SHOULD NOT BE HEEDED. ’
“Republicans,” remarks the Humboldt Standard, “should not be caught
by the absurd charges that are being
circulated by the Democrats concerning
the conduct of the war, for no other purpose than to affect the Congressional
campaign. The yellow Examiner now
charges McKinley with being responsible for all the sicknesss and hardships
of the recent campaigns because he
does not compel Alger to resign before
even his conduct has been investigated.
This would be unjust. If the commission finds the fault with Alger it will
then be high time to get him out of
office. The President would havea fine
time if he should ask for the resignation of every officer who is attacked by
such papers as the Examiner. No man
was moré roundly abused for not jumping intoa war with Spain on the start
when we were not prepared for it; but
the same papers that abused and bullyragged McKinley then were afterwards
compelled to admit that he had shown
rare wisdom and statesmanship in putting off the declaration and refusing to
recognize the Cuban Republic. So it
will turn out now. All we need todo
is to wait for a thorough and impartial
examination and the report of unprejudiced men to fix the blame for whatever shortcomings are to be found in
the camps and in the field. There
may have been, and most likely were,
individuals in authority who-were both
inefticient-and--dishonest; but the results prove, beyond question, that the
general management of the war was
unusually wise and good. This has been
recognized by the world’s greatest experts. Aman or a public journal that
would attempt to lessen the miliiary
glory of this country for partisan purposes is a scoundrel whom it were base
flattery to call a knave.”

He Therefore Declines That Party's Nomination as District Attorney.
TRuoKEE, Cal., Sept. 27, 1898.
Watrter N. Monro, Esq., Secretary Peo= Party Convention, Grass Valley,
al:
Dear Sir—Your favor of the 5th inst.
is at hand, notifying me that I have
been nominated by acclamation for the
office of District Attorney by the Popalist Convention, and giving assurance
that I could be elected if-I will make
the campaign and stand for office. My
friends of the People’s Party in Nevada
county have always been so loyal tome
in the past that I feel it a trial to deCline to do anything which they could
imagine would be a favor to them. I
shall ever remember with sincere gratitude their loyalty and devotion, and
shall never find it in my heart to say
one word that will intentionally wound
their feelings, assail the principles for
which we have mutually battled, or
cause them to regret the confidence
they have ever manifested toward me.
Nevada county has always kept in the
middle of the road. It has always
hoped that the People’s Party was
destined to achieve a triumphant vicover the despotisms of plutocrucy. No
one has been a more sanguine or radical believer.in this than I have. But I
have arrived ata point where I feel
taat wo have been betrayed by our
leaders, ruined by—fatse friends, and
placed in a position where it ‘will be impossible for us. to achieve success in
State or National elections. Misled
by the idea that the election -of a few
men was of greater importance than
the success of Populist principles, a
score of bright men whom we almost
worshiped as trae reformers are today
‘trying to convince Populists that the
Democratic Party is the party of reform, and that our duty is to vote for
Mr. Maguire for Governor. They may
be right,and I may be wrong, but it
would be impossible for me to believe
that the Democratic Party is the party
of reform, or even one of the reform
parties. .
I came to the Péople’s Party from
the Republican ranks, and if I must
ing classes, if I must admit that the
Populist Party is too badly shattered
to ever become the dominant party in
America, or even in California, I shall
turn to the Republicans. It seems to
me that all will concede that T. W. H.
Shanahan catinot be elected Governor.
If that is true, every Populist who votes
for him gives half a vote for the Democratic nominee. Almost every person
who joined our party from the ranks of
the Democracy will vote the fusion
ticket. The success of the fusion ticket
is the death of the middle-of-the-road
People’s Party. I have come to the
conclasion that my daty is to vote for
the Republican nominee for Governor.
After making this avowal, you will
readily withdraw my name from your
ticket. Had I not fully made up my
mind to vote for Mr. Gage, I would
have attended your convention and
be sorry to have my friends think that
[ have stated all my reasons for voting
the Republican State ticket, but I feel
that I have given reason enough to
warrant you in withdrawing my name,
and a reason that will appeal, on election day, to many a true People’s Party
man. Respectfall yours,

SILVER IN SAN FRANCISCO.
Enough on Hand in the Mint for Two
Frank A. Leach, Superintendent of
the San Francisco Mint, has received
General McGlashan Is No Longer no official advices regarding the proposed shipment of 10,000,000 ounces of
silver to the mint. © He says the details
of the matter will undoubtedly be
guarded as a secret to insure no untoward accidents. The silver will be
used to meet the legal demand for the
monthly coinage of $1,500,000, the
bullion supply here being exhausted.
“We are ready to renew silver coinage at the mint as soon as bullion shall
be furnished,’ said Superintendent
Leach at his home in Oakland. “While
I have nothing authoritative as to the
shipment as announced in the press
dispatches, I have reason to anticipate
it, The last Congress passed a law requiring a monthly silver coinage of
$1,500,000, and the uncoined bullion in
possession of the government is to be
used. I presume that in compliance
with that Act, thisullion is to be sent
to us here, as we had practically finished coining a month ago all thesilver
shipping to the San Francisco Mivt is
to relieve the rush at Philadelphia.
We will be able to handle about $500,$13,000,000, so you see the supply would .
last us about two years,”
