TOO PREVIOUS.

Our esteemed evening contemporary
the Democrat. is saTagely belaboring the
Commission for having appointed Mr..
W. w. Ritter one of the board of can
vassers OF the election returns, Mr.
Ritter being a candidate for the Legis-
lature, and voted for on one of tt e
tickets. Our contemporary is to be
commended for its vim and earnest
ness and all that, and on general prin-
ciples il may be encouraged for "going
for'' the Commission. But we SUCCESS
that it would be quite as well
for our esteemed contemporary,
if in its eagerness to make
points against the Commission
it did not make them against itself
The HERAID's reading of the Law is
this: 1.-THE canvass and return of all
the votes at elections in. said Territory
for members o. the Legislative Assem-
bly, thereof shall also be returned to
sad beard (the Commission), which
shall canvass all such returns and issue
certificates Of election to those persons
who, being eligible for election. shall
appear to have been lawfully elected"
and TIE HERALp's Interpretation of the
law is that Mr.. Ritter and his associate
cahyassers can have nothing whatever
to do with the canvass of the votes for
members of the Legislative Assembly,
the canvass of those votes being the spe-
cial and ncn-transferable work Of the
Commission itself. We can hardly be-
teYe, that ANXIOUS as are the Comm.
sioners to avoid doing anything that
saYors Of labor or effort, they would put

LET THE PRESIDENT KNOW

II Utah shall have an honest, capable
and fair Governor next winter. the
STerritory will be rid of theCommissionr
and the right 10 manage cleo
tons placed where it belongs
in the hands Of the people.
We will also get rid OF five
distinguished gentlemen who, charged
only with the performance of PLAIN
simple duty that used to be satisfac-
torily attended to by county clerks and
justices of the peace, have assumed to
be the rulers of the Territory, perform
ing judicial as well as executive acts.
Not content with doing that with which
they were charged, and having an
abundance of time on their hands,
they have busted themselves at times
debating reports" on the condition Of
things here, and suggesting remedies
for the evils. which they assumed ex-
listed. The HERALD has not much fault
to find with the Commissioners as
gentlemen. and little complaint to make
against their administration of the law
1t is when they step outside OF their
plain and simple duty that we object.
But what earthly use is there for the
continuance of the Commission?
Why should these distinguished
statesmen" be assigned the work
that any two dollar-a-day clerk
can perform Just as efficiently as they?
The Commission is unnecessary and
absolutely useless, and therefore should
be abolished. There is no hope, how
ever, of its abolition while the present
executive remains and exercises his
power to nullify the labors OF the Legis-
lature. The administration should be
made to understand that the doing
away with the useless Commission will
save to the government about $4,000 a
year. and the election laws will be en-
forced more faithfully and more honestly
them at present, and should also be
told that the Governor will never con-
sent to any reasonable law looking to
the doing away with the unnecessary
board. With these facts before him,
perhaps President Cleveland will see his
way clear to the removal of an execu-
tive who thinks the President dares not
accept the political responsibility of dis
placing an official who displays so much
hatred Of the "Mormons

upon others a task which the law spe-
cifcallv declares they themselves must
perform. In view of the facts, the Com
mission is "a be commended rather than
censured for selecting Mr.. Ritter
as one of the canyassers, the gentle
mans character fer integrity being such
as to place him above suspicion Of
wrong doing. There is not man on
the Democratic ticket but would be
willing to entrust the canvass of the
votes to Mr.. Ritter, even though the
the latter were his opponent and the
election was much closer than was that
of Monday. THE HERALD regrets that
its contemporary has been so previous
in this case as to hurt only itself
