BY the Bursting of an Embankment in
1 Manda1ay,

MANDALAY, Aug. 24.-One of the en-
bankments of the Irrawaddy river burst
here yesterday. The break was 800 yards
in length, and so rapid was the flow Of
water that in few moments the whole
district was flooded from four to twenty
feet deep. The result will be the approach
of famine among the homeless popula-
ton. Fifty thousand persons are to-day
homeless in the city, their houses and pos
sessions having been destroyed or sub
merged. It is estimated that 1000 persons
lost their lives in the flood.

From the Capital.

WASHINGTON, September L. = Mr..
Green, Col. CaseY's assistant in charge
of the Washington monument, has been
making scientific observations of the
structure, or, in technical phrase, "lev-
cling" it, to-day. with view TO noting
any change of position. This procedure
is undertaken on the first day of every
month, but that of to-day has attracted
more than usual attention because OF a
desire 10 know whether the earthquake
affected the structure. The observation
proves that the shaking had not the
slightest effect upon the monument.
Prof. w. J. MCGEE, of the Geological
Survey, leaves tonight for Charleston,
SC, to make a scientific study OF the
effects of the earthquake a. what now
appears to have been the centre Of the
disturbances.

the 9Th instant. Good people who have
anv regard for the welfare and respect
ability of Nevada viii hope that Cas-
sidy's ambition will be gratifed, so far
as getting the nomination is concerned,
because good people who know any
thing of the State are aware that it will
be sn easy matter to beat him at the
polls. Nevada should be Democratic,
but the people over there, rather than
be represented in Congress by such
a man as Cassidy, seem to prefer
that the State be given to
the Republicans. Two years ago
George Washington was a candidate
for re- election, but Republican stepped
in. and polled over 800 majority.
Democrats recognize in Cassidy a
blowhard and blatherskite, who thinks
more about how he can keep himself in
than about the Congressional duties.
THE HERALD is really sincere in the
wish that Cassidy will be nominated
next week. This paper did its share to-
wards bringing about his defeat two
years ago, and it will take pleasure in
helping to elect the opposition candi-
date this year, provided the Democrats
are so thoughtless and so lost 10 self
respect as to nominate Cassidy again.

ONLY HUMAN NATURE.

The dispatches giving account of the
earthquake in Detroit on tuesday night,
said that SIN the Free Press building the
editorial room made stampede for the
street, while in the composing room the
weekly men all stopped work but those
on piece work kept right on" This
may strike some people as peculiar;
they may be unable to understand why
the piece-work men should be less timid
or less observant than the weekly man
or why the editors should flee while the
compositors who are paid by the thous-
and ems of type set up, were not dis
turbed. People who wonder at this con-
duct and regard it as something Of
a phenomenon, are not familiar
with human nature. The stu
dent of human nature understands
that there was nothing remarkable
about the conduct of the Free Press
editors and printers. One can witness
just such conduct every day of the
year. If you will get up a dog fight
where men are working, part of them at
piece work, and part by the day, you
will discover that the day men will all
stop work and take deep interest in the
fight, while the others will scarcely
notice it. A circus procession or brass
band parade. will have the sam. effect
upon men, being urinteresting to piece
workers, but entrancingly attractive to
day laborers. The Free Press editors
stampeded: because they work by the
week and are not paid by the line. If
they were plece-workers, the earthquake
would have had no more effect on them
than a peal of stage thunder. 1t is
human nature that Is peculiar and not
the conduct of the employees of the Free
Press.

GERONIMO.

