Gratis of your state went to Chicago to
oppose the platform which was adopt
ed. Unless the party in New York ex-
poets to repeat this eXperimenSin 1900,
it should lose no time in taking firm
stand upon the Chicago platform. In
urging this course upon Tammany ana
the Democracy OF New York, ought
to suggest that the party in New York
has something at stake. as well as the
party in the nation.
'"Tammany needs the Democracy of
the nation as much as the national
party needs Tammany. and Tammany
should recognize this fact. Democratic
principles have too firm a hold upon
the plain people TO give the party in
any section any promise of success by
abandoning them. Democracy was de-
fined at Chicago, and the definition is
so satisfactory that no material change
will be made in that definition for years
20 come 1 hope the New York Demo-
Gratis, for their good, as we'll as for the
good of the party and country at large,
will speedily bring themselves within
the definition by giving an unqualified
endorsement of the Chicago platform.

lection of a United States senator; and
Whereas, Having ourselves suffered
the humiliation Of factional strife in
our ranke, and untold ignominy, in
consequence in mass assembly do
hereby memorialize your honorable

THAT it will be to the everlasting
reproach of the Democrats of Utah,
and a blow to those great and glorious
principles for which the Democratic
party is making such a fight, under
the leadership of our honored leader
and champion, William j. Bryan, if the
legislature of Utah fails of its purpose
in electing a successor to Senator
Cannon.
That we exhort the Democrats of
the Utah legislature to set aside the
personal prejudices which are prolong-
ing this factionaI strife, and fulfill the
mission for which they We're elected;
and that we especially petition and
memorialiZe the minority Democrats of
the majority party to be true to the
Democracy and end this senatorial
strife by casting their lot with their
party majority.
"Hoping your honorable body will
appreciate the true spirit OF this me-
mortal. animated by a desire for the
success of the principles which join US
in brotherly warfare against the cross

APPEAL IN THE INTEREST OF

Wyoming Democrats Urge the Dem

Especial to The Herald.)

Evanston, Wyo., Jan. 2S.-The sena-
tcrial contest in Utah has awakened
much interest in Wyoming, especially
in Uinta county. where, on account of
its close proximity, the daily balloting
for senator has been watched with
eager expectancy by the Democrats,
who fear that the Democrats of Utah
may fall into the well-laid trap of the
goldbugs, and fail, through personal
prejudice, to elect a senator, as oc-
CURED in Wyoming six years ago.
Their increasing interest eliminated
here tonight in a meeting of the lead
ing Democrats, and, after a lengthy
discussion, the adoption of a memorial
to the Utah legislature, which follows:
ITO the Honorable Senate and House
of Representative of the State of
Utah, in Joint Session Convened,

but it must be with the understanding
that I shall not be restricted as to the

the answer which follows.

the Democratic club, in rider that he

clares that New York Democrats should
show their hands or accept the aoslll-
