Russell Sage, famous throughout the
land for his wealth and parsimony, has
something to say about the good times
that were to come with McKinley's
election. though he does not mention
the presidents name. He says: Il ex-
pect and believe there is a better time
coming, but it viii come slowly. Unless
business improves considerably 1 shall
certainly favor the reduction of the
Western Union dividend to a, per cent
basis. am not N favor of paying out
money for dividends that are not
earned. It is better to accept condi-
tons as they are than to be bull-headed
against them. Conservative action now
will be greatly to the company's bene-
fit in the future"
He says truly when he says that
good times viii come slowly. far more
slowly, doubtless, than he anticipated
last summer when he was foretelling
the good times that were to come as
the result of a Republican triumph
But the old man is right in what he
says about being opposed to paying
dividends that are not earned. But TINS
hoping for good times is becoming
wearisome. In fact, hope deferred
maketh the heart sick"

THE JUBILEE. PROGRAMME.

The celebration of the 5Oth anniver-
sary of the arrival of the pioneers in
this valley is to extend over a period
Of five days. The programme for these
five DAYS has been arranged, though
oil the details have not been completed.
It is good so far as it goes, but it is
incomplete. The occasion is a great
one and at least a part of one dav of
the five should be devoted to the read
ing of historical papers upon the settle
Inent and early history of the state.
These papers should, where possible,
be prepared by those who were makers
of Utahs early history. They would
have a permanent value and should be
fled awav in the archives of a state
historical society. The programme as
now outlined contemplates nothing of
this kind Parades and performances
are a usual feature of such celebra-
lions. and without them they would be
somewhat duh. perhaps, still they are
but passing features such as are found
in all celebrations. As the result of
Utah's semi-centennial celebration
there should be something permanent,
something that in the future viii bear
witness to it and be of value. some
thing that will tell to the descendants
of those now living what the celebra-
ton was and what it commemorated.
Papers such as are here suggested
would do this. Those having the cele-
bration in charge should take the mat
ter up. The celebration should be made
something besides a spectacular affair,
something other than time of rejoic-
ing, great as the causes for rejoicing
are. After all it is a solemn occasion
and recalls memories and times that
call for deep and sober thought. A part
of one day should be given UP to this
phase of the occasion commemorated;
and this is why the preparation and
reading of some historical papers is
suggested

THE GOLD DEMOCRATS.

on the oath inst there is to be a
grand dinner at the Waldorf hotel,
New York, given by the Reform club
at which Mr.. Cleveland, Mr.. Carlisle
and Mr.. William L. Wilson Will be
among the guests-the guests. so to
speak. In connection with this grand
dinner there is to be held conference
of the gold standard Democrats of
New York City. This conference is to
be held in Chickering Hall and will last
I two days, the 23rd and the oath inst.
The Waldorf dinner will no doubt be
the crowning event of the conference.
At this dinner most likely Mr.. Cleve-
land will deliver an address on the gold
question and there is no one better
qualified than he to present the side Of
the gold Democrats. If he does speak
what he says will practically constitute
the financial plank of the gold Demo-
Gratis. Therefore, it viii be awaited
with interest.
The dispatch announcing this dinner
and conference states that the gold
Democrats are beginning to realize
that the whole free silver issue has got
own party. and they are getting ready
to organize for the battle; and that the
leaders Of the gold Democratic move
ment in New York and other cities
have been in correspondence for a
week with reference to the advisable
ity of having q demonstration there at
an early date, which shall show that
they are not dead yet and that they
are going to meet the issue which is
still being forced upon them. The ap-
preaching dinner of the Reform club
VIII give them an opportunity for this
demonstrs ton.
The whole free silver issue" may
have to be fought out again in the
Democratic party. but it is hardly
probable. It was fought out in the
Chicago convention last year, and the
opponents of free silver were licked
to a inish.' That an issue has been
fought out in one presidential conven-
ton does not necessarily mean that il
may not come up in the next conven-
ton; but it does mean this that where
it was fought out in convention but
was not triumphant in the election and
is destined to be the leading issue in
the next campaign, the section of the
party that was triumphant in conven-
ton is almost certain to be so again.
Not only this, but the silver sentiment
in those sections of the country whose
delegates controlled at Chicago last
year has not become any weaker or
less aggressive than it was. If it con-
tinues 10 dominate those sections.
which is altogether probable. will it
not dominate in the next Democratic
national convention?
The Democrats viii see to it that
none but good silver men are sent to
the next national convention. They
control the party machinery and viii
use it to further Democratic doctrines.
And do the gold Democrats propose to
get into the next Democratic national
convention and when they find they
cannot control it to secede and go off
and set up another ticket and work to
accomplish the defeat of the regular
Democratic candidate? That is what
they did last year, and they may be
depended upon to do it again. if they
cannot run things to suit themselves. !

THE REBEL YELL.


