THE WAR AS AN ISSUE,

The Democrats party Of this State

claiming, that while the recent Span
ish war IN itself is not an issue in this
campaign, still the blunders, or per-
haps we might call it, crimindlity OF
the admin,st and war depart
ment can honestly and fairly be called
an issue As to the achievements OF
the American soldiers and sailors In
the war it is only justice to say that
those soldiers, sal Ors and their officers
belonged to all parties aud did not en-.
list as members OF any party, but as
American citizens who love their coun-
try, and that they fought only as Amer
leans, and that their victories are
American victories. When. however,
we consider the treatment of these
same American soldiers and sailors Ia
hospital after the war, we come to a
iii lferent condition. All of the officials
in charge Of these hospitals were Adj
ministration Republicans, and APP
pointed. not because they were Ameri.
cans, but because they were supporters
of Mckinley or his administration and
agents. 1t cannot be charged that the
American people are responsible
for these outrages: nc one can be re-
sponsible but the appointing power,
and that power Is composed of Repub.
licans. The Republican press threaten

satisfied that the people of Utah are
too intelligent to place credence in
any claim that to the Republican party

The local g. o. p. organ is mean
enough TO print an unqualified unlruth
In regard 70 statement alleged to he
made by the wife Of the Democratic
candidate for county clerk. 1t is a
fact which cannot be disputed by the
Enquirer or anyone else that Mr.
Havercamp has invested in business in
Provo over $1,000, which in itself more
than covers the local investment OF the
Enquirer and u large part OF its ticket.
We do not refer to this fact because
any justification of MI. Havercamp is
needed. but simply to show the animus
OF the local &. o. p, organ. In view of
all the facts in the matter of the county
clerk which we have shown aud which
are not disputed, is It not time that
organ 'came down off the perch?"

WHO is RESPONSIBILITY


The Salt Lake Tribune of yesterday
says:
In the Inter Ocean In big scare bead
lines are the words utah has its
woes" Another conflict between the
Gentiles and the MOTmOns." "Polyga-
my Is the issue" "Revival of the
practice branded as open and defiant"
Who is responsible for such libpls
against the people OF Utah2 There is
but one answer and that is, "The Salt
Lake Tribune" The Tribune 10 times
past has repeatedly reiterated It's faith
in the honesty of the Mormon people
and has condemned the innuendoes
cast against the church and its mem
bers. Now to gam simply a partisan
advantage It is willing TO send broad
cast over the country paper filled full
OF the basest insinualons against these
same people. Now simply in vain
attempt to gain the election of an in
competent adherent of Mark Hanna, ii
is willing to use all its power to blast
the reputation of Utah Shame on the

We have said this much to make
clear 10 the people-of Utah that while

The Tribune knows better. Every
where 10 this Union, in practically
every State east and west the silver
cause is recognized by the Democratic
party as the issue in 1898 and as the
coming issue In 1900 In its frantic
efforts to advance the cause of Mark

"PlONEER SILVER PAPER" AND
ITS EDITOR.

For the past three years the Ogden
Standard has been running a headline
on its title page reading Pioneer Silver
Paper of Utah" and many and long
have been the editorial protestations
OF loyalty to bimetallsm. Since the
last visit OF the Standards editor 10
Washington, all OF the silver views OF
that paper have been seen through
Hanna Republican spec'aces. The
Standard editor is now an active Re-
publican worker, aud was one of the
trainers OF the following plank in the
recent Republican platform adopted at
the county convention In Ogden:
BE II further resolved that the candi-
dates for the legislature nominated at
this convention, be and they are here
by instructed TO support no one for the
United States Senate unless he be u
pronounced Republican, sound on pro-
lection, reciprocity aud the free aud
independent coinage Of silver at the
ratio OF 10 TO l, as set forth In this
platform,
We sincerely regret the unfortunate
step taken by number Of our former
associates IN boiling the Republ can
party and In calling themselves silver
Republicans, on the false assumption
that they can thereby more certainly
obtain the free and independent coin
age of silver at the ratio OF 10 to l..
sincerely believing that the result they
seek To obtain can be better aud more
certainly obtained through the ranks of
the Republican party,
On this platform Bill Glasmann. edi-
tor OF the Standard accepted the nom
nation for the State legislature and
yet he still neglects and refuses TO pull
down the lying headline from the
Standards title page. Bill certainly
has one quality which entities him to
place in the front ranks OF Utah Re.
pnolicans, and that Is inconsistency.

A Little Boom in Machetes

Some months ago South street junk
dealer came into possession of 200
machetes of poor steel, considerably rust
ed, and with the cheapest kind Of ham
dies. They lay in big chest near the
door of the shop marked Your choice
for so cents" Few purchaser came. In
the course of time the machetes were rele-
gated to the dim rear. Not until last
week did it occur to the proprietor that
perhaps the war excitement might create
a demand for the articles. He filled UP
a small box with twenty-five or thirty,
and set it out one morning with the origi-
nal sign prefaced by From Cuba" BY
night there wasn't one left. On the NOR
row his windows appeared hung with the
big knives. This time there was a con-
spicuous sign in the windaw. f1anked by
Cuban flags: "Machetes formerly used in
Cuba" To correspond with the eleva-
ton of the articles, the price was also
raised to 81 each, or pair for $1.75. The
demand was lively, so lively that the junk
dealer sent around to other shops to buy
any "machetes'' which they might have.
None were for sale to him a prices which
he was willing to pay. Eager to get the
most profit possible out of his small re-
naming stock. the astute proprietor
raised his price to 50, on the pretext "only
a few left" To a visitor who three