One cannot help but admire the
brave and willy old Apache chief
Geronimo. He thought he was mis-
treated by the government. an he
resented it; it makes no difference
whether the nation was acting badly
towards him, or doing the best it could
for him-he imagined that the whites
were acting oppressively, and he refused
to submit voluntarily, to the indignities
and hardships imposed. He gathered
around him such of his followers as be
lieved as he did and agreed with him as
to the nature of governments treat
meRt, and set out to do tor himself
foraging when necessary for his sup
port, killing his enemies when he ran
across them, and defending himself as
bestahe could when assailed. For two
or three years he has made war
on the greatest nation on earth !;
he has actually cost the country mil
lions of money and many lives, besides
causing more trouble than brigade of
soldiers could do. He has done these
things with less than half hundred
braves; his followers have run until
they could run no longer, when it was
to their interest to fy, and when they
could not get out of the way, they
have fought to the death. Now, his
band having been reduced to a score,
and all being surrounded with no pro
liability of escaps, the old chief talks of
making peace, but he proposes to die
tate the terms He wants his wives
brought back to him, and a separate
reservation provided for himself
and his heroes, where they
will not be offended by the
presence Of the towards of the tribe who
refused to join him in making war for
freedom or death. If the terms are not
granted he will continue the fight.
knowing that relief will come with death
if not before. as General Miles de-
mands unconditional surrender, it is
not likely that Geronimo's conditions
will be accepted, and we may expect to
hear any day that the chief has been
killed-or has escaped from the trap
driven off band of fresh horses, is well
supplied with provisions and ammuni-
ton, and prepared for carrying on the
war year or two longer. Geronimo Is
a character to be admired. He is a bad
Indian, and viii doubtless come to a
bad end. but all the same one cannot
help the feeling that the old man is one
of natures heroes.

oFFIcE-HoLDERs' RIGHTS

In this issue of THE HERALD will be
found a letter addressed to Secretary
Lamar and signed by Hon. Hadley D.
johnson, of this city. The letter IS
taken from the Tacoma Commerce, the
editor Of which prefaced it with explain
atOry comments.
Governor Johnson is to be congratu-
lated on the Independent and manly
stand be has taken in this let
ter. he shows that his politi-
cal principles are worth more
to him than a Federal Office; that ii
the price of an office is the sacrifice of
his independence of thought and action
in matters Which in no manner affect
the administration of the Office, he pre-
feIs 70 be free and not pay the price. A
man cannot have the highest re-
spect for himself who accepts an
office with the conditions that
Mr.. Cleveland has placed upon
it; one must fee, that his manhood has
been subordineted, his freedom sch
iugated, and his independence sur
rendered. if he takes Office upon the
conditions that If he were active in pol
tiles before, he must be active no more !;
if he we're interested in spreading and
establishing the principles of his party,
he mast be interested no longer; if he
we're a Democrat at the time Of his
appointment he must cease to be
a Democrat, JON the ranks of the neu-
trails, and forget that he was partisan.
When the Office holder reads the Presi-
dents letter of warning and reflects
that bis tenure of Office depends not
upon the faithful performance of his
duties, bat upon his fear to do what it
was his privilege and pride to do, and
the dong of which two years
ago made Grover Cleveland President;
when a msa, we say, thus reads
and reflects, he must necessarily hang
his head, and feel that he is paying a
high price fer the sake of drawing q
salary from the Federal treasury.
We are heartily glad that Governor
Johnson does not want an Office on tbs
terms imposed, and we are quite as glad
that be had the courage to say so. His
letter will cause him to stand higher in
his own estimation and in the estima-
ton of his party.

from that OF majority of the officers. If
we err in this we have simply formed
higher estimation of army official honor
aud liberty than exists; and if such be
he case, it is to be hoped the army off
.ers will reform and become more toler-
ant and high-minded and honorable in
their federation of religious differences
5nan the TribWnc's editors and certain
on down and broken down political
hacks who have drifted into our fair
territory under the appointment of the
general government in its, mistaken
policy of continuing territorial vassa
lage for Utah. 1t may be expected that
political tricksters and carpet-bagger
and religious cranks will be abusive
towards. and mlsrepresent the religious
sentiments and principles of & po-
litical and religious opponent; and
cry out that his religion is bias
phemy, and his devotion to his
God treason; and it may be that mis-
sion Federal officials, at times, join In
the common howl; but officers of the
U. S. army-supposed to be gentlemen
will not indulge in such disreputable
conduct. Their education and position
both demand that if they do differ from
a fellow-officer in religious matters they
do it respectfully, and with proper re-
gard for the feelings of the one from
whom they differ. Surely the common
soldiers would not be permitted to act
unb comingIy towards an officer be-
cause of the officers religion.
According to the Tribune Lieutenant
Young has never concealed his full
sympathy with the creed of his grand
father. and is a very bitter Mormon.
Yet Mr.. Young both at West Point and
in his subsequent official career, has
won the respect and esteem of his as
sociates, and the confidence of his su-
perior officers, notwithstanding his
avowed belief in Mormonism; and hay
ing won golden opinions in the
preiudiced east under these
circumstances, we think he will get
along ali o. K. at Fort Douglas. But
the Tribune is so indignant at the APP
pointment of Lieutenant Young to a
position at the camp adjacent to this
city, that it suggests that the Acting
Governor lay the facts in the case be-
fore General Sheridan and the Pres
ident. asking that the order be re-
voked, or that leave of-absence be
given the Lieutenant, that he may re-
main with his friends in this city. The
Tribune, however, is not a good mil
itary adviser, as both Ex-Governor
Murray and General McCook have
found out to their sorrow. The last
time it dabbled in military affairs in
getting troops to escort George Q. Can
non to this city when in the hands of
the civil officers, turned out wretche1ly
/ for all concerned in the heroic demon
stration; and the Acting-Goyernor will
doubtless be cautious about following
the Trlbune's suggestion.

