VERY POOR TASTE.

We do not know that Admiral Schley's
attention was called to the caricatures
of himself in a near contemporary, put
the residents of the city who noticed
them remarked the execrable taste DIS
played in printing them.
Cartoons are all right in their place.
like everything else. but when they are
employed for the purpose of ridicuiins
a distinguished guest whom all citizens
delight to honor, the talent employed
on them is worse than wasted.
It is the sort of humor that manifests
itself in the small boy who shoots peas
through an open window at his fathers
guests. No one enjoys it so much as
the small boy. And, while no one is
authorized or disposed to interview our
neighbor in the woodshed after the de-
parture of the visitor, a fate which usu-
ally overtakes the small boy offender,
the impression remains that it was OPP
pressively and extensively unhappy in
it's pictorial jests.
We would not for the world detract
from the artistic merit of the cuts, for
the caricatures were clever enough. But
the taste in printing them upon such
an occasion and under such circum-
stances was abominable.

LET THEM DELIBERATE.

In explanation of General Otis's re-
fusal to consider any of the many peace
proposals submitted to him by the lead
ers of the Filipino army fear is ex-
pressed that all the natives want is to
gain time. This may be true, but why
should they ask for an armistice?
The rainy season has begun, and in a
few days it will be utterly impossible
to pursue the insurgents into the inter
Tor, to move or concentrate troops for
offensive operations.
The Baltimore American, an admins
tration organ, points out this difficulty.
and says:
The entire surface Ct the island OF
Luzor will be a mass of sticky mud
and hostilities on any scale of import
ance will be suspended for five or six
months. With the arrival of constant
rain, these gallant soldiers viii have to
suspend their operations and with
draw. They might as well try to walk
on the water as to attempt to pillow
through the pasty mud and hope to Sc
cure their supplies of food and ammu-
milton. The rainy season will give the
Filipinos time for recuperation and re-
Election"
Then why not receive Aguinaldo's
emissaries as Indian chiefs would be
received in the case of an uprising on
this continent? The climate the
weather, the soil. the roads will unite
to give them all the rest they want.
Why not give ii to them as a conces-
sion, as an evidence of that generosity
we have told them so often about and
shown them so little of. since in their
natural ignorance. the islanders began
to fight this great power of the world?
Let their congress assemble. Let it
have time TO deliberate. Reflection can
only convince the Filipinos of the
hopelessness of their struggle. Besides,
General Otis has given out that he
never can round up the natives with
the army he has at his command-al-
most double the size of the regular
army for the last quarter of a century
in spite Of the fact that our matchless
Pacific squadron has Luzon surround
ed This being true, nothing will be
lost 10 the American cause by agreeing
TO an armistice until the Filipinos have
a chance to assemble their congress.

MEMORIAL DAY.

