If any Utah Democrat shows Bold-bug propensities pro-pensities he ought to be effectually f.quclched and a decided quietusgiven him, for, if he is notadireetenimisary of the administration he is either act-lutcd act-lutcd by a desire to truckle to federal favor or from the mere desire to be "agin" the majority. The gold-bug element knows full well that one Western gold-bug of influence in-fluence Is worth a dozen in the East, and it Is making Its most strenuous efforts to create an anti-Silver sentiment senti-ment in the West, in h'ipr-s of riding down the flood of eiitliusiiMii which seems to pervade (h" country In the Southern, Middle ami Western States. It seems as though the best chance of success for a Silver administration Is with the Democrats and that the issue this campaign will be on this phase of the financial question, viz., Silver and anti-Silver. McKinley seems to be the choice of the Republicans and few if any have the temerity to claim he Is for Silver his silence alone is golden besides betraying the fear of Eastern politicians politi-cians that the Silver question is not nearly so dead as they affect to be-litvc. be-litvc. No, there Is no hope whatever with the the Republicans and when the solid South is with wc of the West and the great Middle States, as all political straws seem to Indicate, it. behooves all true Silver advocates to assist in the cause, Pury political preferences and let lis unite on Silver. We cannot afford to listen to the straddle platitudes of anyone and look out for administration administra-tion traitors to the cause. They can use their baleful influence to greater results even though in the minority -as to population. Popular opinion must crowd them out. Iteware of sly tricks and "Sound Money" sophistries. TWO VERSIONS OF IT. If the rule of the late manifesto be objectionable, men will resist it, and no man needs to remain with the church when Its rules do not suit him. When he leaves the church, it is presumed pre-sumed that he has no longer a voice in the dictation of Its affairs, any more than has any other non-member. Enquirer. How are the foregoing lines to be looked at In a free and American State? Mortuonlsm, ns generally and formerly explained, gives every member mem-ber a free right to voice his sentiments. senti-ments. The idea contained in the above If expressed in Russia would cause tbe serfs to blush for the Czar's despotism. The above answer to the Euquirsr Is from the pen of I). P. Felt, editor of the Springvllle Independent. Mr. Felt is a Latter Day Saint and a Republican, Re-publican, and so Is the editor ot the Provo Enquirer. Yet there Is quite a difference in the way they view matters. mat-ters. The Enquirer says In effect that no one has a right to think for hl-uself and be a Latter Day Saint. The Independent claims that he can be an Amerlcau as well as a Mormon. Mor-mon. Editor Felt Is right and his position will meet the hearty endorsement endorse-ment of ninety per cent of the Mormon Mor-mon people. The Enquirer says in substance one may resist an objectionable rule or practice but he needn't think of remaining re-maining In the church if he does so; then when he leaves the church he has no right to say an j thing about its rules. In other words be can't oppose them without leaving the church and then of course he cannot. Whoever heard of such an Iron-clad proposition in a "land of the free and home of the brave" so-called? The missionaries who go out Into the world will do more good In preaching Felt's version of Mormon-ism Mormon-ism thad that promulgated by the Enquirer. Logan Journal. We thank Brother Warren for his encouraging appreciation of our opinions opin-ions of this matter, and while The Independent Is non-partisan to a de-free de-free that Its editor can be called a Republican, he is aud always has been a Democrat. Tae most disgraceful mal-admlnl-tration of Justice that has appeared on the court dockets of Utah has Just been entered by the verdict In the Morris bribery case. The grand Jury had Just grounds when It brought In Indictments against Morris and his coterie of rogues, every one of whom are guilty, and should have Wen found so and made to 'do a term" in the penitentiary. Everyone knows they are guilty, and it Is hoped they are Indelibly branded they ought to lie jo plainly that social, pdttlrl. corumwrciiil and ecc'einsrlcal ostra cism would be their late, and more marked than iud they paid for their rascality by bein convicted. It is hard to understand just what position the editor of the S inuvilie Independent takes in reg.ird to the manifesto. Wc thought be was for-ninst for-ninst it by perusins; former issues ot his paper, and be now reads us into a heated place for so intimating and says he has a ticket the other way.

There are very few people even in New York who know that one woman Who moves prominently among them in society is a chief of six nations of Indians. Indi-ans. This woman is Mrs. Harriet Maxwell Max-well Converse, daughter of Thoinai Maxwell, of Elmira. She is prominent in art circles, a shining light among literary lit-erary people and an active club woman. In 1804 Mrs. Maxwell's father, for tome act of bravery, waa admitted into the Deer clan of the Senecas, and later his daughter was invited to uttend the death council held in Buffalo at the reinterment re-interment of the remains of Bed Jacket and five chiefs of the Iroquois. Thia BAKBIXT MAXWbXL OOKTEB8. ceremony was under the auspices of the Buffalo Historical society. In token of the Indian friendship for her she wai immediately thereafter adopted into the family of the chief Tho-no-se-wa, a descendant of Red Jacket. "From the time I was adopted until the present day," said Mrs. Converse to a reporter recently, 1-I have zealonsly watched over their rights and interests, and w hen summoucd not long ago to appear before them at their government council house in Allegheny, as a reward, re-ward, I was taken into the Sene:a nation na-tion and given the name of Ya-ie-wa-noh, 'Our Watcher.' I was then assigned as-signed to a rightful place in the councils coun-cils of the Seneca Indians. The Seneca, Sene-ca, you know, are subject to the authority of the Onondagaa, because the Onondaga have been the law makers' of the Iroquois from the traditional tradi-tional beginning of the league. Lately I was called before the Onondaga at their reservation near Syracuse and there received the distinguished title ot honorary member of the six nations." I Tho apartment that Mrs Converse calls her "den" in her handsome New York house is a most interesting museum. muse-um. The walla are covered with Indian Indi-an relies and the cases are filled with all kinds of curios. Of the two hundred brooches owned by her, one is a badge of the secret medicine society and is the only one of its kind now in existence. It contains sixteen symbols, all known to the members of this society; is hammered ham-mered out of the native silver, and snp posed to be very ancient On one end of her desk hangs a tobacco pouch and knife scabbard that once belonged to Eed Jacket They are made of buck-kin buck-kin and sewed with deerskin sinew.
