Caine, Governor Thomas euterod into conversation with him, and stated that owing to tbe fact that he was in Wash-ington on a special mission, he did not think it proper for him to go before the committee. During the governor's ab-sence in New York, Mr. Caine inti-mated that the governor was opposed to the disfranchisement bill. Upon his return, Governor Thomas, upon hear-ing of this, immediately went to Air. Caine and charged him with having de-liberately lied. Of course, after this episode, Governor Thomas very prop-erly concluded that ho was free to ex-press any opinion he saw lit, to whom-soever he pleased, regarding the dis-franchisement bill, and he acted accord-ingly. This is about the only thing that the Herald can say about Governor Thomas, and what it does say in re-spect to this matter is false. We notice that it can find nothing to criticise in his official acts. l.VINO ABOUT THG GOVERNOR. The Mormon organs persist in attack-ing Governor Thomas without any provocation. They seem to act upon the theory that a lie well stuck to is as good as the truth. Almost daily they ring the changes on the statement that Governor Thomas while in Wash-ington told Delegate Caine that he was opposed to the disfranchisement bill. That statement is wholly false. The facts are these: Governor Thomas had received an invitation to go before the committee having the bill under .con-sideration, but as he had gone to Wash-ington on other business, be con-cluded that he would have nothing to do with it at that tunc.

The funeral of VV illiam Warren, who was killed at the Ontario mine yester-day, took place at 8 o'clock p.m., from Od"d Fellow's hall. The ceremonies were very impressive and the remains were followed to their last resting place by a large concourse of friends. M. S. Aschcim has returned to Park City.

This campaign is no exception to the rule, but the bait which is used to lure him is so very flimsy and transparent that we have no fear that sensible workingmeu will vote any ticket but tbe Liberal on next Mouday. We do not believe that there is a man in this city, who carries his dinner pail in the morning to a day's productive work, that will so far forget himself as to vote a Mormon ticket simply because it hasthenameof work-ingma- n at its flagstaff. How long is it since the People's party took up this bright tin can as its emblem and discarded the beehive which did such valiant service for years, and near which a Gentile workman dare not go for fear of the fatal Mormon sting? How long is it silica this in-stitution whose past record ever since it was born on American soil, has been one of absolute tyranny and domination of labor, experienced its wonderful change of heart? Look at every one of the great concerns throughout this territory which are controlled practically by u few men, standing high in saintly counsels, and which have fro.en out all competitors, and which pay their labor the lowest possible sum it will consent to live on, and then ask yourselves, workingmen, if the whole platform and position of friendliness towards you is not one of pretense and fraud? Don't you remember the street car serv ice in this city of a year or two ago, the Mormon drivers of which only re-ceived fifty dollars a mouth compensa-tion for their services, and were com-pelled to pay into the tithing house one-tcnl- h of that? This alleged workingmen's ticket is such a shallow fraud that it ought not to bo necessary to call a workingman's at-tention to it at all, and we don't believe the men who labor in this city will bo so blinded to their true interests as to be moved from duties they owe to themsolves, their flag and their God, by men who point them to fantasmas, and call them grievances, which have no exis-tence, in fact. Do not, you men who reap and spin and earn your bread in the heat of the day, be led away by false prophets. Do not take to your bosoms the greatest enemy of labor there is on American soil today. If you do, theseraet tat ill stiug you to the death. BEAUTIFUL SOPHISTRIES. Oh labor! what crimes aro committed in thy name! There is no class of people on earth whose confidences are so shamefully abused as the men who labor and earn the daily bread for themsolves and lit-tle ones by the toil of their hands. As the election approaches in the spring and fill the laboring man is tugged at by both parties, and cajoled by argu-ment until his head is a confused mass of ideas which havo neither shape nor size. But the greatest snare that he has to face is the sophistries of campaign ora-tors snd the hypocritical appeal of some libels on journalism, misnamed news- - Chinese doctors are making things hum in Milwaukee just now. Given a trinity of a fool, his disease, and his money it Is quite an easy matter to separalo one from the other two. Usually the one is not the disease, especially when Chinese doctors are about. The exclusion of Count Tolstoi's book, "Kroutzer Sonata," from the United States mails will prove a big ad-vertisement for it. Everybody will now want to read it, and although it cannot be sent through the mail, it will soon be found on every newstand and in every bookstore. Incle Sam's Vast Domain, St. Paul Globe. That was an inspiring conception for the Briton that his drum beat was heard around the globe, but it is pretty near a fact that the sun never goes out of sight of United States land. San Fran-cisco is about midway between the out-ermost islands of Alaska and the eastern shores of Maine. The sun rises at the latter by the time it quite leaves Alaska. THE DEADLY CURRENT. The other day a number of telephone linemen were