Show The Herald of the 14th, with intense in-tense dignity turns and berates "A Country Contemporary," in severe bat grandiloquent fashion. "If it affords the country contemporary any pfoSt, to be all the time pecking at the Herald," but it don't, we assure you. When the leading, or would-be leading democratic demo-cratic paper chooses to ignore a leading lead-ing topic in the way the Herald has silver, the lowly and modest "country contemporary" ventures to remind it of the duty its position imposes upon it, to the end that all democratic influences in-fluences may work together, whether they love each other or nat. We are late in getting the information pa to the Herald's early and late devotion to silver but are exceedingly glad that we have it in words which can scarcely be doubted. Better late than never, is true in this case, if in no other. The Manti Sentinel is both witty and severe on the subject of the church in politics. The charge is often made that tbe Mormon church is head-over-beels in politics. It will soon dawn upon the people that the church ia as honest in politics as it has been with regard to polygamy. It is out of both by the most Bolemn declarations and it would take stronger evidence than any yet offered to convince us that it i8 ; ; - ' - Jf " stooping to the baseness of modern partisan political methods. . " The Crane-Trumbo-Standard-Tri-bune harmony is excrutiatin? just now. Crane and Trumbo hunt in couples, but the Standard and the Tribune are grappMnsr each at the other'e throat, and we wicked and unregenerte democrats dem-ocrats smile at their murderous energy. It is all going just right and the democrat dem-ocrat who would interpose an obstacle to the fiehj, would be recreant to all intents and purposes. The Ogden Press may possess its soul in peace. The Leagues convention at Cleveland will give out no certain and favorable sound in favor of free coinage. That is a foregone conclusion. conclu-sion. The row may proceed. It has already broken out in Utah and several sev-eral others of the western states. The action of the Leagues convention will make it national. That is all. The republican harmony in Utah ineureB the next election for the dem-crats. dem-crats. Harmony is a great institution on a republican basis. BUI Glasmann can tell you all about it. He's tbe author of the ee- timent, and the Tribune Tri-bune is its exemplar. Not Don. Cameron, nor any other single man can get a free silver declaration declara-tion through the Cleveland Leagues convention on the 19th. Don is a good one and has accomplished mucb, but this is far beyond the meaeure of the j man. The republican paperB in Utah are battling against republican machine politics. Wipe out the machine and you destroy republicanism, and with that, Bill McKinley, Mr. Reed and our own Trumbo. FrAxk, candid, outspoken and explicit ex-plicit declarations only are called for in politics these days. If you are fqr silver you can't be for Grover. Even the Herald has discovered this great truth. The Standard is doubtless for Col. Isaac Trumbo for presidential nominee. nom-inee. He has only leased a home in Zion and could therefore remoye to "Washington without much financial loss. Bill Glasman.n is trying hard to say funny things in his paper. The funniest fun-niest attempt yet was when he tried to prove that there are gold bug democrats demo-crats south of Mason & Pixon's line. Wb can't spare Trumbo and Charley Crane. They are invaluable a8 melancholy mel-ancholy examples of what evil there is in abnormally developed ambitions. Woclii the Tribune care to intimate its choice for the republican nomination nomina-tion for president next year. The wild waves are saying that "no gold bug need apply." |
