thing about politics, which l hope will

without having to climb over the fence.
Mrs. Caigh, looking over my shoulder,
suggests that l confine my remarks to

Well, we have had a Democratic
convention in Salt Lake. and in COM
pany with thirty.one others, not count

It was announced as "mass conven-
tion," but what the mass con sisted of
has not yet been disclosed. There was
a chairman, secretary and some
speeches. the latter being in most in
stances as resonant, careful and sys-
tematic as though there had been an

viously been announced that "Mor-
mons IN good standing not being DEM

generally sensible people, who are not
addicted TO going where they
are not wanted or invited. the
-otification was generally observed.
Towards the last, however, one
Mormon of my acquaintance who went
through curiosity more than anything

RIGHT, AFTER ALL.

We take it the heart of the human
race is right, after all. When an audi
ence will ring olt its sympathy and
show the response that lives in the
heart Of man for man, as it did ii
Saints and Sinners a night or two ago,
it does not look as though we had gone
far wrong-not go far, at any rate, that
the sincerity Of distress may not call us
to that brotherhood which says we are
all of one flesh. Let the bigoted rave
and the hardened heart of a dying
Christianity vent its spleen, there is
still well of Gods goodness in us all
and modern ingenuity has discovered
no surer way of bringing it to the sur
face than by the presentation of such
dramas as Saints and Sinners. per-
trayed by such company as brought
the tears to all eyes on Thursday night
last. The lessons that life is designed
to teach are brought home to us with
truth that leave words feeble in the
comparison. And we wipe our eyes;
we rise and go home animated with
noble resolves. the whole being thrilling
with a love and forgiveness that mas no
bounds. Alb, mol 1t is rot all unwis-
dom, t1is worship of the stage.

HITTING HIMSELF.

When James G. Blaine wrote arc
published his Twenty Years in Con-
gress," be did not look ahead to the
present campaign. nor see what tie
issue would be. In 1857 Congress passed
a law reducing the tariff of 1916 about
20 per cent, and greatly extending the
free list. This was done because sur
plus was accommodating in the Treasury.
Speaking of the act in his book Blaine
says:
By this law the duties were placed lower
than they had been at any time since the
war Of 1872. The act was well received by
the people. and was indeed coucurred in by
a considerable proportion of the Republi-
can party. Mr. Seward voted against it, but
his colleague, Hamilton Fish. voted for it..
Mr.. Sumner and Mr.. Wilson b9t1 voted for
it. as did also Senator Allen, of Rhode
Island, and the direct representative of the
manufacturers of that State.
In the House the New England Repre-
sen.atives generally vote for the bill.
1t was an extraordinary political
combination that brous hit the Senators from
Massachusetts, and the Senators from South
Carolius, the Representatives from New
England and from the cotton states, to sup
If the man from Maine had known
what the issue would have been in 1888,
he would have left the account of the
above incident out of his book, for it
makes it awkward for him to have
to face truths of this kind in his
present attitude and the attitude of his
party. The act of 1857 made a reduc-
ton of 90 per cent, while the Mills bill
proposes a reduction of only 7 per
cent.
1t may be added, because it is fact,
that the tariff reduction in 1857 was fol-
lowed by higher wages and by increased
business among manufacturers. The
"times' were better generally up to the
breaking out of the war, when CONNER
cial and industrial laws were set aside
for those of expediency. Democrats
hold that the result would be a general
improvement of business, and greater
prosperity, were the final war tariff re-
duced to the necessities of the govern =
ment; and the claim is warranted by
what has followed a decrease of the
tariff on every OCCASION.

THE SPELLING COMPETITION.

With reference TO the spelling compe-
tltion which is to take place in connec-
ton with the forthcoming Territorial
Fair, the query has arisen in the minds
of many intending contestants as to
how the competition is to be con-
Quoted. A HERALD correspondent sug-
gests that the spelling bee" system
would not afford fair test of the
ability of the competitors. and recon-
meuds that the examination be con-
ducted in writing, that is, the person
conducting the competition shall call
off the words to be spelled, allowing the
contestants, seated at table or desks,
a specified time-say fifteen o. thirty
seconds-to write each word, and let il
he understood that the person who has
+hefeWest errors IN the whole number
of words given shall be the winner of
the prize. 1t is possible, however, upon
examination of the papers submitted
that several of the competitors will be
fouud to be equal. This, Of course
vould necessarily call for continue
ton of the competition until the final
result is reached.

