Der was caused by sort of strike in our
own party. A large number of democrats
thought the territory had remained out of
the sisterhood of states long enough. and
they held the democratic party responsible.
Now that the democrats have passed the
bill, taking IN the new states, these demo
Gratis will undoubtedly come back to the
fold, and there are more than enough to
overcome the 5000 republican majority of
last fall. Yes, there will be good deal of
politics In Montana during the next six
months, and both parties will make a des-
perate fight to carry the state.''
One has to possess lots of courage to be-
lieve that the democrats can carry Mon
tana so soon after.the Overwhelming vic
tJryof last year. 1t doesn't seem proba-
bic, and yet it is encouraging to hear Mr..
TooLE talk as he does and give a reason for
the hope that he entertains. 1t is his kind
of pluck which wins, and we hope it will
get there" on this occasion. At any rate.
the democrats of Montana owe it to Mr..
TooLE to make him their candidate for
governor. If any member of the party can
win he is the man, and defeat will be no
discredit to him

THE "ADDTTIONS.n

The reason why the additions TO Salt
Lake City do not grow and thrive as their
owners think they should, is found without
much search. We are told that the Kansas
City, the Omaha, the Los Angeles and the
Denver additions" have gone rapidly, PEG
pie being eager to purchase lots in them
while here the addition is a thing of
slow growth and development. 1t seem
ingly does not occur to the grumblers that
the land OF the city proper has only
just begun to be built upon. Salt
Lake was plated as city
OF gardens, the land, instead of being laid
off in building lots, having been divided
into lots large enough to give the owner
room for gardening and farming purposes.
An acre and quarter would make q good
many lots in Omaha, Denver or the other
cities named. Instead Of a frontage of
twenty-five or fifty feet, our lots have a
frontage of 165 or 800 feet, and correspond
ing depth, instead of 100 feet, which is the
average depth OF city lots. Salt Lake
covers twenty-five or thirty miles of terri
tory-land enough for $50, 900 inhabitants, if
settled as closely as people are in the aver
age city.
The reason that people do not rush to ad-
ditions is because there is so much vacant
land in the centre of town. Less than a
block from the very heart Of the city they
are growing garden truck" and within
two squares Of the most valuable part Of
the chief street there is unoccupied land
enough On which to build houses for $4,000
people. The older inhabitants did not like
to be crowded; they wanted plenty of
room, and never took,kindly to crowding
The new corners are different. They bring
with them the idea prevalent in
other cities, which is that land
should be occupied to make it valuable, and
that dirt in the centre Of the city is worth
too much to be given up to the growing Of
carrots and cabbages. The disposition is to
crowd together, as is seen in the building
of residences in the heart of the city, and
the cutting Of lots into pieces merely large
enough for dwelling houses. In other
words the central district is building up
much faster than those on the outside,
while the additions attract very little at
tention. There is much ground to be COW
cred before there will occur the crowding
which we witness elsewhere, and which in
duces rush to the suburbs and additions"

zHE METHODIST UNIVERSITY.

There is disposition on the part of some
of our citizens to grieVe over what they
esteem very great loss in the location OF
the proposed Methodist university at Og-
den instead of Salt Lake. The institution
might have been of some benefit to this
city, but it will be conceded by intelligent
people generally who are famil Liar with the
situation that the boards decision is more
against the university than against Salt
Lake City This is the population and com
mercial centre Of Utah and of the inter
mountain region, and there isn't enough
power in politics. money and favoritism
combined to change the conditions. Vii
lagos may grow into towns and towns into
cities, but Salt Lake will keep on spreading
and increasing at such pace as ID lead.
Circumstances and conditions may tempo
rarily or permanently help other places,
but this city will move forward steadily
and certainly, whatever may be done to-
wards its hnderance or for the advantage Of
anothercity. The Methodist university in
Salt Lake would have been something of an
attraction, but entirely too much import
ance was attached to it by our citizens.
Located anywhere within the city
limits it would not have increased the
selling value of city property as much
as the building cost. Located in one Of the
suburbs or additions, it would hape helped
the immediate vicinity some, but the city
generally would have experienced but in
significant benefit from it. The loss to the
university by taking it to Ogden will
naturally and necessarily be considerable,
1t cannot be expected that the institution
will be patronized from Salt Lake, which
has and always will have better schools
than the one to be established. Had the
university been here Salt Lake students
would have attended, and Salt Lake will
continue to furnish more students than
any other city between Denver and San
Francisco. That these will not go to Ogden
to school, may be set down as absolutely
certain. ...-
Looking at this matter impartially and
disinterestedly, THE HERALD thinks the
Methodists and not Salt Lakers have more
occasion to regret Bishop WARREN's de-
cision.

