THEY POINT TOWARD UTAH.

Eastern goldbugs are felicitating
themselves over their gains in western
states, including Utah. The New York
Post, which advocated the election of
Republican congressman in every dis
trict of the United States, and claimed
that the interests of sound money" or
gold monometallism, demanded Repub-
lican success this year as much as
those interests called for the election
of Mckinley and Hobart two years ago,
is particularly joyful
The day after the election the Post,
reviewing the returns, said:
Enough is known to show that the
trans Missouri states are no longer
solid for silver, while the Pacific states
now show handsome majority for
sound money!
Sound money organ, and an admins
tration adherent, congratulates the
president upon the vindication given
his financial policy and his currency re-
form proposition, even in the silver
stronghold of the vest
The Post voices the sentiments Of
goldbugs everywhere when it says that
the gains made by the Republicans in
Nebraska, Colorado, Utah and Califor-
MIA are exceedingly cheering to the
friends of sound money; they add re-
markable force to the other indications
that have been observed since congress
adjourned, and since the close of the
war, that the silver craze is on the
wane in those parts of the country
where it took its rise, and where it has
hitherto been strongest"
The election OF the Republican candi-
date for congress in Utah would have
emphasized this opinion of the gold
standard people. But there is every
reason to believe that all those Repub-
Leans who are swayed by partisan
prejudice instead of principle, have
now found their way back into the gold
camp, where they rightfully belong,
and that, what appears to be a goldbug
gain, is really a reclam2t ton of their
own.
The party, local or national, that en-
dorses and applauds McKinley's poll
cies is a goldbug organization, and
every word it utters in behalf of silver
coinage is a confession of it's own hy-
pocrisy and criminal disregard of what
is known to be for the best interests
of the people and the nation.

agitation at home which averts foreign
Investment and discourages commerce.
The alarm it manifests at the bare
mention Of free coinage is shared by
every true Republican. But the Mail
and Express and all the other organs
of the reunited Republican party are
more concerned over the Danger to the
money lenders and the bond buyers and
the wealth gatherers of the east, whose
profits would be reduced under bimetal-
lism. than they are concerned over the
welfare of the masses of the American
people.

LONDON ON A DEWEY NIGHT.
(Chicago News.l

1t was reserved for Curtis Durham in
his new book, THE Casino Girl in Lon
don" to rescue from oblivion one of the
most significant of all the recent demon
STATIONS of friendship moving from Eng
land to America-the most significant, in
deed, for being neither official nor pre-
medttated. 1t was brought out through
the performances given in London by a
New ork theatrical company with an
American play which had made so big
hit in New York that it was regarded as
worth trying ON in the English metropolis.
1t was accordingly taken abroad intact,
and scored something of a success from
the beginning-quite enough to warrant
its staying on the stage for a run. But
upon one particular night the applause,
which had been none too demOnstratiVe
of a sudden rose to positive enthusiasm.
It's sound came in behind the scenes when
the curtain fell on the first act. and even
penetrated through the closed doors of
one OF the dressing rooms The actress
occupying it came out, ready for her
entrance upon the stage at the rise of the
curtain again, and could then plainly hear
the cheering from the house, fresh VOL
leys being brought on every now and
then by a shrill voice. evidently from the
gallery, shouting:
Queen!'
To hear America saluted with such an
outburst was new to the American act
reSseS, most of them nomesick at heart
and they wondered. So, when the second
act began, the hand-clapping and cheers
called out by nothing which had not been
on the stage from the opening of the
season, were nothing short of puZzing to
the performers. They dearly loved APP
probation, but it was only too evident
here that it was something outside of
their own lines and actions which was
bringing down the house. When the
actress referred to. for example. made
her appearance. she was unanimously
greeted and her bowling received all sorts
of plaudits. made more profuse when that
same Shrill voice sent out its interna-
tional appeal from the gallery:
"Hooray for Uncle Sam! God save the
queenr'
From top to bottom the theatre was
yelling with palpable delight, the dis
tinguished personages in the boxes join
ing the galleries III the noise. All through
the act these demonstrations went on
and the performers grew more and more
pretty girls in the uniform of the Ameri-
can sailor had to march in and take the
front of the stage. This being done, there
entered from opposite sides the Stars
and Stripes and the Union Jack, borne by
American sailor girls. At this the house
rose to its feet and fairly howled with
delight while the orchestra struck up

