PEACE AT The HAGUE.

The peace congress meets at The
Hague today. Every civilized power
will be represented. Every shade of
opinion Will doubtless find expression
in that assemblage. There will be some
delegates who are opposed to any
change in the existing order. Others
will contend for international agree
ment to secure universal peace. Those
who insist upon no action are not in
sympathy with the object of the con-
ventiOn, while those who hope for a
peace contract are very apt to be dis
appointed.
The most that may be expected in
reason is a change of international
rules to mitigate some of the evils of
war. One of the greatest of these is
the intolerable burden of taxation from
which the people suffer under military
despotism. Another is the injury done
the people by the Consumption of able
bodied men, taking them from the var
ious industrial fields, leaving the fields
to be titled and the factories run by
women, children and old men, While
still another is the demoralizing effect
of garrison life upon the thrift and am
billions OF the men.
There will be a strong effort made
TO secure some sort of an ARRANGEMENT
for an equitable and gradual reduc-
ton of the standing armies of the
earth A general impression prevails
that this is the main purpose of the
congress; and it arises from the fact
that in his first circular the car made
some allusiOn to the tremendous arma-
ments of Europe and the fact that they
were becoming intolerable.
This was merely a suggestion In his
communication to the powers, outlin-
ing the scope Of the congress, the car
made it plain that the real purpose is
to devise some plan by which interna-
tional disputes can be submitted to an
international tribunal for examina-
ton, and perhaps settlement. before
is taken.
To this the British and United States
delegates are pledged. They have also
agreed to work together for an amend
ment to the declaration of Paris so as
10 exempt all peaceful commerce from
seizure in war, and for the extension of
the Geneva convention to war at Sea,
as well as on land.
Americas influence in the congress
will certainly be for peace. This is a
republic of peace. Its traditional policy
is one of peace. Its best interests are
in the line OF peace. This policy is tenn
porarily perverted by the temptations
of conquest. But it will right itself in
time.
1t is to be hoped that good will re-
suit from the congress that assemblies
at The Hague today.

A VOW.

press.)
A rhymer vowed he would not sing
OF woodland creeks where fishes roam,
OF pretty birds upon the wing
OF balmy air and early spring.
When all the earth is one sweet poem.
No, everybody scribbles off,
The poet unused, one wintry day,
"A lot of rhyme
On fishing time.
And all the joys that come in May"
But, To- at last the spring came round.
The balmy air rushed with will
The Park with loneliness was crowned
And, oh. he heard the pleasing sound
OF birds upon the window-sill.
The cable cars went banging by,
The wagons ratified all the day,
And all along
He heard the song
OF babbling waters far away
And, oh, he. sighed for woodland streams.
A can of bait, a fishing pole,
Where fishes dart and sunlight CLEANS.
And all the day is spent in dreams.
That come and go and fill the soul.
And, oh, such joy rushed with the wind.
And, oh! so glad was fishing time,
He could not lay
His pen away
But broke his vow to write this rhyme.

these Republican organs make upon the
miners organization is that they re-
sort TO falseheods in order to create
prejudice against the miners.
In the resolutions adopted last Mon
day by the Western Federation of Min
ers, particular attention was called to
the fact that none of the employees of
the Bunker Hill and Sullivan mines
were members of organized labor; and
the federation. by resolution, expressly
deprecated the destruction of proper
ty by physical force"
No doubt by this time members of the
federation have learned better than to
expect fair treatment from these jour
nalistic champions of greed and monop-
oily. Therefore when, from false prem
Uses. the Standard argues that the rep
resentatives of the various unions who
Joined in denouncing the Tribune's un-
fairness were incendiaries and dyna-
miters, it is only to be regarded as
matter of course.
We doubt if there was a single labor
delegate to the convention held in this
city this month who would encourage,
participate in. or try to justify the
commission of a crime.
Affairs like this at Wardner injure
the labor unions more than they dam
age the mineowners; they bring more
suffering to laboringmen and their fam
lilies than they do to capitalists.
The laboringmen know this. They
are not fools.
The capitalists know it, too. They
are not fools, either

ATKINSON AND ALGER.

One thing is northumberland Atkinson
will never be able to run for office on
his war record.-St. Louis Globe-Demo-
crat.
However, if he have money, he may
get cabinet position under some gold
bug administration or other. His war
record is better than Ayers.
Atkinson may have been guilty of
trying to make the volunteers home
sick after their terms of enlistment eX-
pired and the war for which they en-
listed was long over. But no one ever
accused him of furnishing soldiers
with putrid or poisoned meat, or with
fiippantly admitting such a crime and
saying What of it?''
Atkinson probably never enlisted in
the civil war as Alger did, but it was
more honorable to stay at home and
hire a fighting substitute, than it was
to strut around camp in colonel's uni
form and draw full pay as Alger did,
only to desert his post of duty when
ever firing began on the picket line.
Atkinson's military record is away
ahead of Ayers, and his arguments
in the campaign of 1896 in favor of
McKinley's election. while probably not
as potent as Ayers contribution to
Hanna's corruption fund. were never
theless about the strongest legitimate
arguments presented for the success of
the st. Louis ticket and platform.
We are surprised to see a swarm of
Asiatic islands pass between Mr.. At
kinson and the administration he was
largely instrumental in electing.

