A SPL ENDID ACHIEVEMENT.

st. Mary's cathedral, the new Catho-
lie edifice whose cornerstone was con-
secrated yesterday by Archbishop Rior-
dan. is a magnificent monument to the
religious zeal of the Catholics of this
region. With Bishop Scanlan, their
able, efficient head, they have long
looked forward to the day when their
faith should have a temple of worship
commensurate with the Importance of
the organization here. Their hopes are
to be realized, and yesterdays exercises
mark the first step toward that
achievement.
This realization Of a great purpose
has been accomplished so quietly. with
so little flourish of trumpets that few
people, outside thOse directly interested,
realize the Importance of the task so
happily approaching completion. The
new cathedral when finished, will be
one OF the finest architectural designs
in the country; it will be the most i'm
posing church edifice in the intermoun-
tain region, and it will be the center
of Catholic activity in n vast territory
Credit for the success of this under
taking is largely due to Bishop Scan
ian, whose piety, broad liberality of
spirit and wisdom in administration,
have endeared him, not only to the
communicates of his own faith. but to
every one who knows him or knows of
him. Bishop Seaman is most fortu-
nate in having wealthy parishioners
who recognized their religious obliga-
tons and have contributed generously
from their wealth to the cathedral
fund. Nor should it be forgotten that
the Catholics of smaller means have
done their full share toward this
browning effort of the church in Salt
Lake.
The Herald joins host of well-wish-
ers in congratulating Bishop Seaman
and his people on this added evidence
of their strength and prosperity.

SUCCESS IN IDAHO.

All friends of bimetaIlism, of Ameri-
canism and of honest politics have rea-
son to rejoice over the result of the
conventions at Pocatello While the
POpulists refused TO assist in the over
throw Of the common enemy, the fol-
lowers of Jefferson and the followers of
Lincoln have entered into an alliance
that means utter defeat for the party
of the gold standard and imperialism.
The Democratic and silver Repub-
hcar conventions were composed of pa
tIiotic citizens whose devotion to prin-
ciple outweighed all personal consider
atoms and individual ambitions. They
kept constantly in view the welfare of
their state and the advancement of a
sacred cause, and while there were
honest differences as to methods. the
spirit of patriotism ruled supreme. and
eventually brought all together in har-
mOnious action.
To bring about this coalition it was
necessary TO nominate a candidate for
the United States senate. That Du-
bois would be the choice of the fusion
lists was a foregOne conclusion. His
devotion TO the principle of independ-
ent bimetallism, his uncompromising
determination to fight for silver until
silver shall be restored to the position
IL occupied as a money metal before It's
decentralization under a Republican ad-
ministration in 1873, have identified him
with the cause throughout the land and
endeared him to friends of the white
metal everywhere.
The ticket throughout is a good and
a strong one. The leaders of
the tight against the ex-senator
have bowed to the will of the majority.
1t is a ticket that inspires confidence.
and the platform is one that appeals
to the patriotism and manhood of indie
pendent voters.
Governor Steunenberg undoubtedly
voices the sentiment of every friend
and follower of Bryan when he says.
y will support the ticket from top to
bottom, and viii do all 1 can to insure
its success. And I believe it will be sue
cessful.''
That with proper organization and
earnest effort the fusion ticket viii car

publicans. Deducting the Populist vote,

ing that half of the silver Republicans
of 1896 prove recreant to their princ.-
pies and support the gold standard this
year, which is altogether improbable.
and assuming also that all Populists
will aid the Mckinley cause by voting
a hopeless ticket, which is also inn
probable. making all of these conces-
sions and the Democrats and silver Re
publicans viii still win by a handsome
majority. The election returns of 1895
afford stiIl stronger justification for
predicting the success of the fusion
ticket. In that year also the Populists
refused TO join with the other parties
and the Democrats and silver Repub-

licans elected their ticket, polling more
votes than both of the other parties
combined. OF course. it is we'll
understood that the Mckinley adj
nlinistration is under great obligations
to Senator Shoup for his base betrayal
of the people of his state, and will send
out a large corruption fund in the dis
charge of those obligations, but the
knowledge of this fact will serve as an
incentive to extraordinary zeal on the
part of the honest citizens of the state,
and granting that the Hanna forces
are able to. round up every purchase
able vote, we do not believe they will
be brought even within sight of vic
tory.
1t is difficult to fathom the motives
of the Populists in their refusal to join
with the other reform parties. It is
apparent that majority of the del
egates went into the convention with
determination to defeat fusion. Such
course adds nothing to their own
strength, but tends to strengthen the
Hanna party. Information from Poca-
tello is that there were Hanna agents
and Hanna gold on the scene for the
purpose Of defeating fusion. We do
not know how many Populist delegates
were for sale, but If there were any,
they were able to command their price.
But no matter how it was accom-
phshed' the withdrawal of the Popu-
lists involves no serious peril to the
cause OF olmetallism, and the certain
defeat OF that arrant old political
fraud, George L. Shoup, is no. the least
OF the good results assured.

JOY IN THE SANCTUM.

"A Salt Lake editor who recently re-
considered his determination not to
stultify record of twenty years ser
vice for silver, now cracks his heels
with JOY every time a gold Democrat
OF the east announces that he will sup
port Mckinley because of his hostility
TO free coinage. In truth, this party
slave is trying nightly TO please his
new master and to earn his price. But
with reference to these gold Democrats
there IS not one of them s,1pDorting
Mckinley this year who did not sup
port him in 1896. They are all mem
hers OF the Cleveland crowd, who were
kicked out of the party by the Chi
cago convention and who recognized
the fact that the proper place for all
Cleveland goldbugs was within the,
Hanna party.
And this subsidized Hanna ORGAN
published here in Utah, expresses Ella
ton over the fact that all of the Gro
yer Cleveland goldbugs are against
Bryan, because they are opposed To
free coinage. and approvingly quotes
their silly charge that bimetallism is
population" If it believes that such
work will injure Bryan in a state in
which according to its own statements.
30 per cent of the voters believe in
free coinage, then does it's stupidity
rank with its venality.

TRIPLES!

Our cars are no better-in themselves
than the cars of other lines 1t is
what is INSIDE them that makes them
more comfortable.
For instance: The seats in our re-
clining chair cars are provided with
linen head pieces-clean and cool Our
dining cars have electric fans. and are
gorgeously decorated with flowers. In
every car is a thermometer, which the
porter constantly consults in order to
keep the temperature of his car as
nearly uniform as possible.
By themselves, these things are trl-
fies, but the sum total Of them goes
long way toward making a trip over
