Cruson yesterday. His
little daughter, aged two years and
three months, was playing near a
chair, when in some manner she
tripped and fell, striking with the
back of her neck across a round in
the chair, breaking it instantly. The
parents, thinking she had fallen in a
fit, sent for DIR. Simons at once; but
when the doctor reached their home,
life was almost extinct and nothing
that human hands could do would re-
vive the bright and active little girl
of an hour before. She had gone to
the one who hath said, "Suffer little
children to come unto me, and forbid
them not, for such is the kingdom of
heaven"
Mr.. and Mrs. Cruson have the
sympathy of the community in this,
