IN PORTLAND, OREGON.
Great Fears That an Anti-Chfnese
Demonstration May
Occur To-Day.

PORTLAND, Or. Feb 12-One of the
leaders of the anti-C Chinese movement
stated to an Associated Press correspond
ent last night that the Congress called to
meet here tomorrow would pass resolu-
ton calling on all persons employing
Chinese to discharge them. If at the end
ployed, the anti-Chinese associations will
boycott such employers, and also all per-
sons patronizing such employers. These
resolutions have been prepared, SO the
Associated Press reporters informant
said, and he had no doubt will pass, with
possibly an amendment or two. He fur
ther stated he believed no attempt would
be made to drive the Chinese from their
abodes, as threatened by Burnett G.
Haskell, and that the Congress would
disperse quietly.
The sheriff to-day swore in three humid
red special deputies, each armed with a
six-shooter. It is we'll known that large
number of Chinese have recently bought
revolvers and rifles and will defend their
lives and property. The principal fear
now is that some drunken and irrespon-
sible crowd, small perhaps, may attack
Chinese house whose occupants are arm
ed, IN which case it is not unlikely some
of the attacking party will be killed. If
this occurs big riot will be almost in
evitable.
This evening a meeting of the members
of the Grand Army of the Republic was
held, and the services of seventy-five vet
Grams were rendered to the Mayor for the
preservation of the peace in case of
trouble in the next few days, The COM
pany does not serve as a Post of the G.
A. r., but simply as home guard. At
9 o'clock tonight, Mayor Gates bought
Winchester rifles and supply of ammu-
milton for the company, who will report
to the commander of the State militia
whenever necessary, and move under his
orders. Within the past forty-eight hours
there has been wonderful crystalliza-
tion OF sentiment in favor of suppressing
at the outset any unlawful acts.

SHOULD BE ATTENDED TO.

A special telegram from Washington to
the Chicago Inter-O Ocean says it is now
settled that the nomination of General
Dement, to be Surveyor-General for Utah
will be rejected by the Senate. On what
authority this statement is made the cor
respondent does not say; probably it was
stipulated by those from whom he re-
ceived his pointer" that the source of
his information should not be made
public. Anyhow, We are inclined to
think that the statement is made upon
good authority.
An opportunity is now presented for
the Democrats of Utah to secure the ap-
pointment to office of local candidate !;
in any event, they should make it their
business to see that the matter is prop
erly laid before the appointing power.
Prior to General Dement'S nomination,
two or more local aspirants sent in appli-
cations for the Office. One candidate, at
least, was very strongly endorsed for the
PO"ioiOi' Aio ptpCio oilOWliS tildt dlluOst
without exception the prominent Demo-
Gratis of Utah were at his back.
The President, however, for reasons
best known to himself, saw fit to go out
side of the Territory to select aman; and
now that time has proven the total unfit
ness OF the nominee to hold any public
office, it is only reasonable to suppose
that in appointing his successor the Ex-
ecutive will be willing that the De-
mocracy of the locality where the Off
clal's services are to be rendered, shall
share with him the responsibility which
attaches to the endorsement and appoint
ment OF a man to hold public trust.
The President may rest assured that the
Democrats of Utah will recommend to
him for office none but good men, thor
oughiy qualified to discharge the duties
OF the positions to which their appoint /
ment may be asked.
Let the necessary steps be taken inn
mediately to draw attention of the proper
authorities to the papers, now on file, of
local applicants for the Suryeyor-Gen
erals Office. The appointment to Office
of bona.fde resident of the Territory
would, it is true, be novel departure in
the case of Utah, but it would be fully
appreciated by the local Democracy.

WHAT rs THE ALTERNATIVE? 4?

The Legislature has already been in
session over one-half OF the time pre-.
-scribed by law, and as yet not single
measure has been passed that has suf-
ficiently commended itself to Execu-
tive favor to receive the sanction neces-
sary to make it law. The time of the
legislators seems to have been occupied
in great part in framing and discussing
bills which, had they received the
Governors approval, would have
simply enabled a class of offenders
against the Edmunds act to fur
ther protract the struggle now
being made here to make the law su-
preme. This is bad showing, but, after
all, what else was to be expected? True,
these legislators are not themselves prac-
hcal polygamists least, they are not
supposed to be such-but not one of them
would to-day be sitting in the legislative
halls had the polygamists who WELD the
power behind the throne, willed it other
wise. For this mess of pottage they
must reciprocate but if all their efforts
to help the men who placed them where
they are should fall to the ground, why,
then the will must be taken for the deed.
How vain was the hope that this Leg
lslature would set about working such
reform here as would give promise on
their part, and the part Of the men who |
stand at their back, to bring this Terri
tory into harmony with the States that
compose the Union! They will not do
it. What, then, is the alternative? Let
it be what it may. it cannot be. anything
that will make the present bad situation
worse, and it cannot be given to us mo-
ment too soon.

