Silver Republican Resolutions
We, the Silver Republicans
of Idaho County, Idaho, in
convention assembled, hereby
indorse the platform of the
Silver Republican party of the
State of Idaho, adopted at
Boise City on the "a day of
August, 1893.
We indorse the fusion state
ticket as nominated by the
Democrats and Silver Repub-
licans at that time.
We believe that all fees re-
ceived by county officers
should be covered into the
county treasury without de-
auctions for fees and therefore
would commend the proposed
amendment to the state con-
stitution providing that all
county officers should be paid
by a salary instead of fees as
at present.
We believe that the future
of our county depends to a
great extent on the resources
which at present time lie un
developed; and to that enc
pledge our nominees to dc
all in our power to encourage
the investment of capital If
our midst.
Our roads and the expense
necessary to their propel
maintenance being one of tn,
most serious matters coming
before our county commission
ers for their consideration, WI
would recommend all expense
, for road work should be close
ly scrutinized; we believe tina

Willis Sweet for District
Judge.

Willis Sweet, formerly a
congressman of this state, was
nominated for Judge of the
second judicial district by the
silver republicans at the silver
republican district convention.
There was a full representa-
ton from Nez Perez county
and Latah county present.
Idaho county instructed 5. G..
Herrin of Latah to cast the
vote of Idaho county for
Frank l.. Moore, the demo-
cratic nominee. These in
structions were by telephone
message from the county cen
trail committee. The conven-
ton denied the authority
of a county committee to di.
rect the ballot of delegates to
the district convention, which
was holding an adjourned meet
ing, having first met in Boise
and adjourned to Lewiston by
consent and authority of the
state convention, 1t was fl.
nally decided to again com.
municate with the Idaho
county delegates. After a
recess the convention assem-
bled at 1890 P. ma when Mr..
Herrin presented a dispatch
signed by the delegates to the
adjourned convention, with
the same instructions, to vote
for Moore. The endorsement
of Moore as well as the en-.
dorsement of E. G. Steele, the
republican candidate was bit.
terly opposed by Willis Sweet.
He pleaded for union, but con-
tended that endorsement with
out being q party to the selec,
ton meant absorption, and not
union.
; Mr.. Sweet was finally nomi.
mated for Judge by a majority
: of one vote. The convention
!, then refused to endorse either
candidate, thus defeating flu
sion in this district.
: Willis Sweet was born al
= Alburgh Springs, VT, January
/, 1886. He was educated If
= the Nebraska public schools
: and later attended the state
!. university. In September
1881, he located at Moscow
: engaging in the practice O.
:, law. In May, 1888, he re
= ceived the appointment o
United States attorney fol
: Idaho. He was appointed as
!, sociate justice of the supreme
= court of Idaho, November IS
1850, which position he hele
!. until the admission of tn.

IS it is absurd and one which

date at the polls on Nov. 8.
He further states that the at

any such attempt made | have
failed to see it; but | do see
that he and his "ring" have

himself a political traitor by
bartering the welfare of the
party for the hope of an office.

bert prints the "peoples party
platform" wherein it says:
"And especially do We reiter-
ate our loyalty to the primer
pie of the free coinage OF sill
yer and gold at the ratio OF
1o to l." Then the next day
he makes an alliance with the
