GRAHAM is oEPOsED.

President Mckinley has removed
John c. Graham from his place as
postmaster of Provo.
The pOstmaster-ed dismissal. in
the face of friendly committee report
tc congress, ought to convince Mr..
Graham that ne has misjudged the
attitude of the administration. He
and his friends have been try
ing to persuade the people Of
Utah that a Republican bargain
had been concluded whereby men in
his position would not be molessted
provided Utah delivered its vote to the
party.
The storm starters and their support
ers of the Graham persuasion were SO
pleased with the result of their work
UP to date that they forgot to dodge
when the inevitable kick back came.
If they continue to preach the dis
honest doctrine of political salvation
through a deal with the washington
headquarters Of the Republican party.
no better refutation need be made than
Mr.. Graham's own horrible example.
Of course. it grieves The Herald TO
see Mr.. Graham hoisted by a Republi-
can petard; but the grief is somewhat
assuaged by the knowledge that Mr..
Graham has insisted on lighting the
fuse of that same petard while ne sat
on it. He knows now that it was
loaded.

GET TOGETHER I'M IDAHO.

1t augurs we'll for the future Of the
silver parties of Idaho that their rep
resentatives in the conference with Mr..
Bryan here were so completely in
agreement as TO the necessity and ad-
vantage of working together in the ap-
preaching campaign.
When the enemies Of silver and hon
est government are 50 thoroughly in
accord. it behooves the voters who be-
Heve in reform to get together, regard
less Of minor differences, and reclaim
the nation from the combination now
footing the people through congress
sional legislation approved by plant
executive.
When the trusts and syndicates can
work 80 amieably in their division Of
the spoils they take out Of the public
pocket, there should be 20 difficulty in
effecting a combination of the victims
for mutual protection. It makes no
difference whether a monopoly is con-
trolled by Republicans or Democrats,
it should be pilloried by public opinion
and compelled 70 disgorge any unlaw-
full advantage it has secured.
Such a result can he effected only by
g union OF the forces opposed to spe-
eial privileges, whether they are Sc
cured by individuals or combinations
Of capital. And that result can only
be secured by the harmonious union of
the reform forces aligned with the
Democrats, silver Republicans and
Populsts. The three parties as now
constituted are all working for COM
mon erd-the restoration to the people
of rights that have been seized by a
few INSCRIPTIONS aggregations of cap
HaI. The reforners can only hope for
success by combined action, and they
are sure of success when they do work
together as they are now working In
Idaho.
Nor the least promising feature Of
the situation in the Gem state is the
recognition OF the services rendered the
silver cause by Hon. Fred 7. Dubois
His is a name 10 stamp the sincerity
Of the fusion movement with the APP
proval Of every silver man in the inter
mountain country He has been tried
in a way that leaves no doubt as to lis
devotion TO the cause.

Dante are contained in germ all the
