RED FIRE IN MoRMoNDoM.
Salt Lakes Election Creating
Great Excitement.

SALT LAKE, Utah, Feb. 9.-The cam
paign for the city election here has been
one of the fiercest ever conducted. 1t
really began last June, and has been
growing in intensity ever since, ending.
on the part of the Liberals, with an i'm
mense torchlight parade Friday night,
i'll which were 1000 men. Illumina.
tons, bunting and fireworks made the
city blaze of light. Last night the
Mormon party had their closing demon
stration, and, though inferior in num-
berS to the Liberals, it was fine sight.
The Mormons had something under
5000 men in line. There was much less
decoration and illumination, but an eie-
CANT display of fireworks. The cam
paign has been great political edu-
Gator, something needed here and never
before had to any extent. Thursday
night great number of Liberals ilu-
minated and decorated their residences
and burned colored fires. The sky was
ablaze from the glare. The election oc-
ours tomorrow, and the Liberals are
confident that they will carry it by
nearly 1000 majority. The Mormons
are also confident of success, but make
no estimates as to majorities.
The Associated Press correspondent
to-day asked f. S. Richards, chairman
of the Peoples party and one OF the
leading MOrmonS of the territory:
"What will be the effect upon admis-
sion of the territory into the Union of
either the defeat or victory of the Peo-
pies party at this election?'
''1t should have no effect" said he,
"for we are entitled to statehood re-
gardless of local politics. Doubtless the
peoples defeat would tend to remove
liberal opposition to statehood: for the
liberal party is anxious for statehood as
soon as we are, but not until it shall
gain absolute political domination of
Utah and her cities. But this act should
not influence the federal government,
for it is, monStrouS to make the SOW
erelgnty of a commonwealth the play
thing of local factions"
Regarding the question of whether
the election of the Peoples party would
retard the progress of the territory and
immigration, he said: mo, Salt Lake
is now one of the most safely progressive
cities in America, and that progress
would be continued and encouraged.
immigration of desirable citizens of all
classes and investment of canital would
continue as in the past. Only fictitious
or evil progress and the influx OF the
diSSOlute or idle element which attaches
itself to boom would be stayed.''
''Does your party favor admission into
the Union?'
"Yes, if admission can be had upon
the basis of equal rights of all citizens
whose conduct is in accordance with
law"

The House Will Give It a Lit
tie Attention This
Week.
Serious Opposition From the
Democrats Is Not Ex-
pected.
The Blair Chestnut Still Has
the Right Of Way in the i.
Senate.
Morgan, Dorchester and War
moth Are Still on the
Rack.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 9.-The new code
of rules will be the chief subject of in
tereSt to come before the house of rep
resentatives for consideration this week.
1t is the intention of the committee on
rules to call it up as soon as possible and
ask the house so to limit debate as that
ii NIL action ON the subject may be
reached within two or three days.
While there are many features of the
new rules that are obnoxious to the
Democrats. it's not probable that the
opposition will be manifested otherwise
than by speeches and by adverse votes
upon them, provided the minority are
afforded what they regard as reasonable
time for discussion. Probably by the
time the rules are disposed of the COM
mittee on elections will have reported
the contested election case of AtEin-
son VS.. PendletOn from West
Virginia, and action upon that
case will consume the remain
der of the week, with possible exec p
ton in favor of the unfinished business,
which is the bill tn extend the circula-
tion of the national banks. There are.
indications that the Blair educational
bill, which has the right of say in the
senate, will run through the week, and
perhaps longer period before vote is
reached upon it. The author has not
yet finished his speech, and numper
of senators are ready to follow him
with set speeches on the same subject.
The bill in charge of Senator Platt, to
organize territorial government for
Oklahoma, will probably be disposed of
in the morning hours, and any Odd ends
OF time Herewith remaining will be de-
uoted to miscellaneous ''unobjection-
able" business ON the calendar. In the
executive sessions. the senate, it is ex-
pected, will consider the nomin ,tions
of Gen. Morgan, to be- commissioner of
Indian affairs; DR.. Dorchester, to be
superintendent of Indian schools, and
eX-Gov. Warmoth, to be collector of
customs at New Orleans. all of which
are subject to controversy. "a

TOO OFTEN ABSENT.
Legislators Whose Seats Are

Growing Dusty.
Special to the Globe.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 9.-The general
public has sort of lingering remnant
of recollection of the fact that sena-
tors are sent to Washington to legislate.
1t does not appear that all Northwestern,
senators share this view of their posi-
ton, being perfectly happy in absenting
themselves from their seats on any or
all occasions. Even when matters uf the
most vital Importance I'D the Northwest
are likely to come up, they do not re-
gard it az duty to be present and par
ticipate for the benefit, or otherwise. of
their own part of the country. Senators
Washburn and Pettigrew are both al,-
sent at the present time. The quest ion
of the confirmation or rejection of
the nomination of Gen. Morgan
as Indian commissioner is ex-
pected to be called up by
the senate at any time. There will be
lively fight made, and the votes of
these two men might turn the scale
either way. Washburn is favorable to
the commissioners confirmation. but
does not appear to care much whether
he. is confirmed or not, or ne would re-
main here. What Pettigrew's views on
the subject may be are yet to be ascer-
tained, but he is probably favorabla to
the confirmation of the nominee of the
administration in spite of the intense
opposition it has aroused. An impress
sion seems to prevail that Morgan will
be turned down by the senate. His op-
pOnents are confident of success, and
his friends are saying nothing.

CHAMBERLAIN, S. D., Feb. 9-Much
excitement exists among the boomers

in anticipation of the opening to settle

morrow. People are steadily arriving
by trains. prairie Schooners, ETC., and by
morning the east side of the Missouri
river promises to be crowded with peo-
pie who will cross to the reservation
side of the river as soon as news is re-
ceived that the lands are open for set
tlement. Townsite spectators are
numerous, and are hourly holding Sc
eret meetings. Companies from Huron,
Mitchell and this city are all preparing
to locate tOwnsite opposite here
on the reserva ton, and 1t will
be hard fight between them as to who
shall obtain possession of the coveted
tOwnsite. The matter bids fair to be-

that about fifty boomers had crossed to

gone back to the interior, where they had
erected buildings, and were preparing to

favorable for the opening to settlement

MADE A MISTAKE.
An Accident Results from a
Brakeman's Error.

brakeman Error.
HARRISBURG, Pa, Feb. 9.-An open
switch caused a wreck on the Northern
Central railway near this city this
morning. At Marsh's Run is long
siding, and two sections of a freight
train running ahead of the Pacific eX-
press. due here at o'clock, had orders
to lay upon the siding until the passen-
ger train had passed. The rear brake
man of the first section left the switch
open, thinking the second section would
follow. but instead it ran in upon all
other switch. Before the brakeman
could remedy his mistake the passenger
train rounded curve and dashed into
the locomotive of the second freight
train, which had run upon the siding to
point opposite the open switch. All
day the track has been blocked by
twisted and broken rails, demolished
locomotives and other debris. Arthur
Emerton, of Baltimore, was the only
one killed. He was fireman of the ex
press train. Isaac Stermer. the engi-
neer Of the express. and Jacob S. VagIe,
engineer of the second freight, are Sc
riOuSly hurt. but will probably recover.
The express messengers, Capt. j. A.
McCahen and j. II. Pownall, of Harris
burg, were injured, but not seriously.
Several others were scratched and
bruised. The negligent brakeman dis
appeared after the accident.
