NEGATIONs.

The times are full of events, the ac-
tual workings of which are practically
the reverse of what their names imply.
We have, for instance, protection which
does not protect, motor which moves
nothing, and Liberal party whose
principles and actions are as grossly IL
liberal as anything under the sun not
actually arrayed against law as 1t
stands, can be. We cannot find within
the somewhat spacious expanse OF our
soul the disposition to criticise that
member of the alleged Liberal conven-
ton at Ogden who wanted to change
the name of the organization; and if a
title indicative of the aims and ends OF
"the boys" had been suggested as the
new designationTHE HERALD would have
applauded and fguratiyely decorated
him with the grand eros of the legion OF
honor. He was like many physicians
we have heard of-he knew there was
something wrong, but what remedy
to apply he didn't know, and
in his struggling blindness he suggested
American" as the proper thing. Of
course the convention refused to change
front, since nothing could be gained
thereby, one name being as much a
misnomer as the other; the delegates
had sense enough to perceive that, since
they were sailing under false colors any
way, they might as well keep the ones
they have been using for several years
as to adopt new ones and continue the
old policy; in other words, there could
be no substantial results accruing in a
change of position from the frying-pan
to the fire, and no numerical difference
in multiplying six by six and dividing
the product by half dozen.
The Liberal party Gas such) is not
liberal in either its methods or its ten
denotes; neither is it American. AS a
political term the former means breadth
of view; catholic principles; being I'M
trammeled by creeds, bigotry or error.
whereas the views of the so-called Lib
erals are narrowed to the single point OF
opposition to church. 1t is not Ca
thoGc because of the same reason; and
it is always and ever moving in the ruts
previously formed by religious
creeds, is bigeted, and therefore is in
error from first to last. 1t is not Amer
lean because the genius of American in
situations inculcates tolerance, impartial
application of the laws, and unrestricted
welcome to strangers from every shore
the organization referred to is utterly
intolerant; it wants the laws applied
where and when they press with undue
severity against the MormOns, and is
even willing to change or even set them
aside to convict member of that church
charged with an offense; and the well
C ome it offers to newcomers is some such
remark as that America is becoming a
dumping ground for the pauper refuse
Of Europe.
No, the designation Liberal" is
gross misapplication of that term; but
il is as appropriate as thA other would
be. Proceeding from indiscretiOn to in
discretion may be described as the art
Of perpetuating folly; so let the old
name alone, even if it is in bad COM
pany.

THESE POOR people are not being
driven from Tennessee because they
wish to worship God in a particular
way" Thus declares the Salt Lake or
gan of the Tennessee assassins. Ourunes-
teemed contemporary is as usual inten-
tionally wrong, lying wilfully and ma
liciously; at the same time it is unin-
tentionaIly right. The poor Aormons
are driven from Tennessee because they
do not wish to worship God in a partic-
uLar way, that way being the one fol-
lowed by the murders and assassins who
are melted, encouraged and applauded
BY the Tribute. If they were disposed
to worship God in halfway, they would
not be driven from Tennessee, and
would be american gentlemen" in the
estimation of the assassin organ.

A DEMOCRATIC VICTORY.

And still the Republican majority in
Ohio is being reduced. The night of
the election there were bonfires and
banging, hurrahs and huzzas,
cheering and growing by the grand old
party over a majority that would GER
tainly not be less than 10000 and bid
fair to run up to 10000. The next day
the figures were reduced to 1900,
though the Republicans claimed they
were somewhat larger, and yesterday
they admitted that the plurality was
not more than 1922. By the time the
returns are all in the majority will not
go over 10000 From all of which it
will be seen that the Republican man
ayers and the Associated Press
are true to themselves and their
records. There has probably never been
an election since there were a Republican
Barty.and an Associated Press when the
latter did not at first announce the vote
OF the former larger than it actually
was, and that of the Democratic party
smaller. 1t is the invarlable rule with
the Associated Press, and it is a rule
which has done as much as anything
else to disprove the claim of the associa-
ton that it is an impartial recorder of
events.
But how will the Republicans now
regard the Ohio @;Eictory?" They pro-
fessed an ability to roll up majority
of 25, 600 or SO, 900, while the Democrats
announced themselves as happy and
content if they reached within |
1900 votes of the number polled |
by the opposition. The Republicans
made the greatest effort of their lives,
spending vast sums of money, keeping
their best orators in the State, and en-
DIoyine all tho +-;e1-s lrIIe---.4 10 tlIv why /

STOPPING to the humiliating if not dis
graceful proceeding of trotting their
standard bearer all over the State, as

regarding as humiliating defeat.

If RUDeER CLAwsoN is actually a
polygamist, and if he is opposed to
serving the term in the penitentiary pre-
seribed by the law for thus offending as
he is claimed to have done, he should
congratulate himself upon the fortunate
that his trial is being
conducted as it is. Not every defendant
is so Happy in his prosecution that
reversal of verdict of guilty is assured
before the jury by whom he is to be
tried has been empaneled.

W. regret to see that a bill for United
States gold currency, introduced by DR. j.
Mott Smith. and recommended by ma
iority OF the Committee on Currency. con
templates a limit Of SO instead of SIS, for
silver coin. and that the Minister of Fl
nance is required by its provisions TO in
truduce at the rate of not over S150.O00 a
month, only United States gold enough to
redeem the French and Mexican dollars.
estimated at S5O0.OO0. We are confident
that these two points, viz: the high limit for
silver payments and the small amount of
gold to start on, viii be radical defects
which will only make matters worse than
at present.
Every one knows precisely how much
gold is required TO pay the Government
certificates. viz: SS50000 some time since,
and 10y the time the loan takes effect it is
likely TO be much more. Every one will
see TO il that he will not be the last TO pre-
sent his silver certificates and get them
cashed in gold, if he knows that there Is
not enough gold on hand to pay all the
certificates.
There are other objections which we have
to the proposed bill. the least Of which Is,
that il allows silver coin on deposit TO be
taken out Of the country before the gold
which is to replace it is actually in the
Treasury. To be sure Hawaiian Govern
ment bonds are to be deposited in the
meanwhile as security by the person who
undertakes to get the gold We believe
this to be unwise and unnecessary. We
have no doubt that there are men residing
in Honolulu, who could easily, on their own
security, negotiate with the bank Of Cal
ifornia to bring SS5O,O0O gold here within
a month, and not TO touch dollar of the
silver deposits WHtR the gold is actually hare

the still more sweeping power which 1t is

potism Of hereditary governors is bad
