The honeymoon is the sugar coating
to the pill of m atrimony.
Evening weddings make a shorter
married life than afternoon or morn
ing weddings-by several hours.
To know a count to be no account is
of great account.
Wisdom if the outward sign of age,
therefore appear to be as foolish as
possible. ~
Too much polish on manners ia apt
to indicate that they have not long
been in use.

AS A MATTER OF JUSTICE.

During the late campaign considers
,,le feeling was developed betwepn
what we may call different factions of
The Democratic party This feeling
eliminated in letter which appear Il
IN the Enquirer of Friday, November
4th. and an answer To which was pub.
ished IN The UTAH COUNTY DEMO
cnAT OF Saturday. November 9Th As
n preface we desire tu add that It. Is
now aud always shall be our wish o be-
fair. The Enquirer article asslied
certain candidates on The Democratic
icket and was signed "a Democrat"
The letter In Tue DEMOCRAT answered
and, together with atll IayI $, dispruvrd
lhuse charges. La the letter tp The
DEMOCRAT the reference was made
that Mrs. Ellen Jakenan. county irea-
surer, was responsible for he Enquirer
article. As matter OF Justice we de-
sire to say that Mrs. Jakemhn posi-
lively denies any responsibility for the
article, and states that she is unaware
of its authorship. We see no reason 10
doubt her statement. AS tn the Office
OF county treasurer. for ourselves, We
desire To say that we believe that Mra.
Jakeman has conducted the business
uf the Office In most able aud sitis-
factory manner aud is entitled to the
highest credit from the citizens Of
Utah county. The election is over and
we trust political aud personal Diff
culties aud misunderstanding will
speedily be lost sight of in the interest
Of our common good.

ACKNOWLEDGES THE CORN"

Now that the campaign Is over at
least one Republican paper in Utah
admits that the Republican State plat
form was dcliIsion and snare. hat
paper is the Provo Enquirer. which in
a ecent issue says:
The State has again gone Demo-
cratic, hut with "A reduced majority
There has been much apathy shown on
the part Of the Republicans, which we
think Is largely due TO the mixed plat
form on which the party tried to run
It's campaign. We notice that several
OF the rank Republican cenlers of the
past have fallen down this year. not
because of an increase of the Demn-
cratic vote. but because the Republi-
cans did not 20 70 The polls, II the
campaign Is run more in accord with
the national party, there will he more
enthusiasm manifest by Republicans
throughout the State.
IL would at least have been more
honest II Utah Republicans had voiced
the true sentiments Of their party aud
not made the futile attempt to win on
Il suhterfuge. The Utah State Repub.
lean platform was certainly as the
Enquirer expresses 1t mixed" In one
sentence II declares for free silver ut 10
to and In another endorses the gold
bug policies of President Mckinley.
The practical admission of the En-
quirer that the Utah Republicans
sailed under false colors and tried to
gain dishonest victory Is gratifying
even at this late date. Hereafter we
hope this sensible and logical advice of
the Salt Lake Herald will be followed;
Let both parties sail under their true
colors; the Republicans under the
single gold standard; the Democrats
under the timetable standard.

WHERE THEY STAND.

During the recent campaign 1t has
frequently been asserted by Republican
orators that silver was not an issue in
the East between the parties. That
statement was continually reiterated
Notwithstanding the Republicans OF
the East ALWAYS maintained that IL
was an issue there. New York was
particularly cited by the Republicans of
Utah as being State in which the sill
yer question was not an issue. The
other day banquet was given TO
governor-elect Roosevelt In New York.
AT that banquet, Chauncey NJ. Depew,
the oracle OF Eastern Republicans aud
monopolists. said; Nobody can ques.
tion where we stand. We stand
squarcly for honest money; for dollar
that Is worth 100 cents, based upon
gold" This being interpreted 10 the
language of the ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
hug combination. means that the Re-
publican party stands for gold alone.
When the Republican parry In the East
stands for gold, then the Republican
party In the West necessarily stands
Tor gold, because the Eastern Rerub.
leans always have and always will
dominate tho party. We trust thai
defeated party In Utah will never
again attempt the sLraddle bug act.
but will admit It is for gold. as the
party must be everywhere In order to
be Republican.
