licans in Utah were for silver, it would
not help the cause unless they had a
national party back of them. The
question is national and not local
one.
In answer to the question what has
the Democratic party done for silver,
the speaker called attention to the fact
that prior to 1896 the question was un-
advocated, except in a perfunctory
manner. by either party, and by a few
thinkers scattered throughout the
United States and England In 1895,
the Democratic party. following the
traditions of its past, lifted silver from
the mire of local politics and made it
a national issue, pledging to its accom-
pHshment all the powers of the Dem
ocratic organization. On the other
hand, the Republican party, after play
ing with the question since 1873, finally
laid aside its mask and stood revealed
the advocate of gold monometalism.

tonight with their eloquence in behalf
of the party of the people. The gen
tlemen arrived from Kamas at o'clock
and upon entering Andrews new build
ing, the largest hall available in the
city, found it crowded to the doors.
Mr.. Roberts was cheered loudly as he
entered and took his seat upon the
stage. The audience was very atten-
tive and exceptionally demonstrative,
the speakers at times being compelled
to wait for the thunderous applause to
subside.
Mr. Roberts, in beginning, spoke OF
the Importance of the campaign and the
necessity of electing and sending men
pledged to support silver to both houses
of the national legislature. He ex-
planned his position on the eight-hour
law and his opposition to the bill in
troduced because he did not wish to
overlook the constitutional convention
with matters which belonged to the
legislature. He declared in unmistake-
able terms his friendliness to labor, be-
ing himself a laboring man.
AS to the silver question, Mr.. Roberts
assumed that those present were settled
in their convictions as to the wisdom
OF bimetallic policy for the reason
that, in connection with their fellow
citizens Of Utah, they had accepted it
and rolled up majority of $4,000 for
free silver and William j. Bryan. AS
nothing had occurred in the past two
years to justify them in reversing the
decision then made, he logically con-
cluded that they were now only look
ing for an agency that had both the
inclination and the power to carry into
effect the wishes they then expressed.
This led to a logical review of the his
tory of fhe two parties and their pres
ent attitude with reference to silver,
and the speaker clearly demonstrated
that Democracy was the only agency
to which the people of Utah could turn
with any hope, that it would accom-
plish monetary reform and give back

able for its incoherency and disregard
of the ordinary rules of correct speak
ing. It was not such an address, if
delivered on the floor of congress,
would make Utah proud of her repre-
sentative. 1t and the governors ad-
dress are given verbatim in the report
which follows.
None OF the speakers faced the money
question fairly and squarely. Those
who referred to it all linked in the usual
parrot-like way, bimetaliism, protec-
tion and reciprocity, endeavoring at
ore moment to make it appear that the
Republicans were the friends OF silver
and at another staunch supporters OF
Mckinley and his administration, but
in their ardent advocacy OF protection
the silver issue was obScured.
When Nj Eldredse came out from
the wings a couple of boys in the top
gallery, who no doubt recognized the
congressional candidate from his pic
lures in the newspapers, sought to stir
up a little enthusiasm by whistling.
Fred Price mistook this kind of DEM
onstration for a reflection on the candi-
date and threatened to send a police
man up and clear out the whole crowd.
The rest of the audience either did not
, recognize Nj Eldredge or else lacked
the courage to cheer, for they remained
silent
The K. of p band played a medley of
national airs which evoked some cheers,
and then Wesley X. Walton appeared
and introduced Governor Wells as
chairman of the meeting.
No one suspected the chief executive
of the state would make the most in
teresting speech Of the evening as he
pulled the manuscript out OF his pock-

fact, before he was through he created
an interest that produced almost
breathless silence.

