IN of affairs here.

THE SUBDIVISIONS of the Woman S
congress at the Worlds fair yesterday
bristled with the stirring points of our
self-speaking, salf-reliant representative
American women. Christian associa-
tions had their champions, the order of
the Eastern Starr put forth its most
worthy grand matrons and the report
congress was read to by distinguished
ladies from Canada, England, Switzer-
land, Iceland. etc. But the most i'm
portant, evidently, was the department
congress of the national council OF women
of the United States" wherein LUCY
STONE, MARY WRIGHT SEwALL, ANNIE
JENNEss MILLER, OcTAvIA w. BATES,
JULIA WARD HOWE, SUSAN B, ANTHONY,
J. ELLEN FOSTER and other distinguished
doves took part. Dress reform came in
for large share of discussion, and the
bifurcated system, as opposed to the
styles of 1880, was, no doubt, warmly adj
vocated. Talk coming from Chicago is
all right, but we are thinking that for
some time yet the fashions will continue
to come from Paris.

In a Bad Fix.

1t is repeatedly asserted by Republican
papers that 1.-THE Republican party still
lives" This seems to have been prompted
| by the meeting of the National Republi-
can League at Louisville, and to be set
forth as a sort of diversion from the evil
dent failure of the convention to do any
thing of a practical character. The Trib-
ulle of this city, an alleged Republican
paper, alludes in this unkind way to the
assembly: ssThe league of alleged Re.
publican clubs that recently closed a
toadying convention" That is not a
very good sign of extraordinary lie in
the party or the meeting.
But why this anxiety to assure the
world that the G. o. p. ''still lives'' if
there were not some signs of impending
decay? The disaster of last fall was Sc
rious, there can be no doubt, but it is a
poor party that cannot overcome the effect
of one defeat. 1t is undeniable that the
Louisville gathering did not pan out as
richly as anticipated and that what en-
thusiasm there was did not amount to
anything more than an efferyescence of
sentiment.
The apology is made by one Republican
organ that, sit is OF course impossible
that their deliberations should be fruitful
OF practical issues at this time, when
practical issues wait upon record that is
not yet made" This is explained by
stating that the Democratic party has not
yet furnished any flaws for the Repub-
lican davis to peck at.
This is q very humiliating confession.
1t amounts to an acknowledgment that
the Republican party has no definite prin-
ciples on which to formulate a platform,
no live issues of its own to present to the
public, but that it is waiting for the Dem
ocratic party to make bIunder, or do
something that can be distorted into the
appearance of bluRder, on which an is
sue can be raised.
Why should the deliberations OF such
body, gathered from all parts of the un-
ion, not be 'sfruitful of practical issues'
if the party is so very much alive? 1t is
evident that the convention was prema-
ture and that it was fat failure. And a
party that is entirely dependent upon the
anticipated mistakes OF its ever living OPP
ponent for practical issues to present to
the country, is very apt to be disap-
pointed in its hopes and to linger long in
sad despair The G. o. p. is in bad
tway.

Silver Educational Work

The Denver papers are agitating the
policy of sending good speakers to the
east and south in the interests of an edu-
cational campaign on the silver question.
Each is claiming to have suggested to the
others the idea of thus circulating infor-
nation in favor of the white metal.
1t does not matter about precedence in
starting the movement, THE HERALD
some time ago was ridiculed by the al
legged special champion of silver in this
region for urging such a campaign of ed
ucation. There is nothing wonderful in
the idea, and there is no use in claiming
originality for it. The right thing to do
is to take practical steps towards its con-
summation.
It is claimed by some of the sanguine
men of both parties who are in favor of
free coinage, that ninety per cent. of the
people in the country are supporters of
bimetallism. They viii find themselves
very much mistaken. That may be the
percentage-it is no higher, in the west.
But east of the Missouri river the senti-
ment is largely and strongly the other
way. In the south silver is popular.
and there will be little difficulty in
arousing enthusiasm for free coinage
there. The eastern states are hotbeds for
the gold fever.
We endorse the idea that public senti-
ment ought to be SO aroused on this ques-
ton that an effect shall be produced which
Will neutralize the influence of Wall street
over the minds of public men. Also that
the people should have the truth, unadul-
terated by the false ideas that have ema-
mated from the minds of the gold specu-
lators. Tell the silver truth, by all means.
There is another thing to be considered
also. If the people need the truth I'M
mixed with the errors of monometallism
they need it unclothed with the fanciful
trappings which have been thrown
around it by the silver fanatics. Give it
to them straight and nude.
Many a good cause is damaged by the
extravaganza and absurdities of its own
advocates. zealots are necessary in every
movement. Without some extremists no
innovation would be pushed to success.
But there are people posted on every point
of the financial question in the east who
are ready to puncture the bags OF wind
which some men mistake for argument,
and who will take advantage Of wild
statements and whimsical theories in
which some ardent siIverites in
dulge, and SO injure the work Of

A General Mistake.

