WHAT REPUBLICANS SAY.

Long before caucus days at Helena,
the STANDARD expressed the opinion
that ii would serve all senatorial aspir-
ants right if the n at Washington
were to send them home, tn perfect
their title here before setting up N
claims in Washington. AS the rival
aspirants approach the national capt.
tai, eastern newspapers are giving ex-
preston to this opinion. 1t. Louis re-
publican paper. the Globe Democrat,
says:
II il difficult to see how the senate can take
any action with regard To the Montana imuddle.
There is as yet no legally organized Legislature In
Of senator's. The complication is an unfortunate
one. but IL cannot he adjusted by any arbitrary
proceeding at Washington.
Another republican newspaper, the
Washington Post, which ranks as the
organ of the administration, remarks:
The democrats Of the Montana Legislature got
together sufficiently yesterday to elect ex-Deie-
gate Martin Maginnis and W.. a. Clark To the
United states senate. so the two sets are now
complete, and will soon he knocking for admis-
sion. Maginnis ought tn Ice let In ON general

quired.

As soon as MI. Power was chosen as

Colonel Sanders. once the Northern

sent his resignation. with a string to il,

THE OLD FIGHT.

Representative Stewart, of Vermont,
has introduced "a bill in the house de-
claring Mormons ineligible to vote at
any election or to hold any civil office
in the territories of the United States,
or to Dc n~aturalized as citizens of the
United states or settle upon any public
lands. Voters are required to make
oath that they do not belong to the
Mormon church AS preliminary to ex-
ercising the right of suffrage. This Is
n sweeping measure, and it il extremely
doubtful il it becomes a law at the
present session of congress-. The Nor
MOI church has a strong lobby at
Washington and no efforts will be
spared to defeat the bill. The u~niitness
of latter day saints to hold office was
never more aptly illustrated than
i'm reports submitted to the Utah legis-
lature yesterday. The territorial
treasury is empty while warrants to the
of nearly two hundred thousand
dollars have been issued The recent
startling of official rotten
ness at salt Lake will also be remem-
bered. In the face of all this. in the
face of the facts as proven by the in
vestigation ut Salt Lake City, the Nor
mon prophets nave the assurance to is
sue another lying 'declaration' i'm
which their sanity qualities and love
for the national government are set
forth. This latest address is being in
dustriously~ circulated among members
Of congress at Washington, for the pur-
pose Of advancing Ctah's chances for
admission into the union. Utah under
Mormon rule is about as ripe to enter
the sisterhood of states AS these latter
day saints are to enter the Kingdom of
Heaven.
