THE GOVERNMENT BUILDING

The HERALD agrees with the members OF
the council who opposed the tender OF
ground as an inducement for Congress to
make an appro priation for a government
building in this city. Salt Lake has nc
land to spare-that is to say, none that
would be a suitable site for the proposed
building In truth, the city has been rather
generous than otherwise in the matter OF
giving away its public land. Union square
was donated to the territory for univer-
sity5 site; the Tenth ward square was
given to the Deseret Agricultural and
Manufacturing society for fair grounds
and buildings; large tract at the head
of State road, overlooking the city,
was given to the territory for a
capitol site. All the city has left,
aside from Liberty park, are Pioneer and
Washington squares. Let US retain these for
the public for whose comfort health and
pleasure they were set apart when the
city was laid out.
The government is much better able to
buy what it requires than Salt Lake city
is TO give. We don't elieve the tender OF
a site would carry with it the slightest
degree of influence in helping along the
appropriation. On the contrary, we are
inclined to think that Congress would look
upon the offer as evidence of deplorable
verdancy on the part of the community. AS
things go in this age, would not
the nations representatives look upon
the tender as indicating too much simple
ity on our part to be entrusted with an ex-
pensive government buildings
THE HERALD has little faith in the sue
cess of the appeal for the appropriation.
Congress has never been generously dis
posed towards the territories in the matter
of public buildings, and there are few who
will expect to find in Washington much
love for Utah or any great desire to help
US. However. it may be worth while to
ask for what we want, A refusal of our
request will cost us no more than it does
the government, and we can stand it,
just as we have stood it forty
years. But if we do anything, let
US do it manfully and courageously.
We don't want any "snide'' building, any
cheap malzeshift. Such structure would
not only be an eyesore, but would stand in
the way of an appropriation for a good
building when Utah shall have some poll tt
cal influence and can go to Congress as
other states go, with a demand that the
parties cannot afford to deny. Let US ask
for a million or two, and show why it
should be given, and then if we shall be re-
fused we will bein better condition than
if we requested two or three hundred
thousand and got it. The question of site
is one that will take care of itself.

EVIDENCES OF FEAR.

Apparently the Liberals have everything
their own way, as regards the municipal
election in February. At the Legislative
election last August the combined Liberal
vote in the city was thirty seven more than
the aggregate votes cast by the Peoples
party. This would indicate that the Lib
erals were in the majority, and that they
should be happy. But it is not all that
should give the leaders of the organization
Joy. Since the August election there has
been a great increase of population, and
it is generally supposed that 70 or so
per cent. of the new corners will train
with the Liberals. At any rate the Liber-
ais are claiming them, and therefore
should be happy.
And this is not all. For months past the
Liberal managers have been engaged in a
gigantic scheme of colonization. They have
had agents in the country and along the
lines of the various railroads, drumming
up men to come here for the purpose of
voting their ticket. An employment bu-
reau was opened in this city for the sole
purpose of providing work for these colo
nizers until the election. How many men
have thus been brought in and registered
cannot be told outside the Liberal head
quarters, but the number must run
into the hundreds, judging from
the industry displayed by the managers,
and the many countrymen one sees on the
streets wearing the Liberal badge,
And still another scheme has been
worked with more or less success The
mining camps and mining offices have been
visited, and the bosses and men have been
given to understand that all who will come
to the city for registration and afterwards
to vote, will be paid for the time lost and
their travelling and living expenses will be
refunded to them. Only the Liberal commit
tee can tell, and they are not likely to say,
how many miners have thus been registered
in Salt Lake, or how many of them will come

THE OFFER of the Hydraulic Canal COM
pany to repurchase from the municipal
corporation at the price paid whatever
rights the company sold to the city to a
portion of the water of Jordan river,
should either be accep ted by the council or
this talk that has been going on year or
so about corruption" and "steals' come
to an end The members of the canal
company evidently thought they had some
thing which they could sell, and they be-
lieve they sold it in good faith. Inasmuch
as the city got nothing for the money paid,
there have been some severe criticisms on
the action of the council, and the sellers of
the alleged water right have come in for a
share OF the ignorant censure. Whether
or not the city could obtain something for
it's money by ''going after" it with vigor
and determination, has not been demon
strated, the right to the water being de
MED and the denial being accepted as set
ting the matter. The canal people show
their honesty and good faith by offering to
return the money in exchange for deed to
what they sold, and the city should accept
the offer or there should be stop to the
mumbling and grumbling.

"JEFF DAVIS is dead but the nation still
lives" says the St. Joseph Herald. Is that
so. 1t is almost beyond belief that the
country should be alive. 1t seems as
though the old mans very existence was a
source of dread to the republic, according
to the Republican press. And yet in his
later years he was very feeble, had fore
gone politics, and only hoped to see his
race better and stronger than ever,
especially those who occupied American
soil The average Republican editor is a
wonderful combination of timorousness,
distrust and brutality, judging by his ut

THERE ARE a good many things in this
city, which may be truthfully denominated
as nuisances, and ore of them is the practice
of so many people of using the street cars
for halls in which to discuss religion and
politics. It's suggested that there are peo-
pie who do not care to listen to these ami
mated discussions and who are more or less
annoyed when two or three others get into
a quarrel over the merits and dement's of
each others religion and politics Several
complaints regarding this growing custom
have recently reached THE HERALD, hence
its reference to the matter.

What is known in history as the WAR

1741, and closed with the treaty signed
in 174S, which determined the right of
Maria Theresa to the Austrian throne in

claims is flimsy indeed. 1t is more likely
than otherwise the case that people will be
as good as their circumstances permit and
no worse than their circumstances re-
quire. To judge of them altogether by
either condition is apt to be a gross in
justice, either to the accuser or the &C

a fair and square view of people and
things as they are, leaving what they may
be or ought to be to the logic of events and

One OF the puzzllng tricks performed
BY so-cailed public mind readers OF
clairvoyants is an extremely simple de.
oeption. The performer standing on the
stage asks several persons In the audience
TO write each sentence on q slip OF
paper and seal II in an envelope. Of
courle the stationery is furnished and
afterward collected, One OF the audie
is confederate and writes a sentence
agreed upon beforehand. When the as
sistant goes through the house gathering
up the envelopes the confederate's contri-
buttons is carefully put where 1t will be
the last one OF the lot TO be taken up.
The performer picks out an envelope,
and, alter feeling II, with much care
moDy pronounces the sentence agreed
upon and the confederate in the audience
acknowledges that he wrote 1t. To con :
irm this the performer tears open the
envelope and repeats the sentence az
though he found II on the enclosed paper
which Ia In reality another mans SEN
tence, which be reads, and then, picking
up another envelope and iumbling II over
he calls out the sentence he has ust read.
The one who wrote It says 1t is right, the
performer tears open the envelope, reads
what is in 1t and proceeds in that way
through the lot.
