BLAND'S BILL.

What are you going to do with your
silver bill?' a correspondent asked of Mr.
Bland of Missouri, the father of the propo-
stion for free coinage.
g Let it rest for awhile now," he said
" We got a very encouraging vote on it,
We will let it rest for awhile, and may do
better next time"
IF you would add a clause putting q
dollars worth of silver into the dollar, you
could pass it, couldn't your"
Yes, l suppose so. But that would be
just increasing the obligations of the debtor
class 20 per cent, and l don't think we
would be justified in doing that. We will
let the matter rest awhile, and let Congress
hear from the people. They will be heard
from"
Congress is hearing from the people.
1t has heard from the most powerful
labor organization in the world, and the
industrial classes generally are evinc-
ing an amount of earnestness which
cannot fail to force recognition.
They propose to increase rather
than diminish the currency volume
and they do not propose to pay their in
debtedness in dollars, costing one-fifth
more than those upon which their obliga-
tions were based That is the popular
sentiment, and the one which is bound
to prevail, for it is based upon sense,
reason and justice.

lF the payment OF the Legislators from
the treasures OF the different counties is
such n meritorous action, in accordance
with the law, and in every respect SO
justifiable and praiseworthy, why did not
the Church papers, which are now de-
Tending it in column editorials, mention
the matter as an item of news before pub
lie attention was called to it in the col
umns of the DEMOCRAT? The thing was
kept as quiet as possible, until this
paper dropped on the racket and exposed
the entire business. Ii not dark tran
sacton, it is quite certain that the Nor
mon officials excluded it from the light OF
day as long as possible, and the Mormon
press only commenced defending it when
its longer concealment was ont of the
question.

ODD FELLOWSHIP IN AMERICA.

Sixty-seven years ago this day, through
the earnest efforts OF Thomas Wildey and
four devoted co-laborers, the founding OF
the now great Independent Order of Odd
Fellows was commenced in America by
the organization of u lodge in Baltimore,
Maryland. From this modest beginning,
made in the midst Of much ignorant OPP
position and the existence of great preju-
dice against the establishment of secret
societies, the Order has grown and in
creased in numbers until it has become
an institution known and recognized for
good throughout the whole civilized
world, with jurisdiction to-day over 5000
subordinate organizations, and Il mem
bership OF over half million. During
the sixty-seven years OF its exist
ence upwards OF $l2O,O0O,OOO have been
paid into the subordinate treasures and
over S45,0O0,000 expended for sick and
distressed brethren and their families.
Over 100000 members have been re-
leved, over $4,000 widowed families
assisted, and 100000 members buried by
their brothers.
These figures speak eloquently OF the
beneficent character of the organization
with which 80 many OF the men OF our
country are identified. AS an institution,
it seeks not only TO relieve the pressing
wants Of financially distressed members
and their families, to bury the dead and
to educate the orphan, but to improve
the character OF the man, to elevate him
in the scale OF society, to imbue him with
a proper conception OF his capabilities
for good, to enlighten his mind, and 10
enlarge the sphere of his affections; and
no man can become an Odd Fellow in
spirit and in truth who is not grateful to
his Creator, faithful to his country aud
fraternal to his fellow-man.
In Utah, the membership rolls of the
lodges show a numerical strength Of 500,
and in this city this evening, at their
magnifcently appointed hall, the breth-
rem will in becoming manner celebrate
the founding OF the institution which all
are SO proud of being identified with.

GOOSE AND GANDER SAUCE.

The DEMOCRAT dispatches few days
ago gave the Committee vote on the Nor
row. Chinese Restriction bill. Chairman
Belmont was the only Democrat who
voted against n favorable report, while
all OF the Republicans on the committee
voted with him. The Republican papers
of California are very loud in their de-
nunciations of the Democratic Chairman,
but have not word to say in condemna-
ton of the Republican members, or of
praise for the Democrats who sustained
the bill. 1t is pretty certain that the
Committee vote is fair foreshadowing
OF the relative positions OF the two parties
upon the bill when it comes up in the
House. Perhaps ten per cent. OF the
Democrats will oppose it with their votes,
while the Republican support, outside OF
the Pacific Coast members, will amount
practically to nothing. Perhaps, however,
the Republican papers OF California are
consistent in their abuse OF Mr.. Belmont
because, being Il Democrat, something
better might have been expected OF him,
while nothing but opposition could have
been anticipated from the members of
the other party, 1t is virtual admis-
sion that the Democrats of the country
are in accord with the popular sentiment
in California upon the issue, while the
Republicans are the reverse The Win

to the matter, says:

JACK" MORMONS.

