THAT AMENDMENT.


The proposed CONSTITUTIONAL amend

ISOLATION of this state will not meet with
any formidable opposition in Utah, for
public sentiment i'm this state is against
the practice of polygamy and the last
remnants of the plural marriage sys-
tenn Will soon be obliteIated, with or
without a. constitutional amendment.
While il is clearly an attempt TO in
yade the exclusive jurisdiction of the
state and an invitation for federal in
reference i'm state affairs, no remon-
STRANGE can be raised in Utah which
would not be misunderstood, and no de-
Tense of the constitution made that

HoNoRED THE SOLDIER DEAD.

Business was suspended. the schools
were deserted, flags were haf-mas,ed
and crowds thronEed the streets yes
terday afternoon to dc honor to the
men who did honor to the state whose
lives had been sacrificed in the mill
tary service Of their country.
The funerals were appropriate and
the farewelIs touching. Marks Of s]n-
cere mourning We're seen on every hand
The procession was martial and the
ceremonies were impressive at the
graves.
1t was in every way fitting tribute
to the heroic dead-a proof that the
American people honor those who serve
the republic faithfully and well.
Men may differ as To public policies.
but no one disputes the valor Of the
volunteers or has a word to say against
the courage of the men who compose
the American army. They have been
tried in the hot crucible of war and
their manhood and patriotism have
stood the test.
They were our neighboT boys a while
ago. The bugIe called to battle They
answered, and duty found no truer
manlier devotees. They sacrificed their
lives. their all. as soldiers expect to do
when they enlist.
They We're entitled to a soldiers
burial, and it is TO the credit Of the
city and state that they received every
token Cf appreciation and respect
The mufned drums sad roll has beat
Tho soldiers last tattoo
Nc more on life's parade shall meet
The brave ana fallen few,
On f8me's eternal camping ground
Their silent tents are spread.
And glory guards with solemn round
The biVOUdC of tho dead.

GoLDsUGs HEDGING.

Mr.. Bryan's reception in the east has
filled Republican leaders with oonster-
nation Men who have been declaring
that bimetallism was reputation. are
beginning to hedge. Orators who have
wept above the grave of free coinage
are already talking Of the resurrection.
Editors who furnished obituaries for
the silver cause are preparing TO take
il all back
Senator Aldrich has been shouting at
the top Of his voice for three years that
silver is dead" and that bimetaliism
is a creed of dishonor. Yet he brings
into the senate an amendment to the
gold standard bill declaring that moth
ing in it should be construed as pre-
venting future agreement Of The Unit
ed Sta,es with foreign nations to put
gold end silver upon an equal footing.
II silver is dead why should the sena-
tor admit the possibility of its becoming
a live issue? If the gold standard is
the only honest basis for our monetary
system why shouldn't Republicans try
to prevent an agreement like that des-
ignated by the senator? IF bimetaIIism
is dishonest why should those who
characterize il as dishonest wish to re-
move obstacles from the path OF its re-
turning?
The amendment is a fraud on the face
Of it, evidently proposed for the benefit
Of senators of the Shoup and Wolcott
brand. who are out of favor at home
and desire a silver coating for the gold
pill they expect to swallow.
Wolcctt's speech on this amendment
Will avail him r9thiGg. What the peo-
pie of Colorado and Idaho want to see
IS how their senators vote on the finan-
cial measure now before the nation.

Washington, May Sim view Of the
recent eight-hour movement through
out the country the report made to the
House OF Representatives today by
Chairman Gardner of the committee on
labor on the Gardner eight-hour bill.
and the general subject of eight-hour
legislation has timely irv@est. The
bill requires a clause in all government
contracts that the labor under the con-
tract shall not exceed eight hours
daily. The report says in part:
Ii is contended by the advocates OF
the shorter day that the additional
leisure given to labor In every instance
of the shortening of the work cay, has
resulted in a decrease of intemperance
among laborers. the requirement of
better taste and new and bet

homes, greater felicity ana q
higher degree of intellils nee w.tn an
increase of laudable pride as to the
clothing of themselves and those de-
pendent upon them. In a word. 1t has
