is contrary to public policy-sometbing
that this republic cannot outgrow, ex-
cept by growing warped and gnarled.
The house judiciary committee had
already decided that Congressman
Wheeler, Campbell and Colson should
be required to give up either their
army commissions or their seats. Mr..
Bailey's position was vindicated by
that committee, for they We're bound
to follow and construe the law. But
when it came to a vote upon the ques-
ton, there was the gallery filled with
hero-worshipers, there We're the hissers
and the clappers, and the law was for
gotten and Mr.. Bailey was turned
down.
BY this vote in favor of allowing men
holding presidential commissions a
precedent has been established, which
is bound to result in gross abuses in
the future. No line can be drawn be-
tween civil and military commissions,
any more than it can be drawn between
regular and volunteer service. Every
attempt to make such distinctions is
absurd and clearly at variance with the
only possible intent of the law.
While popular cIamor is with Cen
eral Wheeler just now. and while we
are free to confess that our own sym
pathies are with him, the law is with
Bailey.

the pleasures of his master, holy man,
protested and was cast out. Angered,
he became an ascetic, and. rousing the
people of the Egyptian government,
proclaimed himself Ell Mahdi ell Mum
tazer, the Expected Guide. Troops and
armies sent TO subdue him were de-
stroyed, until doubters soon believed
that in truth this leader was the Nah
di. Then followed the defeat of Hicks
and Baker. and the year 1885 witnessed
the murder Of Gordon and his follow
ers. and the humiliation of both Egypt
and England. From that date to 1886
we note a record of gradual forcing
back OF the Dervishes. of the defeat of
osman Digna and Wad Waden-Nejumi,
the latter the conuueror of Hicks and
the captor of Khartoum. until Egypt
was freed from the danger of wild at
tacks. About all of this was accom-
plished by the genius and hard work
of the present Sirdar, General Kitehe-
ner
And now, according to recent dis
patches from Cairo the remnants of
the Dervish forces are gathering for
final stand against the further en-
croachment of modern civilization upon
the sacred soil consecrated by the blood
of their brethren. But they will be
brushed aside as the others have been.
The march of humanity is onward. It's
progress is irresistible. Nothing can
hinder it now. These Dervishes cannot
even delay it longer.

UTAH AND FRANCE.

Speaking Of the celebrity with which
France recovered from the shock of
President Taure's death. elected his
successor and proceeded to business,
the New York World uses the Utah
legislative fight for purposes Of com
parison.
1t says that, Before it was possible
to arrange for the state funeral of one
president, his successor was chosen
and installed and the wheels of govern
ment move as smoothly as il nothing
had happened. Even the foolish and
frothy tumult IN the Paris streets,
which had no significance, has died
away, and Loubet assumes the presi-
dency after less disturbance than marks
the election of a sagebrush senator or
a boss-ridden mayor in this country"
The conclusion reached by the World
contains a little food for reflection in
this country, where we have criticised
the irritability of the French people
and the military despotism of their
government. 1t says:
such an occurrence justifies the
strongest confidence in the capacity of
the people of France for self-govern-
ment. 1t should confirm our faith in
popular institutions everywhere and in
the principles on which they are
founded"

uNKNDEST CUT OF ALL.

Attorney David Evans is sore at the
Tribune. From his letter printed in it's
columns yesterday morning, it appears
that he has been treated flippantly
Coming from any other newspaper in
the state, he would not have paid any
attention to it But to be treated thus
by the one paper upon whose sympathy
and support he counted-it was too
much. too much! too mulch!
When Caesar was surrounded by
Roman. senators. each trying to get in
a knife edgewise, he made some show
of resistance. at least of resentment,
until his eye fell upon Brutus, his CO.
laborer, his main guy. Brutus had q
knife out. too, and he presented it to
Caesar, point first, with his compli-
ments.
EFT tn, Brutel' cried the martyr.
Then fall. Caesar!'
But knife of bronze or steel is not so
keen. SO cruel, so cutting TO the quick,
as mans ingratitude." And gibes and
jeers and flippant treatment make
wounds that hurt the worst. They
bring not death, but pain. They are
the most unkindest cuts of ALL"
When Brutus gave them, how could
Caesar stand? For Brutus, as you
know, was Caesars angel
