EDITORIALS.
A DESPICABLE AFFAIR.

Whoever the author may be of the
barefaced lie published in the Enquirer
| OF last NIGHT, and as exposed in this
mornings DISPATCH, we know not, but
one thing we do know, and that is, the
writer is one of that class of political
scoundrels who are a curse to any par
ty, and blot on society. The object
in concocting the communication was
undoubtedly a trick to divide if posi-
BILE the Democratic element i'll the
south end OF the county, in favor of the
Republican ticket, but the scheme was
not we'll engineered, and the Enquirer
might have known that it would not
work
Such base villainy as Is instanced in
this case should, as it always does, turn
the sympathies of the community in a
directly opposite channel to that in
! tended by such schemerS.
| So far as THE DISPATCH is con-
cerned, such instances of political trick
cry and deception as the one under
consideration. cannot occur too often,
because in the exposing of them the
people are enabled to see just what
base means are being used to win their
sympathies and support
We think, in the interests of fair
play, that it would be nothing but
right for the Enquirer to "chOke off,
on such tactics as this, and if anything
is to be published at all, that it be the
facts, and nothing else.

800 MEN TO DO IT.
Broad Guagin9 the R. G.. w. From
Thistle to Salina.
The Work Train Goes Through Provo
Loaded With Section Hen From
all Along the Line.

\ large number of men and several
ear loads OF tools together with the Of
tic.als OF the r. G. W, passed through
Provo yesterday on their way to
Thistle, where they will start work
to-day widening the guage of the r. G..
w. between Thistle and Salina.
This morning superintendent Welby,
and the officials viii leave Thistle
and start over the road. while the
workmen will be scattered along the
route. When the officials car, which
Will be the last narrow guage train to
90 over the road, will have reached Sa-
lima, the word Will be telegraphed to
each gang OF men to start to work, and
in just i've hours after the given signal
the entire line of eighty miles will be
changed to standard guage.
THIS is nineteenth century pre-
gress with vengeance, to think That
eighty miles OF track can be changed,
and that uniformly, in five hours.
To-day then sees the close of the
narrow guage track for the R. q. w.
No tickets viii be sold to passengers,
nor viii fast freight be received to-day
for points between Thistle and Salina.
Preparations for this great event have
been going on for some time. and now
everything is ready, and here goes for

pages of r. G. Westean history.

BILLY MCKINLEY, JR.

MCKINLEY has a brother residing in
San Francisco at present, although he
has an appointment as consul to some
of the islands of the Pacific. Presuma-
bly, he can attend to the duties as we'll
in San Francisco, and he is nearer
home and can draw his salary much
easier than if at his post of duty But
it is not of this, but OF his statement in
the San Francisco Examiner, published
over his own signature, concerning his
brother WILLIAM, and how he became
tariff champion. Consul MCKINLEY
says:
LAS for his acquisition of his tariff
views, | do not know that l can offer
any better explanation than that of in
heritance. An old friend of our youth,
whom l met in Honolulu, asked me
how | accounted for BILLY's tariff ideas.
l answered him thus: When my
brother was born my father was
selling pig-iron for $l2 a ton that
cost him 81 to manufacture, and BILLY
MCKINLEY, jr., was about as skinny,
puny and unprOmlslng baby physi-
cally as one would care to see. A doz-
en- years after his birth we had a good
protection and pig-iron went up $50
a ton without any increase in the cost
of production. Billy MCKINLEY, jr.,
commenced to grow fat and he swelled
up correspOndingly to the increase in
the price of United States pig-iro
His tariff propensities are certainly
inherited"
The above explains it, in very few
words, and coming from one of the
family must be accepted as gospel BY
the generous tariff MCKINLEY, ST.,
was enabled to advance prices on his
pig-iron, and make profit of over 50
per cent. OF course he did not divide
this profit with his employees by an in
crease of wages, for Consul MCKIN-
LEY says the cost of production was
not increased. If he had, BILLY, jr.,
would probably not have "swelled"
to his present immense proportions.

SOME STUBBORN FACTS.

