Show f oety-eight years since the first permanent settlement was effected in Utah. It waB a email beginning, but note what a magnificent state has been built np here by the energy, pluck and intelligence of these people. Surely the favor of the Allwise has been vouchsafed to them in many ways and by many indisputable evidences. Utah today leacie the new west and is the most populous as well as prosperous prosper-ous commonwealth between Missouri and California. That she will maintain main-tain the lead under her new relations to the general government there can not be a doubt. She has the eame blood in her yeins now that she had forty-eight years ago. The Star claims that Col. Trumbo forced the recognition of the silver men at the Cleveland convention. 2S'ow a wanion upon the sort of recognition recog-nition the eilver men received there, say we. That is the sort of recognition recog-nition that the hangman gives the culprit on the scaffold. Col. Trumbo had better begin soon to weed, or sort j out his friende, if he is really in earn est in his race for the eenate. Bv all the gods on High Olympup, here's the Ogden Press joining ihe clean method brigade, of which the Tribune is leader and the Standard and Enquirer ara privates. .Now what else is there to be prayed forV The cjtene is filled up and the reDublican party is to haye a washing, if it can stand the racket which we'doubt. Mr. Hore made one damaging admission ad-mission on Monday, and that is, that everything, even gold, had fallen in price since 1873. Now it is the proy- i - ; . ince of statesmanship to appreciate att values. This admission of the gold champion ought to give the fight to Harvey without further effort. The Utah Patriot, the new Park City paper,is on our table and is doubly welcome because ot its handsome typography typo-graphy and editorial excellence. It is independent in politics and proposes to be of service to all mankind without with-out regard to political bias. Ben Rich says the Indians at Jackson's Jack-son's Hole have not been fairly treated. Quite likely. But does anybody recall re-call an instance where they have been so treated since the first settlement of the American continent? We do not. The republican pa person olably the Salt Lake Star, are quietly poking fun ak the ".Square Deal" articles lately appearing in the Tribune. They cannot can-not get up to the level of the Tribune in the way of square dealing, it seerne. The machine republicans of Salt Lake are getting after the Tribune savagely. The independence and -evi dent preferenceof that paper for clean methods must be very distressing to the machine. "The Tribune in Politics" is tbe caption-line of the Standard's blow-oft at the Tribune. It sails into the old hulk with an evident sense of enjoyment enjoy-ment which bodes no rest for the great Tribune. The Tribune writes very philosophically philosophi-cally of the bicycle in the future. Better Bet-ter confine itn energies to the Crane-Trumbo Crane-Trumbo nastinees. There is meat in thiB and only bloomers and gasoline motors in the other. Now the St. Louis is being driven across the Atlantic at her highest speed. It is to determine if high speed will work with comfort and enormous capacity. Lord, Lordl how we do enjoy the clean method racket now being in dulged in by the papers of the republican republi-can party in Utah. So Charley Crane is to resign and the Tribune scores one in the battle. Now if it beats Trumbo for the senate it can call two. On the 21st seventeen Bannock Indians In-dians were killed by whitemen. The war is on, it wouM seem, from this, Chabley Crane will never be goy-ernor, goy-ernor, if he has really resigned the chairmanship. The Fillmore Progrees doesn't like the express agent at Juab, even a little bit. |