The DEMOCRAT has often been asked
by correspondents and others the origin
of the nomenclatural combination Jack
Mormon" The word "Jack" has been
for centuries used in derisive sense to
signify half way fellow OF any kind. AS
for instance, Jack-of-all-trades is one
who is dabber at everything. but pro-
ficent at nothing. Its first application
to religious denomination, that we
know OF, is in Macauley's History Of
England, where Gilbert Burnet, Bishop
OF Salisbury, is called by Tory speaker
in Parliament Jack Presbyterian. Mr..
Burnet was an Episcopalian Bishop and
member OF Parliament He was, how
ever, very liberal in his views concerning
the rights OF other denominations, and
especially the Presbyterians, who were
at that time somewhat prosecuted
by the parliamentary representa-
tives OF the dominant Church.
The term was applied to him during the
discussion of motion to remove him
from the position OF Preceptor to the
heir apparent in 1899. The phrase is
probably OF earlier origin even than that,
for Shakespeare uses it in somewhat sim
liar connections in number OF instances
in his works. Its local application doubt
less originated in the general significance
OF the word. A Jack Mormon in Utah is
one who, without being member of the
Mormon Church, is disposed to wink at
its abuses and to curry favor with the
members by halfway siding with them
in their unlawful acts. In other words,
he embodies all of the meanness, without
any OF the sincerity of the full-blooded
Mormon

SEIZED IN CANADIAN WATERS

Our dispatches to-day announce that
an American vessel has been seized off
Cape Breton for breach OF the fishery
laws, having been overhauled in q
Canadian Lake "less than six miles wide,
and therefore at every point within the
three-mile limit" This announcement
recalls the old quarrel between the her
ring, mackerel and cod catchers of the
two countries. In Canada it is claimed
that American fishermen make their big
gest haus in the coves, bays and inlets
on the provincial coasts, and on this
theory, which is held to be no longer
tenable, the United States Govern
ment has more than once been
worsted in diplomatic arrange
ments with the Dominion and
England, On the part Of the American
fishermen, it is held that Canadian fish,
unless caught by Americans, ought not
to be admitted to our ports without pay
ing duty. These are the two main
points Of an international dispute, which,
though often laid at rest for season, has
never been permanently settled.
Since the abrogation by the United
States OF the fishery clause of the treaty
OF Washington, under which Canadian
fish came in free, and American fisher
men could helpthemselyes to these same
fish wherever they found them, the Cana
dian authorities have fallen back on the
treaty Of 1878, by the terms Of which
Americans were prohibited from fishing
within three miles OF the Dominion
shores, and it is under the provisions OF
this ancient treaty, We suppose, that the
seizure above referred 10 was made. 1t
remains to be seen what the United
States Government is going to do about it.

SEPARATE ORGANIZATIONS.

The people of California are nearly as
unanimously in favor OF the restriction Of
Chinese immigration as are the Gentiles
OF Utah for the adjustment of polygamy
and segregation OF Church and State.
There is, however, no talk over there of
obliterating party lines for the purpose of
making more effective fight on the ques-
ton. On the contrary, each party vies
with the other in its opposition to the
evil, and its result is more effectual than
as though the contest was waged under a
single political organization. There is no
reason why the same course should not
be adopted in this Territory. With both
parties fully organized here, and the Nor
mons afliliating with neither, the fact
will be made apparent to the people of
the East that the polygamists have no
political principles outside of their So
called religion, and that no recruits can
be gained from their ranks for either side,
without such concessions as would not be
for moment considered by Republicans
or Democrats here, or in any other part OF
the country.

CAN'T SEE IT.

Speaker Carlisle, to whose influence
Judge West owes his appointment as Cover
nor of Utah, says the new Governor will exc
cute the laws of Utah fairly and without
persecution. The Mormons, he explained,
complained that the laws for the past two
years were executed against them and not
against the Gentiles. 1t really begins to
look from this as if the Mormons had got in
their work on the administration.-Pdrk
CftU Record
We fail to discern any indications in
the above that the "Mormons have got
in their work on the Administration. !"
Certainly, no fair-minded Gentle asks
anything else than that the laws shall be
executed fairly and impartially all
around. If Il Gentle breaks the laws he
should be punished as promptly and
severely as Mormon offender. Because
the Mormons have complained that dis
elimination has been made against them
in the past, and the Administration has
assured them that il such abuses have ex-
listed, they should not be continued, it is
no evidence that the Mormons have "got
in their work." No right-thinking per-
son wants anybody, Mormon or Gentle,
prosecuted, But the rigid enforcement
of the laws is not persecution-it is sim
ply justice. The Administration has
promised to abolish all evils that may
exist. Ifnone OF the character mentioned
exist, there are none to abolish. All that
any loyal person can ask is that the laws
be fairly executed, and an Administra-
ton that would permit more or do less
would be unworthy the confidence of
either Mormon or Gentle.