While thoughts of Valor and patriot
ism have power to stir the souls of
American boys and girls; while the sor-
rows of suffering humanity continue to
touch the hearts and enlist the SYM
pathies of the women of the republic,
and the men are generous and gallant
enough to risk their lives for the sake
of the oppressed, there IS no danger of
the real meaning of Memorial day be-
ing forgotten
This day has been set apart in honor
of the nations heroic dead-those who
fought for the establishment of the
government and those who fought for
its preservation; those who defended
American rights upon the sea, and
those who invaded a sister republic to
avenge a wrong; those who went TO
tropical islands to end the bloodshed
and cruelty o. Spanish tyranny, and all
the dead who yielded up their lives, or
a portion of their time, in the dis
charge of patriotic obligations in war.
The lesson of the day is to honor
these departed heroes, who answered
the bugle call to duty and placed their
upon the altar of their country. 10y
atty. love Of country and reverence are
taught by the memories and emotions
the day viii ever waken.
AS the years roll by, the silent army
of the dead is growing and the ranks
of the living were getting thinner until
the recent war with Spain. Both have
been recruited since; the dead from
the bloody hill of San Juan and the
sickly swanps of Luzon, from field of
carnage and camp of disease; while to
the living ranks are added the heroes
who have returned in safety, some of
them wrecks of their former selves, and
those who are still fighting under a
tropic sun in another hemisphere.
This is a day to recall the heroic
struggles of the colonists for their in
dependence from a foreign power; it is
a day to think of the dangers our vol
unteers are Drawing in the Philippines;
a day to recount the experiences of the
war of the rebellion; Il day to celebrate
because at last, through fighting d
common foe, when the north and south
marched shoulder to shoulder, they
stand today above the Wondering
forms of Union heroes and confederate
veterans, distributing tributes of love
and forgiveness upon all the graves
alike.
No other land has such a holiday as
this. Other countries celebrate their
victories. We honor the fallen, and the
nation pays its respects to all the sol
der dead. IN this country we COM
memorate a victory and give our SYM
pathies to the vanquished. who fell in
q mistaken cause. And We commem-
crate the reconciliation of the sections.
which. more than any feat of arms. al
tests the superiority of American man
hood and the excellence Of free institu-
tions.
Memorial day is not time of hilar-
ity, nor yet Of mourning. It is a day
of sweet and peaceful meditation,
day OF high ideals, of patriotic thoughts
and noble impulses.

OUR NEIGHBOURS WISH.

Why does our morning contemporary
waste so much inyective on the tribune,
because of its position on silver? Its own
skirts are clean. are they not? Why does
ii not make its appeal directly to silver
Republicans in this region?-Tribune-
Our neighbor follows the foregoing
with a pathetic reference to Senator
Dubois of Idaho, who is one of the sill
yer men it always hides behind when
trying to arouse sympathy in its own
behalf and justify its abandonment of
the silver fight.
1t is not necessary TO speak for the
ex-senator from Idaho. He talks for
himself as the following dispatch sent
out from Blackfoot by the Associated
Press yesterday shows. 1t is a COM
pIete answer to all our neighbours
plaintive walls:
Ex-senator Dubois, chairman of the
executive committee of the National
Silver Republican party, was inter
viewed today as to the present attitude
of the Silver Republicans. Mr.. Du-
bois said:
1.-The Silver Republicans will meet in
national convention at the same time
and place as the national Democrats.
THE persistent statement made by
the RepuDlCdn press, lnaI SILVER IS d
dead ISSUE is the expression Of their
wish, but not of a fact. Those who
supported Bryan in 1896 will support
him again unless they have some spec
ial reason for not doing so. There will
not be many who will abandon princi-
pies deliberately adopted, for personal
or special reasons.
THE Democrats, without doubt, will
declare against the foreign policy of the
administration-aga inSt imperialism.
The issues in 1900 will be the same as
in 1896, only intensified and more clearly
defined, and the candidates for presi-
dent will be the same. McKinle' will
be supported by the aggregation of
wealth and all that they represent. Mr..
Bryan will be supported by the reform
forces.
$50 far as the Silver Republicans are
concerned, they are interested in the
success of the principles which they
supported in the Chicago platform, and
Bryan has not changed and the Chi
cagO platform will be re-adopted.
THE union of the Democrats and Sill
yer Republicans will be more complete
and harmonious in 1900 than ever be-
fore, and everything points to a victory
Of the reform forces.
There is no disintegration of the
Silver Republicans except in the visions
of those who wish the success of the
gold standard trust, controlled, imper-
ialistic Republican party

TYPICAL eoLDsUG MANNERS.


