"Tbere is one thing that ought to be widely
published" said Mr.. w. A. Croffnt. of the
United States Geological Survey, recently re-
turned from Chicago land that is that Chicago
is not particularly engaged in fleeing the
stranger. Prices of all sorts seem reasonable
We took room in pretty and com Portable
cottage just outside the Exposition grounds
and within FIVE blocks of the principal gate
and we paid 81 each per day for the ROOM
Our meals were obtained at good restaurants
within one block at prices just about the same
as those of Washington. The visitor at Chi
cago can live well on s. day, including room
and at $40 for the round trip. if he will abstain
from the sleeper. he can go to the Columbian
Exposition and stay fortnight for $50. In
deed, it can be done considerably cheaper than
this if the visitor puts up with inferior ac-
commodations. 1t goes without saying that
he can spend $40 OF $40 day if he wants lug
uries and has the money to pay for them but
il is the greatest fair that the world has ever
seen, and every American who eau raise $50
and who can get a rOund-frip ticket for $40 or
less ought not TO fail to visit it,"

1.-THE conditions in Utah now are vastly DIFF
ferent from what they were when i frst
assumed the Governorship of the Territory, y
said Hon. Caleb West to a reporter. After a
hiatus of four years and better Mr.. West is
again in the gnberHatorial chair, and he has
arrived from Salt Lake City. He is one of the
few exceptions to the ex-rule laid down when
the new regime came in. "Since first went
there" he continued. "the Mormons have ut
terly discarded poygamy. and it is as much a
defunct institution now as slavery. The rules
Of the Mormon Church prohibit plural mar
riage absolutely. There is now no difference
in Utah and any other State or Territory. The
people have likewise abandoned the old politi-
cal organizations and Joined one or other of the
great National parties. Nothing is wanted to
increase our prosperity and hasten the develop
ment Of our resources but Statehood. The
people are almost a unit in their desire 10
throw off the Territorial dress which we have
good while since outgrown. Ny belief is that
Congress will realize our true status and grant
us the privilege Of Statehood at an early day. 1"

The Secretary of the Interior, Hoke Smith
shares the opinion of his predecessor. Secre-
tary Noble, that the Indian education business
is good deal overdone. The Indian Depart
ment believes in the elementary schools which
are maintained on the reservations but is not
so friendly to the higher schools elsewhere
The Government pays about 81 100000 year
for this purpose, and many of the schools re-
ceive as high as 5000 per annum for each
pupil. Most of this goes to the churches which
maintain these schools. There is a real estate
feature in the business too, as many ambi-
tions towns or sites that want to be towns in
the West arc anxious to get the $4,000 build
ings put up for the Indian schools to help
boom the place. Many ambitious schoolhouses
are said to be absolutely without pupils

THE DEMOCRATIC SURRENDER


The votes in the house on the silver
question developed the fact that Grover
Cleveland is he absolute boss OF his
party and that the Democratic party is
the most subservient political organiza.
ton this country has ever known.
In 1890 test vote was taken in the
house on the question OF free coinage OF
silver and Ill Democrats voted in favor
OF it and only % against it. Now ma
jority Of the Democrats voted against
every proposition for free coinage and
ended by voting for the unconditional
repeal OF the Sherman law, which, if
the senate Concurs, will stop all silver
purchase, silver coinage being already
stopped.
Why this change?
Did the Democratic party demand it ?
On the contrary, the latest utterance
Of the Democratic party is in favor of
bi.metalism.
The change is made because Grover
Cleveland demanded it and refused to
dish out the public pap until the Dem
ocratic congressman complied. There
has been no change of public sentiment
in the direction OF mono. metalism since
1890. In the west and south the senti-
ment in favor of bi.metalism is even
stronger than it was three years ago.

THE ARIZONA REPUBLICAN: SATURDAY MORNING.

"bi-metalism will come later. The first
duty was to get rid OF the Sherman
law"
This is all subterfuge. 1t was pro-
posed to substitute for the Sherman
law the free coinage of silver at various
ratios, and finally it was proposed to
substitute the old law of 1878. All
these propositions were rejected and by
substantially the same vote.
Had there been any disposition on
the part OF the administration to accept
any compromise with silver, surely one
might have been found in the six diff
ferent amendments to the Wilson bill
which were proposed.
There is no such disposition. Mr..
Cleveland demanded unconditional re-
peal OF the Shermsn law, which meant
unconditional surrender OF the Demo-
cratic party and the party ran up the
white flag,
