After election it would be well for citizens who are interested in the mat-ter to propose that the city council pro-vide a commission with these things in view. We feel sure that the develop-ment of the city could be considerably hastened by this means. THE CITY LANDS. Salt Lake City owns some 15, 000 acres of lands in and about City Creek canyon and between the capitol grounds and the hot springs. These lands, of course, are unproductive, and yet they ought to be made serviceable in assisting the growth and develop-ment of the city. The possibilities of City Creek canyon and its immediate neighborhood are not generally realized. For some distance above the present residence district the land immediately about it ought to be-come a very picturesque aod desirable locality for homes. It is capable of very great improvement and the thing that stands in the way of such improve-ment is the fact that private parties find difficulty in dealing with the city. It is suggested by some who have given the subject a good deal of thought that a city park commission might greatly . facilitate . the develop-ment of a district where the city is largely interested as a land owaer. This would at least furnish a responsi-ble board for private parties to deal with when they desire to purchase any of this publio land, or to deal with the city with a view to improving their own land. This city property under good management ought to provide a con-siderable fund for the improvement of other public property. A city com-mission weuld render good service If it did nothing but examine into and re-port upon the best way to utilize the lands the city owns. It could do much Indiana have heard less in that time of protection and free trade,' of states' rights and nationality, than the people of Utah, with no vote in the electoral college, have heard. Can any man close his eyes to the mighty significance of these facts? Can any man say he is not glad that the old, unnatural situation has given away at last before the fierce contention of national parties and rival ideas? We say the campaign of the last four months in Utah is worth everything to our people, and we are glad to have had an humble part in it. WHAT THIS CAMPAIGN HAS DONE. No matter who is elected to office next month, the wonderful campaign now coming to a close has been a blessed thing for Utah. The most un-relenting Liberal ought to rejoice at the spectacle which his eyes behold. f Until eighteen months ago the major-ity of the people of Utah stood arrayed in one solid phalanx. The party name they bore meant nothing to Americans. It was the badge of a peculiar element in politics. During the past four months Ameri- - can ideas and American politics have been preached in every newspaper, on every platform and at every fireside.

He makes a striking comparison between the campaigns of the elder and younger Harrison. The former was the most exciting in our history, and the latter is proving to be the least so. On this subject Mr. Blaine says: The elder Harrison's campaign took place !a a nation of seventeen million people. Every man in the country, nearly every woman, it may almost be said every child, was engaged for months In watching its progress and shaping- its result. It would be impossible for the younger Harrison to enlist the same degree of popular attention, and it would be a serious interference with the business or the country u u were possi-ble. Vast commercial and financial opera-tions supremely interest so many men that a large proportion of the population give no more attention to an election than simply to vote, and even this patriotic duty is too often neglected. Mr. Blalne also compares the length of letter of acceptance in our day and in earlier times, to show how our polit-ical methods have changed. He points out that Lincoln's platform was made for him by the convention, whose nomination be accepted in a letter of just eleven lines. The candidates of this day write long letteri and mate-rially modify their party platforms, bo that the candidate's opinions, rather than the platform, is accepted by the people as the official declaration of principles. Mr. Blaine finds President Harrison's letter clear and forceful, but regards Cleveland's as open to serious criticism. He thinks Cleve-land has repudiated his free trade platform in a measure and has even greatlj' modified the tone of his 1887 message by the discussion of the tariff in his letter of acceptance. When Mr. Cleveland has read Mr. Blaine's analysis of his expression on the currency, "national or state," we imagine be will feel a little foolish, for the keen-eye- d Maine statesman leaves him in a dilemma. Mr. Blaine points out that tbe clamor for state money comes from the South and that it is pos-sible for the government to regulate it only by the imposition of the tax, as it now does. Mr. Blaine's reference to the billion-dolla- r congress is genial and playful at the expense of the Democracy. His reference to the pension roll is dignified and patriotic. He is not ehocked by the fact that we pay more for pensions than any European nation for its stand-ing army. "Surely," he says, "the binding