UTAH AND POLITICAL "BooDLE'"

The ogden standard returns 10 tho
charge that the News must be
blind II Il has not heard the tax
OF money to be used in Utah politics
In order TO escape from our criticism. as
TO It's mixed metaphors, 1t explains
that IL meant mentally blind. That
does not hela the matter even a little
bit. II is equivalent 70 saying a person
ia 30 mentally blind that he cannot
hear the talk about money, or so
physically blind that he cannot hear
the sound Of the chlnk when put INTO
use for politics. In either case the dis
crepancy Is palpable. but that Is oil
small moment
The important question is as 10 the
alleged danger Of corruption in the
opening state campaign. The Standard
says;
'The talk OF money 10 come 10 the
state IL we were defeated was so louu
In Provo that It's reverberations shooh
the windows in the editorial rooms OF
the News and rs editor now refuses
TO admit that he either saw or heard
what took place
II there is no more foundation for the
statement about the improper use OF
money in Utah, than the imaginary
shaking Of the Windows at this office
IT is certainly a baseless bit OF sheer
Imagination The only Teverbera-
lions Of the kind we know anything
about are the reports that come from
our neighbor the Standard. Refuses
TO admit" does not describe our posi-
ton at all We positively deny that
We have heard anything about the
corrupt use Of money in this campaign,
except the covert charges made by the
Standard. And the notion that We could
see the talk In Provo from our office in
this city. needs no argument 10 show It's
ahsurdity
Our Ogden contemporary stlll stick
ing 10 the cry Of "boodle.' says
I'VE know that money is being used
by wealthy men OF both parties In
Utah today, but Il would be hard 10

Why, so2 II It is being used or prom
ised for the purpose Of political de

cares,
IAN the indications pointed 10 prep
alations for a campaign IN which the IL
legitimate use Of money would be a
great factor"
What the News desires is some-
thing more specific We win join the
STANDARD in warning TO the public, or
in an exposure OF any scheme 10 core
rupt the voters or the politics of our
State, II something definite Is brought
forward as a reason for alarm The
mere rumors which the STANDARD re-

Death of Mrs. A. G. Ross

Mrs. Susan Ross, daughter of Mr..
and Mrs. Frank Suter, of near Hoyes,
this county, and beloved wife of
County Commissioners Clerk Albert
q. Ross, died at her home in Oakland
on last Sunday morning at 10 o'clock
after an illness of typhoid-pneumonia
of several weeks duration.
The deceased was an estimable and
loving wife, whose affection for her
husband and two bright little BOYS
was attested by her devotion to their
welfare. She was born on December
30, 1868, and was therefore in her 32d
year. She was married to Mr.. Ross
about nine years ago.
Her funeral took place from her late
home on Tuesday afternoon at 2.30
o'clock, which was largely attended.
The services were conducted by Rev.
A. Mick and Rev. J. M. Davis, of the
M. E. church. The flowers upon the
coffin were of numerous designs and
very beautiful. The pail bearers
were Messrs. F. A. Thayer, James G..
Peddicord, Edwin L. Mitchell, A. D.
Naylor, Thomas Little and Charles j.
Newman.
The sympathy of the entire COM
munity is extended to Mr.. Ross in his
sad loss and great bereavement.

Election Forecasts.

New York Mail and Express.J
The multiplicity of election 'esti-
mates"from more or less authoritative
sources is becoming somewhat con-
fusing, though one significant feature
is noticeable in all of them-that they
agree that President Mckinley is to
be reelected, with not less than 26G
electoral votes to his credit. From
that minimum figure to 2S4 the fore
casters differ, though most of them
DOW range above the 271 votes given
Mckinley four years ago. The New
York Herald, after a complete and
impartial poll of the country, has pub
lished review of the situation and
prospects in each state, and in its tab
ulated tatement gave Mckinley 2S1
electors votes and Bryan 166. The
Herald undoubtedly searched for the
facts SO far as they could be had in
advance of the election, and its ex-
perienced correspondents throughout
the country could not have been mis-.
led. Their reports furnished the basis
for the prediction of 2S1 electoral
votes. 1t is worthy of note that nc
Democratic authority has yet come
forward to dispute the accuracy OF
the HerGld's figures.

