sible. The Good Templars now have twenty lodges and SS0 members in the territory, a gain of 45 per cent last year. The strongest lodges as shown by the grand secretarys report are: Phoenix, IA; Bisbee, S9 Tempe, 81; Stafford, 50, and Prescott, 55. Not withstanding the grand lodge spent more than $1,OOO in the lecture field last year it is free from debt and has money in the treasury. There is talk of sending Jay B. Edwards to Jerome and the Verde in the interests of the lodges up there. Efforts are soon to be made to organize a lodge in Globe, as the smelters there have started up and the town is lively again. Tempe lodge has challenged our home lodge for a debate some time next month. Fun ahead. Tomorrow night the members of Garden Valley lodge will be divided into two companies by Cap Itains Dysart and Frary. Good pro grammes will be arranged for each meeting hereafter. "Is Marriage a FNailure?" will be briefly discussed to- morrow night. Our lodge has new male quartette composed of Bros. Dysart, Frary, Walbridge and Wilson, which will add greatly to the enter tainment in the lodge room. You must join the Good Templars to be in the swim. CLEOPATRA.

SYNOPSIS OF FAUST.

In brief the plot is as follows: Faust, learned alchemist, doctor of philos- ophy, having reached that age when all the pleasures that this world con tains fails, invokes the aid of the spir- its ito give him new emotions that life might be worth living. In response to his frenZied appeal MepIhisto appears and agrees to give Faust youth, health and passions, and all the pleasurable enjoyment to be drawn therefrom, upon condition that when the gamut has been run his soul shall belong to Mephisto. Faust is dazzled and held spellbound by a beautiful vision of Marguerite, wrapped in an angelic halo, which fades away as he passion ately rushes upon it. He accedes to Mephisto's demand and "a compact is drawn between them. The aged and senile philosopher is transformed into a handsome youth, burning with pas sion and eager with anticipation. From this time forward his one thought is of Marguerite. Then follow his meet ings with her, their mutual love, his betrayal of Iher confidence, the poison ing of her mother while seeking only to make her slumber more deeply, the return of Valentine, her soldier broth CT, whose anguish and rage know no bounds when informed of his blasted home. He meets Faust and by the devils aid is killed Insidious Me phisto excites the justice loving neigh bors of Marguerite by informing them of the seeming unnatural murder of her mother, and she is carried off to prison. Faust finds his way into Mar guerite's cell through the intervention of the devil, only to find poor Mar guerite partially demented. He pro- poses to carry her away to escape the dread consequences of her crime, but at this time itbe gentle spirit goes out and Mephisto claims Faust as his own, who is saved by the intervention of the spirit of repentance and remorse This story made famous by the i'm mortal Goethe (the Shakespeare of Germany is standard, and as pre- senited by Morrison's company is fla nous the country over.

CHAIRMAN LANES ADDRESS.

chairman Charles D. Lane, of the
National Bimetal1ist party, has issued
an ADDRESS to the bimetallists OF the
country It is somewhat late. but is
very Good- Well known facts are re-.
cited and some good advice given.
Chairman Lane accepts the, result of
the election as the decision of the
American people and thinks it should
be oheyed as such. and that the people
should do all in their power to make
the incoming administration a success
The people have accepted the result
of the election and wish the new ad-
nlinistration, when it takes hold. every
success. But Chairman Lane goes fur
Their than this. He says that while
we as bimetallists still adhere to the
conviction that there can be no GER
manent relief to the people based upon
the single gold standard and that time
will demonstrate the accuracy of our
position. We at the same time regard
it as duty enjoined upon every citi-
zen to do everything in his power to
assist the president-elect in every eff
fort 70 promote the welfare of the
people BIZ any policy which he may
consider VIII accomplish the result
1t may very well be doubted whether
the duty of binetallists and others who
do not acce-t President elect McKin-
ley's political creed requires that they
so so far as to do all in their power
TO assist him in every effort to promote
the welfare of the, people by any policy
which he may consider will accomplish
the result. 1t is not at all impossible.
not even improbable. that he may
adopt policies whose object would be
the welfare of the people. in his iuds-
ment, which would require that they
be actively opposed. Defeat at the
polls does not mean absolute quies-
ceace in any and all policies that may
be adopted by victorious party.
When a campaign has been fought
and the people have decided upon one of
two policies. the policy decided upon is
entitled to fair trial to prove itself
And this fair trial means that those
who contended for another policy, but
were defeated. shall permit those who
triumphed 10 make fair trial of their
policy without obstruction. There is
no requirement of active assistance;
nor does victory at the polls give IL
cense N power nor deprive the de-
feated of any of their rights as citi-
zens. EVERYBODY will wish Major Nc
Kinley a successful and prosperous ad-
minisuation. as it will be of great
benefit to the people.