up of the wounds of a past war is more merciful and honorable work than preparing the country for a new one." The moat entertaining feature of Mr. Blaine's article is the manner in which he deals with the force bill. He says this issue, which really has no legiti-mate place in the campaign, has in some sections been made the leading issue. He gives the credit for this pe-culiar turn to Charles A. Dana, and then proceeds to, show why this accom-plished editor, a Republican at heart on the tariff and currency, found it necessary to invent a new issue. Mr. Blaine's statement of the force bill matter from a conservative Republican standpoint should be read by every-body. The country is entirely familiar with Mr. Blaine's views on reciprocity, but his presentation of them in this article is rather more brilliant than usual, be-cause it is based on facts recently ob-tained from the state department. It is evident that he regard his connec-tion with this policy as one of the most gratifying features of his public life. He closes his article with a compari- - son of the platforms of the two parties, in which he shows how much alike they are in everything except their expres-sions on the tariff, reciprocity and state banks. He makes the wise observation that it would be well "if parties would aim to discover and define those sub-jects upon which there is a vital differ-ence of opinion, and would confine dis-cussion to those issues." He lays that this would greatly help in arriving at the truth, "which is the ultimate object of popular discussion and popular elec-tion." MR. BLAINE ON THE CAMPAIGN. When James G. Blaine speaks everybody listens, and when he writes everybody reads. For the fame of this statesman is wider than party lines and broader than national boundries. He is to this country what Bismarck is to Ger-many and Gladstone to England. Whether in office or in retirement, whether in the chair of state or in their library at home, these men are always interesting, and what they think about public questions is of moment to the world. Mr. Blaine contributes to the North American Review for November a re-view of the present presidential elec-tion. It is a splendid statement of conservative yet progressive Republi-canism. It is written in his usual bril-liant style and every topic mentioned gains from his treatment a different sort of illumination than any other man ran give it. A briof review of this article is good reading for men of all parties. Mr. Blaise begins by remarking up- - "Scott, Scott, George M. Scott!" there were multitudes who were determined not only to overthrow the Peopl's party, but to inslituto a new order of things. Some went to work immediately after the victory to carry their purpose into execution, while others fol-lowed in the course of humm events. If Judge Powers were to marshal his forces in a street parade tonight he would find half of them absent and not accounted for. That February election was a revolution and revo-lutions never go backward. If there is a man in Utah who has every reason to be convinced of this fact, it is Judge Goodwin himself. When in the autumn of 1890 that is to say only a few months after Scott's election he "ran for congress the number of deserters from the Liberal party was already legion. Figures are too dry to array, and it is scarcely nec-essary to adduce them here in support of this statement. No man nor set of men can create parties unless public sentiment is ripe for them. Napoleon the first, genius though he was, did not profit by the emeute which he dis-persed but by the discontent which it em-bodied. And so with the coup f. etat of his nephew. Hemmed in as Utah was by terri-tories aspiring to statehood she alone could no longer withstand the pressure for ad-vancement, however gradual. Democrats and Republicans are waging an earnest fight for supremacy in this territory. Old issues and prejudices creep in, as they necessarily must, but they only show that the movement is honest. That is to say that the people cannot wean them-selves of their old love over night, and they do not pretend to. This is a campaign of education, and the man who will derive the createat amount of knowledge through it is Mr. C. E. Allen. He will learn that divis-ion really divides. THE FREE LANCE. All through the campaign the complaint has been made that the people are indiffer-ent; that it is impossible to infuse life and enthusiasm into the canvass, and that General Apathy has command of all the forces. Now comes tbe news from ths various political centers that the registration is unprecedently heavy, even though the most liberal allowance be made for the natural increase in population. This shows that the complaint was unwar-ranted, and the abatement is not one of in-terest, but only one in noise, in brass bands and torchlight processions. national men have often wondered why so much energy and cash should be ex-pended upon mere trappings which may serve to call out the masses, but can-not carry to the thoughtful mind convic-tion. It seems that a change is coming over the country and the fire rockets and German band as a campaign argument is passing