LER to the exalted position.
CRowDING OUT THE POOR.

A correspondent in this issue writes con-
corning the sale of the land on Capitol hill,
and makes the suggestion that only one lot
be sold to an individual or company. His
proposition is that the poor people-the
working classes, should be looked after in
the disposal of this tract, and he thinks
that if the spectators and boomers are not
held back they will buy up all the lots and
hold them for high prices-beyond the
reach of the laboring men. Our CORES
pondent is probably correct in his appre-
tensions. We can all see the direct ten
dency of the remarkable prices of real es-
tate The poor people cannot buy land
and build homes anywhere within the
central district of the city; they cannot
even afford to hold the homes they now
own They are now being driven back and
crowded out and richer men are coming to
the front, Selling the best and most desir-
able sites. This is the rule everywhere,
and we cannot expect an exception as re-
CARDS Salt Lake, however desirable it
would be to have this city retain its char
acteristic of being the home of poor people
and of poor people owning their homes
The HERALD fully realizes that if these
prices shall continue it will only be little
while before the poor man and the day
laborer who have taken pride in their little
homes, will be forced to sell and find dwell
ling places elsewhere. And yet we do not
see how this order of things can be
avoided; nor do we see how the city cor
poration can adopt the proposition Of our
in regard to limiting the
sales of lots. The law requires that the
and shall be sold to the highest bidder,
and the competition must necessarily be
open to everybody. If the real estate men
and the spectators bid more than others
the lots must be knocked down to them,
as we understand the law.

THE OGDEN SHOOTING.

Mr.. c. S. KING, editor of the Ogden
Union, in a recent number of that paper
gives his personal account of the shooting
ARRAY in which he was the victim and E.
w. EXUM the assailant 1t is or ought to be
generally understood that newspaper men
are more frequently the subjects of as
saults of various kinds than any other
class of people. Because their calling
necessarily requires them to be critics and
because at times those who are criticised
are dissatisfied herewith, the editor may
be said to live in the shadow of perpetual
menace. And yet he seldom shrinks
or lodges, but trips along as lightly and
cheerfully as possible with his life in his
hands, his limbs swathed in uncertainty
and his hopes nothing else) in his
pockets. He never goes armed, and there
fore the more cowardly are prone to the
use of weapons in prosecuting a personal
case against him, and those who make an
assault generally do better when they
make complete and thorough job of it at
the beginning.
And yet we fail to discover, even by
KINGS own statements, wherein he had
any justification for the publication of the
ExUM article We claim for the
class of people we have herein spoken
of a higher, more holy and more
honorable disposition and calling as
general thing than the publication of
statements which bring reputable people
into disrepute and cast gloom over re
spectacle households. upon mere hearsay.
1t is bad enough to publish and comment
adversely upon such things when their eX-
!stence has been demonstrated beyond a
reasonable doubt. If there be an excuse
for it then, it does not exist under any
other circumstances.
Nor is there great deal to be said in
favor of Mr.. EXUM. About all of it can be
expressed briefly: The man who, will not
defend the honor and fair fame of his
family when unjustly assailed is
not entitled to the respect Of his
fellows. The mistake made by him was as
to his remedy. This is not the age of bar
ba-ous chivalry and we have other engines
than deadly weapons for the settlement of
such or any grievances. A man may be
physically unable to visit condign punish
ment upon the transgressor, but he still
has the courts to aid him, and in exhausting
this method of defense, even though 1t
should result unsatisfactory, he still has
the comforting knowledge that he has vim
dicated his position ana set himself right
with mankind. This is not always big
enough plaster for the wound, we admit,
and with its application there will still re-
main more or less ranking; yet it is better
thus than to be placed in such position as
either of the parties to the Ogden shooting
scrape occupy.

BIGOTED OPPOSITION.

When the poor, forlorn and half demented
tyred President, offered some of her per
sonal wardrobe for sale, she was merci-
lessly and in some instances brutally as
sailed by the press. Not only did they con-
denim the transaction itself. but in many
instances rained torrents OF abuse upon
the widows head. 1t is peculiarly and
especially gratifying to know that all this
contumely and opprobrium came from the
northern press, which she had reason to
look to for comfort, that of the south gen
orally, in accordance with the more decent
and more chivalrous sentiment prevailing
there, merely mentioning the matter and
commenting upon it very lightly if at all
And the most sincere expressions of regret
regarding the brutal assassination of Mr.
LINCOLN came from the southern press and
the southern people, not only because they
recognized in him the best friend they had
within the union lines, but also for the
reason that they could not and would not
uphold such an act although professedly yet
mistakably done in their interest.
History repeats itself In the case of the
message of President HARRISON we do not
find expressions of approval to a great ex
tent coming from the Republican but rather
from the Democratic press. The local sheet
of thatpersuasionis especially denunciatory
of the document itself, and incidentally of
its author. All of which is no more than
what might be looked for. Good and even
just treatment does not come from men
The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1889-12-05

