EXCLUDE SETTLED DISTRICTS.
England Would Consider New
Proposition as to Venezuela.

The London Times in an editorial on the
Venezuelan dispute this morning, says:
"There is sincere desire here to arrive
at a friendly agreement with Venezuela SO
as to remove all cause Of controversy with
the United States. Obviously England is
unable to make any direct proposals to
Venezuela till the obstacle of the Caracas
statute has been removed.
"But though no formal communications
have been exchanged. the attitude of our
government is perfectly well known, and a
basis for negotiations is provided In our
willingness to discard the Schomburgk line
as limit and only to exclude the settled
districts from consideration. II a proposal
to this effect were made by Venezuela or
the United States on its behalf. a settle
ment would Immediately come into view.
A door has been open ever since Lord Sails
bury's dispatch to Secretary Olney for a
counter proposition. The maintenance of
the Schomburgk line was adopted very
much as a rough-and-ready makeshift. 1t
Is no secret that Lord Salisbury is quite
prepared to consider favorably any fair
and frank suggestion"

Propositions Made by the Southern
Railway.

A Cincinnati dispatch sent last night
says: President Spencer and others of the
Southern railway, who have been here on a
mysterious mission, have dropped the cloak
of mystery, and now say that they did not
come to accomplish anything, but only to
consult with the trustees and citizens about
the future of the Cincinnati Southern road,
and to ask them to consider two PROPOSE
tons; one for a perpetual lease of the road
at reduced rental and the other for n
sale. He says the road needs an outlay of
S6,OO0,O00 in terminal facilities, equipment
and betterments, and that no operating
company can furnish this without a lease
at a reduced rental.

HOPEFUL SIGNS.

The claims made by the political
managers are so conflicting that the
reader becomes bewildered, finding him
self unable to form an intelligent con-
clusion as to what the result of the
campaign is to be. 1t is generally adj
mitted now that the contest is TO be
decided in a few states of the central
west, but as to the outcome in those
states claims differ so widely that ali
seems to be confusion. Not only do the
claimed figures differ, but rival man
ayers positively assert that the
labor vote, by which the election will
be decided. is on their side.
The Mckinley men rely upon the fact
that workingmen in very large num-
beers wear Mckinley buttons and at
tend Mckinley meetings; the Bryan
managers believe that multitudes of
those same men secretly intend to vote
for the Democratic candidate One side
places its dependence upon outward APP
pearances. the other upon alleged infor-

cratic fusion nominees, partly of inde-
pendent Democrats, partly of the Pop
ulist fusion nominees, and partly OF
silver Republicans. This was done or
the advice of the national committees
which then renewed their efforts to
bring about a union among all the sill
yer men. The Democrats were will
ing to enter into such union but the
PopuAists stood out. Secretary Walsh
of the Democratic national committee
who had gone to Idaho to arrange the
matter, then issued an address re-
citing the facts and declaring Demo
Gratis absolved from any obligation to
support the fusion with the Populists
The silver Republicans subsequently
took the names of all Populists off
their ticket, substituting men of theif
own, and this ticket is now receiving
the support of a large section of the
Idaho Democracy
The argument of the Democrats who
are supporting the ticket composed of
silver Republicans and Democrats, as
we'll as the Dubois legislative ticket,
is that it is their duty to comply with
the wish of their national committee.
They get just as much on the state
ticket as they would by supporting the
Populist fusion, and they would rather
assist in re-electing Dubois than to
lend their aid to the election of any
one of the Populist candidates. Mr..
Borah, the candidate for congress, is a
brilliant young man of marked ability
whom these Democrats prefer to the
Populist candidate for the place.
So it is very interesting campaign.
The Democrats can get neither the
senator nor the congressman, and it is
simply a question which of the other
candidates they shall support. Those
who support the silver Republicans will
be in harmony with the wishes of the
national organization; and those who
aid the Populists will support the ar
rangement made in the state conven-
ton.
Four years ago the Idaho Democrats
cheerfully complied with the request of
their national committee and unitedly
supported the Populist electors, there
by preventing Harrison from carrying
the state.
The chairman of the Democratic
state committee is out with state
ment respecting the present situation,
in which he announces the purpose of
the party organization to carry out the
with the Populists. AS
the committee has not at any time
in it's support of the fusion,
having been willing only to join with
the PoDulists in union with the silver
it remains to be seen
or not the address will check
the detection.

WEBER CANDIDATES.

Mr.. Bloor's Ogden letter published
this morning contains some important
interviews with Republican candidates
for the legislature These are signifi-
cant because they show a strong in
fusion of the sentiment which denies
that the financial issue is paramount
in this campaign. OF those inter-
viewed, only one squarely toed the line
on this important question. This was
Bishop Stevens. His running mates
for the legislature, however, showed
such pronounced disposition to WAIVER.
in some cases, and to openly sup
port the enemy, in others, that the
entire ticket is condemned. Weber
county cannot afford to send a dele
cation to the legislature dominated by
unsound sentiment on the silver ques-
ton.
1t will be observed that Judge Pat
ton confined himself closely to the
statement that ne would announce his
position after his election. 1t is before
election that voters desire to know the
attitude of a candidate. If he cannot
satisfy them they will not vote for
him. Judge Pattons plan of getting
elected first and defining his views
afterwards, should insure his defeat
Bishop Stewart said he was for sill
yer, but he was not the Bryan kind
of a silver man. Now, it happens that
there is only one kind of real silver
men-they are of the Bryan stripe
Bishop Stewart further endorses Sena-
tor Brown and states that he would
antagonize a proposition to instruct
the senator to oppose tariff legislation
until silver should be recognized. 1t
plainly will not do to send the bishop
to the legislature.
The Weber Republican delegation,
as shown by Mr.. Bloor's letter, is
clearly dominated by sentiments that
the people do not ENDORSE. it viii give
its support to Senator Brown if it is
elected, and it becomes necessary to
bury it under an avalanche of ballots.
