THE ASYLUM.

The visit OF the Governor and Legisla-
ture and Federal and Territorial officials
to the Insane Asylum at Provo yesterday
was pleasant affair in every way, but
the greatest satisfaction to those who
visited the Asylum was to see the care
and kindness bestowed upon those in the
Asylum. The Asylum is credit to the
Territory, and the public funds have
never been appropriated to a better use
than in erecting this institution. The
saddest sight in life is to see people who
are bereft Of their reason, and the State
has no higher duty than the one it owes
to such people. Those people Of
the Territory who have lost their
reason can find here home where they
will receive the best of treatment in every
respect. If the present Asylum has any
fault it is the fault of not having suffi-
cient number Of wards for the various
classes of insanity. AT present there are
but two wards, and these are for the
males and females, but no attempt is
made to separate those who are suffering
from acute mania from those who are suf-
fering from melancholia and the milder
types OF insanity. This is a necessity be-
cause the south wing Of the Asylum alone
is completed. DR.. Pike and his able
assistant, DIR. Hardy, have utilized the
building to the best advantage,
and too much praise cannot be
given them and their assistants for
the almost perfect discipline they have
established among the patients, and the
great merit OF this discipline is that it has
been brought about by treating the pa
tients with mildness and gentleness. The
docility of Sherman is an example of
this. For twenty years he was raving
maniac in this city, and was treated as
one whom it was unsafe to trust out of
irons. Through the methods employed
at the Asylum Sherman is become very
quiet and he has the same freedom that
the other patients have. We have heard
some criticise the Asylum, saying that it
was too expensive an institution for the
Territory to build. 1t is not so. The
money which was appropriated for the
Asylum has been well and wisely ex-
pended, and in cause that must enlist
the sympathy of every man who bears
within him human heart. There are
some things still wanting to complete the
Asylum, but it is safe to presume that
the Legislature will give full considera-
ton to these things, and as the members
OF the Legislature thoroughly inspected
every part of the building it is unneces-
sary to indicate the things needed
Salt Lake evening Democrat. [volume] (Salt Lake City, Utah) 1885-1887, 1886-01-30
LOOK AT IT ANOTHER WAY.

Governor Murray has vetoed the Bail
bill, as all know. The Tribune character
lied the bill as q shame and disgrace.
That is mere nonsense. We disagree
with the Governor as to the policy Of the
bill, and regret that he did not approve
it. In the heat Of the contest here in
Utah we are all very apt to overlook the
general policy of law, which is to deal
with matters on general principles which
are calculated to serve under all circum-
stances. Governor Murray thought it
was not wise to deprive the courts Of
the discretion they have in the matter
Of allowing bail after conviction.
Let us look at the question from the gen.
eral principle point Of view. Supposing
the Judges Of the District Courts were
Mormons, would there he the same solici-
tude to preserve the same discretion in
them in regard to allowing bail that there
is now? Here is test, and one which
puts this matter Of discretion in its true
light. True liberty always depends upon
law and never upon individuals. That
this is true, none will contest.
Take as another illustration Of
this doctrine the Jury bill, which
is now under consideration in the Legis-
lature. What the attitude Of Governor
Murray is towards this bill is not known,
but great many have given expression
to their views on the bill. These views
are to the effect that it is designed to
facilitate an evading of the Edmunds
law by polygamists. Let that be granted
still that bill does not make
it possible for man to sii
on jnry in polygamy case
when through bias or conviction he
is disqualified. 1t is said there is no need
for such measure for obtaining jurors
because open venire is better way. Let
us look at this way, and test it from the
general principle point Of view. If the
United States Marshal were Mormon
would an open Uentv be the
best way of obtaining jury
in polygamy cases? Supposing the
Marshalship should ever be filed by 6
man open to bribery, would the open
uenire be looked upon as such superior
way of obtaining jury? We think not
and all important political and legal ques
tions must be dealt with according to
general principles.

THE FIGHT.