who are constantly stepped in bitterness
because of their blind and incessant advo-
cacy of the gospel of hate; we have to turn
for just and proper comment, on such oc-
casions, to honorable and upright oppon
ents, those who contest every inch of
ground with the adversary, but yet never
take an unfair advantage nor deliver an
unfair blow.
We shall all know more some day than
we know now, and it may be that with all
of US who are susceptible of Improvement,
the asperities acquired in life by reason OF
the sharpness and bitterness of conflicting
opinions will entirely disappear, and we
will esteem each other for innate and in
dividual merit without for moment con-
sidering the lesser and baser facts which
| constitute the case. But this will be when
we have physically and mentally advanced
beyond our present sphere, when, in short,
we have at least approximated to the condi-
ton of the angels. And even then those
who take such indicative and savage de-
light in bounding their fellows because of
differences of opinion, will not have under
gone much of a change. They will remain
where they are now. Their souls are inca
pable of expansion, and their mental facul-
ties cannot be so changed as to entertain
for moment the idea that anything not of
them and for them may be good or even not
bad. 1t takes all kinds of people to make
up a world, and therefore we must have
such as are herein spoken of; they are
more numerous than is consistent with the
greatest good to mankind, and yet they are
but fulfilling destiny.
THE HERALD has never entertained nor
professed any profound regard for the
principles entertained by the party which
elected Mr.. HARRISON to the Presidency,
and by the force of association has not at
all times, if at all, been greatly an admirer
of his excellency himself. 1t has even at
times criticised him and his immediate
surroundings with something approaching
vigor and determination; but it has not
found fault with him merely because his
views and his actions were not as we
thought they ought to- be, nor because Of
partisan opposition, but because we were
satisfied that his actions at such times and
those of his party were improper and not
for the best good of the largest number
We have ever been willing to extend to
him and his allies full credit for all they
did that was creditable-more, we have
done so. To become disgruntled and cap
tious and contemplate because all that is
desired is not forthcoming is the especial
and peculiar weakness Of our friends the
enemy.

GEORGE CHANDLER, Jr., published in the
T1ib,ne's list Of Sunday as eolonizer,
called on THE HERALD last evening to say
that the author of the list is calumniator
and falsitier so far as it relates to him.
He was born and raised in Salt Lake city,
has never left it but for short times, has
never given up his residence, and does no:
intend to do so. He was here before any OF
the carpet-bag gang came, and hopes to be
here when they are gone. One by one the

IT WAS great surprise which President
HARRISON gave to the country on Wednes-
day in the nomination of Judge DAVID j.
BREWER, of Kansas, to be associate Justice
of the Supreme court of the United States.
Everybody expected that Attorney General
MILLER would be lodged in the vacancy,
and it is doubtless true that that was
HARRIsoN's intention. There was loud
and earnest protest against the selection,
and the President has wisely changed his
mind. Judge BREWER seems to have a
a splendid record, and if what is said OF
him is true heis the right man for the
place. He at least comes from good stock,
his mother beinga member OF the bright
and brainy FIELD family. She is sister

The Philadelphia Times says
that one of the original fourteen
members of the Fourth Michigan
cavalry who captured Jeff. Davis
on May IA, 1866, in Elwell county
Georgia, is about to marry widow
lady, being himself a widower. His
name is Casper Knobel, and he is
a strapping Swiss who was born in
the Canton Berne in 1884. Mr..
Knoble displays the memorial med
al presented to him and his thir-
teen comrades for the great capture
which they made. In speaking of
the event he says that only one of
the captors is dead. Referring to
the manner in which the capture
was made, he says after two days
of hot search they overlook Mr..
Davis. He was in an ambulance
with his wife and children. Mr..
Knobel says that Mr.. Davis was not
arrayed il petticoats, as was so
much portrayed at the time, but in
a full gray suit of Confederate
general. He was greatly surprised
and took his capture very philo-
sophically. Knobel made a prize
of the Confederate Presidents shirt
collar, which he expects to wear at
his approaching wedding. The gov
eminent appropriated $500 to each
Of the captors, but Knobel says he
only received $500 and would like
very much to know who got the
balance.

A Thrilling Experience.

During the terrible gale and fires
that ragged in Dakota last week q
train from the east had terrible
experience about two miles east OF
Mount Vernon. The destructive
tire was raging at that point and
the dust and smoke made the sur
roundings as dark as night. The
engineer plunged the train into the
darkness, and the first thing he
knew he found the ties on fire for
nearly a mile ahead. He checked
the train, fearing to advance lest
lie should find no track ahead and
there in the suffocating smoke and
heat, with the blazing ties under
meath the train and the flames on
each side of the track, the crew
sought to extinguish the flames
and save the train. The passengers
became excited and pleaded to be
released from death by fire and
Suflocation, that seemed so near at
hand. For a time escape seemed
impossible and a number of the
passengers gave up all hope. Sew
eral ladies prayed aloud and all
faces were the picture Of fright nat
lral to mankind when death seems
TO be only few moments distant.
The train crew and passengers
worked heroically. Men bent for
ward gasping for breath, and felt
their way to the tender and found
water to dash on the burning
ties, while others went few feet
ahead of the engine to see whether
1t was safe to move ahead. Be-
hind the road was on fire as far
as the eye could see, while ahead
all was darkness and mystery, but
1t was death to linger in that cal
dron of fire, and when the surround
'ngs either meant moving or death,
an effort was worth the attempt,
and "a start was made. The sus-
pense and horror of the few mo-
1nents required to pass over the
turning track and through the ter
rible heat and smoke cannot be ex-
pressed, but the train finally pulled
out Of the flames to fresh air and
safety.
