BY a number of persons whose names
appear on the certificates Of nomina-
ton of the non-partisan ticket, cir
Guitar letter has been received which
in and of itself is highly favored
sample of impertinence; but which, In
the light OF some circumstances con-
nected with IT, is little short of scan
dalous. 1t bears the signature type
written) of d. c. Dunbar, an individual
who was elected to the office of county
clerk OF Salt Lake county last fall on
the pledge that the work Of public OFF,
GERS should be done by them and not
by deputies. Voters will remember
how this slogan was shouted by the
party that elected the incumbent here
referred to; and thousands OF them will
recall how that he has persistently
violated this party pledge. He spent
a great part of last winter in conduct
ing a campaign, In a foolish and bonn
bastic way, which terminated in Il de-
feat so pronounced as to shatter, for
all time apparently, the hopes his side
of 1t embodied; and he has no sooner
got his official desk in order than he
again leaves 1t to plunge into another
campaign. II he does not again hoo
doc the cause he has espoused poetic
justice viii not prevail this time.
But to his circular letter: 1t claims
that its author has discovered that the
non-partlsan movement is but a
scheme to divide the Democratic
and solldify the Republican forces.
Wonderful persplcacltyl 1t says that
every Democratic vote cast for the
non partisan ticket is contribution
to Republican victory, and with the
tone of an oracle it declares that 1.-THE
non-partisan movement cannot sue
coed" 1t ends with the insinuation
that Democrats who endorse that
movement are helping to elect a gold
bug Republican ticket.
The News" has only to add that this
circular letter is one of the strongest
arguments yet advanced during the
campaign why the cause of partisan
Ism. in which It is advanced, should
not succeed.

sCHooLBoY TACTICS.

The tactics that are being resorted
to by the politicians and organ Of one
of the parties resemble the horse-play
of school boys rather than ordinary
and legitimate campaign methods In
the organ referred to an attack ia made
upon the genuineness and legality Of
the signatures to the certificates of
nomination OF the non-partisan can
dldates. and the legality with which
those signatures We're acknowledged by
notary Ia denied Respecting these
points lot Of silly questions are asked
and the law In relation to them. is mis-
represented.
In close connection with the forego-
ing matter the political organ referred
to prints In extenso, under a scare"
head, document which is given out
as protest against the legality of the
non-partisan nominations, with the
unqualified declaration that It would
be filed today. The authorship of the
document is credited to "well-known
attorney" but he seems TO be so well
satisfied with the fame he has already
achieved that he does not wish 10 add
to it by letting the public know him
as the jurist who prepared this protest.
His desire to remain unknown in con-
nectlon with this piece of his work
is explained by a glance at It. One of
the grounds Of protest as set forth in
1t is as follows:
THAT many, If not all Of the sign
ers Of said pretended certificate of
nominations as hereinbefore mem
toned, are members of the Democratic
party and of ,lhe Republican party.
which said parties have made nominal
tions for the offices as aforesaid and
each and all of them. and they are
therefore not proper sgners OF the GER
tificate objected to-"
This means that the law is to be in
voked, ard II possible perverted, to
prevent members of a political party
from supporting any but their party
ticket! Was such n proposition ever
before made under the Stars and
Stripes? What about Church DOM
nation. etc. ?" BY and bye the voters
of this state win learn that, when 1t
comes to political tyranny, church
men, even II half that is said of them
We're true, are not in it with the poll
tIcians, But enough has here been
said Of such tomfoolery.

