The Butte Miner is booming Mr..
Clark for the e. S. senate, and, fear
full of silver republican influence,
which might work hardship upon
the democratic chieftain, that paper
opposes fusion of the silver forces.
1t has been suggested that as the
Miner probably wields considerable
influence over Mr.. Clark, it would
be much better to endeavor to secure
his withdrawal from the race; for il
Henry Clay could forego president,

right, how much more should MIR
Clark, leading democrat, abandon
senatorial hopes in order to set hi;
party right.
