how its industrious people are taxed for
the support of the poor, the sick. the de-

fiscal year of 1882 the State expended
50, 800, 1876 for the relief Of these people.
These expenses do not include the vast

Survey has been making geodetic surveys
through Utah, Colorado, Nevada and Cal

servations is located at JEFF Davis Peak,
in Nevada, about due southwest Of Salt
Lake, 225 miles. The officers making
that peak their headquarters during parts
of lS7I-'72, discovered a glacier there,
which, in all its features, is reported as
perfect and interesting as any such Won

day this glacier will be easily reached by
the Salt Lake and Western Railroad,
which is almost sure to be extended in
that direction on its way to the Pacific.

ONE of our industrial exchanges in
discussing the iron trade says that,
"whatever the length of time the new
tariff shall last the time is coming, and
not so many years distant, when the
question Of protective duty, so far IS
iron and steel are concerned, will settle
itself The world is fast growing into
the use Of these metals, and their
adoption to new purposes Is constantly
going on. The iron supply Of Great
Britain, now so excessive beyond its
needs, will not, cannot expand with the
coming demand, and America will be
forced to export iron just as Great
Britain now does. Until this time
comes, however, it will do no harm to
have q tariff, with conditions absolute
and not easy Of evasion, that will give
our industries the fullest opportunities
for growth and substantial expansion,
that when the proper moment arrives
they may be found ready, with armor
on that shall stand the heaviest blows
of the worlds competition.

itself and horrifying it's home readers
by the publication of the statistics Of
murder in the several large cities of the
Union. For the time between Septem-

that there were 55 homicides in New
York, 25 in Philadelphia, IL ia Brook
lyn, 25 In Chicago, 10 in Boston, Is in
Baltimore, 20 In Cincinnati and 81 in
San Francisco. The percentage of muir
der to population, therefore, was one t.

In Boston, one TO ., 400 in Chicago, one
to q ,9S2 in New York, one TO p $40 in
Baltimore. one to 1875 in Cincinnati,
and one TO 8, 100 in San Francisco. The
danger of sudden death from homicidal
violence Is, therefore, less in Brooklyn
than in any other of the cities named.

ONE POINT THAT PUBLIC sENrI.
MENr CAN SETTLE.

We have on hand o considerable
bundle of communications discussing
the amendment muddle."
Nearly all Of these articles possess
merit, and some of them forcibly pre-
sent one side or the other Of this vexed
question.
But we discover that nearly all the
later articles we receive travel over the
same ground that has heretofore been
presented. The articles were written,
doubtless, before the authors had read
previous communications in the REGIS
TER on this subject. They present no
new point or authority.
1t would, therefore, be ofno manifest
advantage TO the public for us to use
valuable space in repeating arguments
already made, only in different lan-
gusge, on one side or the other Of this
controversy. The REGISTER has de-
sired to accord the fullest discussion Of
the question, and will still open its col
umns to all wo may desire to discuss 1t
from a standpoint not already fully pre-
scented.
There have been some very able
arguments made on both sides of the
controversy, and they have served to
show nothing more oonelusiyely than
that the best legal opinion of the State
is so divided that public sentiment can
not settle it. Public sentiment will de-
mand two general elections in 1884.
Two elections will certainly be held in
q more or less general and formal man
ner and more or less confusion will GER
tsinly follow.
1t seems to Us, therefore, that the
proper thing for Us to do now, is to dis
cuss the hest way out of the muddle.
We have reached point where it is
ascertained that We cannot agree as to
the proper legal construction to be
put upon the amendment, but all
sides will agree that this very disagree
ment makes an agreement necessary as
to the best mode of settling the disagree
ment. AL men can unite upon COM
mon platform or programme for avoid
ing the threatened confusion that may
result. And this We should do. We
would be glad to have suggestions on
this ! ONT. We would be glad to take
the sense of the State Press on this
point, and with the aid of the Press We
may discover that there is at least one
point in the controversy-and that the
most impOrtant-that public sentiment
can settle,
