Frink.s Nomination Assured.

The anti-Ankeny feeling is spreading
and growing in intensity in every part
OF the state. The managers and the
methods of Mr.. Ankeny have given
deep offense TO men who are both true
Republicans and believers in honesty
and purity in politics Their resent
ment at the forced injection by Mr..
Ankeny's henchmen Of the senatorial
issue into this campaign is matched by
their determination 70 put an end to
the employment Of influences and
agencies that are scandal to the par
ty and the state. Everywhere the An
kenyites who have challenged the is
sue are receiving an unwelcome reply.
The primaries in Pierce county gave
decisive vote against the Ankeny peo-
pie. Unless they resort to their accus-
tened methods when defeated. the con-
vention today win choose a delegation
favorable to Mr.. Frink. The general
and emphatic rebuke administered
throughout the state to what Mr. An
keny represents in politics. and to his
shameless employees. is one OF the most
wholesome political signs of the times.
Mr.. Frink profits by the anti-Ankeny
uprisins as well as by the elements IT
POLITICAL strength in his campaign. He
Is well and favorably known to the peo-
rIe of the state. and his popularity has
shown an extraordinary increase since
his candidacy was announced. He is
the representative Of united King

the state has promised to grant when
Cd came with solid front and men trrc
10 her and to themselves. He stands
for the best interests OF the party and
the state, ana no power or persuasion
can hold the people away from l,isn.
County after county has swung into
''ne. The opposition. without a candi-
date or an argument against him, il re-
duced to mere helpless. blind attempt
to disorganise. The Frink forces are
solid. growing. triumphant. Already his
managers can count more than the
plumber of votes necessary to nominate
which are pledged to his support. with
out including Pierce and the other coun-
ties whose conventions are yet TO be
held. He viii be nominated on the first
ballot. All praise to the Republicans Of
Washington who are coming so nohly

THE DEAD R0BBER
A Face as Repulsive as Ever Was
Shown in Picture. ID. N.
Wheeler Adds Something to
the Tale.

D. N. Wheeler the photographer who
went to Thompson's Springs yesterday
at the request of the sheriff OF Grand
county, Utah, to take photographs Of the
roober killed near that point, returned
home las5 night.
He took three negatives of the dead
robber. This morning the negatives
were developed and prints made from
them and never was more repulsive face
shown than is that of the desperado.
II ever the picture OF mans soul was
depicted upon his countenance, therein
showing all the base passions to which
the man was heir, those pictures taken
yesterday show those conditions in the
robber.
One of the Photographs shows the man
with long struggling beard, another
with lmooth shaven face and still anoth-
er taken while the body of the man was
lying down. 1t is hard to express the re-
pulsiveness of the features. In death
they are simply horrible, in life, when
lit up with the base passions of the man,
his face must have been terrible to look
upon. Every linament of the mans face
shows that he mist have doubtless de-
voted his life doing deeds of inquity
cowardice and unlawful taking of human
life. AS gentlemen said while looking
at the pictures, the "nan should have
been killed on suspicion with such
face"
Mr. Wheeler said that Mess. Fullerton
King and Westwood had brought the
body OF the man distance OF seventy
five miles strapped to the back Of a
mule.
The posse had been in pursuit OF the
man for quite some time When Fuller
ton and King ran on to the party of
three, instead OF two as the dispatch said
yesterday, they were at once ordered to
turn back and they quickly did SO. AT
the time the three desparados had COW
OF the brand over which Fullerton pre-
sides tied and thrown to the ground.
He knew two OF the men, but the one
who was afterward killed he was unac-
quainted with.
The people at Thompsons say that the
dead man tallies exactly with the de-
scription of one of the men concerned in
the Union Pacific train robbery and the
authorities believe at last that they have
run down one of the robbers at least
The dead man had two fairly good
horses and a saddle, which was made in
Montana.

Mons Bau bolS.