stretching a wire along ono of the thoroughfares of this city when a farmer driving down the street, heedless of the warning of the line-men, ran his poor horse into the wire, pulled it over against tho trolly wire of tho electric railroad, and down went the pony as dead as a door nail. That horse was like the little squad of "laboring men " who a few days ago made up a ticket and decided to pull for themselves. Had they been left alone they would have continued to feed in the green pastures of peaceful citizenship. But the "labor party," like tho horse, allowed itself to ho hitched to an old wagon and submitted to being driven by a pprty (more expert with the whip than common sense tactics) that would not listen to the warning of men who understood the power of the current of advanced government. Tho "labor" party is being driven into the deadly wire by its People's party driver, and on Monday it will receive a shock that will bring it to the ground as dead as that poor horse. Tho People's party, like tho foolish driver, will rush for-ward to disentangle its dead friend; and when, heedless of the further warnings of the worthy linemen, it, picks up the wire in tho hope of freeing entangled "labor," the death-dealin- current will pass through its withered frame, extin-guishing the little spark of life that still remains, leaving to its few sympathiz-ers only the dusty ashes of a cremated corpse. Funeral Monday eveniug after elec-tion returns arc counted. No flowers. A St. Louis boy, wearied at the mo-notony of having his mother beaten daily by his drunken fathor, injected a little life as well as a little death into the proceedings yesterday by killing the man. They do some things belter in St. Louis than in other sections of the country. ARRIYAL8 AHJ CLOSE OP MAILS. Schedule of arrival and closing of malls at the Bait Lake city Postofflce, May 1, 18U0.

When the Zion's Savings bank build-ing was in course of construction last year, the union men employed on tho job had some misunderstanding with the non-unio- n men, with whom they would not work, and they demanded their discharge. Bishop Watson re-fused to comply with their demand, and the union men abandoned their job. The Deseret News Bustainod Bishop Watson in his position, and asserted that there was no Such tyranny as that exercised by Ihe labor unions. And now that same paper poses as the friend and advocate of labor. The labor unions, however, have not forgotten tho stand which it took a year ago. Tho News is tho church organ and its utterances are regardod as official. Union men can draw their own infer-ence. JUST MCFOltK THE BATTLK. An army which enters upon a battle-field with conildeuce in its ability to win, has the light well in hand. Confi-dence is a potent factor in any contest, martial or political, and the coward has no place there. But it is not cowardice to reason and prepare ahead of time 'n anticipation of the strength of tho enemy. This is prudence, caution. It is well, therefore, before buckling on the armor for the encounter of Monday, to scrutinize keenly and closely the sit-uation, and if there be weakness at any point that point must bo strengthened. The Liberals are firm in their belief that thev will carry this election. They will, too, if tho electors perform their duties as citizens. A careful canvass of the county shows a Liberal majority, but not nearly tho majority which some of the most sanguine predict. There will not be 120(1 or 1400 more Liberal ballots than ballots of the People's party in the boxes. The Liberals have a majority of 400 perhaps, which would bo increased to nearly 1000 if all the Liberal voters were in the city. But a large number aro away for the summer vacation or aro for other reasons called out of town and a reduction of at least 500 is tho result. Unless the Liberal voters resolve each man for himself to go to tho polls on Monday at whatever iucouveuienco they may anticipate defeat, for tho op-position will commit no. such political crime. It is estimated that at least 05 per cent of the People's vote will be polled. It is one of the things which they are accustomed to do, and Liberals may well go and do likewise. Many Liberals have lost their right to vote because of uegleet of duty on failing to register. There are no People's party votes lying around looso and unregis-tered. This is not a time when any Liberal may feel safe if he remain at home and lose his vote from sheer lazi-ness. At the school election but 55 per cent of the Liberal vote was cast. The Mor-mons, without any particular effort, placed 08 per cent of their vote in the boxes. It is a positive necessity that tho Liberals do better, for, although the city is clearly Liberal the outside county is not. This talk of a big majority in the county is worse than foolish. It is criminal, for it induces neglect, and neglect means defeat. The Mormon majority in the county ranges from 700 to 1000. It is therefore of highest im-portance that the city be carried by a majority which will obliterate the Mor-mon county vole. This can bo done and the county can be carried as a whole by 400 majority if the Liberals do their duty. It is also important that the Liberal vote bo cast only beforo 10 o'clock in fact. This will give an opportunity to disclose the identity of tho stragglers, so that they may be looked up. It is urgent, also, that so many as possible go to the polls to work. Hard work must be doue and if tho Liberals work hard the victory is theirs. If they prove indifferent they will be defeated. That is all there is about it. THE LIBERAL TICKET. I'or county clerk C. K.