away. Certainly the money thus spent can be better invested in furnishing literature and supplying speakers, as is being done this time. - - Perhaps no more demonstrative campaign was ever conducted anywhere in the United States than that preceding .the municipal election in Salt Lake in February, 1690. It lasted longer than a presidential campaign and it contained features, such as the illum-ination of private houses, that had never been introduced anywhere else before. And yet it is doubtful whether the result varied by a single vote from what it would have been without such clap-tra- The Liberal and Peoples' parties turned out every man that would be turned out, and when tbe re-turns were all in it was found that the ab-sentees formed the same percentage as in any decisive political battle. Those who af gue that the division move-ment was a sudden revelation forget that memorable contest. Among the host of Lib-erals that marched through mud and snow to the beat of the drum and to tbe cry, Dr. Ensor Interviewel A "Times" Correspon-dent Interviews Dr. Ensor. the Celebrated Discoverer of The En-sor Vegetable Cure For Drunkenness. "When did you first discover that drunken. ness was a curable diseaseV "Well, I have been convinced oft hat fact for many years. In my early practice of medicine it fell to my lot to have quite a number oi patients who suffered more or less from the effects of alcoholic stimulant and I became so deeply interested in these cases that I devoted a great deal of my time to the study of this particular practice. And as I was more or less successful I became more and more interested until at last 1 came to the conclusion that drunkenness must be a disease and that such being tho case I would devote my whole time to the discovery of a safe and certain remedy." "How long ago, doctor, is it that you first became so deeply interested in this branch of your profession?" "About three years ago my attention was called to an article in one of our medical Journals on the fearful effects of alcoholism on the human system. This article caused me deep thought; in fact, I may say it ab-sorbed my thought for several days and caused me to renew my researches, with what result you already know." "You do not consider it a vice that may bo acquired by association, then ?" , "A vice? no, sir; but it is a disease that may be founded by association in this way: A man begins to use stimulants in most cases out of a spirit of sociability; he forms a habit and the habit grows upon him until continued use of stimulants forms the dis-ease of drunkenness." "When did you begin to use your present formula, which has proved so successful?" "About two years ago. The first formula I used (although it removed an appetite for liquor) left the patient.in a very unsatisfac-tory condition, and it was not until two years ago that I discovered exactly what I wanted." "How are your patients after treatment now !" "Splendid. I have the first one to hear from who has anything but praisejfor my remedy. The medicine not only removes all desire for alcoholic stimulants from! the pa-tients for ever, but it builds up the system, brightens the intellect, restores and strength-ens their manhood and, in fact, makes new men of them in every particular." "Ton do not use a mineral cure, do you, doctor?" "No, my remedy is purely vegetable; it is mild but effective. No one has yet died or gone insane from using my remedy. It is a tonic, a blood purifier, a nerve medicine, and an enemy to all alcoholic stimulants." "I have been informed that some of these cures impair the patient's manhood. Is this the truth, or simply told by enemies of these remedies?" 'I cannot answer for any of the other cures, but as far as the Ensor vegetable cure ia concerned, permit me to say, sir, that such is not the case ; on the other hand it is the greatest building-u- p medicine ever discov-ered." "Do you guarantee a cure in all cases?" "Yes. I have never yet known a failure." "Do any of your patients ever return to their former habits ?" "I am sorry to eay that I have had cases who returned to the path of drunkenness, but only a very few out of many thousands who have taken my remedy and they ad-mitted that they went back deliber-ately and maliciously, either on account of family troubles or low associates. You ..n't .VAtrnnt o man vlin aliha.at.W t.l-a-. glass after glass of liquor until he finally keeps one down, from lapsing into his old ways. They are to be pitied, for they must certainly lack that stability which goes to prove the man." "How many institutes have you now, doctor?" "I am sure I can't quite say, but I have them established almost everywhere and new ones are opening up every day." "How many have you in Utah?" "Four are now open and I expect to have two more running in a few days." "What success is the Salt Lake institute meeting with?" "Unparalelled, sir positively wonderful thsy have had some of the worst cases there that have come under my notice and have not met with a single failure or a single f v lapse." "How about the medical fraternity do they oppose you much ?" "Not as much as I expected. They have in-vestigated my remedy and satisfied