MIR. BRyAx's ADDRESS.

Mr.. Bryan's address to the binetal-
lists of the country shows that while he
is defeated he is by no means discour-
aged. AS he says, no cause ever had
supporters more brave, earnest and de
voted than those who have espoused the
cause of bimetallism.' They made a
great and gallant fight and while they
did not achieve success, still they
showed that they were earnest far be-
yond what their opponents gave them
credit for. They have sown seeds that
will yet spring forth and bear an
abundant harvest.
very gratifying feature of Mr.. Bry-
ans address is the kindly and cnari-
table spirit that breathes through it
all. 1t is distinctively American in the
hope that marks it all, in Its great
faith in the people. His political prin-
ciples would have given him this faith
and hope, but his immediate contact
with the people during the campaign
deepened these and made him a firmer
believer in the people than ever before.
The advice he gives should be needed
by all friends of silver He says: Our
opponents have succeeded in this cam
paign, and must now put their theories
to test. Instead of talking myster
iously about sound money and an
honest dollar they must now elabor-
ate and defend a financial system. Ev-
cry step taken by them should be pub
licly considered by the silver clubs. Our
cause has prospered most where the
money question has been longest dis
cussed among the people. During the
next four years 1T will be studied all
over this nation. even more than
it has been studied in the past"
There is outlined a plan of campaign
of education for the next four years.

AMERICA IN THE WORLD.

In his Farewell Address Washington
gave the people of this country the
sage advice to avoid entangling alli-
ances, and thus far it has been strictly
followed. 1t will be wise for this
country to always heed and act upon
this advice. But even when this is
done the great changes that have come
in the shape of commerce and the
facilities of communication between
every political division of the world
make it almost inevitable that this
country shall play an important part
in the worlds history. 1t win be the
destiny of all great countries to do
this
This country's influence, if it adheres
to its traditions, should be on the side
of peace and progress and in the in
terest of humanity. 1t recognizes no
source of power in politics but the peo-
pie, and politics in the world has Moth
ing TO do with anything but the people
and their affairs This government is
not only the greatest but the most
successful experiment in self govern
ment the world has ever seen. Up to
the present time it has fulfilled every
promise. met every expectation.
But this country is also destined to
play an important part in the COM
merce of the world. With our vast re-
sources; the people with their energy
and enterprise, all turned into the

MI3fICRY IN POLITICS.

In 1852 Mr.. Bates the author of "a
Naturalist on the Amazon" read a
PAPER before the Linnean society, in
which he told of the discovery of a new
principle in natural history. The prin-
oiple was that of mimicry. What that
principle is, is best described by Oar
win:
1T had previously been observed, -
says he, that certain butterflies in
South America, belonging to quite dis
tinct families, resembled the heliconi-
dae so closely. in every stripe and shade
of color, that they could not he dis
tinguished except by an experienced
entomologist. AS the heliconidae are
colored in their usual manner. while
others depart from the usual coloring
of the groups to which they belong,
it is clear that the latter are the imi-
tators, and the heliconidae the imi-
tated. Mr.. Bates further observed that
the initiating species are comparatively
rare, while the initiated swarm in large
numbers; the two sets living mingled
together. From the fact of the hell
conidae being conspicuous and beauti-
full insects, yet so numerous in indi-
viduals and species, he concluded that
they must be protected from the at
tacks of birds by some secretion or
odor; and this hypothesis has now been
confirmed by considerable body of
curious evidence. From these consid-
erations Mr.. Bates inferred that the
butterflies which initiate the protected
species had acquired their present mar
velously deceptive appearance through
variation and natural selection, in or
der to be mistaken for the protected
kinds and thus escape being devoured"
There is the principle of mimicry
stated by the greatest of all the natural
lists. 1t is simply the instinct of self
preservation; nothing else. Prior to
the election we were told that the
great masses of the. laboring men in
the large centers of population were
all wearing Mckinley badges, but that
they would vote for Bryan. 1T was al
legged that they wore these badges to
save themselves from being singled out
and dismissed if they refused to be
coerced- 1t was improbable that this
was ever the case; in fact, the result
OF the election proves it not to have

Carrying AT THE CONSTITUTION.

