The Democrats of Missouri,
Kentucky, Georgia, California and
Vermont held their state conven-
tions on Thursday, and not one of
them had any statement to make
favoring the free and unlimited
coinage of silver at the ratio of 16
to l. The Chicago platform was
vaguely endorsed by all, but there
is no importance attached to that
fact. The Democratic conventions
of four years ago and two years
ago declared unequivocally for the
restoration of silver to its old legal
status by this government alone,
but now the burning issue of its
last presidentialc lcampaign is passed
by without the smallest mention in
their platforms. This all goes to
show that when the Democratic
National Convention meets ma
jority of the delegates will prob
ably follow the example set by the
state conventions mentioned. They
will favor u financial plank en-
bodying a nebulous demand for
free coinage and denunciation of
the national banking system, and
the PILoT does not believe that
even Bryan's influence will be
great enough to secure an outright
declaration worded like that of 1896.
The current of public opinion is
simply directing the Democratic
politicians in this matter. The
money question has been forced to
the rear, by logic of events, and 1T
cannot be made paramount this
time no matter how earnestly any
party or individual may desire it..

News of the Republican victory

News of the Republican victory
in Oregon has been received at
Washington with the greatest
qualification. Notwithstanding the
recent stumping tour of that state
by Mr.. Bryan, the result shows
that the people of the Pacific coast
are not going to be led away this
year by mere oratory, but that they
are studying facts and conditions
for themselves and realize that
prosperity is better than theory,
and that good times and plenty of
work are far more substantial than
discomfort and idleness.

When Colorado sends manu-
factured article outside the state
and receives cash back as payment
for it, it means success. When
Colorado sends cash out of the
state and gets the manufactured
articles from some other state rs
equivalent for it, it is not success
so far as Colorado is concerned.

Does syms Remember2.

Iieut.,D ID. L. Bailey is we'll known
in Gilmore county and highly re.
spected and honored by all old,
timers. He has sent the following
for publication;
Caldwell, Idaho, Sept. Is, 1900.
My attention has been called TO
an article in the Gilmore County Re-
publican, criticizing the statement
of 9. A. Towne, wherein he stated
that the flag on Admiral Dewey's
flag ship was dipped in salute to
the flag of the Philippine Republic.
| wish to say that | was on the
Olympia with several Of the LIST.
Idaho boys, among them was Will
liam ii. B. Brandenberg (the only
name | can recall) when | saw the
American flag dipped in salute, as
a ship carrying the flag Of the Phil
ippine Republic passed her. | asked
no questions nor was any explana-
tons given. 1t was not strange as
salutes were going on all the time.
! will ask the Republican editor
if ever he knew of the two armies
assisting each other in guard and
outpost duties. Does he remember
when we were in the trenches on
August 9th and both army out
posts stood together and watched a
common foe? Does he remember
when common signal (taking the
place of the regular army counter
sign) was agreed on so there would
be no danger in changing piokets2
Does be remember that they passed
back and forth through our lines
with their outposts? That we took
turn with them watching; that we
ate with them and fraternized with
them as much as we could, consid.
ering our inability to talk with
them? Does he forget the mutual
courtesies that were exchanged be-
tween us for the first two months
of our sojourn on the island.
He has perhaps forgotten that we
had our ammunition under their
guard and trusted them MS we trust
ed each other until later on when
we decided to hold the island.
| don't desire to get into a con-
troversy on this or any other politi-
cal matter. | am not in politics
in any degree, only as citizen and
lover of my country and it's honor,
but we can only love it in its noble
attributes, such as it displayed in
going to the help of the helpless
and not as crusher of desire for
independence in a weaker people.
If we could do all this and still
claim that they were not our allies
the little matter of dipping the flag
would not indicate anything. The
Republican may be right; it may
not have been gun boat but the
salute was given and at that time
nobody there expected we wanted
to keep the island.

An eccentric clergyman in Cornwall
was much annoyed by the habit which
some members of his congregation had OF
looking round to see late corners. After
enduring it for some time he said, on en-
terig the reading desk one day:
Brethren, I regret to see that your
attention is called away from your re-
ligious duties by pour natural desire to
see who comes in behind o I propose
henceforth to save you the trouble by
naming zach person who comes in late"
He then began: Dearly beloved" but
paused half way to interpolate, "Mr. s.
with his wife and daughter"

"oLD MooRE's" PREDICTIONS.

In his London almanac for 1900 "Od
Moore predicted more than one great
war, the assassination of a monarch, and
a terrible famine in India, and, as all
these predictions proved true. many per-
ons not only in Europe but also in this
country IA been for some time curious
to know what kind of predictions he
would make in his almanac for 1901.
Their curiosity can now be satisfied, for
his almanac for the coming year has
Just appeared.
Here are the principal predictions in 1t:
In January there will be a formidable
agitation in France and sever attack
will be made upon the republic.
In February and March most notable
events will take place in the extreme
east, and India will threaten to rsie ur
