lively with interest at per cent.

afternoon the Stanford contingent let
it be known far and wide that they

Unfortunately for Stanford the

Hynes, though unprepared for Vaude-

songs and spin a yarn. This he did to

matized the south as ignorant on po-
litical questions.
Shaw's remarks regarding the south
were given an unexpected dramatic
twist when southern born newspaper
man who was reporting the address so
far forgot himself that he shouted: 1t
is not so"
1t is true responded the former
secretary as he reiterated his state
ments. The south is the best place
in the world in which TO make a
speech" he said, because the people
are so ignorant of political questions.
1t is not their fault; the burden of the
great struggle is still upon them. But
for all that, nowhere is there greater
ignorance nor greater eagerness to
know"
STANDPAT CAMPAIGN
Championing "standpat' methods of
legislation, particularly in regard to
the tariff law, Shaw said
The people can't make the tariff
1t would be as wise to expect the
stock holders to run a railroad
Earlier in his speech he took Occa-
sion to make this statement regarding
the insurgents" in the republican
party:
L have no more respect for those
people who style themselves repub-
licans and are not than for those demo-
Gratis who live in Florida and pretend
to be democrats and are not.
When l was nominated for gov
ernOr in Iowa in 1897, my canvass cost
me exactly $3.50. and great demo-
cratic paper said that the machine
was broken. No man in my state
today could be elected without ma
chine behind him unless he spent
$4,000 600

when the tariff was being framed
Minnesota sent men 10 Washington to

In Minnesota every public man who
voted for tariff on anything except

I would say of the insurgents what

You? What do YOU know of govern
ment? Why, we can hardly run the
government ourselves.

to the great Eisteddfod to be held at
Carmarthen. Wales, in 1911, is fast
gaining ground with the public, here

Advices from the Old Country are to
the effect that the newspapers Of Eng

matter. upon the initiative set by The
Druid of Scranton. Pennsylvania, The
Salt Lake Daily Tribune. and other
newspapers throughout the United
States 1T appears that The Tribune
has been quoted upon the matter by
some of the London (England) dailies,
and they all favor the enterprise Of
sending the choir over to this greatest
world s competition of singers. We
have no doubt that the matter can be
successfully accomplished under care
full and watcbful management and by
intelligent treatment of the preliml-
naries necessary TO the trip. 1t would
be splendid experience for the mem
bers of our tabernacle choir from many
points of view. IL would give them
broader ideas; they would come into
contact with the very soul of the
Eisteddfod; they would see the great
ocean and many of them would feel
its heaving under their feet for the
FIRST time III their lives; they would
visit the scenes where in the ages past

they would even see standing today

LOVE FEAST AND MEMORIAL,

A most important assomblagc is that
which will be found tomorrow evening
in the Auditorium. on Richards street.
IL will be combination love-feast of

vance the memorial in honor of General
p. T. Connor, whose splendid loyalty
and distinguished service did so much
for the cause of liberty in Utah. de

the Indians feeling of security IN

whites who were not Of the ruling faith
here To the first ho administered
a dose OF independent and fearless ac-
tion which they never forgot, and never
failed to resent. To the second, he ad-
dressed arguments that made them per-
manently good. His career In Utah
was one of constant, unsel6sh, euer
getic activity for his country against
all foes; and IL was so effective as to
change the rampant disloyalty for re-
pressed hatred and sullen resentment:
10 the traitorous element, his course
but added another to their many
causes of sntipathy to the American
people and their Government. II was q
salutary lesson that he taught, one that
had a mighty effect in the noble
struggle for loyalty to country and
honor to its flag.
It is natural that in a love-feast of
Americans the movement for a per
manept memorial TO General Connor
should find distinguished and welcome
place. The American party has in
charge the grand principles of love
of country and the upholding of its
flag and its authority, which he was
so Jealous in impsnting and fostering
in Utah. His Memorial and an
American love-feast belong, therefore,
naturally together. And we urge that
every American who loves his Cor her)
country make it the especial business of
the evening TO attend that love-feast
and Connor memorial banquet.