EaUANIMITY AT WASHINGTON
Government Well Prepared For Any

Washington, Nov. 4.-The administra-
ton is waiting results from the peace
commission with equanimity, in the
realization that the government is per-
fectly we'll pepared for any turn the
negotiations may take. The navy, es-
pecially. is in a state of preparedness
should it come to resumption of hos
tilities far in advance of its condition
at the outbreak of the war. One by
one all the splendid fighting machines
of the North Atlantic squadron, which
had been brought north at the earliest
moment, were docked, cleaned and
thoroughly refitted at the New York
and Norfolk navy yards.
Their ammunition supplies We're re-
plenished and they are now, with possi-
bly, one or two exceptions, ready for in
stant service in almost any quarter Of
the globe.
Admiral Dewey has dispatched his
vessels, one by one, to the big British
docks at Hongkong, where they have
been placed in as good condition as pos
sible outside of our home ports. Sec

AS far as the army is concerned,
while the original force of nearly a
quarter of million men called into
the service by the president has been
largely diminished by the mastering

tions, it is the opinion of expert mill
tary authorities that the army, as a
whole. is now a more formidable
weapon than it was at any period dur

ing.the war. This apparently paradox
ical statement is explained by the fact
that such of the troops as are now in
the service have had the discipline
improved in efficiency, and their officers
know how to take care of them as well
as to fight battles
The staff corps have cured many OF
the evils from which they suffered dur-
ing the war and are prepared to move
troops with rapidity, with the care for
their health and for their adequate
rationing during any campaign that
might be expected. In fact, all branches
of military and naval service profited
by the experience of the war and are
now, as previously stated, in better
shape than ever before.

TO PREPARE COLD MEATS.
The Best Ways Have Been Learned
from the Cooks of
France.

Few cooks in this country understand
the art of preparing cold meat dishes
This is part of cookery in which the
French excel. The greatest attention is
paid by them not only to the cooking,
but to- the mounting and decorating Of
these meats, SO that dish is not only
pleasing to the eye, but gives an equal
pleasure to the partaker in the eating
of it. Large pieces of meat, such as a
ham, galantine, a noix of beef or a
stuffed loin of veal, when served cold
are generally placed on mound, raised
to fit the center of the platter.
This mound should be about The
height of the outer rim of the platter.
1t may be made of various things, such
as fat whipped until cold, then chilled
and formed into proper shape, but one
of the most appropriate and toothsome
articles of diet for this purpose is boiled
rice, seasoned and pounded to a paste,
and moulded into fiat form. It may be
spread with green Montpelier butter,
pink lobster butter or simple butter.
For hot dish the mound is egged
and Drowned in the oven. The value of
such mound in raising an ornamental
cold dish so it can be more effectively
seen will be readily appreciated.
The rice can be decorated, as sug-
gested, with a green butter. This is
made of equal parts of cherril, tarragon,
chives and watercress, scalded, drained
and beaten to paste, with two pounds
OF butter. 1t is then strained through a
sieve. Anchovy butter and lobster and
shrimp butter are used with cold fish.

FEEDING DAIRY cows.
Lies IN the Farmer's Ingenuity
and Ability.

Successful dairy feeding does not de-
pend wholly upon the kind Of food used
or the relative amounts of each kind
fed, but it depends largely upon how
it is fed and when it is fed.
z The successful feeder will study the
wants of his cows just as much as the
successful caterer studies the tastes
of his customers. He will try to give
them their food il as palatable con-
dition as possible, though not neces-
sarily in what may be termed fancy
style, which would be impractical. He
will also see to the comfort of his ami
mails. This point we consider as being
directly in connection with feeding,
for COW which is uncomfortable must
necessarily use more of her feed for
bodily repair than she otherwise
would. No dairyman would ever think
Of using amilk bucket which leaked,
yet there are many dairymen who,
during single winter, lose milk by the
pound through the cracks of their
stable. Such conditions must neces-
sarily increase the expenses and hence

we consider most directly connected
with the subject of practical and Sci
entife dairy feeding.
Regularity in feeding is another i'm
portant factor. If cattle are fed at
certain times of the day, and only at
those times as far as practical, they
will learn to expect it then and only
then. This will remove the uneasiness
often exhibited when persons enter
the stable or are working about them
at other times. 1t is also a saving on
their digestive organs.
l. No permanent rule can be laid down
by which to feed dairy cattle. No ono
feed, no one way of feeding, or no one
| amount of feed will suit all conditions
or all animals. The true secret of sue
cess in the business lies in the ability
and ingenuity of the dairyman him
self. He must lie capable of deciding
what feeds he can use and how he cal
use them to produce the creates
amount of his particular product
milk, etc.-of best quality and will
least expense. Unless he is in tn,
business for fun, his profits will be hi
success, and so he must work for tina
end.-Barnum's Midland Farmer.

