VOTE FOR SILVER MEN.

The silver question is important in
the municipal campaign from the sim
pie fact that this city is known
throughout the country as q strong
hold of the silver sentiment Where
ever Utah politics is known it is known
thar silver is the touchstone, that by
1T the people have tested all candidates.
The whole country knows that Utah
gave Mr. Bryan. the Democratic can
diddte for president and champion of
the free silver cause, a majority OF
over 10000: and so Utah becomes a
more or less important indicator as to
whether the sentiment for free silver IS
az nigh or low pressure. Since year
ago there has been no means by which
the silver sentiment of the country
could be tested, for there have been
no elections. 1t has been claimed by
those who were victorious last Novern-
Der that the silver issue is dead and
they hope to prove their assertions by
pointing to the results of the elections
this fall
If they can point TO the fact that
in the vest, the home of the silver
sentiment, the question was ignored.
or where the party that declared for it
was defeated, they VIII have strong
evidence with which to support their
claim They will argue that if the
people of the west. the people Of Salt
Lake City. 10 be more specific, are in
favor of free silver, why did they net
so declare in their municipal election
as they nave in all their elections in
the past? They viii point to the fact
that in the municipal election OF 1895
the people of this city declared for it
and they will say that neglect to do so
now is inexplicaible, except on the
ground that there has been a SUBJ
sidence of the silver sentiment.
For <he reasons above set forth, and
for others, it is necessary that the
people of this city vote for the candd-
dates who stand on the only platform
that declares for free silver. 1t would
have been an easy matter for all the
parties having tickets in the field to
have made declarations in favor of it,
and then no one could have questioned
how the people of this city stood. But
all the parties have not done this, and
the Republican party did not do it
because the Mckinley administration
is opposed to free silver. Let no one
be deceived on this point; but let the
people Of this city stiH be true to sill
yer and so declare themselves.
There is not much news from the
scene Of the recent Indian troubles in
Colorado. 1t was a most regrettable
affair and the killing seems to have
been preclpleated By a squaw firing off
a pistol while the game warden and
his party were having rather ami
mated discussion With the Indians. It
is almost marvel that the Indians,
who appear to have greatly outnum-
bered the Writes, did net annlhilate
them then and there. Indications now
are that there will be no serious
trouble result from the occurrence.
Even we're the Indians Inclined TO hos
tilities the season is so far advarced
that they could not last very long.
TIE whole matter should be investi-
gated and the right of the Indians to
hunt clearly defined.

serVation. After many trials Mr.. Mann
was forced to conclude that the wide
divergence often noted could not be
explained by errors of observation, and
that the companion suffered perturba-
ton from the pull of a second body re-
Volving about Sirius and a giant sat-
elite yet unseen. He concludes that
the companion has a period of 50.125
years, and that it passed it's principal
or Sirius in 1S94-95, and that the dis
lance of the star from the center, is 4
seconds and 20 hundredths.
OF disturbing body or satellite Mr..
Mann writes: "a third member of the
system seems to be indicated. having
a period of some twenty years, motion
retrograde, the plane of whose orbit
cuts that Of the one we are considering
at about 80 degrees, where the dis
turber appears to have passed in 1896
at distance from Sirius of four or
five seconds. The disturbances noted
may also be complicated by a massive
satellite of the companion moving in an
orbit commensurate with this grandiose
system" The evidence of perturbation
is sufficient to warrant these conclus-
sicns. 1t is possible that the third
member of the system may yet be
sighted, or so carefully traced by the
mathematicians as to be precisely To-
Gated. Mr.. Mann's work is of great
interest.

TWO HOT CONTESTS.
ElI<s Drill for Prizes, and Visiting
Bands Try Their Skill.

Toledo and Louisville marched and coun-
termarched yesterday afternoon for the big
prize for the best drilled Elks club. The day
was not all that could be desired for a hot
contest in drilling but the thirty five or so
men in each company were determined to do
the other company, and so stuck Il out in
spite Of the boiling sun and swelterlng heat.
However, with the single exception of ;he
heat, the day and place was excellent. A
rather cool breeze blew from the lake at Har-
riet, and the plaza was as perfect a drill
ground as could be found. Fully 1000 people
saw the drill
At the close, the judges, Lieut.. Leonhauser,
u. S. A; Col. Shuey and A. g. Clausen
withdrew to compare notes and their de-
cision will be announced this morning. Who
wins is a matter of much speculation,
as each club was excellent in lis style.

visiting bands contested for the hand prizes.

Committee Agrees to II Favorable
Report on His Nomination.
WASHINGTON, July S.-The Good
now case has at last been settled in
committee, the presidents appointee
winning out
Senator Nelson, for a ma jOrity OF the
committee, this afternoon submitted a
favorable report for confirmation. The
case will now go to the full senate.
The report of Mr.. Nelson will go over
for a day in accordance with the rules
OF the senate. There was only one
vote against Goodnow in the commit
tee, and this vote came from a South
err Democratic senator. He is oppose
to confirmation, but it is net likely that
he will carry the fight into the senate.
Another Southern Democratic senator
refused to vote one way or the other,
and Senator Frye, of Maine, chairman
Of the committee, would not commit
himself on the question, so he did not
vote.
1t was stated in committee this
morning that, inasmuch as both Min
neSota senators favored GoOdnoW, it
was but just that a report favorable
to his confirmation should be made.
Whether or net Senator Frye will sub
nit the evidence that has been before
the committee cannot be learned. He
said this afternoon:
What we did relative to Mr.. Good
now's confirmation. is executive bust
ness, and cannot be made public. We
have had a long siege over this matter,
and both sides have been given a full
hearing. No, Senator Washburn was
not before us this morning. He left
word yesterday that he was going to
New York last evening, and 1 presume
he has gone"
1t was learned this afternoon that
the matter will come up in executive
session tomorrow. The case is pro-
crossing very slowly, but Goodnow is
staying right by the fight Washburn,
MCMILLAN and Marchant have left

evidence of what had bean agreed to

For four long hours yesterday after
noon, the grand lodge wrestled with
the Golden Gate question, but the out
come was a justification of the action
of the grand exalted ruler in his ruling
recognizing the legality of Frisco
Lodge No. 3, and ostrasicing Golden
Gate lodge. After the speech of j. Is.
Cotton, of Duluth, questioning the le-
gality of the action of the exalted
ruler from a constitutional point OF
view, sentiment was aroused IN the
interest Of the lodge which was Tight
ing the order of the high executive.
| When the session yesterday was called
to order, Grand Elevated Ruler Det-
weller took the floor and asked that
representatives of No. 6 be heard and
that they present their grievances.
They did so. G. E. r. Detweiler then
made an address, explaining the reason
for his action, and arguing at length
in support of his claims. After the
question had been discussed in all It's
phases a vote was taken in winch the
exalted ruler was almost unanimously
sustained. After the address Whlch he
made, he was approached by those Who
had opposed him on hearSay evidence
and congratulated upon his convincing
address and the wisdom of his actlon'
at the same time excuses being mace
in some cases for having opposed MIN
upon uncertain testimony.
The Allon o. Myers case was next
considered, resulting in the expulsion
of Myers from the order. His case Is
a historic one and has been dragging
through the several grand lodge SEES
sions for years past. The grand loage
listened carefully to the evidence anu
by an overwhelming vote decided that
he was not fitted for membership.

Not only is such a food unknown in July,
but the stage is higher than has ever been

was within few inches of the largest Hood

inches short of the April floods, Whhe at
about the same time the marks at the sort
