limited in its work, and nothing could
be done with safety until decision as
to its validity was had. Thus two
months were lost Then, the atten-
ton of the Council has necessarily been
turned in so many directions that II
has been a practical impossibility to
make very rapid progress. Despite
these failures, however, there certainly
might have been made start in some
OF the work that has been laid out. 1t
is certainly not expected the extra
work to be accomplished will be done
without extra help. TIL, road up and
through City Greek Canyon might
now be in course of construc-
ton. The paving of the side
walk on South Temple SIRE ct, as already
ordered, might be undertaken. These
and some other things have been de-
termined on. They manifestly require
no further consideration. And the idle
who are now applying for work in many
quarters, might be employed and good
be accomplished in very many direc-
tons. The money involved is but
tri6e. The earnest of the disposition of
the Council to do work-and we frankly
state that their disposition is truly that
way-will be appreciated when some of
that decided upon is begun. There is
not apparentany good reason why there
should be longer delay.
1t is said the wealth of the Council is
opposed to the undertaking. of large
public Improvements, as these will entail
increased expenses, and the wealth
in the Council does not want any
higher taxation. 1t is barely possible
there may be some ground for this; but
it cannot be generally believed. There
are men in that body who a.: on hand
to support everything that is feasible
and which will help build up the city.
Despite much of the clap-trap talk
about Mayor Armstrong, he is, we will
wager, much better man for Salt Lake
City than any of those who decry them.
He is not cent per cent man. He is
a large property owner and it is taxed;
and nearly every dollar he has finds its
way into some business that gives en-
ployment to men who live by the no:
est sweat OF honest browe. He wants
his business to grow; and like others
he may not see eye to eye with all; but
the heart is in the City Council to do
much good, and it will be done. We
would, however, like to see little more
energy in the beginning of work thai
has already been decided upon.

A GREAT AMERICAN.

Grover Cleveland is, from one point
of view. the greatest man in America
to-day. He is great not because a
Democrat; not because of the position
he holds; not because of any opinion ell
tertained by him on the question of
tariff or any other subject. He would
be great as Republican and with b Oh
protective ideas. He is great for his
indo mitab'S will, his absolute and I'M
gu STONED honesty and his persistent
industry. His growth has been so
rail- as 10 give rise TO the talk
of fatality, ana those are not
wanting who LOCK upon him
as a man of destiny. Ten years
ago, he was unknown to tie vast NIL
lions that made up the populAti of
this country; to-day the one man
majority of the people of the United
States recognizes as alone pre-euinently
qualified to occupy the position o:
President of the greatest of rations.
he has had no failures inst as he has
had no fears. If it be true that his
faith in himself is complete. it would
be broader still did it reach the degree
of D srfect trust that millions Of this
nation have been compel ed to pace in
him.
When IN 4de Pre- ident he surrounded
himself with the Wis st men Uf MS par
ry. Known then only as the Governor
of New York, comparatively untrled
IN Dub ic work, be was, overshadowed
by the regulations of those VIII I'M his
Judgment called 10 assist him in the
tryIn ordeal. But ne rose, and in less
than three years was so far above his
cabinet that there Is net the slightest
inJimation of pow r behind Cleveland
which directs or controls him. His
helrt and judgment alone guide him.
1t is no secret that there are many of
his own party who. do not like him,
who would rather sac another
than he their President. But
all discontent and disafe ton were and
are still unavaiIing as against him. He
is. perhaps, not the best expounder OF
his party's principles. He is not bril-
liant man, nor a sophist, but his collos
al personal power, his wonderful force
is such that his party were left without
another to name fer the Office Of Presi-
dent. None others were to be
!
he stands to-day, alone. Friend
and foe, the enemies Of his own
house, together with those not of it
have been forced to recognize his
supremacy, b cause it is the supremacy
Of a man OF unimpeachsble homes y.
who loves principle better than the pc -
lev of parties and the prospect OF sue
cess.
There is much for pride to the Ameli-
can people in the election of such q
man. In day VIE political corrup-
ton is a recognized fact and unblush-
Iinely admitted, it is much to be able to
saw that even those who do not sympa-
thize with the President, concede that
in Grover Cleveland tie man is meyer
lost in the politician, and that his sense
of right is a stronger faculty than his
love for success. 1t is much that this
can be and is said, and will have its
weight among patriotic citizens in the
coming election.

