OREGON SHORT LINE RUMORs

Although it was stated at the time
the stockholders of the Union Pacific
and Oregon Short Line held their an
nual meeting in this city and elected
boards Of directors, that there would
be no removal of the headquarters of
the latter road, and that the ogden
gateway would not be closed, there
have been persistent rumors to the
contrary, so persistent that many have
thought there must be some foundation
for them.
knowing what deep interest our citi-
zens take IN these questions. We have
taken pains to ascertain whether there
is any foundation for these rumors. 1t
can be definitely stated that there is no
foundation for them: that the head
quarters Of the Oregon Short Line will
remain in this city. and that the Ogden
gateway viii not be closed.
The authority FOR this statement is
the best. and is unimoeachable.

ITS ASIATIC METHODS.

The Republican organ deliberately
cuts a paragraph in two, making it
appear that The Herald had accused
the state board of equalization of rails
ing values from partisan motives.
Only desperation would prompt our
goldbug contemporary to omit the first
part of the sentence, which was as fol-
lows:
This was not party action"
The state board of equalization is ap-
pointed by a Republican governor, al
though the law compels the recognition
of both parties.
But the organ tried to convey an i'm
preston that to partisanship had been
assigned this raise. when it wilFully
suppressed the words. This was not
a party action"

The Boston Herald thinks the most
remarkable feature of the big peace
comforting of the degree of Ii. D. on
President Mckinley by the Chicago
university; that it's q queer occasion
for that sort of proceeding, but there
doesn't appear to be any help for it.
Perhaps the president accepted it for
peaces sake, just as he would have
taken a pull at a peace pipe had it
been offered him. And then our Boston
contemporary should remember that
things are not quite so CONNIE il
faut" in Chicago as they are in Bos-
ton

MKINLEY WAS ELECTED
BY A STUFFED BALLOT

Chicago there were 1900 more votes re-
turned than were cast. In the city of
Springfield. Ills, the registration was so
large as to attract attention, yet. on
election day in one precinct alone lS3
votes, nearly all negroes, were sworn ia
that were not on the registration list. Six
months after the election, full and COM
plete school census was made in Spring
field and 1t was found that 1.Se0 more
votes were cast in that city in 1895 than
there We're male voters over q years of
age. The Republican vote in Illinois in
1896 was increased over that in 1892 by %
per cent. in Maryland IS per cent. in
Wisconsin So per cent, and in Minnesota 81
per cent. In Kentucky the Republicans
increased their vote g. per cent. While
Cleveland carried the state by 10000 and
Bryan. endorsed by the Populists, received
$1,000 more votes than Cleveland, the
state was counted for Mckinley.
No greater crime can be committed in
a free country than a crime against the
ballot box. The gold standard will not
hesitate at anything and the willing in
strument today of the gold standard is
the Republican party. ] ask you, nay
more. [ appeal to you to rally TO the
support of Democracy.

plotting the injury of Democracy.
There, is a deep-seated prejudice which
crops out unexpectedly prejudice
against everything it ever hated.
Any combination to beat the Demo-
Gratis is its secret wish or its open
VOW.
1t was too much mixed up in the dis
tribution of federal patronage last
year to make Utah Democrats very
friendly to its plan of fusion.
Besides. men who were ready to EN-
dorse and applaud McKinley's policies"
couldn't have been very anxious to
fuse for silver anyhow.
The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1898-10-23
WHY FUSION FAILED.

The failure OF fusion in Utah is used
daily by the Republican organ as an
excuse for its return to the Hanna Or
ganization and endorsement of a Nc
Kinleyite for congress.
1t delights in saving that Chairman
Jones and Mr.. Bryan favored fusion,
which was rejected by the Democrats
of this state.
Utah Democrats have learned from
bitter experience what. possibly,
Messrs. Bryan and Jones didn't know
that the Republican organ and what
