NEwLANDs' ITINERARY.
Our Congressman Has Expectations
of the Success of Bryan.

Hon. Francis G. Newlands has re-
turned from tour of the eastern part
of the State. He visited the mining
camps of White Pine and Lincoln
county, and found that the fusion
ticket promised to win by vote of
three to one. In these counties the
Republican party has no organization
and no ticket. No one there dares to
announce his candidacy on the Repub-
lican platform.
Four large audiences were addressed
in Utah by Mr.. Newlands. He re-
ceived cordial reception there, and is
ofthe opinion that Bryan will sweep the
State by an overwhelming majority.
Mr. Newlands stated to journal re-
porter that he is receiving many en-
oouraging letters from the eastern
States. They indicate growing change
of sentiment there from Mckinley to
Bryan.
''New York State,n said Mr.. New

a Woaeeri,i Cf:cr to Women.

We have received word of a most remark
able offer which is TO be made to women by
The Delineotor, of New York.
Taking the fact that next year begins q
new century, The Delineotor offers to distri-
butte $l7,500 among 1901 women. The plan
is so cleverly arranged that woman living in
small town or village, has just as good
chance to win one of these 1901 prizes as a
woman living in a city-because the prizes
are given for the number of subscriptions
secured in town in proportion to the popu-
laton of that town, instead of being given
simply to those who send the largest list of
snbscribers-which, of course, are most easily
obtained in big cities. Another clever feature
OF the plan is, that all the cities and towns of
the United States and Canada have been ar
ranged in seven classes. The cities of the
greatest population are grouped in Glass l,
and as these cities are not very many, the
prizes offered are twenty-eight; the high
est prize being $500, and the lowest S.
The total amount OF prizes given away in this
class IS $1,000. The remaining smaller towns
and villages fall into SIX other classes, and as
the number of towns in a class increases. be-
cause, of course, there are more small towns
than large ones, the amount of prizes given
away to class increases, so that in Class 7,
there will be $4,000 distributed among Sol
winners.
Furthermore, to everyone who fails to win
one of the 1901 prizes there will be paid an
extra commission on subscriptions, provided
they equal one out of every two hundred in
habitants of the town from which the con-
testant sends them.
This is altogether very liberal offer, and
one which the famous old Delineator is we'll
able to make good From our point of view,
we do not see why such an offer needs to be
made by the Publishers of The Del,neator, for
we believe it already has nearly half million
subscribers. It's strong hold upon the affec-
tons of American women has come in the
past generation, from its practical advice
about dress details and home matters.

A man giving his name as F. R.
Tanner, and claiming to be nephew
of Governor Tanner of Illinois, pur-
chased lot of horses from Bob Grim
mon and the Raycraft Bros. at Carson,
drew check in their favor on bank
in Illinois for 81 900 and at the same
time gave them another for $500, which
he requested them to draw for himself,
saying he was short that amount on
the money he needed to prepay the
freight. The checks were returned to
the Bullion Bank and the Illinois peo-
pie knew of no such person. The Ray

A dispatch from London yesterday says:
Lord Salisbury, who was entertained at

Conservative Association. made an impor-
tant announcement regarding the govern
ment's South African policy.

We're accused of going to war for lust of
gold and territory. 1t was of those
atrocious calumnies which, under the favor
ing influences of DR.. Leyds, spread Itself
over the press of Europe. Nothing could be
more untrue. We went to war to abate OPP
preston of the queens subjects in the
TranSvaal and because our circumstances
were met by an insulting ultimatum, to
which. if the queens government had sub
mitted, her power not only in South Africa,
but over her colonies and dependencies.

into war by the action of our opponents.
ITO say that because we repudiated the
greed of territory we therefore bound our
selves never to annex any territory is a
most ridiculous msconstruction. l dwell
or this point because this matter of anneXa-
ton is about to become a burning ques-

I'VE have made tremendous sacrifice of
blood and treasure in this conflict. and the
only certainty of preventing recurrence of
this fearful war is to insure that never
again shall such vast accumulations of ar
maments occur, and that not shred Of the
former independence of the republics shall
remain. (Cneering)
We are not yet at the end of the war,
but l shall venture to lay it down as a pri-
mary condition of any future settlement
that precautions will be taken of such a
character that such a war will never occur
again. 1t will also be our duty to protect
those native races who have been so sorely
afflicted and at the same time so to conduct
their policy that, far as possible. there

Consul General stowe at Cape Town
Sends Out a Warning.
Consul General Stowe at Cape Town has
reported to the Department of State, I'M
der date of April Is, upon the subject of
the incoming of Americans into the colony
at this time. He sends a most earnest
warning to the large number of Americans
without means and in search Of employ
ment not to come to the colony at this
time. Even after the war, when everything
is settled, they should not come, he says,
without goodly sum of money in pocket
for emergencies.
The consul general had previously re-
ported to the department the plight of a
ed at the Cape, having crossed on the mule
transports; and he says that there are still
many others coming in without means. AS
a matter of fact, positions of all kinds in
this time of war are unobtainable outside
of the army. Hundreds are out of work,
and Brftons are very naturally given the
preference in employment. The cost of
living is increasing, hotels and boarding
houses are oYerf1owing and accommoda-
lions are not to be had. Provisions have
advanced 80 per cent; eggs are worth 8
cents each; the cheapest meat is % cents
per pound; milk sells at 16 cents per quart,
and vegetables, never in sufficient supply
in time of peace, are not brought in to
supply half the demand. Even clothing is
