introduced and enthusiastically passed
that votes should be given delegates

A second resolution introduced by g.

delegates to favor any action that might
come up in the State Convention rela-
tive to the nomination at State Con-
vention of u. s. Senatorial candidates.
Though the selection of these SEN
ators more directly by the people would
seem to be good thing ultimately, yet
its introduction at this juncture is re-
garded by many as questionable pro-
cedure and one not likely to be attempt
ed by the State Convention, mas much
as it would scarcely aid in obtaining a

Queer. The claim that tariff was paid by
the producer was abandoned in view of
ts.s fact that the consumer undou btedly
paid this sugar bounty. He then enumer
ated the bills to reduce the tariff passed
by the present house, all of viii were
shelved by the Republican senate. The
tariff needed careful revision; mate
rails should be admitted free and taxes
reduced to the minimum on necessaries.
"Force"' Bill and school Law.
The issue presented by the force bill was
one of supreme Importance. The Repub-

closed by eulogy of the Democratic party

Talking Of patent medicines
you know the old prejudice.
And the doctors some of
them are between you and us.
They would like you to think
that what's cured thousands
won't cure you. You'd be-
lieve in patent medicines #
they didn't profess to cu.-c
e0c1.ytAzug and SO, between
the experiments Of doctors,
and the experiments of patent
medicines that are sold only
because there's money in the
stuff, you lose faith in coc,.y-
thing.
And, you can't always tell
the prescription that cures by
what you read in the papers.
So. perhaps, there's no better
way to sell remedy, than to
tell the truth about it, and
take the risk Of its doing just
what it processes to do.
That's what the Worlds
Dispensary Medical Associa-
ton, Of Buffalo, N. Y, does
with
DR.. Pierce's
Golden Medical Discovery,
Favorite Prescription,
Pleasant Pellets, and
DR.. Sage's Catarrh Remedy.
If they don't do what their
makers say they'll do-you
get your money back.

Discovery of Tin Ore.

SALT LAKE, Utah, Aug 27.-An i'm
portant discovery of what purports to be
tin-bearing ore was made recently a
few miles north of North Ogden. The
lead is described as being thirty-five or
forty feet in width and of variable thick
ness. Samples of the ore have been
brought to this city by H. F. Huff, who
claims that assays have been made show
ing it to be exclusively tin ore and of sufti :
cient grade to make it very valuable.

Directions.

Directions
KANSAS CITY, Aug. 27.-At the meeting
of commercial telegraphers which is to be
held in Kansas City, Sept. q new pro-
tective association, to be known the
Commercial Photographers association of
the United States, will be organized. The
meeting will be held pursuant to call
issued by the committee which for some
time has been agitating the formation of
such an order. The association will be a
secret society, and two degrees will be con-
ferred. The first degree is to be called the
uniform rank, and will be conferred after
one years good standing. The second de-
gree will be conferred after ten years. good
standing, and will be called the mystic
degree.
The Last Probably Not Least.
There will be sick and death benefits,
and last mentioned though pr obably not
the least of the objects is that the associ a.
ton will seek to protect its members
against any sweeping reductions in wages
by telegraph corporations. The organ
zers of the movement have been active,
and correspondence has been going on for
some months past. Local unions have
been forming in all the large cities, and
here from Philadelphia, New York, Bos-
ton. Jersey City, Richmond, Nashville,
New Orleans, Cincinnati, st. Louis, Balti-
more, Pittsburg, and Chicago. The con-
vention will commission six organizers
who will give their entire time to the in
terests of the new order.

NEWSPAPERS AND COURTS.

just how far a newspaper should 60
in discussing a jury's verdict in a
murder case is q delicate matter to de-
termine. Judges and jurymen are
human and should have an intelligent
respect for public opinion as expressed
in newspapers. But it seems to us that
a New York contemporary oversteps the
line in calling for a popular vote OF the
conviction of young Harris. He was
tried for the murder Of his wife, CON
victed by a jury and sentenced to death.
It does not matter how the jury reached
its verdict, SO long as dishonest means
were not used. The law takes no notice
of one change or twenty changes in a
juryman's vote while that body is dis.
cussing the case. It is entirely proper
for newspapers to discuss the merits Of
the jury system, but it is not right to
discuss certain features bearing upon a
certain case unless corruption appears.
But this contemporary prints blank bal
lots which are filed in and voted and the
vote announced from day to day. 1t is
OF course natural lnab tne friends OF
Harris in their efforts to secure acquittal
after he has been convicted should use
every means. One method would be
the purchase Of a great number of these
papers every day, thu hiring of a corps
Of clerks and the return to the news
paper office of as many ballots in favor
of Harris as they can afford to buy. 1t
is an easy way Of securing an apparent
revulsion of popular opinion against a
verdict which may be entirely justifiable.
If this can be done in one case it can be
done in another, and il carried to an OK
treme it would prove most dangerous
weapon against II system Of courts and
IurieS.

ADVICE FROM CARTER.

perhaps Commissioner Carter's opin-
s,on of the Blaine letter would be- OF
to our republican contemporaries
who are SO reluctant in giving up tho
premier. Mr.. Carter, who has earned
the reputation Of being the shrswdAst
republican politician in the northwest
and one of the shrewdest in the coun-
try, recently said in the Washington
Star: "rhe letter of Mr.. Blaine is a
timely and candid notice to his admir-
ing friends admonishing them to avoid
useless waste OF. energy. All republic
who have been in good faith urging
the nomination Of Mr.. Blaine will un-
douhtedly ascrihe to him the utmost
sincerity. In tho success of the great
measures being advocated by the admin
%istration, MI. Blaine unquestionably
'foresees for himself enduring fame"
The last sentence in Mr.. Carter's in
terview is particularly refreshing. He
means that providing Harrison is sue
uessful in carrying out certain measures,
whatever these may be, Mr.. Blaine will
drop in as an adjunct and pick up what
fame is left over. But if this proves
enduring what duration OF fame may
may We expect for Harrison? The
commissioner, though, is quito right,
from q political view, IN throwing out
notice to his Montana lie%utenants to
stop yelling for Blaine. Perhaps he
foresees the possibility of such a war
whoop for the premier at Minneapolis
as will prevent his declination. All
things considered, like other Harrison
leaders, he thinks it safer to send a
thoroughly Harrison delegation. We
think, like Mr.. Carter, that Mr.. Blaine
was honest and sincere in declining the
nomination; but under all circum-
atances political prophecies are uncer-
tain. IT is by no means assured that the
Minneapolis convention will be in The
nature Of a ratification meeting as Mr..
Carter suggests; there is still time to
form combinations and tear down po-
litical fences.

Sir Morell Mackenzie was we'll known in

tending musical schools in this country she
found her way clear to Il course under some
OF the leading instructors of the old world.
After finishing her studies she appeared in
grand opera in the musical centers of En-
rope, scoring a number of very creditable
successes. While in school abroad sbs
wrote many letters for leading American
papers and won praise as n graphic md in
teresting writer. The study of music prob.
ably gave her literary Efforts the direction
of verse.
She made the tour of Italy singing Linda.