tain fell leaving a party of American
actresses behind it who were CROWNS

can listen to such greeting to ones flag
without being moved.
An English nobelman who had the run
of the house came on the stage at that
moment and asked the performers how
they liked England that night They
confessed gladly that they all loved it
and, American fashion. made little jokes
to conceal their very real Sratitude-it is

WHEN THE REGIMENT CAME
BACK.

ella Wheeler Wilcox, Harper's Weekly)
All the uniforms were blue, all the swords
and rifles new,
When the regiment went marching
down the street
All the men were hale and strong as they
proudly moved along
Through the cheers that drowned the
music of their feet.
Oh, the music of their feet keeping time
10 drums that beat
oh, the glitter and the splendor of the
sight;
AS with swords and rifles new, and in
uniforms of blue,
The regiment went marching to the
fight.
When the regiment came back all the
guns and swords were black,
And the uniforms had faded into gray
And the faces of the men who marched
through that street again
Seemed like faces of the dead who lose
their way.
For the dead who lose their way cannot
look more gaunt or gray
Oh, the sorrow and the anguish of the
sight
Oh the. weary tagging feet out of step
with drums that beat,
When the regiment came marching from
the fight,

SOME GOOD, SHORT STORIES
Richard H. Davis Medals.
(Chicago Journall


Richard Harding Davis was return
ing from the Greeco-Turkish war, and
had reached London. There he was en-
tertained by the Englishmen with their
| characteristic hospitality
At all the functions where he ap-
peared the front of his coat was scarce
~ visible on account of the numberless
medals with which it was covered. Nat
Goodwin says that every time he ac-
commodated some Turk with a cigar
cite he was given a medal He evil
IDENTIFY distributed a large number Of
cigarettes.
One. evening Davis was entertained at
| a London club at which Sir Henry
Irving was present. He wore all his
medals, even pulling out of his trunk
few old ones, so as to make a greater
showing.
Sir Henry saw the young American
and became particularly interested in
the display of metal and ribbon uDon
the front of his coat and vest He kept
cycling the collection, and finally begged
to be introduced to the wearer. The
two were brought together.
Sir Henry" said the man who was
performing the ceremony, this is Mr..
Richard Harding Davis. the brilliant
young American writer"
"Chawmed," said Sir Henry. This re-
mark was spoken rather absent-mind-
eddy, for the great actors attention was
riveted on the medals.
Davis noticed this with evident pride.
Sir Henry looked them all over with
great interest. Finally he fingered one,
and took Davis somewhat aback by in
| quiring, casually, with his peculiar
drawI:
You get those at schooI?"

RESULTS OF THE WAR.

