AN OUTSIDE COMMISSION.

The announcement that the Preside mt
has decided to appoint a Mr.. ROBINSON, OF
Indiana, to the place in the Utah commits
sion made vacant by the transfer Of Mr..
THOMAS to the governorship, is pleasing
news to the great majority of the people of
Utah. Little, if anything, is known here
concerning the gentleman named. He is a
Republican of prominence and is a personal
friend of the Presidents. The latter has
said that he was exceedingly DESTROYS OF
putting into the federal offices in this terri
tory wise and conservative men, who would
perform their duties in way to harmonic
the conflicting elements, and maintain
peace in the community. 1t is natural to
assume that President HARRISON regards
Mr.. ROBINSON as the right kind of a man
for the place, and we hope the Presidents
estimate is a correct one.
But the suggestion that is most pleasing
in the announcement is the indication that
the President proposes to depart from the
rule as to the appointment of bona fide
citizens to local Offices, and will
make up the commission with gentle
men from the states. BY odds the
444OoS ltlLLI pOoAIlOLS III u belll JllC
commissionerships. All the election ma
chinery is under the immediate control of
the five men comprising the board; hence
it may almost be said that the rule of the
territory is virtually in their hands. True
there are laws for the regulation and con
troll of the commission, but we all know
how easy it is for officials who are so dis
pc"ed to get around laws which stand in
the way of what they want to accomplish
We can all recall how in the early days of
the Utah commission, the laws were con-
strued to mean not what they said, but
what the board thought they should have
said. We can also cite Instances when
great pressure has been brought to bear
to induce the commission to almost set the
laws aside and make rules and regulations
which would have disfranchised twO-thirds
of the voters, and given the entire control
of the territory into the hands of an insig
nifcant and INSCRIPTIONS minority. 1t is
also stating only the truth to say there
were men on the commission who were
disposed to yield to the pressure
referred to, and perpetrate a great
outrage on the community. Some
of the men who tried to induce the
board to engage in the high-handed pro-
ceedings have been mentioned as fit per-
sons to sit in the commission, and WELD the
immense and hitherto unexampled power
conferred on the board. If local citizens
were appointed to these places, in all likeli-
hood some of the very men who have urged
the commission TO outrage justice and dis
regard the law, would be among those
chosen, when they would not hesitate to
do that which they failed to induce others
TO undertake.
1t would not be difficult matter to form

1T MAKES A DIFFERENCE.

Until year ago there lived in Michigan
q Colonel NEwcoMB CLARK, who was
wealthy and had a liking for party politics
of the Republican variety. Being some
thing of an orator he was active and promi-
nent in campaigns. As a waiver of the
bloody shirt and rabid denunciatOr of the
white men of the south who trampled on
the rights of the black men of that section
he was what might be called a bowling sue
cess. In fact, if he eXcelled in anything it
was as the champion of the colOred man and
brother who had been freed by the grand
old party.
About year ago, to escape the rigorous
winters of the north the colonel removed
with his family to Ocean Springs, MINI,
where his wealth and intelligence at
once made him a prominent mem
Der of society, and leader
in the thriving little community
Soon after the Inauguration of HARRISON
colored man was appointed postmaster at
Ocean Springs, on the recommendation of
ex-Congressman LYNCH, also colored, and
the negro is said to be honest, competent,
accommodating and gentlemanly. But he
is d negro, and last month the spectacle was
presented of Colonel CLARK appearing in
Washington clamoring for the removal of
the postmaster He would say nothing
against the character of the man, which
was above reproach, and based his appeal
for removal solely on the fact that the post
master was 4 negro. He said that it ''hurt
the town. TO have a black man for post
master, and that mo white man wanted his
mail handed to MIN by negro, while his
retention would be particularly offensive to
the ladies of the community
The change of heart that has come over
CLARK is not the only popularity Of the
case. CLARKsON, the assistant postmaster
general, is one of the most vigorous haters
Of the white South, and as a waiver of the
CORY garment has few equals in the coun-
try, yet it is related that CLARK presented
the case so strongly to him that he prom
ised to remove the colored postmaster and
appoint a white man.
This incident is only one of a series being
recorded all the time. The Republican fan
atics of the North insist that negro rule is
right for the South, and when the ex-slave-
owners protest and assert that the white
man cannot be dominated by the black one,
your northern Republican ranter viii
howl about disloyalty, denial of rights,
shotgun politics and so on. But the same
bowler will roar louder than anybody when
it is proposed to subject him to the negro
rule which he would impose upon others.

