From salisbury.

Mr., Editor:-Thinking you
would like to hear from us, l will
say few words Crops very ind1f-
ferent, had a nice rain last night,
health good, we had a fine picnic
last Friday at Hopewell this coun-
ty Sunday School and temperance.
Two good things together, HoPewelI
is a country place, they have a
good school taught by Rev. Mr.
Leath, and temperance alliance
all in good condition. I was highly
pleased with the Sunday School
exhibition, the exercises speak we'll
for both teacher and pupils. The
inpro vement in this section struck
me with great force. find those
two institutions in many places in
our county sadly neglected Nothing
eIevates the morals of community
like Sunday Sch Ools and temperance
societies, they are the main pillows
of our government. Last Sunday
at Canaan Church I organized a
temperance alliance with Mr.. Hizer,
President, t. q. Sexton, vice Presi-
dent, Miss Emma Jones, Sec'y, Mrs.
Polly Rainier, Treasurer, and Miss
Doyle solicitor for the Issue, with
quite a number of members. When
such men as Ussery, Sexton, Ray.
and Rains gets INTO a Temperance
alliance you may rest assured that
no man in our gooI county would
dare raise his voice in opposition.
Money and corn scarce, candidates,
and big meetings PLENTIFUL.

Greeting:

/
Whereas the forty-fourth General

PAVE MAIN STREET.

The condition of Main street is such that
to cross it on foot is almost an impossible
task. Ii it were paved itwould be impos-
sible for 1t to get into its present con-
dition. No amount of gravel upon it can
ever prevent it becoming as it is to-day.
To pave the street would be an expen-
sive affair, but in the end it would be the
cheapest. TIE streets OF the city are of
such width, and they are SO numerous
and the city SO scattered over such an ex-
tent of ground, that it is impossible to
pave the entire city, but one or two of
the leading business streets might very
easily be paved. Let the City Council
begin with Main street, for it is the most
important street in the city. II flag
ging is too expensive, then pave the
street with cobbles, and if they could
be dressed on one side they would make
very good pavement and one that
would last for many years. The benefit
this would be to the street would not be
confined to the street alone, but would be
otioAou III Wy CNCiy VIII HAS OC-
casion to come up town for the purpose
of trade, and all the citizens do come up
to Main street for that purpose. No team
ever goes down this street for pleasure,
and it is in no sense drive. The present
method OF dealing with the street is un-
satisfactory in every respect. During the
winter and wet months the street is a
very sea OF mud, while in summer it is a
dust heap if not continually sprnkled.
We believe that every citizen in the town
desires to see Main street paved or
macadamized, and one of the first duties
OF the City Council to be elected on Mon
day next should be to turn their atten-
ton to this matter. The only municipal
ticket thus far nominated, and the one
which will in all probability be elected,
has upon it the names of couple
OF leading merchants, and these
gentlemen we'll know and fully appreciate
the condition of Main street, and when
they become city fathers they should in
sist that the vile condition OF the street
should be improved. All their brother
merchants will stand by them in any
such efforts and il they will make a per-
sistent effort to improve Main street they
will certainly succeed.

THE GOVERNOR AND THE LEGIs
LATURE.

The Governor and the Legislature do
not work harmoniously together in all
respects, and this is but natural. For
some little time past there has been
general inquiry whether or not the
Council would confirm the Governors
nomination for Territorial Superin-
tendent of Public Schools, Auditor of
Public Accounts and Territorial Treas
urer. The impression seems 10 be gain
ing ground that the nominations will be
confirmed, but there is nothing definitely
known. 1t may be doubted whether
there is single member of the Council
who now denies the right OF the Governor
to make these nominations, but some, we
understand, object to some of the NOM
inees. The objection is generally thought
to be personal and is in no
way based upon unfitness. Per-
sonal dislikes are always power
ful reasons in the conduct of all
business, but they are not always good
reasons. In small communities political
dislikes are very apt to become personal
dislikes, and this is particularly SO where
political feeling runs SO high as in Utah.
II such dislikes alone influence the Coun-
Gil in the matter of confirming the Gov
ernor's nominations, the Council should
throw them aside and confirm the NOM
nations. Associations in public life
are entirely different from associations
Salt Lake evening Democrat. [volume] (Salt Lake City, Utah) 1885-1887, 1886-02-05

in private life, although men are
liable to exact the same qualifi-
cations in men appointed to public
positions that they expect to find
in private life. In selecting associates in
private life, the matter OF personal likes
and dislikes must necessarily enter into
the matter Of choice. But how often men
who are bitterly opposed politically are
warm personal friends, while men who
are politically associated together very
often personally dislike each other. Gov
ernor Murray does not ask the Council to
receive into their social circle his intimate
friends, and the Council do not ask him
to accept their intimate friends as his
associates. The Governor and the Coun-
Gil may be politically opposed, in fact, we
understand they are, but they have inter
dependent duties to perform and under
the very instrument which gives them
their authority. That instrument says
the Governor shall appoint certain Terri
torial officials by and with the advice and
consent Of the Council. The Governor has
nominated certain men to these offices and
has sent his nominations to the Council for
their approval The question now is,
will the Council give their approval ?
II they do not it is more than probable
that when the Legislature adjourns the
Governor will re-appoint the same men
to the offices to which they are now nom-
mated, and they will bring suit to obtain
possession OF the offices. That the courts
will put them in possession OF the offices
there can be no doubt. So long as the
Legislature is in session and the Council
takes no action in regard to the nomina.
tons, of couse the Governors nominees
will have to wait, but the time they will
have to wait will not be very long, as
there are only about five weeks more dur
ing which the present session of the
Legislature will last. If the Governors
nominees can get possession of the
offices to which they have beer
nominated through the courts, ant
of this there is very little if any
doubt, and such being the case, is il
not far better for the Council II
confirm the nominations? If one
has to surrender point, graceful sur
render gains almost as much as is lost
The Council will have to surrender Oh
this matter of appointments sooner o
later, and the sooner they do it the bette
it will be for all parties. The Legislator,
of Utah is not popular body with tn,
nation, for the nation looks upon them a
being obstructionists to the enforcement
Of the laws OF Congress, and any un
reasoning opposition on their part to th
lawful exercise of the powers vested il
the Governor of the Territory by the Or
ganic Act is particularly fraught with evi
to them at the present time. A sense o
the true policy to be pursued at tn
present time should cause the Council t.
confirm the Governors nominations. W.
trust it will be done that vexed ques
ton may be settled and the Territor.
gain peace upon one point.
