UTAH'S RAILROAD POSITION.

Notwithstanding the outlets Utah
possesses by means of railroads she
occupies anything but an envIable
position. 1t is conceded by business
men generally that Utah has for
years paid to the Union Pacific a
vast sum of money annually more
than equity would have allotted the
powerful monopoly, The HERALD
welcomed the prospective compile
ton of the Denver & Rip Grande
to.this city, not because it hoped
for any immediate relief in the
form of reduced rates-though the
completion of the narrow-gauge
made such thing possible, and the
bare possibility was something to
rejoice over-but it would open up
a rich country to population which
should have been and some day will
be more or less tributary to Utah.
To some extent this hope has been

ENGLISH VIEW OF THE MORMONS.

Mr.. James W. Barclay, an Eng
lish member of Parliament, has been
publishing bis impressions of the
Mormons in the Nineteenth Century
and they are highly favorable. He
maintains, moreover, that the hos
tility to the Mormons among Ans
orleans Is in the inverse ratio of
knowledge of them. The further
east he went the greater he found it.
He was deeply moved by the wond-
ers wrought in Utah valley by Nor
mon industry and the beauty and
comfort Of Utah villages
compared to the ordinary
western settlements elsewhere.
He SAYS that "the government of
Utah by Mormons might be &C
copied as .pattern by other
States in the Union;" that Gin no
State or Territory are the taxes so
moderated" that there is no bonded
debt in the Territory except S35, 900
issued to build an irrigating canal;
that the people have built 10000
miles of irrigating canal to make
their soil capable of the abundant
productiveness which now charac-
terizes it; that they are tolerant,
temperate, peaceable and indus
trious;" that although the great
bulk Of the population is Mormon,
in the city prison, in 1881, there we're
twenty>nine convicts, and in
the county prison six con.
victs, but only nine of
them Mofmons. In the penitentiary
there were fifty-One cOnvicts, but
only five of them MormOns, and of
these two were there for polygamy.
Out of 125 prisoners in the lookup,
eleven only were Mormons, and
some of these for polygamy. The
returns Of arrests in Salt Lake City
in the same year showed 100 MCT-
mons against S51 Gentiles or Chris
tians. Polygamy, Mr.. Barclay in
sists, is already rare, and must die
out soon altogether; and he de-
nounces the eastern fury against
the Mormons as ferOcious, and
ignorant and unreasonable, if not
Pharisaical. This may be q rosy
view, but it is worth consideration.
A people who have done what the
Mormons have done are not a
worthless lot with whom it is vain
to reason, and who can only be re-
formed by being knocked on the
head New York Eoeaing Post,

THE DAYS are growing longer. the
red sunsets continue and nature is
moving along in its regular old jog
trot fashion, just as if Governor
Murray and his message had never
been. We are aware that his excel
lency, in his heart, boasts with Glen
dover:
At my nativity,
The front of heaven was full OF fiery
shapes.
OF burning cressets; and. al my birth,
The frams and huge foundation OF the
earth
Shaked like coward.
And so boasting it must be pain
full for him to discover how little he
really amounts to, leaving the ele>
ments of beauty and beef-mear out.

IT WOULD be an highly commend
able act if the Legislature would
provide for the taking of popu]a-
ton and industrial census of the
Territory next year, especially as
government will bear about half the
expense of gathering the informa-
ton. There is a Cong essional law
which provides that If any State or
Territory will, during the months
of June and July, take a complete
GER sus according 10 the schedules
and forms used in taking the United
States census, and will furnish to
government copies of all reports
made, the United States will pay to
the State d sum equal to oneshalf
the amount paid to supervisors and
enumerators in such State in 1880,
increased by one.half the percentage
of increase in population made in the
state between 1870 and 1880. Utah
has made rapid strides in the mat
tiers of industries and increase of
population during the four years
since the government census was
taken, and it would prove not only
useful, but encouraging to know
lust what the per centages of in
crease and development have been.
1t would be an easy matter to ascer-

APPRENTICE ACT.

Now that the Legislature is or
ganiZed and ready for receiving
suggestions there is, among many
other things that should receive its
early and intelligent attention, the
matter OF an apprentice law. THE
HERALD has frequently pointed out
the necessity for a good law on this
subject. The evils arising from the
absence of such an act are daily and
everywhere apparent, not alone in
incompetent workmen, but in the
many young men growing up with
out trades or qualifications for
gaining an honorable livelihood.
People engaged in any of the active
industries and occupations, know
the trouble there is in this matter.
A boy s'binds" himself or is" hound''
by his parents to work a certain
specified period in which he is to
learn the trade; his compensation is
graded and agreed upon for the en-
tire term of three, -four or five years,
and he begins to work and learn. In
a year or two he has acquired some
knowledge Of the trade, and bellev-
ing that practice will do the rest for
him, he breaks the agreement and
sets up as an independent journey
man. He doesn't see the necessity
for working two or three years at low
wages when he may for the time
being get employment at full rates.
He starts out as "botch" or "muff,"
and will never be a competent
workman. ALL through life he
will be handicapped by ignorance.
and the public that hires him upon
his representation that he is car
penter, mason, blacksmith, or other
mechanic, must suffer from his
want of skill. On the other hand
business grows dull and work
scarce, and the employer reduces
expenses by turning his apprentices
adrift, though they may have &C
CURED only slight insight into
the trade. There is no law to pro-
feet employer, apprentice or the
public, it being a matter of honor
whether parents permit their chill
dren to continue until the full term
of apprenticeship has been served,
and whether employees will fulfill
their promises. The consequence
of this lack of law and system is
that the country is full Of botch
journeymen, and of young men who
are without practical knowledge
and training in any trade. We find
these muffs in pretty nearly all the
trade occupations. There is neces-
sity for law by which parents could
take their boys off the streets and
apprentice them for such periods
as are required for the requirement
of practical knowledge of a trade; a |
law which would compel boys to
serve the full term of apprentice
ship, and which would hold en-
ployers to their obligations to keep
apprenticeS for the stimulated |
period. We are confident good |
would Immediately result from al
wisely and carefully drawn law for
regulating this matter; and if such
a statute be not provided we are |
going to continue as we have done
get our competent journeyman
from abroad, while hoodiums and
dependent, helpless men grow up at
home.

Mr.. Samuel L. Dodd, our wor-

schools of this district. The pu-

much pleased with the easy and

would be pleased to have him visit
them often.

the illness of Mr.. Logan, and hope
to see him in his Office again soon.

2 o'clock, deaths 10y hand visited
us again, and has taken from our
midst an old and highly esteemed
citizen, Mr. William Ripple. On

and hearty, to all appearances.
He was a successful teacher for
over twenty-five years. He will
be sadly missed by his many
friends. His remains were depos-
