Show VARIAN, BROWN AND TRIBUNE. In last Saturday's Salt Lake Herald Hon. O. S. y'arlan rovlofl's tho, flnactal portion o,f u, Republican spoeeli delivered de-livered by oi-Sonutor Brbtfn at Ogdon the day bqfore. In this speech Mr. Drown says: UtmeltiUm mint bq approached con-8ervatlve)y.hnuce con-8ervatlve)y.hnuce tho tariff laVy should continue lu operation until this country becomes rich enough to nay pit its great iii'l';lt,6; Indebtedness andUuSn wo cjiri more easily obtain blmetallJim 'Vw greatest iibsta.c,le on tho free coin-MkiLrM'Y!1 coin-MkiLrM'Y!1 I tte KCeat amount of State exeipt Utah, has pronuuiiccd for the idnglo gold standard pcrno.ineuily. In Utah, while thu Republicans have ondorsed the "policies'" of McKlnloy. which cannot mean anything but the perpetuation of thu gold standard,t))ey have still adopted 11 blbrld pjufiorw, wlijch may mean sonpithlngnr nothing for thu silver, probably thu latter, Mr. yarlau says: Senator Drown was chnlrninn of that convention and his- Itilltioiicc nppars to havii domlnato 1 It. Ills Interpretation Interpreta-tion of Republicanism, In Utah may to acccpied as atithoiltiillvc, Hu holds that tho restoration of tlio cotiulry of lilmetnllFiu uitist be deferred until tliroimh the operation of tb tariff laws the country is able to piy off lis private indebtedness, and that the greatest qbs'aclo to tho free coinage of .silver 's the pa por money In circulation, circula-tion, which must bo replaced by silver. This, he infers, must bi done 'through the Sliver that Is to be pilued.fnr which reason thu Job will take ten years. Docs Senator llrown anticipate a tlmo In all eternny when tho private, 'n-dobledtioa 'n-dobledtioa 0 tho people will b,q liquidated? liqui-dated? Uijea he understand tho true mini mn between the money volume of the Natlop and' ilm debts of labor? Thu Indebtedness of this country, public pub-lic and private, must, all bo paid by tho labor of the people, and month by month, year by yenr, with a restricted money volume and Increasing population popula-tion and necessities, the money with which thu debts must bo paid Is appreciating appre-ciating In value;. We may say here (lint the Salt Lako Tribune In replying to Mr. Yurlan disclaims dis-claims Hint ex-Senalnr Drown represent repre-sent tho Republican flarty or that ho Is authorized to spoak for. It. Also says that "he (llrown) has never opened his mouth about sliver that ho has not emphasized em-phasized the fact that ho knows nothing about It." Now, isn't thill rather' an absinjl proposition In view of tho fact that Mr. llrown was chosen chairman of tho Republiean Stale convention, that he Is being sent out by tho Stntu Republican committee to speak for nnd represent the party? Ho evidently knows enough ahqtit tho sllvor quos-ilon quos-ilon to coorjerate with tho other agents of Eahnu in hoodwinking some of tho people, and wo bollcvo wo arc safu In saylm: that hu rcprtseuis vastly more of the Utah Republicans than does the Tribune. Tho Trlbuno answers an-swers ouo of Mr. Varlau's Inquiries by denying that It endorses i-x-Souator Brown's position on the silver question, ques-tion, but It utterly fulls to show why, when It could not support Iho St.Louls platform In 1800, it can now swallow all that platform, although It is 110. v interpreted by tlio National Republican lenders to mean simply tho gold stand,; aid. Mr. Varum tefers to tho rapt that the great Republican lender who spent years to bring that parly 'to sound Ununclal principles have ubtu-doned ubtu-doned It In dispalr, whllo tho Tribune assorts that "there Is no sliver )spo bdtwjinn tlio parties In Utah."1' As Mr. Vurlnn says, Gnrje and llnnntv have decided that tho question Is settled and tire tittomptint, to make tho tariff question the dominating one. As to Utah Republicans, Mr. Yuriau says; Thore Is no question us to tho. a(tl-tudo a(tl-tudo uf iho Republican parly everywhere every-where but In Utah.

Wo nro glad Mr. Yurlim wroto his letter to the Herald, as It has brought forth u response which should forever settle the question ns to whether Utah Republicans Re-publicans aro for silver. The Tribune either moans that id docs not intend to strive for the election of silver men or It means that It is willing to throw awry lis sliver views In furtherance of Its niotto, "Anything to beat tho licm-ocrnts licm-ocrnts Tho Republican pnrty of Utah would hnvo been moro honest had It followed the advice of even tho Provo Knqtilrer, which In commenting upon tho platform said: In only ono singlo wny did tho convention con-vention deviate trom true Republican-Ism, Republican-Ism, mill that was In tho "independant" freo colnngo of silver.
