LIKE the dog that returns to his yomit
the Silver Plated Blade swallows its
words on the county bond repudiation
scheme. What it stated in its issue OIL
January 22nd as q fact, TO the effect that
the board Of county commissioners would
take steps, before adjournment, to test
the validity OF the bond issue of 1892. IL
now says was simply based on rumor.
II further states that the question Of
special counsel was first raised by two
Ceur d'Alene attorneys. This is not
true. A Rathdrum attorney appeared
before the board upon at least two occa-
tiOns previous to the appearance Of the
Ceur d'Alene attorneys and urged the
board to retain him on fee Of IS 600, OF
which $1,000 was to be paid in advance.
The editor Of the Blade has faculty for
making positive statements which he
later admits were insincere, and as a re-
suit but little reliance is placed in what
he says on any subject. When we stop
to consider his reputation in this re-
Fpect We are inclined to admit that we
may have taken his first statement "alto-
gether too seriously" as he says. One
thing, however, is certain: The people
Of Kootenai county are not in favor Of
reputation; neither are they in favor Of
having their money squandered in extor-
tionate attorney fees to test the legality
of the county bonds.

IrnGE HEYBuRN, of Spokane, Wash,
seems to be boss Of the Republican party
in Idaho. He attended meeting of tie
Republican executive committee at Boise
last week and Endorsed resolution beg
ging the Silver Republicans 70 return
and settle their differences within the
party lines. In other words, the Silver
Republicans are asked to eat humble
pie, swallow the Gage bill, accept the
single gold standard, wboop 'er up for
Hannaocracy and abandon the principles
for which they left the party. We can
speak for the Silver Republicans OF
Kootenai county and say they will not
even consider the invitation. Il is an
insult to their manhood, and shows the
men who issued it TO be q set of crafty
knaves or fools. 1t is somewhat after
the style OF the spider and fly story, and
there is not sincere Silver Republican
IA true bimetallist-in this county who
will walk into their parlor. This IL the
first OF series Of moves that are to be
made on the political checkerboard for
the purpose OF re-unlting the Republi-
cans. The result will be to show up a
few traitors in the Silver Republican
camp and give the party an opportunity
TO purge itself Of their presence. This is
desirable and will result benefcially to
the silver cause. The Silver Republic
cans win gain ten votes for every one
they loose.

LET US UNITE.

The Teller resolution and President
McKinIey,s New York speech will have
the effect Of causing the alignment OF
the leading political parties on the finan-
cial question az the one great issue. The
Republican party 10 bound by McKin-
ley's speech to the gold standard and
must stand firmly by that idea. Sena-
tor Teller is Silver Republican and his
resolution is endorsed by that party.
The Democrats are committed to the
free coinage Of silver and majority Of
the Populists favor the proposition.
The position Of the Republican party
is not doubted by any one who reads
the newspapers, and 1t is the sheerest
folly for any intelligent person to longer
claim that it favors bimetallism in any
form and he who says 80 brands himself
an ass. This being true it becomes
the duty Of every loyal bimetallist-and
that means every free silver advocate,
no matter to what party he may belong
to throw aside party prejudice and eager
ness to see personal friend pushed for
ward for Office, for the enc great princi-
pie Of the free and unlimited coinage of
silver at the ratio Of l6 TO 1. For the
present all other issues, all other party
questions, must be eliminated from the
contest and q perfect union effected.
With this accomplished and the friends
of silver showing solid front, the great
est victory ever achieved in the cause OF
humanity and civilization will have been
accomplished when the votes for con-
gressmen are counted throughout the
United States next November. There
is no doubt a large majority Of the peo-
pie of this country favor bimetallism
and il they ara once united no power on
earth-not even that Of gold-can resist
their efforts to restore the money of the
constitution. Let rs unite, then, for the
greatest political battle in the worlds
history.

Gen. s,ark's victory at Bennington.

Stark successfully massed his Ave hundred

he made feint. and nnder cover of IL moved
another body of two hundred to the right.
This done, ne had his men In position, and
was ready to attack. He outnumbered the
enomy more than two to one hut his men
were merely militia and without baycnets-a
badly equipped force for an assault. The
British. on the other hand, were thor oughly
disciplined. regular troops, intranched and
with artillery. The advantage was all theirs,
for they had merely to hold their ground.
But Stark krew his men. Tie wild fighting
blood Of his Scotch-Irish ancestors was up,
and ne gave the word. The Am orleans pressed
forward. using their rifles with dead ly effect.
The Indian allies OF the king. having no ilIu-
sions as to American frontiersmen In their
shirt sleeves and armed with rifles, slipped ON

desperate than the last. Stark, who said the

with powder and smoke almost beyond rec

1t is perhaps not untimely to re-
call that the first war extra ever
published in New England on a
Sunday, was gotten out down
in New Bedford, and young
Herbert w. Ladd, then news
paper reporter, hustled it into
type and through the press to
furnish the news of the battle OF
Fredericksburg. That was New
England's first Sunday newspaper

rnE SIZE OF THE vicroRy.

1t would not be surprising II
the. complete and corrected news
OF the first engagement Of the war
should demonstrate that it was an
American victory far beyond pres
ent indications.
So far, the news is entirely on
Spanish authority, the sanIe au-
thority that has so many times
subdued the Cuban army, made
peace in the island and has re-
Gently furnished fairy stories as to
the operations of our own fleet,
the fancifulness of which has been
more easy to trace than have the
correct versions of victories over
the Cuban insurgents.
The way the news came sug-
gested the kind of matter that you
read Immediately on the closing OF
the polls after a hot election. 1t
was favored to suit the side heard
from, and that side and the only
side was Spain. The early news
claimed a Spanish victory. The
minister of marine, we are told,
found difficulty in restraining his
joyful emotions After that,
however, there were reluctant adj
missions of Spanish losses, and
then in rapid succession, as the
newspaperreportsindicate, the news
bulletins told of greater and great
er Spanish casualties and less and
less was heard Of loss on the
American side.
1t is difficult to sift the truth.
Either Dewey must get hold OF
the wires at Manila or dispatch a
messenger ship to the mainland
before the real facts can be known.
But there is every reason to be-
lieve that when the returns are all
in the triumph of the Yankee sail
ors will be greater even than any
thing yet at hand would make US
feel sure of.
