PYLE, OR A NEW ELECTION.

POLICY MAY INSPIRE The COM
MITTEE TO THROW OPEN THE
POLLS AGAIN
State Senator John Pyle and Thomas
N. Stayton, both of whom claim the
Democratic nomination for State Sena
tor, will appear before the Democratic
County Executive Committee at the
Young Mems Democratic Club this af-
ternoOn and state their contentious
and grievances.
Both men are determined and the
committee will be compelled to take
the bull by the horns and declare one
OF the men the nominee or order a
new election. All talk of a compro-
mise candidate appears to be foolish in
the eyes of the two candidates. Pyle
claims a majority of the committee
and there seems to be ground for his
claim, but policy may lead the COM
mittee to order a new election in the
hope that its outcome may satisfy the
partisans of both men.

Editor Herald: We hear a great deal
these days from our Republican frienJs

hlEh wages, but would respectfully ask
lions save the protected manufa cturer

celFes big wages he must necessariIv

OF the laborer and consumer. NOT the
manufacturer. We are continually he
ing told by the protectionist that Ene-
lish workmen are living on Starvation
wages, which is the result of the free
trade system prevailing in that country
but he usually omits referring to the low,
price of nearly every conmoditv IN
England, whereby a mans money will
go a great deal farther than If will in
America. 1t is natural for every man
who has anything to sell to want that
thing "protected;" the orange grower
wants high tariff on oranges. tn. NAV

majority OF American citizens who do
not raise oranges or cabbages? Is II
thus right to tax the many for the bene

pernicious than the doctrine that high

When the Press Is Truthful

Newspapers are sometimes deceived
about the character of some amuse-
ment institution that intends visiting
it's place, and are led to commend it to
their readers when the show is not
worthy. But they never say anything
erroneous of an entertainment when it
has been witnessed; then the newspaper
testimony may be depended on. With
this in mind, one who reads papers from
other places soon becomes convinced
that the Great Wallace Show. which will
exhibit in our city next week, is really
the greatest on earth" Our exchanges
where it has exhibited are unanimous
in declaring it first-class in every de-
tail Columns are devoted to it, and the
universal verdict is honestly adver-
tised and honorably conducted" 1t is
said to come up entirely to its adver-
tisements, which are considered as
pledges and are faithfully fulfilled
Everything possible will be done to
make the show both instructive and en-
tertaining.

AMERICAN GIRL,
The Jewel Consistency

Editor Herald: 1t is amusing to watch

Here is a choice selection from an ed
itorial in the Los Angeles CRepublicano
Record few days before the great
achievements of the Republicans at
Sacramento: IL the woman sufferers

suffering campaign, or keep up their
attack on the two old parties as Mrs.
Cougar is doing, the two old political
parties will let the women sufferers Sc
verely alone"
ares opposed to woman suffrage be-
cause they think that women have suf-
fered enough already.
How nauseating such an argument!
But mark the change in the flank move
ment Of the aforesaid Record:

Issue in Politics in This State; The First
Chapter in an Interesting and Instruc-
tive Symposium" IA very significant
feature of the campaign was the adop-

In response to this call the Record re-
ceived replies from eight stalwart ad-
vocates of woman; two flat-footed in
their opposition; one on the fence. and
the last. but not least, did not know
"where she was at"
One woman says: "All honor til the
Republicans at Sacramento because of
the suffrage plank in their platform"
I wonder II my sister is aware that

