THE UTAH DELEGATION.

The action of the Utah delegation to
the st. Louis convention will be more
or less Of a disappointment to the Re
publicans in the state They are all
for silver, but it is not at all certain
that they are all in favor of bolt.
The convention which elected them
gave them no instructions upon the
question. and the absence of any such
instructions can. only be construed as
being against a bolt. Their case is
entirely different from that of the
Colorado delega ton. 1t was instructed
TO follow whatever course Senator
Teller deemed best. Such instructions
make perfectly plain and proper that
part of the statement read to the con-
vention by Senator Cannon wherein it
says: Accepting the fat of this con-
Vention as the present purpose of the
party, we withdraw from this conven-
ton TO return to our constituents the
authority with which they invested us,
/ believing we had better discharge their
trust by this action which restores to
them authority unsullied than by giving
| cowardly and insincere endorsement to
the greatest wrong ever wilfully at
tempted within the Republican party
! once the redeemer of the people. but
now about to become their oppressor,
unless providentially restrained by the
votes of freemen.''
Only part Of the Utah delegation
took this action, and it was given no
authority whatever to withdraw in the
event of certain contingencies. What
! of the authority of Senator Brown.
/ Mr. Mccormick and Colonel Trumbo?
Senators Teller and Cannon, and the
other gentlemen who walked out of
/ the convention. by their act severed
their connection with the Republican
party and withdrew from it as effec-
! tually as it was possible for them to
do. Senator Cannon. Representative
/ Allen and Mr.. Kearns are arrayed
i against Senator Brown. Mr.. Mccormick
and Colonel Trumbo. The stand taken
! by what may be termed the indepen-
dent free silver wing of the delegation
| is so radical that the party at home
cannot endorse Fthe action of both
wings. The question is, Which will it
indorse and what method will it take
4 10 make its Endorsement known? 1t is
/ likely that no action will be taken on
the matter until the Republican state
convention for the nomination of presi-
Dental electors and congressional
candidate meets. 1t may be that it
viii make the meeting of that conven-
ton earlier than it otherwise would
be. The action of the boiling delegates
may SOW the seeds of very serious dis
cord in the party. 1t will be interest
ing to watch their development.

It is natural that along with new de-
vices for killing men on the battlefield
thousand at time there should come
inventions for disposing Of them after
they are dead, Of this kind is the travel
ing crematory, which has been proposed
first in Germany and then elsewhere
The design is to construct furnace on
wheels with the conveniences for reduc-
ing dead bodies to ashes quickly. A
sufficient number of such crematories is
to be attached to every army. AS regu-
larly as the hospital corps the crematory
corps will march with the soldiers in
time of war and probably be stationed
with them in time Of peace. The sani-
tary and other advantages of such an
arrangement are apparent. Secretary
Lamont is investigating the practical
bility OF the crematory attachment for
the United States army. It is to be
hoped that many a year will elapse be-.
fore the United States is involved in
another war At least it is to be hoped
one will not come till we pay the debt
. incurred by the last one. But in case
one should occur, the crematory will be
convenient.

The Electoral Vote.

The great change that has been
wrought lin the original scheme Of
choosing an American president is
clearly set forth in volume Q Of George
Ticknor Curtis Constitutions His
tory Of the United States published
since his death.
Mr.. Curtis shows how it was not
meant at all by the founders Of our gov
ernmeus that the people themselves
should vote for president The founders
of this government did not believe the
people had sense enough to choose a
president. The fathers thought the peo-
pie were ignorant and would be at the
mercy of any fascinating demagogue
that could win their admiration. So ia
was provided, with much ceremonious
machinery, that the people might choose
electors, and the electors should choose
the president 1t was the intention to
leave the electors perfectly free as indi-
viduals, each to vote for whom he
chose. If he did not admire the man
the people wanted him to vote for, then
he had a perfect right to vote for some
other man. To this day the elector has
that right, though he would be bold
man indeed who would dare to exer-
oise it. 1t would be the end Of him
politically.
The change came about through the
hard and fast organization of the polit-
ical party. On this point Mr.. Curtis
says:
A practice which has grown up within the
past 90 years has entirely frustrated the orig
NAL design of the electoral system of choosing
the president. This has been the consequence
Of the activity, the powerful organization and
discipline of the political parties, whose nomi-
mating conventions have imposed on the cleo
toral college an obligation that has come to
have the force of law without it's sanctions or
safeguards All the political parties that have
existed in this country for more than half a
century are alike responsible for this depar-
ture. from the constitution, for they have all
used the same methods.

Under Which Flag?

The experiences Of two brothers, re-
turned prisoners, who suffered at the
hands of the Spaniards in Cuba the loss
of all their worldly possessions may
give this government and its citizens
something to think about.
Briefly, the brothers were thrown into
prison along with hundreds Of other po-
litical suspects. They had been guilty
of no crime except that Of owning prop
erty in Cuba. While they thus lay in
prison, waiting to be either set free or
shot, they had plenty Of time to make
observations. One of the facts they not
ed and treasured up in their minds was
this: At intervals of short time the
British consul at Havana came regularly
to the fortress and called aloud: 'Are
there any Englishmen or British sub
jects in this prison? If there are, let
them step out here. y
If there was British subject there.
he did not wait for second call, but
stepped out with alacrity. The consul
Investigated his case, and if there was
no well founded serious charge against
him that Englishman got his liberty in
short order. But no American consul
came thus promptly to the relief of i'm
prisoned United States citizens No
orders came from the United States gov
eminent looking to the, protection Of its
children. On the whole, is it any Won
der that there are flags more respected
among the nations than that Of the
American republic?
