THE FREE EDUCATION BILL.
Measure That VIII Affect Utah
Pleasantly Should 1t Pass.

WASHINGTON, Feb. PAT 2 o'clock in
the Senate yesterday, the Education bill
was laid before the Senate, and Morgan
took the floor on it.
The bill, Mr.. Morgan said, was a bill to
create offices and an elaborate machinery
OF the government. 1T was bill to tax
the honest, hard workingman in order to
educate the children of the drunken, loaf
ing vagabond, who would not work for
his family. If from the sixty millions of
people in the United States were to be
deducted all the dead-heads, dead-beats
and non-producers, there would be about
twenty millions of people lett who would
have to pay taxes to carry out the provis-
ions ofsthis bill. The bill itself would be

IN THE UNITED KINGDOM.

The recent riots in London at one time
gave promise OF being brought to an end
only after severe struggle between the
military forces and the rioters, and the
loss Of many lives. Happily, the trouble
feared was averted, and peace again
relgns in the metropolis Of the world.
Whoever or whatever may have been
the immediate cause of precepitating
these riots, there can be no doubt that
the suffering of the masses for the neces-
sarles OF life was at the bottom Of
the outbreak. As we have before
stated, there must be something
radically wrong in the governmental
system of a country under which
such thing as actual suffering among
the masses, because of enforced idleness
becomes possible. :
One OF the causes of distress lin ihn.

GERMANY LIKEWISE.
The following significant dispatch was
printed in the DEMOCRAT last evening:

printed In the DEMOCRAT last evening.
LONDON. February ia Reuter- telegram
from Berlin states that motion introduced
IN the Reichstag by Herr Hume in behalf OF
'the conservatives, urging new and search.
ing inquiry into the currency question. with
view to ascertaining whether it would be
better to adhere to mono-metallism or to re-
turn to the double standard was adonted
to-day by vote of 145 to 119.
1t begins to look as though the states.
men OF the German Empire had received
revelation on the subject OF bi-metal-
ilsm. In 1871, the coinage act which
committed Prussia to a gold standard, was
passed. the act providing for the with
drawal OF all existing silver coins and the
eventual demonetization of that
metal except for subsidiary pur-
poses. Thirteen years under gold
standard have passed, and now the
Legislators OF the German EN-
pire begin to doubt the wisdom of forcing
silver from its legitimate sphere in the
monetary system of the world, and are
anxious that "new and searching inquir-
les into the currency question" should be
made, with view to ascertaining whether
1t would be better to adhere to mono
metallisln or to return to the double
standard
1t is evident from this that Germany
senses the mistake she made i'm this mat
ter thirteen years ago, and will now make
an effort to return to the bi-metallic
standard. To accomplish this will be no
easy task, for Germany, like England, is
afflicted with powerful class of usurers
ana money-mongers, who in the event |
OIL such legislation, would to.a great ex-
TENT lind their occupation gone. Hence
they will solidly oppose return to the
double standard, and by all the means in
their power, legitimate and illegitimate
VIII endeavor to keep the country on a
gold basis. La this they will doubtless
receive substantial aid and assistance
from their fellow-usurers in England
for should Germany conclude to restore
silver to the position it formerly occupied
In the monetary system of the Empire.
who can tell what the effect might be on
England?
Truly, the silver lining to this cloud
begins to show its splendors to the world

United Kingdom, We think, may be
traced to the manner in which land is
withheld from acquisition by the people,
save under rental. Here are some
figures upon this subject, showing to
what extent the lands of the United
Kingdom have been monopolized by So
called noblemen. After contemplating
the picture of distress afforded by the
suffsrings of 10000 destitute souls in
the city of London alone, we look upon
another picture.
In the whole United Kingdom, eight
persons own more than 100000, acres
each, and no less than forty-one persons
own more than 100000 acres each. The
number Of acres held by a few of the
largest owners are as follows:

The President, while determined that
the Chinese in this country must be pro-
tected from lawless violence, shows that
he is eminently well versed in the evils
of Chinese immigration, and gives ground
for the hope that he will aid to the limit
OF his powers any legislation calculated to
help the white people in ridding them
selves of these unwholesome neighbors.

