HOW THEY WILL WIN.

The victory of 1895 viii not be won
by red fire. rockets, crackers and noise,
by oratory in keeping with the explo-
sive pyrotechnics and the vain pre-
fences of misleading and vituperative
stumpers. They may please the un-
thinking and make some impression
on the unstable, but they have ceased
to act as arguments and to operate
as persuaders.
We believe the majority of voters
will pay more heed to the tickets pre-
scented for their suffrages than TO the
means employed to dazzle and delude
them. The principles Of the respective
parties have become much better I'M
derstood than they were a few years
ago, and the great body of our voting
citizens have aligned themselves ac-
cordingly. There are quite a number,
however. who are not committed to
either party and they will weigh we'll
the merits Of the respective candidates,
and cast their votes for those men
whom they believe are best adapted
for the offices.
There are also many Republicans
who will do the same. The judicial
ticket of their party is particularly
weak, and a large number of inf1uen-
tlal men have declared they will not
support it, but will vote for the Demo-
cratic nominees. If that is done on
that portion of the ticket, it is pre-
sumed that the same principle will
govern many in their choice on other
parts of the respective tickets.
In the formation of the new state
the right kind of men for public Office
is a prime consideration, and we be-
lieve that will influence the more
thoughtful among our fellow citizens
The slavery to party which some peo-
pie are advocating is contrary to good
sense, to sound morality, and the
spirit of liberty which should inspire
every freeman's breast.
Let those who think fireworks are
good arguments burn their powder
and have smoke for their pains We
do not think they will count next No
vember. The Democratic party has
placed better men before the people,
and have sounder political doctrines
and more abiding principles than their
opponents can boast, and on these is
sues they expect to win, not on buster
or spectacular effects. in fireworks or
in forensic Nominations

WHO PAYS THE BoUNr1Es.

There are some minds so lacking in
the reasoning faculty that they be-
lieve that in the matter of a tariff
duty the foreigner pays the tax. Such
minds become an easy prey to Repub-
hcanism. Not even the most ardent
advocate of this theory will maintain
for a single moment that when state
grants a bounty to some industry
within its borders the money comes
from anyone but the people who pay
the taxes.
If bounties are TO be paid then the
money to pay them should be raised
by a specific tax The nation at large
can easily do this by the imposition of
a tariff duty on foreign manufactures
of the material the growth of which
it is desired to encourage, but no state
of the American Union has this power.
The only means that any state has
for raising this bounty money is the
general taxing power which must be
exercised upon all its citizens and
cannot be upon any foreigner.
The bounty question is one that
should be seriously considered by the
people, for they must pay these gra'tu-
tiles out Of their own hard earnings.
and every mite taken from them is
so much taken from their little saw
ings. They should ask themselves
whether they would be willing to con-
tribute voluntarily to some enterprise
what the law would compel them to
contribute under a system of bounties.
If they would not, let them ask them
selves whether they would care to be
compelled to make this contribution.
They scarcely would. If they were to
be recipients of a large bounty as the
result of a small tax, they would no
doubt be willing to pay the small tax.
Every citizen who pays taxes knows
that public burdens tend continually
to become heavier rather than lighter,
and that any individual or concern
that has been in the habit of receiving
part of the public money for private
use endeavors to continue it and to
make it appear that the public is bene-
flied by the process. The bounty
system once established will hold on
and use every endeavor to continue the
same as the tariff system has. That
system has grown children so strong
that they have almost threatened the
government that brought them forth.
On this question of continuing
bounties. Hamilton says:
The continuance of bounties on manu-
features long established must always
be Of questionable policy, because a
presumption would arise in every such
case that there were natural and in
herent impediments to success.
In conclusion, we ask every citizen
of Utah this question, If one industry
is entitled to a bounty from the public
treasury, why is not every industry
entitled to a. bounty?

REPuBL1cAx1sM RIDDLED.

The very able and valuable articles
from the pen of Mrs. Emily S. Rich
ards, which have recently appeared in
The Herald, are now compiled in
pamphlet form and may be had at
Democratic headquarters. In forty
four pages of clear type are collected
and presented in admirable style, facts
and figures in support of arguments
that are simply irrefutable. Brought
forward in answer ITO the falsehoods
and mistakes in the leaflet called the
Republican Catechism,'' it goes into
questions on which every citizen
should be informed and furnishes in
formation of value to every Democrat.
It forms piece of campaign litera-
The proofs offered that Republicanism
is responsible for the ruin that has
been wrought on the business, indus
tries and financial affairs Of this
country are so convincing that they
leave no room for dispute. 1t demol-
iahes the "Cafechism" and leaves
nothing of it but what was f1lched
from Democratic doctrine and an
nounced as Republican principles. One
of the most valuable tables in the
pamphlet is that showing the increase
of failures in this country under Re
publican rule, as a consequence of the
contraction of the currency and other
Republican measures In 1863 there
we're 4S5 failures in the United States,
with liabilities to the amount of &c.
S64, 700 In 1890, the failures were 49,
$50 with liabilities to the tune of $4OS,
566,605. The gradual growth of trouble
is shown by the figures for every year
between the periods named and it can
readily be seen how the troubles grew
under Republican maladministration
until they eliminated about the time
the Democratic party came into power
in 1898. Everybody who inclines ITO the
notion that Democratic ascendancy
was the cause of the late panic and
the hard times which followed should
read the pamphlet written by Mrs.
Richards.

COME BACK, We srRAYED.