1t could hardly have been expected
that the venerable Democratic candi-
date for the Vice Presidency would
make the most laughable contribu-
tion to the fun of the campaign. He
is no longer a colt, fetching mad
bounds and springing new kicks on
admiring observers. But Adlai has
quoted a prophesy of Lincoln's so
pertinent othe present occasion that
it has been put in big type and kept
standing as campaign scarecrow in
some of the Bryan newspapers. 1t
was said to have been written by
Lincoln in 1864, as follows:
But | see in the near future crisis
approaching that unnerves me and
causes me to tremble for the safety of
my country. As result of the war
corporations have been enthroned,
and an era of corruption in high
places will follow, and the money
power of the country will endeavor to
prolong its reign by working upon
the preiudices of the people until all
wealth is aggregated in few hands
and the Republic will be destroyed.
The New York Times has taken the
trouble to try to verify this Steven
sonian quotation. 1t cites Secretary
Hay (Mr. Lincoln's biographer) as
authority for the declaration that
the prophecy was launched in 1898,
having been communicated by Mr..
Lincoln's spirit to travelling spiritu-
list named Cora Hatch.
1t was hardly fair for Adlai when
he sprung this dolorous outgiving on
the country to conceal from his fell
low-citizens its posthumous charac-
ter. He should have told them how
it was ''hatched."

The Maryland County Vote.

THE Sixth district will give Dem
ocratic majority"
This is Senator Wellington's latest
prediction, made in anger and in that
supercillious manner which has be-
come so prominent since his apostasy
from the party that made the mistake
of sending him to the United States
Senate. Well does he know that his
prediction is false. Well does he know
that Congressman Pearre's reelection
is as certain as death and taxes.
While that district has been carried
by Democrats twice in the last thirty
years, it is a Republican stronghold,
and nothing but factional fights oyer
local issues can ever turn it aside
from its fidelity to the party. There
are no such squabbles going on now.
The Republicans are united, and Con-
gresham Pearre's majority in 1900
should be at least as large as it was in
1898.
Four years ago the Sixth district
gave Mckinley 4,305 majority, and
every county in the district except
Montgomery went for him, Allegany
giving him over !, 500 majority. Mont
gomery's majority for Bryan was less
than $50. In 1898, running for Con-
gress, Colonel Pearre carried the dis
trict by 1906, majority 200 larger
than that given to Mckinley. The
Congressman made a good record,
and is even stronger in this campaign
than in the former. Though he was
obliged to take weeks rest ON ac-
count of ill-health he is now hard at
work again, sure of reelection, and
sure that the district will give Nc
Kinley as big majority as it did in
1896.
Many predictions are being made
that the state outside of Baltimore
will give Bryan majority and that
the Republicans must depend on the
city vote, if they mean to carry the
state. That Mckinley will carry the
city is generally admitted, and it is a
very difficult matter to figure out
how he can possibly fail to carry the
counties as well. In 1896 he swept
the counties by 1000 majority, and
and in 1893 the Republicans carried
them by over 5000. To offset such
majorities there will certainly have
to be great change in the opinion Of
of the voters, and there ale at this
time no evidence of any such change
There are 90 counties in Maryland
and in 1896 all but four of them went
for Mckinley. The four Bryan coun
ties were Montgomery, Queen Annes
Wicomico and Worcester, all but ons
of them on the Eastern Shore. Ii
1893 the Democrats carried but o.
the 29 counties, and four of those
were on the Eastern Shore. Western

GET OUT THE VOTE.

The campaign is practically over.
The argument is closed and the peo-
pie have their minds made up. There
remains only the duty of getting out
the vote.
Republicans never had worthier
cause or candidates. All the prom
ises of 1896 have been kept and more.
Bryan's prophesies of disaster have
proved groundless and he stands a
false and discredited prophet.
The argument, the logic of the cam
paign is therefore overwhelmingly
with the Republicans. But the mat
ter does not end here. The vote must
be taken to the polls. Let ne Repub-
lican fail to perform the duty of vot-
ing next Tuesday and to see that his
neighbor votes also.

ACCORDING to the custom of years,
President Mckinley has appointed
the last Thursday in November as a
day of Thanksgiving. The proclama-
tion is admirably written. In few
paragraphs the President presents
many reasons why the people of the
United States should consider them
selves as highly favored. Not only
the material prosperity of the country
appeals to the sense of gratitude OF
the President, but also our escape
from pestilence, the extension ofouI
power and influence abroad and our
amicable relations with other nations
etc. The document bears evidence ol
sincere feeling and good taste.
