AN ABSURD PROPOSITION.

An assertion may and often does
acquire some degree of credence from
sheer repetition, Notwithstanding that
upon its face it is an absurdity and
cannot be supported by any sort of
logic.
The politicians of one particular
standard are trying to make the peo-
pie believe that the non partisan
movement is an assault on the in
terests OF silver. Federation but not
reason is the means they are adopt
ing to convince the people that this
ridiculous fallacy is really a truth.
The truth Is. the Mckinley Rcpub-
lican has just as good reason for as
sorting that -partisanism is an
tagonistio to the single gold standard,
MS the Bryan Democrat has for saying
silver. Neither would have any reason
whatever for his assertion.
This state has shown that it is over
whelmingly in favor OF free silver. 1t
is an issue upon which about eighty
per cent OF the voters of Utah saw eye
to eye last November. Now If this
silver sentiment can be invoked in n
political contest it is liable to carry the
day; hence the reason why the fallacy
was coined. If 1t can be made to APP
pear that william Mckinley is con-
cealed in the timber of the non-parti-
san ticket. it is hoped by the politicians
of a certain stripe that many voters
will flee from 1t.
But the subterfuge is too strained.
1t wont work. As well try to make the
people believe that the ghost of JEFF
ferson Davis, or the cause of slavery,
has something to do with the nom
partisan ticket, as that Major McKin-
ley, or any other antl-silver champion
or influence, has. What could John
Clark as Mayor of Salt Lake city do
for or against the cause of free silver,
were his inclination either way ever so
pronounced? Nothing at all. And Mr..
Dale, whom the Democrats have nom
mated, as well as any candidate whom
the Republicans may name. will be
equally powerless. Last year the Re
publicang OF this city split asunder,
and the biggest half of them voted for
Bryan. Then the silver issue divided
them. In the municipal campaign this
year, however, all the Republicans of
this city who do not support the nom
partisan movement are united solidly,
because there Is no silver issue to
divide them. This is their own adj
mission, and it supports entirely the
News" contention that the silver
question is not, never was, and cannot
be made Il dividing issue in any cleo
tion that looks only to the improve
ment of governmental methods in
cities.
This attempt to inject into the con-
troll of this city question that by nc
possibility can have anything to dc
with 1t or affect or be affected by it.
Is ruse of your lightweight poll
tician. and is unworthy of serious OF
extended discussion.

A PRACTICAL RELIGION.

In the carly days of the Mormon In
dian colony on the Malad river. in Box
elder county, the Indians, under the
advice and urging of the missionaries
in charge Of them, began digging
ditch by means of which to convey ir-
rigatinE water. Work with pick and
shovel was not congenial to the natur-
al disposition OF the aborignes, and
their conversion to the Gospel did not
at once overcome their preference for
ease and idleness. In fact much ex-
hortlng was required to keep them at
their task, and often much Of the time
of the Sabbath service was occupied
by the missionaries in impresslnE upon
the minds Of the Indians the necessity

ing work on the canal,
On one occasion the only white Elder
in the colony was compelled to be alb
sent over Sunday, and he spoke to an
Indian about conducting the meeting
and addressing the congregation. The

as we'll as he could. Curious to learn

HOT WEATHER DYSPEPSIA.
Thousands Suffer From 1t at This
Season of the Year.

Hot weather dyspepsia may be recog-
nized by the following symptoms: De-
preston of spirits, heaviness and pain
in the stomach after meals, loss of
flesh and appetite, no desire for food.
bad taste in the mouth, especially in
the morning, wind in stomach and
bowels, irritable disposition, nervous
weakness, WEAKNESS, costiveness,
headache, palpitation, heartburn. 1t is
mistake to treat such troubles with
''tonics," "blood purifiers" "cathar-
tics" pills" because the whole
trouble is in the stomach. 1t is indi-
gestion or dyspepsia and nothing else.
All these symptoms rapidly dsap-
pear when the stomach is relieved,
strengthened, and cleansed by Stuart's
Dyspepsia Tablets. They should be
taken after meals and a few carried
in the pocket to be used whenever
any pain or distress is felt in the
stomach. They are prepared only for
stomach troubles.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are en-
dorsed by such physicians as DR.. Har-
landson, DR.. Jennison, and DR.. Mayer.

