AN EXPLODED FAKE.

Some DAYS ago the church organ at
tempted 10 make an uproar about al
legged ill-treatment of the prisoners on
the chain gang by the guards, citing
especially the case OF one Van Allen
II was charged that this man had been
brutally beaten and maltreated, and
that many witnesses were ready to sub
stantiate the charge. The police, how
ever, denied any ill-treatment of any
body. md especially of Van Allen; and
the witnesses cited by the News repudi-
ated altogether its statement of their
position and its quotation of their
language. And now comes Van Allen
himself, the prisoner who it was al.
legged had been SO badly manled and
abused. He says that he has not been
ill.treated at all. The guard who
caught him did no more to him than
was TO be expected. He made a break
for liberty. the guard overhauled him
and they had something of tussle
in which the guard had the better of
him, and that was all there was about
it. Van Allen fought for his liberty
and the guard simply did his duty in
overcoming him. And now Van Allen
calls quits and says that he got nothing
more than he deserved
So dissipates into thin air another
of the malicious fakes and malevolent
fabrications Of the church organ, made
for church political purposes. 1t was
from first 20 last fake, and doubt
less was known by the News to be
such. And yet that organ tried TO
persuade the public that its falsehood
was the truth, Now, however, Van
Allen, the man in whose behalf it pre-.
tended TO take up the cudgels: cuts the

TO PROTECT THE HOME.

We have Just received the pamphlet
giving the proceedings at the twentieth
annual meeting of the National Chris.
tian League for the Promotion of Purity
for the current year. The proceedings
are noteworthy especially in connection
with the resolutions upon marriage, di-
vorce, and polygamy. The resolutions
have been printed heretofore, but some
time ago; and so it will do no harm to
print them again at this time. The fol-
lowing is the resolution respecting mar
riage and divorce It was incorporated
In the address of the president of the
National Council OF Women, Mrs. Eliza
beth B. Grannis.

THE VETERANS ARE GOING!

There were dropped from the pension
roll during the fiscal year ending June
30th last, 81, ,5sl names, the most OF
these because of deaths. The Secretary
of the Interior, who reports these hg-
urcs, SAYS the names were dropped Ior
''death and other reasons Very few.
however, were dropped except for death.
There were additions to the roll during
the wear, chiefly on account of the law
allowing pensions on the veterans at
tanning the age of sixtytwo years or
more, 46.O8s names, leaving the total
on the pension roll at the close of the
year, 9d6, ,lo4, net decrease for the
year Of 5493,
Utah has had its full proportion OF
these deaths among the veterans, We
are reminded of this because of the oc-
currcncc of two deaths within the week
in this city, and there have been many
deaths OF veterans in Utah during the
year.
When we come TO think of it, 1t is
indeed surprising that there should be
so many of the veterans of the great
war still alive. OF course, very large
number of the names on the roll are
of widows and other dependents. The
Civil War closed more than forty-tour
wears apo and few indeed of the vet
Grams can be under the age of sixty
years. The deaths in any given time
of persons sixty years old and upwards
must necessarily be very large IN pro
portion TO the deaths of the community
as a whole. This rate of mortality
among the veterans must necessarily
increase year by year until but few are
left, and almost III a breath, all Will be
gone, Of course, those who arc pen
stoned by reason of the Spanish Wa
may reasonably hope to live for many
years Yet, but they are comparatively
few.
Yet although we are obliged to con
slider that the veterans Of the Grent
War must now 90 very fast, we grievC
TO lose them Just the same, because
they represent a type of patriots that
will always be illustrious in the annals
of the United States. Noble heroes
they were, and noble heroes they vii

the increasing death rate that prevail!

SCHLEY STANDS BY COOK.

II is interesting to note that Admiral
! Schley, himself n good deal of an cX-
pert in Arctic exploration, continues his
belief in Cook s honesty and in the
possibility of his having been AT the
pole after all, notwithstanding the fact
| that he is unable to prove it. Clearly
that is the fair and manly view to take
| of Dr. Cook s case, AS we have said
heretofore, men not skilled in astronomy
or mathematics, not able To name the
stars and mathcmatically locate their
positions. not able to calculate the lati-
tude and longitude, are often the first
explorers of any given region. 1t IS
TO be remembered, further, that Drs
| Cook. when he went TO the Arctic, went
there avowedly with the idea OF making
dash for the pole only If conditions
were favorable He reported that they
were favorable, that he made the dash,
and that he had arrived at the pole.
One of the first questions asked DR..
| Cook when he landed in Copenhagen
was whether he considered himself cX-
pert enough in the taking OF obscrva-
tions and recording them TO prove ms
case Dr. Cook answered that he did
consider himself so capable. Now 1T Is
Just as easy TO assume that he was
wrong in claiming this expertness ms
that he was dishonest IN claiming TO
have reached the pole; and evidently
| this is the basis from which Admlra!
Schley makes his reasoning.
1t is easy TO jump upon man when
he is down; ii is easy TO assail man
who is baffled in his attempt to prove
n case such as DR.. Cook undertook to
prove II is astonishing. however, to
see that Fridthiof Nanseu has Joined
in the wolfish attack upon Cook. We
had supposed that Nansen was man
of humane and considerate mind, who
would not wish to put himself in such
position as this. IT is quite true
that the Peary advocates have been
given immense encouragement by the
finding of the University of Copcn-
hagen. But it is also true that that
finding was not conclusive, and did
not purport to be. The Cook case Is,
in fact, still open, and if DIR. Cook,
with the completer records which he
saws he was obliged TO leave at Etah,
will be able to prove his case after
all, certainly those who have looked
into his case have left that course en-
tireiy open to him,
We are glad that Admiral Schley
takes this fair and manly course that
he does with respect TO this matter.
He is not discouraged as TO Cook. His
position, further. that it would be to
the credit of Commander Peary to sub
nit his records, also, to the University
of Copenhagen. is one that fair minded
men everywhere will endorse. 1t is
quite possible that the university might
find the same verdict as to Peary that
il found as 10 Cook. We do not mt
mate any doubt by this that Peary
arrived at the pole; we fully believe
that he did. But it is permissible TO
suggest that possibly his proofs might
not be entirely satisfactory to the Uni
versity of Copenhagen. Just as DR..
Cooks were found deficient, We trust
that Commander Peary may acquiesce
in the suggestion Of Admiral Schley.
