SINCE Chairman Patrie's address
was given out, some misunder-
standings have arisen, and the
state executive committee has sus-
pended the call until the 10th
instant, when the committee will
again meet to consider the matter.
The executive committee finds fault
with Mr.. Patrie for issuing the
call, but the writer hereof has per-
sonal knowledge that the chairman
issued the cali upon urgent request,
and against his judgment, and we
feel safe in saying that the appear
ant differences will happily adjust
themselves when the state confer
ence is held, at the time named by
Mr.. Patrie, or at some other date
agreed upon.

liz rests upon the intelligent pa
triotism of all the people, we can
not, if we would, shirk our part of
the duty.
Very many of the foremost silver
republicans Of Idaho have served
on me written request that | call
a meeting of the silver republicans
of the state for consultation during
the present month, with hope, |
presume, Of obtaining a consensus
of opinion, and possibly to formu-
late a preliminary plan for the
coming summers campaign. In
response l designated the 28th day
of February, 1898, at Boise City,
at 3 o'clock p. M, as the time and
place for such meeting, and repect
fully request all who can to attend
and urge upon all committeeman
both in state and county organiza-
tions to invite all to attend our de-
alterations. This invitation is
general to the party, and it partic-
ularly includes all who have here
tofore been administration repub-
licans, hut who, because of the
latest utterances of the president
and his advisers, have become sat
isfed that the party in the east has
fallen down in abject worship OF
the idol of gold.
All members of the state central
committee will met at Boise on
March l, 1899, at 10 o'clock a. M.
to transact such business as may

A National Triple Alliance.

A remarkable document was
placed before the public during the
past week. 1t was a joint Official
address issued by three political
parties-democrats, silver repub-
licans and populists. The address
calls upon the masses who affiliate
with one or the other of these three
parties TO combine this year on
common platform and common
ticket, with silver as the para
mount issue, to fight the gold
standard and its kindred evils.
The address is signed on the part
of the silver republicans by chair
man Towne, of the national COM
mittee, and former Senator Dubois,
chairman of the national executive
committee, and by the silver repub-
lican senators and representatives
in congress. On the part of the
populists, the addressed is signed
by Senator Butler, chairman Of the
national committee, and by each
of the % populist senators and re-
representatives. in congress. For the
democrats, Senator Jones, chair
man of the national committee
and full complement of signatur-
es, to make it the official declara-
ton of the party.
With the leaders in congress un.
animous for triple alliance, il
would be strange indeed, if the
three parties failed to unite. The
HERALD believes they will be abb
to agree upon honorable terms Of
fusion in most, if not all, of the
states.
Those leaders who further op
pose such a union, after this de
claration on the part of the ofhcia
head of the party, are no longer t
be classed democrats, silver repub
Leans or populists. They are tool
of Hanna, and in most instance
will be found working in his pay.
Senator Dubois has recentl
very forcibly pointed out the neces
sity of such union as above GU
lined In the matter of the ele,
ton of senators alone, he show
where silver will lose three vot'
without fusion, and it happens thi
one of these senators is a silver r
publican, one a democrat and OF
a populist. The three cases ar
White, of California; Allen, Of Ne
raska; and Cannon, of Utah. Wit

Silver Republicans to Organize.

To the Silver Republicans of Idaho:
On account of the action taken by
the national republican party at
st. Louis, the larger faction of the
party in our state turned its back
to the national organization, while
others remained with the party,
believing that there was no hope
for silver, save through the grand
old party. This one question divi.
ded the republican party of Idaho
and has been the cause of much
heart-burning. All have claimed
to be good silver men, but the sill
yer republicans can now see no
reason why any hope should still
remain in the mind of any silver
man to justify him in longer iden-
tifying himself with the national re-
publican organization. The admin
istration has finally closed the
gates and posted a notice over the
portals which, fairly interpreted,
reads, let no silver man apply.
This has frequently been accen-
tuated by the secretary of the
treasury since the Inauguration OF
President Mckinley; it found its
final affirmation in the recent
speeches of the president in New
York, and in the speeches in cong.
ress during the debate on the Teller
resolution.
The solution of the silver ques
ton is one of the most importan
problems ever presented to tn,
judgement of the nations of tn,
earth. Because of the degradin,
of silver from its immemorial plac
as primary standard money. Pro
duction, which, in its various forms
makes the business of the masses o
mankind, has practically ceased t.

Cameron. Texas. February 19.--The steam
laundry that burned early this morning
was a total loss. The building was owned
by the v. NJ. Jeter Lumber company OF
this city and was not insured. The ma
o.inery valued at $1,000. was also unin-
sured. Ben jackson, a boy l6 years old,
was burned with the building. His charred
remains are now at Hefley q. Hefley's nn-
dertaking house. He was last seen about
IL O'Clock and soon sitter went TO his room
in the laundry building. where he usually
slept The indications arc that he never
but lay down as he entered
the building. About u o'clock the FIRE was
discovered and was soon under Roadway
but no one thought tho boy in the building.
The fire companies could do nothing because
they had no access TO water. How the
fire originated and why Jackson did not
awake and leave the building are still a.
mystery.