Is it not about time that our contem-
poraries in the country districts OF Utah
and those in surrounding states and
territories, became acquainted with the
fact that they have been misIed as to the
cause of Delegate Rawlins' tender of his
resignation? They will seem to take for
granted that the first story told about it
was true, that is, that: sit was the re-
suit of a disagreement between himself
and the President as to who should be
appointed secretary of state for Utah !;
that he was angry at the appointment
made and SO in fury resigned his Office. -
| 1t matters not, apparently, that this
has been denied in the most positive
terms. The fact that there is nothing of
personal nature or otherwise that an
tagonizes the Delegate and the Secretary,
and that there has been no dispute be-
tween them but that on the contrary Mr..
Rawlins was among the first to congratu-
late Mr.. Richards on his appointment,
seems to count for nothing. When a
falsehood once gets started it is the most
difficult thing to catch up with it and
truth often gets out OF breath before it
can overlap it.
1t is further repeated, until the printed
sentence has become an eyesore, that
"The result was quite Serious breach
between the Delegate aud the President. -
The ssserious breach'' was a fiction de-
signed to make press sensation, and if
seems to suit the purpose of some papers
TO make believe that it was solemn fact,
notwithstanding the denials that have
come over the wires from undoubtedly
authentic sources, and the positive state
ments of the Delegate himself
Some of those papers at least that have
aided in disseminating the errors concern
| ing the feelings existing between the
gentlemen involved in these discussions.
ought to take as much pains to correct
the mistake as they have taken to repeat
the incorrect rumors.
No person or paper is infall1ble, and it
is no mark of weakness to acknowledge
an error, but on the contrary is evidence
of strength. There has been no quarrel
with the President on the part of Mr..
RAwLINs, and the appointment of the
gentleman who was selected for Secretary
of Utah was not in any way the reason
that prompted what was done in reference
to the resignation.
The mistake is equally as great that
Utah is without delegate. THE HERALD
has stated the facts in the case all along
The resignation was made out to be sent
to the governor. 1t has not reached him
A notice that such letter had been sen
to him was served on the clerk OF the
house. Before the resignation could be
received request was served on the
governor TO return the letter, which be
would have done if it had been received.
1t will be returned unopened ii it comes
to hand. What follows? Why at pre-
sent the delegate remains in office. 1t is
of no use to spend columns IN arguing a
case from false premises nor to Jump at

THERE rs movement in several eastern
cities for the abatement of the ever pres
ent smoke nuisance. In St. Louis MEM
bership OF 1900 has been secured in an
association to solicit professional and bus
mess interests to promote its objects. So
far, great number of owners of furnaces
have agreed to put in appliances to abate
this nuisance, which effect substantial
saving in fuel bills by consuming or pre-
venting the emission of smoke, and good
lawyers say they can be enforced. st.
Louis has been divided into thirty two
districts with officers assigned to them to
see that the laws are carried out. These
ordinances make it an offense punishable
with cumulative fines to emit dense black
or thick gray smoke after August 18th OF
this year. 1t might be good plan for
some of our Salt Lake aldermen to put
themselves in communication with the
st. Louis authorities, with view of ap-
plying similar remedial measures to the
condition of affairs here.

enlightenment on the main question.
Therefore, in trying to convince and
convert the east to free silver, send sensi-
bic men who viii present facts and
figures and arguments in rational way,
and not the fanatics who indulge in
flights of fancy which school boys will
smile at. Also scatter abroad such liter
aturs as can be supported by personal
reasoning and will bear the test of fair
criticism. And do not set every man
down as dishonest and gold Spectator
and heartless SHYIocK, who believes that
gold is the only secure basis for the
finances of the world. Tolerance,
patience and determination Will win in
the end, and a silver educational cam
paign can be fought out On those lines
successfully.