Expressions of friendly interest and
fraternal feeling between this country
and Great Britain are becoming so
numerous and cordial on both sides
that there is no longer any doubt about
the sincerity and popularity of the
sentiment
This is as it should be, and as it
would have been for years but for two
things: One was the tendency of
Fourth Of July orators for a century
following the Declaration of Independ-
ence to infame the public mind by in
Weighing against British tyranny and
oppression, and growing over the two
wars with Britain and the triumphs of
American arms, which really were
worth mentioning in patriotic speeches.
But it all went TO make the schoolboys
of this country regard England as
national Bumblebore, whose defeat was
compassed by the American giant
killer.
About the time this feeling began to
die out On this side of the water, and
the consequent resentment on the other
side was on the decline, the Republican
party picked UP the flaming sword of
international antipathy and began to
flourish it wildly for campaign effect.
The people Of the United States We're
appealed to in the name of patriotism
to vote for the party Of protection in
order to make Great Britain feel bad.
The chief value of a high tariff, -ac-
cording to these agitators, was to an
noy some foreign power which was
represented as doing very little besides
hanging around the bulletin boards,
watching for election returns from this
republic British flags were scattered
broadcast over the land as campaign
documents, and voters were admon-
ished that "a vote for Democracy is a
vote for Great Britain"
The same dodge was worked again
this year, except that the name Of
Spain was substituted for that of Great
Britain.
But the passions of the people were
long infiamed in this way by the dem
agogues, mutual feelings of hatred and
distrust were engendered and the latent
sentiments of good will We're only al
lowed to assert themselves when Re
publicans found another bugaboo for
voters in the shape of Spain. This year
they told how Spaniards would receive
the news and how they would tear
their hair in the event of Republican
success at the polls. Great Britain was
not required in the business this time,
and the rapid growth of kindred SYM
pathy and affection between the Anglo
Saxon nations proves that all the peo-
pie ever really needed was a better
understanding of each other; and it
exposes the dishonesty of Republican
campaign methods.
Two excellent results have been OBJ
tanned from the war with Spain, great
er than all the fruits of conquest, more
important to this republic than all the
glory, and the experience, and the
prestige, and the islands gained by war.
1t is the closer relationship between the
sections of this country, the welding of
the north and south, the clasping Of
the hands of east and west 1t is the
better understanding between the An
glo-Saxon nations, the friendship which
has been allowed to ripen through the
war, between this country and Great
Britain-a tie which, it is hoped, will
never be broken.

Thev Kissed the Shells For Inck-

Much has been written about the ac-
ton of men in the fleet during the
battle of Santiago. One story Of the
action of the Brooklyn's crew was told
the other day that illustrates the way
the men below decks worked during
battle. In the ammunition room of the
Brooklyn they were stripped to the
buff. There must be nothing in the
magazine that is liable to cause fric-
ton and a spark. The men could hear
the shots of the Spaniards and knew
when the ship was struck. They could
hear the roar of their own guns, but
could not see anything. When the six
inch guns were working at their hot
test and the men We're passing shells
to the hoist there was a slight pause.
Then the shells came on deck regularly
again. When the engagement was end
ed and the stark-naked gang came on
deck to see the CristObal COlOn's finish,
somebody asked: What was that wait
about?"
"Oh, those Indians" said Lee petty
officer, after they had creased the nose
of the shell somebody said everybody
must kiss it for luck, and we did. That
caused the wait of half q minute. After
that they kissed every shell. After the
first few shots no shell left that room
in the fight without the gang hugging
it, telling it to go out and do it's work.
The crowd talked to the shells as if
they were human. The six-inch shells
of the Brooklyn did great work. The
boys believe it was the send-off they
got in the ammunition room that helped
to do it"

New York state was one of the four
cited in Utah during the late campaign
as an evidence that some Democratic
local organizations were for gold. The
Commercial Advertiser, which always
talks to Republicans as a father talks
to his family, stated this fact on cleo
ton day: "All Democratic candidates
for congress in New York City can be
relied upon to vote for free silver, and
gold Democrats who vote for them vote
with their eyes open. Their votes may
fix the majority in the next house
either for or against honest (gold)
money"

This is the wav the Colorado papers
dwell in unity. The quotation is from
the Searchlight, published at Denver:
1.-THE furnishing editorial hyena who is
hired by Tom Patterson to write saucy
things about the Searchlight would bet
ter direct his prolapsed intellect upon
some less formidable object than this
publication. The News is the last sick
buzzard on the dunghili of Colorado
Democracy, and its starving staff of
mental deformities are incapable of
creating even faint ripple upon the
great ocean of intelligence which they
nauseate with every issue of that
scoundrelly contrived imposition upon
society which they think is a news
paper"

Martell Merry makers in the musical
farce comedy, wild Oats" Briefly,
the verdict may be set down that the
comedy was about as raw as they are
written, but that the speciality acts
saved it. The piece is not worth de-
scribing. but the adjuncts, notably
the bicycling of the Martells, was
little short of wonderful and which got
all the applause it deserved. Another
clever speciality bit was 1.-The resonator

The war views were also applauded, as
