Kill The Four Per Cent Bill.

Owing to a lack Of force the bill re-
ducing State land interest did not come
up, but will, 10 all probability, make
an appearance today, 1t should not
pass and every man that votes for it
will go on record.
Knock it out, Messrs. Assemblymen.
AS the people of the State look upon it rs
the greatest grab ever attempted in This
State.
There is a still fight going on to get it
off the table and if this should happen
it will mean a third reading and final
passage. Keep it on the table and let it
die with the Legislature.

SILVER THE ISSUE.

Senator Henry NJ. Teller the great
silver leader and American statesman
and wife, reached Sal, Lake Wedues-
day and stopped there day or two to
rest, before going north. The Senat.
or was interviewed by the Herald,
aud said in part:
There is no Intention OF disband-
ing the Silver Republican party. The
organization will be kept up aud the
fight will continue rs vigorously rs
ever. The financial question Is the
all important question before the
world today. The most OF the other
evils, as for example, the trusts, grow
out OF bad financial system anG the
way to attack them is to 20 at the
cause, ana when that is removed and
the financial question settled on a
righteous basis, these other questions
will fade away and settle themselves.
The SilverRepublican party will keep
up Its organization, because we think
by so doing we can be OF greater help
to the cause. by so doing we can
hold together great body OF men
who will vote for Il DemocSlt, provid-
that he he nominated OIL Il Silver
platform, and il that is the principal
issue: but these men would not vote
that way if the party disbanded."
@What will be the issues in the
next campaign Mr.. Teller was asIi-
ed.
The Democrats will make silver the
leading issue. They will probably
have strong declaration on the sub
jcct Of trusts, but the anti trust ques.
| ton will not Ovcrshadow the silver
question. Tie Chicago platform will
be adopted with some alterations.
Tho silver cause has not lost an inch
OF ground,bu on the contrary, the
cause has been gaining strength since
the last election. For the prcscn t the
war question overshadows all others,
but that Is only temporary matter"
When asked who the candidates
will be III the next campaign, he said
they would be Bryan and Mckinley.
Mr.. Teller spoke highly OF Brym's
ability, and said that he expected to
see him nominated by the unanimous
voice OF the convention.
"Those so.catied Democrats, such
rs the Whitneys and Belmonis, and
other wealthy money getters, who
supported Mckinley will do so again.
But all the money in the country
cannot deieat Bryan's nomination
and when nominated he will receive
the support OF all the silver and re-
form forces