PITTING POTATOES.
In the Safest Way OF Keep
ing the Tubers.

Potatoes keep better in pit than
anywhere else, but they must be well
protected to prevent zero weather from
catching them. They should never be
covered deeply enough to allow them to
become at all heated or they will start
TO grow. The first covering should be
not more than six inches deep and this
should not be increased until the
ground has frozen enough to bear up
man. Then put on covering of straw,
ever the soil already on, and put on
more soil, patting it down to make it
shed rain. Leave the pit until actual
winter has come and the ground is well
frozen and then over all put foot of
fresh manure from the stables. Don't
be afraid of driving The frost in, for this
will not happen. Keep the manure on
until the potatoes are needed in the
spring, for the covered pit will not
thaw out nor will the manure allow it to
freeze any more, and the potatoes will
not sprout until time for planting in the
spring if left in the pit.
Potatoes that are to be used for seed
should be placed in pit by themselves
SO as to leave them undisturbed until
taken out to plant.-Farmers' Voice.

FRILLs OF / ASHTON
some New Notions Now Noticed Z
the Costulnes Of the
Season.

White silk waists are the thing to
year with your blue cloth skirt and coat,
and very pretty touch is given with
o narrow belt and a necktie Of blue
Eor mauve velvet ribbon. The collar
band should be Of tucked white silk,
and the velvet, an inch and half wide.
Is carried around the lower edge and
tied in short bow in front. A pretty
model among the white waists has
yoke back and front where it points
down to the belt, covered with lace
embroidered with blue. aI 49,
Some of the newest coats are made
sacque shape and so long that they
reach within nine inches of the bot
tom of the skirt. A fichu-shaped col
lar and cuffs of fur are the finish.
French women are wearing pointed
wraps of cloth to match their gowns.
Fur and bands of velvet are the trim
ming,
A pretty theater waist of pale yellow
silk opens in front over vest of black
satin covered with cream lace. The
edges of the silk down either side are
trimmed with braided pattern carried
out in black silk cord, and the collar
band is of satin covered with lace. The
belt and cuffs are of black satin.
The new silks are exquisite in color
and finish, having a wonderful sheen,
SO soft and deep that it must be part
of the entire fabric and not simply q
shine on the surface. How much there
is in name remains for the purchaser
to discover, but something in satin
called "Cotele dor" has crosswise
cord, is very heavy, and comes in beau
tiful light colors. Princesse satin woven
with fancy surface of small squares
is very elegant for coats and wraps.
"Satin Roxane," very glossy, is an
other variety, and there is new MORE
very attractive in the marking and soft
er in finish than the old silks of this
kind.
| Whole volumes might be written
about the variety in neck gear in sight,
but the latest is small edition of the
crinkled bow made of black velvet and
pinned to the collar band in front. Rib
bon four-in-hands are very pretty, OF
course, and to make variety tie the rib
bon in very short bow, leaving the
ends to hang straight down to the waist
Another fad is to fasten the in
side edges of the long ends to-
gether with gold studs, first making
eyelets in the ribbon, of course.
If you have any old cameo pins OF
bracelets, have them mounted in gold
clasps or buttons for finish on your
cloth gown. Fancy buttons are a
great feature of fashion, and some OF
them are of enamel, beautifully paint
ed; antique silver, set with rhinestones
and large buttons of velvet covered with
real lace.-N. Y. Sun.
