and others, and these latter ladies were
not dispIeased when during the cam
paign of 1884 the lady from Maine was
scandalized. It was not undel stood,
however, that Mrs. Harrison had spec
isl cause for not liking Mrs. Blaine. A
Chicago paper has telegram from St.
Paul, recording Colonel Rockwell as
saying that Blaine would GER
tainly not get a place in the
Cabinet. 1t will be remembered
that Rockwell was lord high chamber

less distinguished women than Mrs.
Blaine and Mrs. Harrison. When
Blaine was Secretary of State I was

DEMOCRATIC UNWIsDoM.

Delegate Voorhees,, the brilliant young
Democrat of Washington Territory, also
arraigned his party in the House fer
its refusal to listen to the righteous
appeals of his Territory for release from
political slavery. He told the Demo-
Gratis that their apathy in the matter
had called forth popular resentment in
the form of an overwhelming Repub-
lican majority at the late election.
When these truths are fired at the
Democratic leaders who are responsible
for the injustice practiced upon the
Territories, they must feel that they
have been mean or were lacking in
political wisdom. For four years THE
HERALD has been pleading with the
party to save Washington and Montana
to the Democracy, by admitting them
to the Union; and we have INCREASINGLY
warned the Democrats that unless they
needed the just appeals of these colonies
for emancipation, they would drive
them into the Republican ranks. We
do not refer to this now for the pur-
pose of crying II told you so;"
but to warn the Democrats in
the House that they are driving
another Democratic Territory, the last
but one that holds with the party. over
to the enemy. Unless the Democrats
IN this Congress manifest an honest,
earnest disposition and willingness to
admit New Mexico to the Union
the Territory will as certainly be
carried by the Republicans at the gen
eraI election in 1890, as the sun will
rise this morning. Men nay call the
people Of New Mexico ignorant "GreaS-
ers" and uneducated, and Representa-
tives in Congress may say as is being
done all the time, that the New Mexi-
cans are not prepared to be entrusted
with self-governmeat; but ignorant
and uneducated as these people are
they know their friends, they can tell
when they are imposed upon, and they
will retaliate when an injury is done
them.
The unwiadom that has character
lied the Democratic conduct IN regard
to the Territories is bearing bitter
fruit, but the harvest is just what
might have been expected. More of
that same unwisdom will be attended
by equally ugly consequences.

THE DECISION of the Supreme Court
of this Territory delivered Yesterday IN
the habeas corpus case of Mr.. HenG-
ricks appears to be opposed 10 good
law. The lady was imprisoned in the
Penitentiary for contempt in not
answering question put to her by the
Grand Jury in the First District. After
stating that she was the lawful wife of
John Hendrickson, and that no other
woman was present at her marriage
ceremony, she declined to state whether
or not the defendant was married to an
other woman on the day of that cere-
mony, claiming her privilege, under the
Edmunds-Tuckera act, of not being COM
PEELED to testify without her consent.
It is claimed on behalf of the petitioner
that it was the duty of the court to
determine the question and that the
decision of Judge Henderson compelling
her to submit to the judgment of the
Grand Jury onEa question of COM
potency was without precedent. We
understand that it is almost the una
ninous opinion of the bar that the
Court has erred in this matter and will
be overruled at Washington.

IN BAD TASTE.

at is absolutely without foundation,
and is one of those Infamous Ibels for
which a portion of the American press
is unfortunately so notorious, and
which in this country (England)
would subject the writer to heightened
term of imprisonment" Very few
Englishmen were ever treated with
more courtesy and consideration than
were shown to Mr.. Joseph Cham berlain
by the American papers. He shows
his appreciation and ill-breeding in the
above slanderous attack, the words
quoted being his. 1t came about in this
way: An Englishman named Mausch
fed from England with young girl,
and upon their arrival at Castle Garden
the girl was taken away from him and
sent back. Mausch said that his wife
had been bought from him for $1,000, the
purchaser being a son of the statesman
Mr.. Joseph Chamberlain. As selling
wives in this country was not likely to
prove profitable business, and being
without money Msusch killed himself
which was a very proper thing for him
to do. Some one addressed letter to
Chamberlain concerning the story, and
his reply is quoted above.
It is doubtless a fact that there are
newspapers in America which publish
infamous libels," but they are 80 fsw
in number that nobody has a right to
refer to them as q part of the American
press. A newspaper in this country
which publishes infamous libels" is
execrated by the press generally, and
has no standing as reputable journal.
In his expression above noted Mr..
Chamberlain has libeled the American
press which Is cleaner, more reputable
and more careful of individual rights
than the newspapers of any other coun-
try which pretsuds to have free press.
But, isn't it a little irregular that while
old man Chamberlain undertakes to
defend his family honor by brutally as
sailing American newspapers, the
young man Chamberlain remains dis
creetly silent? 1t would be easy enough
for the son to say whether or not hs
had been UNANIMOUSLY lbeled," and he
should know fully as much about it as
the old man.

GOOD WILL RESULT.

