Salt Lake evening Democrat. [volume] (Salt Lake City, Utah) 1885-1887, 1886-10-29

THE Republican organ this morning
with Its usual spirit of unfairness towards
everything Democratic, grossly misrep.
resented the proceedings OF the Demo.
cratic Club meeting last evening. While
it fairly reported the speech of Colonel
Ferry, knowing that by any posi-
bility he cannot be elected) il
falsiticd the remarks of every other
speaker OF the evening. In regard
to the last speaker it wilfully lied, for the
reporter was not in the room when the
remarks were being made, but was after
ward, at his solicitation, furnished with
an outline by the speaker himself, with
which his report was directly at variance.
1t is quite evident that the reporter
substituted the version of Repub-
ican office-holder under Democratic
principal for that OF the sneakers.
In regard to the Mormon morning pa
per's rebuke, the speaker acknowledges
that it was merited, and humbly ex-
presses the hope that his earnestness
will never again lead him tosuch error.
He has not even the poor apology of
precedent, never having listened to the
harangueful profanity which character
lied Tabernacle sermons to the faithful
in the halcyon days of yore.

GLORY AND SHAME.

The first object that greets the eyes OF
the traveller crossing the Isthmus Of
Panama from east to west, when he
lands at Colon, or Aspinwall as it is gem
orally known, is a magnificent statue in
bronze, OF heroic size, representing
Columbia" 1t is figure OF Christie.
pher Columbus shielding an. indian mai
den, and is such beautiful work of art
that II attracted the attention of the
Empress Eugene in Paris, where it was
first exhibited, and she purchased il and
presented it to the United States of
Colombia. 1t arrived in due time and
was landed from the ship onthe beach
and for years was PROSTATE in the sand
at once "the glory and the shame" of the
people OF that country, until few wears
ago some public spirited citizen procured
the building OF small brick foundation
on which the statue now stands. This
glit was made in the palmy days of the
French Empire, when it was supposed 70

depositing a red rose on the resting place OF
the grim old commoner, whose detestation
of shams would have led him to swear
roundly at such an exhibition of politico-
dramatic claptrap in his lifetime, was as
clear a case of posing for effect as his
cheers for Powderly' at Pittsburg were an
ostrich-Hke bid for the labor vote.
This is the same Mr.. Blaine who sat
down to the Delmonico dinner given by Jay
Gould and other millionRires in 7884-much
to his subsequent sorrow. No wonder that
after singing the praises of protection he
took the train to visit his coal lands His
'audacity' is equal to anything. A good
deal of the Doodle that supports his cam
paigns comes from coal barons, who 'regu-
late production and raise prices four times
in season, leaving the 'lroteoted' miners
to toll at from 80 cents to 81 day.
"But with all his 'smartness' Mr. Blaine
is apparently not smart enough to know
that the people know him and that his bril-
liant career is behind him.

be good policy to cultivate friendly rela-
tions with American Republics, in the
hope that some one OF them would trans
fer allegiance to Napoleon's puppet,
Maximilian, and thus plant monarchy
on American soil. The history OF the
statue OF Liberty Enlightening the
World is in many respects similar to
the foregoing, especially as it is at
once the glory and the shame of the
country. The shame in it, though, is far
greater than attached to the other, for
this statue was built by contribution of
the poor people of France, in millions OF
cases being but a sou or cent, and the
grand work was presented to the people
OF America at time when the people of
France had just thrown off the yoke OF
Empire, and were struggling through the
infantile and stormy period of Republic,

How was it received?
The paper on which the true history of
the disgraceful affair is ever written will
reflect the blush OF shame in the face OF
the writer. Hounded by the press OF the
country and the popular will, Republi-
can Administration finally agreed to give
a site for the noble work, and stopped
short at that. The great change in the
political feelings of the people of the
country enabled Democratic paper

LAST night when the Salvation ar

LAST night when the Salvation army had
finished singing its hymn of invitation, and
the large bass drum and cymbals were still,
man with soiled face and long hair rose
from his seat and advanced to the front.
II am Arizona jack" he said, "and l
number the Injuns I've scalped on the
plains by dozens, but henceforth I'll be a
scout in ther religious camp and scalp sin
ners in ther cause of the Lord" When he
had said this ne was lead to the mourner's g
bench by hallelujah lass, while the rest of
the salvationists joined in chorus of

The above is fair specimen OF the
work performed by this travesty on re-
lgion, leaving out their cardinal princi-
pie, which is collection, and should serve
to turn, not only those who are Christians
against it, but all who in any manner
have desire to experience the Joy of a
true conversion.

A NEW West Texas industry has
started at Cotulla, LaSalle County.
1t is a mesquite country, covered
with miles and miles of prickly pear.
A local firm is under contract TO ship
TO Tyler, Tex, a number of carloads
of the cactus. A factory has been
erected there in which it will be crushed
threaded and dressed. Its oil will be used
as lubricant, its fiber for rope and
the husk for paper, of which latter it
is calculated that a very strong, brown
article will be produced. This is the
first carload Of the vegetable ever
shipped. Its only anterior use has been
as food for cattle after the thorns are
skinned off, and in furnishing water in
times of drouth, of which fluid it con-
tains great quantities.