Among the vagaries of fashion may
be cited the habit which men have
formed of wearing bracelets. This
fashion comes from Italy and Austria.
where it is very prevalent The prince
of Wales wore on his left arm for
many years a bracelet which belonged
to the unfortunate Macmillan, en-
peror of Mexico. The queen of Eng
lands second son. the duke of SAKE
Coburg, not only wears q bracelet, but
he has a chain round his neck. The
example, as may be seen, comes from
high quarters, and it Is natural that
princes should have many imitators,
not only among those around them but
further afield The prince of Wales
sets the fashion in dress and the slight
est fancy of his is accepted, as rule.
The latest talk is of the prince fasten-
ing his frock coat with coat link. We
do not think the fashion will find imi-
tators in France. Our young men
have adopted uncut stones set in gold
for waistcoat buttons. but these links
for frock coat appear too marked for
us. The prince dc Sagan might have
risked them, but assursdly no one
would have followed his example

THE NEW LOWELL SCHOOL
rs PRESENTED WITH A
BEAUTIFUL FLAG.
Inspiring Services-Oration by G.
W. Steele-Children Receive
the Emblem With En-
thusiasm and Cheers

Patriotism fairly dubbed this morn
occasion of the presentation of the fine
large flag to the school, by G. w. Rundle
Camp No. 81. Womans Relief Corps.
Gathered in front OF the Lowell school
building were the pnpils OF the various
schools, with their teachers. Many Of
the scholars held flags in their hands
and the scene was an inspiring and pa
triotic one.
Promptly on the minute the scholars
who were assembled. under the leader
ship of Miss Helen Dewey, began sing
ing an inspiring patriotic anthem. I'm
mediately following Prof. Miller, super
intendent of the public schools Of the
city, who acted as master OF ceremonies,
introduced Charles w. Steele, the orator
of the occasion.
Without any other preliminaries Mr..
Steele delivered his speech. 1t was an
able effort and reflected credit upon Mr..
Steele, both the sentiment which ran
through his speech and the manner Of

Fourteen years ago the Grand Army
Post of Grand Junction, assisted by the

iliary thereto, presented to the public
schools OF this city an American flag.
Since that first flag presentation was
made time has unfolded another bright

The Rev. Calvin S. Blackwell,
ID. d., preached striking sermon
In the First Baptist Church of
Wilmington, last Sunday night
from the text, The making of
many books there is no end :" his
subject was The Making of
Books, Printers, Telegraphers and
Newspaper men," Mr.. Blackwell
did not adopt the plan, which is
so common with many preachers,
of attacking the press; on the
contrary, he declared that 1.-The
printing Office is school, college
and university for the brightest
lntellects of every age," and ad-
ded:
"A newspaper office is a sch ool
of unselfishness. No other class
serves a community 80 we'll and
too often for 80 little pay, either
in cash or appreciation. Every
day and night the newspaper Is
doing free work for the general
betterment of the community. If
lawyer was called nnnn bv the
city authorities to do for the city
the same amount and no more
valuable writing than that which
every newspaper does free every
day the charga would be $50 or
more. If the newspapers were to
cease for week it would be as
dark and lonesome as if the pail
of an eclipse covered us, and Will
mington would be to the outside
world practically as though she
were not"
DR.. Blackwell is right. The
newspapers do more free work
for the communities in which
they are printed than any other
institutions or individuals. 1t ia
bad enough to work without pay
it is worse to work without ap.
probation. The pulpit is too
often in antagonism to the press,
and the newspaper appears to be
a favorite subject for moralizing
on the part of ministers.
The preachers will know better
after awhile possibly. 1t is graf.
flying to find one, here and there,
who is disposed to give credit
where credit is due.-News and

That disaster threatens Great
Britain as a result Of the war in

John w. Foster, of Indiana,
former Secretary of State. Mr..
Foster, who is recognized as
one Of the foremost authorities
in this country on subjects of
diplomacy, said to-day:

England is engaged in pro-

ingly costly enterprise in her

that in the end, through the
might of numbers and superior
resources, England will win,
but that will by no means end
the struggle. At the present
rate progress is not only slow

crease the difficulties of the sit

said with respect to a solution