NEW YORK, Oct. 30.-The Union
Veterans Patriotic League closed its
campaign work tonight by meeting
at Carnegie hall. One of the features
of the meeting was a portrait of Gen
eral Grant furnished by his son. Colo
mel Fred D. Grant, and which was I'M
yelled at an interesting moment
General Horatio Porter presided at
the meeting. There was great cheering
as the veteran appeared on the plat
form. General Porter said:
AS these men went to the front in
1861 to save the nations life, they are
going to the polls next Tuesday to
help to save the nations honor. In
this crisis our opponents are disre-
garding al1Nlaw and trying to bring
about that cdndition of things which
is the absence Of all law and is known
only by that most abhorrent language
in the English tongue-red-h handed an
archy.'
General Porter then referred to Ma
jor Mckinley, whose name brought an
ovation.
"On the outside we see Bryan fight
ing vigorously with Sewall and Wat
son, neither of whom know what time
the engagement will be broken
General Porter then said the Bryan
ties had insulted the flag in Missouri,
Illinois and Chicago.
I'VE read in the papers today" said
he, that the Bryanites tore down the
flag in Chicago and trampled and spat
upon it. (Cries of "Shamel'')
The time has not yet come in this
great republic to substitute partisan
ship for patriotism, or dynamite for
law. We are sitting here tonight I'M
der the inspiration of U. S. Grant, our
great general"
There was great cheering at this,
and the flag which was in front of
General Grants picture was drawn
aside. The entire meeting cheered en-
Enthusiastically.
Speeches were also made by General
Daniel E. Sickles and o. O. Howard,
Hon. Carl Schurz, Mayor William M.
Strong, General McCock, Genera Nc
Arden of Massachusetts and General
Horatio King.

be better informed as to the actual
situation in these two states than L
am, but l am making the most con-

can be no doubt as to the accu-
racy of these estimates. l have re-

state, which convince me that there
can be no doubt as to Bryan's ma
Jority in New York. There will be
some unprecedented changes in Re-
publican strongholds up the state.
The Bryan and Sewall clubs. a
large proportion of which are COM
posed of former Republicans, are
doing marvellous work. They are
not content with working in their
own district, but they send their
speakers abroad, winning thou
sands of votes in other counties.

Judge Baskin referred to the address
of Senator Brown on the evering pre-
vious, which he designated as one
''replete with sophistries' Mr.. Brown
declared that the tariff was the first
issue and silver the secord. He alleged
that free trade was the cause of all
the ills the country was suffering
| from.
Now, as matter of fact, since the
war we have had a protective tariff.
The Mckinley tariff was the highest of
! all, and on that issue Mr.. Harrison
was rebuked by the voters of the ma
ton Then came the Wilson bill, which
was next in order of high duty; and
this was not a Democratic measure,
because Republican senate amended
it and destroyed the original intent
BY what show of reason can any man
say that tariff is the cause of this de-
preston? 1t is attributable alone to
the decentralization of silver in 1873
Judge Baskin then devoted a few
moments in explanation of the prin-
ciples of tariff and made the following
assertion: If the Republicans should
say to me, Give US a tariff law and we
viii give you silver, ! would say 80
ahead with your tariff bill and make
your duty as high as you please. Be
cause we can amend an unjust tariff
bill, and when silver is remonetized, no
power on earth can again strike it
down. (Applause.)
Mr.. Cleveland has differed from his
party and has been left desolate to
seek refuge in the arms of the Little
Napoleon. (Applause.)
At this point Judge King entered
and was given an ovation. When the
applause ceased, Judge Baskin urged
the election of Judge King and a Dem
ocratic legislature
organs fight viii be only just be-
gun at his election. All the power of
: the gold element will be brought to
break down his administration
Judge Baskin then introduced
HON. W. H. KING.
Judge King was greeted with one of
the greatest demonstrations which the
Salt Lake theatre ever witnessed.
Every hat was in the air and every
voice was raised. 1t was a long five
minutes ere he could speak
When quiet was restored, Judge King
said he brought good news from the
east that the superb and matchless
man was going from victory to victory
and that when the ballots We're
counted, William ]. Bryan will have
been elected president of the United
States (Applause.)
Wherever he goes, party lines are
vanished, and men. regardless of poll
tics. are rallyirg to the standard of
honest money. (Applause)
William j. Bryan is standing for the
money of the constitution; for the
money which will assist the masses.
l am willing to concede much to the
old Republican party and the grand
men who have made it up. but parties
ofttimes become corrupt and then it is
that new once spring up from the peo-
pie. Parties are not destined to be
despots but servants of the people.
Shall we not stand by these men who
are trying TO enhance the principles
of honesty?
In this great state of Utah, for 20
years we have sounded the alarm for
silver. That great man, Judge Good
win, has been fighting for it nobly and
