and often repeated convictions. One
half of the republicans Of the state
preferred to be right rather than be
republicans; one half preferred to
be republicans right or wrong,
hence, they divided and gave the
state to the enemy. The results
were as might be expected, and no
sooner had the fusion party been
inaugurated into Office than they
began to war with those who had
helped to put them into power.
The silver republicans voted for
them and suffered them to be elect
ed, because they firmly believed
that the populists Of Idaho were
true silver men and were a true
silver party. But now what have
We to meet. The populists OF Idaho,
led on by Henry Heidfelt, Frank
Walton, c. C. Fuller and that class
Of mushroom politicians, have now
openly declared that the populists
of Idaho are not to make further
fight for the free coinage OF silver,
but that their financial policy for
the future will be the Fiat" paper
of the old greenback party, their
noble sire.
Now that the populists in Idaho
have abandoned the silver cause, it
only waits to be seen what the
democrats of Idaho will do, as we'll
as that wingof the republicans who
supported w. J. Bryan in 1896.
1 am quite sure that can pre-
dict what the silver republicans
will do. They will now, after find
ing out, and learning TO their sor-
row, that the populist party has
been deceiving them, surely never
train with them again. 1t will be
impossible for the silver republi-
cans to unite with the democrats,
because they cannot agree upon the
tariff question. So necessarily it
needs must be, that the democrats
will name ticket in 1898 OF their
own, clear, clean cut, free coinage
# silver and tariff for revenue only.
The populists will have a platform
declaring for the fiat paper money,
he initiative and referendum, gov
,rnment ownership Of railroads,
ub- treasury, etc. 1t will necessari-
y follow, that the republicans who
-oted for ". j. Bryan in 1896, can
lot and will not indorse either Of
hese platforms, and must therefore,
o prevent another calamity to the
tate, return to their. old and be !

Delays of the law" has ever
been the excuse offered by the APP
pologist of mob violence for such
outrsges against law, but when
a judge convenes a special tern
of court, tries convicts and sen
fences aIcriminal TO be hanged,
within a few hours after the COM
mission of the crime, and-then a
mob rushcs in, overpowers the Of
ficers and beats the prisoner to
death in the court room, as was
done last week in Princess Anne,
Maryland, it leads one to suspect
that mob violence is as often the
result of depraved leadership as
the result of the laws delays.

Is IT CLEM's GHOST ?-There is ru.
NOR among the colored people OF the
First ward that the spirit of Glenn Dor
sey, who last week attempted to kill
his wife at their home on Gibbon street
and then committed suicide by cutting
his throat in a neighboring alley, has
returned to the earth; that his ghost
walks by night and, what is worse, that
it carries razor-presumably for use
in case he meets some of those whom
be fancied Injured him. The story
goes that Glenn upon reaching the spirit
land was so dumbfounded at not find
ing his wife there that he determined to
revisit the glimpses of the moon and
ascertain the cause of her stay on earth.
To this end it is limited that Clem's dis
embodied spirit has been seen lowering
around his former abode and that it
slowly meanders through the alley
where his dead body was found. The
thought of black ghost is of itself
sufficiently terrifying, but the idea Of
meeting one with gaping wound in
its throat and cleaning razor in its
hand is enough TO excite the fears of
timid people whose business or duty
may call them at night to be about in
the quiet precincts of the First ward.
These rumors may all be incorrect, but
certain it is that people whose back yards
open upon the alley referred to have
observed the quiet that pervades that
neighborhood at night, and now back
gates can be left open with impunity,
and wood piles, coal bins and chicken
coops are as safe from marauders as if
they were guarded by armed soldiers.
