States, which tribunal rendered a
final ruling sffirmipg all that had
been done in this connection by the
Territorial courts. So the money
thus uDjustly and illegally taken
from the Coop. treasury returns to
1t after being deprived of the use OF
the funds for 50 long time.
1t is all proper enough for an
officer TO be jealous and persistent
in the discharge of his du' les, but it
often occurs, as in this instance,
that in seeking to make repu' alton
for himself, he is actually De-
priving private citizens of a
portion of their earnings and
possessions, and, viewed in this
light, the whole business is little
less than direct outrage. Perhaps
the Collector was honest in his in
tentions, and in this view of the
case must be forgiven; but he has
committed a great blohder, and
these cannot so easily be overlo ked,
especially when they are go expen~
sive as in the case discussed.

UTAH RELIEVED.

Utah brea hes fIeer. S INNER
Howard, ex-United States District
Attorney for this Territory, has for
come months been threatening a
second descent upon Utah. AS our
readers are aware, he was al appli-
cant for the Chief Ju ticeship, and
at one time had the place almost
within his grasp. The prompt ac>
ton of the local bar and press in
presenting a united and honest pro-
test against the appointment for
tunately saved the country from
the infection of the corrRptionist in
it's most important Office. On Tues.
day President Arthur nominated
Howard to be Chief Justice of Ari.
IONA. While Utah rejoices over her
narrow escape, she feels sympathy
for her unfortunate neig hbor in the
south. In the past the Arizona
judiciary has not been above sus-
picion, more than one of its federal
judges having gone out under
cloud, and il we are not mistaken
the cloud overwhelmed one or two.
It seems there is to be no improve.
ment in the matter Of the morals OF
the bench in that Territory, for
Howard's appointment indicates
continuance Of the old order of
things. What is the occasion OF the
special spite against Arizona enter
tanned by Republican administra-
tions is moi known, but that such
spite exists must be quite plain to
all who have watched the federal
appointments to the bench OF the
dependency.
Towards nomination Is simply
shameful and outrageous. It shows
that Arthur is either the tool OF
politicians, or is reckless to say the
least in comforting places upon men,
When Howard applied for the Utah
lief Justiceship and was being
ulged for the Office it was brought
to the Presidents knowledge that
the bar and community quite gene
rally regarded the man as corrupt.
It was this united protest which
detained Mr.. Arthur from sending
him here. If Howard il not fit to
sit on the bench In Utah, he ought
not to find place in the judiciary
anywhere. II he is an object OF sus-
pieion and distrust here, can he
look for anything better elsewhere?
The President having the facts be-
fore him, has hesded the protest OF
Utah, but has put terrible inaic~
tion upon our sister Territory.
The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1884-03-20

On TUEsDAY President Arthur
devoted more attention to the Ter.
ritories, nominating q Chief Justice
for Arizona and Associate Justices
for Idaho and Wyoming. And
still he steers clear of Utah, letting
our federal officials alone In their
glory-or suspense. Having pretty
we'll filed the Offices in the other
Territories We may look for the next
dash to be made towards Utah,
whose Governor and Chief Justice
are doing good deal Of wondering
rs to what will be the outcome Of
this long walt.

FRED. DOUGLASS, TROUBLES.

If this thing continues sympathy
will take the place Of contempt for
Fred. Douglass. When Fred. mar
ried a red-hesded white woman, he
not only put his colored housekeep-
er's nose out Of joint to such a de.
gree that che brought suit against
him for many years. service, bat
also disguised people of his race gen,
orally. One colored editor, it will
be remembered. removed the por.
trait of Douglass from his parlor to
stable, and boosted of the change.
But the seYerest blow comes now.
Fred. has always been q pet of the
sufragists, and at their conventions
was conspicuous figure, never fall
ing to occupy place on the platform
and usually delivering an address.
At the late convention in Washlpgs
ton the old man was completely ig>
norant, not even being invited to
attend the sessions, and 1t is asserted
that Susan B. Anthony went 30 far
in her effort to snub him, that she
passed him several times without
deniging to speak. It wouldn'Hh
been DO bad IF she had
hit him in the eye. or called him a
'tmeany, nasty thing" but to forget
all about him was cruel. What
makes matters worse is the fact that
Douglass wife is q prominent and
active woman sufragist. When it
comes to. this, that . suffrage con-
vention manipulated by Susan B. D
will not recognize him Douglass has
sunk low indeed, and is to be pitied.

issued by that institu ton, it's circu-
lasion and its consequent liability

MURRAY AND THE WEST DISCOURSE.

It is said with authority that Gov
ernor Murray took with him lib
e1al supply Of last Sunday'a issue Of
the Tribune, with the view to the
judicious distribution and circula-
ton of the mythical Bishop Vests
discourse. Since Governor Murray
came to Utah he has been guilty of
q good many mean and contemplate
tricks, and Of actions unworthy an
honorable and faithful o&cial; but
this is the most disreputable. Before
he left the Governor knew that the
alleged sermon was a pure invention
on the part Of the Tribune or one
of its hirelinga, and that the
whole thing was an unadulterated
lie, born in wickedness and pub
Iished for an infamous purpose. For
him to take advantage Of the scoun-
drelly invention to bolster up his
own dropping cause and injure the
people OF Utah is 80 unworthy a
man and an official, that we can
with difficulty believe Governor
Murray capable OF it. 1t is hoped
for the sake of the reputation of the
gentleman that he will halt before
he acts upon his evil intention, and
will not add this to the many IN
worthy deeds recorded to his dis
credit in the past four years.