THE TROUBLE Is OVER.

The demonstration made by the Powers
in behalf Of Turkey has at last resulted
in the promulgation OF an order for the
disarming and retirement from the
frontier OF the Greek forces, and here
after the sleepy Turk will probably be
permitted to take his siesta without fear
of being pounced upon and having his
throat cut by bellicose Grecian soldiers,
who have been flourishing their cheese
knives on the frontier fer several weeks
past and threatening TO annihiate every
thing that smacked of Turkish origin.
This demonstration on the part OF the
Powers is without doubt just what the
bellicose Greek has been looking and
anxiously waiting for during all these
weeks, for now he will be able to claim
that his honor is saved by being forced
to an unwilling peace by united Europe
at the cannon's mouth, but for which he
would have carved the Turk into so much
mincemeat and taken all the territory he
wanted. We take it that is Just what
Greece wanted, because it does not seem
reasonable that, in asingle-handed conflict
with Turkey, the forces Of the former
Government could meet with anything
but disaster and utter defeat. At the
present moment Turkey has about 25O,
900 well-drilled veteran troops near the
Greek frontier, and could increase the
number to 300, 900 in short order. Against
these, Greece can only muster at most
100000 men, badly organized, with gross
ly defective transportation and commits
sariat service, and with frontier defenses
in such dilapidated condition as to be
practically worthless. 1t is a good thing
for Greece that she has accepted the
friendly advice Of France, taken due
notice OF the intention of the Powers, and
peacefully retired with chunk of ice
on her national bump of combativeness.

MIR. sKILLMAN's CONFIRMATION.

The following appears in the Con-
gressional Record OF the 2lst instant con-
cerning the confirmation OF A. Skillman
as Collector OF Internal Revenue for the
District of Nevada, which also includes
the Territory OF Utah:
The Committee on Finance have had un-
der consideration the nomination (No. 1902
of Archibald Skillman, of Nevada, to be
Collector of Internal Revenue for the Dis
trict of Nevada, in place of Frederick @.
Lord, suspended, and, so far as they have
been able to obtain the information, they
find that Mr.. Skillman is a fit and proper
person to discharge the duties of the office,
and that there are no charges or papers on
file rejecting upon the character of Fred
erick @. Lord, suspended as will appear from
the following letter of the Secretary of the
Treasury:
TREASURY DEPARTMENT, March IS, 1886.
SIN: Your communication on behalf of
the Finance Committee of the Senate, dated
March 16, 1886, asking whether or not "there
are any charges on file against the official or
moral character of Frederick q. Lord, late
collector of internal revenue for the district
of Nevada, suspended" is received.
In reply thereto have the honor to state
that, as far as this inquiry relates TO sus-
pension from Office, | feel bound by the
rules laid down in the Presidents recent
message to the Senate upon the general sub
ject of such suspensions. But in order that
/ may surely act within the requirements of
the statute relating TO the furnishing by this
Department of information to the Senate,
beg leave to remind the committee that the
Office referred to has no fixed term attached
TO it, and to further state that the President
is satisfied that Il change in the incumbency
of said Office will result in an improvement
Of the public service, and that the policy of
the present Administration will be better
carried out by such change.
Except as the same may be involved III
these considerations no papers containing
charges rejecting upon the official or moral
character of the suspended officer mentioned
in your communication are in the custody of
this Department.
Respectfully yours,
ID. MANNING, Secretary.

The boycott is relic of barbarism. Its
use in free country is wholly indefensible.
Mormon Herald.
Boycotting, which is preached almost
every Sunday in the Tabernacle, and
practiced every day in the week by nearly
the entire Mormon people, is less indie
fensible than any other method advo-
Gated by the Mormon leaders. We are
rather surprised that the crumb cleaner
should denounce the system generally
while countenancing it locally. Perhaps,
however, from its standpoint it is right,
and that the "relic OF barbarism" is JUS
titiable in Utah, the latter, under Nor
mon rule, not being free country.