THE STRUGGLE IN CUBA.

1t may be set down as certain that
within the next three months Spain
will put forth all her might to subdue
Cuba and get the rebellion under con-
troll She will do this because of the
very strong note of warning contained
in the presidents message. This same
note Will serve as a stimulant to the
insurgents TO put forth their mightiest
efforts to maintain their present ad-
vantages and increase them if pos
sible.
Spain will fear that recognition will
be given Cuba as. an independent ma
ton, and Cuba viii hope for it. This
should make the struggle in the island
fast and furious during the next few
months.
1t is not because the sympathy of
the American people with the Cubans
has had no effect upon the administra-
ton that they have not been recog-
nized either as belligerents or as an
independent nation. but because they
have had no real government that
could be recognized and with whom
diplomatic relations could be estab-
lished. Secretary Olney's report makes
this plain. He says:
So far as our information shows, there
1 is not only no effective local govern
ment by the insurgents in the terri
tories they overrun, but there is not
even tangible pretense to established
administration anywhere. Their organ
ization, confined to the shifting eX-
igencies of the military operations Of
the hour, is nOmadic without definite
centres, and lacking the most elemen-
tary features of municipal government
There nowhere appears the nucleus Of
statehood. The machinery for eXercis-
ing the legitimate rights and powers
Of sovereignty and responding to the
obligations which de facto sovereignty
entails in the face of equal rights of
other states, is conspicuously lacking
1t is net possible to discern a homo
geneous political entity possessing and
exercising the functions of admins
tration, and capable, if left to itself. of
maintaining orderly government in its
own territory and sustaining normal
relations with the external family OF
governments.
The Cubans will redouble their eff
forts to establish and maintain this
homogeneous political entity that they
may claim the recognition that is real
ly waiting for them. To prevent this
will henceforth be Weyler's great OBJ
ject. Which party will succeed, can
not now be definitely stated. At pres
ent everything indicates that the final
great struggle is not far off. May
Cuba be the victor

THE GREENBACKs.

Many people speak of the greenbacks
as though they were a precious hertz
age, something like the Declaration of
many respects they are handler than.
those two documents, but they haven't
anything like the same sacred charac-
ter.
The New York Tribune, discussing
them, says that the government can
in any event give value to its notes by
making them receivable for taxes, and
it can and does make part of its notes
a legal tender and guarantees their
redemption in gold on demand"
That sounds very like fiatism, OF
which the advocates of free silver dur
ing the campaign were so freely ac-
cused, though they were not asking
that the government issue paper
money. the value OF which was to be
determined by the size of the figures
upon the face, and nothing else The
Tribune says that the government can
in any event give value to its notes by
making them receivable for taxes. and
that it does make them a legal tender
and guarantees their redemption in
gold. Then from this it must be in
ferred that the government can give
some value to a thing valueless in
itself.
During the campaign the contention
Of the silver men was that it was the
characterization of silver that had
caused it to depreciate, and that If it
were remonetized and made full legal
tender, it would appreciate to a parity
with gold at the old ratio of Is to l.
Their opponents said there was moth
ing in the argument that the legal
tender quality impaired value: but
there certainly is.
The retirement of the greenbacks
cannot fail to yet become a party
question. Their real value must al
ways rest upon the amount of gold the
government can command to redeem
them. Their hardness is their chief
value for use, and perhaps it will be
impossible TO completely do away with
paper money in some form. Some new
currency scheme may yet be evolved
that will supplant the present one.

WOMAN SUFFRAGE IN IDAHO.