Yesterday morning The Herald an
swered an article that appeared d few
days ago in the New York Times COM
menting upon remark by The Her
aid that the i've silver states-Colo-
RADIO, Nevada, Idaho, Montana and
Utah-have as much power in the SEN
ate as the five greatest states in the
Union-New York, Massachusetts,
Pennsylvania, Ohio and Illinois-and
they are going to use it TO bring about
the restoration of free silver"
The Washington Post takes the mat
ter up and answers the Times. 1t says:
So far as we can discern there is
nothing Of an incenolary or revolution
airy character in The heraldS remark.
The first clause is a mathematical fact
The second clause is the declaration of
an intent TO 40 a lawful thing in a
lawful way. We do not believe the

plisned, for we are convinced that free

But any and every senator has an I'M
doubted right to vote for free coin

TO do with the matter. But the
New York Times is needlessly and
foolishly exasperating in its comments
on the silver states. 1t says that the
power of the ten senators representing
$780, 0S people has been exercised greed
lily and selfishly and wickedly to the
very great injury of the 2, 005, 800, and
of almost all of the people CT the old
states who granted the prayers of the

ting them to the Union
So long as senators do not transcend
their constitutional rights they are not
fairly open to that style of criticism.
When the silver senators joined the
Democratic senators in holding up
revenue bill the Post regretted their
action, and condemned it in proper
terms; but the New York Times and
all the Democratic organs failed to see
anything Objectionable in their course.
There is no wickedness in the thing
that the Times condemns, and the peO-
pie of the old states have nothing to
complain of. 1t were far better to be
waving an olive branch at this time
than to be hurting denunciations.
That is conservative, sensible talk
Certainly those who are complaining
of the power of the smaller states in
American form of government, and
questioning the wisdom of the trainers
of the constitution. These const:tu-
tional provisions are the safeguards of
the peoples liberties. At times they
may seem irlxsome to some portion of
the people and they may desire to
throw them off. These are the very
times when these provisions become the
safeguards of another portion of the
people.
Students of history and politics have
admired the checks and balances in the
American government, and the more
they have studied them the more they
have admired them. Time and exper-
fence and many trials have proven the
wisdom and expediency of all our con-
stitutional safeguards. Let US keep
them intact; let US seek to observe
them in the same spirit in which they
were framed and adopted. Then all
will ever be we'll.

THE FUTURE

Senator Tillman, when asked if the
party would seek to conciliate the gold
Democrats, said: NO; they have a
gold party to which they belong, and
are a good radiance. There can be no
step backward The southern people
ard the eastern Democrats are separ-
ated by an impossible barrier. They
are our taskmasters and we know it.
We have turned TO the west and must
look and work in that direction II
the Democrats had put UP a gold plat
form we would not have carried sin
gle state. The men who claimed to be
the gold Democrats voted for McKin-
ley almost solidly.''
The South Carolinian stated the sit
uation exactly. While the party would
be glad to have the prodigals return,
it cannot afford to make any over
lures to them; they must come back
Internationally and without having
had any hope held out to them that
they could dictate notifications in the
party programme.
The election figures teach US that
the hope of the Democracy lies in CO.
operation between the south and the
west, as pointed out by Senator Till
man. The enormous majorities cast
for gold in the middle and New Eng
land states demonstrate that it is use
less to expect to turn the tide by doing
anything to conciliate the gold senti
ment, which has its seat in those
states. On the other hand, an exam
ination of the figures shows that very
little gain has to be made in the west
to give the Democrats control. In In
diana the majority for gold is only 20,-
000 In Michigan it is not so large as
to preclude the hope that it could be
overcome by a vigorous campaign.
California has gone for gold by a mar
gin so narrow that few votes in each
precinct would reverse the result, and
in Oregon the gold lead is even small
er. The Dakotas are good fighting
ground.
A change of 10000 votes in the states
named. if properly distributed, would
have given Mr. Bryan the election. 1t
is not likely that the silver strength
will decline in those states. On the
contrary, there is every reason TO be-
lieve that it will increase. Certainly it
viii be an encouraging fight to make
when we know that if we can win
over 10000 of those who voted in those
states for gold and at the same time
hold our own elsewhere, we shall con-
troll the presidency in 1900. If the
smallest concession were made to the
gold element we would lose ground
and gain nothing. The people who are
enlisted in this cause are actuated by
principle; they propose to be in po-
sition, when victory comes to them, to
enforce principle, unsullied and unal-
loyed, and they would resent any de-
parture from the manly. consistent
course that has been marked out.

