HAVE THEY FORGOTTEN

Have republicans who denounce a
proposed reduction of the tariff from
AZ to AZ per cent forgotten all about
their own tariff bill of 1857. That bill
reduced the tariff of 1877 nearly 20 per
cent and largely increased the free list.
La ms history Mr.. Blaine says of The
tariff OF IS57:-"'By this law the duties
were placed lower than they had been
1T any time since the war of 1912. The
act was well received by the people and
was indeed concurred in by a consider
able portion of the republican party"
Aud now All average reduction OF but
5 per cent. is blue ruin.

BEFORE Tue COMMITTEES.

twas big day for 9TH in Washing
ton, yesterday, the Senate committee
on Territories giving our representa-
tives and the advocates Of Statehood
full and fair hearing. The Associated
Press also, has been unusually enter
prising and liberal, il obtalLlng and
sending to the country somewhat
lengthy auG comprehensive SYNOPSIS OF
the arguments presented. 1t seems that
both Democrats and Republicans in the
committee did not take kindly TO the
clause III the Constitution making II
prohibition against polygamy perpetual
except by the consent OF the President
and Congress Of the United States. Ii
was not thought right that government
should impose any such rtqulreme Mt.
thougn il was Admitted that the Ubliga-
ton would be binding, AID that The
United States could require its fulfill
ment. Ans point having been con-
coded. the object of those who
formulated anu those who ratified
the Consultation is attained. These
have declared that they were honest
and sincere in their assertion against
the continuance Of polygamv, and as
Pn earnest of their sincerity put into
the fundamental law the clause which
thew assumed would bind tDem. We
doubt that there is any intelligent per
son in Utah, Mormon or Gen
,e, poIygamist or anti-pOlygamis'
VINO likes 10 see that clause, CT
the one ii ref renee to bigamy and po-
lygamy, in the Constitution. No ole
likes to see them there any better than
he wOuld like TO see in the ins:1C-
Inent similar references to and prohlbi-
tons against oghe, offenses; but al re-
alize that the turbiddIng of this offense
was required and demanded by Con
gress and the country, hence the legIs-
lation in the Constitution instei d Of in
tie statute books.
Of course II is impossible to say what
effect the arguments will have upon the
committee, rs it is to even intelligently
guess as TO the action that Will be taken.
These are matters of which we can only
learn as they shall develop. The peo-
pie will be pleased to learn that their
representatives have made an able and
truthful presentation of the case.

A SCANDALOUs TELEG RAM.

The following is the copy of tele-
gram sent from this city to Chicago on
the 1lth, and from that city was for
warded to New York and other cities as
an Associated Press telegram. The
author evidently intends to apply for
the local agency of tne Ass. Press, and
is qualifying himself for the position.
In this latter respect he is making
rapid progress, as his partisanship and
the Ilbelous character of his telegram
indicates. We publish the dispatch

constitutional. He thinks then that |
prohibitory legislation will follow, and
there will be an end to liquor selling.
1t is highly probable that Mr.. Gatchell
will fail, If for no other reason than the
fact that the regulation of the matter is
one of those things left to the States
and with which the United States will
not interfere. But suppose the suits
were to succeed and license laws were
declared unconstitutional, would it not
be appropriate to change the name OF
the association to the National Nuisance
League? 1t may be a highly
creditable sen timent which pu's
into the books laws forbidding
the sale Ct intoxicating liquors and
assumes that there is no intemperance
because it is unlawful to sell rum,
though drunken men are reeling
through the streets. 1t is a better
sentiment, however. which takes cogn-
izance of things as they are and not as
we would like to have them. Ii prohl
bition were possible, or if it would
materially lessen the evil of intemper-
ance, we believe the maiority OF the
people of the United States would favor
prohibitory laws: but experience every
where has taught that intemp' rance
is neither suppressed nor materially
diminished by laws which forbid the
sale of intoxicanIs, no matter how
earnestly aud honestly officials en-
deavor to enforce the statutes, The
experience of Utah is the best test of
the effectiveness of prohibltory statutes.
High license mas done more for the
cause of temperance than all the pro-
hibitory enactments. 1t has made 1t
possible for the authorities 10 exercise
more or less control over the business,
and has compelled those who drink
liquor to pay to the public the money
required TO care for them and to pro-
tect society against them.

trouble Among the Sports.

