mounted men, heavily armed, who held

then rode off in the direction of Helper.
The men cut the telegraph wires to pre-
vent a call for assistance. Within half

bers.

Of 81 900 for the capture Of the robbers
and $1,000 for the return of the money.
The two robbers were e at 3
o'clock this afternoon in Emery coun-
ty. going in the direction Of San Rafael
mountains. Posses have started from
Green River and four other points.
At midnight the robbers had not been
caught, and no one remained sanguine
OF the officers success. When the two
men rode from Price it was in the direc-

ting of the military commission has
been continuous since yesterday at the
Yildiz Kiosk. 1t is reported that Edhem
Pasha has asked for 40, 900 reinforce

lonica to hasten the dispatch of reserves
to the frontier. The mobilization Of 40
additional batallions has been decided

London, April Accommodating upon

Athens. April 21.-(6 p. m.)-Prince
Constantine, the crown prince and COM
mander-in-chief Of the Greek army, has
just left here for the battlefield. The
Turks today tried to capture the post
Of Prophet Eli, on the road to Tyrnavo
but were repulsed. The last series of the
Greek reserves has now been called out
and fresh troops have been sent to the
frontier. The bombardment OF Prevesa,
at the entrance of the Gulf Of Aria, has
been very heavy since early this morn
ing. The Turkish garrison there has
been completely isolated by the advance
Of Greek troops. The report that the
Greek fleet bombarded Platomona, on
the west shore Of the Gulf OF Salonica,
is confirmed. The Greek fleet also bonn
barded the town Of Lepthokary, adjoin-
ing Platomona. The powder magazine
O. the Turks at Platomona was exploded
by a Greek shell, causing much damage
and loss Of life to the enemy.

A CLEAN CAMPAIGN.

It is proper that the voters of this
city should understand, early and thor
oughly. that the non-partlsan commit
tee intends to have a strictly clean
campaign. 1t will not tolerate, where
1t has control, any abuse Of opposing
candidates nor any language nor
methods that are not elevated and dig
nifed. No candidate viii be either
asked or allowed TO pay towards the
expenses OF the campaign any fixed
sum in the nature OF an assessment.
What funds are needed will be raised
in u manner that will leave candidates
free from all obligation on this score,
and relieve them OF all suspicion of
any design to reimburse themselves
out of the public funds by any method
or under any pretense.
Whatever measures may be taken to
secure the election OF the non-parti-
san ticket viii be absolutely open,
above board, and free from faint. The
null light OF open day win be thrown
upon them. There will be no secret
deals, contracts nor combinations to
place candidates, II successful, under
the slightest pressure to use their Off
ccs for the discharging Of any obliga-
tons other than those due to the
whole people.
Another thing the people of this city
ought to understand: Every name on
the non-partlsau ticket was thorough
ly and conscientlously considered be-
fore it was placed there. 1t was asked:
Is he fitted for the place? Can he be
depended upon to discharge its duties
honestly and faithfully? Is there any
possible valid objection to him as a
candidate? No nominating convention
that could be created In this city by the
usual methods could possibly give such
thorough. careful and dlslnterested
consideration to each name discussed
for a place on the ticket. While mems
private lives and affairs have not been
prled into, theiT fitness for office has
been most thoroughly debated. pro and
con, before they were agreed to by the
committee. Yet there has remained,
as Is inevitable, the possibility OF max

committee shall be necessary rs to

is ANDREn DEApq

The telegraphed expressions of
Lieut.. Peary, to be found in another
column OF this paper, are interesting
reading, as nearly all expressions
from such source are. This officer is
a man OF great determination, hordl-
hood and perseverance. one who may
now with propricty be rated among
the Arctic explorers OF the age. While
II remains Il fact that his expeditions
so far have been simply expeditions,
that the contributions thereby to the
fund of scientific information have not
been great and the added light shed
upon the darkened field has not to a
great extent increased its brilliancy,
IT still remains true that he has made
a good many such trips and thereby
become toughened to the business
while acquiring the necessary expert
ence. He Ia also II man Of education
and attainments, a close observer of
events and circumstances. and knows
considerably of the subject of which
he speaks.
Peary's opinion IS that Andree has
persisted without getting as near TO
the Pole as hansen did. This opinion
is but an opinion and is largely shared
by the civilized world, but it amounts
in either case and all cases to IA con-
lecture growing out of the absence of
information from the aeronautic ex-
plorer. 1t is not case of no news be-
ing good news, but the reverse. Lieut..
Peary thinks that Andree should have
reappeared before this and the fact
that he has not goes TO show that he
never will appear. Perhaps this is the
sorrowful truth, yet until hope is de-
stroyed It will be chung to. The Ameri-
can has himself never been within
hailing distance of the pole and is
therefore not in position to speak with
certainty regarding the conditions
prevailing there. II there is n circum-
polar wave of air,as there is believed to
be of water,whose swing is ceaselessly
around the northern end of the earth's
axis. and the Norwegian and his COM
pauions have drlfted into this, then
indeed are they lost to the haunts of
man forever. Happily, this, like all
things else that are written or spoken
on the subject Is the merest conjecture
and the intrepid trio may be safe and
sound in some place remote from COM
municntion. It is the part of humanity
to hope so at least.
Lieut.. Peary has a plan of his own
for reaching the pole and this, like
many other things in life,is heralded as
the only true and genuine. He has
fund of $3.50, 900 with which he will thor
oughly and systematically equip an ex-
petition for the long term Of five years.
With so much means and time at his
disposal he promises to reach the OBJ
jective point or join the silent caravan
in which Franklin, De Long and so
many others have enrolled themselves;
that Is, he will not return at all. His
plans seem feasible enough, but so have
they all seemed-on paper. The frozen
zone is not only deadly but an unfail-
ing demolisher of theories and meta
| phorically speaking 1t laughs to scorn
the power of man."Up to date the North
Pole remains the great Moloch of the
hidden zone; life, treasure. effort and
time, all without stint have been offered
up as sacrifices to the Unsuitable mon
ster, and assuredly the end is not yet.

THREATS AND THINGS.

It is darlSly limited that in the event
Of the United States causing the evac-
uation of Cuba by the Spanish the eff
fete despotism Of Austria will take a
hand in the game. The queen regent
of Spain is the offspring Of the Haps-
burgs and of course this is the milk
that is I'm the cocoanut. If such
thing should ever occur. which in the
light of reason must be extremely
doubtful. It would only be n case of
the blind leading the blind. Adding
weakness to weakness does not make
strength by any means, and Austria
is not much stronger than Spain. not
so strong on the seas. The little cor
poral," otherwise the great Napoleon,
in the early part OF this century
knocked the pins from under the vain
glorious and unsubstantial Austrian
empire and made a second-class nation
OF it in short order; except in point of
population II does not properly at the
present time figure ahead of the third
class, and in the matter of fighting
ability is not much, If any, ahead of
Italy.