The Baltimore sun. always in touch
with the best southern sentiment, has
something to say regarding the partici-
patton of ex-confederates in the Grant
monument inaugural parade. 1t says it
is proper that they should be promi-
nent in manifesting their sympathy
with the demonstration and their re-
spect for the memory of the Union gem
eral; and that the determine ton of
General Dodge to accord them posi-
tons in line indicates that their mani
festations Of goodwill have been re-
ceived in a proper spirit. But it very
properly says that the occasion is not
one for 4gush, and that some Of the
suggestions made are matters for re-
gret; it might have said for chagrin.
Concerning the proposition to carry the
confederate flag below the stars and
stripes. in the procession, and to give
the rebel yell'' as the tomb is passed,
the Sun says:
Considered from any point OF view
both OF these suggestions are highly
Inappropriate and in bad taste, to say
the least If intended as dramatic
feature for the delectation-of the pop
ulace. it would be a degradation of an
imposing and serious tribute to the
level OF a tawdry show. If designed TO

that the most important result of a
tariff war between this country and
Canada would be to develop a senti-

do that we will annex ourselves to you

A Kick for a Watch.

chance. He found a watch in front OF the
Metropolitan Opera house, New York.
He chased wildly IN and down the
crowded thoroughfare asking every matt
nee girl in sight If she had lost anything.
Nobody had missed a watch. and this
newsboy, who valued a reward more
than watch with monogram and chate-
LANES attached. was disconsolate. Then
the carriage called took the watch away
from the boy and gave him a kick which
sent him into the gutter. The boy
scrambled to his feet and reported the
case to . policeman.
The policeman spoke to the carriage
caller, who told him that the watch
would be turned into the Office. The
newsboy was much incensed.

does turn it in"

With the sordid traffic soiling

THE ELECTIONS.

n municipal election is not ALWAYS a
safe test of the drift of political senti-
ment, but it always serves as a good
big straw to show which way the wind
is blowing. The municipal elections in
Ohio Monday and the election in Chi
cago yesterday We're grand triumphs
Tor the Democrats. In Cincinnati the
Democratic candidate for mayor was
elected by a plurality of more than
1000. Last November Mckinley carried
Cincinnati by 10000 plurality What a
splendid gain is that, Springfield, the
home os Governor bushnell. was car
ried by the Democrats. Truly, the
Ohio towns have done themselves
proud.
But what a victory was Harrisons
in Chicago, He is elected by a majority
somewhere in the neighborhood of 75.-
o00 And only last fall Chicago was
for Mckinley. There seems something
so fitting in the election of Carter H.
Harrison as mayor of Chicago. While
his father was serving in the same ca
pacity ne was stricken down by the
hand of the assassin. And there is an
other thing that adds joy to his tri-
umph. It is the fact that ex-Postmaster
Washington Hesing was so gloriously
defeated. Got less than $1,000 votes
Harrison's election is a glorious vic
tory.
No political forecasts can be made as
the result of these elections. Were there
any congressional elections this year
there might be. but there are not. Per-
haps all that can be said is that they
show very decidedly the overwhelming
Republican victory of last year has by
no means given that party a secure
hold on the people. Were there any
congressional elections this fall these
municipal elections would give the Re
publicans great cause for trembling.
Had the prosperity so glibly promised
last summer followed McKinlev's cleo
ton and induction into office there
would scarcely have been such a re-
versal of political sentiment. These
elections make it plain that political
unrest is still abroad in the land.

be TO ALLEVIATE Canadian sympathy and
to cause England to be more assiduous
in cultivating Canadian trade relations
and going to that country for much

closer to her in the future than they
have ever been in the past. And TO
draw her colonies closer to her would
be England's true policy.

The retroactive clause of the Dingiey
bill is destined to be dragons tooth
sown by the Republican party. The
New York Commercial Advertiser finds
ii impossible to believe that the Repub-
lican party leaders in Washington seri-
ously think of making the bill retro
active. 1t thinks it is regrettable. of
course. that importers should load up
their warehouses with goods and thus
deprive the country of revenue, and it
must be said with equal frankness that
the Republicans in congress are war
ranted in trying to devise some prac-
teal way to meet the emergency, but
retroactive legislation is not the right
way" OF course it is very regrettable
that importers should load up their
warehouses with goods and so deprive
the government of needed revenue. No
importer who believes in tariff would
do this. but there are importers who do
not believe in high tariffs, and who are
very human and look out for their own
revenue before looking out for the gov
ernments. Such importers should be
dealt with very severely if possible.
But the Commercial Advertiser COM
ments on the proposition very sensibly
when it says:
From every point of view the prop
osition is bad. 1t is unfair, unjust, in
expedient from party standpoint, I'M
constitutional, and would constitute a
breach of contract that no court in the
land would uphold. 1t is the wrong
way TO start out a good revenue bill.
Endless expensive litigation would
follow. The measure would immedi-
ately encounter disfavor and the whole
question would have TO go TO the su-
preme court for decision, while bust
ness would suffer and the new duties
which should be collected under the
bill would amount to so little that they
would hardly meet the governments
necessary requirements.
Retroactive legislation is rarely wa
ranted. The courts have almost in
variably decided that it is unconstitu-
tional Where is congress going to
draw the line? Why begin at April
10. 1897? Why not make the bill take
effect April 10, 1885, 1895 or 1894? Any
one of these years would be as fair
md just as legal as the other. The
whole subject is unworthy of congress. |
