Eastward Through the Rockies,
The Scenic Route


The traveller, tourist or business
man is wise when he selects the Rio
Grande Western Railway "Great
Salt Lake Route" for his route to
the East. 1t is the only trans-con-
tinental line passing directly through
Salt Lake City, and in addition to
the glimpse it affords of the Temple
City, the Great Salt Lake and the
picturesque Salt Lake and Utah
Valleys, it offers the choice of three
distinct routes through the noun
tains and the most magnificent seem
cry in the world. Double daily
train service and through Pullman
and Tourist sleeping cars to Denver,
Omaha and Chicago. Monday Tues.
day and Wednesday, of each week,
Pullman Tourist cars are run to
Boston via Chicago, without change.
Trains leave Salt Lake at S.45 a. m.
and 40 p. m. daily.
For pamphlets descriptive of the
"Great Salt Lake Route" write F.

ISSUES FOR 1900.

Yesterdays dispatches indicate that
the Democrats assembled at st. Louis
for the purpose of discussing party pol
icies decided to stand by the Chicago
platform in 1900.
Bryan is the acknowledged leader and
his nomination next year is conceded.
So thoroughly identified is he with the
cause of independent bimetallism that
his selection as the standard bearer in
the coming campaign is equivalent to a
free coinage platform, even if no plat
form at all were adopted.
There are other issues the admins
tration has forced to the front, and it
is the party in power that makes the
issues. Trust, protection, and the license
these combinations of capital have
taken from the well-known sympathy
of the administration, have forced the
people to take up arms against any
further encroachment upon their rights
in this direction.
Owing to the corruption creeping into
the army under Alger and the DISPOSE
ton of Hanna to run bargain counter
for civil appointments, Democrats are
afraid of territorial expansion. even if
its constitutionality and ACCESSIBILITY
were assured beyond question.
Then there is a growing sentiment IN
favor of the election of United States
senators by popular vote, which will be
intensified when a few governors are
permitted to defy the will of the ma
jority in their respective states, as
Stone has done in Pennsylvania, and
Gage threatens to do in California.
But the Chicago platform will stand,
and to it will be added the issues the
present administration has forced to
the front.
There Will be no step backwards. The
march of Democracy is EDWARDS, and it
is time for the pendulum of fate, which
has been swinging since 1876, to land
the party of jefferson, Jackson and
Bryan in power again.

MAKE 1T A ROUSER.

No one questions the anxiety of the
people of Utah to honor the naval COM
mander who win honor the state to-
morrow with a visit.
Committees have been appointed for
his reception and entertainment, but
citizens should not leave everything to
the committees. Committees can
make plans and arrange programmes,
but they cannot express the apprecia
tion of the public for heroes of the
war; they cannot convey to the admiral
the love and enthusiasm of his coun-
trymen. These things devolve upon the
masses. They ought to turn out in full
force, line the streets, cheer and show
the patriotism they undoubtedly feel.
Denver took a holiday when Schley
stopped there. Everybody was de-
lighted, and demonstrated it in true
American style.
Let the gallant seaman find as warm
a welcome in Salt Lake City. Show
him that there is as much interest and
enthusiasm in the achievements of
American valor here as he will find in
any city of this republic.
Flags should fly from every Flagstaff.

tions of the kind should be given to-

Called a Halt On the Saucers.
ATLANTA Constitutions

Thew had agreed to part. and the sep
aration went on all right until Tom Mea-
dor tackled Amy's saucers. Tom and Mary
had welded in some TAR away day in the
dim and almost forgotten past. They had
fought often and at last they had agreed
TO play quits once and forever.
All of this little domestic drama was
rehearsed at the matinee yesterday.
"Jedge, said the deserted Amy, rather
sauciiy, Il jes' wants dem saucers. Tom
said he gwine ter quit me, and l says ter
him, Den jes quit, and den he TUX all de
things ter pack up. Bmeby ne commed
ter dem saucers what he done gibbed me
long time ago fur Christmas gift, and
when he tarched dem saucers l up and
says, l did: Yer kin take ebbery thing,
but yer can't tarch dem saucers. Tom he
lows dat he gwine ter do il nohow, and
l den popped him lick side de jaw. Dat
make Tom drap de saucers and dere dey
all wen ter smash rite dere for my eyes

All that Tom had to say was that he
had clear legal title to the saucers and
was only in the act of taking what be-
longed to him in the division of the do
nestle spoils.
Since you are house divided re-
marked Judge Nash. Il will divide the
cost of the affair equally, as you should
have done the saucers. Your bill here

QUAY AND HIS CHANCES.

1T is quite probable, said Colonel Pat
Lannan. the widely-knOwn editor of the
Salt Lake Tribune. at the Raleigh, that
Governor Wells will appoint a United
States senator to ill the seat vacated by
Mr. Cannon. 1t is not positively known
that he will do so. and his action may de-
pend on the decision of the senate with
reference to Hon. NJ. S. Quay. If Mr..
Quay's appointment is made valid. then
there can hardly be "A doubt that Utah
Will have It's senatorial quota. and the
appolntee will, OF course. be a Republican:
The same course can be safely predicted
as to California. Washington Post.
1t is very evident that a test case VIII
be made of Quay's appointment to the
senate by. Governor Stone. When the
action of Pennsylvania chief execu-
tive was first announced there wasn't
daily newspaper of any prominence
in the United States but treated the
matter as an empty honor bestowed
upon the ex-senator at the close of his
trial for embezzlement, to mitigate, in
a measure, the annoyance TO which he
had been subjected. None of them took
the appointment seriously, so often had
the senate ruled upon such cases and
adversely to appointees without excep-
ton.
If the senate reverses itself in this
instance its precedents, which have al
ways governed its conduct and have
given it the reputation of being a con-
servative body, are apt to be thrown to
the winds, while petty politics steps in
and takes complete control.
The Republican press of the country
which entered lively protests at first,
are slowly. and, in some cases, sullenly
falling into line for Quay's admission.
The secret of this is Senator Mark Han
mas open declaration of support. of

MISTAKES IN PORTO RICO.

Some fearful plumbers have been
made in Porto Rico by the United
States officials placed over the people
for their government. And where
abuses are possible under the military
system they are more than apt to be
the rule after a military protectorate
is withdrawn and civil authorities sent
there TO assume control.
This is particularly regrettable in
the ccse of the Porto Ricans, who
welcomed our invading army as friends
and cheered the Americans every step
they advanced. 1t is not very encour-
aging for other islands if Porto Rico
is to be misgoverned, if a land that
presented none of the difficulties en-
countered elsewhere is to be a witness
of our failure to bring about improved
conditions.
The only problem in Porto Rico is
to rule with honesty, common sense
and tact Contrary reports have come
from the island, and they fill the
American people with more or less
alarm and apprehension
If the principle of provisional admin
istration by the army fails to produce
the desired results, it is simply another
indication of the gross and glaring in
competency which characterizes the
war department. For the army is
honest and its officers are capable If
left alone by bureaucrats and corrup-
tionists of the Alger stripe. And so
long as these affairs are continued in
the hands of proved incompetents it
doesn't make a bit of difference
whether General Henry or General Da-
Wis is the figurehead.

shouldn't 7 be?"
Why, indeed? Quay stands for all
that is corrupt in politics. For twenty
years he has had reputation second

fryer" 1t is not only natural, but alb
solutely certain that men like Hanna
are for men like Quay. And while the

plainly read in every policy of his party
today, whether it refers to the feeding

precedents. 1t is the same brutal, DOM
ineering disposition that led him to
look upon the delegates to the st. Louis
convention as a lot of cattle he was
able and willing to buy as he needed
them.
