The Bed and the Candidates.

Judge Harlan and James 3. McCrea
ry once canvassed Kentucky together
as the Republican and Democratic can
didates for governor. They travelled
about the state on a joint debating trip
and in many small mountain places
had to sleep in the same bed They
were warm personal friends and so
did not object to this intimacy. One
night Mr.. Harlan got into bed first.
Senator McCreary was not far behind,
and just as he entered the bed Judge
Harlan raised his bulky form and said
in his stentOrian voice, ''McCreary,
there is one thing certain-the next
governor of Kentucky is in this bed"
AS he spoke the bed Stats broke, and
Judge Harlan rolled to the floor. Sena-
tor McCreary caught and held himself
in bed, and, as Judge Harlan reached
the floor, said: John, you are right.
The next governor of Kentucky is still
in this bed

The Kearns press (Tribune, Tele.

a gang of thieves. The same organs
say that Governor Cutler has degrad-

PARK RECORD DEDUCTIONS.

The American party is launched in
Park City and already quite number

quiet work will be done to secure
votes for the state ticket. There will

no good could be accomplished by so
doing The Record fully agrees with
them in this respect.
The Crisis, the former fiery mouth
piece of the Socialist party of this
state, has Topped" and is now advo-
eating and championing the American
ticket. Editor Dalton has evidently
tired of working for love, and has de-
cided to strive for some of the filthy

paatable, if not taken in too large
doses.

LOSS TO GERMAN EMPIRE.
Retirement from Public Office of
Most Valuable Member of
Government Staff.

Every country mas little known men
who exercise great influence. With
the recen, resignation of Baron Won
Holstein, head of the intelligence de-
partment of its foreign Office, German
official life lost such man, says
Youths Companion. Indeed, 1t might
be said that Europe has lost force
on which it could count. For more
than a generation Baron Won Holstein
has been influential in framing the
German foreign policy. He began I'M
der Bismarck, whose confidential adj
wiser he was. The succeeding foreign
secretaries have been dependent on
his broad and intimate knowledge or
European politics, and have had to
respect his unvarying loyalty 10 what
he regarded the interests of the Fa-
therland, loyalty unaffected by per-
sonal iealousies and ambitions. he
is one of those rare men to whom the
cause for which he worked was every
thing. He had neither wife nor child
to distract him. he never went to
court; rarely met ambassadors. He
worked in his study for the glory OF
the German empire, and worked SO
successfully that the various foreign
secretaries had to keep him in office
until the present. Although 1t IS de-
MED, his resignation is now believed
to be due to imperial dissatisfaction
with the outcome of German Interior
ence in Morocco, an interference for
which he is held responsible. Respon-
sibility is also put upon him fer the
| interventicn of Germany in the affairs
of China, for the emperor's telegram or
congratu'ation to the Beers, for Ger
man activity in Venezuelan matt ers,
and for the attitude of the German
naval officers toward Admiral Dewey's
| administration of affairs in Manila bay
| during the war with Spain. Yet this
man kept himself so inconspicuous at
home thar the editors of bioeraptical
dictionaries thought him unworthy OF
note, and the German handbook "Wer
| Ist's?" devoted to notable conrempo-
raries, does not contain his name.

TRUTHS.

The Utah State Journal for the past
few weeks mas carefully avoided dis
cussion of local politics This is ex-
ceedingly remarkable. as the Journal
heretofore was always to the front in
dealing with political affairs, local,
state and national, and it's silence now
has caused comment and wonder.
Those who are supposed to know ac-
count for it this way: They say that
Willard Snyder some six months ago
bought large controlling interest in
the Journal and plant for which he
paid $15 900 on the understanding that
Mr. Kearns and other big guns in the
American" party would put up
share of the purchase price and that
when the opportune time arrived the
paper would become an American
party organ. Kearns and the others
have. rot made good, leaving the en-
tire burden upon Mr.. Snyder, and the
latter, it is said, is holding of and
won't allow the paper to engage in the
american" battle until the agreement
with him is carried out
