SOME EDITORIAL COMMENTS.

Every citizen who wants to vote for
free coinage in the coming presidential
election must cast his ballot for the
Bryan and Sewal electors nominated by
the Democratic state convention in each
state. Any division of the free coinage
vote might mean defeat at the polls, and
hence there should be no division in vot-
ing for presidential electors.-Denver Re-

DEMOCRATIC PLATFORM.
MINORITY REPORT,


We agree with the report of the ma
jority in sc far as the tariff and pen
sions are concerned, but we are OPP
posed to the free coinage of silver, and
in favor of maintaining the gold stand
ard.
The debate was very animated, and
the decisions of the presiding officer
were irrespective of majcrities if they
did not correspond with his own ideas.
For instance, when Mr., Charles Francis
Adams, one of our fellow passengers,
was proposed as president, although he
was a Democrat, he was ruled out be-
cause he was not sound on the Salt
Lake view of silver, and when Senator
Aldrich of Rhode Island, who was pres
ent, was nominated, he, too, was ruled
cut for the same reason. His being a
Republican was not objected to, as that
was a minor consideration.
We finally settled on this curious
conlbination-Debs for president and
Pullman for vice-presidsn whose
chances of election would be about on
a par with those nominated by the
convention at Chicago.
JOHN GOODMAN.
London, England.
We are satisfied that by this time
the captain and his fellow passengers
have modified their views on the
chances of the Democratic nominees.
It is not unlikely that this .nid-ocean
convention named Debs and Pullman
because the delegates were all half seas
over. This convention was unique in

A m1D-ocGAx CONVENTION.

Genial Captain John Goldman, the

ing an account of a convention
held on the steamship Paris
on the same date that the
Chicago convention was held 1t will
be of especial interest to Salt Lake
people because Judge Hayden of this
city unanimously elected himself chair
man while the captain himself was
made chairman of the committee on
resolutions. Then the Salt Lake idea
on silver was made the test of fitness
for Office. But let the captain tell the
story of that convention in his own
words:
Coming over on the Paris we had, on
the evening Of the Chicago convention,

DOGS NOT WELCOME.
Just at Present They Are Unpopular at
Leicester.


1t will be remembered that the poor
Indian, upon whose untutored mind the
poet condescendingly comments, is ex-
hibited to us as being under the erTo-
neous impression that, when he shall
be promoted TO an equal sky, his faith
full dog will bear him company, says the
Pail Mall Gazette The most sophisti-
Gated mind of the average Briton does
not, perhaps, carry the conception so
far; still, that Briton's idea undoubted-
~ is that where he goes his dog, at his
charges, may go too. 1t would be well,
therefore, to point out at any rate
just at present he and his dog would not
go to Leicester, because, though the
Leicester hotel keepers would be quite
ready and willing to receive him, they
would in all probability absolutely de-
cline to receive-or, in legal phrase, to
harbor-his canine companion.
The reason for their declining to do
so lies IN the fact that Leicester ho-
tel keeper has recently, in the opinion
of the lord chief justice and Mr.. Justice
Wright, harbored visitors dog once
too often. This particular dog be-
longed to A.; B., another visitor, at the
same hotel, must needs take the dog
for drive in cab. The dog may have
been dissatisfied with the turnout, or
he might have had private ends of his
own to gain; but, anyhow, he bit the
cab horse. The driver proceeded for
compensation-not against B., through
whose instrumentality the dog had
been put in the way of biting the horse.
nor against A., who, as owner, might
have been considered responsible for
the dogs actions. The driver knew his
dog owners act (1s65), section 2, better
than that. He proceeded against the
occupier of the house or premises where
the dog was permitted to live-the no
tel keeper, to wit, and he triumphed.
That is why Leicester hotel keepers de-
cline to harbor dogs just now.