IT Is Keening the Railroads Busy
Patching Up Recent Damage
by Floods.

The lines in the Western Passenger
association have as told in the Chicago
dispatches to the G. o b of yesterday,
at last granted the reduced rate plan
asked for by the wholesale merchants
in and about Chicago, and although the
general scheme as promulgated through
the medium of the w. p. a. correspon-
dence to st. Paul yesterday, is bit
left-handed, the business men have got
what they Wanted, and asked for, VIZ;
reduced rates for the customers for
stated period. In the spring and fall.
Chairman Caldwell's circular S51 con-
tains. in mucb detail, the features OF
the plan which proposes to grant these
rates oStensibly- for meetings to be
held at Chicago each fall-the exact
dates to be fixed later-of the National
Association of Merchants andTraVelers.
The territory includes Minnesota, Iowa,
Wisconsin, the northern Peninsula or
Michigan, and such parts of Illinois
and Missouri as are within the juris-
diction of the w. p. A.
These tickets are to be issued on the
certificate plan fare and one-third for
the round trip, and the conditions are
that the reduced rates are only appli-
cable to those who hold membership
tickets. 1t is further provided that
there must be a minimum attendance
at such meetings of 100. The Mer-
chants and Travellers association is
asked to protect the roads from the
illegal transfer of such tickets. and
it is understood that the lines will not
advertise this plan.
Now while this action applies mainly
to Chicago and is the result of some
very energetic work on the part of the
Windy City wholesalers, it is provided
that such meetings may be held at
other points within the above named
territory, so that when the commercial
centers west of Chicago reach the point
where they can consistently take the
stand taken by the Chicagoans, such
rates will easily be made to apply here
or in Minneapolis.
AT the present time, and for many
reasons it is very improbable that such
a plan as the Chicago men have for
a long time been insisting upon and
have finally secured, will be adopted
for the benefit of Twin City merchants
and their customers.

OMAHA MAKES ANSWER.
To the Complaint of the Mankato
Quarrymen.

The formal answer to the complaint
recently made to the railroad and ware
house commission by the Mankato firm
of Jordan & Hayes, against the Chicago
& Northwestern and Chicago, st. Paul,
Minneapolis & Omaha roads, was filed
yesterday with the commission.
1t sets forth at the outset, that the
defendants have neither knowledge or
information sufficient to form a belief
as to whether or not the compliments,
who charge the roads with levying ex-
cessive switching fees, are copartners
as alleged in the complaint. Further,
they reply that they did charge SIS for
switching cars from the Minneapolis &
ST. Louis track to their own, I'D to
wi hin short time before he complaint
was filed, but that then they did re-
duce the charge from S. to SO, which
latter figure they assert is below a
reasonable rate.
The S. rate, they declare, is a fair and
reasonable rate, and they therefore
pray that the complaint be dismissed.
The Mankato men ask for reduction
from S. to 81. A hearing will be call
ed for some time this month at Man
kato.

PATCHING Up WASHOUTs.
That Is the Chief Occupation of the
Railroads.

Although crews of men are at work
repairing the damage done the railroad
tracks by the washouts, a number Of
the incoming trains pulled into the
union depot yesterday slightly behind
schedule time. The Great Northern
found considerable trouble operating
the trains on the Preston branch owing
to the high stage of water. On the
other branches the trains are running
slowly owing to the soft condition of
the land about the tracks. The morn
ing train on the jamestown branch of
the Northern Pacific was seven hours
late yesterday, and the work of repair
ing the breaks is going on slowly. The
Iowa and Minnesota division of the
Milwaukee is still tied up, owing to
the bad damage done. and traffic is
being handled around the points where
washouts occurred. The Omaha tracks
are practically in shape again, although
the trains from LIE Sueur were late in
one instance some five hours.
The Minneapolis & st. Louis people
are forced to use the Omaha tracks be-
tween Kasota and Merriam Junction
their own tracks being washed away
in several places.
