Envoy Sedg gwick's Conduct,

WHICH
SECRETARY BAYARD DOES NOT BELIEVE
A special dispatch to the Chicago Times from
the City OF Mexico announces the arrival there
OF Special Envoy Sedgwick, and gives q sensa-
tional account OF the manner in which he is en-
tertained by the natives. 1t states that some
OF the wild young Mexicans gave him dinner
at which the wine flowed freely all night long
and the conduct of which was not entirely
consonant with the dignity of the ENJOYS posi-
tlon. AT six O'Clock III the morning, the dis
patches alleges, the carousing party escorted
Mr. sedswck ABOUT the city, visiting question
able places. Secretary Bayard, when shown
these dispatches last ght, said he had been
impressed with MIR. Sedgwick as &. perfect gem
tieman. He said he did not believe the story
and would not be convinced OF it's truth until
he was in receipt W positive proof.
NO INFORMATION RECEIVED HERE
No information had been received at the
State department to-day concerning Special
Envoy Sedgwick's alleged escapade. The off,
prove to be true they would be greatly sur
prised, as they look upon him as a man Of dig
nifty and sell-respect, who would not be be-
trayed into such dissipation.
One theory at the State department is that
some adventurer was personating Sedgwick
The subject has been q general topic OF dis.
cussiOn on the streets and in the departments
today, and the question generally put Is "Who
is Sedgwick?" Nobody seems to know much
OF him. 1t is said that the selection was made
by the State department, and that the Presi-
dent had nothing to do with the appointment
dispatch to the New York Herald, dated at
the City OF Mexico yesterday, says Mr.. Sedg-
wick since his arrival there has made an u1-
usually good impression on all whom he has
met. Last evening he dined with Senior NJ. L.
foreign affairs, and Senior Romero Ru bio, min.
lister Of the interior. This week he will be EN-.
tertainea by several prominent persons, among
them Gen. Enrique MeXia, when all the cabi-
net ministers will be present. Mr.. Sedgwick
said yesterday that he was progressing iinely
with his investigation, being afforded by the
q
ment, through the legation, every facility ior
prosecuting MS work. He will remain another
week and then go to Chihuahua aud PaSo del
Norte. He hopes to conclude the investigation
within three weeks

CONSIDERING THE TARIFF BILL

Our dispatches this afternoon state that
the House Committee on Ways and
Means have taken up the Morrison tariff
bill for detailed consideration. This is
the measure which contains the proposal
to knock the tariff off lead ores and par
alyze the mining interests OF the Pacific
Coast.
While up to this time there has been
no canvass OF the House to ascertain the
strength OF the members who favor tariff
revision, it is pretty we'll settled that the
bill will encounter strong opposition from
many Democrats who have heretofore
been supposed to be more or less in favor
OF tinkering with the tariff. 1t seems
that the sentiments OF many Southern
Representatives have undergone II de-
cided change on this question since it was
last considered in Congress.
"Within the past three years" says Il
who undertakes to explain why the
Southern Congressman will be found to
be opposed to Mr.. Morrison's bill, "a
large amount oil capital has been invested
in industrial establishments in the South
and from sections where such estab-
lishments are located, members are daily
in receipt OF protests against any radical
change in the tariff at this time. It's be
lieved by those who have made inquiries
that the protection theory is stronger in
Congress than at any time since the
Democrats obtained control Of the House
OF Representatives, and a number o
Democratic members express the belle
that Morrison's bill will certainly fail
The miners OF the West are unit in
denunciation OF the provision which af
fects their interests, and they live il
strong hopes that the bill will be buriet
under an avalanche OF negative vote
when it is reported from the committe
room.
Salt Lake evening Democrat. [volume] (Salt Lake City, Utah) 1885-1887, 1886-03-16
THE QUESTIONS OF THE HOUR.

A meeting OF prominent non Mormons,
embracing representatives OF the mining,
mercantile, banking and other profess
sions, was held at the Walker House last
evening, at which the situation in Utah
was fully and freely talked over. AS
result OF this interchange OF views, it
was agreed to send delegate to Wash
ington to represent the Gentle interests,
and to urge the passage oil such measures
as will prove fully eilicacious in dealing
with the evils existing here. Hon. r.
n Baskin was the gentleman decided
upon, and at the solicitation of the
meeting he accepted the invitation, and
in II few days will leave for the national
capital to enter upon the discharge Of his
duties. Mr.. Baskin is Il Democrat
through and through and the one man
above all others upon whom the choice
for delegate would have fallen had the
selection been made by the Gentiles en-
mdSse.
The Woodburn bill, we understand,
was under discussion at this meeting, and
the general opinion was that, with an
amendment authorizing the early holding
OF an election for members Of the Legisa-
tive Assembly (thc object OF which would
be, we presume, to insure the convenng
Of the Assembly at as early date as
practcable), it would meet the wishes OF
the Gentiles here and undoubtedly re.
ceive the support sufficient to carry it
through Congress without delay. One or
two other, but minor, changes were also
deemed to be necessary.
The next thing to be done, as the DEM
ocRAr looks at it, is for the Gentiles to
meet in mass conventions, as now con-
templated, and with all the earnestness
and publicity possible, make known their
approval OF the measures embodied in
the Woodburn bill. il that is the bill the y
desire to have enacted into law; and, by
petition or otherwise, ask that it be given
Congress which the magnitude OF the
evils it is designed to remedy should &C.
cure for it.
Upon the heels OF this there should be
such public and unmistakable endorse
ment OF the selection of Mr.. Baskin MS
the Gentle representative in Washing
ton, as will leave not the shadow of ,
doubt in the minds OF the gentlemen
with whom he may be brought in contac
while discharging the duties growing out
OF the trust reposed in him, that in urg
ing such legislation rs he may, he does
but reflect the sentiment OF all the non
Mormon population OF Utah.
Let the Territorial Central Committee
OF the Democratic party-which party
by the way, should lead the van in thi
march against the common enemy--los,
no time in taking such definite action a
will lead to the results most to be desired
The time for action has arrived; let tn
fight be entered upon at once and wit
all the earnestness that free-born sons
liberty-loving sires can inject into tn
struggle for the rights and privilege
unlawfully withheld from them by vii
thaOcracy
