The Uiree reform parties of Iowa bave

Senaton Carter of Montana, and Shotip
, of Idaho are just about to bid adieu to
I lie republican party. They have lieguu
to ifet their even open sioce they find
flint the Dinjrley tariff bill is all in the
' interests of the east to the exclusion
of every other port of the country.
Senator Pettitfrew, who had a -partial
stroke of paralysi a couple of days ago
while engaged in a heated debate on the
floor of the senate, is at this date report
ed to be so much improved by yester
day's dispatches that tie uus able td be
at his labor again, having entirely re
gained hi speech.
fine thing the reform forces done for
Oms state of Nebraska last January
when they went iuto power, and that
was to rout that ping of highway rol
lwrs that hits infettted (lie slate house
lor the taut quarter of a century. Yet,
the leaders of tne republican party are
only in their proper tnoode wlien they
are hurling sin h flmgs as, ,,rciarclnsU"
''('ranks" &e. Who ought to have the
credit for doing the job? the ; republican
arty or the reform forces.
What great chunks of prosperity the
people are enjoying. Those who voted
for McKiuUy and the single gold stand
ard must feel hilarious over the future
propocU in the United States fur the
next four yours. Yet there are a certain
class of people in this as well as in every
other community that get out and yell
for the republican party, high proction
mid the single gold standard (for the
trusts and combines), and they don't
know where or how they will get the
r.ext meal of vituals to eat.

Senate Ad
journ. Hot fieaeter Will Retrieve All Tee Error
Made By Not Follow lug Teller and His
CoUracuei Out of the ML LonU
Convention.
WASlUXfiTON, June 23. A scene
as sensational and almost aa dramatic
as that preeeated in St. Louis when Tel
ler lad tlie silver hosts from the Republi
we) ranks will be enacted in the senate
Wfore it reaches its final adjournment.
Seoator Carter of Montana, ex-chair
man of the Republican national commit
tea and Senator Shoup of Idaho will re
nounce their allegiance to the Republi
can party and declare themselves as
ready to support the principles of the
free silver Republicans. They will come
out wiuarely for the free coinage of ail
ver and will sharply and clearly as pa
rate themselves from the party with
which they have heretofore been identi
tied. This act will be the culmination
'if a series of moves now being made by
thee men.
They have not been blind to the sig-
niflomnce of event in Idaho, Montana
4 the adjacent Western state nor
have they fulled to note tlie effect of
Yetcs against the I'ettigrew, anti-trust
Amendment and the Canon amendaient
asoviding for uo export bounty on agn
cultural products.
rWnator Carter staled today that he
was very much dinsatislled with the way
his constituent and the people of the
weet generally were Ming treated by
those responsible for tariff legislation.
"Of course nothing can be said at
tfce line," tie remarked, "a toe bill Is
not finality, but there are indications
that it w4ll deal unfairly with the peo
pie of the west. The wool schedule haa
not been decided upon, bat in its present
state it k anything but satisfactory"
Senator Sfceup will follow him la
every move and wiH ha hi ally in thfc
second senatorial revolt la the RepuWi
can ranks. There were many confer
ences in the capitol today.
Senators Carter, Jiay and Perkins
conferred for some length of time with
Senator Canon of Utah. Later, Senator
Carter had a long conference with J. 8.
Clarkson, manager of one of narrtson
campaigns for the presidency. Senator
('arters departure from the house of the
Republican will he made as impressive
as possible, Carter Is always theatrical.
He has often regretted that he did not
participate in the onward march of the
free silver Republicans at St. Louis.
He will retrieve all errors of omission,
however, by his exit from the Republi
can section of the senate chamber, at
the time when the fate of the great dis
tinctive Republican measure may be
trembling in the balance.
