Clark case would seem to indicate that
an agreement had been reached be-
tween the Democrats and Republics
Of the committee whereby the Hanna
case VIII be taken UP at an early date
and investigated with 4 similar inter-
est and desire to know the worst.
If the senate proceeds now to seat
Quay, whose every public and official
act is tainted with bribery and STEPPED
in corruption. who has been repudiated
by the legislature Of his state and seeks
admission to the senate OH a dictated
commission from his handmade ex-
ecutive, it will establish record for
Inconsistency that win ever afterward
defy precedent and sneer at consist
ency.
What a precious coterie of moral re-
formers are these TO sit in Judgment on
any man or any state-Hanna, PIatt.
Quay Elkins, shoup. Fairbanks and
Deboe!
The result of this investigation is an
other argument in favor of the election
OF senators by a direct vote OF the peo-
pie. The Democrats of Utah believe
in this. 1t is a Democratic principle.
1t is plank in the Democratic plat
form.
There are many reasons why public
officials should be elected by a direct
vote Of the people. 1t would end these
scandals, some Of which are due to at
tempted bribery and many of which
are started by disappointed factions
or opposing parties for the purpose of
injuring the chances of the leading can
didate, as Clark and his friends declare
was the case with his election
If an amendment to the constitution
proposing the election of senators by
popular vote were submitted 10 the va
rious legislatures we question if a
Democratic vote would be recorded in
opposition to it. Il the action of the
recent Utah Republican convention
means ANYTHING. it means that such
an amendment would encounter gen.
eral and emphatic Republican opposi-
ton.

STILL OUR HERO.

Dewey has a night 70 aspire TO the
presidency OF the United States. he
was born in this country. He fulhils all
the constitutional requirements
But there is one question the AmeT1-
can voter has grown accustomed to
asking of presidential candidates which
might embarrass the brave admiral
very greatly if he should attempt an
answer. What political principle does
he stand for?
According to his own frank admls-
sions he never voted in his life. All
his relatives are Republicans When
he left the land to sail the non-partisan
seas the double monetary standard was
defended by all parties as 1.-THE money
of the constitution"
He never heard OF this new tangled
gold standard fad Of the London bank
ers until after his return from Manila
He believes in expansion, but not IN
wars of conquest. He has deprecated
the bloodshed in Luzon more than
once. He has said in his official re-
ports on file in the Office Of the secre-
tary of the navy that he considers the
Fil,pinos more capable Of self govern
ment than are the Cubans, who ARE
and of right ought to be- as congress
has declared and the president has re-
iterated, ''free and Independent"
In choosing his party it is safe to
say he selected the American side OK
the important issues now before the
people. He mas identified himself with
the opposition 70 Toryism. And tbs
much Of politics be knows.
But ne doesn't know and doesn't
pretend &c know a thing about the
tariff, about banking. about coinage,
about political history or partisan con-
troversies. There is about him an in
nocence Of these matters which might
fttingly be described as charming. And
yet, if he were nominated it would be
called "deplorable ignorance" by an
irreverent opposition.
The gnexampled consideration shown
him by his eountrymen would be poor
ly rewarded if half Of them used his
name as slogan and the other half
made a target OF his fame.
Already, since his announcement that
he is a Democrat and political factor.
arrangements for the celebration of
Dewey day have been Cancelled. Down
in Nephi the other day the teachers
and authorities Of the public schools
decided to abandon the programme for
Dewey day on account Of this new de-
parture. This is a sample of what the
admiral may expect if he enters the
political arena
It isn't fair; it isn't patriotic. This
new revelation of a novel and interest

should not be allowed to obscure the

or the victim Of an honest, almost boy

ADVERSE TO CLARK.

It was shown in the Clark senatorial
bribery investigation that much money
was used Tor the purpose Of influencing
the Montana legislature one way or an
other during the recent senatorial cleo
ton. Whether it was all used by
Clark's friends, or by Days friends,
in the interest Of an election or for
the purpose of securing a deadlock is
not entirely clear, but the committee
on elections, in its report agreed upon
yesterday. decides that the senator
elected should not retain his seat.
There is seldom a senator elected any
more but charges and counter-charges
Of this character are made. They have
been made against the legislatures of
New York, Pennsylvania, Ohio, West
Virginia, Illinois, Michigan. Idaho, Cal
ifornia and other states where men of
some wealth have been sent to the
senate. In only two cases that we re-
call have charges of corruption been
filed with the senate-the cases Of Han
ma and Clark. The former was charged
with bribery by members of his own
political party, and the Republican leg
islature of Ohio took up those charges.
made 4 thorough investigation and
substantiated them; it was therefore
over the protest and in the face of The
accusation OF the legislature from
which he claimed an election that
Mark Hanna applied for and received
admission into the senate of the United
States. Demands for a senatorial in
vestigation were persistently disre-
garded in the case Of Hanna and the
sworn complaints of legislators are re-
posing snugly in some committee pigeon
hole yet if they have not in the mean
time been destroyed

The sale by the Caswell brothers
Of their Thunder mountain proper
tY to Col. W. Ii. Dewey is reported
by the Boise Statesman. Col. Dew.
ey agrees to pay 100000 for the
claims; be also agrees 10 construct
q wagon road from the state wagon
road in Bear valley to the property
and erect mill at the mine The
terms of his contract are such that
he will prosecute the necessary de-
yelopment on the claims in advance
of making payment for them. The
property secured by Col. Dewey en-
braces group of ten or dozen
claims on the famous Thunder
mountain, including the two from
which the Caswells have secured
such rich results by placer mining.
The other claims extended up the
mountain, covering a portion of
the wonderful deposit. There is
practically a mountain of ore, esti-
mated to run from $40 to 20 ton
in gold. Whether or not it can be
properly termed ledge has not
been determined but it seems to be
a great dyke OF mineral bearing
rock.

There is only one territory of any
size, and never has been but one,

latiop, from which woman is abso-

reaches, to all females it has been
forbidden ground. This bachelors
Arcadia is situated on a bold plat
eau between the old peninsula of
Acte, in the Grecian Archipelago,
and the main land. Here, in the
midst of cultivated fields and exten

confederation of Greek christians,
with twenty three converts, and
and numbering more than seven
thousand souls, and not one of the
monasteries dates from later time
than the twelfth century. A few
soldiers guard the borders of this
anti-female land, and no woman is
allowed to cross the frontier Nor
is this all the rule is extended to
every female creature, and from
time immemorial no COW, mare, hen
