STORMS IN THE WEST INDIES

1t will be the duty of the weather
sbureau, which has established stations
in thu West Indies to observe the man
ners, whims and temper of hurricanes
and cyclones in that storm center of
the Atlantic, that the inhabitants may
be guided by intelligence in rebuilding
their homes and taking whatever pre-
cautionary measures are possible to
prevent the loss of life and property.
Seamen say that a waterspout on the
ocean may be broken by a we'll direct
ed cannon ball; but whether funnel
shaped clouds can be inundated or
destroyed by cannoHading is another
question. Observers of the cyclone in
the Mississippi valley have a theory
that this is possible. In any event,
whether Yankee ingenuity will ever de-
wise an electrical battery capable Of
shocking the storm-king, or bag to
catch and hold half-grown hurricanes
until they get into a good humor, it
is advisable and practicable to intro
duce better style of architecture and,
perhaps, a system of storm cellars
which will prevent repetition of the
distress caused by recent storms in
Porto Rico and adjacent islands.

WHAT THE PUBLIC WANTS.

People who look upon pugilism as
brutal and dangerous sport are invited
to turn their attention TO the reports
of the Bean Weday contest at Provo
the other evening. It wasn't brutal
enough to be interesting, according TO
all printed opinions. 1t was so tame
that a suspicion of insincerity fingers
with the memory of it. Neither man
was aggressive enough 10 please his
friends and hackers. Both of them
were too kind hearted and careful OF
each others features and feelings to
suit the audience. 1t arose as one man
and pronounced the whole affair a fake
when the referee became weary and
disguised and called all bets off.
After all, there isn't as much danger
in prizefighting as there is in football.
And these glove contests where men
jolt each other with pillow-mitt and
occasionally fall down to keep up the
excitement are not half so brutal as
wrestling matches 1t is very evident
that the public wants to be warned and
protected against fake fisticuffS as
much as it desires brutal prizefighting
prohibited. Men ought to be able to
box as they wrestle, row, run, or ride
wheels-to show their skill, strength,
agility and wind.

AeUINALDo'S UTAH AIDE.

1t seems that Major Young escaped
the bullets of the Spaniards. the ar
rows of the Negritos and the treachery
of the Tagals only to become the target
of the copperhead press upon lis re-
turn from the islands.
The newspaper that likened Aguinal-
do to George Washington and held the
cause of the Filipinos higher than that
for which our revolutionary forefathers
battled was in position to retail camp
gossip about a hero and volunteer of
whom ali Utah is justly proud Column
after column has been hurled against
the name and fame of Major Young by
Aguinaldo's local aide-de-camp; but
every one has been repulsed and broken
just as the guns of Utahs batteries
helped to break and scatter the attack
ing columns of Spanish and insursent
infantry
1t seems, however. that Aguinaldo's
Utah ally is weakening. From three
columns of abuse anG misrepresenta-
ton the assailing force had dwindled
to one and half yesterday. The rainy
season viii not help the chief defamer
of Utah. Arms and ammunition may
be sent in from the east. but this fight

the service of his country is bound to
result in the complete discontinue and
rout of the political Tagal.

ITS CRYING ACT.

1t is almost pathetic to read the pit
liable whine Of our morning contempo-
rary over the fate of silver Republicans
whom it has basely betrayed. As if
they were a lot of children it tries to
toll them away from principle by hold
ing up the sack of candy that Uncle
Mark gives to good old boys. and by
trying TO make them think they've been
'dreffully aboosed'' by the wicked
Democrats who live in caves away
down in the ground and do the awful
lest things!
In response to Senator Cannon's Chi
cago interview our neighbor sent up
another wall over the lack of apprecia-
ton the Democrats of Utah showed it.
when it ought to know. as everyone
else knows, that the Democrats of
Utah distrussed it from the first. be-
lieYing that on the most filinsy pretext
it would abandon any cause advocated
by Democracy Whether or not subse-
quent events have justified this dis
trust we leave to the reading public
Certain it is that this member of the
pioneer band of free coinage opponents
stuck to the party that demonetized sill
yer for twenty-three years after de-
monetization was achieved. and when
that party planted itself unequivocally
on the single gold standard and claimed
fun credit for ITS act of 1873 the Tribune
let loose with one hand for a brief in
terval. but chung to the party trapeze
with the other so that with the proper
inducements and assurances. it might
be able to continue its performance.
OF course it was viewed with distrust.
And 50 long as it identified itself with
the silver Republicans of the state they
may not have been received into the
councils of Democracy with the same
spirit of fraternity that awaits those
whom the Benedict Arnold of silver did
not and cannot deliver to the enemies
of bimetallism. The Herald has al
ways contended. and the Tribune knows
il. that silver Republicans should be
recognized and honored in Democratic
conventions. There were many Demo-
Gratis who expressed the fear that a
considerable number of silver Repub-
licans would follow their organ back to
the goldbug camp when the inevitable
hop occurred. But they were mistaken.
The deserters are few and far between.
They are not found IN the mining
camps. nor on the farms. They are
ret among those who labor in the shops.
on the streets and railroads. and in the
mills and factories. They constitute a
little crowd of professional politicians
ans. their henchmen. And in vain does
our goldbug contemporary wave its
sack of sweets and tell silver men that
they ought to wear Mark Hanna's col
lar because the Democrats Of Utah are
such a wicked lot. It's too babyish. It

strued as evidence of guilt. Then she
exclaimed, in vibrating tones: Il did

from such imputations. but / appeal

Returned to her cell. where she was
subjected to indecencies too brutal for
the pages of history, the sentence was
read to her of death by guillotine the
following day Robespierre, so opposed
to the king, would have saved the
queen if he could, saying: IF my head
were not so necessary TO the revolution
