LOOK AT IT ANOTHER WAY.

Governor Murray has vetoed the Bail
bill, as all know. The Tribune character
lied the bill as shame and disgrace.
That is mere nonsense. We disagree
with the Governor as to the policy of the
bill, and regret that he did not approve
it. In the heat of the contest here in
Utah we are all very apt to overlook the
general policy of law, which is to deal
with matters on general principles which
are calculated to serve under all circum-
stances. Governor Murray thought it
was not wise to deprive the courts of
the discretion they have in the matter
of allowing bail after conviction.
Let us look at the question from the gen.
eral principle point of view. supposing
the Judges of the District Courts were
Mormons, would there he the same solici-
tude to preserve the same discretion in
them in regard to allowing bail that there
is now? Here is a test, and one which
puts this matter of discretion in its true
light. True liberty always depends upon
law and never upon individuals. That
this is true, none will contest.
Take as another illustration Of
this doctrine the Jury bill, which
is now under consideration in the Legis-
lature. What the attitude of Governor
Murray is towards this bill is not known,
but great many have given expression
to their views on the bill. These views
are to the effect that it is designed to
facilitate an evading of the Edmunds
law by polygamists. Let that be granted;
still that bill does not make
it possible for man to sit
on jnry in polygamy case
when through bias or conviction he
is disqualified. 1t is said there is no need
for such a measure for obtaining jurors,
because open venire is better way. Let
us look at this way, and test it from the
general principle point of view. If the
United States Marshal were a Mormon,
would an open venire be the
best way of obtaining jury
in polygamy cases? Supposing the
Marshalship should ever be filled by
man open to bribery, would the open
cenire be looked upon as such superior
way of obtaining jury? We think not,
and all important political and legal ques-
tons must be dealt with according to
general principles.

THE LEGISLATURE.
The Council.

! The Council.
JANUARY 20, 10 a. nc. F. No. 13
providing for Territorial Board of Equal
ization, came up as the special order
Section 8 provides for members of the
Board giving bonds, Except the Secretary
OF the Territory and the Territorial
Auditor of Public Accounts,) which Mr.
Taylor moved to strike out, but the mo-
ton was lost.
/ Section 10 provides for paying each
member of the Board Except the Terri.
torial Auditor of Public Accounts) 81 pei
| day.
Mr.. Taylor moved to strike this out.
Messrs. Sharp and Barton opposed
striking out, because that officer receives
a good salary.
Mr.. Francis was in favor of the motion,
as the Auditor ought to be paid for his
services.
| Mr.. Taylor said that the Assembly had
petition before it from the Auditor ask
ing an appropriation to pay clerk hire.
He had little faith in appropriations until
they had passed both branches of the
Legislature and been signed by the Gov
ernor. We have passed good laws and
then the Governor has refused to sign the
bills.
Mr.. Hammond opposed creating new
fees for public officers; that such crea-
tions made it so that we did not know
exactly what we were paying our public
officers, and he was in favor of stated
salary for them, and not contingent sal
aries.
Mr.. Sharp said this was new duty to
be placed on the Auditor, and he was in
favor of that officer having fixed salary
and no perquisites in such duties as wer
proposed to impose upon him.
Mr.. Francis said that this was an en-
tirely new duty they were imposing on
the Auditor duty that did not pertain
to his Office.
The exception was stricken out and the
bill passed, with one no-Mr. Taylor.
Mr.. Barton moved that when the Coun-
Gil adjourned it be till Monday, February
1st, at 2 p. m. Carried.
Mr.. Hammond, from the Committee
on enrolment, reported that G. F. No. Z,
amending sections and 5, chapter As,
Laws of 1884, and G. F. No. 18, prescrib-
ing the punishment for a misdemeanor,
engrossed and forwarded to the Governor.
At 1850 a. m. the Council adjourned
till Monday, February LIST, at 2 p. m.

THE FIGHT.

The Republican Senators have for a
long time been endeavoring to get up a
fight with the President overhis appoint
ments. At last they seem to have got
it. They have been seeking this fight
merely for the purpose of making politi-
cal capital out of it, and for no other pur-
pose. So far as civil-service reform is
concerned they do not care single par
ticle. The Senate has the confirming
power, it is true, but they have not the
power of dictators, and it is that which
they are claiming. The fight bids fair
to become contest between coordinate
powers of the Government, and whatever
may be the right of the Senate to demand
various documents from the different De-
partments, the Senate can never coerce
the President Ii he shall forbid the
heads of the different Departments to let
any papers out of their possession, how
can the Senate force the heads of these
Departments to comply with their
demands? The present contest may be
long and bitter land in this contest it is
the duty of every Democrat to stand by
his party colors. The Republicans were
in power SO long, and they used this power
SO insolently, that they have come to
think they own the American Govern
ment and that every one who does not
thumb up or thumb down when their
Simon says so is guilty of treason. 1t is
high time they were taught differently.
The Republican party has been the party
of high ideas and moral ground. and
while they have venerated the Constitu-
ton, still their veneration has been very
lukewarm but solely for the reason
that the Constitution fell so
far short of their high standard
of excellence. Now the Republican
Senators are donning their pure white
vestures, and as they are seen from afar
they look like the vestal virgins of ancient
Rome They have been looking for a
pretext here and a pretext there upon
which to make issue with the President,
and they have sought this pretext
for the sake of breaking down the Presi-
dents work of reform, for they plainly
see that every reform he introduces
is condemnation of the methods and
doings of their party, and well they know
that success of the Presidents reforms
means the success of the party which
elected him. The President may have
made some bad. appointments and may
have suspended some good officers, but
for these things themselves the Republi
cans do not care. In presence of the
fight which the Republican Senators are
about to make upon the President, it is
well for the Democratic party to sink all
minor differences and to stand solidly for

THE ASYLUM.

