Chairman Elliot stated that many of
the good intentions of the bankers

ticians, who looked upon any legisla-
ton suggested by the bankers as COM
ing from body bent upon personal
qualification and for personal ends.
President Valentine, in a carefully
prepared treatise, declared that the as
ISOLATION and similar institutions
should prepare to meet the energies of
the free silver organizations in the
coming campaign.

condemn that theory of party loyalty
which requires from its members the
full endorsement of every principle
enunciated in the party platform and
a straight vote for every nominee.
The platform was adopted, after
some changes of little Importance had
been made
Following the adoption of the plat
form, Mr.. Lawrence read an address
to the voters, which was adopted.
L. H. Gray then presented resolu-
ton endorsing the Coxey good roads
THE COXEY BILL.
! Scott Anderson said he would like to
know something about the CoXey bill,
but Gray said he did not know much
about it, and would, therefore, call
upon Mr.. Lawrence to explain.
Mr.. Lawrence then explained Coxey's
noted scheme of having the govern
ment issue S50O0OO,OOG OF legal tender
notes to build roads with, in order to
furnish employment to the people.
S. H. 3. Smith moved that Gray's
resolution be added to the platform,
but several objected for various rea-
sons.
Warren Foster declared that while
CoXey was a good man, there was
certain stigma attached to him which
could not be overlooked and he, there
fore. thought it unwise to incorporate
Coxey's name in the platform.
Scott Anderson said it was better to
use syrup than vinegar when catching
flies. I'VE want to catch votes" he
said, land we don't want TO be branded
as CoXeyites''
After some further discussion, the
proposition TO add the resolution to the
platform was defeated, and another
vote taken. adopting the resolution in
separate form.
The chair then announced the NOM
ination of candidate for congress the
next order of business, and Scott An
derson, in neat speech, nominated
Warren Foster.
S. S. Smith of Ogden nominated Nat
Ward Fitz-Gerald, but that gentleman
declined, on the grounds that he was
yet a comparative stranger among the
people of this state, and, further. be-
cause his old friends in West Virginia,
where on several occasions he served
as his party's Standard bearer, would
have it to say that he came to Utah
for the purpose of running for con-

MIRRORS FOR sEARCHLIGHTs.
important for the Detection of tho
Elusive Torpedo Boat.

From the Time Herald
The strength of the Spanish navy in
torpedo boats makes it necessary that
all United States vessels and forts shall
be provided with searChlights, and it
is found that it is no easy matter to
purchase a sufficient number of search
lights in an emergency. A large num-
ber of the finest searChlight mirrors
have been bought, but an adequate
supply of them cannot be had. Hav-
ing mirrors the electric companies
could turn out the lights in a brief
time.
The mirror is an essential part of the
light, and it's manufacture is a deli
cate operation which needs care and
time to finish il successfully. 1t is not
an ordinary reflector, which may be
cast and nodded, but has to be ground
accurately and highly polished. 1t is
really concave lens, backed by sill
geT and hardened vulcanite, Machines
for grinding the reflectors have been
made which facilitate the work, but it
REQUIRES about a week to make a salts
factory mirror.
The glass is purchased nodded into
shape, and the machines are put to
work on this and the surfaces are
ground to the requisite curve. After
grinding and polishing the mirror is
tested, and when it Is satisfactory the
silver back is put on by electrolysis
and this back is covered by an Opaque
| substance, generally vulCanitc.