MORE TRIBUNE FOLLY.

The childish peevishness of the Tri-
bitne whenever it discusses anything in
relation to the Mormon question, leads
it into some of the most grotesque blum
ders. In its frenzy it not infrequently
stabs itself It's writers seem to have
eaten of the insane root that drives
men mad on this Mormon question.
The latest ebulttion of Tribune folly
and spleen is contained in yesterdays
issue, in relation to the appointment Of
Richard w. Young TO serve as a lieu
tenant on a section of Captain Rawle's
battery, which the Tribune calls an out
rage and further scharacterizes the ap-
pointment as a military blunder. the
like of which has not been committed
since the order given to the Light Brig
ade to charge at Balsklavs. If the
Tri6une was only an authority in mill
tary affairs, and was considerate in its
expressions, the heart of many mill
Iary commander, both in Europe and
America would be made lighter by such
an expression. But unfortunately for
the military commanders who have COM
mitted so many blundezs between the
events mentioned by the Tribune, that
sheet is neither an authority on affairs
military nor eonsiderste in what it
says; but allows its vindistive hatred of
a people and their religion to blind its
reason altogether. The Tribune frets
us patient soul-sucb as it has-about
the appointment of Lieutenant Young
being great wrong to him, because the
whole atmosphere and tone of the
camp will De so offensive to him thai his
life Will be made miserable. That
means in the TribuHe's estimation, that
the conversation and conduct of the
officers and men at Fort Douglas will be
sc abusive Of the Mormon people with
whom Lieutenant Young is q religious
commitment, that his association with
his fellow officers viii be unpleasant,
perhaps uncomfortable. Well that idea
exhibits the T.-ibune's estimation OF the
gentlemanly, not to say Christian quail
titles Of the officers at tort Douglas.
Now, The HERALD had much more
exalted idea of the conduct OF United
States army officers towards each
other in the matter of tolera-
ton Of religious differences at
least. We thought surely that army
officers would be willing to respect the
religious sentiments OF their fellow Off
GERS. however much the religion of one
might differ from that Of another, or

CONVICT LABOR.
Press.

A chair manufacturer of st. Louis in
letter to a manufacturer convention
told of his men having been out on q
strike, and of their returning far from
feeling any exultation over the affair, ~
and added: 1--WE all sympathize with
our men and appreciate their struggles
against poverty and almost starvation
but what can we do when we have to
compete with convict labor, which
costs from IA to 90 cents day, and how
can we live and pay 81 per day."
There have been for some time past
loud complaints by leading manufac-
turing establishments. especially in the
wagon and chair making industries and
in the boot and shoe manufactures.
Labor unions and labor conventions
have murmured something about con
Wet labor competition with which they
are displeased, etc. But it seems
to Us that any difficulty arising out oi
this alleged competition between free
AMI convict labor, might easily be
avoided by combining the sale of the
products of the respective penitentiaries
to the States sRd Territories where they
were manufactured, and by making it
unlawful for those having the disposal
of the convict labor products to sell
them for less than the same class of
goods are selling for in the market that
have been produced by free labor.
There would then be no evils arising,
either against tie manufacturer or la
borer. from convict labor. -