The visit of the Governor and Legisla
ture and Federal and Territorial official
to the Insane Asylum at Provo yesterda,
was pleasant affair in every way, bu
the greatest satisfaction to those wh'
visited the Asylum was to see the carr
and kindness bestowed upon those in tht
Asylum. The Asylum is credit to the
Territory, and the public funds have
never been appropriated to better use
than in erecting this institution. The
saddest sight in life is to see people who
are bereft of their reason, and the State
has no higher duty than the one it owes
to such people. Those people ol
the Territory who have lost theil
reason can find here home where they
will receive the best of treatment in every
respect. If the present Asylum has any
fault it is the fault of not having suffi-
cient number of wards for the various
classes of insanity. At present there are
but two wards, and these are for the
males and females, but no attempt is
made to separate those who are suffering
from acute mania from those who are suf-
fering from melancholia and the milder
types of insanity. This is necessity be-
cause the south wing OF the Asylum alone
is completed. DIR. Pike and his able
assistant, DIR. Hardy, have utilized the
building to the best advantage,
and too much praise cannot be
given them and their assistants for
the almost perfect discipline they have
established among the patients, and the
great merit of this discipline is that it has
been brought about by treating the pa
tients with mildness and gentleness. The
docility of Sherman is an example of
this. For twenty years he was a raving
maniac in this city, and was treated as
one whom it was unsafe to trust out of
irons. Through the methods employed
at the Asylum Sherman is become very
quiet and he has the same freedom that
the other patients have. We have heard
some criticise the Asylum, saying that it
was too expensive an institution for the
Territory to build. 1t is not so. The
money which was appropriated for the
Asylum has been well and wisely ex-
pended, and in cause that must enlist
the sympathy of every man who bears
within him a human heart. There are
some things still wanting to complete the
Asylum, but it is safe to presume that
the Legislature will give full considera-
ton to these things, and as the members
of the Legislature thoroughly inspected
every part of the building it is unneces-
sary to indicate the things needed.

I" IN UTAH THERE ARE NO PARTY
LINES"

On JackSon'S Day the army officers at
Fort Douglas gave reception to the
Federal officials of the Territory. The
reception was one of those pleasant af-
fairs which army officers ever manage
with consummate skill. At the reception
number of speeches were made, per
haps the most noticeable one of all being
the speech made by Surveyor-General
Dement,. That which made this speech
noticeable was the following remark !:
"In Utah there are no party lines. I
came here Democrat, but cannot but
regard the man who favors political di-
visions here as one who does not grasp
the situation" This remark was dis
cussed considerably by all parties in the
town, and those who desire to see no
party divisions in Utah regarded GEN
eral Dement'S remark as wonderous wise,
and it was said in his praise that he did
grasp the situation in Utah. We did not
agree with General Dement'S remark
when it was made and we do not agree
with it to-day. What we wish to call at
tention to is the laudation bestowed on
General Dement, for his knowledge of the
situation in Utah, for his Sgrasp" of it.
This laudation and grasp must be
borne in mind to understand that which
follows. In another column will be found
telegram from Chicago which gives a
sort of summary of the report which Gen
eral Dement, will make. That telegram
will be very interesting reading to many
of the Federal officials, but we are in
clined to doubt whether they will be SO
lavish in their praise of General Dement,
when they read that he "claims that the
entire Federal system of the Territory is
honeycombed with fraud" On what
grounds General Dement, makes such q
charge we do not know, but in this mat
ter he makes, according to this telegram,
a direct charge and charge that goes
home to the Federal officials of
Utah. General Dement, will find that
he has not grasped the situation
in Utah if he thinks he can express an
independent opinion on Federal affairs in
Utah and not be soundly berated by the
very ones who have been telling him that
there are not party lines in Utah. He
will probably learn that there are no
party lines here and never will be so long
as the Republicans, through prejudice,
passion and assumed superiority. can
have things their own way; but General
Dement, will find that when he tells
that which CRATES upon the ears OF these
salf-same Republicans there are party
lines in Utah. And he will find further
that if he does not array himself
upon the Republican side he will
be placed upon the traitor side Of this
line, and he will be placed upon that side
because ''in Utah there are no party
lines" and the Republican ring in Utah
have taught the country to believe
that this is the case. and General Dement,
himself has accepted this false teaching.
The chances are nine out of ten that those
who SO lauded General Dement, for his
speech at Fort Douglas on Jackson's Day
will charge that he himself has been
bought by the Mormon church. "There
are more things in heaven and earth,
Horatio, than are dreamed of in your
phiIosopny ,,
