GOODWIN CONSISTENCY.

On Wednesday an article on the
editorial page of the Telegram, writ
ten by Judge Goodwin, says that the
appointment by President Roosevelt
of Mr.. Spry as United States marsha
for Utah was the carrying out of az
agreement made between the Nor
mon leaders, prominent Republicans
here and some one who was acting II
the interest of President Roosevelt
and that the agreement involved the
election of Senator Sutherland, the re
appointment of Ex-Governor Thomas
as postmaster, the sacrifice of United
States Marshal Haywood for a Nor
mon and the giving of the electoral
vote of the state by the Mormons to
President Roosevelt This, the edi-
torial in question says, accounts for
Senator Sutherland not using his in
fluence to keep Marshal Haywood in
Office docs not lessen the shame and
the wrong of the miserable business
in the least, but accounts for it all"
If Judge Goodwin's statement that
such an agreement was made he
must have been party to that agree
ment or at the very least an accessory
after the fact, for Goodwin's Weekly
was, III Tic SlCCtioH VI lOVf, SlIODS-
ly as it could be in favor of George
Sutherland for the United States SEN
atorship. If such a shameful bargain
was made why did Mr.. Goodwin in
this paper help to carry out that
which he now calls shameful bar
gain? He must have approved of the
agreement then. Why does he now
characterize it as a shame and q
wrong. Is his change of front for
money or for what? The Telegram
editorial is a direct insult to Presi-
dent Roosevelt and is false from be-
ginning to end. Why should Senator
Sutherland want to keep Mr.. Hey.
wood in office? A renegade Republi.
can who did all he could to defeat the
party that honored and fed him? Sen
ator Sutherland has too much char.
acter and stamina to be either bull.
dozed or cajoled by either the Tele
gram or the Tribune or the Kearns
gang, of which Judge Goodwin is now
a member, or all combined.

Pigeons Hard Journey.

Wings battered and tail feathers
partly gone, too plainly telling the
story of captivity from which it had
escaped, pigeon which was one of
the contestants in the 400-mile race
from Memphis to Louisville reached
its loft in the yard of the home of
Charles Wirth last Friday, nearly two
weeks late.
The bird flew into its loft as IL glad
to get back home, but it showed that
it had not had pleasant journey
from Memphis.
1t is supposed that the pigeon was
trapped by some one when 1t was
blown out of its course by the storm
the birds are known to have encoun-
tered. 1t is easily supposed that the
bird, after being held in captivity
for several days, was released, the
capturers thinking the bird would
stay.-Louisville Courier-Journal.

Porto Rico-the Gem of the Antilles,
d land Of everlasting Spring-and
land where we Americans have done
much injustice, principally through our
ignorance of what the people really
want and need-for Uncle Sam is just

There are few of our people who
know that Porto Rico comprises three
more important islands-Porto Rico
proper; Vieques an island with at least
5000 inhabitants, approximately 21
miles long and six miles wide, lying
due east of Porto Rico; and Culebra,
northeast of Vieques, a small and
mountainous island, but with n mag
nificent harbor, protected from all
stress of weather, which could accom-

Porto Rico resembles Florida in its
climate, with the notable exception that

the warmest is in June and July, when
the average is ~. The zero days of
Washington and the 105 degrees in the

December, but is not so terrible as

necessarily. but there are frequent

turned out by that establishment, and
it is meeting with much comment from

are William II. Robbins, Charles H.
Richardson and Col. John 2. Nichol-
son. The Inspector-General says that
they have performed their duties most
conScientiously and accomplished Il
great deal of good in a few years. The
Government now owns 1880 acres of
land, upon which the main fighting took
place. and has Sc acres under condem-
nation proceedings The Commission
has decided to secure still another 100
acres in order to preserve the integ-
rity Of the battlefield. This tract was
mainly occupied by the Confederates
with infantry and artillery.

Monument to Capt. Wirz.

Mcpherson Post, of Charlottesville,
Ind, has unanimously adopted resolu-
tions regretting the over-indulgence
shown toward treason; that Gen. Fred
ID. Grants proposition to make a holi-
day of the Lee birthday anniversary
is to be condemned, and that the propo-
stion to erect monument to Capt.
WirZ is an insult to every American
soldier and a taunt TO every survivor
of Andersonville.
T. c. George, 7th Kan. Cav. Rocker
vile, S. D., was in Andersonville, and
he cannot understand who can be so
deprayed as to falsify the testimony
of living witnesses to propose erecting
a monument to Capt. Wirz. He was a
fitting companion of the hounds that
he unleashed every morning to hunt
escaping prisoners.
Rev. Joseph o. Elwell, Alton, Iowa,
says no, a thousand times no, there
should be no monument to the brutal
tyrant Wirz to pollute the sacred dust
of our martyred heroes of Anderson
vile.
