HAS CHANGED ITS TONE. Two months ago the Salt Lake ' Herald-Republican read this paper out of tho Republican party when it detected in the editorial columns a pronounced insurgent sentiment. The Herald-Republican then said the Insurgents were not Republicans, they were Democrats, Demo-crats, and it refused to treat them as other than rank outriders. Since then several things have occurred to cause the Herald to grow weak-kneed, wobbling and extremely uncertain of its footing, until today that paper is as vacillating as the populus tremula which wavers with every breath of air. Instead of reading Insurgents out of the party, the Salt Lake quaken asp is resenting the idea that Insurgents In-surgents are other than Republicans with strong party attachment and affiliation, and it says: - The New York situation is beginning to grow interesting. interest-ing. The turning down of Roosevelt by the Republican stato committee has apparently started a "ruction." It is a party fight, however. Whatever the result, it will not redound to the advantage of the Democrats. There have always been differences of opinion among the New York Republicans, but they usually vote right on election day. Thi3 year will be no exception to the rule. Now it is a party fight ; two months back it was a case of ejectment eject-ment in which Insurgents were to be expelled as Democrats! What an irreconcilable difference in the utterances of this badly confused and oonf ounded organ of distress !
