Show TRUT H 2 Republican column next fall. With this condition staring them in the face, the leaders of the east and south ' will quickly cut out the rainbow-chasin- g that has been going on in the Rocky Mountains and line up again as they did under Tilden and Cleveland. The next Democratic candidate for the presidency will be from the state of New York. Present indications are that he will be Judge Alton B. Parker, Chief Justice of the New York Court of Appeals, the only Democrat elected to office in the Empire state in the last ten years. President McKinley carried New York in 1896 with a majority of 268,000; Judge Parker carried the state the following year by 67,000 majority. That gives a He measure of the mans popularity. is the candidate of David Bennett Hill, and the southern leaders are flocking to his standard. Judging from all the indications open to a close observer of national politics it is safe to make this prediction: The next Democratic standard bearer will be from the state of New York and there will be neither Bryanism, Socialism nor Populism in the next National Democratic platform. This course may lead to defeat for a time, but it is the only road to future victories. ft ft Sutherland is very seriously considering becoming a candidate before the next legislature for the United States senate is certain. Mr. Sutherland is receiving considerOf the nine able encouragement. holdover state senators, 6 of whom are Republicans, he has 4 absolutely pledged to him. They are Allison, Shearman, Lawrence and Love. This is quite a good start and with fair luck in the elections he would have quite a respectable following. It is improbable that the Republicans, if they carry the state at all, will have as large a majority in the next legislature as they had in the last, and it is probable that it will require nearly every Republican vote to elect. The struggle may therefore be decidedly interesting. That Congressman openly declare that they will klet the Democrats carry the state next November, just to teach our leaders some moiety of common political wisdom. These men declare that there has been absolutely nothing in the history of our party in Utah since the election of 1900 that is calculated to stimulate the rank and file of the party to future zeal in its behalf. The fellows whose vest buttons are rubbing against the federal and state pie counters will tell you, of course, that these are halcyon days for the rs always talk that way party. while their feast lasts. But if you will place your ear down to the grass roots you will hear the mutterings of a storm that is as certainly coming as is the Ides of November; and unless something shall be done, quickly and thoroughly, that storm will swamp our political bark. ft ft g Judge Theodosius Botkin, a Republican, was heard to say the other day: The only hope of the Republican party in this state is the d d foolishness of the Democrats. If they follow their usual custom they will act the fool and make it impossible for people to train with them. The people of Utah will not stand for a policy that villifies the American army. If the Democrats will hoist the flag of patriotism and be true Americans they would carry this state very easily.

He has been asked to by a number of friends and has declared himself. Mr. Meeks is a popular young man, secretary of the Republican city committee and chairman of the First committee.