Col. John R. Neal.

The people of the Third District
were fortunate in the choice of Gen.
Dibrell's successor in Congress when
the grand old man retired. Col. Neal
is now serving his second term.
Without any attempt at ostentation
or display, he has been faithful and
efficient since he first took his seat,
and has earned all the hOnors of duty
well performed He has had the
most assuring letters from many
parts of the District, evidencing
satisfaction with his record in Con-
gress, and asking him to again accept
nomination. Gratified beyond
measure and thankful for such kind
ly expressions, he some time since
determined to retire with the
expiration of the present term, and
cannot therefore in any sense be con-
sidered a candidate. Col. Neal will
lend every effort to the election of
the nominee, whoever he may be /;
but he is not a candidate and will not
be.-Athens Post.
We have fully understood the fact
all along that Col. Neal was not a
candidate, and did not desire another
nomination to Congress, but not
withstanding all of this, he is too
good Democrat not to respond to
the call of his party. Col. Neal will
make no effort whatever to secure
the nomination, but if it is rendered
him we feel fully assured that he
will accept it. And it will be a very
unwise action on the part Of the
Democratic Convention not to re-
nominate him. Many of the most
ardent admirers of the various
candidates for the position admit
that Mr.. Neal is the strongest man,
and with the narrow margin in this
district the Democrats can not afford
to take any chances of turning it over
to the Republicans by nominating a
new man Of uncertain and doubtful

tested during the convention was
over the nomination of Allen G.
Thurman for President. The
reserved lpotentialities of unuttered |
cheers, endearing and patriotic cpl
thets and red bandanas were mar
shalled as a very phalanx while the
deeds of the old Roman were told.
He was nominated, however, in a
very bungling and unsatisfactory
speech by Mr.. Tarpey, of California.
In the course of his remarks, after
having been caught up in several en-
barrassing pauses, Mr.. Tarpey said,
"There is only one man to nomi-
nate" and in his hesitancy after
this brilliant promise of something
fine, "Gray! Gray! Gray!" was
heard from all parts of the hall. In
short time, however, he recovered
from this explosion of his little
"boom" and finished his speech clev-
erly enough.
Mr., Patterson, of Colorado, made a
splendid impression for Black, Of Ill
inois, for the ce-Presidency, and
the friends of Gray, of Indiana, made
aovigorous fight for him for second
place on the ticket, but the Thurman
enthusiasm finally carried up in a
great shout the pledge of a unanimous
support from all the delegations.
Mrs. Z. A. Merriwether, delegate
from the International Council of
Women, held at Washington this
spring, was right royalty snubbed by
the audience because of her importu-
nate attempt to force the issue of wo-
mans suffrage as plank in the
Democratic platform. Her speech,
filled with the twaddle of inequality
in rights and of fair hands bound in
tyranny was a most contemplate
failure. H.ut
Thus for in the new campaign the
Democratic party has done faithfully
all that can be done. In its platform
is inculcated the highest principles
known to Democracy and the wisest
measures proven in a Republican
government. "Upon its record thus
exhibited and upon the pledge of a
continuance for the people Of the
benefits of good government the Ma
tional Democracy wishes a renewal
of popular trust by the selection of a
chief magistrate who has been faith
full, able and prudent"
Cleveland has held an unique place
in the hearts Of the American people.
The long period of Republican do
minion had so bent and stiffened the
public mind into an easy satisfaction
on all matters of policy that the re-
forms which he has lnaugurated in
national affairs come almost as reve-
lations of a new life or epochs in a
history strange and unfamiliar. The
impetus that the Democratic party
will gain from his second administra-
ton should he again be elected can
scarcely be calculated. Then the
wise revision of existing political
conditions which he has so earnestly
contemplated will materialize into
healthful and effective measures for
lifting the standard of national adj
ministration and for fulfilling the
high claims of pure and progressive
Democracy. ..... EDGAR M.