is it any wonder that the agricultural
laborers of the United Kingdom are dis
contented with their LOT, when they know
that all hope of securing lands for Them
selves is barred, and the best they can
do is to expend their life's labor in work
ing ION other mems property, receiving Us
compensation barely sufficient to provide
the coalsest of food and raiment for
themselves and families? Is it any won
der that such men feel like forsaking the
pursuit of agriculture and removing to
the already overcrowded cities in the hope
OF there finding that employment which
will bring to them at least wages sufficient
to live on without stinting their stom-
achs? But, alas! for their expectations
Reaching the great cities, they find that
the supply of labor there is many times
in excess of the demand, and to procure
employment is an impossibility. Then
comes the cry-"Bread or Bloodp
The lot of the laborer in the United
Kingdom is not a happy one, and the au-
thorities would do we'll to heed the signs
already manifest of gathering storm.

Silver Wedding.

The following, taken from the DeLcon
Springs, Florida, Courier, will be read with
interest by the friends of Senator Delano
and wife in this vicinity:
Glenwood was a scene Of unusual merri-
ment last night About eight o'clock mas
sive crowds of people could be seen vending
their way toward the palatial residence OF
Senator Charles Delano. Some of these peo-
pie carried odd looking packages, securely
hidden from view, while the bright rays of
the silver moon revealed happy smile up
on every face.
The editor of the Courier arrived about
S:l5, and at that time quite crowd had as
semtled in the spacious parlor Of the Deiano
mansion. This was the place where the
throng of merry makers had been invited to
spend the evening. 1t was the twenty fifth
anniversary Of the marriage Of our host and
hostess Silver threads may now be seen
among the raven locks of our host, but what
did his face show? lie was as young in his
happiness as he was upon his wedding day.
Contentment was plainly to be seen in every
feature of his face; every expression of his
countenance. Mrs Delano looked as happy
as a schoolgirl, and not day older, either,
for she is just as lovely to-day as she was
when she was q school girl.
The parlors were handsomely illuminated
and decorated, and after awhile it was our
good fortune to look at the presents that had
been sent it. The following Is partial list:
From the citizens Of Glenwood solid sill
yer water service. The pitcher was hand
somely etched and carved, and was model
of neatness and completeness.
From Mrs. Cameron, of Chicago, daughter
of Maj Norris, one dozen silver ice cream
spoons.
From Master Dwight Cameron, of Chicago,
one dozen silver fruit knives.
Mrs Smith, of Chicago, sister Of Mrs.
Delano, sent two lovely hand painted silver
panels.
Dancing and progressive euchre were in
dulged in until very late hour, and if there
was sad face in the assembly we failed to
discover it.
Refreshments in great abundance were
served. and those who ever tasted of Mr.
and Mrs. Delano' hospitality know what that
means.
At a very hour late the guests dis
persed, wishing for Mr.. and Mrs. DelanC
many more happy wedding anniversaries.

That Great Special Sale.

The great special sale at H. ]. GILLES's,
which covers all departments Of the house,
is daily increasing IN interest among buyers,
and sales are unprecedentedly large in all
lines. The fact is, that this immense stock
is offered at prices all acknowledge to be
low-very low. The advantages gained by
buy ing in depressed market are all given
the Gust ,mer. This is an important advan-
tsge in itself, but it is coupled with the de-
sire to unload the stock before the season
closes, Gt is now growing late,) either OF
which facts would force prices down, but
here both conditions are combined to the ad-
vantage of the buyer. That the sale has
been so very successful is due to these facts,
and the further fact that in extent, richness
and variety the stock Of the house in all de-
partments is absolutely unequalled in the
county; and the great results of the sale
thus far show that frstclass seasonable
goods can be bought in Ottawa at very little,
if any, above wholesale prices.
1t is a sale which, in short, offers bargains
that have not and cannot be met in the city
at this time. 1t covers all lines of dry goods
and the boot and shoe departments as well;
and in this latter department the public will
be astonished at the actual bargains that
may be secured.
