THE DEMOCRATIC OPPORTUNITY.

1t becomes more evident every day
that there is coming to the great Dem
ocratic party of the United States a
great opportunity in the present cam
paign.
The Republican party is absolutely
confident of success in the next presi-
dental election; and with political par
ties as with mortals generally-secur-
ity is their worst enemy. That Sc
curity and the madness of the deter
mination that has seized the Republi-
can party to commit this country to
the single gold standard, gives to the
Democratic party an opportunity to
align itself on the right side of the
great issue-proclaim for the free, I'M
limited and Independent coinage of sill
yer, and thus undo the mischief the
Republican party has done, restore
prosperity to the people, prove itself
the peoples friend, win the confidence
Of the country and re-establish the
prestige once enjoyed by the party and
of the nation.
This it is possible to do, by meeting
squarely on the money issue the Re
publican party. Republicans them
selves see our opportunity and their
press speaks of it. The Denver Re
publican in recent article discussing
the situation, and the probable action
Of the parties, said:
Our own opinion IS that the Chi
cago convention will be compelled to
come out flat-footed for the reopening
of our minis to the unrestricted coin
age of both silver and gold at the ratio
of Is to 1. and if it does so there will
then be a fierce scramble among the
presidential possibilities who believe in
bimetalliSm to secure the nomination.
If the Republican national conven-
ton, which meets at S.. Louis two
weeks earlier adopts straight-out
single gold standard platform, or. what
is quite as bad, soma such meaningless
straddle as the Ohio plank, it is only
reasonable to suppose that the Demo-
cratic convention will feel compelled to
declare for bimetallism. There is lit
tie reason to doubt that bimetallic
Democratic ticket could carry the solid
south, and it would have an excellent
chance of securing a sufficient number
of electoral votes among the silver
states and the agricultural states adj
joining them to insure its victory at the
polls. The nomination of such a ticket
would necessarily involve a reputation
of the financial views of the present
administration, but if a large major
ity of the party really believe in BIZ
metallism that achievement should not
be a very difficult matter to the Chi
cago convention.
If a Republican paper can see and
admit the Democratic advantage in
this issue, worse than bat-blind will
be the Democratic party if it cannot be
made to see it at the Chicago conven-
ton; and it will deserve the defeat
that awaits it if it refuses to take up
the gage of battle that the Republi-
can convention at st. Louis will I'M
questionably thrown down.
Free, unlimited and independent
coinage of silver, revenue tariff and
economical government, can win in
1896 against a single gold standard,
high protection and extravaganza in
government

DEMOCRATIC COMMITTEES MEETING

The converting of the state Demo-
cratic committee last evening to con-
slider the propriety of holding two con-
mer, and to counsel together in respect
to other matters, developed the fact
that an intense interest is still taken
in Democratic affairs, and if our Re-
publican friends in this state have
been dreaming that there was a walk
over for them in this state in the next
campaign, there is in store for them a
rude awakening.
In addition to the members of the
state committee there were a large
number of representative Democrats
from all parts of the state, and they
will return to their homes and begin
the work for Democracy.
A number of leading Democratic la
dies were present and their announce
ment that they find the sentiment
among the women of Utah to be that
they are ready to work right in with
the regular Democratic party organ
ization without separate organlza-
ton, and to bear their share OF the
work and partake of all the fortunes
of the party, was cheering news, and
the work of enrolling them as mem
bers of the party should be pushed Wig
orously.
The calling of two conventions was
a wise move, since it will materially
shorten the real campaign, and hence
make briefer the period of political
agitation.
We say to the Democrats of Utah, Be
of good cheer. The mighty spirit of
Democracy is neither dead nor asleep.
The grand principles for which that
party stands can never die while free
government survives among men.
Though our Republican friends are
confident and arrogantly boastful, both
in state and nation, remember that
pride goeth before a fall, and haugh
ty spirit before destruction. There is
an old saying to the effect-"Get thy
spindle and thy distaff ready, and God
will send the flax" Let only the
Democrats throughout the state be
diligent and earnest and we shall not
be lacking an opportunity to down our
opponents.

