A NEW STATE.

Not the least important of the
elections was that in Utah. The
point of interest was the selection
of delegates 10 the Constitutional
convention which is to frame the
organic law of the coming state.
Party lines had been drawn in most
of the districts, but it was generally
conceded in advance that the NOR
mon vote would control the selection
of the majority of delegates.
Returns are not yet at hand to
definitely determine the results Of
the election. There can be little
doubt, however, that the mormons
will control the Constitutional con-
vention. The strength of the gen
tiles in Salt Lake City and populous
centers of the territory has never
been enough to permanently control
them, and in a vote embracing the
entire electorate of the territory the
gentiles could not hope to win.
They have wisely avoided any issue
of strength with the mormons on
that, and it is one of the gratifying
indications Of the assured prosperity
and advancement Of the new state
that no religious line has been
drawn in the selection of the men
who are to make the constitution,
of the state of Utah. The fact is
significant Of progress and develop
ment.
There is no danger of resurrec-
ton Of polygamy under constitu-
ton made by mormons. There is
every indication that the mormons
have abandoned polygamy as a
necessary part of church practice,
even if they have not abandoned
the doctrine as a necessary part of
church faith. Were it otherwise,
the Utah constitution must, under
the enabling act, contain an inhibi-
ton of plural marriage, and congress
would not accept an instrument
which omits that Inhibition.

4 REPUBLICAN, LANDSLIDE.

The voice of the people has been
heard and democracy no longer con-
trolls all branches of national gov
eminent. The returns indicate that
the house of representatives will be
republican by majority of forty
FIVE and the senate, if not republi-
can, very nearly SO. Estimates now
claim the republicans will lack one
of having majority that will give
the populists the balance of power.
While the result is surprise to all,
yet the explanation is not SO diff
cult. During the entire democratic
administration the country has been
laboring under period of depres-
sion. The panic had begun during
Harrison's administration, but the
people did not charge them with the
blame. Everything has been charg-
ed and blamed to democracy. An
other very important reason is dem
ocratic utilization with populisms.
The old time democrats would not
fuse, and to show their detestation
of the latter party they voted large
ly the republican ticket. 1t was
true in North Dakota and in every
other western state where the popu-
lists had confidently expected to
carry everything. The populists
have lost every vestige of govern
ment they had gained, and their flu.
ture as political organization is
Courier Democrat. (Langdon, N.D.) 1891-1920, 1894-11-15

very uncertain. Another cause that
must not be overlooked was the re-
turn Of a large labor vote to repub-
licanism. The vote is naturally of
that faith, but it was driven away
in 1892 by the nomination of Ried.
The silver question did not seem to
enter into the voting at all. Color
ado, Kansas, Nebraska, all claimed
to be welded to silver, and Mon
tana, the great 91ver-producing
state, all went rel Iblican. 1t is
difficult to sum up the electPn cor
rectly so early in the day but it
would seem a death blow 10 such
idiocy as that taught BY Wallace
and Newton. The jamestown con-
vention will stand as monument
of ignorance and bigotry of a once
hopeful party.
The democrats acted wisely in
trying to stem the the tide flowing
back to republicanism; but the utter
lack of political judgment displayed
by the populists managers made a
winning combination impossible.

SHERMAN ON TIE TARIFF

On the tariff question John Sher-
man is hedging as he gets before
the people.
tsNo duties should be levied for
protection that are not needed for
revenue" he said in his speech a
few days ago at Akron, o.
"The principal object of tariff, .
he added, "should be revenue for
the Government and not a revenue
for few individuals. When there
is surplus the tariff should be re-
duced, and in no case should duties
be imposed solely for the protection
of an industry. No tariff at all
should be placed on articles that we
cannot produce, such as tea, coffee
and Spices"
That is the kind of a defender of
McKinleyism Sherman is on the
stump. He is opposed to McKin-
leyism, as much so as General John
B. Henderson. He is as much
against a high protective tariff as
the Globe-Democrat was in Novem-
Der, 1892, when it announced that
the enactment of the Mckinley bill
was the greatest blunder ever COM
mitted by the Republican party.

the state a body of people to whom
the Plaindealer wishes to say "well

of Cavalier county will accept it,

Throughout the state. The vote of
Cavalier and the democratic MAORI
ties given show that the party in
that county is united, will tolerate
no factional fights, and is working
earnestly in the interested democracy

This is a lesson which the demo-
Gratis in other counties of this state
may learn and profit by. Alesson
which If followed to the letter
would result in victory instead of
humiliating defeat for the party in

large numbers of their party in

party nominees. They voted their

son of loyalty is learned throughout

THERE is question raised in
Walsh county, where Roger Allin
is best known, as to whether he is
illegally naturalized citizen Of tn
state or not. It is stated that the
records show that one Robert
Allan, who came from Canada on
or about October, 1882, took out
his first papers on the 9th Of Feb
ruary, 1854. That Roger Allin
took out his second papers on the
9Th day Of December, 1883. That
said second papers refer to his
first papers as dated February 9,
1884; the first papers being to
Robert Allan and not Roger Allin,
it would appear that Roger Allin
has net yet taken out his first
papers.

The COURIER DEMOCRAT in it's issue
of last week is alone responsible for
the error made in calling the attention
of the voters on the question of issuing
bonds. The error was simply the re-
suit Of over confidence. Owing to the
fact that election day, as rule, comes
Tuesday, We editor supposed that the
18th comes on Tuesday, instead of Mon
day. But as the election notice; pub
lshed four successive issues by Auditor
ALERT, stated Monday the 18th, and
we also give the date as the 18th we do
not presume any great harm was done
or that anybody who did not vote ''for
bonds Monday would have done so
Tuesday. Anyhow, we never did have
that faith in the ignorance of the
average Cavalier county voter that
Editor Kessler attributes to them in
his last weeks issue, and in which he
evidently believes. Nor do we be-
heve that the average voter can be
mislead by any newspaper statement
unless he believes it to be fact and in
unsion with his own reasoning.

simple statement we firmly believe
