THE KAISER WILL NOT INTER
FERE.

In spite of the kaiser's repeated as
surances of respectful consideration for
this government, there seems to be a
general feeling of apprehension con-
corning the assembling of German ships
in Manila bay, and many conservative
people are still suspicious of his inten-

But there are reasons why his dis
Chalmers should be given full credence
In the first place, ne is entitled to some
confidence, because ne occupies posi-
ton which requires honor to hold sue
cessfully, and because the German peo-
pie. whatever else may be said against
them, are proverbially honest.
In the second place, a combination of
circumstances, oyer which the cratic
and ambitious young ruler has no con-
troll, render bis Interference in our Phil
ippine affair extremely improbable. The
German fleet at Manila, whose fresence
so many feel inclined to view with
alarm, is Only there by British suffer-
ance. It was compelled to ask the in
diligence of Great Britain several times
in order to make the voyage necessary
to take it to Chinese waters. Germany

FATAL ACCIDENT TO ToRREY,s

The accident, at Tupelo, Miss, to the
train bearing Colonel Torrey's regiment
of cavalry to Jacksonville was a most
lamentable affair. Four brave men go
ing to fight for their country were
killed, with no chance to save their
lives. while large number were more
or less seriously injured. Colonel Tor
rey was injured, but not seriously, and
his. escape from death is miraculous
Lieutenant Colonel Cannon was in the
Pullman with Colonel Torrey, but was
uninjured. There are no Utah boys
among the dead or injured, and for
their preservation the people of the
state will be thankful; for the men from
cur sister state of Wyoming who were
killed or injured, they feel the deepest
sorrow.
The train bearing this regiment seems
fated. AT st. Joseph. Mo-, it met wits
an accident, but fortunately no one was
seriously hurt. That men should be
killed in a railroad accident when they
are going to fight for their country
makes it doubly sad and distressing.
There is some gross carelessness some
where on the part of the railroad men,
and if possible it should be located.
Every one viii pray that there NAV
be no more accidents befall Torreys
rough riders. Their lives are too prec-
ious to be wantonly sacrificed.

STATE PRESS COMMENT.

Salina Press: Joseph F. Smith and
other church dignitarfes deplore the fact
that so many of the young people of Zion
spend Sunday at Saltair and other ques-
tionable places of amusement instead Of
attending services at the tabernacle. If
we have not been misinformed, Saltair is
a Mormon institution, whose stockholders
are wealthy church officials. There's no
use in kicking. If the young people per-
sist in chasing after the devil at Saltair,

JONATHAN's TEMPTATION.

A Washington special to the San
Francisco Examiner says that in view
of many false theories existent and
misleading stories in circulation rela-
tive to the presidents colonial policy,
the following statements from "a high
authority as to the aims and pur-
poses of the administration will prove
of great interest:
First-The administration intends to
establish a protectorate over Cuba-a
species of protectorate which involves
a retention. of a competent military
force in the island and constant SUI

Ubiquity itself. its lair.

At eve it fits like ON nous ghost,

It's foundered. wrecked, twas never

To weakness of panada.

A menace and a mockery,

A New York correspondent tells this:
What's in a name? The hero of the
Merrimac has made the name Of Hob
son famous, and even changed the
meaning of the time honored phrase,
"Hobson's choice Mrs. Mary Hobson,
a poor widow of New York, is no rel
alive of the young hero but she has
found that it is an advantage to bear
the same name. Today she was ar
raigned before Justice Mexican in dis
possess proceedings -Hobson is a
name to be respected" said the judge,
and for that reason gave the woman a
respite until Thursday in which to pay
rent or move.

COMMENTS OF THE PRESS.

Louisville Courler-Journal: The Courier
journal does not desire to see our armies
sent 10 Ccba or elsewhere without ade-
quate preparation, nor TO see them go in
numbers so small as to invite defeat. But

Negligence. We had some two months of
preparation before the war broke out
during which We bought ships, guns
ammunition, etc. 1t VIII soon have been
two months since hostilities commenced
and yet the army is said to be unequal
to the occasion.
Chicago Record The present war was
undertaken with no desire for territorial
ACKNOWLEDGEMENT, but was entered upon
from sense of responsibility to humanity
and civilization. coupled with a self-in-
terest in putting an end to a condition of
things that was continual source of
disturbance to our own commercial and
political welfare. 1t IS this same sense
of responsibility and not a desire for
territorial ACKNOWLEDGEMENT that should
continue to direct the policy of the United
States. A spirit of military conquest in
our people is above all things to be de-
Drecatea.

yield to the pressure of European ma

Spanish troops in Cuba. yet the insurg-
ents under Aguinaldo are making mince-
meat of them. Were that chieftain an
American general this country would be
ringing with his fame, and his chances of

siderably better than those of Miles. Sure
ly our soldiers can fight as we'll as the

Chicago Record: The activity of the in
surgents speaks well for their ability as
soldiers. The humane methods of war
fare adopted by the insurgent leaders also
appear TO be highly commendable. They
seem to look to the United States as the
champion of liberty and as the great pro-
tector to help them set up a republican
government of their own. There are in
dicattons that officials of the American
government and leaders of the Philippine
insurgents have been quietly cooperating
with that end in view

Commercial Advertiser: Senior Aguf-

great elaboration looking to the estab-

the auspices of the United States. General

and humane manner. undertook to carry
on the war on land with decency and
preserve discipline among the insurgent
troops, and after securing possession of

Kansas City Times: From the moment
General Aguinaldo mounted his saddle
down TO the latest reports from Manila
and not only so. but the native race for
the first time in 600 years, feel that the
shackles of their brutal taskmaster are
falling off. Naturally they are full of
enthusiasm and loyalty to the cause of
freedom, and that they are prosecuting
the war close along the Humanitarian in
Structions laid down by Dewey would
seem to show that they are grand enough
of character to forget past wrongs, if only
they may secure a larger measure OF in
dividual liberty and encouragement to en-
gage in business pursuits for themselves
Evidently General Aguinaldo is the right
man in the right place, and that Admiral
Dewey is a good judge of character
