The Idaho supreme court has rem
dered an interesting opinion deny
ing motion ior rehearing in the
interest case recently decided, the
Vermont Loan and Trust Company
VS.. Ross Hoffman ct al, which has
attracted so much attention and
interest throughout the state. It's
the case in which Understanding
coupons given for interest not due
are declared to be usury. The court
says that ''the matter of usury is
peculiarly statutory" 1t finds but
one state, Minnesota, in which there
is a statute like that of Idaho, the
two being practically identical, and
il fails to find any decision by the
Supreme Court Of Minnesota rec
ognizing Reconstruction contended
for by the company. The District
Conrt is directed to issue an order
restoring the property to Hoffman
it having been sold under the de-
cree of the lower court and bought
in by the loan company.

The Sugar Trust will make clean
net profit of nearly $15,000,000 during
the first month of the new tariff law
AS soon as it became evident that an
increased rate would be placed on raw
sugar the Trust began to rush new
sugar into their warehouses, from
every country producing raw sugar.
There supply Of raw sugar at ordinary
times is about 100000 tons, but they
now have at least 100000 tons, and it
is estimated that before the tariff bill
goes into effect they will have l,000,-
600 tons of raw sugar brought in un-
der the present tariff rate. The pre-
sent rate of duty on raw sugar is about
$1,000 per ton, and the proposed rate
is $1,000 per ton. 1t viii therefore
be seen that the Trust will make q
clean $16,000,000.

A Gloomy Prophecy.
The San Francisco Call says:

HO IAN Iauclsco Cail says:
The retirement Of Boies Of Iowa
from the l6 to ! platform is another
evidence of the rapidlty with which
the Bryan fusion of last year is dis
migrating. With the Populists
leaving it to one size and the Dem
ocrats on the other, there will hardly
be enough of it left in 1900 to hire
"a hall, much less hold a conven-
ton.
Last November G,497,325 men
cast their votes for VIM. J. Bryan.
Since then the eight months have
elapsed and Mr.. Thomas Watson
and Mr.. Horace Boies have, in the
exquisitely elegant English of the
Call, retired from the 16 to 1 plat
FORM There will elapse before the
next presidential election three
years and four months, and at this
alarming rate Of disintegration the
democratic party Will lose ten more
voters in that time. The prospect
is, indeed, terrifying. This will
leave but beggarly 6,497,313 to
hire a hall.
To add to the unrelieved gloom Of
this awful prospect, we understand
that the Hon. Dink Bolts of Geor.

The King of Traitors.

T. V. Powderly has received his
pay from President McKinley-the
obligation is cancelled, the debt is
paid, and the people now know the
value set by this erstwhile labor
leader upon his honor, remarks the
Boise Sentinel The price of his
treason was the office of commits
sioner Of immigration at the port Of
New York, to which place he has
recently been appointed.
Among the long list of traitors
whose names blacken the pages of
the worlds history, the name of
Terence V. Powderly stands out in
bold relief. Endowed by nature
with keen intellect, the inherent
qualities of a leader, he rapidly rose
from the ranks of o common laborer
10 be their adviser and trusted
leader, until his name was a sy-
nonym for loyalty and watchword
ofhope in millions of humble homes
When the great battle came be
tween right and wrong-betweer
justice and injustice-between lib
erty and slavery-when the labo
and organization of years was to b'
tested in the fire of a great decisiv,
battle at the polls, this leader, mad,
great by the loyal trust of his fel
low workmen, sold his honor TO
place, turned traitor to the friend
of lifetime, ond now the reward
has come. With the heart and ma
ture of treacherous serpent, h
takes to his new office the hatred O
every friend of the people, the loath
ing of those with whose money h,
was purchased.
When the final day comes tina
all men must meet and the gates O
hell swing wide for his blackeneC
and perjured soul, he will be vel
coined as king by all the Judas Is
CARROTS and Benedict Arnolds o
countless ages past.

thing, 1t was anything but solemn
IN the United States Senate a day or
two ago. Rev. Hugh Johnston was
the acting chaplain. In the course OF
his prayer he thanked God for the
glorious era OF prosperity which was
sweeping over the country. Senator
Jones OF Arkansas, whose bead was
peverently bent, smiled as these words
fell upon his ear. He could not help
it. Senator Vest almost laughed out
loud. All the Democrats were visibly
amused; nor was there a sober face
among the Republicans. 1t was
quite evident that the Senators re-
garded the clergyman's gratitude as
being little premature.

Silver Forces Undismayed.

Again the gold newspapers have
commenced their torrent Of vituper-
alton. Everywhere they express sur
prise that the silver forces are undis-
mayed, and feel hurt that fusion ele-
ments dare to attempt again the battle
Tor the money Of the constitution.
Advocates Of the gold standard forget
that the history of the American
people is long and continued struggle
for right. Where great principles
have been involved they have never
known defeat. the English IN The
battles OF the revolution were dismay-
ed at the persistencY Of the tattered
armies which never knew they were
whipped. The war Of 1912 and the
great civil conflict, where temporary
defeat was followed by victory, are
illustrations which even the children
remember, OF the courage of Americans
under adverse circumstances.
The fight for silver involves q prin-
ciple AS dear to the common people as
that OF independence. 1t survived for
years and was subdued temporarily by
the most unfortunate of "hukes." In
the first battle for redress of wrongs
the silver armies were whipped by the
same forces that blackened the homes
and desolated the fresides in 1776.
These forces have sailed under a diff
ferent flag since then, but their ultimate
object, ACKNOWLEDGEMENT OF the rich
and oppression of the poor, are the
same. That the common people should
rally again to the general of the first
campaign is a repetition Of history OF
this nation.
Industrial America is passing
through an experience as bitter as the
patriots of the revolution. The re-
cruiting Of armies for the ballot box in
1900 goes on, however, with the same
persisteucy as did the strengthening
of the armies OF Washington and
Greene. Bryan's reception every
where in the nation is sufficient indi.
cation that his supporters have not
for moment lost sight OF tho princi-
pie for which they fought last Novem.
Der. Abuse is poor weapon with
which to combat this wave Of recup-
Grafton. Not until the gold forces

have been fighting for a principle
without merit-Spokane Spokesman.
