but we fraternally acknowledge our
satisfaction at the evidence of interest
in this work shown in our contempo-

thing every day in at least one Salt
Lake newspaper that is worth read

articles. and for this reason we would
be glad TO have it explain why, in its
Saturday article on that subject, when

THE COALITION.

The coalition of Democrats. silver
Republicans and Populists in the SEN
ate is an important matter 1t means
united action by an opposition that
will present a solid front The coali-
ton may have no influence beyond the
senate, through future developments
might prove otherwise. 1t certainly
forms a nucleus around with the sill

a year and a half hence were the
main issue in the congressional cleo
improbable case.
The silver Republicans who have
gone into it say that the motive that
prompted them was to protect the
finance committee, which they feared
might become an anti-silver organiza-
ton in case the Republicans were al
lowed to have their own way in the
matter of committee organization. That
is proper, the purpose being to see
that nothing hostile to silver as it
stands today is done, and not for the
purpose of starting a silver agitation.
Senator Jones said he was hardly pre-
pared to say that no amendments pro-
viding for free coinage would be of
fered to the tariff bill. Unless that
matter has been decided upon in eau
Gus of the silver senators it would be
impossible for him or any one to say
definitely what would be done. Yet
it is hardly probable that any such
amendments will be offered; it would
be very bad policy to offer them. 1t
would mean obstruction and would
give the enemies of silver (who are
already more or less discounted and
filled with chagrin at the failure of
their predictions as to what would be
the result of an election declaring in
favor of sound money! an opportun-
ity to throw the people back onto a

follow the true scent. The coalition
cannot fail to be a source of much
worriment to the sound money forces
of the senate as well as Of the country.

In the Los Angeles Herald of Thurs
day last (the 7th), is communication
from Hon. Mrs. Z. K. La Barthe, Civ
ing the history of her anti-high theater
hat bill. Among other things she SAYS:
L enclose copy of my original the
alter hat bill, and a further copy of it in
amended form. According to my way of
thinking, the original is far better than
the amended bill. But as Salt Lake CITY
has no modern opera house, it was
thought the governor being a stock
holder in our theater building, might
veto the bill if he was required to build
an additional room for wraps. etc. That
is the way the bill was amended. Even
in its amended form it is relief. for If
we do have to hold our wraps in our
laps, we can at least see what is going
on on the stage, instead of being treate
to the rear view of a towering mass of
feathers, flowers, ribbon and felt. 1 will
not deny that the big hat has its uses,
but being placed on view at the theater
is not one of those to which it should
be devoted.

Barthe's bill as originally introduced
provided that managers of theaters,
opera houses and places of amusement
should provide suitable rooms for the
placing of such wearing apparel; and
that managers OF theaters, opera
houses and places of amusement should
be responsible for the enforcement of
this law, and in case of failure to do
so, they should be subject to a fine of
not less than SO nor more than 500
for each offense And that was the
proper thing to do if there was to be