AN ABSURD PROJECT.

There lived a man once who pro-
posed to adapt Shakespeare" He had
gathered the idea from somewhere that
the writings of the bard Of Avon were
a little too complex for the brain of the
average mortal and he also conceived
the thought that he would be doing
the country a service by simplifying
the immortal works of the great poet.
His scheme, however, met with such a
cool reception that he was forced to
abandon it after repeated rebuffs. In
deed, one great thinker told the pre-
sumptuous mortal that man who
would attempt to adapt Shakespeare"
would be found sometime in the vain
endeavor to paint the lily or gid re-
fined gold.
The failure of the aspirant alluded
to, however, does not have appeared
to have come within the knowledge of
w. T. Stead, for that gentleman now
has a scheme on hand whereby he
proposes to concentrate or condense
the works of the standard novelists.
His idea is based on the theory that in
this great workaday world there are
many people who would like to read
such authors as Scott, Dickens, Victor
Hugo and others, but have not time to
read the whole of them. Mr.. Stead has
figured it out to his own satisfaction
that he can tell the story of 'TIvanhoe''
in 10000 words, and a similar boiling
down of other great authors is threat
ened. Mr.. Stead has been severely
rasped by the eastern press for what
the writers are free to call his pre-
sumption, but in no paper yet to hand
are the facts more clearly stated than
in the Pittsburg Post, which says and
truly, that it is, of course possible
to boil down Ivanhoe' into 81, 900 words.
and the events which make the story
of David Copperfield could be told in
$4,000. Scott, Dickens, Thackeray, Vic
tor Hugo and Balzac can all be treated
that way with the inevitable result
that the product will not be Scott,
Dickens, Thackeray, Victor Hugo or
Balzac 1t will be w. T. Stead, or any
other condenser, with thin slices of
the great authors sandwiched in.
Take, for instance, Victor Hugo's Les
Miserables.' If anyone desires to com
prehend the real massive nature of that
work, he must study all the digressions
from the mere story, such as the mag
nificent essay upon Waterloo, or that
prolonged chapter on the sewers of
Paris, in which that writer showed
himself forty years ago to be in adj
vance even of the social science of this
day. The mere story of Jean Vatican
could be told IN a quarter of column
of this paper; but to understand Vic
tor Hugo he must study the whole
mass of social, religious and historical
discussions. So with the other authors.
Imagine anyone blue-penciling the
careful details of Dickens great and
tragic portrayal of the French revolu-
ton in the Tale of Two Cities" and
presenting it to the hurried public as
an aid to the general reading of Dick
ems. 1t is interesting to note that Mr..
Stead does not propose to condense
George Meredith or any of that cotem-
porary school. There seems to be an
evident recognition that if such works
were boiled down to the meat, the re-
mainder would be nothing. Yet we

THE TABERNACLE CHOIR.

The Tabernacle choir may well nigh
be regarded as an institution belonging
to the state: and one that all Utah has a
pride in. The credit it has brought to
the state by its work both at home and
in other states during it's trip east to
the Chicago Columbian Exhibition,
has endeared the organization to all
the people.
1t contemplates a visit to the neigh
boring state of California during the
present month, to give a series of con-
certs there that will bring more credit
and more honor to Utah. The man
ayers of the enterprise are seeking to
make the trip self-supporting, and to
do this have given a series of concerts
at the tabernacle, and Monday evening
at o'clock will give another at
the same place. Everybody that can
go should do so and take his conference
visitors with him, that they may en-
joy musical feast and at the same
time give encouragement to an organ
ization of which all Utah without re-
gard to party or sect, can feel proud.
The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1896-04-05

mindful of their interests whether or
not he was of the interests of the
whole people of the state. He was the
consistent Republican. Mr.. Cannon, in
his letter to the Republicans of Utah,
speaks of himself and the four sena-
tors who voted against the Dingley
bill as 'the five so-called secession
senator's" Which simply means that
on this question of silver they had to
leave their party to vote for it.
