THE New York Press, the recognized
Republican organ of New York, has
produced the figures to show that the
Democrats In the Senate are In favor OF
free coinage by a majority Of two to
one, while the Republicans are opposed
to silver by about the same majority.
The full force OF this comparison can
not be appreciated without consider
alton OF the fact that every Senator
who is not from a silver producing
State is Republican, and that, with
one exception, every Republican sena-
tor who Is not from the far West is OBJ
posed to free coinage. The discussion
Of the last few days in the upper

erless. They cannot divest themselves
OF their bosses and still remain factors
in the race.
Because he is the most suspicious OF
them all and best fitted to conduct his
own campaign, Reed is the least likely
TO suffer from disloyalty. Allison and
Morton are helpless without active and
loyal managers, and Mckinley must
nrst demonstrate his ability that he
can control the personnel Of the Ohio
delegation before he can be considered
in the fight.
Whose memoirs will recite the
treacheries Of Republican leaders at
the convention Of 1895? Reed and Nc
Kinley are not too old to be factors in
the contest of 1900. Discretion might
keep them quiet even under great
provocation to tell all the truth. But
what would compel the silence OF ALI

REPUBLICANS from the West and
South can no longer claim TO hold the
reins that guide and check their party.
They are in the hands Of the Eastern
members. The domination Of the East
In Congress is apparent TO everybody.
The Speaker of the House is from
Maine and the chairman of the WAYS
and Means committee is from the same
State. New York has 10 chairman
ships OF committees In the House; Penn
syivania 9, and Massachusetts, 6. and
the Eastern section Is as unduly well
provided for in the Senate. The DOM
nation Of the East in Congress is COM
plete.
IL Is idle for the members from the
West to say: "We, members west Of
the Mississippi river and from the
South, can dictate terms to our party.
and we have the strength to enforce
our measures 1t is not SO. The power
OF the Republican party is in the East
and the West may look for no fayors
from the Republican party except what
may come by permission OF the MEM
bers in the East.

LIN the Open Markets.

a healthy sentiment.

bring out the gold from the Golfers of

the President will no doubt consider
himself compelled to call again upon a
syndicate, either that headed BY Mr..
Morgan or some other with equal
power to obtain gold.
Congress could have rendered GER
tain the success of the popular loan by
quickly passing the Smith bill. which
provides that national banks shall keep
their reserves in greenbacks or treas

had gold to pay out. The bonds might
indeed have been made altogether un-
necessary If the bill had become a law.
MIR. Carlisle's proposal is practically
an appeal to the people. All the bro
kers have declared that the gold to buy
100000, 900 Of bonds cannot be obtain
ed by general investors; that only an
exceptionally powerful syndicate, with
almost unlimited credit and extensive
connections in the worlds financial
centers, can supply gold for bonds to
such an amount. The bankers outside
OF New York and the other citizens
can refute the claim if they choose |
to show that the country is greater,
richer and more patriotic than Nor

Inauguration Day In Utah.

Inauguration Day was celebrated last
Monday in Salt Lake City, as no other
day was ever celebrated in the history
OF Utah. The city was filed to over
flowing and it was well nigh impossible
to move through the public thorough
fares.
The decorations in the tabernacle
where the ceremonies were celebrated
were lavish in beauty and magnifi-
cence. There was never anything like
it before. The American flag display
ed in the dome was the largest flag
ever made. All the ceremonies were
celebrated in accordance with we'll
matured and perfected plans, and were
a success to the letter. Salt Lake CITY
may well be proud of this day: Utah
may record it as the brightest, grand
est day Of her history.

Fear of Thunder.

At this particular season of the year
many persons suffer themselves to be-
come very much worked up over cleo
trical storms. They are far less danger
GUS than many persons imagine. Prof.
e. w. Box, who is considered the very
best authority, says: "That severe
lightning storm is terrifying admits of
no question, and will sometimes bring
to the heart of the strongest
man. But the real danger is slight. The
chance of lightning striking house, for
example, is not one in million. Par
ticularly is this true in cities, strung as
most of them are with electric wires,
The greater danger from electric storms
is in the country and even there the dam
ger may be lessened if the simplest and
most common-sense precautions are ex-
ercised. The surest electrical conductor
is a draught, and if, when thunderstorm
approaches, it is seen that all windows
are kept closed, the danger is at once re-
duced to a minimum. Ii a woman is
Caught out in a thunder storm the
safest shelter is in house; the most
dangerous tree, particularly an oak
tree. 1t is peculiar, but nevertheless a
proven fact, that the oak is the most sus-
ceptible of all trees to current of cleo
tricity. Oyer fifty per cent of the trees
struck by lightning storms during one
summer, the government statistician
tells us, were oaks, while the beech was
the least harmed. Therefore, the W0rsl
possible place of shelter in an electrical
storm is under an oak tree, while by all
odds, the safest place is In a house and

from an electrical stolm) is, in truth no
from the lightning nor the thunder, bu
