defined adjective ''sOcialistic." Mr..
Gather is socialist, if he is permitted
to define his socialism himself. He de-
fines it as a firm belief in the ultimate
evolution of the human race, upward.
He holds an optimistic creed concerning
his fellOwmen. He believes the time
Will come when extremes of poverty
and wealth will be 10 more, and when
every man viii have a fair chance to
make the most Of himself, in intellec-
tual and moral, as well as in material
things. And nobody but a misanthrOpe.
or narrOw-sighted partisan will
quarrel with Mr. Gathers creed. The
man who has faith in the race will find
the race has faith in him. The man
who looks always for the best in his
fellowmen, will find his fellowmen look
ing for the best in him. The world
goes up after better men and better
ideas, always. If this is socialism,
make the most of it. If it is George r.
Gather S socialism, honor him for it.
In other words, Mr.. Gather is dis
tinctively and thoroughly a believer in
the people and a defender of their
rights. This it is which made his nom
ination inevitable from the moment
when he expressed a willingness to
accept it, and this is which has rallied
around him men of all classes, until
factions in the Republican party are
forgotten in enthusiastic loyalty to
their SPLENDID leader, and Democrats
by the hundreds especially in Baltimore
city are flocking to his standard. 1t is
no eXaggeration or rainbow chasing to
say that Baltimore where Mr. Gather
is SO well known and has been so
thoroughly tested, will go Republican
at this election by several thousands.

CALLED ON HIS FRIEND GEORGE
A Story of Lincon'S Visit TO Richmond,
Virginia.

The day after the great fire fol-
lowing the fall of Richmond, Lin
coin, with small bodyguard,
wal ked through the streets of the
charred city. As he approached
the corner occupied by General
Pickett's residence he directed the
guard to wait and to their astonish-
ment ran two steps at a time up
to the door and raped. The ser
wants had fed The baby bride"
had never seen President Lincoln,
but she had read his letters to her
husband and from him had learn
ed to hold in the highest esteem
the great Northern President.
With her baby in her arms she
opened the door, says the World
and looked up at the tall, gaunt
man with the sad face and uncouth
ways.
Without a word of explanation
he asked:
rs George Pickett about?'
To hear her husbands name
bereft of its title by a Yankee at
that moment was almost the limit,
especially as many a rumor had
foated about Richmond concern
ing the fate which awaited the
leaders Of the Confederacy.
With all the proud dignity she
could command the baby bride re-
piled:
General Pickett is not at
home"
The stranger seemed disappoint-
ed, and as he turned to go remark
ed:
Il am Abraham Lincoln, an old
friend of Georges"
mot President Lincoln?" Mrs.
Pickett exclaimed. The tall man
shook his head, repeating:
"No. Just Abraham Lincoln,
George Pickett's old friend"
Following the instant prompt
ings of the heart which still gov
ems her, the baby bride thrust
her baby boy into the arms of the
great Yankee as her best effort to
express her veneration and conf
dence, saying;
II am George Pickett's wife and
this is George Pickett's baby"

others We discussed tonight; but I
have never played part before, never
skulked in the dark. Tonight | simply
had to do it
Then attempt no explanation, he
said. gently, and believe me, | shall
continue to trust you Tonight, what
ever you wish may be- | will abide by
it. Shall 90. or stay? In either case
you have nothing to fear"
She drew a deep breath, these open
words of faith touching her more
strongly than would any selfish fault
fndinc.
Trust begets trust" she replied,
with new frmness, and now gazing
frankly into his face. You can walk
with me a portion of the way if you
wish, but l am going to tell you the
TRUTH have an appointment with a
man"
Il naturally regret to learn this" he
said, with assumed calmness. But
the way is so lonely ! prefer walking
with you until you have some other
protector"
She accepted his proffered arm, feel
ing the constraint in his tone, the
t0smality in his manner, most keenly.
? 1 older woman might have resented
iC, but it only served to sadden and
ombarrass her He began speaking of
the quiet beauty of the night, but she
had no thought of what he was saying.
Lieut.. Brant," she said at last,
you do not ask me who the man is"
Certainly not, Miss Nadia; it is
none of my business"
Il think perhaps it might be; the
knowledge might help you to under
stand. 1t is Bob Hampton"
He stared at her THE gambler?
No wonder, then, your meeting is
clandestinc."
She replied Indignantly, her lips
trembling. He is not a gambler; he
is a miner, over in the Black Range.
He has not touched a card in two
years"
oh, reformed has he? And are
you the instrument that has worked
such miracle?"
Her eyes fell. 81 don't know, but l
hope So" Then she glanced up again,
wondering at his continued silence.
Don't you understand YETI"
only that you are secretly meeting
a man of the worst reputation one
known the length and breadth of this
border as a gambler and fighter"
yes; but-but don't you know who
l amp"
He smiled grimly, wondering what
possible difference that could make.
Certainly; you are Miss Nadia Hern-
don"
81? You have not known? Lieut..
Brant, am Nadia ellis"
He stopped still, again facing her.
MAZDA ellis? Do you mean old ellis
girl? Is it possible you are the same
we rescued on the prairie two years
ago."
She bowed her head. Yes; do you
understand now why trust this Bob
Hamntnn ?"

President Lynn OF the Electrical
Workers union today said that the to-
tai number of men affected by strike
of his craftsmen would not be more
than 60 In both Ogden and Salt Lake,
and not over $50. as stated elsewhere.
Before night 1t will probably be deti-
nitely known whether or not the union
members OF the electrical workers will
go out on strike, In sympathy with the
street car men. Should they do so, por-
tons of the power plants will be tied
UP and power and lights from those
sources will he unavaila BILE.
Though this contingency may arise.
the ma ma cement OF the Utah Light and
Railway company declares that there
Will be sufficient electricity obtained
from plants not unionized to light the

likely that the situation would be taken

THEATERs NOT WORRYING,

The local theater manages do not
profess to be much disturbed over the
situation, They have taken tta precau-
ton 10 make gas connections SO that

the currents are cut of, the gas can inn
mediately be turned on, and the per-

be that spectacular effects are likely 10
suffer under a gas display as cpmpared
with what might be accomplished with
electricity
AS to the size OF the audienas, DUR
ing the strike, theater manages point
to the fact that notwithstanding there
were no cars running, the Sat. Lake