them- - selves that it is a great discovery. See that pile of letters? They aro from prominent physicians stating that they feel pleasure in recommending my treatment. I consider this very flattering, because they do not feel the same confidence in other cures." "What class of patients do you get most-ly?" "All classes. I have had professional men, bankers, brokers, merchants and laborers. Men who have this terrible disease are all anxious to be cured. They only want te feel that the remedy is safe, a wif fc and cer-tain." "You have had the same success with mor-phine and tobacco diseases?" "Yes; I have met with greater success than any other institute established, according to number of patients cured." "Do you expect to be in 8alt Lake soon?, 'Yes ; I expect to visit your city in a few weeks, as I shall be making a tour of the different institutes established In the West, and I want to see the elegant new quarters that the Salt Lake Institute now occupy." Well, good-b- y, doctor: don't forget to drop in Thb Times office when you are our way, No, no; I will not Good-b- y. in our grasp a hundred new industries and those we want to encourage. No-body denies that under Republican rule American industries have been main-tained and built up. Utah's future is certain under the rule of the party that has shown by its works how its policies are suited to the growth of new states. Whenever you hear & southern brig-adier preaching Democracy in Utah, just remember that he represents prej-udices and memories in which you have no share, and that he is asking you to tight out the old battles of an expiring race of politicians, who have been sat upon so emphatically at home that they have been obliged to seek new pas-tures. The southern brigadier may be all right as a man, but he should be guarded like a pest-stricke- n patient when he enters the politics of the fair and hopeful West. SOUTHERN BRIGADIERS IN UTAH. Utah Democrats are taking their les-sons from tho lips of southern briga-diers. This is unfortunate, for the southern brigadier is the worst type of a virulent and dubious party. If Utah Democrats were learning their lessons from modern Democrats, like William E. Russell of Massachusetts, the spec-tacle would be less pitiable, for there is a certain amount of sweetness and light about the hopeful young Demo-crats of the North. The southern brigadier is the true Bourbon. He learns nothing and for-gets nothing. His mind ia so full of prejudice that it can contain no ideas, and his heart so full of bitterness as to exclude all faith in his follow men. Take a wornout political hack from the turbid atmosphere of Democratic districts in Mississippi or Kentucky, and transplant him to the pure ozone and untrodden soil of a new western state and he is sure to breed a pestilence. He is a cholera germ in politics. He has become too noisome for the South, and it is pretty tough to have him removed to the West. Now, the South is Democratic on the issues of thirty years ago. She is Dem-ocratic because the negro has survived the war and because she thinks he is a menace to her happiness. She is Demo-cratic cause her chivalrous sons went down before the chivalrous sons of a Republican North. These may be good reasons why the South should be Democratic, but Utah owes no grudge to the Republican North, and has no fear of negro domin-ation, and why should she be asked to be Democratic by these southern briga-diers? We have a new country here. Our future is all before us. We have cer-tain industries well established, and those we want to maintain. We have TO LIBERAL REPUBLICANS. The Times believes that thousands of men who Btill acknowledge allegiance to the Liberal party will cast their votes for the straight Republican candidate for congress one week from next Tues-day. We believe this because the straight Republican party of Utah has earned the confidence and respect of men who are Liberals in local affairs and Republicans in national politics. The straight Republican party and its candidate, by a straightforward and glorious campaign, have won the right to ask every man who believes in pro-tection, and every man who holds in high hoDor the great names and the great traditions of 'Republicanism, to vote for Frank J. Cannon for congress There are many men in Utah, and es-pecially in Salt Lake county, who hon-estly believe the continued supremacy of Liberalism in local affairs is desira-ble for a time. With these men we have no quarrel. We understand how they can desire to see the local power the power that comes nearest to us all still wielded by those who in the last few years have inaugurated great public improvements and established a splendid system of public schools. But the argument which the Liberal citizen applies to the local situation does not apply in the same way to the delegate election. When we vote fcr a delegate to con-gress we step outside this valley. We go beyond the Wasatch mountains. We enter the arena of national thought. We breathe the air of genuine Ameri-can politics. We forget our provincial-ism and remember only that we are a part of a great nationality. Our vote is as precious to us as the