Documentary Evidence That It Wm
Deserved—Gen. Torres' Mls«ion. '
To- the Editor of the Globe: ■;-"
: Mr.'. Joseph Wheelock, who Is, I believe, j
an editorial writer on the Pioneer Press, I
seems. to have worked himself up to a i
high degree of _ Republican indignation':
because I had the temerity to express an 1
"opinion"^ not Lin accordance with his
own ultra views,' in reply to an Inquiry
from Mr. ; Edwin D. Mead, of the New
England Magazine.
And as a fitting prelude he calls into
question my promotion, my relations with
Gen. Otis and such other personalities as
he | thinks calculated to discredit "-" the
value of. my opinion. .> -. _
j Had this promotion been of my seeking
I would doubtless have endeavored to se
cure the indorsement of-so high a mili
tary authority as Mr. Wheelock, whose
services as a warrior during the conflict
of 1861-5 still form a salacious memory In
the minds of the older citizens of this
state. 7;-' •..- • ' ; r,rr*'*- "• i-- -'-;;;
But my first intimation concerning it
was contained in the following letter for
warded me by Gen. Mac Arthur with the
information from a personal source that
the promotion had been made:
"Manila. P. 1., Sept. 4. 1898.—Adjutant
General U. S. Army, Washington, D. C.:
Referring to recent promotions, brigadier
commander now desires to change former
recommendations In case of Reeve, Thir
teenth Minnesota, from brigadier gener
al by brevet to brigadier general volun
teers, and makes strong appeal. Letter
by mail. Reeve an excellent officer and
performing valuable service. —"Otis,

, Some weeks later I received the follow
ing: • • "• •■ zZ-ZZZ-Zizyrzy
"Brown's Hotel, London W., Nov. 12,

. . He was very much gratified at seeing
your services before Manila appreciated
and rewarded. Please permit me in my
modest way to add also my good wishes.
Tour very truly, — -"_. H. Strother,
"Alde-de-Camp.'-'
• From which it appears that some of
the high officials in Manila about that
time, without consulting Mr. Wheelock,
deemed me entitled to the promotion I
received. As for the statement that Gen.
Otis couldn't find anything for me to do
"suitable to the rank to which he (I) had
been exalted," it is simply on a par with
the personal flings and carping criticism
which form the major portion of the
stock in trade of a dyspeptic iconoclast
who is verging on his dotage.
I was made chief of police by command
of Gen. Mac Arthur Aug. 20, under ap
proval of Gen. Merritt, by the following
order: .. ■- ; ■

reasonably satisfactory, for Sept. 24 Gen

POWER OF THE TRUSTS."
A Correspondent Suggests a Mean*
Zyy-cZ ' °*- Breaking It.
To the Editor of the Globe:
To break the power of the trusts the
tariff rates should be reduced so far as
to make foreign competition possible
against their inordinate profits. Any law
which tries to hinder those combines fix
ing prices can be circumvented. They can
rule the market as well ; from Canada as
from New Jersey. A probable deficit in
Import duties should be met by a progres
sive income taxi To make such a tax le
gal the right of the supreme court to
pass judgment, on laws on .which ; the
three legislative factors agree should be
canceled and supplanted by a national
vote In case-of the final disagreement of
those factors. V.'.;:
The chances for a Democratic victory
are good, providing the Democrats issue
a platform which unites.the whole oppo
sition against - McKinley's Imperialism
strictly on the right of the people's rule.
That victory Is not achieved by the claim
that those who ; left the party have. to
confess their error before they J will be
admitted again. That proceeding .is too
novel and too dictatorial to bring the in
dependent. Democratic vote into line, be
cause those are no office hunters. Here
Is the fact that Mr. Cleveland got twice
elected against the vote of the other
parties, and Bryan got defeated though
Populists and Silver Republicans helped
to nominate and tried to elect him. Which
proves that those who entered the com
bine did not make up for the loss of the
Democrats at the last presidential elec
tion. This aversion against . the financial
scheme embodied in the Chicago platform
was confirmed at the last congressional
election. .It is all the same if
those voters think ■ that this scheme has
nothing to do with Democratic principles.
if they consider It to-be only a kind of
. sham bimetallism, if • they consider it to
be against the national . welfare to buy
the world's silver production above Its
market value - and . store it up for the
benefit of the mine owners, or if they are
foreign-born voters who fought - too long
under the gold standard as • Democrats,
radicals or socialists against the oppres
sion ' of their . bimetallistlc ■ aristocratic
landlords to "change their opinions. The
aversion exists, and ; no. Bryanite dinner
parties will eradicate it.-- ,: -"•'■. ■; '.-'''■ ..;. •
• Roll that apple of discord, the unlimited
coinage of sliver, into those congressional
districts where it will help to increase the
Democrats' power in congress", and leave)

The Government of Sweden to De
Ashed to Forbid Mormon Mission
aries From Proselyting In Swe
den—Protest Against the Seating;
of Congressman-Elect Roberts, of
Utah, In the House.
Rev. P. E. Aslev, Lutheran missionary
at Salt Lake City and editor, of a mission
ary paper there, -entitled the Star of
Zion, was the cause of a little flurry of
excitement at yesterday afternoon's ses
sion of the Augustana Swedish synod. In
his work as missionary Mr. Aslev has
been investigating Mormonism as it is,
and the result of these Investigations he
writes up in a lurid style, peculiarly his
own, and with a nice attention to detail
that has ' shocked the susceptibilities of
many of his Lutheran readers.
■ Mr. Aslev has had his admirers, as well
' as his enemies, and the two factions have
rather made things hum in Morman land.
Former Synodlcal President Rev. Dr. P.
J. - Sward, went out to Utah during the
' past year for the purpose of investigat
ing the trouble, and In his report he com
pletely exonerated the Utah missionary
from the charges preferred against him.
All, however, were not satisfied, and yes
terday the matter was brought up again.-
It was decided, after some, discussion, to
leave the matter in the' hands of the new'
mission board: . ' .- .. - . ,

The greater part of- the synod's,
sionary work Is 7carried on by: the -cant er-,

250,000 loyal and patriotic citizens of this
country, and believing in the efficacy of
public decency and fidelity to the tenets
of our Christian- progress and civiliza

unanimously protest against the seating
.of the well known polygamlst and con

and that this protest be published in the

have for a longer or shorter time stayed
at the home, and 1,065 have received free

Father Sjoblom, made a motion that the
Dr. Hasselquist endowment fund be abol
ished and the assets thereof be trans
ferred to the general treasury ,of the
synod. Everybody wanted to speak and
almost everybody did before the matter
was finally disposed of.
HASSELQUIST FUND.
The Hasselquist fund is named in honor
of the late Dr. T. N. Hasselquist, unques
tionably the greatest figure in the Swed
ish Lutheran church In America. The in
tention is to raise $25,000. or as much mora
as is possible, to endow a chair of Augus
tana college as a permanent memorial to
the patriarch, whose popularity was
something wonderful.
Rev. J. Magny. the manager of the
fund, reported that It now contained
$1,346.49. Then -it was that Father SJo- *
blom made his sensational motion. Prof.
Q. W. Foss moved that the synod direct
the churches to take an annual collection
for this .fund, and In order to make the '
order more explicit. Dr. Swensen moved
that the special Hasselquist collection be ''
taken In February. Both motions pre