nitude of transactions is increasing. The
result is more money is needed by those
countries. Even in the German Empire,
as was pointed out yesterday, the gold
supply is SO limited that it is with diff
Guilty the exchanges of the country can
be transacted, and proposition to re-
store silver to its former sphere in the
monetary system is shortly to be con-
sidered.
Gold, instead of being the standard of
values which some people claim it is, is
subject, like other commodities, to the
laws of supply and demand. The testi-
mony of the most reliable authorities
shows that the growing populations and
expanding trade of civilized countries
need more gold than it is possible to OBJ
tain, unless some new, and at present un
known, source is discovered. 1t is no
longer adequate to the worlds wants,
and to meet the emergency silver must
be fully restored to the monetary system
of the world.

APPLY IT TO UTAH.

Can it be true that even the hide-boun(
Salt Lake Herald is beginning to realize
the true situation of affairs in Utah? l
not, what could it be that led it up to the
following fit of moralizing:
One of these days the doctrine of the
divine authority conferred on the monarch
to rule will certainly pass away from all in.
telligent peoples.
That is true, and applies to Utah
equally as well as to the monarchies of
the Old World. To-day, by virtue of the
"divine authority" vested in him as
President of the Mormon Church, John
Taylor rules over the people of this
Territory as absolutely as any crowned
potentate of Europe rules over
his subjects. The Herald saws
that, in the case of the latter, the
doctrine of divine authority to rule twill
certainly pass away from all intelligent
peoples" 1t will. But what is the mat
ter with the :" intelligence" of the people
of Utah that they, too, cannot brush
away this delusion, which for so many
years has held them, body and soul, as
the subjects of man who assumes to
rule over them by virtue of this
same "divine right ?" Is their in
telligence" not equal to the oc-
casion? Are the subjects of Euro
pean monarchs intellectually SO far
in advance of the people of Utah that
they can throw off that which here is
hugged to the soul as truth from the lips
of the living God? What commentary
on the Intelligence" Of the men of Utah.
The above extract furnishes us with
the first gleam of common sense that has
been observed in the columns of the Her.
aid for many long day, and the editor
needs only to pursue the subject and to
apply it locally, to land him Oh the high
road to apostacy from the Church.

THE WORLDS SUPPLY OF GOLD

1t is claimed that the worlds stock OF
gold at the present time is about double
what it was in 1S4S, and consequently, il
there were no other influences to counter.
act the effect of this, and gold was the
standard some people claim it is, the
prices of all commodities would have
been at least double in lS47 what they
are now. But the progress of inventions
for increasing general production, the in
crease of population and wealth, the de-
monetization of silver and the establish
meDt of gold currencies in its stead in
Germany and elsewhere, have neutral
lied the effect of this disturbing element
and caused gold to rise.
Statistics show that before the Califor-
mia discoveries of lS4S the production of
the old mines was about $67, 500 900 a
year; but the discoveries raised the total
yield in three years, 1Si9-51, to $12O, ,OOo.-
600 year, and in the next five, 1926,
to$lS3, ,750, 900, the highest points touched.
from which the yield has gradually de-
creased until it now stands at about
$100,000,O0O.
1t was estimated few years ago that
the expense of making good the wear
and tear of English gold currency amount
ed to little less than e., 100000, or
25,Oo0,000. On this basis the cost of
making good the wear and tear of the
gold currencies Of the world at the pres
ent time, and supplying the place OF that
used in the arts; must amount to $780,
100000 in god:;2tlat is to say, it requires
that sum every year OF new gold merely
to keep up the existing volume of those
currencies.
There are three principal sources of
supply-Australia, the United States and
the Ural Mountains. The production of
the last is estimated at $40, ,0OO, 900, the
United States at $35,0W,O0o, while the
average yield in Australia has fallen to
$37, 100000. As matters stand, and have
stood since. the war, in fact, the yield of
the three principal gold-producing coun-
tries is barely sufficient to replace
the wear and tear of existing
currencies. But each year the
population of the gold-using coun-
tries is rapidly growing, trade is
extending in all directions, and the mag
