The Reason Why.

The Republican papers have been prog
nosticating all kinds of disasters which
are to come upon the country in conse-
quence of the adoption of those 'ifree
trade' measures which they insist are to
be inaugufated Immediately. At the
same time they are taunting the party
which is to invite these troubles with the
intention not to make any radical
changes, and thus with being false to
their party pledges.
According to those papers, the country
is to be ruined by free trade and the
Democratic party is to refuse to estab-
lish it. There is to be at once
a tariff revolution bringing financial
bankruptcy, destruction of manufactures,
the lowering OF wages and the prevalence
of poverty, and the continuance OF pres
ent conditions, with few If any changes
in the tariff, because the Democracy do
not mean to do what they promised.
Fault is to be found if reforms are iusti-
tuted, and Just as much if the tariff is not
radically altered. The motives of the
party coming into power are already
grossly misconstrued and its acts dis
torted, and therefore we are warranted in
expecting continuance OF that kind of
tactics.
One of the papers to which we have re-
ferred says now: ''The Democracy ex-
hausted itself during the last cam
paign taking their cue from their plat
form that the tariff is robbery. -
That is a sample of Republican misrepre-
sentation." Neither the platform nor it's
advocates ever told the public that ssthe
tariff is robbery On the contrary.
they contended for tariff provided it
should be the kind of tariff contemplated
in the constitution. That is, tariff for
public and not for private purposes. A
tariff to provide public revenue instead of
one to foster and favor particular class
of citizens.
Such assertions as that avowing that the
Democratic party is opposed to TARIFF

OUR ESTEEMED morning contemporary,
squirting favorably towards Senator
STEWARDS crazy notion of joining
Nevada and Utah in one state, says: cit
would at once do away with the objection
that the people of the east have to the
creation of any more United States
Senators in the west.'' Well. that aoould
be fine, large reason, for western peo-
pie to want to restrict western Senatorial
representation. For western people to
advocate measures, at this juncture in
history, whereby they may be outvoted
on vital questions, would be nothing else
than suicidal.

An Important "Side Issue. p

In commenting upon the signing OF the
bill by the Governor of Idaho which takes
away the disabilities of large number of
citizens OF the State. Boise paper makes
some unjust remarks in reference to the
action of the Democrats in the legislature
relative to this measure. These ref1ec-
tons are copied by Salt Lake paper and
therefore require little explanation. 1t
is stated that: "There are no side issues
tied on the act, as the Democrats and
Populists OF the legislature first insisted
there should be, but it merely removes
the political disabilities of the Mormons,
and they will be permitted to march I'M
molested to the polls in the future and de-
post their ballots.
The facts in the case are these. An cleo
ton bill which was substitute for the
STORY bill had passed the House, was
sent to the Senate, where an amendment
was made to it providing that the
people in the new counties that had been

AT LAST the truth about American tin
is out. Special Agent AVER, Of the
Treasury department, refers in al official
document to the closing out of the Cali
fornia and South Dakota mines, and sug-
gests that SO much of the tariff of 1890 as
imposes duty of cents pound on pig
tin, after the 1st OF July next, be re-
pealed. A bill is already before the House
for that purpose. The probability is that
there couldn't be produced 1000 pounds
of pig tin year in the whole United
States.

formed, and in which there are a number
of citizens to whom this bill will restore
the elective franchise, should have the
same right as other people in the state to
select their county officers. When the
amended bill went back to the House,
in which the majority are Republicans.
the Democrats and Populists tried to have
it considered at once in committee OF the
whole. This was opposed by the Repub-
licans and the bill was re-committed.
This was considered tantamount to
the loss of the measure and a great
protest was made, the Republicans being
charged with wilfully breaking their
pledges ON this question. They were
under obligations to repeal the obnoxious
features of the test oath, equally with the
Democrats. The upshot of it all was that
new bill was prepared and passed in the
House, which was accepted by the Senate
under certain considerations that we will
explain, and as this measure amended
election law, so as to eliminate the retro
active features and place all citizens OF
voting age on proper level, it was en-
acted and is now law.
The only s'side issue" in the bill which
the Democrats favored and which the Re-
publicans opposed was that we have
named. Why should not the people of
the newly organized counties have the
right to choose their own county Off
GERS? Because the Republican governor
wanted to appoint them until the next
general election. Was there any special
reason for that? 1t is whispered so loudly
that the whole state may hear it, that
Governor MCCONNELL is anxious to be
elected United States Senator and is laying
the pipes for it, and that he and his party
desire to surround them with Republican
material. The e-enfranchised people and
others might not select the right kind of
officers for his purpose, so it would never
do to have the provision named attached
to the election bill.
But there is tail even to that trans
action. The new bill which passed was
sent to the Senate by the Republicans
supposing that the Democratic Senators
would insist upon the addition of the pro-
vision for the election of officers
~ +ba now oo,o+iae opJ that
this would SO obstruct the measure that
it would not pass, and thus the response
bility for its defeat could be thrown upon
the Democratic party. But when amend
ments were offered in the Senate they
were promptly voted down, and after the
bill passed there was no alternative left
to the governor but to sign it or bear the
blame for himself and his party of its
failure.
The people who are benefited by this
tardy act of justice will have sense enough
to see through all the tricks and subter
fuges which have hindered them from ex-
ercising their rights and which now pre-
vent many of them from choosing their
local officers until the next election. And
we would remind them that the question
Of party is one of principle and does not
depend upon the action taken on one
measure, however important it may be to
them. Those who are Democrats from
principle will remain so and support their
party Independent Of the fact that in this
instance the Democrats have been their
true friends and defenders.

