ment exhibited by Gov. Tanner in

of preparations has already caused

to make capital for the governor

from Havana. has written an article
for the June number of McClure's
magazine, giving general review of
recent Spanish rule in Cuba as it pre-
sented itself to him in his own obser-
vations. experiences and impressions
and in his official labors as consul
general at Havana. The article will
be very fully illustrated from. special
photographs, most of them hitherto
unpublished.

ALMA'S BUSINESS SENSE.

The Provo Enquirer, as loyal adj
ministration organ, as a defender of
the financial policy of the national Re
publican party, is proud of Candidate
Eldredge. HE will never break ranks
with his party" it says. And the En-
quirer company, having as its vice
president, John Henry Smith, ought to
know Alma Eldredge fairly well.
The Enquirer repeats the words Mr..
Eldredge wrote across his order for
goods in 1896. as follows:
eff Mckinley is elected, ship these
goods; if Bryan is elected, 1 don't
want them"
This meets the unqualified endorse
ment of the Enquirer, which says:
THAT shows the good business sense
of the Republican candidate. If Bry-
an had been elected, the business of
the country would have been terribly
upset, for the east especially, and
therefrom the west would have been
anic-stricken."
Doubtless Arthur Brown, Glen Mil
Ter, Arthur Thomas, Judge Goodwin,
Mark Hanna, and all the other good
silver men" who are supporting Mr..
Eldredge concur with the Provo Nc
Kinley organ in it's approval of Mr..
Eldredge's business sense"

LEFT THE TRACK.

The surrender of the Republicans of
Utah to the cause of gold monometal-
lism has been complete. On the silver
gang-plank they walked aboard the
Hanna ship, and now they swallow
the st. Louis platform, gold and all,
and applaud the policies Of President
Mckinley.
One of the last to get aboard was
Edward NJ. Allison of Ogden, the rec
ognized head of the so-called silver
Republican organization of Weber
county, the only place in Utah where
such an organization is supposed to be
extant. He has been Senator Cannon's
first lieutenant through the present
campaign, but the other evening he
presided at a regular Republican
meeting in Ogden, where the name Of
Senator Cannon was assailed and his
motives for leaving the st. Louis con-
vention impugned.
Mr.. Allison has expressed his regrets
at having supported Bryan two years
ago. and suffers the keen remorse that
a reconstructed goldbug should feel.
The "humanized steam engine" of
the Junction City has apparently had
its lever reversed. 1t has also jumped
the track of two metallic rails, and will
henceforth run upon one rail.

JOHN HENRYs CANDIDACY.

Now that John Henry Smith has
been nominated. that his candidacy for
the United States senate has been for
mally announced. there is no excuse for
the silence of those patriots who are
so anxious to serve the state.
As every one knows, who knows any
thing about the matter at all, the Hon.
John Henry is involved in the same So
cial system that the Tribune condemns
and the governor deplores.
Here is another opportunity for his
excellency to make an exhibition of his
patriotism. There will be a Demo-
cratic meeting in the theatre this even
ing. If the governor be not partisan
and only a patriot, let him get permits
sion to read his imDromptu remarks.
Let him warn the people against voting
for Republican candidates for the leg
islature. Let him tell that a vote for a
Republican legislative candidate is a
vote for John Henry Smith, and, there
fore, vote against Utah
This is the governors chance to show
whether he is a partisan or a patriot.
If he really wants peace" and is not
merely working for the election of a
goldbug congressman, let the governor
speak up.
The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1898-11-07
THE sHRIEvALTY CANDIDATE.

Every Democrat in Salt Lake county
should vote for John Howells for sher-
if. He will make f1rst-class officer
honest, active and efficient. He is the
choice of his party for the position and
should have his party's support.
Mr.. Howells has been singled out for
special commentator NOT because he
is more worthy of it than other candi-
dates on the Democratic ticket, but for
the good and sufficient reason that an
attempt is being made to defeat Mr..
Howells by Mr.. Lewis, the present
sheriff, a man who has been honored
by his party far beyond his deserts, as
his attempt to defeat the present
shrievalty candidate shows. His aim
seems to be to return evil for good.
We do not believe that the spiteful
and contemplate course of Sheriff
Lewis win result in the loss of any
votes to Mr.. Howells; it certainly
should not, but special attention is
called TO it that Democratic voters may
rebuke it and be warned against aiding
in the furtherance of this nefarious
business.
John Howells is the Democratic can

THE TRUE lNeRATEs.

The Tribune has had a great deal to
say about "ingratitude" and the man
ner in which the silver senators who
bolted the gold convention at St. Louis
have since been treated. Editor Good
win. in his speech at the theatre the
other evening, urged this as an excuse
for the Tribunes return to the Hanna
organization.
Let, US see where this charge of in
gratitude lies. When the Republicans
of Utah assembled in state convention
this year they constructed a platform
which they knew Senator Cannon could
not stand upon, and adopted resolutions
the manifest purpose of which was to
prevent the senator from working with
the party in this campaign.
What sort os self-assurance must a
so-called silver Republican have who
complains of an alleged slight to his
acknowledged party leader, when he
has sanctioned a deliberate affront Of
Tered to the same man?
There is a tone of hypocrisy in this
whine about ''ingratitude," coming. as
it does. from men who have turned
their backs upon free silver and its
champions, to join in applauding Nc
Kinley's policies and advocating the
election of McKinleyites to the legis-
lature and to congress.

A HowLiNe SUCCESS.

AS a political cat's-paw for the pull
ing of old chestnuts out OF the fires of
prejudice, our governor is a bowling
success.
He performs this function, too, with
a servility that would seem to justify
the Tribune's intimation that from
childhood he had been trained to Ash
attic methods"
It is hard to understand how any
man, protesting independence. could
give his public approval to a line of
campaigning that reflects upon his own
family ties. and his own honor as an
executive sworn to enforce the laws
It is hard to understand how any
man, protesting honesty of purpose,
can assail the character or question
the political rights of one to whom he
voluntarily gave a glowing testimonial
Of high character and great ability
and for whose political preferment he
but recently expressed a fervent hope.
IS it the actor cropping out at last?
Has this weakness been suppressed un-
til it gushes forth in the last days of
this campaign like the eruption of a
volcano?
There is the cooling of the lover in the
lines of his first letter, the whips and
scorns" of rage and envy in his sec
ond. tone of childish incoherence
running through it all Equally at
home in comedy or in tragedy, in a
scene from Damon and Pythias' or
one from "Richard H. our actor
governor tries to play the part as
signed him.
