Mr.. Cardwell: Well, that is wrong.

HE'LL ACCEPT.

1t seems to Us that all this discussion
and all these doubts about the proba-
bility or improbability of General Nc
Clernand's acceptance Of q position
on the Utah Commission are trihlng,
and do not reflect ordinary intelligence.
The General left Washington a few
days ago, after having held several long
conferences with the President, and must
certainly have been consulted in regard
to the Office before his nomination. To
say that Cleveland permitted McCler-
nand to go home with the idea that he
(Mc) was to receive no Office. and then
TO appoint him to q good position, is to
say that the President acts ike a child;
and to say that McCiernand, who
does not conceal the fact that he
has been seeking an Office ever
since the last Presidential election.
will not take one Of the very latest po-
sitions in the gift Of the President, is to
argue that the General is cranky, and
q veritable dolt. The fact doubtless is.
that AcClernaud signifed his willing
ness TO take the place before be was
nominated, hence it is idle to talk about
his non acceptance Of the Office Those
gentlemen who are ambitious for the
Commissionship. either for themselves
or for their friends, had better fan to
and try to get others of the board
removed. than live along on the vain
hope that McClernand is an idiot and

ARBITRATION.

The O'Neill bill which is now on its
way through Congress, having been in
troduced two weeks ago, seems about as
worthless a measure for dealing with
the labor troubles as an intelligent per-
son could devise. Its chief. and prac-
tically its sole provision is one providing
for arbitration IN cases of disputes be-
tween employees and employers. The
government is to pay the expenses OF
the proceedings, and the decree of the
arbItrators is to have the force and effect
judicial order. The principle is a cor
rect one. Arbitration is preferable to
court proceedings. and il employed in
good faith will oftener result in exact
justice to the disputanis. II brings into
play reason and common sense, which
are both wanting frequently in conrts
where stern law only is dealt with. But
Just how arbitration can be compelled
does not appear. Certainly the O'Neill bill
will not compel il. nor viii it enforce
the DEGREES of arbitrators- You cannot
drag a man before a board of arbitra-
to $ and force him to submit his private
grievances for adjustment, nor can you
demand Of an employer that he viii
leave it to dislnterested parties to fix the
rate of wages that be shall pay. and the
hours of service that he shall require OF
his workmen. II the terms should
prove unsatisfactory to the employer.
he would simply refuse to accept them
and by what process could he be made
to comply2 The O'Neill bill therefore
is silly. II tells how men can settle
their disputes, by arbitration, butevery-
body can do that now without Jaw
on the subject. However, If the bill
should il become a law, can do no good.
II can do no harm; and it may lead TO
some intelligent enactment on the sub
ject for the prevention of interruptions
OF trade and commerce and a deal of
trouble in general. Meantime. it seems
to US that as the great majority OF the
labor of the country is what Is called
organized labor" the wOrkingmen
being members Of unions. societies and
associations designed and held together
for the mutual protection and support
OF the individuals of the respective or
ders, it would seem that it would not
be difficult to adopt and enforce the
principle of arbitration 1t could be
agreed between employers and en-
ployees, that disputes that might
occur should be settled by arbitra-
ton, and a failure to accept
the decree of the arbitrators will
absolve the dispuiants from any obliga-
tons to each other, either moral or
legal. Both parties wouId then be left
free to act, as they will be left what
ever laws may be passed, but a way
would be open to a settlement of their
grievances without a resort to violence or
the foolish methods of the striker, and
in nine cases out OF ten when disputants
come together and discuss their griey-
ances before uttering threats or making
demands. they agree near enough to
avoid taking a course that will be
mutually injurious.

TERRITORIAL GOVERNORS.

IL seems that Arizona is not satisfied
with the Governor sent to her by the
present administra ion. The name oi
the Governor is C. Meyer Zulick, and
he halls from Newark, New Jersy. His
term of Office began in February last.
The Arizonians say his method of doing
business may do very well for the far
east, but it is not at all suited to the
wild west. A strong delegation went
from Arizona to Washington TO oppose
his confirmation on the ground that
the administration was pledged to ap-
point the officers of the Territories from
the Inhabitants thereof, and they be-
ieved in the doctrine of home rule for
the Territories anyway.
The general government could
easily solve all the difficulties
arising in the Territories by
admitting them into the Union as
States, which would grant the people
the privilege of managing their own
affairs. But if there is Territory that
would decline the privileges OF State
hood on the plea that she is not able TO
bear the expenses of a State govern
ment, why not both parties recognize
the spirit of our republican institutions
by appointing the Territorial officers
from among the bona fde citizens of
the respective Territories Not until
the people see men of their choice gov
erning them need the United States
look for tranquility in the Territories.
The peculiar situation regarding Utah
affairs makes the course pursued by
President Cleveland in appointing Off
Gals from distant States for Utah some
what commendable. The sentiment
that has been manufactured against
the people OF Utah by sectarian bigotry.
and political adventures, is so strong
that we cannot hope that
he would appoint men to po-
sitions in the Territory who
vsuld be representative fen of the
people; and to appoint men from the
rule or ruin clique here would be down
right cruelty OF which a. Democratic
President viii always be incapable. But
why representative men could not be
appointed to the Federal offices IN Ari-
IONA and the other Territories is diff
cult 70 understand. Utah has one ad-

RELIGIOUS REVEALS.

The noted revivalists. Sam. Jones and
Sam. Small, are in a fair way to become
more widely known 10 fame than Moody
and Sankey. The twain have just con-
cluded what they call their ''wsrk" in
the wicked city of Chicago, and have
left instructions with the local ministers
TO continue the work.
Sam Jones. in has closing sermon, told
his congregation that listening to SEN
sational sermon in a skating rink once
year wouldn't save them. He might
have gone much further in his assertion
in that line and still kept inside the
lines of truth. He could have said that
little permanent good was accomplished
by the whole system of revival work
now in vogue throughout the United
States. These revival meetings are so
conducted as TO arouse an excite
ment in the congregation, under the
Iuh=ence OF which the listeners
are seized with spasmodic desire to
become suddenly pure and virtuous.
Milton makes Lucifer say: Vows made
in pain, ease would recant as violent
and vain" and it generally happens
that promised repentance in q state OF
excitement Is rarely persevered in after
the excitement has passed away and
the convert is brought face 70 face with
his old temptations. The revivals bring
into the churches a mass of unwashed
mud, who by their bscksliding and gen.
eral incontinence bring reproach upon
the churches.
Crime in the United States seems to
be steadily increasing. The Atlanta
Constitution, one Of the leading papers
in the south, published at Atlanta,
Georgia-the State from which Sam
Jones hails-publishes some statistics
that are quite startling in their cbarac-
ter. The Prison Reform Association is
to hold q meeting in Atlanta soon, and
the C0HstitEtiOa produces the following
facts for their consideration:
In 1850 there were 1887 prisoners in
confinement in the United States. The
ratio was then one criminal in every
3.i42 Inhabitants. In 1851 the prisoners
numbered 1905. and the ratio was
one in every ,647. In 1870 the num-
Der had risen 70 50 sol, and the-ratio
was then onein 1,0'I. In 1880 the mum.
Der of criminals reached the total of
SO ,25S. and the ratio was one convict tn
every S56 free men.
This increase of criminals. in propor-
ton to our population, is startling. and
should awaken the churches into n
steady. constant effort to stay the sire, m
