THE DUTY OF SILENT COMMENT.

There has been much discussion Of
EN- Congressman to assume when their
section is assailed on the floor OF Con-
gress. The Democratic Senator's, with
two. exceptions, retired in a body when
Senator rillman made his singing reply
and defended the attitude of South Car
olinians in suppressing the negro vote.
Some have appIauded and some have re-
buked that course. Mr.. Tillmans speech,
Earring a few Incorporate expressions,
was strong and convincing defense of
Southern methods.
Is it not better to treat the ISLANDERS
of the South with silent contempt? The
Atlanta Constitution thinks so, for in a
singularly clear and sensible editorial in
yesterdays paper, it said:
Senators from the South in Congress
can do a most valuable service TO this
section by resOlutely ignoring such of
their colleagues as are moved to r.
new in these days the old time bloody
shirt ISLANDERS against our people. 1t
ought to be patent to the freshest of
our representatives in that body that
the assaults are made for a malicious
and partisan purpose and that at the
bottom of them are personal campaign
interests.
''Such Republican Senator's as Cullom,
Aldrich, Proctor and Allison do not i'll
dulge ia these cheap baitings of the
Southerners and do not need to. 1t is
men like Senator Burton, who is the
beneficiary of the dominant Grand
Army of the Republic vote in Kansas,
who feels that he must go home with
some Southern blood on his talons and
some Southern hair in his beak or he
will not be regarded as the war eagle of
the pension roll palladins. Or it is a
man like Senator Jonathan Powieshiek
Dolliver of Iowa, who also sits in the
Senate by the grace OF a large constit-
uency that is still hot-fOoted to punish
traitors and make treason odious.' Or,
else, it is some gentleman who thinks it
possible to compound the sins of jake
smithery in the Philippines by raising a
sanctimonious yawp about ku-kluX Of
lenses committed in some sections of the
South thirty years ago.
Now the South does not need any
defense from all that species of cam
paign skull-duggery. What is writ is
writ and let the record speak for itself
without further commentary and clamor-
Gus declarations of defense. The people
of the South are faced to the future and
they are anxious only to- achieve those
victories which will restore the govern
ment to Democratic principles and con-
troll Those are the conditions only that
promise to us equitable rights and honest
recognition in national affairs.
I'VE certainly cannot help ourselves
to those conditions by side-stepping every
time we are invited to a threshing over
of old and rotten straw, nor by flying the
column every time some political bush
whacker drags a bloody skirt across the
trail. Our best and safest policy is to let
the Burtons and Delivers chew the old
rags of the reconstruction era until they
become nuisances to their own party and
the people at large. Silence on the part
of Southern representatives is the medi-
cine that will work quickest on their
species of rabies and that will soonest
spread a contagion of contempt upon their
phoulish performances.'

A NEW BRICK DEPOT
Manager Herbert Assured Mayor
SampIIner This Morning That
a Handsome Brick Depot
Structure is to be Built.

There will be people who will still
doubt that a new depot is TO be built
here, notwithstanding the fact that they
can be told authoritatively today that
Manager Herbert has laid that a new
brick depot was to be built in this city
very shortly.
This morning an elegant special train
arri, ed 10 tho city at 9:20 o'clock. On
the train were the following officials:
Russell Harding, first vice president and
general manager; j. M. Herbert, mana
F. r. Rockwell, superintendent OF the
third and fourth divisions into this city,
met them here, also r. W. Wentworth
who has been appointed superintendent
OF the Rio Grande junction road.
The stay OF the distinguished railway
officials in the city WAS very brief An
fact, but ten minutes were spent here
and then the train pulled out for Salt
Lake City with all the officials on board
The stay, however, was not 30 brief
that it prevented Mayor j. M. Sampli
ner and Orson Adams jr. from having q
talk with Manager Herbert. Mayor
Sampliner had matter regarding the
sewerage at the depot to preset Mt to Man
ager Herbert and in the conversation the
matter Of the new depot was necessarily
sured Mayor Sampliner that the new de-
pot would be built very shortly and that
it would be built of brick
Manager Herbert said he would stop
on his way back from Salt Lake City
and give the matter more consideration
There is hardly question that the
new depot will be built and that very
soon The promise of Mr.. Herbert is
out to that effect and also the partial
promise OF George Gould, who, it will be
| remembered, stated, while on his visit to
this city, that we needed a new depot
| and that he hoped we would have one
when he returned to this state on a feb
ing trip to the Gunnison some time in

by easy monthly payments The
contract is definite and certain BY
its terms it cannot run BEYOND the

loan plan as usually presented by
associations. 1t differs from such
a plan, in that
No fines are charged the borrower.
Tne maximum number of payments re-.

The eum required to pay off and cancel a
lonn, or any part of it, is stipulated in the
tie for each period.
d Certainty ans monthly payment plan
is an advantage to the borrower. ~ The
debt can be paid off before maturity with
out penalty. (2) The borrower by easy pay
ments gets out of debt. Straight loans for
a term of years are too often renewed.
Three terms or payment are offered. 1t
takes small monthly payment longer to
cancel a debt than it does larger one.