The Republican Senators have for
long time been endeavoring to get up
fight with the President over his appoint
ments. At last they seem to have got
it. They have been seeking this fight
merely for the purpose OF making politi-
cal capital out of it, and for no other pur-
pose. So far rs civil-service reform is
concerned they do not care single par
ticle. The Senate has the confirming
power, it is true, but they have not the
power of dictators, and it is that which
they are claiming. The fight bids fair
to become contest between coordinate
powers OF the Government, and whatever
may be the right of the Senate to demand
various documents from the different De-
partments, the Senate can never coerce
the President. If he shall forbid the
heads of the differently Departments to let
any papers out of their possession, how
can the Senate force the heads OF these
Departments to comply with their
demands? The spresent contest may be
long and bitter and in this contest it is
the duty OF every Democrat to stand by
his party colors. The Republicans were
in power SO long, and they used this power
30 insolently, that they have come to
think they own the American Govern
ment and that every one who does not
thumb up or thumb down when their
Simon says so is guilty of treason. 1t is
high time they were taught differently.
The Republican party has been the party
OF high ideas and moral ground, and
while they have yenerated the Constitu-
ton, still their veneration has been very
lukewarm but solely for the reason
that the Constitution fell SO
far short OF their high standard
of excellence. Now the Republican
Senators are donning their pure white
vestures, and as they are seen from afar
they look like the vestal virgins Of ancient
Rome. They have been looking for a
pretext here and a pretext there upon
which to make issue with the President,
and they have sought this pretext
for the sake OF breaking down the Presi-
dents work of reform, for they plainly
see that every reform he introduces
is condemnation OF the methods and
doings OF their party, and well they know
that success of the Presidents reforms
means the success of the party which
elected him. The President may have
made some bad appointments and may
have suspended some good officers, but
for these things themselves the Republi-
cans do not care. In presence of the
fight which the Republican Senators are
about to make upon the President, it is
well for the Democratic party to sink all
minor differences and to stand solidly for

THE LEGISLATURE.
The Council.


JANUARY 80, 10 a. NC. F. No. l3,
providing for Territorial Board OF Equal
ization, came up as the special order.
Section provides for members of the
Board giving bonds, Except the Secretary
OF the Territory and the Territorial
Auditor of Public Accounts,) which Mr..
Taylor moved to strike out, but the mo-
ton was lost.
Section 10 provides for paying each
member of the Board Except the Terri
torial Auditor of Public Accounts) "a per
day.
Mr.. Taylor moved to strike this out.
Messrs. Sharp and Barton opposed
striking out, because that officer receives
a good salary.
Mr.. Francis was in favor of the motion,
as the Auditor ought to be paid for his
services.
Mr.. Taylor said that the Assembly had
a petition before it from the Auditor ask
ing an appropriation to pay clerk hire.
He had little faith in appropriations until
they had passed both branches OF the
Legislature and been signed by the Gov
ernor.. We have passed good laws and
then the Governor has refused to sign the
bills.
Mr.. Hammond opposed creating new
fees for public officers; that such crea-
tions made it so that we did not know
exactly what we were paying our public
officers, and he was in favor OF a stated
salary for them, and not contingent sal
aries.
Mr.. Sharp said this was a new duty to
be placed on the Auditor, and he was in
favor of that officer having a fixed salary
and no perquisites in such duties as wer
proposed to impose upon him.
Mr. Francis said that this was an en-
tirely new duty they were imposing on
the AUDITOR duty that did not pertain
to his office.
The exception was stricken out and the
bill passed, with one no-Mr. Taylor.
Mr.. Barton moved that when the Coun-
Gil adjourned it be till Monday, February
list, at 2 p. m. Carried.
Mr.. Hammond, from the Committee
on enrolment, reported that G. F. No. 7,
amending sections and 5, chapter 40,
Laws Of 1884, and G. F. No. is, prescrib-
ing the punishment for a misdemeanor,
engrossed and forwarded to the Governor.
At 10 80 a. m. the Council adjourned
till Monday, February LIST, at 2 p. m.
