nificance will be attached to it, both
here and abroad. Atanother time little
would have been thought of the
matter. but now it will be charged
against the Mormons as being intended
as an insult to the government, and as
open disloyalty, whereas we are con-
fdent nothing of the kind was intended,
and that no sentiment of disloyalty is
entertained by the Mormon people.
They have proven their loyalty and
devotion to the country SO uniformaly
throughout their entire career, that it is
ridiculous to charge that what could only
have been intended as an expression of
their, sorrow over outraged Liberty. was
deliberately planned as showing want
of respect and reverence for flag which
they adore and institutions which are
dear to them

THE TRIMMER.

John sherman is trimming again. In
California the other day he told the PEG.
pie that he would never again vote
against a Chinese exclusion act, his visit
to the Pacific coast having convinced
him that the Chinese were "bad men. )"
Sherman imagines that he sese some
thing ahead that he may be able to turn
to advantage, and he takes time by the
forelock and gets himself into position
to make the most of his political oppor-
tunities. Senator Sherman s sojourn on
the coast has given him no more abso-
lutte knowledge concerning the Chinese
than he enjoyed before. but if
he had learned all about them he
would not have learned that they are
worse than or even SO bad as the rab-
BILE that denounces them, but which
rabble Mr.. Sherman dares not turn
against. He did not learn that under
our laws, our institutions and our
theories we were justified in building
wall to keep out the Chinese, while ad
uniting and welcoming the loafers, agi
tators and rabble of other countries.
The Chinese cannot vote, hence Sena-
tor Sherman can afford to turn against
them, because in so doing he pleases
some people who can vote. The dema-
gogue is really more dangerous per-
son in America than the Chinaman,
with all of the latter's vice and indus
try and economy and honesty.

EXPERIMENTAL LEGISLATION

The Massachusetts, Legislature has
been experimenting with penalties for
drunkenness for the past few years
trying light, medium and heavy punish
ments for the offense. all the time
having an idea to the cure of the
offenders. Previous to 1880 the law was
that a common drunk could be fined
notexceeding S. and costs, the imprison-
ment for the non-pay ment of
the fine being thirty days; in
the year named. the fine was reduced
to 81, and the imprisonment to ten
days. The new law was found TO be
failure before the first year expired.
and in 1881 the statute was so changed
that the person convicted might
be required to pay the costs of con-
viction IN addition to the fine. Now the
Legislature has again amended the act
restoring the original penalty of fine and
imprisonment fer non-payment. and, in
addition, providing that If male per-
son be convicted for drunkenness three
times within year, he may be sent to
the State reformatory for term eff two
years, though he may be released on
ticket-of-leave when he is thought to be
reformed. The person released, how
ever, may be returned to the reforma
tory upon his failure to keep sober.

WHILE THE Republican organs ar,
bowling about the appointment to offic,
of "unrepentant traitors" and "rebe
brlgadlers," the new administration
goes along initiating and enforcing re.
forms, much to the displeasure of the
old-tlme corruptionists. 1t is said that
the new rules and regulations put into
operation at the port of New York
alone will result in the collection of be.
tween $2O,0OO,OOO and $4,000, 900 more
revenue, which in the past has been
stolen by system of fraudulent under

takes and much of its hardness in
changing officials if it will go on making
these reforms.

MRS. LOCKWOOD.

Tue HERALD suggests that it will be
worth the while of the people to go to
the Theatre tomorrow evening and see
Mrs. Belva A. Lockwood and hear what
she has to say. Politically, we believe
that Mrs. Lockwood is struggling with
forlorn hope if she expects ever to
see herself or any other woman elected
to the Presidency of the Nation. The
righhulness or wrongfulness of the
position of the suffragists is matter
that the people will not consider, any
more than they will discuss the wisdom
or propriety of admitting women to the
privileges of the ballot box and office
holding, hence it seems waste of effort
10 try to bring those who are masters
OF the situation to the suffragists, .wav
of thinking. But outside of politics
Ms. Lockwood is one of the able women
OF the day. She is deep thinker and
enjoys broad and clever mind that has
been improved by association with the
intellectual people of the nation. and
by much observation. Her lecture will
be both entertaining and instructive,
and cannot fail to give enjoyment to
her hearers.
In connection with her coming visit,
1t may be mentioned that Mrs. Lock
wood has ever been warm and con-
sIstent friend of the people of Utah, and
has not been afraid to let her voice be
heard in defense of the rights of an op.
pressed community.

Soon after this he announced his in
tention of going to London. Three
days afterward he returned, but not

Elfrida was considerably astonished

How to Make Strawberry Shortcake.

Sift together half pound of flour, a
tablespoonful each of salt and of su-
gar, and two teaspoonfuls of baking
powder. Work into this mixture a
quarter of pound of cold washed but
ter; add gradually two gills of cold
boiled milk; mix quickly with knife;
dredge flour over the molding board
and turn the paste upon it. toss with
knife until it is fioured, pat it gently
with Toured rolling-pin and roll it
down 10 half an inch thickness; put a
plate on top of the paste and cut
round it, grease a bakiug-tin, put the
rounds upon it and bake. When done
make an incision round the center OF
the edge and tear them apart. If not
too thick they need not be divided.
Wash the berries to remove grit; ar
range a layer OF them on one-half of
the cake, dredge with fine sugar and
place the other half on the berries;
cover the top with large berries and
add d liberal quantity OF fine sugar and
serve. A mixture of whipped white of
egg and sugar is added to the top lay
er and it is placed in the oven a mo-
ment to set. but too much heat will
spoil the berries.
A novelty in shortcakes is made of
black and white Hamburg grapes.
Large California or Malaga grapes
may be used, if the seeds are not OBJ
jected to. In our opinion grape seeds
are a constant source OF trouble and
cause many of the ills attributed to
other sources. the Cook.

what Nexl?"

A sailor returning from long cruise
brought with him a young parrot,
which he bestowed upon his half-witted
son, and then undertook the task of
their joint education. Having his own
ideas OF teaching and teaching made
easy" and sea-voyagcs having been
chief factors in broadening his views of
life, he proceeded TO institute a course
of travel which should combine pleas
ure with knowledge. From place to
place they went, seeing sights and
shows, among which none were more
in favor than the common play-houSes,
or places of cheap theatrical entertain
ment, found everywhere. The old tar,
in imagination, here revisited the
haunts of his sailor life, the boy Tom
my" gazed with open-mouthed won
der, and Poll chuckled with delight.
Lappetst Uient en- ndagedNt. but in
stead of growing also critical aud dis

satiate, and one scene was scarcely off
the boards before he cried, What's
next?" And Polly came in with an in
variable echo of whats nex'?"
The old man tried in an Intellectual
but probably conscientious way to in

the parrot cried, Whats nex'?'
In the course of time they reached
San Francisco. and found themselves
one day in the Chinese quarter. and
.'at the front" in one of its celebrated
play-houses. Hours of delightful in
struction and rapid acquisition follow
ed, and the fathers fondest ambitions
seemed in fair way of being realized,
when his school was suddenly broken
up by the unforeseen event of prema-
ture explosion of gigantic firework.
After flames and smoke were subdued,
and the police in possession. it was dis
covered that the unfortunate sailor and
his son were victims of the disaster, a
flying missile having knocked them off
their seats, and in some way caused
their death. ''Broke their necks," re-
marked by-stander. As the veteran
charger answers to the well-known bu-
gle note, SO forth from the debris came
feeble but distinctly piped "Ifhat'S
