EUGENE FIELD gives Joaquin Miller a
"roasting" in the Chicago Neics, which if
deserved and the dispatches seem to con-
firm the story, ought to forever damn the
timation OF the public which has 50 long
sustained him in good repute and worldly
comfort. The father who, with plenty at
command, leaves daughter to battle in
penury ought to be ridden on rail. Men
have been lynched on less provocation.

time her people should of right have
been under State government, where
opportunity for development OF
thought and character would have been
many times increased. You can't ex-
pect a young man TO advance very
rapidly III the knowledge of languages
literature, and the arts and sciences
if he is kept forever in the primary
schools. Neither can you expect a
community to possess much knowledge
of the great political questions of the
day if they are kept in Territorial vas
salage where these questions are seldom
discussed, for the reason that practi-
cally, the people cannot affect the is :
sues either one way or the other. 1t
will be found that whatever lack there
may be of character in the young men

sued by the general government to-
wards Utah is largely responsible for It.

To-MoRRow's EARTHQUAKE.

The earthquake which the Canadian
weather prophet Virgins predicted last
week is to occur at 2 pm. tomorrow,
though whether the time for the per
Torrance to begin is standard or solar,
is not stated, The force of the coming
quake is to be far greater than that of
August 31st, and 1.-The destruction to
property will be something terrible az
Jacksonville, Fla, Macon and Atlanta,
Ga" while other places will also
be visited. the shock extending a1ong
the coast and as far aerth as
San Francisco. Virgins, upon being
asked as to the cause OF the prospective
trouble, said ait was produced by the
shifting of the esrth's centre of gravity e.,
and this displacement would be brought
about by the conjunction of Jupiter, S.
turn, Mars au our two satellites, one
being the visible and the other the in
visible moon" What a humbug that
Glow Virgins is and always has beenl
1t is a wonder that his predictions are
any longer noted. and particularly sur
prising that they should be telegraphed
all over the continent. Prof. R. A.
Proctor, in this issue of TIE HERALD,
correctly diagnoses the Canadian fraud,
but it will amount to nothing. The fel.
low will go on with his predictions, not
withstanding the fact that they inVGri-
ably fail of performance, and some silly,
credulOus people will be interested in
them, saying perhaps there is soHe-
thing in them"

pose and seek by force to suppress it 1"
THE HERALD took no such position.
That was not the point We made. We
denied and still denyi the right of the
general government to interfere with
this polygamy question, on the ground
that it is purely a local matter, to BE-
dealt with by the people of Utah. We
said: "But who is TO judge as to
whether certain practices are hurtful to
society or not2 Unquestionsbly that
power resides IN the community affected
by the acts in question.
The people OF Utah throw up the shield
of our American theory of government
before them and say, we are an organ
lied community, with legislative powers
extending to all rightful subjects of leg
islatiOn, and we are capable as com
munity of judging for ourselves what is
harmful to our society and what is not.
And we earnestly protest against the
conscience of one community being
made the criterion by which 10 Judge
another. A community in the district
of Columbia has no right to say what
shall and " hat shall noG be tolerated III
Utah" Having misstated our position
as will be seen from the above, the Tri-
bUne proceeds to strike at prominent
Mormons, by referring to some unfor
tunate occurrences that have befallen
the members of their families; and re
peats its stereotyped sentences about
slavery, the degradation of women, un-
questioning obedience, ETC., and finally
concludes by saying, THE HERALD's
premises are not sound" Let the Tri-
6tsne look again at the premises of THE
HERALD, state them to its readers, and
then prove them unsound. The posi-
ton we have taken ga this matter of
polygamy and who have right to deal
with it is impregnable, and we defy the
Tribune and all others of its opinions to
gainsay it.

THE NAVY.

A government official has been in
specting the war ships of the United
States, and he sums up his observa-
tons in the statement that the United
States is the lowest on the list of ma
tons in the matter of war vessels and
guns. His report, synopsis of which
appears elsewhere in this issue of THE
HERALD, is intended to be decidedly
alarming in tone, but it is doubted that
it will have that effect. If this repub
lie has the weakest navy of any power,
1t has the least use of any for war ships
| and great guns. If we had the finest
navy in the world. what could we do
with it? Simply nothing. The vessels
would have to lie at the yards and
rot, or be kept in commission at
great and useless expense for sailing
| them. People who are eternalIy com
plaining about the inefhciency of our
navy. and who are perpetuaIly trying
to get up a scare. persistently close
their eyes to the fact that it is improba-
BILE that the United States will have oc-
casion for employing a formidable
navy. 1t is doubtful if any action or
question could arise that would make
1t necessary for this nation to carry on
a war ct sea away from home, and it is
ridiculous to suppose that any other
power is coming over here to fight the
United States. 1t would be a really
good thing if the United States wer,
without chips save such few as might
be necessary IN the revenue service
and if there were q prohibition against
building or buying any others, the dan
ger TO the country would in no sense be
increased by the abolition of a navy,
while the millions which are annually
paid for keeping up the useless estab-
llshment would be saved to the bur
bened Taxpayers.

Silk Weaving.

Let anyone who has a love for the
beautiful, step down one and a hall
blocks west from The HERALD office,
across the street, and peep into the
brick building standing there he will
see something there that will please
him, In the shape of silk-weaving. A
portion of the building has been fitted
up with loom, reels, etc. But the gen.
tIeman says he has not been able to get
sufficient Utah cocoons to keep him
employed, so now he is working on
material imported from Italy. The
loom is mystery of mechanism and
genius, and the web is lovely. What
lady would not be proud of dress of
such, beautiful Powered silk2 A city
where there are so many mulberry trees
growingl ought to be able to keep one
silk weaver at work. And what is there
TO hinder any onej who has mulberry
trees from getting silk dress for his
wife or daughter. xxx.

Our DISPATCHES inform US that the
peace of Europe is threatened by the
positi n taken by the English and Aus
TRAN cabinets against Russia and Tur-
key is to add to her army 10000 horse
men to be equipped and drilled like the
Russian CossackS. Such an addition
will be formidable one, as the Coss-
scks are the flower of the Russian
cavalry, and there is no question but
what the Turkish troops will equal the
daring of the Russians, and be quite as
formidable when drilled and equipped
in the same manner.
