NORTON FREwIN's VIEWS.

Moreton Frewin, the well known
financial authority and friend of
bimetallisn, is in Salt Lake
city, and gave The Herald an
interview, which was printed yes
terday morning. He regards the
prosperity of which the administration
boasts as fictitious and doomed to GER
tain collapse under the present finan-
cial system.
The bankers of Great Britain. accord
ing TO Mr.. FreWin, are awakening TO
the fact that the gold standard in India
is a-rniserable failure.
In England at the present time" he
said, mems minds are more or less
occupied with the war, but when they
pause to think on other topics, the gem
eral feeling in London is that the ex-
pertinent for the gold standard in India
mas broken down. When the standard
was instituted the minis were closed,
and, as a precautionary measure, TO
prevent the circulation of silver. rupees
were melted down. Before the situation
mad been long in vogue, however, it was
found imperative to purchase silver and
start up the minis once more, with the
result that men, such as Sir John Lub-
Dock, who used to denounce the bimet-
allists. are forced to concede that the
experiment is a failure"
Pseudo-silverites who claim that the
experiment Of the bankers in India de-
stroys every chance of securing bimet-
allism in this country win not fiuG
much consolation in the views of Mr..
Frewin. The situation abroad, as dis
cussed by him, is encouraging to the
friends Of bimetallism, and no true
friend of silver doubts that Independent
action by the United States government
would hasten the day of the worlds de.
uveranee from the gold standard

Let us dispense with mischief-makers
bearing tales TO the Republican organ.
Let mlnorities bow to the win of ma

MAJORlTiES RULE.

The Republican organ is ready to
turn on the men it caioled and misled
year ago, to make capital now Of
their having followed its counsel-sone-
thing Democrats should studiously
avoid henceforth.
The Tribune calls attention to the
fact that minority a year ago refused
TO acknowledge the will of a majority.
and that The Herald printed a list Of
names of men who, elected as repre-
sentatives of the Democratic principles,
nevertheless defed the will Of the Dem
ocratic party, as expressed by more
than a twO-thirds majority Of the
chosen representatives of that party,
and prevented the election of a Demo-
crat to the United States senate from
Utan.''
The obvious purpose of the Repub-
liean organ is to persuade the minority
in the recent state convention to take
the same position in regard to the ma
jority which named the candidate for
congress.
It is to be hoped that the Democrats
have learned as they go along that
the counsel Of the Republican organ is
always to their undoing, that it's motto
is: Anything TO besmirch the name
of the state or its citizens; anything
TO beat the Democrats"
It is to be hoped that minorities have
reached the conclusion that maioriIies
in conventions, legislatures. caucuses
-
win ruin
It is to be hoped that the Democrats
who composed the minority in the re-
cent state convention will stand with
the majority and support its candidate
for congress.
Let us have no traitors or boilers or
harl<sliders in the Democratic party.

HAPPILY HALF-HEARTED

OF the Hanna candidate for congress,
the Hanna mouthpiece has this to say:
He is one of those quiet men whom peo-
ple nave TO know well before they can

Republicans are delighted at the half
hearted manner in which their organ
endorses its candidate and hilariouSly
joyful over its criticism Of its platform.
When, several years ago. the Tribune
read Arthur Brown out Of the party,
that gentleinan's election to the United
States senate became a foregone con-
elusion.

the delegates to the st. Louis conven-

The Republican party Of Utah has
gone on record in opposition to a policy
that would give the mine-owners Of
Utah S1.29 for every ounce Of silver
they produce, against a policy that
would bring genuine and lasting pros

TO all the people within the state. And

The plan for the protection of Hamp-

be exposed to the guns of any fleet
that could pass in the Capes, first con-
sidcred, has been abandoned. THAT
was TO establish four mortar batteries
one each on the two Capcs. one at
Willoughby Spit and one on the shore
opposite Willoughby Beach. That wax
ascertaincd to be impracticablc be-
cause the channel is about 3lA miles
from Cape Henry, and, in Il foggy
night, vessels might pass unharmed
by mortar battery. The fact that
the range had been carefully ascer-

accuracy any where about Hampton
Roads would not alter the case. Bat
teries. as suggested, would not pro-
tect the entrance. Many cities would
be exposed to attack from fleet taxi

in between the CapeS.
The problem is not fully settled yet.
But the engineer referred to says en-
phatically that the man who says that
Fort Wool. on the rip Raps." is not
to be fortified simply doesn't know
what he is talking about.
Fort Wool is to he fortified. he says.
There are to he two great disappearing
guns, Of II or l3-inch calibre and n
dozen or more rapid-fre guns. prob
ably 6-inch rifles and guns of smaller
calibre. in addition.
There may be shore batteries. too
In fact. ii is contemplated that the
Governments reservation on Willough-

battery. 1t is certain, says the engin-
eer. that the Government intends to
protect this harbor and its own pro-
perty
Fort Wool was built on n founda-
ton made by dumping stones on the
sand bar there more than 20 years ago.
1t is not known precisely why the
work was abandoned. There are no
assures In the walls and no evidences
that the foundation stones have set
tied. Hence it cannot he that the
work was abandoned because of de-
fcCtS in Foundation or walls. There
are no indications of such defects.
In fact the engineer says the foun-
dation and the arrested Notifications
on it are sound. They will be strength
cncd and enlarged to receive batteries
OF modern guns. There is nothing
lacking but the appropriations. which
the next Congress will be asked to pro-
vide.

WORK FOR wREcKERs.
MEN AND MATERIAL OF TWO
STATIONS ALI. EMPLOYED IN
SAVING VESSELS AND
CARGOES

Wreckers are busy. The Merritt
and Chapman Dredging and Wrecking
Company has all it can do.
In New York they can't obtain too
many. even enough men to work on
the burned hulks of the three great
steamers which were in the SS,000,000
fire at Hoboken.
They are busy at this station also.
Nearly all the men and materials are
in use.
The steamer Rescue, Captain lie
Cato. is towing the Norwegian steamer
Sanga. from Tampico. Mexico.
The Sanga started from Mobile to
TampiCo laden with coal. She got into
distress and her crew left her in search
OF relief. They got relief and took the
vessel to Tampico for temporary re-
pairs.
There the Mexican authorities claim
cd the vessel on the ground that she
had been abandoned. She was not re-
leased till Saturday, when the Rescue
started with her for New York. She is
expected to arrive there. in tow. July
is There the work OF repairing will be
completed to enable the Sanga to so
to sea again.
She is Il fine large vessel and too
valuable to lose without even this
costly effort.
Wrecking steamer Fred Sharp towed
the Norwegian steamer Frames into
IiiNana WIN II cargo OF railroad iron.
She went ashore on Hog Sly Reef. Ba-
hamaS.
Captain William Hagerty is in com
mand of the Fred Sharp. He is ac-
compnnied by II Wrccking crew under
Captain John Hagerty. The wrecking
expedition has been thoroughly sue
cessful and the salvage is immense and
valuable.
The sharp and crew will return to
Norfolk next week.
Captain Toollcr with full wrecking
crew is at work on the British steamer
Copenhagen at Fort I.audcrdalc. Fla.
She sailed from Philadelphia with a
general cargo. mostly railroad iron.
but got caught in Il storm on the Flor
ida coast. There are excellent pros
poets for saving both ship and cargo.
