The Organizations Making Ready for
 the Celebration.
 The Trades Council met last evening to make final arrangements for the Labor day parade and picnic. Felix McGinness of Union No. 60 was elected grand marshall and the Bakers union will have the right of the line. The line of march which will probably be the same as last year, was left in the hands of the executive commit tee to arrange as were also other details of the parade. The council voted $100 to be awarded as prizes in the various sporting events. It was also announced at the meeting that T. J. Wilson, vice-president of the International Iron Moulders Union of North America had been invited and would probably be present and make an address.

The corps went into camp at Mantle to- day, and through the week the wheels will be made use of daily, not only as means of rapidly carrying dispatches and estab- fishing remote stations, but in all military manoeuvres where cavalry can be em- ployed.
 Major Charles L. Burdett, brigade signal officer, was the originator of the plan and to his energy and perseverance, the corps is indebted for the fulfllment. Months
 ago it was under consideration and fully
 canvassed at brigade headquarters. The
 success of military 'cyeling in France, Eng
 land and Italy naturally attracted the at
 tention ofSprogressive, wide-awake mili- tary officers in this country. At first it was urged that the deplorable condition of our roads made it almost an impossibility, but as the wheel came into more general l use and long and arduous rides were ac- complished by the average wheelman with so little trouble it became evident that even on the American highway the mili- tary bicycle might have place.
 THE WHEEL AT CAMP WATSON. The members of the signal corps are mounted on cushion tired Hartford Safe ties, through the courtesy of MT. David J. Post, secretary of the Hartford Cycle com pany. They are machines admirably | adapted for the work in hand, being ex-
 tremely staunch and strong, and at the 1 same time, on account of their cushion
 tires, easy riding. The corps will carry l 32-caEbre repeating carbines and heavy 1 navy revolvers, furnished by the Coli Arms company. The carbines will be l slung over the shoulder, and the pistols | carried in black leather holsters at the belt Special black 1eggings reaching to the knees will be worn. When on signal duty
 the men will carry the flags in kits slune in the same manner as the carbines.
 The members of the corps have had thei1
 machines for some time, and have beer carefully drilled in the different field ma
 neuvres by Lieutenant Howard Giddings It is expected that the mounted corps will be quite feature of the military display at Camp Watson during the coming week

AoohoO very uedt. 4uls e4eTclSo was W1I- messed by nearly as many people as are usually present on Governors day. Later the Third regiment had 8 dress parade after which came the brigade dress parade. A new feature of these parades of the brigade this season is the consolidation of the machine gun platoons in battery which forms in line on the left of the in fantry and on the right of the artillery.
 The brigade commissary, Major Isaac Bromley, has been very busy since he ar rived at camp. He was the first man on the ground in full uniform
 The Sarsfeld guard had considerable extra baggage, all of which arrived safely at camp early Saturday afternoon. The layout of camp is substantially the same as last year, except that the color line has been extended to the right (wesD to al low for the tents of the new tenth com pany in the First regiment, I, and meas ures over one-third of mile in extent The quartermaster's store houses have been moved to the right against the road ing has been erected. The combination guard house and main guard quarters has been moved nearer the entrance to camp, so that the reliefs not on duty and the officers of the guard are close at hand if needed. The sentinels of the right flank guard will be posted on the west side of the roadway, which will be for the first time entirely within guard lines. The camp comprises between ], 400 and 1,500 tents, all aoored and provided with mattresses for the enlisted men, and cots and mattresses for the officers.
 New insignia were issued to the soldiers in the brigade to-day. They are of brass | and are easily fastened to the front of the fatigue caps. The two guns crossed indi- cate infantry, while the letter indicates the company, and the figure the regiment | of which the soldier is a member. NO RAIN.
 Fortunately no rain has fallen at camp. The clouds were very threatening early Saturday evening, but only few drops of rain fell.
 MILITARY BICYCLING,
 To the First signal corps of the Connect icut National Guard belongs the distinc- ton of being the only military organization in the United States regularly mounted and equipped for field service on bicycles.

INDEPENDENCE DAY.

It's just lis years to-day since the dec
laration Of Independence" prepared by
THOMAS JEFFERSON, the father and founder
of American Democracy, was adopted by
the continental Congress. No other man
of his time could have written it, because
no other man was so deeply imbued with
the rights of man and with the spirit Of
liberty as was he. AS the great charter OF
human freedom it has sunk deep into the
hearts and minds of the people and no overt
or covert attack upon it has diminished its
force as the greatest state paper in exist
ence, or the monumental glory of its author.
Bitterly assailed at the time of its sub
mission in a most acrimonious debate ex-
tending over three day the Declaration of
Independence was received by the patriots
throughout the land with enthusiastic
rejoicing 1t was the cradle song OF the
Democratic republic which had been born
with it. a historian of the day says it was
read to the troops, drawn up under arms,
and to the congregations In churches by
ministers from the pulpit. The tory ele-
ment of the country was completely
silenced, and the inhabitants everywhere,
as the signers had done, pledged to it their
lives, their fortunes, and their sacred honor
To-day after lapse Of more than CEN
fury the instrument is more treasured than
ever before. In city, town, village and
hamlet it is read with reverence and ad-
mirstion. 1t is read with equal admiration
by the learned and unlettered; by the &C
complished scholar and the sprouting
school boy.
The Declaration of Independence was a
fitting climax OF the terrific struggle for
national life, and all the shouts, Donfires
and parades with which we welcome each
anniversary Is but modest appreciation of
its value. AS American citizens and as
Democrats we have every reason to cele-
brate the greatest OF all great observances
Independence Day.

