WHAT WILL THE HARVEST BE?

Governor Murray 3 visits to the
east bsve been more for the pur-
sc Of ''Vindication" than anything
ele, aud his few friends and hack
ers claim that this has beel accom-
pliShed, pom ing with well simu
lated ex1ltiaton to the endorse
ments OF the Governor coming
from Speaker Carlisle and Henry
Watterson, two Of tbs Leading Dem
Ocrsts OF Kentucky, one thorough
statesman,t the other an accomp ishe
journalist, and both presumably
capable OF knowing whereof they
speak; besides, they are politically
Ellis enemies, and therefore, It Is
urged, their god words am 'nnt to
excuIpation. The HERALD would
bs glad 10 sea it in that igh+, hu:
for the fact that i! wo1ld have to
close It's esrs to reason, its eyes 80
facts and its brains to logic, - d. 50
The favorable testimony o. the ger
tlemen referred to and all he rest Of
that description amounts 10 nothing
more than their belief in his good
personal characters when lawyer
has a bad case AMI can fod wits
nesses who a e supposed to know, to
testify to the excellent standing Of
the defendant, they sometimes pro-
duce such testimony for the sake of
the good effect il VIII have on the
jury, and this is the sum and sub.
stance OF The Democratic evi euce
adduced in favor of Murray; in or
der that good impression may be
made upon the public, his mana
gers parade certificates Of good
character..before the eyes Of the peo-
pie, and employ all their ingenuity
to keep back The facts in the case.
Carlisle is not deeply interested in
the Utah question jast now, having
other fish to fry, and simply testify
ing to political opponents honesty
is an apparently graceful thing to
do, and one that may cunt some
thing for him il another direction;
Watterson's soothing words mean
only that by praisIng the Governor
ne is annoying the majority of the
people hereabout. He is so CONF
pletely q victim Of Mormonphobia
that he would give an endorsement
to O'Dono IAN Rosa Or the devil
himself, If by 50 doing he could get
in a little Of his spitsful work
against the Mormons. Hs loves his
Excellency none the more; but on
this especial and exclusive occasion,
il is convenient and profitable ID
both to travel together.
No, the Governor is not indicated;
not for want of earnest efforts, but
because such efforts are in the teeth
Of the facts and against the drift of
reason. There is no Vindication for
him. It is not in the cards. He
must go.

ASSOCIATED PRESS LIES.

On the 9th instant the Salt Lake
Associated Press agent began his
telegram as follows: "The Mormon
Conference closed to-day. Bishop
r. T. Burton was made presiding
bishop of the church in place Of
Hunter, deceased, and B. Preston
was made an apostle instead Of c..
G. Rich, deceased" There are
three statements in the above and
two of them are lies. - The percent-
age OF truth, We admit, is some>
what larger than usual in
the agents dispatcher, but it
is not enough TO make mis-
news Of any value. We presume
it is useless to protest against the
great newsgathering association
keeping an utterly irresponsible
and reckless person in position
which should be filed by one
who is responsible, careful and
above all truthful; the protests of
years hsVe ayailed nothing in
this matter, for the same old lying
reports are daily sent out, and the
Association managers accept and
encourage them, knowing them to
be false and inspired by malice. at
The same time it does no harm to
occasionally call attention to the
falsehoods, just to show how mean
some people can be when they have
lost character and forgotten how it
seems to be honest. A reliable
truthful agent Of the Associate

THE EARTHQUAKE.

The world would he prepared most
any time to hear Of the destruction of
San Francisco by an earthquake, but
would be mute with terror and astOnish-
mcnt if Some fine morning il should be
told that New York had been swallowed
by the Garth. And yet such might be
the fate Of this metropolitan monarch
any time. Scientists tell us that no por
ton of the oarth's surface is exempt
from seismic Influences, and that the
dreaded shock may come at one point
and one timo as well rs at any other.
Tho dispatches say that this is the
first well-deined shock felt at Philadel-
phia since 1917, but ii will doubt
less take long time to lull tho pop
ulaco of the Quaker City into perfect Sc
curity again, 1t looks as if Philadel-
phia, literally trcmbled on the ragged
edge yesterday aud the ruin and death
and Generalization that would have en-
sued had the earthquake been hut
triile stronger, are horrible to contem-
plate even by the imagination.
The memory of the awful fate Of the
little isle and other spots in the Ic-
want not longer than eighteen months
since, is still fresh in the public mind,
a fate that carried Off thousands in few
moments and shocked the world. Other
fearful visitations of this kind will now
be recalled, most notable of all the dos
truction of Lisbon in l75j and the great
catastrophe in Calabra during the latter
part of the last century. BornCu
and Java are also familiar instances. In
the Lisbon earthquake $1,000 people
persisted, while that of Calabra carried
oil 10000. Among other famous shocks
were those Of Naples and Lima and
quito, and dozen others where whole
sale destruction Of life and property oc-
Cured.

De useless 10 address facts and reasons.
We might denounce such an account of
great and patriotic affair as low,
unfair and base SANDER, made from the
whole cloth, but it would have no effect
upon men who go to hundreds of dollars
expense to get up just such campaign
lying.
But in justice to the great and respect
able gathering of brave men who came
together for social purposes only, and
who, long since, honestly and gladly re
newed their allegiance to the General
Government of this country, and are to
day among its best and most patriotic
defenders and supporters, we do not
want so unjust a report of the proceed
ings of the reunion to go abroad without
answer and an emphatic denial.
