Governor Hor-ace Boies opened the campaign by a st!rring speech in this city to-da- y in the presence of thousands of enthusiastic Democrats. In his speech he declared this to be the most important campaign of recent years. The tariff question was the great issue and the time for the farmers to demand surcease from unjust, unequal and excessive taxation had arrived. He made an exhaustive tariff argument, producing statistical proof of hia I LATEST. 5 O'CLOCK. 1 HE MILLS MEETINGS. Three Thousand People Mtn to the Evangelist Lut Mlht "Therefore they could not believe," was the text last night from which Evangelist Mills addressed 3000 people. The question is as to whether men may be spiritually dead while physically ailTe. Their hearts were hardened so that they would not and could not believe. Christ said: ."If any man shall sin against the Son of Man it shall be for-given him, but whoso committed blasphemy against the Holy Spirit it shall never be for-given him." It is because the spirit is the best and the last manifestations of God's love. The very last thing God can do Is to give the gift of Holy Spirit; He has done His best to save you, and you are lost for-ever. If men seal their eyes, their ears, then God seals them forever. If men har-den their hearts, then God hardens them so they cannot be softened. The trouble is not that you have a skeptical bead, but a skepti-cal heart. There U no Infidelity or unbelief that is not born of unfaithfulness towards God, and the time will come if ou don't look out when you will get past feelKg, and then you will be post hope. If they fall away repentance is impossible, seeing toey crucify Christ again and put Him to an opev shame. When Esau sold his birthright what was it? It was his spiritual capacity, the ability to lay hold on God! There are times when the spirit of prayer is gone from peo-ple for "their frienda who have committed the unpardonable sin. Thought upon the subject clears the mind of doubt and it becomes easier for man to believe the eternal truths. If a soul without Christ goes into eternity calmly that soul is lost. In closing, Mr. Mill said; "We thank Thee that Thou hast inclined the hearts of men. toward Tbce this day. May they set their faces toward God like flint, and oh, how Tby heart is aching over those who are turning away. We pray for those especially that they may be awakened this night."

A bad head-en- d collision occurred at noo n on the Chicago & Northwestern road about three miles west of Marshalltown, between a freight and accommodation train, both running at a high speed on a curve. Sev- - eral train men were seriously injured, some probably fatally. Physicians hastily sum-moned from here have gone to the scene. Particulars are not yet obtainable. Four men are reported under the wreckage, all probably dead. Engineers Ashton and Howes, one fireman and an emigrant whose names were not learned, are dead and still buried under the wreck, and one other fireman is fatally In-jured. It is the worst wreck known in this part of the state for many years. Both engines are completely demolished and the cers piied into a rigged mass near by twenty feet deep. STEVENSON IS THE SOUTH.

That the general principles of the national Republican party are those best adapted to pro- mote tha we.f.ire of our territory, protect its in-dustries an1 product", and secure t its people the just revvard of their 1st or. We are uncompromisingly in favor of the American system oi protection. The protective system must be manttiiaed; its abandonment hss always been followed by general disaster to all interests except those of "the usurer and the sheriff. '1 lie principle of protection to American pro-ducts and hibor is of the highest importance to the vast agricultural, wool-growin- g and stock-raisin- g interests of our territory. It is of eci:al imporrante to our great mining interests, which furnish go large an amount of re-munerative labor and yield such an important part of our income." Without protection we cannot successfully es-tablish manufacturing in Utah. With it we may hope to utilize the abundance of material our ter-ritory affords and employ the labor required to utilize it. i The Tfepublicans of Utah wiU be unanimously in favor of remonetizing silver and of the frea coinage of American si'.ver.

They will also astert and lecojjnlze the dignity of ,abor and the necessity of proper legislation to prct?ct its Interests. That home laborers and contractors who con-tribute to the public funds are justly entitled to the prefeience in ail pubic works, and Utah work should go to Utah workmen. In view of the peculiar history of Utah in the past and the feara of many ot its citizens for the future, the Republicans will announce 'hat they ere opposed to the disfranchisement of any citi-zen except for crime, and that they will favor the free exercise of the power of amnesty to all citi-zens diffranehised on account of polygamv who will obey and upho;d the laws of the United fetnea.