In so far as it will have any effect on
the Utah Statehood question, the hear
ing now going on by the House COM
mittee on Territories is waste of time
and words. The determination is not
to admit Utah to the Union just now.
Facts, figures and appeals will not avail
against this conclusion. We don't care
what showing may be made, this Con-
gress will do nothing looking to the ad-
mission of the Territory. The Senate
settled that a year ago, and the Demo-
cratic caucus last December emphasized
the Senate's decision when it voted to
exclude Utah from the omnibus bill
with which the House is playing. The
only explanation that we can find for
the present hearing is that the CON-
mittee had nothing to do, and wanting
to display some in lustry, concluded it
might put N a few days listening 10
talk about Utah.
But while the Statehood matter will
not be affected in the least, it is be-
lieved good may come from the hear
ing. The committee certainly, and the
country probably, will learn more than
they ever knew concerning the nature
of the war that is being waged against
the Utah community. 1t seems to US
that it could not have been known
generally that the governor of the Ter
ritory was its very worst enemy, doing
all in his power, and all the time en-
ploying his personal and official in
huence TO bring annoyance and trouble
upon the people. The fact has now
been made plain, the exposure of the
true character of His Excellency being
complete AS one after another of his
infamous ISLANDERS we're shown up, he
had to sit there and listen, the COM
mittee men noting what daspicable
creature he was, and how Vi
ciously he was performing the
duties af his high Office. AS the aft
dayits were read specifically giving the
lie to Vests statements, the committee
could not have but thought that the
people of Utah we're entitled to more
consideration and commiseration than
had been accorded them.
In this way the hearing will result in
good. To hare Congress and the coun-
try enlightened as to the character OF
the men and their motives, who are
assaiIing Utah with a venom inspired
by greed and hate, will prove beneficial,
though it may not help the Territory
into the Union.

POWER IN sULLIVAN's ELBOW
He Breaks the RecOad for Bag
Punching.

New York Press.
This bag, which is an inflated foot
bali suspended from the ceiling, is one
of the most important factors of the
gymnasium, affording, as it does, an
opportunity to test ones hitting
power, agility and stamina. Many
athletes have delivered sounding
thwacks upon it, but the strongest of
them have been unable to make the
bail hit the ceiling more than twice
known to S ullivan, who said: ''Well, I
can make it go more than twice." and
he did.
Standing firmly within hitting dis
lance of the ball the champion sent out
his left fist like catapult, and the air
filed bag shot to the ceiling. Back it
bounded to the other side, then quickly
returned. Then for the third time it
struck its objective point, and Sullivan
smiled.

echoed Barnitt and Bob Paterson in
chorus. THAT'S dandy" said Oakley
Kerker, and Sullivan smiled again.
''Why," said he, Il can make it go five
times with a right-hand smash" And
when asked to try he consented.
Again he stood before the bag, and
with a terrific blow with the fist that
has put SO many men to sleep, sent the
egg-shaped object flying toward the
ceiling. But it did not go five times, nor
four, nor three. 1t fell lifeIess after
the contact. The force with which
it had been driven. had shattered the
plaster, and laid bare the laths above.
Another trial in another direction
proved more successful, however, the
ball hitting the ceiling FIVE times before
its momentum ceased, or three times
more than any previous record.

BASE BALL IN MINNEAPOLIs.
The Season to Open in the Flour
City To-Day.

To be in line with the general run of
Minneapolis hoodoo luck, it was neces-
sary for it to rain yesterday morning
and remain damp and disagreeable the
rest of the day, so that no base ball
could be played. The Milwaukee men
were on hand bright and early, but they
couldn't play, as the fateS were against
the home club. 1t made Ezra Sutton
look sick as he saw there was no chance
for his poor Cream City aggregation to
distinguish itself and put Harry Quin
in good humor by struggling out of the
mire at the bottom of the hill.

The outlook made everybody feel
little careworn and woebegone because
nearly everybody had been counting on
being on hand to do little yelling when
the Minneapolis team made its cham
pionShip debut on the new grounds. 1t
was impossible to play, however, as the
rain hau made the grounds too soft and
the new clay which constituted the dia
mond was as sticky as pot of glue.

clay" sighed the contractor. Provided
the weather is in an agreeable frame OF

He hasn't proven just the thing, and

until. according to himself, "my people

Keogan is still at work in the GYM
naSium and getting in better condition
every day. 1t will take some time. how
ever. before his arm is fully strong
enough to do active work. He will be
put to work as soon as Manager Morton
thinks he is in shape. Base ball men
are all anxious to see Keogan in the box
again. as they know he is irst-elasS

Hauled Over the Goals.

CHICAGO, May 15.-At the meeting
to-day of the managers of the Inter
state Commerce Railway association
Chairman Walker reported that the
Chicago & North western, the Chicago.
Milwaukee & st. Paul, the Rock Island
and the Wisconsin Central were all
guilty of manipulating rates on coke
and coal, contrary to the inter
state law. The representatives of the
accused roads claimed that they were
only carrying out certain deals made
before the association was organized.
The meeting referred the matter to the
executive board for action. Chairman
Walker exonerated the st. Paul road
from any blame IN the Armour con-
tract allowing one cent mile Oh re-
friyeratOr cars.
