declare war. A declaration which not
only the distinction of the maine"
was arranged, but liberty and the OPP
portunity of enlightened free govern
ment was extended to an oppressed
and down-trodden people.

doctrine of equal suffrage, and are
proud of that provision Of the Consti-
tuition of the State Of Utah, by which
equal suffrage is guaranteed without
regard to the distinction of sex; and
we declare that that provision Of the
Constitution, and the laws made In
pursuance thereof should be given the
fullest possible effect; and the absolute
right Of women to vote and hold office
should be upheld and maitained.
Ave congratulate the people Of
Utah county, and the Democratic
party therein upon the clean, frugal
and honest administration of the
county government by the officers
elected In 1896. The county govern.
ment has been administered and con-
Quoted In the interest of the citizens
and the taxpayers and for the public
good. We therefore. as the represent

dorse and approve the manner in
which they have discharged their trust
and bespeak for them the sincere graf
itude OF the people of Utah county.

OUR PLATFORM.
Adopted by Utah County Con-

TENDER 7, 1898.
PLATFORM AND RESOLUTIONS.

The Democratic party OF Utah coun-
ty, by its authorized delegates in con-
vention asse mbled, submit the follow.
ing declaration Of principles:
I've reafiirm, and endorse the
Democratic platform adopted by the
National Democratic Convention at
Chicago In 1896, and especially that
portion of said platform which declared
Ia favor of the free and unlimited
coinage of silver equal with gold at
the ratio of 10 to |. The warfare be-
tween the money power Of the world
and the masses Of humanity is still on.
the issue is as important now, and
more important than | + was in 1895. 1t
is aud must continue to be conflict
between grinding monopolies on the
one hand and the down-trodden masses
on the other, until, by the mighty
voice of the people at the ballot box, it
shall have been settled, aud settled
right. This is the paramount issue
before the people. 1t has hitherto
been in the State Of Utah question
upon which all of the political parties
agreed. Recently, however, by the
use OF juggling words and meaningless
terms, calculated only to obscure the
vital question and befog the issue, the
Republicans of Utah, with many hon.
orable exceptions. in violation of their
solemn pledges and promises to the
people, have taken backward step in
the progress of the fight until it has
become impossible to regard them any
longer in any other light than as the
friends Of gold and enemies of silver.
The only true friends Of any question
are those who fight for It's triumph,
and fight to win. Such is the attitude
of the Democratic party towards the
free and unlimited coinage of silver
equal with gold as . money of ultimate
redemption.

TIE DEVIL AND HOLY WATER.

To the Editor ofthe AIe~aadria Gazette:
The devil is said to hate holy water, but
his last attempt to kill it with carbolic acid
does not seem to have been a success. The
woman who exhibited her acid zeal probably
thought she believed n prayer, and yet, in
the opinion OF those who use them, blessed
material substances become concrete prayer.
Ten lines will, am sure, be allowed by the
Gazette to explsiu to folks Who believe in the
eeScacy If prayer that the simple water which
this woman hated so much was but an expan-
sion of her idea of prayer. When the minis
ter announced that "a man going to sea-bl'
wife desires the prayers q. this congregation,
no praving hrisisu doubted that such pray
or might re made-nor that prayer might be
proper for sill going on particular ship even
for oil who go down 70 the sea in ships. So
prayer may 6e msds thst sll who use certain
water may be blessed. This IN few words,
is the conservation of holy water. Why should
any evangelical Christian hate It
