ADMINISTRATION DELAYS.

| The president is having almost as
hard time in making up his mind
on the Philippine question as he had
| in deciding whether or not to go to
war.
1t is this vacillation which embar-
raised the country at the beginning,
and nonplussed the party cuckoos all
through the war.
First he favored Cuban invasion,
| then opposed it; advocated a siege of
Havana, then abandoned it; inclined
to conquest, then turned away from it;
endorsed the holding of the Philippines,
and changed his mind about seven or
eight times, until no one knows where
he is today.
Several Republican state conventions
have been held without daring to de-
clare themselves on the question of
Philippine annexation, for fear they
would fail to be in accord with the
administration. All of which is very
annoying. Now that Senator Hanna
has gone back from the Yellowstone
and the president has met him, de-
cision may be announced shortly.
Some Republicans believe, however,
that it is already too late to make it
a party question. Many Republican
leaders, whose judgment cannot be
ignored, have declared against the re-
tention of the far distant isles of the
orient, and several state platforms
have lodged the issue.
This leads that ardent administration
supporter, the Chicago Times Herald,
to remark:
1t is easy to see that the territorial
question cannot be made a party issue
in the state elections this fall. 1t is
also certain that the state platform
declarations of the two parties on this
question will have controlling influence
in shaping the announcements of the
national platforms in the next presi-
Dental campaign. Unless the national
conventions can get entirely away
from the influences that have prevailed
in the state conventions, there is no
possibility of making territorial eXpan-
sion party issue in 1900. That these
questions will be settled from the
of our national interest and
destiny, and not from a Republican or
Democratic standpoint. was never so
certain as it is now.

PART1sANs AND PATRIOTS

The people of the United States know
of but one method of administering
the affairs of government, and that is
ton of the constitution, all their poll
e.es. have been wrought out through
/ the agency of parties With the pos
sibIe exception of Washington, every
president of the United States has been
a partisan, and has been elected as
such. John Adams was virulent par
tisan; Jefferson was strong partisan,
not so virulent as Adams, because
their natures were essentially differ
ent. Madison and Monroe were parti-
sans, while Jackson's name is the very
synonym Of partisanship. Lincoln was
[ a strong partisan, and the Lincoln
Douglas debates were among the
strongest partisan discussions ever
held in this country. And those de-
bates made Lincoln president. john
son and Grant were partisans, as were
Cleveland and Harrison. as President
Mckinley is The most famous names
in American political history are those
OF partisans, ana their greatest
speeches were made on party ques-
tions. Clay and Calhoun, Webster and
Hayne. were partisans. So were Sum-
ner and Tilden. 1t is impossible to
name single great man in American
political history who was not a parti-
san.
A partisan is an adherent of certain
political principles, and when he asso-
ciates himself with others, who hold
the same principles, for their advance
ment. a party is formed. In modern
times every advance towards greater
freedom of political action has been
made through party action. Consti-
tutional government in America and
Europe means party government. Then
why should anyone reprobate parties
and partisans. Those who do so set
themselves up, consciously or uncon-
sciously, as being holier than their
fellow men. Possibly they are. but
probably not. The days Of the perfect
men are gone, though the days of the
canting hypocrites abide. The man
who denounces parties and partisans
becomes an anti-partisan partisan.
just as some of The greatest bigots and
most rabid fanatics in the world are
the denunciators of religion.
When men are ever talking about
the patriotic citizen, who sees things
so clearly and justly, who is never
actuated by any motive less pure than
those which actuate the angels, the
ordinary man, the man who is a par
tisan and says so, who pays his debts !
of all kinds, public and private; who
honors his father and his mother, that |
man recalls the fable of the preaching
fox, and looks out for his chickens. |
Old Samuel Johnson was right when |
he said, Patriotism is the last refuge |
of a scoundrel''

MARTINETISM TRIUMPHANT.

1t is a common saying that profess
sional honor bids physician permit
| patient to die if he can only be saved
out of the regular method of treatment
And this appears to be the policy
adopted in the army, to a large de-
gree.
w. E. Curtis, the Washington corre-
spondent of the Chicago Record, has
something to say about affairs at Mon
tauk Point, and the way they are man
aged, that is somewhat of a revelation.
After telling how the regular ration
of the army is issued to regulars and
volunteers alike at Camp Wikoff-salt
meat one day and fresh meat the next
with potatoes, onions. coffee sugar and
so many pounds of soft and hard
bread; that while this does very well
for the regulars. who are accustomed
to such diet, etvolunteers, and par
ticularly those who have been sick,
cannot eat salt meat. Then he tells
of volunteer who related how his
mouth would no longer open to salt
meat; how he could not digest it; how
pork nauseated him, and salt HORSE
worse. General Wheeler, he says, hav-
ing discovered this state of affairs to
exist, issued an order TO the commits
saries the other day to serve more
vegetables. The quartermaster gen.
eral, to whom the matter was referred.
declined to obey, on the ground that
the army ration was fixed by an act
of congress and could not be varied
without a violation of law
This was a beautiful example of re-
gard for the letter of the law, and an
utter disregard for suffering humanity. |
1t was not militarism; it was martin !,
etism. When the secretary of war ar |
rived at Camp Wikoff he gave an or
der practically the same as that issued |
by General Wheeler, and it was COM |

THE END Is NOT YET.