THE EDUCATORS.

1t is a noteworthy fact that the
college professors of this country are
almost unanimous in their opposition
to a protective tariff. These learned
men, with remarkably few exceptions,
have been and are doing their utmost
to teach the people the fallacy of the
doctrine that high and unnece ssary
taxation teads to the enriching of a
country or of the individuals who pay
the taxes. These Professors do not
study the question and write upon it
with reference to the advantage or
success of any political party, but for
principles safe, hence their though S
are worthy of greater consideration
than are the assertions of the parlisans
and the politicians.
a Chicago firm has just published Q
little volume entitled 1.-The National
Revenue" which consists of sixteen
essays by as many college professors of
political economy. In the entire num-
Der there is not one who advocates the
principle of protection, and fourteen
are outspoken against that doctrine.
All favor a tariff for revenue, and all
look upon the present schedule of
duties as scheme not in the interest
of the workingmen and the masses, but
of manufacturers who are the only
ones who derive the benefit. Pro-

ONE DOLLAR.A DAY.


When Editor New, of Indianapolis,
offered reward of 81 900 for proof that
General Harrison ever said that Isl q
day was enough for Nottingham" he
showed that he was good buffer, but
not clever politician. Many individ-
usls put in claims for the money, al
leging that they heard Harrison make
the declaration, but New withheld the
cash, saying that the applicants word
was no proof. Then Edwin f. Gould,
secretary of Lodge 106, K. of L., put in
al apple alton fer the money on behalf
of the Lodge, many of the members of
which heard the dollar-a-day statement.
Still New clutched the coin, and threat
ened to prosecute the men who said
they heard Harrison make the as ser
ton. However, the blustaring editor
said that if a reliable man would make
! an affidavit he would pay the money.
Last week enc John G. Schwartz, c.
Brightwood, Ind, made the necessary
affidavit. He swore that he was en-
ployed by the Cleveland, Columbus,
Cincinnati & indianapolis Railway
in July, 1877 that he went on a strike
July 10, 1877, for increased wages; that
he was present at the conference meeting
il the old council chamber held during
the strike, where Benjamin Harrison
and other prominent citizens spoke
with reference to the strike; that he
heard Benjamin Harrison say that the
strikers we're law breakers, that they
ought to return to work; that the rail-
roads could not afford to p y higher
wages; that 81 per day was enough for
any workingman; that he himself
could live on that amount; and that
Benjamin Harrison further said that il
the men did not return to work, tn q
militia should be brought into service
and the men forced to return. But
Mr.. Schwartz has not got the reward,
and the editor goes on denying that
Harrison ever said any such thing that
a dollar a day was enough for work
ingman. The country is pretty well
convinced by this time that the Repub'
lican candidate did make the state
ment, and is also convinced that John
c. New is good deal of humbug.

"NCTHING TO EACH OTHER HEREAFTER"
The morning Of the Fourth came at last,
though half the male children Of Lafayette
doubted that IL ever would. Citizens OF the
surrounding country chased the sun into the
town. Young and old they came, deter
mined that nothing 30 fantastic not to say
demoninc, as n balloon should leave the earth
without their seeing It. All went to look at
the irreligious thing ns II lay limp mass IN
the court house yard, guarded by tho pro
fessionnl ooronaut, and lowered over by
swarns Of boys.
How exciting was the business Of initiating
It. Every other attraction lost interest as
tho work went on. Drinking glasses grow
dry as powderhorns OH the lemonade stands.
The dealers I'm ginger bread and early apple
pics rccklessly left their posts IN subordinate
hands and drew near tho throng Of patriotic
humanity which surrounded the court house
yard like a broad and breathing wall
Tho balloon, fastened to It's guy ropes, and

impatient animal. anxious TO DO of. At

tho hands Of stnlwart patriots, five and six
70 each rope. Then the professional balloon
ist who bad ''bossed tho Job" addressed the
breathless populace in the feelinglcss and
penetrating voice Of a ring master.
Harper Clelland then stepped ont from a
group Of interested assistants, nodded right
and left 10 his friends, gracefully touched his
hat TO the people and sprang into tho bal
looms basket.