vote of a citizen of New York, or Ohio, or California. That vote is our expres-sion of opinion upon issues that mean everything to the future of our country. We will express our local views when we vote for local officers, but when we vote for national officers we will ex-press our national views. Every man who believes in protec-tion and reciprocity, and the great moral ideas of which the Republican party is the exponent, should in the matter of delegate vote for the Repub-lican condidate. Another thing. The Liberal party i3 in Democratic hands. It is in the hands of a man who has ambitions and who is accummulating power that he may gratify those ambitions. He looks beyond today.Tomorrow he hopes to lead the Democratic host3. With a cunning worthy of David B. Hill, he dictates the nomination of a so-call- Republican by the Liberal party in or- - der to keep Republican votes away from the party of protection in the in-terest of the party of free trade. Will Liberal Republicans help that scheme, or will they help the party which Benjamin Harrison has recog-nized to make Utah Republican and enable her to pronounce a ringing ver-dict against free lead, free wool and British free trade? The Republican party has made an honorable campaign. The work of Frank J. Cannon in preaching Repub-licanism to the people of thi3 territory will long outlive the present canvass. The Republicans have kept entirely clear ol all entangling alliances. They now ask Liberal Republicans to help them send to congress a man who be- - lieves in Ijenjamin Harrison and James G. Blaine a man who defends the memory of Abraham Lincoln and James A. Garfield. We do not believe this appeal will be in vain. We believe it will commend itself to thousands of Liberals who are willing to go thus far to build a new Utah above the old and to lay the foundation for enduring Republicanism among these mountains.

They are as silent now Jon that subject as their platform is on wool and lead. But the Republicans are not dodging the issues of this campaign. They are still doing business at the old stand, and they want to know what the Dem-ocrats have to say for themselves in justification of their scheme to pre- - vent the growth of our sugar industry. Republican legislation has reduced the price of sugar 33fr per cent. It has built a great sugar factory in Lehi and opened the way for many others. It has made a new and profitable crop for the farmer, and thereby in-creased the value of land and the in-come of the territory. Continue the sugar bounty, as Re-publicans desire, and we will have more factories, more profitable crops, more work for laborers, more new life in old towns. If the Democrats have a more .inspir-ing sugar programme than this, let them trot it out. There are only ten days now before the train leaves for Salt river, and their baggage is checked. CHURCH INFLUENCE. We are pretty near the end of a won-derful political campaign in Utah, and the nearer we approach to the end the more we hear of church influence. It is not the Republican party that is mak-ing this fuss about church influenc. be-cause Republicans are well satisfied with the real issues they have in hand. It cannot be denied that there ia such a thing as church influence in this cam-paign. It would be very strange if such were not the case. But it is not true that that influence is being used for the benfit of one party more than another. Both parties are using it as much as they can, while the Liberal party de-pends exclusively on anti-churc- h influ-ence to hold its forces together. This is not tho first time, and Utah is not the first place, where church influ-ence has been used in politics. Who bas forgotten the enthusiasm with which Campbellites all over the coun-try greeted the nomination of Gab-fiel- d twelve years ago. "Brother Garfield" carried the Campbellite vote pretty solidly because of church pride and church influence. The writer heard his campaign prayed for in Campbellite meetings, and observed at the time that "amens" came from Dem-ocrats and Republicans impartially. General Grant was not a remarka-bly devout man, but he was known to be a Methodist at heart, and that fact counted in his favor, very naturally. We do not know how much strength Benjamin Harrison draws from Pres-byterians, but we do know that relig-ious people take great pride in his manly piety and that church influence has contributed somewhat to the es-teem in which he is held in many quar-ters. , l, This list might be indefinitely ex-tended, because it is human nature to think well of a man who agrees with you in religion, or who belongs to your race or nationality. It cannot be claimed that this is the noblest influ-ence in potties, but the influence has existed inf thiB , country since John WiNTHROF(S day, and it wjljexist as long as large bodies of men and wo-men think alike on religious subjects. We do not mean to say that the case in Utah is precisely parallel to cases that may be cited in other parts of the country, but it is the same in the es-sence. It rests on the same kind of human nature. j We think a great deal too much is being made of the matter here. We sincerely believe