The Pittsburg Post thinks it strange
that while the state of Idaho has a
regiment of volunteers engaged in the
war of conquest and subjugation in the
Philippines, a regiment of negro regu-
lars has been sent into Idaho from a
distant state to put down labor dis
turbances among the citizens of the
state, that martial law has been vir-
tually declared and that General Mer-
riam has established a strict censor
ship over the telegraph. We have act
i've war in the Philippines and in Sa-
moa, and a threat of war in Central
America" Therefore the Post thinks
it but natural that a small war should
be INDUCED in in Idaho.

IN HARMONY TOGETHER.

It is really refreshing to witness the
perfect harmony which exists between
the Ogden Standard and the Salt Lake
Tribune since the latter became a dis
ciple and follower OF the former in the
financial procession.
They are cheek by jowl today on al
most every issue, local or national, that
arises. and the way the Standard
rushes to the TribUnes defense in its
fight on union laboringmen who have
incurred its aninosity, shows that the
partnership is genuine.
1t IS to be expected, then, that the
Republican organ of the Junction City
will dislike men whom the Tribune dis
likes hereafter, and that, in consider
alton therefor, the local Republican or
gan viii continue TO endorse and ap-
pIaud McKinley's policies" and remain
true to the Standards International BIZ
metallic project.
Ever since the labor union delegates
arrived IN Salt Lake City, the Tribune
has been calling some of them loaf
ers'' and ''blatherskites,' others "agi-
tators," criminals" and anarchists. -
For a few days it drew heavily from its
store OF inyective and reeled off epi-
thets like a raging fishwoman. It re-
fers 10 their session in this city as
''so-called labor convention 1t as
sures the delegates who passed the res
olutions resenting its abuse that il
.'pities them" and warns them to be-
ware of the '.incendiaries" they repeat
eddy elect as the officers of the union.
Finally, it winds UP with that old
chestnut that "the Tribune is run on
the dead square" if labor unions are
not. in its august opinion.
The ogden Standard assumes that.
because the miners federation did not
denounee the great crime of which it
has been accused presumably the
Wardner riot, that it sanctions crime
and its members are criminals. 1t says:
The Salt Lake Tribune has been COM
Jlimented lay roast from the Western
Miners federation. which held its last
session in Salt Lake City yesterday. No
federation that fails TO denounce a great
crime Of which il is accused. and actually
offers TO defend the men who destroyed a
half million dollars worth Of property by
using dynamite, can harm the Tribune. In
fact. IL is a certificate of good character
for a newspaper to receive the condem-
nation OF a dynamiter.
According to the Tribune, it isn't
necessary TO deny things Of which one
is accused Think of the miners fed

that the moon is made Of green cheese.

ANOTHER HERO sACRIFIcED.u

Utah has offered up another sacrifice
upon the altar of conquest
Sergeant Ford Fisher of battery A,
one Of the most popular and promising
young men Of this city. is the latest
victim to fan beneath the juggernaut
Of imperialism.
He was a manly fellow, bright, frank
and honest; of superior intelligence,
winning ways and high ideals. A finer
type OF young manhood it would be
hard to imagine. His active mind, his
training. his unquestioned patriotism,
his soidierly qualities and bearing de-
served a better recognition than he re-
ceived, but Major Young's attention
had been drawn to them in battle, and
he had recommended the young SER
geant for commission
It comes too late. The soldier who
earned the promotion is not to enjoy
the distinction. But his honors are
high as mortal man attains. For he
served his country a hero. and died
martyr to the vaccilating policy of
weak administration.
Ford Fisher was one of the brave
NtSltIA NDluAlGClC VIII lCiAdtLGu outE
signal service in the storming and cap
ture of Manila from the hosts of Spain.
He did his duty in the war for which
he enlisted as faithfully as did any Of
the men who faced that storm of shot
and shell on San Juan hill. He did
more. He was compelled to lie in the
sickly trenches and toll in the tropic
sun long after his term of enlistment
had expired. long after Spain had given
up long after his country had any
claim whatever upon him for his SER
vices. He was too much of a soldier
to murmur. If he sometimes wondered
why he was retained in the service
when he had a right to come home to
his mother and his father, he viii never
able now to tell thoughts.
What they feel no one knows who
has not experienced the affliction. 1t is
certainly a consolation that he died
hero. But he was that when the Span
ish war was over. It wasn't necessary
Tor him TO fight longer to show the
mettle and the manhood that were in
him. They had been tried in the fur
mace of war and their purity proved.
A younger brother is there on those
distant islands yet, and no man knows
what the morrow will bring forth. As
surances are sent out every day that
the Filipinos are weakening. But every
day they send a death list out as well
Mr.. and Mrs. Fisher have become en-
deared to the people of Utah through
the fellowship Of sympathy. The peO-
pie mourn with the stricken family,
and join with them in a prayer for the |
safe return of the other son.

1t claims that this Tanner-Cannon
controversy of two years standing
grew out of the sensational contest
of last winter, and intimates that The
Herald published the story as a part
of the senatorial campaign.
The Tribune fails to explain what in
terest the Associated Press has in Mr..
McCune's political affairs, and yet the
Associated Press deemed the matter OF
sufficient interest to send it out, thus
giving every daily newspaper in the
United States a scoop over the Tribune
concerning a most sensational contro-
versy right here in this city.