OPINIONS,

The following expressions of editorial
opinion are interesting, if nothing more
Comment is unnecessary, the paragraphs
being grouped. The first is from the
Philadelphia american, Republican organ
which hates the south and the MormOns
with equal intensity:
almost since the close Of the war the
missionaries ofithe Church of the Latter
day Saints have been PROSECUTING among
the poor whites of the southern states
and with a very large degree of success
Mormon liberalism fits exactly into the
idea of the Bible which prevails in this
social stratum, when they have any at all
and their ignorance fits them to be the
tools of the apostles as they long have
been of the fire eaters If the south had
educated her people, or if she would now
educate them, they would not be the easy
prey of fanatic purveyors for polygamous
colony. Communities of American people
seldom are fields which the Mormon mis-
sionaries find it worth while to work in
they seek out those exceptional localities
where equation is scanty and intelligence
dim"
This is the confession of the Boston
Herald, the editor of which has love for
neither the South nor the Mormons OF
course he did not know that his confession
would be made to do duty as an argument
against the assertions of his Philadelphia
brother:
SIT is not welcome to New Englanders to
have it thrown in their faces that Massa-
chusetts contains more illiterates in pro-
portion to number of inhabitants than any
other American commonwealth
And this is from the Alexandria (Va.)
Gazette, the editor of which loves the South,
and would think more of the North ifuits
editors and politicians were not so unjust
and unreasonable in their hates: -
The census returns show that nearly all
th native Mormons of Utah came from the
North. In the North, too, divorce, the
worst sort of poygamy, has almost become
the rule instead of the exception, while in
the South it continues to be so rare as to be
wonderful. South-hating leads its votaries
into grotesque errors.n

IT Is estimated by the Paris financiers
that the loss to France by the failure of the
Panama Canal company and the collapse of
the copper syndicate will aggregate more
than three hundred million dollars The
French credit has not been affected by this
great loss, nor has there occurred a serious
panic. 1t is doubted that there is another
people on earth that could suffer such a
disaster and IA'event disturbance of all
her finances. The French are the most
wonderful people in the world in financial
affairs 1t was thought when Germany
demanded an enormous war indemnity that
France would be crippled for decades, but
the money was raised and paid with ease,
and when the debt was cancelled the
French were still rich and prosperous, and
in condition to have paid second in
demnity without grievous embarrassment.
All other peoples can learn from the French
how to make and save money.

ITEMS AT FORT DOUGLAS.
The Boys Want Their Pay-A Fort Officer Al'
pointed Professor.

The boys at Fort Douglas are growing
because the paymaster went to Fort Du
Chesne to pay that fort before paying
out Uncle Sans money at the fort. They
don't understand why they are left. Are
they right.
The preparatory drills for target prac-
tice are in progress at Fort Douglas. Any
person interested in craftsmanship can see
the very latest kink in such matters any
morning from to 9.
Lieutenant B. B. Buck, Sixteenth infan-
try, stationed at Fort Douglas, has been
appointed professor of military science at
the university of the state of Missouri.
Lieutenant Buck is distinguished rifle
shot in the army, having won a number of
handsome medals in military competitions.
Tourists can obtain good Photographic
views of Fort Douglas and the valley from
Lieutenant Nichols, the amateur photo
grapher at the post. Lieutenant Nichols is
a son of the celebrated New York chemist
and physician.

PRISON LABOR.

Nothing more should be needed to prove
the folly of supporting prisoners in idleness
than the experience of New York. In that
state the confined criminals were so well
employed that the prisons were not only
disappearing, but were getting to be a
source of revenue. The inmates were COM
PEELED TO work and their labor was made
profitable by the selection of such employ
ments as most money could be made from.
Not only this, but the prisoners were
healthy by reason of the enforced activity
of mind and body. Finally the matter was
taken into politics, the workingmen de
handing that prison labor be not brought
into competition with them. The dema-
gogue legislators feared to offend the vOt-
ers and passed a bill forbidding the employ
ment of convicts The law has been in
operation long enough to show that in
stead OF being self-supporting the prisons
will cost the state fully 100000 a year.
Another serious evil has been brought on
by the statute. In six months the increase
in insanity among the prisoners has been
Hyper cent. which is chargeable to the con-
tinued idleness of the cOnvicts, vino with
nothing to occupy their minds or hands,
brood over their unhappy condition. The
general health of the prisoners has also ma
terially decreased.
It does not appear that the condition of
the workingmen has been improved by the
change. 1t cannot be shown how it viii
help the great New York community to
spend half million dollars year to feed,
pay all the costs for the support and care
of themselves if they were permitted to do
so. Workingmen have lot to learn before
thew will be wise and reasonable in this
matter of prison labor.
