ANOTHER GRAND OLD MAN

Chief Washable is dead. He vas a
grand old man himself. in his way.
Born a prince among savages, he grew
70 manhood before he ever saw a mem
Der of the race destined to conquer his
people and appropriate his empire.
He was a brother Of ArimO. another
famous chief who led the Shoshones in
the hunt and on the warpath in the
days OF the buffalo, when the smoke
curled from Indian villages in every
valley. ArimO died near Pocatello
about five years ago. Both men were
well known to most of the early settlers
of Utah and Idaho.
Washable was more Of a warrior
than was ArimO, but both were kind
hearted and philosophical in their re-
ceptiOn of the white settlers. They
seemed to look upon the encroachment
Of civilization as inevitable, and to real
ize the futility of placing obstacles in
the way. They lived to see the whole
trans Mississippi region pass from its
original owners to another race: and
the gradual dwindling of their people
to a few white tribal remnants eooped
up here and there on reservations and
guarded with TROOPS is one Of the most
pathetic scenes in American history.

THAT AMENDMENT.

In the opinion of the Provo Enquirer
the proposed constitutional amendment
for the suppression of polygamy is the
most important matter to be considered
in the coming congressional campaign.
It wants a man sent to congress who
viii be able to exert an influence with
the majority there to defeat the meas
ure. Naturally it contends that only
an avOwed gOldbug who stands ready
to vote with the Republican party on
all party questions will meet the re-
quirements.
The question" says the Enquirer,
'is how best to work against the threat
ened legislation"
Who, besides the Enquirer, John
Henry Smith and Judge Bartch. is 60
ing to oppose an anti-polygamy amend
ment to the constitution? Is that to
be the issue upon which the Republican
candidate for congress expects to go
before the people Of Utah next month =?
Every effort to campaign along the
lines suggested by the Enquirer will be
"a reflection upon the sincerity Of Presi-
dent Shows recent proclamation con-
corning polygamy.
The Enquirer's position is understood
and it will meet with general sympa-
thy no doubt. but a fight made in Utah
upon the proposed amendment would
not only be regarded with suspicion by
the rest Of the country. it would arouse
a distrust more general than exists to-
day, and tend TO convince the world
that the practice now believed TO be
confined to the few is actually shielded
and defended by the many
Lobbyists that opposed Roberts mot
counting the Enquirer, which also
fought him and gave aid and encour-
agement to those lobbyists) are vigor-
ously working for this amendment, says
the Enquirer which adds:
Steps should be taken TO eounteraet that
work. and We know of no better way than
to send back an able Republican repre-
sentative. A Democrat has very little
force or prestige at the national capftal
at the present time. be he ever so able.
And it may be just as well to say to
cur Provo contemporary that no one
could have less influence or prestige at
the national capital just now than a
man elected on the platform and for
the purpose suggested by the Enquirer.

/ he may be identified

TAKES 1T SERIOUSLY.

Ogden's leading Republican news
paper seems to take seriously the indis-
eliminate assault of the Tribune on the
newspapers Of Utah, including those of
it's own party. Taking as a text the fol
lowing:
Some have cuddled beneath the wing of
capital. and their record is a long and
melancholy table Of deficits
The Standard makes the application
when it says:
Who put the present management in
control of the TTibune2 Was there any

OLGk'S ARREST.

Olga NethersOIe has made a ten
strike. She ought to be ashamed, per-
haps. for appearing in a play which
shocked the modesty of the New York
Journal. but il may be that yellow
journals. like I'm de steele audiences,
take pleasure in being shocked.
The actress was arrested and allowed
to go on with her performances. Com
mon decency demanded her arrest. it
is said, and popular clamor, no doubt,
insisted on her going ahead with the
show.
1t has been about forty years since
the eastern public blushed over the ap-
pearance of the BLACK Crook" Such
a scandal was raised about the demon
allzing tendencies Of this dramatic
monstrosity that the whole country
grew wild to see It. The result was a
pressing invitation from every leading
theatre in the land and a fortune FIR

Olga never struck a better bit of adj
vertising in her life. New York aud
fences have applauded the Carmens and
Little Egypts, wept with the Ca
miles, encored La Traviata." and

"SECRET ALLIANCES.

Secretary Hays contention that no
form of secret alliance is possible under
the constitution" might be taken as
serious refutatIon of Consul Macrum's
charges if that document were in better
repute with the administration. No
one supposes a little thing like che
constitution would be allowed to stand
in the way of any scheme the politi-
clans at Washington might have in
view.
II the constitution seemed to prevent
an agreement between Chamberlain
and Mckinley. how long does any one
acquainted with the drift of affairs at
our national capital imagine it would
take 20 punch another hole through our
fundamental law
Whether it be called an alliance or
a covenant. "a secret understanding or
d promise conditioned upon McKnley's
recollection. il has been but a few days
since Lord Rosebcry said in speech
in parliament: Last December the
British government made vigorous
overtures to two great powers-Ger-
alliance"
Such an alliance then was solicited.
No public treaty was possible. The
best that could be given was a secret
promise, an official understanding that
the heads Of this government, wrapped
in the emblem Of liberty and en-
trenched behind the bulwarl1s of cen
tralized power. would exert themselves
10 prevent any official expression Of
sympathy for the Beers or any offer
of mediation to save them from Eng
fish rapacity. This promise may have
been made. In fact, British officials
seem to act on the assurance that such
an arrangement exists.
1t has not been many weeks since
Joseph Chamberlain said in a public
speech: The uniOn-the alliance. if
you please-between these two great
nations american and British) is in
deed a guarantee Of the peace Of the
world
Therefore, when Consul Macrum
states that when I accepted my post
as consul at Pretoria I knew nothing
of any secret alliance between America
and Great Britain" why should our
Anslicized secretary Of state become
so agitated over it?
Chamberlain knew about it, the
alliance" B0sebery suspected it, Mac
rum discovered evidences Of it and
the least that Hay says the soonest
mended.