For tho convenience of regular subscribers keys will be furnished them for use at the public telephones. The system promises to become popular on this side of the herring pona as well. DRAWING TO A CLOSE. There is only one more day beforo election. All the questions of tho cam-paign have been very thoroughly d through the newspapers and at publio meetings, and it is pretty safe to say that nearly every voter has. made up his mind as to what ticket ho will support. There is in reality only two cickets in the field. One is tho Liberal and the other is a fusion ticket, made up of Toople's party men and two independent workingmeu. The People's party and the independent workingmen are the same thing. If you vote for one you will be voting for the other. The independent working-men'- s movement was inspired by the People's party who prepared the ticket for their tools and then endorsed it. It was originated for the purpose of de-ceiving tho workingmen generally, but in this respect it has proved a failure. The independent workingmeu would have worked and voted with the People's party without any ticket hav-ing been specially prepared for thorn, and hence their little sideshow will not materially affect the result. The Lib-eral workingmen have not beeu de-ceived by this transparent device. They have, remained loyal to their principles, and on Monday next will cast a solid vote for the Liberal ticket, which is sure to be victorious. THE PRINCIPAL CONTENTS OF TO-DAY'S TIMKS.

Logan Journal: There is more home building going on now than ever before, and there are many neat cottages among the new structures. It is surpris-ing how fast Logan is growing. Ogden, according to the Commercial, is the best town "between Denver and tho coast." From the number of times the place has been "bested" the asser-tion is not only timely but well taken. Provo Enquirer: The southern coun-try is somewhat elated over the renewal of mining interests in Pioche and southern Utah. It affords tho peoplo a market for their products and furnishes the young men with labor. PERSONAL PARAGRAPHS. The Marquis de Leuville bears a strik-ing resemblauco to Colonel Elliot E. Shepard. Miss Bissell, who is ono of the most popular ot San Francisco heiresses, is a merry girl with red gold hair, a pink and white skin, and a pair of magnifi-cent shoulders. The long nervous strain is at last tell-ing plainly on Keminler, the murderer, and it would not surprise his friends if he died before the law fixed a day for his execution by electricity. Tho important information is sent out that President Harrison weighs 103 pounds. In the matter of physical bulk it will have to be admitted that Mr. Harrison is not a small man. Gladstone makes it a rule never to travel on Sunday, and Curtiu makes it a rule never to travel on any other day if it can be avoided. And they have both lived to a ripe old age. The mountain home of Stephen B. Elkins in West Virginia is built on a peak from which a view of thirty miles may be had. The house is more like a baronial castle than a residence. The surrounding mountains are full of trout streams and game forests. General Gordon, who is once again prominent in the public eye, is a man of fine physique, who looks "every inch a soldier." He has a strong face, to which a scar just below the left eye a souvenir of Antietam adds impressive-ness- . He is said to be the most popular of the surviving confederate generals. Postmaster Eberle, of Girardville, Pa., kindly offers a prize of $75 in gold to the woman who can tell the biggest lie and attend to other people's business better than her own, none but Girard-ville women to compete. It is under-stood that the ladies of Girardville have been taking some interest in the man-agement of the postofflce at that piace. Before his departure for Africa Mr. Stanley accepted from Sir John Pender a copy of Burns in miniature form. He promised to make it his constant com-panion. Last spring SirJohu Pender was in Egypt at the time of Stauley's arrival, and he relates that Stanley, soon after they met, reminded him of the copy-o- f Burns, and said it had been a great source of comfort to him;, he had read it many times over and he believed there was no better thumbed book in existence than that little volume. It will be remembered that during his tour in America with the Patti com-pany last winter Sig. Tamagno, al-though earning $1000 a week, practiced economy to the extent of penurious-ness- . In New York he lived in a cheap room and cooked his own meals, even buying his beer by the pitcher to reduce expenses. It was said that he carried a small oil