AN AMERICAN PRINCIPLE.

On Sunday last Cardinal Gibbons
preached a sermon in the cathedral at
Baltimore in the course of which he
said:
1--WE are on the eve of a presidential
election, both great parties contending
for the mastery. They are leaving no
stone unGurned in order to be success
fuL a foreigner looking on and wit
Messing the violent denunciation that
one party is uttering against the other
and The terrible predictions in regard
TO the future of the country if the other
party were TO win, would think that we
were on the verge of a dreadful revolu-
ton.
ION next Wednesday morning he
would find that it was but a bloodless
revolution, one effected not by bullets,
but by ballots. A man is to be chosen
TO the highest position in the gift of
his fellows, and important issues are
at stake. Yet on next Wednesday
morning the minority will bow grace
fully to the will of the majority, the
country will survive, and the nation
will flourish and be perpetuated. Is
this not good evidence that we are sub
iect to the law? And the people that
bow so to civil law are not the kind TO
reject divine law"
The eminent prelate very lucidly
stated a great fundamental truth re-
speeding our political methodist fea-
ture of our character as a people that is
at the foundation of our stability as a
nation. Notwithstanding all the bus
ter that is heard during campaigns
there are practically none who have
any idea that one result or another
would jeopardize the government In
the heart of every man there exists
the settled determination TO yield fully
and at once to the verdict recorded at
the polls. There is no purpose any
where TO resist that verdict. Not even
as a possibility does the idea of re-
s.stance hnd a Eodgment in the Ameri-
can breast. The people have faith in
themselves; they know that the future
of their government depends upon their
maintaining good faith with them
selves; and complete acquiescence in
an election verdict is a natural result
of this feeling.
So perfectly is this established DIS a
rule of conduct, that, excepting in COM
9aratively rare instances, the American
people do not permit personal fll-feeling
TO last beyond the count of the ballots.
There are some heartburnings, and
there are some animosities that live on,
but the rule is for the slate TO be wiped

Where is the true mans fatheriand?
Is it where he by chance is born?
Doth not the yearning spirit scorn
In such scant borders to be scanned?
Oh, yesi his fatherland must be

Is it alone where freedom is,
Where God is God and man is man?
Doth he not claim a broader span
For the souls love of home than this?
Oh. yesi his fatherland must be
AS the blue heavens wide and free.
Whereer a human heart doth wear
joys myrtle-wreath or sorrows gives,
Where'er human spirit strives

been. Had a majority of those who
were wearing Mckinley badges really
have been for Bryan at any time they
would have felt their strength and as
serted it. Undoubtedly there were
those who wore Mckinley badges yet
who favored Bryan. But they were
in the minority, and like the imitators
OF the heliconidae of the tropics, they
assimilated their appearance to that of
the beautiful but noxious majority, lin

The wearing of Mckinley badges by
Bryan sympathizers is a clear case of

THE IvDEPENDENr REPUBLICANS.

The Independent Republicans, sacri-
fcing party for principle, aided very
materially in making tbs. Democratic
victory so complete and Overwhelming
as it was The Democrats are fully
conscious of all this and appreciate
what the Independent Republicans did.
The victory is won and many are
naturally wondering whether the tri-
umphant Democrats will give substan-
tial recognition, in the way of deputy
ships, to the Independent Republicans.
We have no hesitation in saying that
it should be done, and that it is our
belief that it will be done. Gratitude
and a just recognition of the wholly
disinterested aid they gave the Demo-
Gratis viii dictate that they be recog-
nized in appointments to deputyships.
Having fought for good government,
it is but right that they be invited in
to help make good government. All
this applies not only to Salt Lake
county, but to every county in the
state. There may be some who would
deny their title to recognition. If any
such there be, no heed should be given
to what they may say.
The Democratic party can make no
mistake if it Will remember that the
people control in all things, and that
they have chosen it as the instrument
to carry out their will. Above all
things the people love justice. Let the
Democratic party throughout the
state do justice by recognizing the In
dependent Republicans, and the people
viii again do justice by the party.
The Independent Republicans are not
asking recognition, but the Democrats