1t seems to you that that
tickling, hacking cough is all
in the throat. But your doc
tor will tell you that this SEN
sation is often dcceiving. The
cough is often the signal of
deeper trouble in the bron-
chial tubes or in the lung
tissue itself. These inHamed
membranes can only be
healed by treating the system.
For all lung troubles, esPe-
cially in the earlier stages, no

Quotations are made from rabld
anti-Mormon writer's of many years
ago, that have little or no bearing up
on conditions existing now. Dialogues
on Mormonism, concocted by the editor,
and utterly silly in literary or intel
lectual point Of view. besides being
mendacious, occupy considerable space.
The contents of the number as n whole
indicate the editor to he a malicious
and slanderous crank, with mind ILL

But his emanations are well calculated
to stir up violent opposition to the

Any attempt at either satisfying or

of explanation or evidence, would be
utterly hopeless; but the News" will
here take occasion TO say that It Is a
far greater trial to the Mormon Elders
to travel without purse or scrip than
It is to the people among whom they
labor to have them do so. They do
not do It for a livelihood, because
nearly every one of them leaves a

press themselves as amply repaid for
so doing. Lastly. the preaching Of the

taken with a very severe cold that
caused him to be in a most miserable
condition. 1t was undoubtedly a bad
case of In grippe and recognizing 1t as
dangerous he took immediate steps to
bring about n speedy cure. From
the advertisement of Chamberlain's
Cough Remedy and the many good
recommendations included therein, we
concluded to make a first trial of the
medicine. To say that 1t was satisfac-
tory in its results, is putting 1t very
mildly, indeed. 1t acted like magic and
the result was a speedy and perma-
nent cure. We have no hesltancy in

member Of the Mazama Society, which
made the ascent of Mount Tacoma

PENSION CLAIMS.
RULES GOVERNING ADJUDICA.
TION REVISED.
Sweeping Notifications Made in
the Present Practices by the
Interior Department.

WASHINGTON, July pa thor
ough revision of the rules governing the
adjudication of pension claims under
the second section of the Act of June
u, 1890, has been made by Assistant
Secretary of the Interior Webster Da
Wis, and sweeping notifications in the
present practices are the result. The
new code, it is said, will furnish a
safe, speedy and uniform system of
adjusting this large class of cases.
Assistant Secretary Davis holds that
the very nature of the pension cases
forbids the application of strictness and
technically of court proceedings, and
that it was not Congress- intention to
hedge the administration of these laws
with difficulties and pitfalls of any sys-
tenn of special pleading, whose techni-
calities and refinements may tend to
a practical defeat of the Governments
benevolent purposes.
The notifications are made in six
rules, and former rules and decisions in
conflict with them are set aside. The
most important change is made in the
following rule:
"1.-Eyery application for pension
under the second section of the Act
of June 81, 1890, should state that the
same is made under said Act, the dates
or enlistment and discharge the name
or nature Of the diseases, wounds or
injuries by which the claimant is dis
abled, and that they are not due to
vicious habits; provided, however, that
the omission of any of these aver
ments shall not invalidate the applica-
ton (the intent to claim pension being
manifest and the declaration being exc
cuted in accordance with the law). Such
application shall be subject to amend
ment by means of a supplemental affi-
davit in the particulars wherein it is
Detective
Rules 2, g. ) and 6, the last two re-
lating to vicious habits and increase
claims, are largely reiterations of pres
ent practices.
Rule makes essential notifications,
and is as follows:
"4.-Should a wound, injury or dis
ease not specified in the original or
amendatory declaration, but discovered
on medical examination, be shown to
have existed at the time when the or
igna1 declaration was filed, and it is
found not to be due to vicious habits,
it shall be taken into account, the
same as if formally specified in the
original application. Should it be
found, however, not to have existed at
the time when the original application
was filed, but from a subsequent date
prior to medical examination, the de-
gree of the disability of the applicant
being below the maximum rating, may
be increased accordingly from the date
when such wound or injury was in
CURED or disease contracted, provided
the degree of disability from all con-
tributory causes is thereby enhanced to
sufficient extent to justify a higher
rating. Should it be found impossible
to fix the exact date when such wound
or injury was received or disease con-
tracted, the higher rating shall COM
menee from the date of the certificate
of medical examination showing its ex-
istence."