How can The Herald have the heart
to tease US so upon our silver flop? in
substance asks the Tribune. How can
any Democrat find fault with our de-
claration that silver is dead" when
Chairman Jones and Senator White
came to Utah year ago and begged
them not 10 slap Mr.. Lannan's organ
in the face. And thus our morning
contemporary sits and means from day
10 day.
Why should the Salt Lake Tribune
be any more immune from criticism
than any other goldbug paper in the
land? It didn't spare the educated
idiots" OF the eastern press who used
10 say that "bimetallism would have to
come from European countries IL it
came at ALL" In the days before its
change of front it never failed to brand
as monumental liars" all who dared 10
intimate that silver is dead" Yet p.
II. Lannan is shedding tears over the
SOD that Hanna claims he placed above
the rigid form of silver three years ago;
and his personal organ is telling that
independent bimetailism is out of the
question, and that We must ask Europe
for permission to adopt a financial sys-
tenn for this republic.
But when these things are mentioned
the organ OF the boss begins to sneer
at the forensic ability Of some man Vino
at least wouldn't have betrayed the
cause from pique, or sold out TO Mark
Hanna.
It isn't always the man with a silver
tongue Ike Mr.. Lannan that is truest
70 the people and their principles. 1t
isn't always the man with gift of
CAB" or fluent pen whose vote may
be counted upon in every case. For
there are those and their records show
it, who can make the most eloquent
appeals for silver in the world and de-
sert the cause ere the cock crows
thrice.
sneering at the ability Of silver
champions has been the habit of gold
bugs fer three years or more. 1t is u
habit the Tribune mas easily acquired.

MRS. KEARNS' GENEROSITY.

The princely gift of a small fortune
to charity in Salt Lake City, for the
purpose of establishing an orphanage
under the auspices and protection of the
Catholic church, is the sort of generos-
ity that is most appreciated. 1t is for
splendid purpose. No impulse could
be nobler than that which prompts the
care and protection of helpless children
left without a parents guidance and
love. Too many people wait until after
they are dead before their wealth is
permitted to do good in a systematic
and permanently effective way. By her
endowment, Mrs. Kearns will live tc
take pleasure from the good that grows
out of it, and she has built a monu-
ment to herself and husband that will
endure forever.
The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1899-05-30

heard claiming that Democrats ana
anti-imperialists were actually found III
the ranks of our Cuban and Philippine
armies or on board OF Dewey's or
Simpsons battleships.
Not much harm has been done as yet,
since Schley has not thus far pro-
crossed further than from Omaha TO
Denver. But it is respectfully SIG
gested to the imperialist press that If
Schley is not to be called in at once,
something should be found out about ms
politics, and if it is not of the proper
variety, he should forthwith be branded
as a copperhead and a traitor.
Since the above was published in s..
Paul, the admiral has come to and
gone from Utah, greeted with an en-
thusiasm that embalmed beef will find
it difficult to eclipse. If the censorship
suggestion is acted upon, it should be
at once. for the people are receiving
very favorable impressions of the gal
liant old seaman everywhere he goes.

Oh! can't they hear the bugul and the rat

ANOTHER STEP.

The st. Paul Globe offers a sugges-
tion to the administration which should
be acted upon Immediately, if at all.
1t is that the second step in imperial
ism be taken, and a censorship PLACED
upon railway travel as well as upon
the mail service. This will enable
Hanna, Alger and the McKinIeys-
William and Abner-to reserve popu-
lar demonstrations for themselves. The
Globe says:
Has the attention of the honorable.
the secretary of the navy, been called
recently TO the movements of one VIII
field Scott Schley, now or recently a
rear admiral in the service of the de-
partment? If not, it should be. Some
discreet friend of President Mckinley
should intervene and put a stop 10 he
scandalous exhibitions which are beng
made in connection with this mans
progression from one western city 10
another. 1t is at least unseemiy; and
in view of the announced intention Of
the head of the imperialist admins
tration to include some of the cities
visited or 10 be visited by Schiey in
his own itinerary. it may well be said
to be officially discourteous, if not i'm
pudent.
We do not know just what Rear All
miral Schley's politics is. 1t may be
that he does not know himself, or tha5.
if he does, his knowledge bears 40
earlier date than that OF the report Of
the administration hero, Sampson, re-
garding events at Santiago. But, ie It
should appear, for instance. that
Schley has any utilization with the anil

the present is the time for action. He
should be called on TO report to nis
command right off, and leave the plau-