The supreme court of Idaho has de-
clded that the woman suffrage amend
ment to the state constitution was
adopted at the late election. This is "a
matter of congratula ton TO all who are
interested in the equal rights move
ment, and to the people of Idaho in
particular
The question came before the court
in rather a peculiar shape. The ques-
ton at issue was what constituted a
majority within the meaning of the
phrase "a majority of the electors. -
There were two interpretations. One
was that it meant a majority of the
highest number of electors voting for
any candidate or proposition, While the
other was that it meant a majority of
all the votes cast on the proposition.
This latter Interpretation was the one
adopted by the court. and will no
doubt give much satisfaction to the
people of Idaho.
The great objection to woman suff-
rage is prejudice and nothing else. In
half of the families of the land it is the
wife who really administers the income
of the family and makes it go much
further than the husband possibly
could. Few married men take any i'm
portant step without consulting their
wives and getting their opinion and
Judgment. Why shouldn't their opinion
and judgment be sought on public
matters? 1t would be absolutely i'm
possible for women to be greater fail
ures in office than many men are. 1t
would also be an impossibillty for
women to follow political leaders more
blindly than men do. Herein they will
perhaps always be the superiors of the
men.
What the ultimate influence of wom-
en- in politics will be, no one can say:
probably not so great one way or the
other as many fancy. In all local
matters it should have a tendency to
rid politics of much that is now OBJ
jectionable.
This decision in Idaho emphasizes
anew the saying that westward the
star of empire takes it's way.

TO Los ANGELES.

"a deep sea harbor and a railway to
Salt Lake City are two things which
Los Angeles wants, and wants right
away, and all southern California
wants the same things" says the Los
Angeles Herald. 1t is to be hoped that
the city of Los Angeles will get both,
but the people of Utah are more deeply
interested in the railway project
Last spring things looked very favor
able for the construction of a railroad
from this city to Los Angeles. The
gentlemen who were at the head of the
enterprise had every assurance that
the money for the roads construction
would be forthcoming when needed,
the capitalists who were to fur
nish it having satisfied them
selves of the feasibility and profitable
ness of the proposed undertaking. But
the presidential campaign came on and
the money centers of the country be-
came greatly alarmed and the alarm
spread 10 oil sections Of the country.
The capitalists who were to furnish
the bulk of the money for the proposed
road were also seized with this alarm
and refused to go on with the project.
Their refusal put a stop to the whole
business. The gentlemen who first I'M
dertook the enterprise are again be-
stirring themselves in the matter and
trying to induce capitalists to assist
them. Everyone in the state will wish
them success.
This city needs a direct outlet to
southern California fully as much as
Los Angeles needs another outlet to
the east. 1t is also needed for the de-
velopment of the state. The southern
part of the state is exceedingly rich
in resources of all kinds which are
sadly in need of development This
development will not be possible until
railroad facilities are provided. The
iron and coal deposits in some of the
southern counties are so great that

NATIONAL EDUCATIONAL AssOCIA-
TION.

1t is not at all improbable that the
National Educational association could
be induced to hold its annual session
for 1898 in this city if a proper effort
were made 1t is desirable that the
association should come to this city
in 1898; many advantages both intel
lectual and material. would result
from having it come. The regular and
other meetings usually consume a
week.
If an effort is made to secure the an
nual session for 1898 for this city. the
committee extending the invitation
should be enabled to give assurance
that those who shall attend will be
properly entertained. To do this the
citizens would have to open their
homes to the visitors as the hotel ac-
commodations would be totally made
quate. The attendance at these ses-
from $4,000 to 10000 When the asso-
citation held its session in San Fran
cisco in 1885 the attendance was about
1900. Could the association be in
duced to select this CITY, it is reason
able to suppose that the attendance
would be as large as it was when the
session was held in California
The question of inviting the asso-
citation to hold session here is one
that should be thought over by the
citizens before anything definite is done
1t means responsibility and some ex-
pense. and these should be carefully
considered. The benefits of all kinds
to be derived from having the associa-
ton meet here are almost incalculable.
It would be a splendid thing for the
city and for Utah. and if a session can
be secured it should be. but there
should be no leap in the dark