stove in the sleeping car, on which he boiled eggs and made his coffee, to the disgust of other passen-gers. He has lately put all his savings into a handsome residence and will re- tire from the stage. He may be said to have paid a high price for luxurious ease. Cruel. New York Sim. Elderly suitor I have spoken toy" mother, Helen, and Helen Oh, I'm so glad. Did she cept you? OH! CONSISTENCY! We have the curious paradox of the Herald hoisting to the flag staff of its editorial columns the People's ticket, while all of the matter in the space be-low is a very tiresome effort on its part to prove it is tbe friend of the poor, downtrodden and oppressed laboring man. This is not strange. Nothing that the Herald does or says excites auy surprise, beoause it has never been of wearing any jewelry with its red robe of "inconsistency." When a paper's utterances aro so con-tradicted by all the records of the past, they are without force, for they bear tho stamp of insincerity on their face. It is hard to convince others by arguments that we do not believe in ourselves, and the Herald is in just that position. But why does the Herald hoist the flag of the People and then talk Work-ingmen? It knows ouly too well there are but two parties in this election the Liberals and the People's and that it is the same fight today that has been waged for tho last forty-thre- e years in Utah. MONTANA NOTES. The Michigan State Press association is lingering in Butte. The Glasgow Herald has awakened from its doze of several weeks. Tommy Strong, while traveling from Stillwater to Billings, was thrown from his horse and. striking on his head, was rendered unconscious, in which state he remained for several days. Monday morning a teamster named Nelson, employed by Woods, Larson & Co., while working near the divide on the Cour d'Alene extension of the Northern Pacific, fell underneath a heavily loaded wagon and one of the wheels passed over his left arm, terribly crushing it. Final settlement in the Otto divorce case was made at Missoula Tuesday, Mrs. Otto receiving $7500 cash. The court's costs and sheriff's fees amounted to over $700. Woody, Marshall & Crutchtield received $2000, the largest attorney fee ever paid in Missoula county. A ladies rifle club, the first in the United States was organized Wednes-day at Butte. It bears the name of the Annie Oakley rilie club, in honor of the young lady who gained such fame as a shot a few years ago with Buffalo Bill's wild west. Husbands whose hours have been irregular will make a decid-ed reform at once. Helena Journal- - One hot day last week C. V., a well known rancher of Flat creek, while out with his team espied a cool, clear stream by the roadside and at once decided upon a swim. No one being in sight, quickly disrobing, he carefully laid his clothes in the wagon aud started for the water. Hardly had he reached it when off started the team, clothes and all, with the man close be-hind. Fortunately there were no ladies out that day, and after a hard chase of two miles he caught the horses. Sheriff Gleasou of Dawson county made what in all probability will turn out an important capture last week, at G'.endive. It appears that about last Jovemberamaa named John Nelson killed his partner at Superior. .Wis., and made his escape. For about six uekiS p,ast a man calling himself Charles Johnson has been working on the steel gang at Glendive. and the sheriff noticed that he answered the description of Nelson, and shadowed him for several days, fiuallv arrestiug him. Ivvo men who kuew Nelson have identified him. and the Wisconsin au- thorities l.ave telegraphed to hold the man at all hazards. Third parties in politics as well as is courtship are a delusion, a snare and a nuisance. Thb old parties in Maryland are in fiot water because the prohibitionists have put np a cold water ticket.

There was no earthly reason for the organization of a third, party in Colo-rado. Fruita is a new Colorado town. It bus 100 acres of land and a nauie as a starter. A heavy snow storm was one of the oncer things that occurred in South Park last week. The Farmers' Alliance is struggling along in Colorado without any visible means of support. According to the rural press "gang rule" is manipulating the political ma-chine in Colorado. Nothing remains of Sheridan Lake except the county officers and the "official county paper." The Denver Republican will pav a round sum for a sure remedy which will remove tho taste of crow 'from the mouth. The Pueblo Star says the democrats can carry the state this fall if they will "nominate ah honest ticket." The ob-ligation is too great.