there are stroDg Dem-ocrats and strong Republicans among the Mormons, and if they are anxious for their party to succeed they would naturally exert all the influence thev can to that end. - The more Mormons v.o'e the Repub-lican ticket and fight for the grand old party of protection, the more highly we esteem their patriotism and intelligence. m JOSEPH SMITH'S POLITICS. He Was Not a Free Trader, as the Demo-crats Try to Make Believe. Salt Lake Citt, Oct. 28, 1902. Editor Salt Lake Times: Dear Sir: Cer-tain papers published in Utah and Idaho in the interest of the Democratic party have been, since the breaking up of the People's party, almost constantly endeavoring to make it appear that Joseph Smith was a Democrat. Their object for doing this needs no comment. The Salt Lake Herald of yesterday appears anxious to impress this same idea upon the minds of its readers in an article headed as follows: The question is, was Joseph Smith a protec-tionist? When be was nominated for president, his friends passed a resolution for tree trade and sailors' rights. The point sought to be made, of course, is that Joseph Smith was a believer in free trade in the same sense that the term is now used. But what are the facts? In "Leading Facts of American History," a work published by Montgomery, under the auspices of the Chautauqua Literary and Scientific Circle, I find the following con-cerning the war of 1812: The real, final cause of the war, however, lay In the fact that England persisted in stopping oar ships, taking American teamen oot of them, and forcing them, under the sting of the lash, to enter her service and fight her battles. This was an oatrage that we could no longer bear thou-sands of out citizens had been kidnapped in this way, and England refused to stop those acts of violence. For this reason congress declared war, in the summer of 1S12. New E Dgland, knowing that such a war would ruin what commerce she had, was opposed to fighting; but the rest of the country thought differently, and, with a hurrah for "free Trade and Bailors'1 Bights," the war began. The author adds by way of footnotes the following: (1) England's ground for seizing our sailors was that many of them were said to be deserter from her service, which was often true. She in-sisted that no British subject could become an American. This was at a time when she could not get her own people to enter her navy, and used to send gasgs of sailors ashore in England, at night, with handcuffs and gsg to seize men and drag them off to fight against France. (2) . By "free trade," we meant freedom to send our merchant ships to what ports we pleased; by "sailors" rights'we meant the protection of Amer-ican seamen against seizure by the British. It was to this that the political slogan adopted by the friends of Joseph Smith, in their attempt to run him for president, re-ferred; not to free trade versus protection, as the Herald's article weuld lead its readers to believe. Directly upon this point I find tbe following from the pen of Joseph Smith, which needs no explanation whatever, in his "Views on the powers and policy of the gov-ernment of the United States." When the people axe secure and their rights properly respected, then the four main pillars of prosperity, viz : agriculture, manufactures, navi-gation and commerce, need the fostering care of government; and ia so goodly a country as ours, where the soil, the climate, the rivers, the lakes and the sea coast; the productions, the timber, the minerals and the inhabitants are so diversi-fied that a pleasing variety accommodates all tastes, trades and calculations, it certainty is the highest point of subversion not to protect the whole northern and southern, eastern and west-ern, center and circumference of the realm by a judicious tariff. It is an old saying and a true one, "If you wish to be respected, respect your-selves." Respectfully, Job. F. Swn- -t . ONE MORE WEEK. There is one more week to win the battle for Republicanism and the great material interests of Utah. Let that week be well employed. Let the Re-publican hosts be organized for victory at the polls. Republican success means the beginning of a new era of prosperity. Republican success is a public duty. IT WILL BE FIREPROOF. Score another victory for The Times another victory in the interest of the people. The Times was alone in its advocacy of the change of plans by which the city and county building should be made entirely fireproof. The Tribune made an elaborate edi-torial effort in opposition. And last evening the city council voted that the building should be fireproof. . This is good public policy and again the coun-cil wins the hearty approval of the peo-ple. ED1TORIAL NOTES-- Milwaukee is doing her best to rival Chicago. Mr. Kawlins will not go to congress by about 1500 majority. Next week begins the season of campaign roorbacks. Look out for them. It is now Private Tam's turn to put the thumbscrews on his tormentors. Republicans, stand up to be counted on election day and surprise yourselves. Utah's Industries are all infant industries and need protection. You know where to get It. Tee Republican county convention did