The women of Idaho who sought
to have the legal right to vote grant.
ed them by the ''lords of creation
at the last election, must cherish q
feeling of pique mingled with their
keen disappointment over the signal
defeat of the suffrage amendment.
All the political parties of the state
had declared in favor of woman
suffrage by adopting a plank in
their respective platforms pledging
themselves to it's support.sAlthough
treachery and unkept promises are
proverbial among mon in political
campaigns. if the men Of Idaho
had spark Of chivalry in their
composition they would have prov

ladies which they pledged them
selves to champion. It 10 only zone

The people of the United States
by their votes have secured four
years lease of Sound money, ""pro-
tection," confidence" and "pros.
perity,' and with a Congress in
sympathy with the Mckinley Ad.
ministration, which seems to be =
foregone conclusion, there is moth
ing to prevent a fair trial of the
Observation-Disclosures remedy !;
and if the prosperity and happiness
follow that is promised by the Re-
publican party, truly the land in
which we live will flow with milk
aud honey. To the advocates of
Bryan and free coinage the outlook
bears an entirely different aspect.
The situation promises no change
from the present deplorable coudi.
tions, and the voters decided at the
polls that they didn't want any.
They will probably experience q
change of opinion in the course OF
the next four years. We shall see.

Senator James K. Jones, late
chairman of the Democratic Ma.
tional Committee says that the re-
suit of the Presidential election was
victory for the democratic party.
He says that while they had lost
the election they had not lost the
fight. The cause Of silver was
stronger to-day than it was when
the campaign opened, and victory
was assured in 1900. He pays a
high tribute to w. j. Bryan, and
says he had made one of the moet
wonderful fights that had ever been
made by any leader.
Senator Jones declares that the
large .number OF Commercial orders
placed previous 10 election day and
contingent upon McKinley's cleo
ton had been made use Of in in
dusncing the votes Of .workingmen,
and had caused thousands Of Bryan
men to vote for Nc KinIey, and that
Bryan lost the election By the
changes made during tht last thsee
daysof shs campaign.

Cel1ornia For Bryan,

G. w. Baker, who was here from
San Francisco on professional bus.
mess, says the official returns will
show that Bryan carried California
By several thousand majority. The
Presidential electors were arranged
in groups on the ballot, the names
Of tho Democratic and Populist
electors being the same. Many
voters marked the Democratic and
Populist groups Of electors to en-
plastic their adherence to Bryan.
In many precincts these ballots
were not counted and in other pre-
cincts, where tile Populists voted
for their electors only tho votes
were not counted for Bryan. Nj.
Baker thinks there we're At least
1900 Bryan votes thrown out in
San Francisco and several thousand
in other parts Of the State.

A prominent Methodist divine
in q recent sermon on the political
situation of the country said: Party
loyalty is oil right but it is import
ant that right ideas on that line
should prevail. Under some cir
cumstances the man who repudiates
the platform and tho candidates
that his party has put forth is show
ing a higher loyalty to his party
than the man who always votes the
straight ticket. Parties, like indi-
viduals, can 60 astray, and they
need strong, conscientious men to
give them such singing rebuke
as will turn them back into the
paths of right.

following statement November 9th,
which 10 part il o follows:
ITO Bimetallists Of the United
States Conscious that millions oi
loyal hsarts are saddsnsd By the
Temporary dsfea:, ! beg to offer =
word Of hope and encouragement.
No cause ever had supporters No
more brave, sarnest and devoted
than those who. have espoused the
cause Of bimetaliism. The friends
of bimetailism have not been van
ished they simply have been over
come. The contest has been waged
this year under great embsrfass-
ments and against great odds. IN
spite Of the efforts Of the adj
ministration and ito supporters,
in spite Of the threats Of money
lenders at home and abroad, bimet.
alism has almost triumphed in its
first fight. In the face Of the en-
envy, rejoicing in its victory, let the
roll be called for another engage
ment and urge al friends of bimes-
allism to renew their allegiance to
the cause. Let al silver clubs retain
their organizations. Our cause has
prospered most where the money
question has been longest discussed
among the people. During the next
four years it will be studied all over
this nation. Before the year 1900
arrives International bimetallism
will cease to deceive. The evils of
the gold standard will be even more
evident than they are now and the
people will be ready to demand an
American financial policy for Amer
lean people, and will join with as
in the immediate restoration of the
free and unlimited coinage Of gold
and silver. w. ]. BRYAN"

Vulnerable merry warblers of the
forests, even hawks, owls and whip
poor-wills took flight and sought
green fields and climate moist. The
very snakes, frogs, turtles and taran-
tulas emigrated, or at least disap-
peared, and yet, Notwithstanding the
showers of dust so constant and se-
we're indeed that some pastures were
seriously injured by the falling sand
and much black-waxy soil was so
sanded DER as to make it fairly easy
to drive a vehicle over it when wet.
The thirsty earth yielded her in
crease, not full crop to be sure, still
more than enough for home con-
sumption. Grass cured and fattens
stock like grain.
The farmer who gets up in the
morning and bitches his team, loads
on his barrels and starts off two, five
and not infrequedtly ten miles for
water, while his neighbor drives the
cows, ponies and herds as far or far
ther to slake their thirst at some
we'll or pool, occasionally gets lit
tie impatient and signing, looks
heavenward, hoping to catch a
glimpse of cloud, or offers a silent
prayer for good, old fashioned soak
ing rain like we used to see in the
States.
But neither drouth, simoons nor
deprivation of the ballot can smother
our interest in the national election,
The Hanna combination of syndi-
Gates, trusts and corporations and
the rich and powerful Democrats
who, in her hour of need, deserted
the party to whose grace they owe
their ascendency, would be brought
to grief and made to tremble, if the
masses in the States were enthused
with the spirit of defiance and de-
termination that characterizes the
people of the Territory.
We watch with deepest anxiety
the herculanean efforts of the great
leader and the rank and file of the
silver forces. We are depressed
when we see how many are blinded
by the gold dust that is thrown in
their eyes. and are led captive by
Hanna at his will. But we take
courage and are glad when we hear
OF the crowds that follow and cheer
the young giant of Democracy.-I
And we devoutly pray that we may
join the nation in triumphant shout
OF victory, Bryan and equal justice
to all men ere the ides of November.

1.-THE nation that controls our fl
nancial policies is more of an OPP
pressor than nation which stands
over us with an army or navy to de-
feat our political rights. 1t has been
said by others, and l repeat it as my
own opinion, that 1 would rather
have a foreign general in command
of our army; l would rather have a
foreign admiral in command of our
navy than to have the treasury of
the United States run upon the Eu-
ropean plan. (Applause.) IF we
had foreign general at the head of
our army we could in twenty-four
hours, in any trouble, enlist enough
Americans to overpower our army
with its foreign general. (Applause. }
If we had foreign admiral at the
head of our navy and the time should
ever come when it injured us,
we could equip a navy that could
conquer our own navy with any for
eign assistance that it might secure.
(Cheers.) But if you put man at
the head of the treasury department
who believes the nation must bow to
dictation of some foreign nation and
will submit its financia! policy TO the
decision of aliens, you have man
who exercises disatrOus Influence,
not only with the workingmen, but
on all the people of this land and
make of them vassals, instead of
free men and citizens"