! Republicans have stated that Demo
Gratis are deceitful and cowardly; and
have pointed to the treatment of the
Mormon people in Wyoming as evidence
of their fair treatment. This falsehood
has had the effect of causing the Logan
Journal to allude to the fact that when
the EDMUNDs-TUCKER law was UP befo =
Congress there were forty-two Demo-
Gratis who stood up against the senti-
ment of a part of the country, and in
behalf of guaranteed rights, voted
against that bill. But one Republican
voted with them-a negro. T. B. REED,
afterwards speaker of the House, rose
in his seat and Tapping his arms like
the wings of crane, cried out in his
nasal tones: Get up; it's the Mawmon
bill;' and the obedient serfs rose as
though tied to his finger ends and voted
as they were ordered to, one Republi-
can as before stated, voting with the
heroic band of Democrats-a negro.
Wyoming is pointed to by Republi-
cans as evidence of their fair treatment
OF MOrmons, and Idaho rs the evidence
of what Democrats will do against
Mormons. One would imagine that
the Republicans had fought like dem
ons for the rights of MormOns in Idaho,
instead of being the head and front of
all the opposition that has came to the
people there. F. DUBOIS has been
warm and consistent friend (?) of the
Mormons. Why will those who favor
Republicanism bring up so painful a
subject and one which must result so
disastrously to them as the condition
OF Idaho? 1t is subject fraught with
too grave results to be lightly dis
cussed, and Republicans should be the
last to advance, in support of their |
party, any reference to Idaho. With /
Wyoming it is different. The Republi- /
cans have treated Murmons we'll; but /
have Democrats driven them out, or
striyen to place them in bondage? Ger
tainly not. Then what advantage have |
Republicans over Democrats?
Why do not the Republicans cite Ari-
IONA? Because Arizona would be vast !
ly more disastrous to them. In Arizona
it was Democratic Governor and Leg
islature that removed all the disabilities /
placed upon the Mormon people by Re-
publicans, and the Republicans are
again striving to enact laws inimlcal to |
the Mormon people there. With Idaho |
and Arizona and the legislation of
Republican Congress staring them in
the face, the Republicans of this valley
are not wanting in the bravery of mad
men to introduce such topics.

to meet the east-bound train, No. II
as there were fifteen tramps on board
who had forcibly taken charge
of the train. Accordingly, Silas
Alfred telephoned to the Cos
mopolltan hotel to Night Clerk
Van Wickle to notify Sheriff Fowler
to have as many. officers as possible
down at the depot at 2:15 O'Clock.
Sheriff Fowler, Officers White, Night
watchmen Hatten and Elliot. ID. l..
Van Wickle and DISPATCH reporter
started for the depot, arriving there
just in time to meet the train A rush
was made for the cabOose, where it
was supposed the men were, but find
ing it closed, u search was
made along the train until
"a car was reached where
man was discovered in the act of
jumping from the door A command
to stay there from Sheriff Fowler
caused the fellow to consider what he
was doing, and on second thought he
concluded to stay. He was ordered to
dismount, when the train, which had
been backing up, came to standstill &,
and Sheriff Fowler, jumping up into
tie car, followed by brakey with a
lantern, persuaded the balance to
come out. In the meantime the other
officers had been busy, and had sue
ceeded in getting TWO others, making
seven all told. There had been others
m hnnr6 bIIf fharr hoI Al
darkness, and could not be found. They
were marched up town, and arriving at
the Sheriff's office were searched and
then placed in jail.
The conductor OF the freight
told the officers that the men
had boarded the train at Bingham
Junction stating that they
were going to Provo The constable
ordered them off, when one of them
pulled gun and told him to git, -
which the conductor did. after being
convinced that i'll health would be sure
to follow if he didn't.
On the arrival of the train at Lahi,
he teltgraphed to Provo for officers
with the result above stated. The
trainmen stated that several of the
"hoboes" had jumped off at Battle
Greek, intending to walk into Provo.
The officers will be on the lookout for
these fellows.
The car in which the men were,
was loaded with wool, and
between the bales a shotgun was
found, but none OF the "bums'' would
lay claim to it. These fellows evidently
intended to reap rich harvest, while
the circus was absorbing the attention
of the people.
A special Tolice force will be on to-
day and no doubt any breaks made by
tramps will be readily detected.
