Hall, who is teaching COMMUNICATED. Editor Thk Argus: If you will kindly afford me space in your paper, I will try and express my idea in regard to the so much needed financial legislation. While free coinage of silver would give employment to thousands of people and would put more money in circulation and cause a general revival of business all over the Western States, I do not think that free coinage alone would give to the farmer and business man the low rate of interest necessary in order to carry on their respective business. Un less the government establishes some means whereby the farmers (that could furnish good security) could obtain money at a suitable rate of interest, I do not think a permanent relief from our present financial condition would be obtained. . I heard some talk in Port land to the effect that the free coinage republicans would break loose from the . . i, . ,i .. .L- repuoncans wouia orean loose irom me at East Butte, is in the city this Li ,Undard facti0n 8nd that many of Reni.

It leems that the officers found a "cache" of merchandise sim ilar to that taken from the store, at his residence. Last night Geo. Bagley and Mr. Wheeler went out and placed Dwight Pomeroy under arreBt, charged with complicity in the Bame theft. the populists would join the free silver ttes ana torm a strong party witn a one plank platform. Jf a republican once understands that more money is needed, it will not be long before he will also see the necessity of'getting hold of the mon ey without the process ol the national banks and government bond system. The populists have already come to that understanding and I do not think there are many that would sacrifice the postal saving banks and government loan di rect to the people on land or other se curity for a platform that would only advocate a temporary relief and leave the old bond mill in operation grinding out bonds for the benefit (?) ot the work ingman.
