UTAH'S OMAHA EXHIBIT.


Judge L. w. shurtliT OF Ogden,
chairman of Utah's Transmlssissippi
Exposition commission. was In Salt
Lake on business today. In brief in
terview with News" representative
he said that Utah's mineral booth had
been completed at the big exposition
and that the contract for the agricul-
tural booth had been let on Saturday
last by Superintendent Whitaker and
that all would be in readiness in a few
days.
Don Mcguire is also In the capital as
well as Judge Shurtliff and is arrang-
ing for placing the mineral exhibit on
the cars, loading OF which begins under
Mr.. Maguire's supervision tomorrow
The State University officials had a lot
OF valuable mineral exhibits packed to-
day for the collection which, when in
place, will far exceed the big prize
mining effort at the Worlds Fair. Two
carloads Of exhibits will be made ready
at Ogden and all should reach Omaha
by the 10th inst. The Exposition will
open on June LIST and continue for four
months. Judge Shurtliff says the stu
pendousness OF the undertaking Is very
surprising and will be an eye-opener to
many people. Utah, he says, Will have
just cause to be proud of the showing
she will make.

Promotion for Colonel Kent.

A Chicago paper publishes a Wash
ington dispatch in which Col. Kent of
the Twenty-fourth infantry is mem
toned for brigadier-g eneralship. The
special also says;
In selecting the brigadier- generals
FOR the volunteer army, and they will
number about forty. the President in
tends to get men who are qualified by
actual practical experience to organize,
equip and drill troops. There are sew
cral hundred applications for these APP
pointments and most OF them are from
politicians and men who served during
the war of the Rebellion. Some of them,
as an officer of the army expressed it,
don't Know the back of their head from
cartridge box, but they nevertheless
feel competent to command troops 1t
Is believed that majority of the brig
adler generals will be selected from the
regimental commanders, lieutenant col
onels. majors and captains OF the regu-
lar army"

Rev d. Tillotson. of Terre Haute,
Ind, pastor of the First Methodist
Church, the largest in the city, in
talking TO the Epworth League on the
Cuban war, referred to the influence
Of the great money lenders in causing
Europe not to interfere with the Turk
in Armenia, and added:
They have no consideration for loss
of life. for oppression, for murder or
rapne. The Rothschilds and other
great money lenders have hundreds of
millions invested in Spanish bonds
and are attempting to cause a peace
ful settlement of the Cuban question.
They DO net care if the insurgents are
put TO the sword But they do care
that Spain pay the face value of the
bonds The Rothschilds now have
their agents in Washington exerting
their influence 10 have the United
States show the same indifference 20
Spanish cruelty in Cuba that Europe
did Turkish atrocities in Armenia.
These emissaries have gone to Presi
dent Mckinley"
The reverend gentleman states n
truism. But are not all money lend
ers built the same way? And if Mr..
Tillotson were a money lender to a
large amount would he not exert all
legitimate means to save his invest
ment? That is but natural. it is hui
man nature, and we do not see how
any serious blame can attach to the
creditor for carefully guarding his
own so he does not trespass the law
Tie money lenders are not the only
people who want peace at any price.
There are others" These various
interested parties surround all admin
istrations and endeavor to prevent the
execution OF the popular will. How
ever it is for the administration to do
its duty irrespective OF the money
lenders wishes. or the wishes of any
other interest Firmness in the right,
whether it lead to peace or war, is the
main thing. In fact it is the only
thing to establish confidence and per-
petuate the government on solid
foundations. It was firmness that
gave Old Hickory such a hold upon
the people.

possible destroy it or else demand a

lied by the business men of that city,

fears were manifested publicly But
they do not seem to be built that way
And be it said to their credit that they

for at the regular monthly meeting of
the merchants and manufacturers
board of trade was adopted a resolu-
ton affirming the belief that Spain
was responsible for the loss of the
Maine and that substantial indem-
nifty and an ample Teparation should
be demanded without further delay.
The resolution further declares that
the independence of Cuba should be

peace if possible, but by force of arms
if necessary.

ATTEMPTED MURDER.
W. a Sands. Formerly OF Mannington'
Tried to Kill His Wife at Cumberland
Two shots Took Effect.

Special to the Register.
Cumberland. Nd, April S.-To-day
at noon. while Mrs. w. a. Sands was
talking in a doorway with a friend,
her husband walked UP to her, and
after speaking to her for moment,
fred two shots at her with a 44calibre
hill dog revolver. One of the shots
took effect in her face, the other in her
right hand. Sands then gave himself
m to the sheriff after making the re-
mark: Il hope she will die.
The couple came here four months
ago and boarded at a hotel. Mrs.
Sands saws she was formerly the wife
of a Mr.. Frank, hotel man, at Man
nington. W. Va. and that Sands
boarded with them. She also says that
she belongs to a good family at Man.

and she applied for divorce and mar
ried Sands. Her first marriage with
Sands was not legal, and they got
married the second time.
She is thirty-five. and quite pretty
The would-be murderer is hand

present incumbent of this Congress
sional district ought to be showed I'M
der by such a shower of votes at the
next convention that politically he
might as well be put in a casket and
stored away in the political cemetery
of the Republican party for good and
a.. And who can say that this severe
punishment would be unjust or 100
cruel-providing. of course, the
charges can be proven. But before
the Registers many Republican read
they should remember the old saw
tat ore story is good until the other

The reader would think that Wiz
ginius' had exhausted his charges
and expended all his feelings in the
above Not so, he continues philippe
in the following spirited vein:
he pathway of Mr.. Dovener's cam
pa Sn through this district Is strewn with
unfulfilled promises and unredeemed
pledges and he will find that what he
imagines 10 be the coffined and unshroud-
cd ghosts of the past. TO be living, breath
ing entities with lusty sinews and strong
memories when he again seeks to secure
their personal sympathies and enlist their
political suffrages in his behalf. Mr.
Dovener even were he the eminent pa
triot and exalted statesman he processes
himself TO he, mas been sufficiently honor
ed by the people Of this district. and the
hour of his retirement for another and
worthier candidate would seem to have
struck. In Congress his boasted talents
have found thsir proper orbit. ana Inglor
ious oblivion has ben his lot.
Democratic victory this fall I believe
to be a POLITICAL imposs.bility. ] am un-
able TO foretell who will be the Republican
standard bearer. but l am convinced the
name of the nominee Will not read Down
er. If the wishes of the majority of the
party are carried ont in convention.
If the above is any criterion of Con-
gresham Doveners status among his
party. then that gentleman may eX-
pect to hear something drop before
the end of his present term. 1t is
noteworthy that it seldom falls to the
lot of West Virginia Congressman 70
serve longer than two consecutive
terms. In that time he has managed
TO make in the distribution of plums
a sufficient number Of active enemies
within his party TO overthrow all his
subsequent aspirations; SO his renom-
nation is hardly likely. But If he
succeeds in capturing it his defeat at
the polls would be quite sure, for the
Democrats are in the saddle.
