The Salt Lake Tribune, whose editor
as a candidate for delegate was buried
under nine thousand adverse majority,
takes an exceedingly morbid view Of the
future. It seems to think we have
reached in our national progress q point
Where eldest Night
And Chaos, ancestors of Nature, Eoll
Eternal anarchy
Looking the whole country over" it
says, "and it is as is the ocean when it is
disturbed over all its face by winds that
are not quite hurricanes. There is q
tossing Of water; there are confused seas,
and the currents Of the ocean are turned
from their proper channels. There are
mists and fogs; there are fog horns and
steam whistles sounding in every direc-
ton, and every craft that is out upon the
troubled waters is being pitched and
tossed, some losing their sails, some los
ing their spars, some having their rud-
ders disabled, and all being washed more
or less by the angered seas"
Oh no, brother, it isn't SO bad as that.
The people are all right. They are 60
ing right ahead on clear and straight
course. 1t is only the unworthy leaders
OF q once great party who have been
thrown overheard and are struggling in
fog and darkness. The crew are all on
board. A democratic pilot is up aloft, a
democratic hand is at the helm and the
old ship of state is steering straight into
harbor with colors flying.

POLITICAL.

A dispatch from Cape May says: "The
President and Secretary OF State are having
their last conference before they go their
different ways in the morning, the o0e to
Washington, the other to Bar Harbor.
Blaine has carried the day. 1t ia agreed
that the President ehal command the Sci
ate to adopt.the Aldrich amendment to the
Mckinley bill, and thus reciprocity will be
made a treaty arrangement. The President
ia the treaty making power, and the Secre-
tary of the State frames the treaties. Tnere-
fore reciprocity will be 10 Bane's hands to
deal with. The Mckinley biz, with this
important change, will now 20 through ;
nut its author is robbed of iis honors by
Blaiue's master stroke. More than this,
Mckinley Is taken out of the Presidential
race 10 1892, for Blaine steps 10 as the tariff
eade-. To make himself afgreat man in
bis party Mckinley mus. run for Governor
of Ohio and reclaim tie State from Camp
bell. Blaine will by his agreement With
the President, keep his hands oil the Force
hill. It's foster father, the other man from
Maine, ia welcome, 30 far as Mr.. B aino is
concerned, to all the glory that will be ct
taohed to its passage. The republican leaders
must put 1t through but Blaine will not
help them. He knows that the bill is ur-
popular and that it will be death-blow tG
Reeds aspirations in 1872. Thus is another
strong man put out of the way"
On the other hand dispatch from Cape
Nav to the the New York Herald says
There Is rumor here that President Hal
rison and Secretary Blaine have drifted
further apart on the reciprocity question
during the last twenty-four hours snG that
the long expected crisis between the two
statesmen ia liable to arrive. President
Harrison cannot or will not view Mr.
Blaines scheme 10 the same light as
does the Secretary, and we'll authenticated
reports has 1t that the President has used
some pretty plain language during yester-
days conference"

Bodies Found.

Three bodies were yesterday found hoat-
ing In an unknown barge that was wrecked
of Long Branch few days ago. The cor
oner took charge of the wreck. Her name
or number cannot be ascertained. She may
be coal barge B Is. which belongs to Heisley
& Bros, Newport News. The theory Is
held that she was the barge struck By the
steamer Thingvalls. If that iGthe case, this
barge bad three ca aboard of her. The
names of those on the barge were Captain
Summers, Bob Waters. and man named
Fleming. They left Newport News on Sat
urdsy afternoon at about three O'Clock.
Summers has a wife and three children.
Fleming has child 10 Baltimore. Waters
has son and four daughters living In the
vicinity of Richmond. One of the agents
OF the consiguee falls to recognize any OF the
bodies In the last compartment OF the wreck
as either Summers, Waters or Fleming, but
there seems 10 be nothing to controvert the
theory that Heisley's barge was struck by g
steamer, and that this Is she. There will
be no attempt at investigation, which
would, In fact be impossible.
