Graves comes back at is about our
recent article in reference to the county
printing and uses his usual mode OF
argument by abuseing lie editor ofthis
paper and says we don't l>nc1, anJ-
thing and finally winds up by making
the following stalteling admission:
1T is undoubtedly the CYcI0NL' $
privilege to discuss these matters, but
some designing person has cvedently
misled itintO making false statements.
On page 223 Of the proceedings Of
the board OF county commissioners,
we find that on motion tie county
printing was let to 3. g.. Grayes at
one-half leg;rl rates, anti Grave 4...s

At the April meeting Ct the board, y.
X. Hill, representing the ReYille, made
q proposition to do the county printing
for fifty cents per quarter, and the
Herald for one dollar per, quarter, now
it is an undisputable fact that the com
misslOncrs ignored both bids and that
Graves is yet relieving from this
county over 500 per quarter for the
same work that others equally rs re-
sponsible offered 10 do for mere
nothing. Now who is to bIalne2 We
can't blame Graves for drawing al the
commissioners will allow, for it is con
sistant with his local teachings to take
all he can get, but we DO ask him to
show the taxpayers Of Graham county
how he Isl now getting the county
printing at one-half legal rates, which.
by the way makes very good pay, when
men just as reliable offer and are re-
fused, the same work. at mere moth
ing; then if we are at fault for spring
ing this question, we will admit the
fault, but we can not see the necessity
Of the toiling taxpayers of Graham
county paying Graves over 500 for q
fifty cent job. But if there is Q ring in
Graham county, maybe it costs some
thing to stand in? Ifso, isn't it nice
to have the taxpayers to pay adms-
sion fees?

LABOR REPORT.

The DEMOCRAT acknowledges the re-
ceipt OF a copy OF THE First Annual Re-
port OF the Commissioner OF Labor.
The law under which Mr.. Carroll d..
Wright, the Commissioner OF Labor, was
appointed provides that he "shall collect
information upon the subject OF labor, its
relation to capital, the hours OF labor,
and the earnings OF laboring men and
women, and the means of promoting
their material, social, intellectual and
moral prosperity"
The report is largely made up OF sta
tistical tables, some OF them OF little
worth, One OF the most interesting and
suggestive chapters in the report relates
to the earnings and expenses OF wage
receivers in Europe. Take for instance
from it the earnings and expenses OF a
bricklayer's family OF six in Leeds,
England. Parents, son aged l6, girl
about l5, and two children. The son
and oldest girl work in woolen mills. The
family live in n four-roomed cottage,
poorly furnished, and are ill-clad. The
father earns $2S8 per annum, the son
1852, the daughter $l5G. Det-Break-

SILENT INFLUENCES,

The silent energies of nature work out
the mightiest results. So in the moral
and intellectual world, unobtrusive, al
most unnoticed influences give drec-
ton and character to the community, the
nation and the world.
To-day, in Independence Hall, in this
city, the first meeting of two-Iays' con-
vention OF New West Education teachers
and OF delegates from Congregational
churches in this Territory is in session
Probably but few OF our citizens, aside
from those who are Immediately
connected with these institutions
know or give themselves concern
about the work which is being done
by these silent but influential
workers. In comfortable school rooms,
mostly OF its own building, the New
West Education Society have placed a
score or more OF the best grade OF Chris
tian teachers, and gathered over two
thousand Utah children into free schools,
in various parts OF the Territory. To-day,
this evening and tomorrow these teach
ers will report progress, and compare
notes with each other in open convention.
II our citizens would learn OF mighty
movement, OF the workings OF eaven
which, in conjunction with cooperative
efforts by other workers on parallel lines,
is penetrating the darkness of Utah with
streams of light, they will avail them
selves OF the privilege OF meeting with
these workers and catching portion OF
their enthusiasm. Our hope of the iu-
ture OF Church and State and of the
world is based upon the rising genera
ton. Law for the law-breakers, and
light and gospel for the young, are the
two instrumentalities that must 90 hand
in hand in the regeneration OF Utah. Let
us give to the leaders in this joint work
help and encouragement as opportunity
presents.

cayenne pepper" and the balmy air OF
California, this city, with its increasing
conveniences and luxurious hotels, will
attract winter as well as summer travel.
Now is the winter Of our discomfort in
connection with social, political and busi-
ness matters. But the latent advantages
and sleeping opportunities wrapped up
in Utah's mineral-laden mountains, fer
tile valleys and vast fields Of coal and iron,
will wake into activity under the influ-
ence OF incoming capital and labor.
There are indications that the incubus OF
a church and State despotism will soon
be removed, that the songs of labor will
sound jocund from our mountain tops
and that Utah, disenthralled and free
under National rule, will fill the measure
OF her high destiny and take her appro
pirate place as the most favored common
wealth on the Pacific slope.

THE IRREPREssIBLE CONFLICT

There is, and has been, a Loyal
League" in Utah, in formal or informal
way, ever since real American citizens
for the first time looked from the ruling
abomination here into each others an
swerng eyes. Innate loyalty, like Thu
riel's spear in its Transforming touch, ex-
poses every disguise Of the devilish
trinity in unty--the union OF church,
State and polygamy. The intuitions of a
patriot will make him the natural enemy
of the thoroughly un-American despotism
which bears sway in Utah. Men of vari-
GUS political parties and of opposing
opinions, but lovers of their country and
its institutions, find themselves OF one
accord in their instructive hostility to
this Ishmaelitsh system. Since the
devil was unclaimed and turned loose
upon the earth, history fails to produce a
rival to this intolerant, savage and thor
oughly un-Christian scheme. And this
is the ever-present menace which con-
fronts the Government and the people of
this nation. Through its thousands OF
priests, its paid attorneys and its few un'
scrupulous apologists-its Phil, Robin
sons, Captain Codmans and DR.. Millers-
it burdens the air with its plantive or de
fiant outcries.
The coming session OF Congress is all
too short, it is to be feared, to settle tht
so-called problem upon a rightful ant
permanent basis And this for the reason
that the active emissaries OF tn,
priesthood, have such an inert mass ol
indifference, ignorance and seltishness to
fall back upon, and 50 active and intiu
ential an array of mercenaries and crank'
to rely upon, that short, sharp and deci
sive action is difficult matter to obtain.
The priesthood and its allies will b,
obliged to show their hands at least
They hope much from supposed partisan
necessities and from corporation and
business men to whose revenues the J
contribute.
The loyal element OF Utah will b,
represented at the coming session OF Con
gress by men of integrity and ability
Messrs. Baskin and Bennett. They un
derstand the situation here thoroughly
and have the entire confidence OF tn,
American portion OF the community. Il
is to be hoped they will be early on the
ground, strong in the truth. "Thrice is
he armed who hath his quarrel inst.
