Show DAILY UTAH STATE JOURNAL, such strength, and such illumination as to honest and impregnable division in Jtah. Inasmuch as this is the political and social end to be achieved, it would be most if the Gentile organization should pass beyond the boundaries of its mission and engage enthe political battlefield of the state as a distinct entity. The inevitable result would be to band together by the old political ties which were severed in 1891 the arge mass of adherents to the Mormon church, and to thereby create conditions from which we have largely, although not entirely grown away. The problem is now more than half solved ; and it would be a misfortune if the work were to be quite undone and the entire question brought forth for new and original solution. This is a presidential year. The adherents of the two great parties in Utah as elsewhere are profoundly interested in the outcome. It is also a senatorial and congressional year in Utah and the strongest political of the state will be immersed in the controversies for those offices. After the sensational showing made at Washington it is probable that this election will be freer from he influence of high ecclesiasts than any since the first statehood election. It would be a misfortune if the great tendency toward per-c- ct enfrachisement should be disturbed by an organization whose main object must of necessity be to secure such enfranchisement. The gentlemen who attended the preliminary meeting at Salt Lake last night are able and sincere ; and they will no doubt take such steps as to insure a proper limitation upon the activities of the new organization.

It is a food sign for the Democratic party that the leading1 men and the lead-newspape- rs, of the representative determined upon the ganization, are Jess individuality of the candidate than upon the assertion of broad and secure Democratic principles where may stand the Democrat of the East and the Democrat of the West, the Democrat of the North aud the Democrat of the South all in one united party. It is a sign of good sense ; more than that, it is a sign of exalted patriotism. This counTotry has need that all Democrats shall Get the from gether ; a recession by any Democrat principles and policies which the Democratic Democparty should assert for the victory of racy and the preservation of the country is a crime against the uation. Not within the generation of men now living has there been such good reason for Democratic ascendancy. All the evils of Republican rule against which Bryan led the forces in 1900, are still existent and to them have been added innumerable other and greater dangers. In addition to the bad financial policy, the extravagant methods, the wholesale rascality, the protection of trusts, the changing of our form of government by the more than monarchical exercise of power in the control of the Philippines and the seizure of Panama all characteristics of present administration by the Republican party the nation is threatened by the candidacy of one of the most dangerous, even if one of the most honest, men that have appeared in public life in recent years. Theodore Roosevelt is a law unto himself. It has long been a maxim practiced by the family from which he comes that a Roosevelt can do no wrong. lie is the quintessence of persond al vanity, courage, and reckless impulse. With the wide latitude afforded by present Republican policy utterly at variance with all the old ideals of the party and the people to what extremes may he not carry the nation if he shall be elected to the presidency ? The result of four years of administration by an unrestrained Roosevelt may be woe permanent, unutterable and irremediable to the nation. Confronted by such exigency, Democrats are bound to Get Together. The nation needs redemption now as much as it needed preservation in 1861. The old Republican party of that day, under whose administration the union was maintained, has now become the menacing agency against the continuance of national life and the Democracy has come to the greatest opportunity of its career. Get Together Democrats ; and let the country once more have a government under which the people may enjoy equal rights. or- SPECIAL es 1 A DESERVED DIVORCE. hare-braine- Co-manc- hes henry STETSON -- In June that we have near- Sweet, Wholesome Story ly everything in hats.

They have been married nearly 40 years. If Mrs. Codys brutalities toward her lusband have continued during any large part of their conjugal existence, what an almost eternal torture must have been his portion ! Buffalo Bill was wont to slaughter as a vocation and to chase Sioux as an avocation. Again and again in his career he ought them to his last cartridge. He was surrounded and subjected to a starvation which compelled him to eat his own moccasins. He was captured and condemned to the torture. Yet never once in his long career as a scout and an Indian slayer did he squeal for mercy. But at last he has found his conqueror, and in his old age he applies to the courts of civilization that he may be protected from larbarities beyond his strength to endure. The little woman to whom he was married in 1866, who followed him through the early dangers and privations of his career, and who has lived at North Platte while he has been hobnobbing with royalty abroad, has been conducting a systematic course of torture against him which makes all the atrocious f cruelties of the Sioux and Comanches appear THE GENTILE ORGANIZATION. like the play of a kindergarten.