excellent work. Now let the voters do the same thing. Thb people will be able to sleep sounder of nights now that the joint public building is to be fireproof. An art jury in Paris is selecting pictures for the World's fair. Let us hope they will not be altogether French. - - i The "taxpayers' " ticket is dead and C. E. Allen's chances are the same as if ke were running on the "taxpayers' " ticket. Ween last heard from Mr. Rawlins was still charging upon Alexander Hamilton. That is safer than charging upon protected lead and wool. Ween Idaho comes to make her World's fair exhibit, don't let her forget the gifted liar who discovers glaziers, petrified forests and immense quarries. He is a curiosity. At the time of going to press Speaker Crisp had not yet accepted that offer of $200,000 to establish factories at Saginaw, Mich. He deals in theories, not conditions. In 1888 the Democrats claimed New York for Cleveland by 90.000 majority. They depended upon the "extensive power of office, " upon the prestige of their candidate who had never been beaten, and upon Mug-wump influence. Yet on the day before election Senator Gorman wired a confiden-tial friend, "We hope the best, but fear the worst." Now that the Democrats are play-ing their old game of bluff, an inside opin-ion of Senator Gorman's weuld make mighty interesting reading. Miss Francis E. Willard says that "4000 of the 9000 saloons in New York City are mortgaged by twenty brewers, and these saloons control 40,000 votes, or the balance of power in the city; the balance of power in the city controls the state and the state in turn controls the result in tbe nation, so that twenty brewers in the city of New York controls the fate of the nation." That Ia something like Victor Hugo's description of Paris. "Great is the world," said he, "and France is the world, but Paris is France." A TOUCHING LETTER. The following letter, addressed to the citizens of Indianapolis, will go straight to every heart and lift us all, for the moment, above the littleness of partisan politics: My dear old friends and neighbors: I can-not leave you without saying that the tender and gracious sympathy which you have to-day shown for me and for my children, and the much more touching evidence you have given of your love for the dear wife and mother, have deeply moved our hearts. We yearn to tarry with you and to rest near the hallowed spot where your loving hands have laid our dead, but little grandchildren watch in wondering silence for our raturn and need our care, and public business will not longer wait upon my sorrow.

A Democratic newspaper reports that the Republican Times was roasted by the Federated Trades last night for re-ports that have appeared in the news columns of this paper. We do not be-lieve this is true. Members of the Fed-erated Trades know where The Times stands. They know it was the only newspaper that fought for the eight-hou- r ordinance, and the only news-paper that fought for home labor and home material in the paving contract. Thsy know The Times has been with them in every good movement and that it sympathizes with all their aspirations. If any erroneous report has found its way into our news columns, members of the Federated Trades may find in our record the assurance that it will be fully and promptly set right in the same conspicuous place.

One Mass- - achusetts congressman, who happens to be a big woolen manufacturer, is making his campaign principally on this issue. He is fighting for free wool. Of course he is a Democrat. The arguments which he makes will be interesting to the wool-growe- rs of Utah. He explains to his audiences that because of the tariff, wool costs a great deal more in Boston than it does in London, and that if the tariff can only be removed the American price of wool will drop to the free trade standard. Th's, he says, will cheapen the price of woolen goods to Massachu-setts people. We see no flaw ia the gentleman's logic. The removal of the duty would have just that effect, so far as the price of raw wool is concerned. And that is why the people of Utah don't want any Democracy in theirs. Utah does not care to have her income decreased for the benefit of the people of Massa-chusetts. The gentleman who makes this speech, Hon. Moses T. Stevens of North Andover, has not yet asked to have the duty removed on the woolen goods he manufactures. About the time he makes that request Utah will be found asking to have tbe duty taken off of her raw material. In the mean-time, let well enough alone. The Reformed Smokers. Two men, both smoking stumps af cigars, met this morning. "I am smoking too much," one of them, said, "and I believe you are. Let's quit." They agreed to it, and threw away the If stumps. Then they talked a long time abeut being men, and how they intended to break away from the habit that was ruining their health and costing so much money. Then they got to talking about other matters, and finally one of them said: "Have a cigar V The men moved toward a cigar store, lected and lighted a cigar, and then lUa re, formers went their different ways, smoking, entirely forgetting their resolve to referns, Atchison Glob.