he HELD THE FORT,
Death OF the Man to Whom sherman
signaied His Famous Message.

The recent death of General John
Murray Corse recalls the incident
which gave him national reputation
and won for him the breyet of Major
General. In Sherman's march to the
sea he commanded a division of the
Fifteenth Corps. After the evacuation
OF Atlanta the Confederates crossed the
Chattahoochee and destroyed the rail-
road, and Corse was ordered from
Rome to the relief of Altoona, where
large commissary supplies, guarded
by 800 men under Colonel j. Z. Tour
tellotte were, threatened by an in
fantry division of the enemy. Corse's
arrival increased the garrison to near
ly 1000 before General French ar
rived with his superior force of 5000
Confederates.
To his summons to surrender and
avoid needless eifusion of blood Corse
returned defiant answer, which was
followed by furious attack upon the
Notifications and desperate defense.
In this all the commanding officers OF
the garrison were wounded. Although
suffering from bullet wound which
carried away his ear and cheek bone,
Corse continued TO direct the defense.
Sherman, from the crest Of Kenesaw,
eighteen miles, signaled to the COM
mander, Hold the fort, am coming"
to which he received the profane but
reassuring reply, 81 am short cheek
bone and one ear, but am able to whip
all hell yet" On learning who was in
command Sherman remarked: Ale
will hold out; | know the man. The
event justified his confidence. for be-
fore the relieving force had reached
striking distance the sun-telegraph
signaled the news that the attack had
failed and the Confederates were re-
treating. The engagement was one
OF the hottest of the war and the sig
nails have gone into history.

CATTLE STAMPEDES.
Slight Causes May Set the Herd Frantic
and then Cowboys Must Ride Hard.

Speaking of stampede among cat
tle,n said a man from the foothills of
the Sierra Nevada, at is surprising
what triflng thing will start one
that may cost the lives of one or more
cowboys and the loss of perhaps hun
dreds of cattle before it can be con-
trolled. One of the most serious
stampedes | ever heard of was the one
Bronco John Sullivan. the Texas cow
boy, tells about. He was coming up
the Texas trail one spring in company
with other cowboys, having in charge
bunch of 1000 cattle. One of the
BOYS opened his tobacco pouch to get
IA chew. The wind blew shred or
two of the finecut out of his fingers.
The fugitive tobacco foated away and
lodged in a steers eve. In moment
the eve began to smart, and the steer
got wild. Its antics started others in
the herd, and in ten seconds the big
bunch was surging and dashing about,
out of all control. 1t was two days
before they got the herd working
quickly again. Two of the best cow
boys were trampled to death, and 400
head of cattle were lost.
Hail storms are greatly dreaded by
cowboys on the trail, especially if they
come at night, when the cattle are
sleeping. II hailstone happens to
strike steer in the eye, stampede is
pretty sure to follow. He springs to
his feet, and in thrashing around steps
on the tails of others. They jump up
in pain. The herd is alarmed, and be-
fore anything can be successfully done
to stay them the whole herd are off
like flash. The bark of coyote
when everything is still at night has
stampeded many bunch of cattle dis
astrously. A blade of grass, carried
along by the wind, sometimes strikes
a steer In the eye. The pain that fol-
lows will set him wild, and he can
soon have the herd on the run across
country at NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. gait.
at is during a stampede that the
cowboy has work to do. His one great
object is to keep the flying herd to-
gether. He urges his mustang dead
against the advancing column of fran
tic cattle at the constant risk OF his
life, and works them gradually in a
circle. The cowboys all ride to the
right around stampeding herd. If
they can get the cattle running in a
circle the first important step in re-
gaining control of them is made.
know of stampede when the wboys
were obliged to ride around herd for
a distance of over 200 miles before
they got it under control, and then it
was only twenty-five miles from where
the stampede started. In all that time
not one of the cowboys took a mo-
ment's rest or bite to eat. Such
things can't be thought of during a
stampede"
