It would also bo discreet (or the sllb

they have to rvprcfcnt ihein at the next
coiiveiition. It in probable that the
tueinU'is attending the national asso

pected such action as'wmt taken, it is
unlikely that they wonl4 think to send
representatives.
The urgency for action lies in the fact
thit there ate many stockmen not effect
ed either way by the question. They are
of the Last, middle west and south. No
range opens to their herds and while
they have a voice in influencing action,
they are more likely to be governed by
such presentation of the case as seems
to them most reasonable. Miould only
the representatives of large companies
g from the west, it might easily be in
fe rred that tie pieponderance of sen
timent in the west was for leasing.
If this question were left to the real
men effected, only people of the south
west, west and northwest would have a
voice. In these regions the range is to
lie found. The residents there will suf
fer or prosper by any action taken.' They
should have the guiding voice, and when
Congress is called upon to move, it is to
be hoped that the people of the west will
be accorded 1 he balance of jower. (should
this be the case and no immature judg
ment prevail, theie will be no range
leasing.
lint to the active often falls victory,
and il the stockmen of this region do not
make thein-elves felt in the National
councils, their interests are not absolute
ly sale.

The once great? Populist party is j
now without representation in me
I fnitcil Stales Senate, likewise the Sil
ver Iicpuhlicitiis. Senator Iubois, oi
Idaho, w ho walked out of the Republi
can convention at St. Louis in IS1.)1,!, to
gether with Senator Teller of Colorado,
and a few others, have loudly an
nounced that they are all Democrats
now, and Senator lleltfelt, also of Idaho,
w ho was elected as a populist, has w rii
ten a letter to the state chairman of
that parly iu his stale, urging hint to
amalgamate all his following with the
Itemociats. Iu the meantime there are
two lonely men in the Senate, Wel
lington of Maryland, and McLaurin of
North Carolina. The former is burred
out of the Republican caucus and the
latter out of the Peimsjratic. Hut return
ing to the matter of populists going baik,
to the fold. We cannot see how they
can consistently embrace the I 'oni
on at ic faith, for they left it because it
was ' rotten to the core" and the "lie
publicans wore all thieves," and they
could not w ell go to that party. How
ever, with the I'omocrais it is, "as long.
as iho lamp holds out to burn the vilest
sinner niav return."