In the early stages of the division
movement, the specious proposition
that there should be an equal division
of the Mormon people between the two
leading parties was accepted by num-
bers of men who were by conviction
Democrats. These men deemed it good
policy temporarily to vote Repub-
lican tickets and assist the Republican
cause. But though members of that
party in outward appearance, their
hearts were still true to their first love.
The time has now come when these
misguided citizens have seen the error
of their way and information reaches
US from numerous places that they are
returning to the fold. We bid them a
hearty welcome. To those others who
have not yet identified themselves with

THE WELSH AND THEIR FESTIVAL

The great musical festival which has
been held in this city, a resume of
which we publish today, was notable
event in the history of Utah. The
large attendance was remarkable. The
talent it brought to notice is merely
an indication of what exists, to some
extent unknown, in the community
which is laying the foundations of a
new state in the midst of these noun
tains. When brought into competition
with folks from affair they suffer moth
ing by comparison. 1t is gratifying to
know that Utah carried off so large a
share Of the prizes contended for in
every department of the Eisteddfod.
The Welsh people have long been
famed for efficiency in the divine art.
The Welsh bards are celebrated in song
and story. The literature of the Prin-
cipality abounds with gems in poetry
and prose, and it is because of the lit
tie knowledge of their language among
other peoples that the world does not
fully appreciate their excellence.
To enjoy perfectly Welsh music one
words. and in the lovely wales and
dells amid the hills of Wales. Although
the Welsh language contains many
rugged and peculiar sounds, is has also
as soft and liquid tones as the Italian
and Notwithstanding its difficult gut
terals and labials it is eminently adap-
ted to the sweetest and most touch
ing of musical expressions.
The Welsh are a remarkable people,
as is evidenced in the fact that dwell
ing in g. portion of the main land of
Great Britain, and their nation becom-
ing actually absorbed politically into
the English, they have yet preserved
their identity, their language, their
national characteristics, their institu-
lions and their patriotic fervor and
brotherhood Even in this land where
they readily embrace the principles of
free government and become identified
with all that is American, they exhibit
the traits that made their forefathers
famous and preserve their ancient ira
ditions and customs.
The Eisteddfod in Salt Lake City
was grand occasion for the Welsh
people Of Utah and their countrymen
from distance. It brought them
nearer into union with their fellow citf-
zens Of other national origin, and the
result cannot fail to be beneficial to
all For, although we speak of them
as the Welsh and the term Eisteddfod
is used as the name of their festival of
contests, we recognize the fact that
they are an integral part of the Ameri-
can people, and of the great republic of
the United States. We congratulate
our friends on their grand success.

HAVING DONE a wrong the policy of
declaring that it was not a wrong but
was right is sometimes adapted by
those who perpetrated it in the belief
that they will eventually make people
believe as they assert. 1t must have
been some such idea as this that
prompted that good Republican paper.
the St. Louis Globe Democrat, to de-
clare that "th'e simple truth is, as
these statistics prove, that the legisla-
ton of 1873 with regard to silver, which
the free-coiners never tire of denounc-
ing in the most indignant and scurril-
Gus terms, did not do any harm to the
wage-earners, but rather tended to in
crease their savings, and to promote
their comfort and happiness"

IS GALL FAIR IN PoLrT1cs:"

"AlTs fair In politics; I suppose you
admit that" was the remark Of re-
spected friend yesterday to the writer
of this article. "No, sir" was the re-
ply, 81 do not believe in any such
thing" 1t is needless to add that the
interrogation was a Republican That
is Republican policy, as defined in
other words but with similar pur-
pose, by that once eminent Republican
leader Senator ingalls,. When asked
to tell in few words what was Repub-
lican policy, he replied, Get there.
That seems to be the guide Of many
of our Republican friends who have
taken the stump this year. 1t was
hoped that they would conduct their
campaign on respectable lines That
they would not impute wrong motives
and spread false reports about their
opponents. That they would fight on
the issues which they say constitute
principle" That, though reluctant
for obvious reasons to urge the battle
on MEN, they would at least be con-
tent with making comparisons in their
own way fairly, and not resort ITO viii
LITIGATION and falsehood to defame
character.
We say most emphatically that we
do not believe in the theory that "All
is fair in politics" On the contrary,
we denounce it as a damnable doc
trine. That men who would not I'M
der ordinary circumstances do any
thing dishonest nor say anything will
fully untrue, will stoop to any kind OF
low trickery and deception and mis-
actions of others, in order to promote
the interests of political party, is
one of the inconsistencies developed by
politics, and is shameful to the lowest
degree.
In every contention, political or 9TH
erwise, differences of opinion will pro-
mote heat and sometimes extravagant
language and bias that does not lead
to the truth. But when these differ
ences are honest and genuine. they can
be passed over or INDUCED in without
injury to the moral character of the
QlSpQIdnIS. NOL 50 WdeH mastery Is
the end and aim, without regard to
truth ard fairness and the mind is
swayed by the impious motto, CAN is
fair in politics.
We believe IN one standard for all
discussions and contentious, and that
is, the maintenance Of honest. convic-
tons. Much can be condoned when
this is the rule. But when either par
ty to a dispute exhibits Indifference to
the truth and to the means employed
to get there" then anger is engen-
dered in the opposition. and trouble is
often thereby created which has most
unfortunate and regretable couse-
quences.
Let US each stand UP for what we
believe to be right. Let US each sup
port the men whom we believe the
best suited for the positions they are
nominated to fill, and if in the heat
of debate some excuses occur they
will be pardoned by the wise. But let
us not stoop to Intentional deception
or resort to unfair or dishonorable
methods to get there" under the ex-
ecrable doctrine that "All is fair in
politios''