TIE HERALD extends warm welcome to
Mr.. G. Z. DALLIN and his bride Although
he has been away for many years and has
achieved his fame outside the territory, he
belongs to Utah, and we all have an inter-
est in him, as we also feel pride in his
achievements. Utah boys. wherever they
are, in whatever field they operate, do
credit to the land Of their birth and to their
early training. In the schools and colleges
of the East we find them at the head OF
their classes: in art they achieve distinc-
ton, and almost invariably the reports
which come from them are such as to make
US proud that they belong to Utah. As the
papers have frequently noted, Mr.. DALLIN
has attained an envisble position among
artists, his genius and ability as sculptor
placing him among the foremost of Ameri-
can sculptors and giving him name and
fame abroad. He comes back to his old
home, to the scenes of his childhood, and
to his early associates as visitor, and we
also trust that he comes in something OF a
professional sense as well. We say this
because it would be pleasing and appropri-
ate were he to do something while here
which would be lasting evidence OF the
genius which gave the first intimation OF
its existence at his Utah home.

Democrats are now able to count the
busting little city as theirs beyond dis
pute.
But what we want to call attention to in
tho above communication is the veriticatien
which it furnishes of the allegation that
the Liberal and Republican parties arc
practically identical Here we find active,
pronounced Liberals taking prominent
part in so-Called Republican meeting,
and apparently doing their utmost to
promote the Republican cause; while
it is known that the same Liberal
Republicans are laboring among the voters
of Tintic to prevent them from dividing on
national party iipes-in other words, to hold
them together as Liberals. If Republicans
sud Liberals were essentially different IN
sle matter OF principles and methods,
would these workers be eager for the Nephi
Liberals to be Republicans and the Tintic
Liberals to continue Liberals. If it is right
for Nephi Liberals to divide, it Is equally
right for those Of Tintic to do the same.
The Democrats of Tintic who have here
tofore trained with the Liberals should be
careful to avoid the trap which is set for
them. They should not permit themselves
to be used by the Republicans under the
guise of Liberals to advance the Republican
cause

and personal in their present efforts as to
kill the friendship which once existed be-
tween them. There is not an honest man
in this community who does not know and
will not say that the Peoples party is as
completely Q thing OF the past a. any po-
litical organization which has ever existed
and passed out of existence. Is there q
Democrat in the Liberal party who
viii confess that he entertains the slightest
apprehension that the Peoples party will
be- called together again and reahbilitated!
Is there Democrat who does not know
that there is no man in the Mormon church
and no combination of men who could re-
vive the Peoples party, if they wanted to
revive it.
The HERALD maintains that all for which
the Liberal party has clamored, all on the
surface for which it has striven has been
achieved or yielded, and no legitimate ex-
cuse for the further existence of the party
can be found. There is certainly no ex-
cuse which will justify honest Democrats.
Hence, we suggest to Democrats who are
lingering in the organization that they
come out and place themselves where they
belong. To-day is good time to declare
themselves, to say that they are Democrats
and to resume the work Of spreading Demo-
cratic principles.
The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1891-07-04
DECLARE YOURSELVES.

This is Independence Day, and it is a
good day for the few Democrats yet within
the ranks of the Liberal party to declare
their freedom and come oat manfully for the
support and advancement Of those political
principles in which they believe. Since the
inauguration of the movement for dropping
the old parties and dividing on the lines of
national politics Democrats have had plenty
of time, it seems to US, to carefully con-
slider the situation and wisely decide as to
the best course to pursue. II they have
taken advantage of the time and have given
the situation intelligent consideration, we
cannot understand how they can longer re-
frain from uniting with the party which
bears aloft the banner which they
claim to- respect If they have
looked at the facts as they are
presented they must see that there is no
shadow of legitimate excuse for the further
existence of the Liberal organization. That
party was formed for certain purpose
Its aims and ambitions were clearly stated,
and long and determined warfare it has
waged. 1t fought against certain institu-
lions and practices, and fought hard, Demo-
Gratis being among its leaders and most de-
termined soldiers. And now let Us ask any
intelligent, minded Democrat, if he can
see anything more for the Liberal party to
fight forf If he can find the suggestion of
an excuse for proceeding further along the
lines which have been followed with so
much esrnestness all these years! Is there
an honest Democrat anywhere in this big
territory who can say from his heart
that he thinks polygamous mar
iages are being solemnizedl Is there
Democrat who will say that
he does not believe that plural marriages
have been discontinued absolutelyl Is
there q Democrat who will say that he
thinks it probable, or even possible, that a
condition of things will ever again come in
Utah when polygamy can be practiced!
Every Democrat of intelligence knows, as
well as he knows anything, that polygamy
in this territory is thing of the past, that
it has been abandoned beyond the hope Of
recovery, and that there is no moro hkeli-
hood of its restitution than there is of the
people of Utah seeding from the republic
and setting up a monarchy here under the
shadow of the Wasatches.
Another thing which Democrats and
Republicans and Liberals complained about
was the influence of the Mormon church in
politics-iD the Affairs OF state. There
was q numerous political party made
nm almost exclusively Of Mormons
and embracing very nearly all Mormons.
That organization was power, and the
Liberals fought it quite as earnestly as
they opposed polygamy. But the Peoples
party mas gone to pieces, gone all to pieces,
not q vestige of it being left anywhere.
Not only has it been dissolved by it
officials, but by the rank and file them
selves. The members are to-day found OPP
posing each other in the matter Of political
principles, and doing 1t earnestly and intel
Heently. Sometimes we think they are
almost too earnest, when we see those who
ere formerly closely elIied SO yigerou