Our morning contemporary, following
it's natural trend of thought told a vul-
gar story yesterday, but in mysterious
terms.
In vulgarity and vituDeration the
Tribune is more than a match for any
one. Those are the weapons in the use
of which it is particularly skilled. Its
argument is abuse, it's wit indecency.
If it made point at all in its story
yesterday. it was a coarse and ribald
beast that it had sought to debauch
the silver cause, and, being detected,
was testing because the punishment
melted out had not been equal to it's
offense
1t is well for the political libertine
whose boast is infidelity, to laugh right
new. It is the best time. The matter
is not disposed of yet. Before this cam
oaign is over the wanton wretch will
be glad to cry enough" 1t will be
branded with the record of its infamy,
and broken on the wheel of public con-
te.c.t.
The Tribune must not solace itself
with the expectation that it can pros
titute the cause of free coinage and
escape with only a broken umbrella.

THE OLD CANTEEN.

AS 1 searched today the attic
In the farmhouse old and gray
Whence in years to me most sacred,
To the war l marched away
Hid amid the dust and rubbish
Where the cobwebS intervene.
Here l found a relic precious
Ny old army tin canteen.
Though the cloth was worn to tatters,
And the rust was thick oerspread;
Though its strap had long since parted
With the clasps it once had wed:
Yet it seemed to me a treasure.
Shining bright with glowing sheen.
Lighting up the place with glory,
Where [ found the old canteen.
Back it carries me in fancy
To that day-our first review
When we marched adown the village,
Clad in patriotic blue;
Guns that shone like FURNISHED silver,
Bright against the summer green,
And the box and knapsack polished.
With that army tin canteen.
Where are those that marched that morn
ing, &c So
Elbow touching clbov-N77rue?
Many sleep, but few are waiting
For that silent. last review.
Guns and knapsacks both have vanished,
In the years that long have been;
This alone of all remaining
My old army tin canteen.
Mid the march and mid the battle,
1t was ever near to me:
Sick or weary, tired or wounded,
1t was true as friend could be:
And when home at last returning,
Two old comrades neared the scene
One a soldier, manned and wounded,
One an army tin canteen.
We have older grown together
Veterans from the soldier days.
And sight of it hath Weakened
Dearest memories OF my gaze;
Long VIII L TINS treasure clerlSn,
And when death shall close the scene,
May they place us both together
Me and tbee-ny old canteen.
BY Mexican War Veteran.

NO FAVoRITIsM ASKED.

AT . meeting of Democratic women
yesterday a resolution was unanimous
ly 0assed which reflects credit
alike uoon their common sense and
party loyalty.
1t shows that they consider them
selves members of the party on an
equality with other members, neither
asking nor expecting special considera-
ton on account of sex.
Women have been accused, in GER
tain quarters, of organizing political
clubs for the purpose of compelling
recognition on the party tickets. The
Democratic ladies of Salt Lake City
have said. by this resolution, that the
charge is untrue.
They are in politics to make cam
paigns cleaner and administrations
better. That is their object. whatever
may be the opinion of men as to the
result.
1t is not for office, it is not for the
purpose of furthering the interest of
any member that the Ladies' Demo-
cratic club was organized; it is to as
sist in the selection of honest, effic-
lent and capable candidates and pub
lie officials. regardless of sex.
The club is to be commended for its
good sense and broad views.

THE SILVER ISSUE.

The Democrats are declaring for sill
yer. Cor it's free and unlimited coinage
at the ratio of 16 to 1, for independent
action on the financial question, where
ever national issues enter into a state
campaign.
Even where state issues, for local
reasons. are alone considered, none but
silver men have found recognition on
the Democratic ticket.
The Democrats of Ohio, Indiana, Illi-
nois. Vermont and other rich and pop
sissippi have adopted silver platforms,
reaffirming that of Chicago in 1896, and
all their candidates are we'll known
silver men
On the other hand. every state con-
vention held by the Republicans this
year has endorsed the st. Louis plat
form. declared for the single standard,
and EXPRESSED entire confidence in the
administration. without making any
exception of it's financial policy.
1t was following the action of the
Ohio Democratic convention, which de-
clared emphatically for bime;allism end
the Chicago platform, that an Ogden
laper stated:
Throughout the eastern states there
is no DISPOSITION manifested on the
part of the Democrats to make the sill
yer question an issue. the leaders COM
handing that the party stand on state
issues.
And thus our soldbug friends hope to
deceive the people of Utah by misreD-
resenting the true state of affairs in
the east

When the American troops first ar
rived in Santiago some of them or the
camp followers conceived the idea of
being more thrifty than honest. They
passed confederate money on the Span

story:

the first victims of the confederate

that he had been stuck for about $50

a bull of Bashan, and invoked all the

fiGious Yankee pigs. Shortly after this

There is no issue more important to
this nation than the monetary issue"
says the Chicago Dispatch. There is
nothing that could more &C induce to the
prosperity of the people than the free
coinage of silver and gold at a ratio
of 16 to 1. This is what 6,500,000 citizens
of the United States voted for in 1896.
This IS what they demand an opoor-
