would feel good deal safer if we had

forced by the national authorities. AS
it is now the laws are likely to be very

Coxey's army consisting of several hum
dred tramps, has at last arrived in Wash
ington hungry and footsore and without
visible means of support. Apparently
nothing stands between them and star
walton but the charity of the people OF the
District of Column bia. There is no work
for them even if they were Willing to
work which is very doubtful. What Is
to becomesof them? If they have enter
tanned the idea that Congress will make
an appropriation for them directly or in
directly they must soon become dis
abused of that notion and find that they
have arrived at the capital only to meet
disappointment and disaster. II they are
men capable of reasoning it must soon
occur. to them that the source of their
trouble is y. S. Coxey Of Massilon, Ohio,
who has held out to then. promises OF
assistance if they would only follow
him TO Neutrality-suspicious. which be
will be utterly unable to fulfil. When
this dawns upon them we imagine that
their feelings toward Coxey are not go
ing to be of the pleasaEtest kind. Men
who have practiced deception less cruel
than thai which Coxey has practiced Oh
these men have been beaten with many
stripes by their angry dupes. Coxey is
in imminent danger of encountering that
or a worse punishment. If the comman-
der of the army of the commonWeal IS
wise he will avail himself of the opp or
tunity to flee before his army realizes the
predicament they are in. 1.-The waits he

The poor showing which the hrsS de-
tachment of Coxey's army to arrive IN
Washington has made will have very
depressing effect upon the other detach-
ments which are trying to get there,
and very likely will break them up.
The most forlorn detachment OF

Now Tells of the Dismemberment of the
Union and the Downfall of the Natio nal
Capital.
Correspondent Washington Start
Salt Lake city, Utah, April 2, 1894.
In lonely spot on bench of the
Wahsatch mountains, not far from
Provo, resides an old man who came to
Utah in the early days AS captain of
one of the hand cart companies of
emigrants He was even at that time
recognized as seer and revelator, and,
according to general belief among the
enthusiasts comprising his company,
was recognized favored one of God
the mouthpieces through which was
made known the Divine will and to
whom was revealed the future.
Known to the world as Joab Small
wood, he insisted that his name was
simply "Joab;" that the family name
of Smallwood was a worldly attach
ment, but that he came from a line of
prophets, and that the Smallwood name
was an honor bestowed upon the
family by his presence.
He was at once accorded high place
in the pr iestly councils upon arrival in
the valley of Zion; his voice and his
warnings ever being against the ungodly
and the unregenerated, who bad at a
later date forced themselves within the
confines of the holy land. His voice,
whether under inspiration or not was
always against those who refused or
neglected to accept the words of the
Prophet, Joseph Smith, in the revel-
ations made through other chosen
vessels
In 1854 he was located near Nephi,
and was then given to revelations, and
was frequently consulted by Brigham
Young, who was supposed to be inspired
whenever he conceived some new
scheme for the benefit of himself or his
people, The apostles, recognizing tine
usefulness of the modern Prophet Joab,
took especial pains to spread broadcast
all his utterances and urge upon his
people to heed them as the word of God.
In November, 1854, Joab Smallwood
in long revelation, predicted the late
civil war and the long train of events
following it,
A REMARKABLE PROPHECY.
He then declared that out of that strug-
gle would come freedom to millions
of people, who in some future age,
would possess a kingdom of their own.
Added to these were the following words:
"But even at the close of the struggle
between the people OF this nation, in
which hundreds of thousands will have
sacrificed their lives, the bloody chap

date of the people to pass some sort of a

has got there it is announced that the
radical reformers have surrendered COM

The outlook Tor base ball this season
is said to be unusually good. The
league games so far have attracted more
spectators than for many years past.
Doubtless there is an intimate connec-
ton between the boom in this business
and the dulness in the ordinary occupa-
tions, the latter affording men plenty OF
leisure to see base ball.

The Manchester Union, prominent
Democratic paper, is out of all patience
at the selfish and dictatorial spirit of
the Southern Democrats to which it at
tributes largely the present forlorn pre-
dicament of the Democratic party. Sue
cessful reform was endangered" 1t says,
"if not fatally injured when the Demo-
Gratis of the finance committee of the
Senate did not.answer the threat of Sen
ators White, Morgan and Pugh by say
ing to such gentlemen then and there
that their demand could not be acceded
to. and they could assume the RESPONSE
bility of defeating the measure If they
chose, instead of surrendering at this
important juncture. 1t would have been
the prosperity of the country to have
ended sectional and selfish strife then
and there, or compelled those men to as
sumo the responsibility of defeat. North
ern States are in no mood to receive or
accept absolute dictation from the South
ern States, and, as much as all honest
Democrats desire a reasonable reduction
of prohibitory tariff duties, they will
neither be coaxed, cajoled nor coerced
into an approval of sectional bill that
means great injury to her great indus
tries, and The Union believes that such
gifted men as Governor Russell and 9TH
ers and the press of the East should
bend their energies to securing an abso-
Lutte change of front until a bill is form
late that will embody tariff reform ideas
without being destructive, or the men
in the South who demand something
else, take the responsibility"

modification of the bill to suit HIPS
views will probably improve it somewhat
but if the Senate would abandon it alto

rise to Coxey armies would be imme-

Over five hours were devoted to the dis

Senator Hill, the first to except the inter

and the second to exempt the interest on
state bonds from the operation Of the tax.

the state the organs of the governors
own party lavishly praising him, the OPP
position sheets grudgingly admitting
that he had more backbone than they
had given him credit for. Public opin-
ion, like the cat Of the simile, had
jumped, and that unmistakably.
''hl the name of all that's wonderful,
sheriff" said the bewildered governor,
'who signed all those petitions? If
the papers wanted the man hanged,
why in the fiend's name did they not
say so before and save me all this wor-
ry? Now, how many know of this sup
pressed dispatch?"
"Well there's you and your subordi-
mates here and'-
wen say nothing about it. !"
"And then there is me and Bowen in

own sake, and you won't mention it?"
Certainly not. F"
''Then let's all keep quiet. The

fellows don't get after it. It's not on
