LABOR DAY.

On September I'd next, those who earn
their bread by the sweat of their brows
have a day of relaxation, one that is gen.
orally acceded to them by all classes and
conditions of society throughout the United
States. 1t is deserving of general recogni-
ton, for the reason that mankind as class
is drifting too far in the direction of I'M
recognized intermission from toll and care
We are all plunging forward at giddy
pace in the hope of COMPRISING too great
profits in too small compass, and the fact
that a day is set apart out of all the cal
endar in which the tyranny we impose
upon ourselves and our fellows may be set
aside for the time being, is healthful, bene-
fetal and proper.
1t is especially gratifying to know that
the organized laborers, artisans and me
chanics of this city will observe Labor
Day. In point of proportionate num-
bers, intelligence and arrangement,
there are none in the country who surpass
them. OF course it does not need holiday
or any kind of special occasion to remind US
of the fact that they are the pillars of
society everywhere, and yet such occasions
and the displays that are made are useful,
as well as ornamental, in that at such times
we are also reminded that occupation must
have its relaxation to be at its best
On the day above mentioned the working
people of this city will have good, enjoy
able season of repose, blended with health
full and rational amusements. They will
have grand procession here aid in Ogden
simultaneously, all the different crafts be-
ing represented; after this they will pro
coed by train to Lake Park, and indulge in
sports, pastimes and general enjoyment.
In the evening, pyrotechnic displays on the
lake will be the order, chief among the
representations being mammoth produc-
ton eight feet high, of the figure s,
this of course symbolizing the popular
clamor now so nearly answered throughout
the land of eight hours work and no more
for day.
We were not born to toll exclusively.
Providence meant that pleasure and plod-
ding should succeed each other even if they
did not join in the procession, commencing
at the cradle and ending with the grave.
The tears that are shed should be now and
then those of laughter, not always those OF
grief All things in nature should be vari-
gated; the murmurs of the storm and
the reposeful quiet of the calm are each
more enjoyable because of the other. So
with the seasons and so it should be with
social life. Work in the season thereof
and play when it is time for playing The
former should not be carried on to the
extent of drudgery from day to day, nor
the latter so far as to make US enervated
and our pleasures tasteless; but a reason
able commingling is the thing desired, and
in the observation of Labor Day and in the
occasion itself, we find much to be gratif ed
for, since it shows proper demand for
recognition on one side and the recognition
itself on the other

The TROUBLE ACROSS THE WATER.

Prince BISMARCK is a great man as the
world goes, but his greatness has caused
him too often to look upon himself and the
fatherland as immovable quantities in the
makeup of the European situation. He
sometimes receives a check which is graft
flying to democratic peoples however IN
sayory it may be t. him. His latest design,
out of which he hoped to make still more
solid and enduring the alliance fabric begun
year or so ago, has not expanded to the
proportions nor in the manner that he
hoped, for The simple reason that ALExAN-
DER III, of Russia, is more wary thanit was
supposed he would be. 1t all looked finely
for while, and the iron chancellor thought
he had the fly in his web sure. 1t seems
that the Gar took sober second thought
on the subject and said to himself, What
is there in all this for mes" AS soon as the
chief of all the Muscovites ascertains that
anv kind of political pudding contains no
ulums for him and his dynasty, it is useless
to present the case further, he will have
none of it. In this he takes after his father
and all his predecessors back to old VLADI-
MIR himself. who is described by historians
as pretty decent SORT of ruler.
What BISMARCK was after this time was
to get Russia in with Germany and AUS
tria. and thus form an alliance whose power
would be unquestioned and undisputed
throughout the length and breadth OF Eu-
rope. FRANCIS JOSEPH, always amlab e

so FAR GOOD.

It is fair and timely circular which the
Utah commission has issued regarding the
municipal election next February. The
commission evidently desires that the
election shall be honestly conducted, and
while the sympathies of the commissioners
may be all on the side of the Liberals, the
circular indicates spirit of fairness
which is commendable and which is to be
hoped will be maintained until the coming
contest has been decided and the victory
accorded to the lawful winners. Especially
timely is the suggestion that thorough
revision of the registration lists be made.
At present the list is little or no guide to
the voting strength of the city. 1t con-
tains hundreds of names of the dead and of
persons who have removed, and it is also
believed of men who never had legal
residence in the city. With such list the
opportunities for fraud are i'm
mense. Shrewd and unprincipled party
managers, in spite of the most Wig
liant watchfulness on the part of
the opposition could so manipulate
things as to make the votes
cast represent anything but an expression
of the popular will With a live registra-
ton list crookedness can be reduced to the
narrowest possible limits. Then the
majority party has only itself to blame if
defeat befall it. Another excellent sugges
ton contained in the circular is that the
number and street of the voters residence
be given in each instance. This will make
it possible to "locate'' those whose names
are on the list, and will put stop to the
listing of straw men. 1t will also prevent
colonizing should thing be attempted, and
there will be no occasion to register railroad
employees whose homes are on the cars,
nor to list travellers andH who
sojourn day or two at the hotels.
The HERALD desires only fair and
honest election, and that the victory will
