ooNpoLENoE.


The TRIBUNE is panied beyond
expression to be obliged to record
the death of one of Caldwell's
brightest and most popular young
men. The circumstances sur
rounding the sad event were par
ticularly distressing. Thomas
Paynter, young, strong and full
of hope and promise, in the first
flush of a noble manhood, was
stricken down by one of those
strange accidents which now and
again occur in spite of all care
and precaution. The manner of
his taking away is given particu-
larly elsewhere and we pen these
few words in order only to ex-
press our profound sorrow, and in
a measure express our admiration
and respect of the young man
whose untimely death cast a
shadow of gloom upon this whole
community. To the bereaved
parents we extend our most sim
>ere coincidence and trust that |
Sod will give them strength to
bear up in the hour of their deep |
ifliction.

connection we reproduce the fol-
lowing arraignment from the
Albion Times:
at is actually funny to see the aero
batic feats INDUCED in by the silver Re
publicans in their efforts to get under
the wing of goldbugism. Those who
were loudest mouthed two years ago,
when political patronage was in sight,
are the first now to crawl upon their
bellies up to their necks in slime from
their own lying tongues and beg for
giYensss. The souls of such hypocriteS
are so small that all combined would
not even be discernable with the most
powerful magnifying glass. They not
only lose the respect of their neighbOrs,
but how mean and contemplate they
must feel deep down in their own
hearts!"

THE CONVENTIONS WORK.

The Republican convention has
met and done its work. The
TRIBUNE is not disposed at this
moment to enter upon any ex-
tended discussion of the merits or
dement's of the performance. The
ticket, upon the whole, seems to
be unexceptional and worthy
the support of all Republicans
and most good citizens. There
are some exceptionally strong
men upon it and none who is
weak. This phase of the conven-
tons work will be more particu-
larly discussed as the campaign
progresses. The next thing in
point of importance is the plat
form adopted. In respect of that,
it is but simple justice to say that,
considered as a literary product,
it is emphatically crude. IT is,
beyond question, the most lily
constructed platform ever adopted
by the Republican party of this
state; and we suggest that here
after, together with men of ideas,
there should be placed on the
committee on resolutions, some
one capable of putting ideas to-
gether in an ineligible way. In
point of composition the platform
is not creditabIe to the Repubi-
can party.
As the financial plank is essen
tally the most important one in
the platform, it is nnhappily
among the most vague. We
quote it: "We heartily endorse
llle financial Pollcy OF the Repub-
ican party as the same has been
applied to the management of the
financial affairs of the govern
lment;" The question is, to what

WHY FusIoN9
'ocGtcllO Advance, (Dem.)

PocdtclIo AdUGnce, tDem)
Why fusion in Idaho or any
other mining state? Is a ques-
ton that is now being self put
and answered by every sincere
silver champion in the west and
those more or less indirectly af-
fected by the silver industry. The
answer seems to be a unanimous
chorus Condemning the fusion
proposition as being an office
seeking scheme that carries with
it half reputation of the silver
issue if not an attempt at COM
plete assassination of the bimetal-
lie cause. In Utah the depleted
Silver Republicans mere
handful-arc trying to mature an
ofice-fusing plan with the Dem
ocrats, but have met with repeat
ed refusals. The last prominent
mining man to announce his with
drawal from that party in Utah is
the Hon. David Keith, part own
er of and manager of the famous
Silver King mine at Park City,
who said Wednesday, "henceforth
| am a Democrat and will work
with that party for the restoration
of silver" And Mr.. Keith is not
only an admirer of Senator Can
non but would be pleased to have
Cannon succeed himself in the
senate, but openly declares that
such an event can not occur for
the reason that Utah voters will
continue to stand by the Demo-
cratic party and are opposed to
all fusion alliances in making the |
fight for silver's ultimate triumph. |
MIR. Keith is in position to real
re the utter futility of trying to
maintain a half dozen alleged sill
yer parties, and has the moral
courage to logically support such
convictions CALAMITY battling for
liver under the Democratic ban
Ter. And scores of prominent
mining men are doing just as Mr..
keith has done-men who prefer
.ictory for great cause to any
flee that hypocritical sacrifice

increased coinage of silver
: brought about by the law requir
ing the coinage of the seignior-
age? If so, why not say so. In
general terms the financial policy
: of the Republican party is, and
/, always has been, an honorable
discharge of all public obligations,
is it this the platform endorses?
The convention might just as well
have said, we endorse the moral
law as applied TO morals, as to
say we endorse a sound financial
policy as applied to financial af-
fairs, for that is what it virtually
says. The financial plank has
not even the merit of being
straddle. 1t seems as though
some member of the committee
on resolutions was oppressed with
the idea that something ought to
be said on the financial question,
but what, he didn't know. How
ever, he said it and found relief,
we earnestly hope.
The financial policy of the Re-
publican party, relating to the
national monetary system, as ex-
pounded in its platform of 1906,
is that the present system shall be
maintained until by an agreement
with other important commercial
nations another and better system
can be secured; or, in other words,
the Republican party favors BIZ
metalism and pledges itself to in
dustriously labor to obtain it, and
to adopt it whenever it can be
done without facilitating the
financial system of the country
and endangering the stability and
prosperous growth of all our in
dustrial and commercial interests.
Why did not the platform say
something on this phase of the
money question, instead of con-
filming itself strictly to the govern
ment's fiscal policy in a depart
mental sense? We shall in future :
have more to say respecting the 6
platform as an idea, and probably !
less to say respecting it as a work
Of art. But over and above and
