to drive the rebels from the American
right flank. between the railroad and
the foothills. He met with slight r.
distance near Santa Maria and had one
man wounded

check our advance and cover the re-

The American guard along the rail-

quarters as they did Tuesday even if
they return from the mountains.

LOCAL AFFILIATIONS"

1t isn't right for Democrats to talk
silver in this municipal campaign" say
Republican stumpers, whereupon they
launch into a defense Of the presidents
policy of Imperialism, shout for more
tariff and dare any Democrat to touch
lie trusts.
1t hasn't been a great while since
the local Republican organ declared
that every recognition OF an admins
tration Republican in local conven-
ton was an encouragement to the gold
bugs of the east.
Last year those Republicans who still
believed in bfmetaliism issued an adj
dgess to the people of Utah, in which
they said:
I'VE point to the fact that the ma
tional Republican party of the Unit
ed States has abandoned the cause of
bimetallism, and that local adher-
ence to the national Republican or
ganization is affiliating with gold
monometallism and oppression of the
people"
Why are some of the people who be-
lieve in the truth of that address pro-
testing now against mentioning silver
in this campaign? Isn't it because they
are ashamed of working now with the
regular Republican organization?

the practice. 1t has only been a few
years since it read Arthur Brown out
of the party; then it stormed around

WELLS ON IMPERIALISM.

Governor Wells says that we left out
the pith of what he said at the Theatre
the other evening. We failed to OBJ
serve any pith. He simply took the
position that. if Democrats hold Re-
publicans responsible for the financial
policy Of the present administration.
then every Filipino bullet that draws
the precious blood of our boys over
there is an incontrovertible argument
against the. election of any Democrat
to office anywhere"
To be plain about it, this conclusion
of the governors is the silliest sort of
childish prattle. All Republicans who
support the regular Republican organ
ization encourage the maintenance CT
the single gold standard. If the COVER
nor argues from this that all who OPP
pose forcible expansion in this country
encourage the Tagal instruction. we
still insist that his excellency bear his
share of the responsibility. If Demo-
cratic leaders have given any more aid
and comfort TO islanders who insist
upon their independence than Cover
nor Wells has given them, we would
like to have the instance cited.
Are we to enter upon career of
conquest and trample upon the hal
lowed traditions of the past COVER
nor? Then, why wasn't the same as
surance given the Filipinos that was
given the Cubans? Both peoples We're
entitled to their independence: they
had been fighting for it; and Admiral
Dewey has said that the F'ilipinos are
more capable of self government than
the Cubans are. You will not dispute
that your own party organ has COM
pared Aguinaldo TO George Washing
ton and has said that we found his peo-
pie fighting in a higher cause in LII
ION than our revolutionary forefathers
were engaged in between 1776 and 1888.
There would have been no. uprising
in the Philippines if the president
hadn't ignored the revolutionists after
arming them and treating them as al
lies; they would lay down their arms
any day that the president would give
them the slightest assurance that
forcible annexation is not sought. But
Mr.. Mckinley has been shouting from
the tai end of a special train for ten
months that the flag never should be
hauled down where it had been raised;

STILL LlBElING THE UNION.

Ezra Thompson's journalistic hacker,
the Tribune, continues to denounce all
members of the Miners union as in
cendiaries and murderers at heart" 1t
went further, and claimed that every
delegate to the miners convention was
a blatherskite and a blackguard de-
clared that they knew their organiZa-
ton to be responsible for the crimes
committed at Wardner, and justified
the order excluding union men from
employment in the district
If anybody expresses a belief in the
innocence of the organization of miners
or resents the indiscriminate charges
made against the members thereof by
the local Republican organ, it begins
TO hurl its biiiingsgate. There isn't a
labor union in this country that en-
dorses the Tribune's position in relation
to the Miners union. Yet the organ
pretends to lead the local trade and
labor unions around by the ears.
On the contrary, the following reso-
luton, passed by the Western Fedora
ton of Miners by a unanimous vote,
has been endorsed from one ocean 10
the other
Resolved. That we stigma tie the order
OF General Merriam and the civil author
tiles that men seeking employment in the
mines of this district must renounce
membership in the Miners unions to be
worthy only of despotic men, and not
worthy of notice by citizens of America.
and declare that the Miners unions had
nothing whatever TO do with the destruc-
ton of the Bunker Hill. and will defend
their right of organization.
President Corners said in his ad-
dress to the laboring men of this city,
lit is not the labor union, but the iron
hand Of militarism which is underrnin-
ing this country" AS an advocate of
militarism the Republican organ cannot
be expected 10 regard the Miners union
as anything but an aggregation of cut
threats.
The opinion entertained by that union
concerning the Republican organ is
mildly expressed in the following reso-
luton. which also passed the conven-
ton by a unanimous vote:
Resolved That we denounce the Salt
Lake Tribune for the narrow. preiudiced
untruthful and slanderous manner in
western Labor union and some of the in
dividual members of these organizations
have been treated in the editorial, col
ums of the above named paper

The war ended in August. last year.
No further attention was paid to the
Filipino-. President Mckinley. in his
message of the following December ex-
tended hearty congratulations to the
people of Cuba and Porto Rico. He
never referred to the Filipinos or to
their infinitely higher cause Then
he sent commander to the islands
who, according TO your party organ,
deliberately ignored the native army
from the first. How else would you set
about conquest, governor? You know
you would provoke lot of islanders
to start a row and then start in to whip
them for revenge. But leaving all this
out of the question, governor, don't
you really believe you convinced Aguin-
aldo that no government had just power
over his people except as it was de-
rived from the consent of the governed?
Didn't you tell him TO get that sort of
inspiration?
Honor bright, governor, do you re-
gard the daily slaughter of Tagals as
"a war of philanthropy to downtrodden
humanity?" Do you think it adds any
thing to our national grandeur, to our
fame as warlike power? Do you re-
gard it essential to the preservation of
the nation? Would victory add one
laurel to our republics wreath of great
ness?
President Mckinley was commended !
for his haste in assembling congress to |
pass the Dingley bill at the behest of I
eastern manufacturers; don't you be- /
lieve he could have saved many human |
lives, millions of money and more mill j

fine the status of these Filipinos just |
as you suggested in your Logan speech?

great liberty with my name and fam
lily in regard to the prosecutions against
alleged polygamiStS in Davis county.

until yesterday or i should have re-

have not and never have had any con-
nection with any saloon in Rexburg
and j. c. Brandon has no saloon there
nor elsewhere. My business in Idaho
is that Of president of a business cor
poration at st. Anthony known as the
Brandon Bros, engaged in stock rails
ing. farming and merchandising.

kind. either directly or Indirectly, to
Mr.. Owen, and never met that gentle
man but once, then for a few minutes
in SAT- Lake City. and that after the
Roberts affidavit had been made. In
the few words that passed between us.
the affidavits made and the prosecu-
tions started or attempted in Davis
county were not even alluded to.
The story of my wifes. stopping a
child or children on the street and
asking them questions concerning
Aunt Celia" or touching Mr.. Roberts
domestic relations, are absolutely I'M
true.

to attend to without meddling in the
affairs of my neighbors, with all of

tation in Davis county should have

The Republican organ intimates that
it has not misrepresented Judge Pow
ers by claiming him as a defender of
Hanna's Imperialism. In support of the
attempt to place him in a false light
it asks: rs he feeling badly over the
Misrepresentation" We have no idea
that he cares a fig what the mouthpsece
of Mark Hanna says about him. The
only reason The Herald referred to the
matter at all was to prevent an errone-
Gus impression from being created by
that arch mischief-maker-th storm
