CANDIDATES FOR GOVERNOR

THIS governorship fight promises
to be a merry time. Every politician
OF prominence who is out a job is
looking for the republican nomina-
ton. General E. NJ Rogers, of
Viroqua, has an idea he is the man
the people want, and that he can do
the job in the approved fashion OF
Uncle Jerry Rusk, who used to be
his near neighbor. Ira Bradford.
who lives down at Augusta, also has
an idea chat he ought to be sit, = and
again offers himself for the several
it'll time for slaughter or nomina-
ton. Ira is a good church going
man and does not depart from
the Orthodox views of earthly
sports, so he finds it pleasant
diversion to rattle up state politics
occasionally. Your Uncle Steb-
bins has got it into his head that he
wants to run, and when the old
gentleman gets a notion into that
part of his anatomy he is bound to
stick until the last ditch is reached
and crossed, or he lies like Cronie's
Beers unable to 60 farther. Long"
Jones, the Waukesha senator, also
announces his determination to pull
for the coveted position, and since
he has been endowed by nature as a
natural runner, be will have at least
a physical advantage in his efforts
to outstrip the balance OF the boys.
''Bob" T.aFollette is expected to
show up some where to help make
the battle interesting. and a few
others may decide to take a whfrl at
the great game of politics and try
and land the job. The active can
vass that is being made promises to
liven things up ip the different
counties and a delightful game for
political prestige will follow

BULLER AGAIN RETREATING.

From the dispatches sent out from
Boer sources, Il appears that the lat
est effort Of General Butler 10 reach
Ladysmith has failed under clrcum-
stances very much similar to those at
tending the spion Kop episode. The
British captured a strategic point a
"kopie" this time instead Of a "kop"-
and held II for some time. and then
retreated.
II Is explained that perhaps his adj
vance was merely q stroke OF strategy
by which the attention OF the enemy
was TO be sverted from the central at
tack by Lord Roberts. which is expect
ga In the near future, but this theory
has very little TO support Il. II appears
more probable that after the fruitless
attempt TO turn the Boer right flank
al Spiou Kop, an effort was made at
the let flank, but with nc more sue
cess. The precarious situation OF Gen
eral White and his truly heroic force
sustlfes the supposition that General
Butler is straining every nerve to come
TO his relief.
The repeated repulses Of an attack
Ing army Is really no surprise, although
In the present war the British nation
feels keenly the humiliation Of the Sit
uation. A soldier In an entrenchment,
even II armed only with the obsolete
Springfield rife. Is supposed TO be equal

THE POSITION OF THE NEWS"


1t has been stated by some unscrup-
ulous persons, notably one who has
been the chief mover in the strife over
compulsory vaccination, that the Des-
eret News has affirmed that there have
been no cases Of smallpox In this city.
II is noticeable that during the con-
niot that has occurred, the advocates
OF force and despotism have mad little
TO say by way Of argument but a
great deal In Misrepresentation Of
those who stood up against their at
tempted tyranny
The Deseret News has not denied the
existence Of smallpox In this city. Pos
sibly there have been several cases
brought here from distance. But that
a number Of alleged cases Of that dis
ease are something essentially different
is believed not only by large number
Of private individuals, but also by
members OF the medical profession who
do not wish 10 raise the question under
present circumstances. We believe that
the matter has been greatly exagger-
ated, and shat business In this city has
been materially injured without sense
or reason
II is fact that cannot be fairly de-
MED. that there are many more eases
OF sickness in this city from vaccina-
ton than from smallpox. This, per-
haps. will be construed by the person
who has made I'D his mind that COM
pulsory vaccination shall be established
in this state, into opposition on the part
OF this paper to vaccination in any
case. That viii be Just as untrue as
other statements that have emanated
from the same source. We have simply
stated facts. and they may be con-
strued as our readers may determine,
Another thing which has been demon
strated IS, that smallpox may and does
frequently follow successful vaccina-
ton" II has done so all over the
world. Those who choose to shut their
eyes 10 actual occurrences, and TO dis
credit the testimonies Of advanced
physicians and scientists Of worldwide
repute, may rest and rejoice In their
skepticism But rational and broad
minded folks who are willing 70 lnvestI-
gate, viii obtain light and Information
that will perhaps modify. II It does not
entirely change their views on this Inn

THE CANAL.


The Nicaragua canal bill introduced
in the House by Representative Sulzer
Of New York provides for the immedi-
ate construction Of that waterway by
the United States, regardless OF the
pending so-called Hay-Pauncefote
treaty. 1t places the ownership and
the exclusive control Of the canal in
the hands Of our government, and de-
olares the Clayton Bulwer treaty null
and void
This comes pretty near expressing the
general sentiment In this country. The
American people believe the canal
across the isthmus II a necessity for the
special advantage OF the United States
They are willing to build II on that
account, When once built the ditch
will naturally be opened to the traffic
Of all nations engaged In peaceful
trade, but the American people are not
willing to invest millions in that enter
prise with the understanding that 9TH
er powers are 10 dictate terms as to
the opening or closing of the canal,
They want to reserve the right TO say
that no enemies Of the United States
shall be allowed 10 utilize that short
route between the oceans, 10 the dis
advantage OF this country They want
to avoid the suez canal situation which
seems to be bone OF neyer-endIng
contention between Great Britain and
France. And the only way Of prevent
ing a similar difficulty on this side Is
to place the exclusive control Of the
Nicaragua canal in the hands OF I'm
Gle Sam. That would insure the equal
treatment OF all nations In times OF
peace, and prevent much trouble In
times Of war.
The contention is being made that a
neutral canal would be Of more service
to the United States than one which
this country would have to defend dur
ing possible war; But II this is true.
there should be no objection on the
part Of this country to the construction
Of the ditch by the Joint efforts Of
all the maritime powers. Why should
the United states be anxious to build
slnglehanded a waterway which, when
completed, would be Of no more value
to this country than to Great Britain
or France? The very fact that the
Clayton Bulwer treaty has been con-
sldered an obstacle to the enterprise
proves the importance attached to It.
As late as at the peace conference
at The Hague the Monroe doctrine was
by the American delegates declared to
be in force. That doctrine is sure TO
be applied again in questions that may
come up on account Of the contemplate
ed canal. This country will not give
up its claim to exclusive jurisdiction
over exclusively American affairs.
