FINDING IT'S LEVEL.

The evening organ of the Liberal party
which, in its earlier career promised to be
a just and truthful paper, now comes to the
front as an extremist 1t has had much to
say in criticism of the bitter course of
the Tribune, has announced itself as the
apostle of the idea that "bygones are by
gones," as the representative of the new
element in the population Of the city who
desired harmony and whose souls are not
fired with anti Mormonism. Politics is fast
changing the complexion of this sheet.
The other day it printed the following
statement concerning the Peoples party
meetings, to which all are cordially invited
and whose presence even is solicited, with
the aid of such music as has been available

promptly fired out of the door on being

they are doing"

in Idaho, thousands of law abiding citi-

| that the liberal party did favor the Idaho

been accused of desiring this, they have
invariably said that the Tribune, in express

bitterness of the hearts of few apostates

BAsKIN, and have denied that any substan-
tlal percentage Of the Liberal party favored
Acknowledgement. These denials, in many
instances, were made with the purpose of
allaying Mormon fears and of distracting

A INDUSTRIOUS PROPOSITION.

Governor FIFER, of Illinois, recently said
in speech that the country would be just
as rich if every cent of the surplus was
paid out to old soldiers. In general sort
of way this is doubtless correct, since the
payments would not be to parties outside
of the country and the treasury disburse-
ments would therefore remain with us
after they had temporarily changed hands.
The same thing might be said of a PROPOSE
ton to provide every head of family with
comfortable home, well furnished, and
every one of his children with clothing and
an education. There are any number of
people who would be in favor of such a
scheme, and yet it can hardly be said that
it would be in accordance with our system
of government.
The correct plan to pursue has often been
stated with great elaboration Of plan and
detail by wise and capable statesmen, but
by none of them so effectively or concisely
as by GROVER CLEVELAND when he SAID
that the people must support the govern
ment, the government is not presumed to
support the people. This is a paternal
government in one sense only-that 1t eX-
US1uS pTOloCGlOu anu cHCOuI dSCAhSHI w ASS
citizens. Because men fight for it, it is
not to be presumed that they are ever after
to be maintained by it, for one reason, II
there were no others, that they fought as
much for their own welfare as for that OF
other people, all comprising the govern
ment. Without stability, the soldiers and
ex-soldiers would have no substantial ben
efits, and hence the necessity of fighting,
for nothing if need be, to maintain it.
But is it not little surprising that ''prl-
vate JoE,' such an intensely loyal and pat
riotic citizen, should be willing to place
himself upon the record in such a manner!
Does he think that he is gaining hold
on the soldier vote thereby! If he does, he
is doubtless laboring under a delusion, for
the reason that all soldiers are not beggars
or paupers, nor are the majority of them
willing to accept of such benetices as men
of the FIFER, FORAKER and DALzELL stripe
would thrust upon them; it would be
equivalent to disrobing them of every yes
tige of patriotic purpose, since by paying
them in full in coin of the realm there
would no longer be any claim for or on &C
count of anything whatever; patriotism
would no longer be visible.
Governor FIFER, in the course of year
or so. perhaps less, will doubtless be saying
that he was misunderstood on this propo
sition; let's watch him and see.

THIS IS the birthday of the great general
of Germany, MoLTKE, who began life with
the century, having been born at Parchim,
Mecklenburg October &c, 1900. He is one
of the greatest soldiers the world has ever
produced, andmuch of the brilliant achieve.
ment of the German army is due to him. In
1856, MoLTKE was maior-general, and three
years later acknowledgement of the
German forces, standing next to the
Emperor in point of military rank. twas

suited in the decisive victory of Sadowa

SURE ENOUGH, THIS TINE.