CHANGE THE DAY.

The drilling rain and cold, disagreeable
day in which the ceremonies of the inaugur-
alton of the president of the United States
had to take place on Monday, and which is
generally the case on that occasion, natur-
ally suggests the question why is it that the
time of Inauguration is not changed to some
day giving promise of more sunny skies,
and consequently insuring more pleasure
and satisfaction to those participating in
these Cerem Onies. which in later generations
have grown to be quite gorgeous affairs !.
WASHINGTON was inaugurated on the Both
day of April, 1889, and then was practically
begun the existence of our national career,
and it would be a date marking
a never-to- be-forgotten epoch in Amer
lean history-the commencement of our
constitutional existence. The present &C.
casion would have been propitious for
making the innovation, since it is the com
mencement of the second century Of our
real national being. Moreover. if Ithe Both
of April were adopted as inauguration day
it would extend the sessions of our short
congresses by two months, besides giving
promise of more pleasant weather for the
ceremonies of the occasion. Twice has the
senate proposed a constitutional amend
ment making the change, but twice has it
failed in the house. The uniform destruc-
ton of splendid decoration ceremony for
the next one hundred years may change
the sentiment of the country on the ques-

CONTEMPTIBLE.

! That was low down insinuation that
Representative CANNON, of Illinois, made in
the house respecting Col DANIEL LAMONT,
private secretary to late President CLEvE
LAND. 1t was during the consideration by
the house of the item appropriating 5000
to be added to the private secretary's
salary. While the matter was under con
sideration Mr.. SAVERS, of Texas, read a
letter which Mr.. SCoTT, of Pennsylvania,
had received from Col LAMONT stating that
when he accepted the position of private
secretary to the president he had done so
with full knowledge OF the pay attach
ing to it. He preferred not TO
be the beneficiary OF retroactive legis-
lation; and he therefore asked that the
committee recede from its amendment to
the deficiency appropriation bill, appropria-
ating $1,000 for his benefit. That was a
manly, graceful act, exhibiting soul above
the sOrdid disposition of our times. Every
man who honors unseltish nobility would
respect Colonel LAMONT for his act. But
mark what follows: When Mr.. SAVERS
asked leave to strike out the amendment
Mr. CANNON asked if the president had paid
out of his own pocket enough to make up
the salary. Mr.. SAVERS said he knew
nothing about that. ''Then l will not
ASK said Mr.. CANNON, whether or not it
was arranged that the gentleman from
(N1r. ScoTT) should insist
upon this appropriation in order to give a
chance for the writing of the letter which
has Just been read.''
The mind that could make such base in
situation as that would be mean enough TO
resort to such disreputable methods to &C
quire public applause, but we doubt very
much if there is another man living, in pub
life, that would do it.

MONTANA DEMOCRATS.

Ex-Delegate TooLE, of Montana, is a
democrat of the proper sort. He is a
democrat at all times and under all circum-
stances. and nothing can turn or discourage
him. One Of the most effective speeches
delivered in the last congress was one by
Mr.. TooLE a few weeks ago, in which he
arraigned his party and the administration
fCr pursuing a course that had made the
territories republican in spite of their
democratic leanings. He showed how
Montana and Washington had been lost
TO the party through the mulishness
of the democrats in congress denying them
local self-government, and how the presi
dent had made matters worse by imposing
upon the people as officials, fore On ers'' and
CARPET baggers The speech attracted the
attention of the nation. and was one of the
forcible arguments which induced the ad-
mission into the union of the territories
named. If all democrats were like Mr.
TooLR no one would ask how the party
stood on this question or that; everybody
would know that the party was demo
cratic as to everything, and policy as to
nothing.
The ex-delegate has been expressing his
oninion as to the political outlook in the
coming state of Montana, and notwith-
standing the terrible defeat of November
he thinks the democrats have good fight
ing chance for redeeming themselves. He
saws they are not discouraged, and that

ELIZABETH, n. J., April 30.-On the 23d
Of April, 17S9 General Washington ar
rived here (the place was then called
Elizabethtown), after a tedious journey OF
six days. from Washington. One hum
dred years later, yesterday morning, Pres
ilent Harrison made the trip, surrounded
by all the luxuries and ease Of Pullman

The people Of the city were early astir,
and crowded the Union Depot and streets
along the route to Governor Green's resi-
dence, where President Harrison was to
take breakfast
At 7:25 a. m. the presidential train
drew slowly into the depot. President
Harrison, who, with his family, occupied
the last car, was the first person
to step from the rear platform,
quickly followed by Mrs. Harrison.
President Harrison's appearance was at
once the occasion Of prolonged shout Of
welcome from thousands Of people in
the vicinity. Carriages were in waiting,
and in a moment the President and FAM
