UTAH DEMOCRACY.
A Jubilee BANQUET in Honor of Andre
W. ------- .Iaclxann.

A Jubilee Banquet in Honor of Andrew
Jackson.
SALT LAKE, Jan. S.-The liberal Dem
ocrats OF this city held jubilee and
banquet tonight. Col. w. N. Ferry,
member OF the national committee, was
the guest of the evening. During the
course of the evening, an address to the
Democrats of the country was adopted.
The address states that while in ma
tional politics the subscribers are Dem
ocrats, they value the purity of the
country's institutions above any party
duty, and the first question should be
in Utah: ''Is a man in the highest
and holiest sense an American citizen ?"
Therefore, the party in Utah will con-
tnue to act with the members of other
parties for the maintenance of the law
and the suppression of Mormonism and
polvgamy. The demand is made that
Democrats abroad who do not under
stand the situation in Utah, shall per-
NIT the Democrats in Utah to adhere to
the ancient Democratic doctrine of home
rule and keep their influence where it
will do no harm. Notice is served that
they do not propose to be let out of the
national Democratic party because they
do not feel the time has come to place
the power of the territory within the
reach of the church, but "request the
Democracy Of the nation to keep its
hands off and let US fight out our own
salvation"

officers of the Baltimore that John III.
Davidson was tried by criminal court
at Valparaiso on a charge even yet un-
known, convicted and sentenced to five
years imprisonment without either him
self or Captain Schley being informed
that he was under trial. and in the face
of written statement to Schley by the
Valparaiso authorities that no charges
were pending against any of the Balti-
more's crew.
The repairs on the Baltimore will be
very slight. 1t is said an examination
of her hull showed she was not so badly
fouled as was expected. Up to the pres
ent time only her officers have been per-
mitted to land, but on Saturday Captain
Schley will begin to give some of his
men little liberty. The Baltimore will
probably return to San Francisco next
week to await orders from Washington.

OF the ward in which it occurred being

by all the witnesses except two Ameri-
