busted and the last sitting bloke."
Secretary Of Stale Patrie is out in.
a published letter declaring him
,selfdone with fusion and ready to
go back to his old love, the Re-
publican party This is at least
a confession that fusion has ran
its course, and from it no more
can be expected, 1t has been
known for a long time that Mr..
.Pat.ie was heartily Sick of his al
lance, and last winter when he
was given. to Understandable he
must come squarely$in into the
Democratic camp, he threw up
the sponge, he reyolted outright.
Possibly you never. heard about
that. Well it was this way. To-
wards the close of the Legislative
session, there was a secret meet

publicans, called for the purpose
of forming more pefect uniop3'

Ex-Attorney General George
NJ. Parsons has written letter in
response TO a letter of Secretary
of State Patrie, to numerous Sil~
yer Republicans. Mr.. Parsons
says, in part:
".I'he cry of silver has lost its
force as a power to rally men un-
der strange political banners.
Col. w. J. Bryan advises gold
Democrats to return to the DEM
ocratic fold and within its lines
fight out their differences on the
silver question. If his advice is
good as to Democrats, why is it
not equally good as to RepubIi-
cans?
''In the Silver Republican plat
form Of ns9s, we declared our
selves to be in favor of an honor
able union with all other political
forces who are willing to make
the restoration Of silver the para
mount issue, and that we are
ready to subordinate to it all 9TH
er questions of party policya
This declaration was the open
test of our fealty to silver and,
putting aside all other considera-
tons, we joined the Democrats n
its behalf.
"But the Democratic party has
made it plain that hencetorth sill

Would Make a Lincoln Of Him.

g These ought to be very proud
days for William Mckinley. He
is being treated precisely as was
Abraham Lincoln during three
and a half years Of his term as
president. His sincerity is i'm
peached; he is being charged
with a willingness, in the inter
ests of moneyed syndicates TO
sacrifice any number of lives
lives of American soldiers, as
well as the semi savage tribes Of
Luzon; others are calling him a
hypocrite, even as Carl Schurz
limited that Lincoln was, and the
descendants of the men who as
sailed Lincoln are raising pre-
cisely the same arguments and
.epithets which their ancestors
used towards Lincoln, in denun-
citation of Mckinley. Mckinley
bis not half as subtle a politician
not nearly so profound states
man as was Lincoln, but the NAL
ice of enemies is doing its utmos
tosplace the records of the two
men on the same piano.. excep
that Lincoln was dealing with
domestic Instruction, and the fo'
which he was called upon. to dea
with was composed of the gener.
Gus men of the South. while Nc;
Kinley is but trying to establish
order in a mongrel country. Blu
the hate behind the one is pre-
cisely the hate that now assail
the other, and the spirit Of $50,
lis the spirit Of 1864 Sal
Lake 7ribane.

Governor Steunenberg and the
immortal Sinclair have been
heard from in clarion tones, as
the author of U-pe-de I-de-i-da
would put it. But in the tones Of
the governor there is a marked
tremolo. "The thousands of
Democrats says he, ''whose
votes placed him (Patrie) in Of
fee have a right to feel Offend
= ed" and then as if to dissipate
the gloom of that. thought, his
excellency, catching the ghost of
a Dubois prophecy, braveIy cries i:
= 1.-THE silver forces will cooperate
in 1900 and carry the State, by, a
larger majority than ever" The
governor also observes that "To
the people Of south Idaho, where
MIR. Patrie lives and is known,
~ his action has no importance
whatever That is practically

As the day for the reassembI-
ing Of Congress approaches, the
fight against the seating Of Rob
-erts, Congressman elect for Utah,
increases in intensity. A recent
dispatch saya: There is scarcely
doubt that when the State Of
Utah is reached upon the organi-
cation of the House and MIR. Rob-
erts steps up to take the oath as
member Of Congress, some
members will arise. and object, on
the ground that MIR. Roberts is
ineligible TO membership on ac-
count of his having violated the
Constitution and the laWsiof Utah
against polygamy. Just who will
make the objection has not yet
been determined, but there are
half a dozen men at least who are.
ready to do SO. An objector is
certain to be forthcoming.
1t is decided that the clerk of
the House, Mr.. Maxwell, will OPP
pose the rule that the objection is
in order and that an appeal win
be taken from the decision oil
the chair and the majority will
decide whether or not Mr.. Rob
erts is to be allowed to take his
seat. By this means the difficult
ty of securing two-thirds of the
membership to vote for his expul-
sion, in case such a reason SHOULD
be subsequently offered, will be
avoided. The people who are
opposing the seating of Congress
man elect Roberts, who are rep
resented by Miss Helen Gould
have retained ex-senator Ed.
munds, the author Of the Edmunds
act, ex-Speaker Carlisle's clerk
and Mr.. Harry Smith, forme
journal clerk of the House, to pre-
sent the reasons why Robert
should not be seated on his print
facie case.

Il
formerly Lieutenant Governor
and State Engineer in Idaho, will
begin in Salt Lake City, January
5. It will be remembered that

The Denver Post says: Gov.
Roosevelt began an address to-
a mothers congress a few days
ago by saying: 81 am not a.
mother.p IL it was a mothers
congress of the usual brand every
woman in the house, could no
doubt have truthfully responded:

IA New York judge has re-
fused a divorce to woman
whose application was based on
the fact that her husband had
failed in business and become
poor, accompanying the refusal
with a cutting rebuke. Thus the
principle is legally established
5that woman cannot break her
husband and then shake him be-
cause he is broke, says TIE Kan

What a fine head the Admins
tration at Washington has on it.
Everything. seems to be managed
just so. Events are made to oc-
cur right in the niche of time, and
everything works out exactly
right. You remember0how timely
was the report Of the Philippine
Commission and how nicely its
tone harmonized with the Admin
istration's policy. It twas a COM
plete yindication Of the wisdom Of
the Presidents course, and came
7 just when it would do the most
good. Now, we perceive another
elegant stroke. The Philippine
rebellion is quashed on the eve Of
the meeting of congress, in order
that the Philippine question may
be promptly and finally disposed
Of. Could anything be more fe-
licitous?
1t is refreshing to turn from

ago, there was nothing so remote
from the thought Of Utah peopl,
as Sugar beet cultivation and SUI
gar manufacture; but now thes,
are well established and thriving

concerned. There is no. reaser

An interesting incident ot the pres ent state of the copper market is the receipt at New York this week of a lot of 9,9S9-about 250 tons-oi cop per coins from India, says the Engin- eering and Mining Journal. These coins, which are consigned 10 the Oxford Copper company, are shipped here as scrap copper, simply because they are worth more, at the present price Of copper, than their face or coin value. We have recently refer red to the trouble arising in China from the relatively high metal value of copper coins, and the same condi- tion seems to be felt in India. IL will doubtless continue. and we may ex- pect to hear of more imports of the same kind.
