IDAHO POLITICS CLEAR UP.
POpulists Will Reject Fusion With
Other silver Forces-Repu
Ready for the CAMPAIGN.

BLACKFOOT. Idaho. July u-Ths
Populsts have called their state conven-
ton for August $. The Republicans have
called their state convention for August
II. The Silver Republicans and Demo-
Gratis have called their respective conven-
ton for August 81 The Silver Repub-
Leans and Democrats 40, only meet at
the same time and place. but their calls
appear side by side and in the same Ian
guage, each advocating cooperation OF
the silver forces. In addition to this,
there is the utmost harmony between ths
two parties. Il is safe TO say that the
Popul.sts will stand alone with a straight
Populist ticket. The Republicans will
stand alone with a straight Republican
ticket. The Democrats and Silver Re-
publicans Will form \ close and harmoni-
Gus union. which Ii IS contemplated Will
be permanent.
There is no prospect of the Popuksss
jcin!ng the Democratic Silver Republican
combination. The leading Popuiists are
all opposed 10 IL. and leaders OF the Demo
Gratis. except Nationa. Committeeman
A.nsee. do not want the Populists. Elk
Senator Dubois and ex-CongEessman
Sweet have strenuousiy urged union of
PopGlsts, Democrats and Silver Repub-
licans, but they stand almost alone among
the leaders Of their party. All hopes of
the Republicans and Popuists forming \
combination has been abandoned.
The atmosphere has become so clear
politically that the various combinations
for individual candidates are beng work
ed on the accepted fact that the Populis;s
will go il alone. Republicans will do like
wise and the Democrats and Silver Re-
publicans Will unite.