Progress of tho Content for Organization on National Party Lines. One year ago last February a party of Weber county citizens, who had not forgot-le- u the teachings of their earlier days in the khool of Eastern nollties, met together in Ihe city of Ogden and declared in favor of party division. 'Of that little gathering Col-- C. W. BENNETT. Chairman cf the liepubHran Territorial Con-iwtte-e of Utah. address voted, a meeting- of the representa-tives of the People's party was held and the following resolution adopted : Whereas, It is desirable that the dimensions and ttruEKles which have heietofore hindered the development and progress" of this territory should be left behind and obliterated in the march of its people toward there high destiny; Be it renoired. That it in the sense of the terri-torial central committee of the reople's party of Utah, that the party throughout the territory slionid dissolve and leave its members free to unite with the creat national parties according to their individual preferences. On the same date of the above meeting, a m eetinr was held of the Liberal party and the action of the Democratic and Republi-co- n parties was condemned; another meet-ing in June also passed resolutions to the eft'-c- t that party division was a fatal mis-take, and in the resolutions passed at that meetintr one reads this clause: - This committer views with sincere rearret the drifting oft of a few Republicans on party lines, and look with confidence to their 6peedy retuta to the party that has made possible each ad-vances in the political, social and material pro-gress of Utah as have thus far been accom-plished. Aeainst this resolution Mr. Arthur Brown protested. Many of the leading Gentiles of this city and the territory at large were willing and did accept the declaration of the disso-lution of the People's party in good faith. That resolution of dissolution has accom-plished just what it aimed to do. The Peo-ple's party has dissolved and members of that old-tim- e political organization are now affiliating themselves with either one or the other of the two national parties. THE PROGRESS OP REPUBLICANISM. Not only in the organization, of a Repub-lican territorial narty have these pioneers of political progress been beset with diffi-culties, but in municipal elections in the larger cities of L'tah difficulties have been encountered which were more than discour-oaguitng. When the People's party dropped of existence the Democratic party forth-with established itself and many of its great mass of voters left without a party immed-atel- y Joined themselves to the Democratic party as the choice between that and the Liberal party, which had so bitterly fought them in years gone by. They knew nothing of tiieteachings of Republicanism and ac-cepted anything rather than affiliate with Liberals. On the 24th of November, 1891, the Repub-lican organization in the territory was re-cognized by the national committee at Washington, D. C, and a resolution passed by the committee urging the cessation of local differences and unity in rescuing the territory from Democratic control. Since the recognition of the Republican party progress has been rapid and the future is bright indeed. Gains have been made m all cities where municipal elections have been held, and everywhere additions have been made to the Republican ranks. Take for comparison these cities, Salt Lake City, Logan, Provo. Smithfieid and Mt. Pleasant. In Salt Lake City the Republicans cast but 335 votes in the legislative election of 1891. In the municipal election last February the vote was 852. This is a most flattering gain. In Provo, 280 vots were cast in 1891; in February last the Rsnublicans cast 420. In Logan, against 22S cast in 1891, the Re-publicans polled 400 votes and carried their ticket through. In Smithoeld the party gained twenty-seve- n on tho legislative vote and elected the municipal ticket. In Mount Pleasant over 100 votes were gained and Republican officials placed in of-fice. It is easy to see that a ratio of gain all over the territory such as this would place the Republican party beyond the least doubt of detest at the coming fall election. . ' The Republican party in this territory has ' (Continued on page 2.) !nl Allan Miller, David II. Baldridge and Charles S. King were members, and many times since have they referred to that initia-tory stop in terms of the greatest satisfac-tion. As a result of that meeting, the Ogden $t,tti(7xrl, Frank J. Cannon, editor, at once Seclared in favor of the movement and an-nounced that hereafter it would advocate Republican doctrine. The impetus thus given to the movement was increased by the organization of a political club in Ogden, known at that time as the "Republican club of Weber county." A county central com-mittee was organized and the new party placed upon a firm footing in that vicinity. Today you may go where you will in Utah territory and you will not find harder work-ers nor more enthusiastic Republicans than the gentlemen of Weber county who shout for Benjamin Harrison and protected in-dustries. TIIE WOKE IN 9ALT LAKE CITT. ' It was not until May, 1891, that the Repub-lican of Salt Lake City made a united move to give the party a recognized position in this territory. Presidnnt Woodruff's mani-festo to the church covering the abolition of polygamy had been given the previous fall and the peace loving citizens of the com-munity bad accepted it as final. Therefore, on the month above named, the Republicans of this city attempted to organize a Central Republican club, but the meeting was broken up by people who were not desirous of see-ing Republicanism spring to life. On the i!0ili of the month, however, another meeting was held at the theater, and the following address (given in part) was sent out to the people of L'tah. ADDRESS TO THE PEOPLE. The antioMJut in favor of organizing political Karties in Utah in harmony with national parties IRRIGATED FARMS. The Census Bureau Issues a Bulletin Upon the Subject. Washington, Sept. 15. The ceusus bu-reau Las issued a bulletin upon the general subject of irrigation in the Western states. It is shown that of 124,808 farms enumerated in the arid region in June 1890, 53,584, or 42.13 per cent, contained land on which crops were raised in 1889 by the artificial ap-plication of water. . The entire area of land irrigated was S,564,416- - acres, or 20.72 per cent of the total area. Of the 52,584 irrigated farms, 9.65 per cent of. the total area of the whole number of farms enumerated,, and is about one-ha- lf of one per cent of the total land area in the arid region. f j NEW YORK IS N'OTSCARED.

