The Republican and Democrat
ic county conventions for Custer
county have met, nominated their
respective tickets and adjourned,
and we presume the country is
saved !
AS to the different people put
on the two tickets there is little
complaint to enter for most of
them are prominent citizens of
the county and taxpayers, and
should have the welfare of the
county at heart. We are per-
sonally acquainted with all of
the nominees on both tickets,
with perhaps one or two excep-
tions,-their qualifications, etc,
but on this part of the campaign
there is no protest to enter, but
other grave and vital interests
are involved-issues of vast i'm
portance to the people of Custer
county-the silver question:
question that means much to all
our people, to one and all.
The Republican party met in
convention in Challis on Oct. 1st,
and adopted and endorsed the
National and State Republican
platforms which openly and bold
ly proclaim for a single gold
standard. Are the people of
Custer county ready to sacrifice
their own principles for which
they have been fighting for so
long and endorse a gold stand
ard We think not. Silver is
just as much an issue today as it
was two, four, six and eight
years ago, and just as vital to
the interests of our people. We
have heard some Republicans say
that the silver question was a
dead issue, but they evidently
have not read what Hanna and
Mckinley say about it. In pub
lie speeches the great Republican
leaders proclaim that silver is
the paramount issue-and not
Imperialism.
Few ever dreamed a few years
ago that any political party in
Custer county would have the
audacity to proclaim for a single
gold standard. Yet it is so, and
the question is now up to the
voters whether they will sup
port the Democratic party and
free coinage of silver, or the Re-
publican party and gold. The
question is whether they want to
see the mines, mills and smelters
in operation or in idleness. If
they prefer idleness then vote
for Mark Hanna.
The Republican nominees of
Custer county by platform are
pledged to support Mckinley
and gold. They cannot say this
year that they favor silver at
any ratio.
Another thing to consider is
the Legislative part of the two
tickets, and it is of vast impor-
tance this year. On the Demo
cratic side it means the return of
Hon. Fred. T. Dubois, Idaho's
silver champion, to the United
States Senate. On the Repub-
lican side it means the continu-
ance of Geo. L. Shoup. in the
Senate, Idaho's gold champion.
Voters of Custer county in less
than a month these issues will
be decided by the ballot-box.

SanFrancisco, Oct. by a
decision rendered today in the
United States circuit court of APP
peals the ten Idaho strikers who
were convicted of a conspiracy to
obstruct a train carrying the
mails, will secure their release
from the San Quentin peniten-
tiary.
The case is one growing out of
the big strike in Idaho in 1899.
and the destruction of the mill at
at Bunker Hill of the Sullivan
mining company.
In their decision Judges Glib
ert, Ross and Morrow call atten-
ton to the fact that the indict-
ment does not charge that the
conspiracy had for it's purpose
knowingly to obstruct the mails.
Continuing the judges say
Tt is alleged that they willful-
ly and knowingly delayed and
obstructed the movement of the
train. While it is true that the
laws make the railways of the
United States postal roads for
carrying the mail, and d large
number of the passenger trains
are engaged in carrying the mail,
it is nevertheless true that many
passenger trains do not carry
the mail.
THE defendants in this case
are not charged with the overt
act of obstructing the passage of
the mails, but with a conspiracy
1t is the confederation and con-
spiracy to commit an offense
against the United States that
they are called upon to answer.
AS charged in the indictment,
the conspiracy is declared to
have for its purpose to knowing
ly hinder and delay the move
ment and passage of a certain
railway car and train, which car
it is subsequently alleged carried
the mails of the United States.
1t is no offense against the Unit
ed States to hinder and delay the
passage of railway car and
and consequently it is no offense
to conspire or confederate for
that purpose Such an offense
must be dealt with under the
laws of the state.
''The conspiracy as charged
in the Indictment lacks an es-
sential ingredient to an offense
against the United States, to-wit:
That the defendants knew that
the mails of the United States
were carried upon the train.
which they conspired to obstruct.
1t may be that they all had such
knowledge or that the facts and
circumstances shown in the evi-
dence were sufficient to charge
them with such knowledge, but
that does not dispense with the
necessity of setting forth in the
Indictment all the elements of
the wrongful act which they con-
spired to commit. F"
The decision quotes from Haw-
kins as follows
I'm an indictment nothing ma
terial shall be taken by intend
ment or implication"
Continuing the court says
1.-The above authority sustains
the proposition that an indict-
ment for conspiracy to commit
an offense against the United
States must charge every ele-
ment of the offense as fully as if
the indictment was for it's perpe-