Bishop SHARP brings some good news from
Boston. True, it is little late, but it is a
good deal better than never. We refer to
the information which he gives that at the
recent meeting in Boston the directors
adopted a resolution to proceed with the
Utah Central in the direction of California,
work to be commenced at once. Two hun
bred miles will be built now, which will
carry the line to Frieburg, Nevada, via
Phoebe, and thus open what is supposed to
be a rich mineral district, embracing sew
eral productive camps. People out this
way had almost given over thinking about
the extension, and their surprise will be as
great as their pleasure when they learn
that the rails have actually been ordered
and that the promise on this occasion really
means performance.
This extension means much for Salt Lake
and Utah, as well as for the railway com
pany. The district penetrated will neces-
sarily become prominent as an ore producer,
and will be populated by thousands of
hardy miners. The supplies for them will
be largely drawn from this territory, while
the ores must come here for reduction. To
the railroad it means the making profitable
of long line which for years has been
operated at loss. THE HERALD believes
that no section of the Union Pacific system
of equal length will be more remunerative
than the line between Salt Lake and Erie
burg.
Now that the Union Pacific has made a
start, we may confidently expect there will
be nc stop until tide water has been
reached. The situation will compel a
going ahead as fast as possible. In little
while, long before the q. P. can get well
started on the extension, the Central Pa
cific trains will be running through TO Den
yer. and so on to Omaha and Chicago, car
rying freight and passengers which have
heretofore been transferred at Ogden.
Traffic which has gone to the Union Pacific
at Omaha or Denver will, in the course of
a few weeks, be diverted to another line,
and the U. P. will find itself running trains
to Ogden largely for business which
arises and ends at that point. 1t will then
understand the necessity of having
through line of its own, of being indepen-
dent and in a position to compete for the
trade which rightfully belongs to it.

THE WASHINGTON correspondents having
run out of matarial for lively newspaper
articles are revising the story of last win
ter regarding a GOODNESS between Mrs.
H HARRISON and Mrs BLAINE, and some OF
them are adding to it by alleging that a
break in formal social relations has oc-
Cured 1t is asserted that the wife Of the
secretary of state offered to coach the
first lady of the land, -" the latter not being
imperious enough to suit Mrs. BLAINE.
Mrs. HARRISON is quiet home body, who
dislikes ostentation, and is not at all given
to what fashion calls style. She likes to
be a nice, plain American lady, always
courteous and polite and never naughty.
The result of Mrs. BLAINE's proposal to
instruct the Presidents wife in the matter
of society is said to have been a
dignified declination on the part OF
Mrs. HARRISON, hence the GOODNESS.
This is the story as it is related by the re-
porters 1t is probable that journalistic
imagination has supplied all the facts, and
that the two ladies are as cordial and
friendly as they were last winter when it
was widely published that Mr.. BLAINE
would not be taken into the cabinet because
Mrs BLAINE had once snubbed Mrs. HAIR
RIsoN and the latter would not consent to
be placed in position where she would be
compelled to be on friendly social rela-
tions with the lady who had treated her
contemptuously. Then it was shown that
the ladies were on the best of terms, and
that nothing had ever occurred to make it
otherwise; and now we presume they
take their knitting over to each others
houses and enjoy themselves while the
newspapers are dishing up their imaginary
quarrels. The newspaper correspondent
is frequently more unreliable than Re
publican editor during political cam
paign.

companies to reimburse them for their
losses.
The scheme worked. The calls for pay
ments began to come in, and he quickly
responded. Owing. however, to the slow
progress made in transportation in those
days. before his companies had been drawn
upon to an embarrassing degree New York
property-holders hasteued to insure at the
offices of the two Hartford companies
which were keeping good their word. and
money was thus made easy and plenty with
them. The premiums from New York alone
were more thar sufficient to meet the losses
in the city by the Hartford companies, and
this gave the insurance business a grand
boom. the effects of which have been in
creased every year.

those days Hartford could boast of but
three small fire insurance companies,
and they all had very heavy risks
in New York. The capital of neither
was over 100000. and in two of these the
full amount had not been fully paid in.
On Dec. 10. 1855, a bitter cold day, when
the old mail coach came rolling into that
city, ii brought the news of the great fire in
New York. There was an expression of
sadness and anxiety on the face of every
insurance man. for complete ruin seemed
inevitable. Eliphalet Terry was the man
with the stamina born in him to battle
with such emergencies. He was president
of one of the Hartford companies, and o