Some time ago George Barr leased the
rooms over his saloon to William LAWN.
and other sportin; men for club rooms.
Recently Mr.. LAWN disposed of his in
terest in the premises and business,
and notified the sports that they must
vacate. when the latter claimed that
their lease had not expired. and refused
TO leave. For the past few days,
they have been guarding the rooms,
and prevented Mr.. Barr from entering
until yesterday morning, when the
latter sole march on the sports, and
succeeded in obtaining possession of tue
roorns, which be Immediately locked
up. The sports were very Indignant at
this, and last night 1t looked as though
a big row was inevitable. but the mat
ter was smoothed over for the time at
least.

THE Los ANGELES BOOM.

All the bottom there is left in the
Los Angeles boom is fast falling out
Prices of real estate have teen falling
for the past three months, and at the
speed ttey are travelling downward,
they will not be long in reaching a
proper level. A private letter says that
the aggregate decrease in asked value
during sixty days is fully 40 per cent
Options are permitted to lapse, in some
instances large sums being forfeited.
It is no uncommon circumstance for
buyer to lose $4,000 which he has paid
on al option rather than pay an
oth9r $4,000 to complete the purchase.
Suburban property and farms aud
orchards which had been plated as
towns and additions, with gas, wate-
and sewer pipes laid, and sidewalks
constructed, have reverted to the orig
inal owners, and the land is baing
plowed and seeded as before the days OF
the boom. Thousands of lots are ad-
yertised for sale by the tax collector.
and many of them will not fetch enough
to pay the taxes and the costs of collec-
ton. A desperate effort is being put
forth to revive the dying boom. The
people realize that if the excitement and
craze cannot be kept up little longer
many will be ruined, and the great
wreck will more or less affect every
body. The plain truth is, Los Angeles
has overdone the boom business. The
climat, and the soil have both beer
worked for good deal mora than they
were worth, and the consequence i!
lust what every cool-headed, observing
person knew it must be-a collapse. The
craze had its time to run, and when tina
was over, and eastern tenderfee
could collect their senses and give the,l
intelligence chance, the crash would
necessarily come 1t could not b.

Lay SIDEWALKS.

When the next assessment roll OF city
property is being made, it would be well
for the assessor to take cognizance Ct
the enormous offe.s recently made for
certain pieces OF properly, and which
offers have been rejected. The owners
will probably be the most surprised and
wrathful of men If their property is as
sessed at the figure refused by them for
it.
A man who refuses to sell property
that would be improved and its taxable
value increased thereby, and which will
not be improved in the present owners
hands, is not friend to the city. He is
WORKING against its interests. 1t may
be his refusal will drive that amount OF
money out of the city, tor it is often the
case that men will take nothing if they
do not get exactly that which they
think desirable.
Take piece of property having few
rods fir ontage, tor which $50 00J, $50 600
or 500 600 is offered. 1t is unimproved.
Can not that property. which is
probably assessed ct 5000 SIC, 600 or
$l2 600, affJrd to put down a decent
sidewalk for the benefit of pedestrians?
A person who can hold 500 0O0 worth
OF unimproved property assureily can
afford to put down a good sidewalk,
since be keeps his neighbors and the
city from the benefits that are to be
derived from The possession Of valuable
land by one who would improve it
AMI increase its usefulness to citizens
generally and the corporation itself.
One gentleman living on South
Temple Street east of the Eagle Gate, is
anxious that the city should levy tax
ON property owners along that street for
gooo Sidewalk for at least one mile out.
Nay. he says he is willing to share the
burden of half the tax to place an
asphaltum road on the north side of the
street for the length of his frontage. if
the city will put up the other half, and
If other property owners will do the
same thing. This is he progressive
spirit, an" that man would make
noncy if the city complied with his
request. The value OF his property
would be doubled.
Omaha never knew what boom"
meant until she began TO pave her
sire It's.
ltwould be a good time for Salt Lake
to begin putting down sidewalks in the
central part of the city. The astonish-
ing increase in values in real estate has
made many holders rich. They can
afford a good sidewalk out of their new
found and unworked for wealth. Ii
they cannot, they are unwise to hold
on-the taxes must be increased and it
would be we'll to let go the increase
value before it is eaten up with local
and general taxes.
There can be no reasonable excuse
for further delay by the city in begin
ming the work of putting down gooC
sidewalks in given localities. LAND
values have increased enormously, anc
the best way to keep up the advance is tc
make Improvements and force those
lacking public spirit and enterprise te
share their new found, unexpected ano
often unGeserved wealth with the
public-that the needy may be en-
plo ed. the city improved and they
themselves unwillingiy be re-enriched.