The few cases which have appeared here, ana which were con-cealed by the board of health, have in no way alarmed the authorities or citizens. The people here have become educated up to a point of having little or no fear of the formerly dreaded disease. The immigrant passengers of the steamer Friesland which arrived here August 29 seem to have brought the disease to little Minnie Levinger, who died Septem-ber 11. They are traced back to Antwerp, which they reached from other cities of Europe doubtless infected with cholera. When they reached quarantine there was no illness reported aboard, and after a few hours' attention and fumigation they were allowed to proceed. From the steamship pier the passengers scattered over the city and country. Four young women went to the house where little Minuie lived. The infection was probably in their clothing as they escaped the attack themselves. It is authoritively stated that nine steam-ships carrying 5000 immigrants are en route to this country. Among the Bteamers now en route with steerage passengers are the Ionian line steamer Indiana from Liverpool September 10, with 600 in the steerage; the Anclior line steamer Ethiopia from Glasgow September 1, 189 steerage; the Hamburg American line steamer Bohemia from Ham-burg August 31, with 683 in the steerage; the steamer Polario from Stettin September 1, with 184 in the steerage; North German line steamer Herman from Bremen Septem-ber 7, with 300 in the steerage; the Fabre line steamer Massillia from Naples Septem-ber 13, with 400 in the steerage.

A CITIZENS' MEETING ' ' Chairman Haines Does Not Consider It His Duty to Call One UPON THE PAVING PROPOSITION Councilman Wantland Differs From This View While Senator 91 oran Thinks the Council and Board of Public Works Should Settle the Question Themselves. Chairman Haines of the board of public works was called upon by a Times reporter this morning, and asked his opinion as to the advisability of calling a meeting of the taxpayers interested in the Main street pav-iu- g, for the purpose of ascertaining their wishes with respect to the material to be used. Mr. Haines received the Times man cordially, and said: "I consider that a matter with which the board of public works has nothing to do. That rests entirely with the city council. The law prescribes all the preliminary steps, and the matter is then referred to the board to report on the bids to the council, the latter body taking the final action. Our duty in this matter is plain, being simply to determine as to which is the lowest and best bid, and report thereon." Then Mr. Haines rushed off to the grand j ury room. COUXCILMAS WAXTLAND'8 VIEWS. Councilman Wantland doesn't agree with Chairman II ai nes. He thinks that if there is to be a meeting of property owners it is clearly the duty of the board of public works to call it, and is inclined to think that such a meeting would be a very good thing. COCXCILMAX HOR1X. Senator Moran attacked the dilemma in his usual direct way. He thought that the board and council should go ahead and do their duty. They were the representatives of the people, and a public meeting was un-necessary. The council and board could not Fut the responsibility off on some one else, for them to dispose of it, and if they couldn't do it, or were afraid to act, they should resign.

Lincoln Carter, a well-know- n playwright anc theatrical manager, is visiting this city, which is his birth place, after an absence of nearly fifteen years. He is a son of Carrie Coggswell, who fifteen years ago was a favorite actress attached to the Salt Lake theater, and the young man's advent into the world was almost simultaneous with the receipt of the news of the assassination of President Lincoln. As a reminder of the event he was christened Lincoln, a name that he has since carried to fame and for-tune. The many old-tim- e admirers of his mother, a most estimable woman, have ex-tended him a cordial greeting and all were pleased to learn that she is now enjoying good health and is comfortably living in re-tirement at her country home near Niagara Falls, N.

In Larnapot, a town of Austrian-Galici- a, as a number of boys at-tending the gymnasium were leaving the building yesterday after their studies for the day were ended, a lad named John Schwe-da- i drew a revolver, and without a word of warning fired at Prof. Dr. Felix Glowacki, killing him instantly. Schwedai then turned his weapon against himself and blew his brains out. The murder was due to a grudge the boy had entertained for a long time against the professor. m Death of John Judge. Unstained and spotless, his soul has re-turned to God, as white as it came. The news of the demise of John Judge will bring sorrow to many a heart in the far East, for the man was loved as a brother by all who knew him. Mr. Judge lived an active and honorable life, and after serving four years in the Union army, came home at the last close of the war and engaged in mining. Up to a few months ago he hade barge' of the Daly mine, and he discharged every trust imposed upon him with the strictest fidelity," and to his ability and energy is largely due the splendid development of that mine. When at last the disease from which he died had gained such headway that his tired haads could no longer work, he laid down the burden unwillingly and came down from the mountains to await the end, which came yesterday. At no time was the man's unfaltering courage more strongly shown than when the shadows were gathering about him. He faced the last great crisis as he had faced every other cri-sis in life, and expressed his thankfulness that he could leave his wife and children pro-vided for. Then, without a murmur, he awaited the end. The sympathy of the en-tire community will go out to the stricken widow and children. The funeral will take place from the Cath-olic church tomorrow at 1:80 p. no. The Marahalship. The delay in appointing a United States marshal to succeed Mr. Parsons is taken by those who claim to know something about the matter as being favorable to ex-Ma- r-shal Shaughnessey, as it will give him an op-- 1 portunity to bring his strong Eastern sup-port to his aid. J. A. Benton and Arthur Pratt, who made a hot fight for the place from the start, are now resting on their oars. Mr.TIadley, the candidate of the Federa-ted Trades, is not believed to have any show. Earl D. Gray has gone to Washington to urge his claims. He has some local sup. port, but is relying upon hia being a relative of Whitelaw Reld to pull him through. Meanwhile Marshal Parsons is taking things quietly and enjoying Mfe as usual. The administration, it would seem, is not in o great a hurry for his head as was first represented. , .. .
