Show Mb, DiNiXXi' should now bary his little hatchet with a firm determination determina-tion not to unsheath It again until after af-ter next November's election, end it would be no bad thing if the Herald would sheath also its controversial pen for the Eame term. We want democratic demo-cratic harmoay, not a public washing of the soiled linen of democrats, however how-ever much it needs the purifying process. pro-cess. The democracy of Utah does not belong to any individual or paper, It is a common heritage. All feel an interest in-terest in its well being, whether they are rich are poor, Mormon or gentile We need Mr. Dininny and the Herald j both, and they must not burn too much powder for fear that some one will take ottensa. Only a few more of these i rough leBsuns and the church will never again appear in the political arena. Thi Utah papers with hut on or two I exceptions are an unit for free coinage. J It is really touching to note thir e.irn- estneBi in the matter. If only thev could accomplish anything what a prompt and com pie U relief would they I . afford. This unity of sentiment prevails pre-vails in every western state, In sll the southern state?, and the poor and working classes of ail the northern aod eaetern states feel the same way about it. This being true, how long ought it to be ere the reform is forced. I; not at the ballot box, at the point of the bayonet We have the power to foice it with ballot .or bajonet and we will ourselves become recreant if we don't soon set about the work. The sell-out to the gold bugs has utea a mo t disastrous dis-astrous experb-nee for us. Senator Vest of Missouri has the right idea about planting the democracy democ-racy of that state on the qu. stion ot iree silver. His idea is to urge upon the chairmen of county democratic committees to call for free eilwr cou ventions. if tney rttuae, then it is to call for a eUte free silver convention, this latter, if called, under ihe cucuin-s cucuin-s Lances, wuuid be rather outside oi arty organization. It Beema rather uuiair -now that Japan has beaten China so thoroughly, that three of the w stern powers s ici.Id n ep in aud give orderB aa to wha. t-erma the victors shall give the vanquished. van-quished. We are very certain that this great yankee nation would not have submitted to it. It is the wish of this nation that Japan reap the full fruit of her wonderful victory. If Speaker Ciiep's idea that free sil ver will be the one issue of the next campaign, is correct, there cannot now be a douto as to the result. Free silver sil-ver and free democracy will both be elected. We pray God that it may be so, and that Crisp is both the son of a prophet and a prophet in his own Droper person. The good ladies will not enter upon the task or governing Utah next November. No-vember. By the next election, if they are very dilligent. they will be in better bet-ter shape to do better eervice than now. They Ioeo nothing by the enforced en-forced wait. We congratulate them upon this unlookei for advantage. Thb convention has come to the conclusion at last that the wemen can not vote on the adoption of the constitution con-stitution or for state officers next fall. The sober second thought has prevailed pre-vailed and even Frank Richards now sees that an enabling act is not a constitution. con-stitution. The Ogden Press's article under the caption, "The Gold Standard and Prosperity" Pros-perity" on the 29th should be read bv every man and woman in Utah. It was excellent. We trust the Press will turn the same writer loose often. That is the sort of thing for the times. Take It all In all and no man in the convention has made as much character charac-ter or has so won the public confidence as has the brave and accomplished Roberte, of Davis. Mr. SFAer Cbisp should make a trip through the mountain states, and then go home and tell the people about the situation prevailing here. Tnis is the laet week of Chidester and also borne of the more ultra among the surrrazists. Utah will feel it as a great relief. |
